Bumper festival

isiting country music fans expecting Horsham Country Music Festival to continue into the future are already booking their accommodation for next year.

Festival co-ordinator Lyall Wheaton confirmed many people were pencilling in a 2020 date despite a lack of any group or individuals coming forward to take control of the event. “There are many visitors who were so delighted in this year’s bumper final festival that they have already booked accommodation fully expecting it to continue,” he said. “I can understand their reasoning. The weekend attractions exceeded all our expectations. “We had record attendances at every event, with more than 1000 people spilling out of Sawyer Park on Saturday night alone.” Horsham Country Music Association announced last year that this year’s festival would be its last because work had become too much for an elderly organising committee. It has since been trying to find someone to hand over the reins. Horsham mayor Mark Radford, concerned about the municipality losing the socio-economic benefits of the festival, appealed last week for people to analyse and assess its value. He suggested a post-festival community meeting might be appropriate to gauge interest. Mr Wheaton said there was little doubt the four-day festival had been a major winner in attracting people to Horsham. “On Saturday night in particular there were a lot of people around and a wonderful atmosphere,” he said. “Without knowing the exact figures, we had about 700 at the soundshell on the Thursday night, 900 on the Friday night and well over 1000 on the Saturday night. Even on Sunday, the last day, we had 650 to 700 and then three evening dinner-show venues were full.

“People came from absolutely everywhere – we think about a third came from South Australia and we also had people from NSW and Queensland, as well as Victoria. “We don’t know how much money that meant for Horsham, perhaps hundreds of thousands of dollars. “It’s difficult to estimate the value, but we know seven or eight motels were full, both caravan parks were chockers and caravans at Horsham Showground were at capacity. “It’s important to note how community-friendly and relaxed the whole event is. “For example, despite more than 1000 people in one place on the Saturday night, there were of course no incidents involving alcohol or unacceptable behaviour. That is something we proudly hang our hat on.”

Continue?

Mr Wheaton said considering the weekend events were such a success it would be disappointing if it closed the door on similar festivals in the future. “People were saying they like the size and environment of the venue, the stage set-up and sound quality,” he said. “What’s clear in this is that the soundshell and Sawyer Park are wonderful assets.” Mr Wheaton said the association would provide and support any group in a transition of operation. “We can assist in running the event, but we would very much advocate that it continue in a similar format as a traditional country celebration,” he said. “Supporters have voted with their feet along these lines for 13 years.” Mr Wheaton said what was also obvious at the weekend was how valuable the festival’s autumn schedule was on the country-music circuit.

Call for action on regional crime

atest crime statistics placing Horsham in the top five municipalities for recorded offences per head of population has prompted a call for government action.

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy said new Victorian Crime Statistics Agency figures showed recorded offences in the Wimmera’s centre rose 26.24 percent in 2018 from 2393 to 3021. She said figures had also risen sharply, by 22.5 percent, in Southern Grampians Shire. Ms Kealy said the data showed there had been a worrying trend of increased crimes ‘against the person’ – the highest quarterly result for the

category. “In the category of possession of methylamphetamine, ice, offences are up 16 percent for the last 12 months and 132.2 percent since the election of the Andrews Labor government,” she said. “Of most concern is that 15 to 19-year-olds are the largest cohort for crimes against the person, and drug use and possession across Victoria is up 12.3 percent from last year. “The over representation of the 15 to 19-year-old cohort in violent crimes against the person and its relationship with the increase in drug use and possession is a public policy area that requires urgent attention. “If we don’t take urgent remedial action now, this cohort will become

more hardened and violent criminals in later years.” Wimmera police Superintendent Paul Margetts said he believed much of the increased crime reporting was the result of preventative police work. “One of the major influences on figures can be justice procedural matters such as breaches of bail and intervention orders, or breaches of personal safety notices and registered sexoffender supervision orders,” he said. “All are reported as crimes, similar to theft or assault, and are major drivers in producing crime figures. “We now have a family-violence team, specialist investigators and new teams in place to work on compliance with registered sex offenders.

“From a police perspective much of the increase in crime reporting is coming from police fulfilling obligations.” Ms Kealy acknowledged Superintendent Margetts’ position, adding she believed Wimmera police were performing strongly – despite a lack of resources. But she said the data remained compelling, especially in relation to a rise in crimes against the person in the past 12 months. “Our hard-working police do a fantastic job with the resources at hand, but Premier Daniel Andrews has watered down bail laws, weakened sentencing and failed to equip our regional police with adequate resources to protect our streets, putting the lives

and safety of all Victorians at risk,” she said. Ms Kealy said an incident on the Western Highway in Stawell on Monday night highlighted how police services were under-resourced in the region. “We had a situation involving an individual pedestrian who was behaving erratically and creating a hazardous situation on the highway,” she said. “Police had to come from Ararat to respond because at the time there were no officers in Stawell. “This person could have walked into the traffic or caused an accident. “Luckily nothing happened, but you can’t help but feel for police when they don’t have necessary resources.”

Bumper event From page 1 “There are other town councils, some that had representatives there at the weekend including Hamilton, looking for their own opportunity to establishing a country weekend. They are keen to fill a gap in the calendar,” Mr Wheaton said. “We have a terrific time slot at the moment. A fortnight before us is a festival at Mt Gambier and then a week before us is one at Terang. “There is not a lot of vacant time at the right time of the year.” Mr Wheaton said Horsham councillor Pam Clarke, heavily involved in the festival formation a decade ago, spoke to a crowd and mayor Cr Radford attended Sunday festivities. “The artists who performed were also fantastic,” he said. “We picked the best from the previous 12 years and most went an extra mile to make the event special.” • Pictures, page 19.

Highway work Municipal leaders have welcomed the recommencement of work on a Western Highway dual-carriageway project. Northern Grampians mayor Kevin Erwin said the project would ultimately have a positive impact on the regional community. “It’s pleasing to see the works recommence after a lengthy delay,” he said. “We’ve seen the safety benefits and efficiencies from the already duplicated section of the Western Highway, and it’s pleasing to see that the Buangor to Ararat section will be completed in the next couple of years.”

By A Thread team shares circus skills Regional secondary school students have had a rare opportunity to attend a workshop by some of Australia’s best circus artists. Cast of ‘By a Thread’ ran a circus and acro-dance workshop for years eight, nine and VCE dance classes in Horsham yesterday. Students learned acrobatic and circus skills such as handstands, group

balances, juggling, diabolo and rope tricks. VCE dance teacher Amy Anselmi said students were excited to work with the performers, who will be hoisted and swung across Horsham Town Hall’s stage tonight in their live circus show. “We don’t really teach anything like this in our classes,” she said.

“Hopefully we will see some of the skills they have learned in their choreography later in the year.” Production ‘By A Thread’, involving seven aerial acrobats and a length of rope, features a diverse cast ranging from street buskers to dancers who will perform counterweight acrobatics. The show uses a 30-metre-long

rope, tying together ‘the give and take’ of everyday relationships with the physical movement of cast members on stage. People can buy tickets for tonight’s 8pm show at Horsham Town Hall Theatre. Bookings can also be made online at www.horshamtownhall.com.au.

New owners to forge ahead

ew owners of Horsham Lawnmower Centre will build on a solid reputation and continue to provide outstanding service to a faithful Wimmerawide clientele.

Horsham couple Phil and Mirella Butsch, with children Chloe, 8, and Lucy, 5, are excited to take over the well-known O’Callaghans Parade small business and continue a familystyle operation. Brian and Leonie Bird ran the business for 31 years and the Butch family intend to not only maintain the decades of high-quality service and products, but also improve and add their own professional touch. Phil is well known across the Wimmera for his determined and elite approach on the footy field, as well as being affable, and is adapting the same philosophy to the business. “While we hope to build on the solid foundation set up by the Birds, we’re also keen to establish Horsham Lawnmower Centre as the obvious place for people to come for their small-engine needs,” Phil said. “We still have Greg Mackley, a mechanic with more than 40 years of experience in the small-engine industry, on board. “The reality is, and everyone knows it, that there’s not much Greg doesn’t know about small engines.” Phil said a need for small-engine knowhow was as strong as it had ever been across the Wimmera and with an increase in products and general knowledge, people were becoming more discerning in their purchases.

NEW VENTURE: Mechanic Greg Mackley, with new owners Lucy, Chloe, Mirella and Phil Butsch and Astro the dog at Horsham Lawn Mower Centre. Pictures: PAUL CARRACHER “That’s why we stock such reputable brands as Husqvarna, Masport, Victa, Briggs and Stratton, Spitwater, Atom and Rover,” he said. “There is such a broad range of products on the market and a machine pretty much available for every job.

What we’re stocking is of the highest quality and that equates to reliability. And what we’re noticing is that’s what people want. “Our product range includes ride-on mowers, push mowers, cylinder mowers, chainsaws, log splitters, whipper

snippers, lawn edgers and blowers as well as consumables and spare parts for all makes and models. We can pretty much help with most things.” Horsham Lawnmower Centre is also conveniently placed on the edge of Horsham’s shopping heart at 8

O’Callaghans Parade, where customers can easily park and load or offload machines. People can get in touch with Horsham Lawnmower Centre by calling 5382 4120.

Lempriere grain trader shock Horsham solicitor and The Weekly Advertiser It’s The Law columnist Patrick Smith has provided insight into reports that grain trader Lempriere Grain has gone into voluntary administration. Mr Smith has provided insight into what developments mean for regional farmers involved with the trader and how the issue might unfold.

n Friday last week, grain trader Lempriere Grain went into voluntary administration.

This is alarming news for many Wimmera farmers who have had contracts to sell grain with the company. Lempriere Grain has a major office in Ballarat and has been selling grain

on behalf of Wimmera farmers since about 2003. The news of its voluntary administration has come as a shock to many. One Rupanyup farmer, who wishes to remain anonymous, said: “We’ve been delivering grain to Lempriere Grain for a good five years. Because they always paid well, we had no hesitation in dealing with them again last year. “I became very concerned when my grain broker called me last Thursday to tell me that Lempriere Grain was likely to be placed into voluntary administration. “They’re about a month overdue on a payment of almost $100,000. “I didn’t put all my grain through

Lempriere, and it wasn’t as much as other years, but it is still a great deal of money. We work all year to grow crops and then we don’t get paid. “We’ve got bills to pay; we’ve got loads of super coming for this year’s crop that needs to be paid for.” Lempriere Grain going into administration is worrying for Wimmera farmers who have outstanding contracts with the trader. The voluntary administration of Lempriere Grain will conclude in one of three ways. There is a slight possibility the company is returned to the directors’ control. However, this is unlikely. It is more likely that either a deed of company arrangement is approved by

creditors setting out how the company will pay all or part of its debts or the company is wound up and a liquidator is appointed. Regrettably, grain buyer insolvencies have hurt Wimmera growers many times before. In addition to growers not being paid for grain supplied, there are also stories about farmers being forced, by liquidators during previous grain buyer insolvencies, to repay money they had received for their grain. There is a possibility that a liquidator could seek to recover payments already made to growers. A liquidator appointed to Lempriere Grain might attempt to recover money under an Unfair Preference provisions

Rail response disappointing

MIXING IT UP: Members of Sans Nom, from left Dave McMaster, Karen Gebert, Brandi Galpin, Felix Cunningham, Akeyo Matsumoto and Chris Leskie are pictured during rehearsals in Horsham. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

New band promises something different A wave of interest in performing arts across the region has spurred a group of experienced Wimmera musicians to form a new and diverse band. The group, called Sans Nom, which translates to ‘no name’ in French, has been rehearsing for about nine months and is set to take its act across the region and beyond. It features former Rift front man and busy solo performer Dave McMaster, singer and former Horsham teacher Brandi Galpin and other experienced musicians in Karen Gebert, keyboards, Chris Leskie,

of the Corporations Act if Lempriere Grain has been trading while insolvent. However, there are ways farmers can avoid a court-ordered recovery or ‘claw-back’ of a payment. Growers should not comply with a request by the liquidator to repay a payment immediately. Instead, they should speak to a solicitor about their options to resist the request. While growers with contracts with Lempriere Grain will likely suffer the most from the buyer’s move into voluntary administration, the move will also likely have a flow-on effect to other businesses and individuals across the Wimmera. – Patrick Smith is a solicitor with O’Brien Lawyers, Horsham.

bass, violinist Akeyo Matsumoto and drummer Felix Cunningham. McMaster said the band performed an eclectic mix of music that he described as a ‘bit of gypsy jazz and folk into fiddle country’. “It’s all very different and we’re really keen,” he said. “It basically came out as an offshoot of Horsham Art Council’s production of Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. “We play everything from mellow harmonious pieces to up-tempo driving gypsy songs.”

McMaster, who has been either a solo performer or part of a Squashed Frogs duo for the past 15 years, said his motivation was to get back to regularly playing with other musicians. “We also wanted to challenge ourselves in playing unfamiliar genres,” he said. “Some of our songs, for example, are in French. “We’ve done a couple of gigs and dipped our toe in the water at Horsham German Fest and New Year’s Eve events.

“We’re going to be at Horsham’s Exchange Hotel on Saturday night and people can expect a real mix. “Because of the niche music we will be playing and such a big band with six members, we’re not sure about how often we’ll be playing and even what sort of shows we’ll be suited to. “But we’re having a dip at practice and setting and meeting challenges.” McMaster said people keen to find out more and get in touch could visit the Sans Nom Facebook page.

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy said she was ‘bitterly’ disappointed at a government position on a return of passenger rail services to Horsham and-or Hamilton. She said after she raised the issue in parliament Transport and Infrastructure Minister Jacinta Allan advised the government would not match a Liberal Nationals pre-election commitment to return rail to the region. “It is extremely disappointing that Labor has now confirmed it will not be returning passenger rail to western Victoria,” Ms Kealy said. “The return of passenger rail services to Horsham and Hamilton was a major commitment made by the Nationals during the election campaign and was emphatically supported by Lowan voters. “Our region needs and deserves better access to public transport services. “That’s why before the election the Liberal-Nationals committed to bring back passenger rail, undertaking a rail business case to get the best plan in place and expanding coach connections across our region. “Labor’s wilful neglect of public transport services in western Victoria is putting decentralisation plans back by decades, and local people are being treated as second-rate citizens. “I am again calling on Premier Daniel Andrews to make good on his commitment to ‘deliver for all Victorians’ by committing to bring back passenger rail services to Hamilton and Horsham and improving local coach connections.”

It’s OK to say NO Information Night Are you concerned about the drinking culture in our community? We are holding an information night for parents, teenagers and the Horsham community to start a conversation about the role of alcohol in our community.

The night will include: • A special video screening created by St Brigid’s College students focusing on alcohol issues in Horsham • Special Guest speaker, Alistair Mitchell (former Horsham resident and motivational speaker) • Information from local organisations including Horsham Police, VCGLR and Uniting Wimmera

Light supper will be provided. Our vision is to see more people socially supporting one another to reduce risky drinking, resulting in reduced harm for themselves, their family and friends, those in the vicinity and the broader community.

This event is being held on March 29 at Coughlin Park Community Centre at 6pm.

Labor enters into a Mallee duel T

he announcement of a Labor candidate for the federal electorate of Mallee represents a critical piece of a regional voting jigsaw puzzle. With National, Liberal, minor party and independent candidates having all put up their hands to contest the historically safe conservative seat, Labor had been the missing element. Now, as we track towards a federal election some time this year, people in the big north-western corner of the state at least have a broader choice on where to place their vote. Labor confirmed yesterday that former community-services worker Carole Hart from Maryborough would

be its Mallee representative. She followed fellow Labor candidate Maurice Billi of Stawell, who is standing for the seat of Wannon. Ms Hart comes into the role basing her platform on a ‘strong belief in social justice’ reflected through ‘access to health and education where and when it’s needed, secure jobs for workers and services to support people young and old’. She joins the Nationals’ Anne Webster, Liberal representative Serge Petrovich, Leigh Firman from the Science Party, Chris Lahy, Citizens Electoral Council, Rick Miller, Australia United Party and independents Ray Kingston, Cecilia Moar and Jason Modica on the ballot paper.

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson

The players on the board, keen to fill a vacancy left by retiring Nationals member Andrew Broad, now appear set and we wait with interest to see how people cast their vote. What is glaringly obvious with Ms Hart’s pre-selection is just how geographically large Mallee has become. This suggests people are likely, apart from following national ideologies and arguments, to base at least part of

their voting decision on a variety of unrelated home-town issues. Ms Hart is from Maryborough, which switched from Wannon to Mallee as part of last year’s electoral boundary changes, and by Victorian standards a long way from the key centres Horsham and Mildura. In fact everyone putting their hand up for the seat, whether in the Wimmera, Mallee, Mildura or Central Goldfields, are a long way from everywhere else. Many have spoken about a tyranny of distance being a severe representation disadvantage in Mallee. Regardless of assurances from all sorts of political leaders, the perception hovers over the electorate like a

slow-moving cloud. The most successful candidate for Mallee will be the person who can win over not only their own backyard, but also a variety of many distant backyards. History tells us that the Nationals’ Anne Webster is an obvious favourite – the seat is after all a conservative stronghold. We’re unsure how the election in our part of the world unfolds, be it for the seats of Mallee or Wannon. Minister Dan Tehan holds Wannon for the Liberals. Whoever wins either seat will have big jobs of overseeing much of Victoria’s rural heartland.

Money for auditorium refurbishment Ararat Arts Precinct users will be able to enjoy better amenities and a more comfortable theatre experience after funding from the Federal Government’s Building Better Regions Fund. Member for Wannon Dan Tehan said he was delighted $25,000 would go to refurbishing Ararat Town Hall auditorium

Wednesday, March 27, 2019

by providing 56 new seats in a balcony section. “Ararat has a thriving arts community and this funding completes the refurbishment of the auditorium,” he said. “The auditorium is a site of local social and historic significance, with the balcony especially representing a connection to the

original town hall auditorium. That’s why it is so important to see 56 seats in the balcony being replaced, so Ararat community can continue to enjoy this wonderful hub for the arts and live performance.” Ararat Rural City Council is managing an overall theatre refurbishment of $50,000.

Disability expo O

rganisers of a Wimmera Disability Expo in Horsham next week expect more than 200 people to attend the event.

The expo, at Horsham Church of Christ Community Centre in River Road, will feature a range of community and disability exhibits and a series of information sessions. The April 4 event will run from 10am to 3pm. Victorian Advocacy League for Individuals with Disability, VALID, is hosting the event with support from Wimmera Parent Support Network and a VALID Horsham Peer Ac-

tion Group. VALID family and events co-ordinator Christine Scott said the expo was free of charge and there was no need for people to register to attend. She said the expo was designed to help support people and families dealing with disabilities. Agencies that provided services to people participating in the National Disability Insurance Scheme would be exhibitors. These include agencies that provide community access, accommodation, day activities, continence, equipment, advocacy, training, employment and more.

“This expo is aimed at participants and their supporters in Horsham and surrounding areas, with their choice and control over the supports they receive,” she said. “We expect through our partners with direct participant and family organisations, that we will have 200 people and they will be those who are keen for a change. “These groups have requested the expo due to the lack of choice in rural areas, so they are looking to work with agencies who can provide alternatives.” There will be more than 40 exhibits at the expo.

A GLASS OR TWO: Guests enjoy a meal of regional fresh produce and wine at a ‘Longest Underground Lunch’ as part of Melbourne Food and Wine Festival. Seppelt Wines is eager to host Melbourne Food and Wine Festival again after a successful underground ‘feast’. Managing director Danial Ahchow said the ‘Longest Underground Lunch’, overseen by chef Katie Leeke, was ‘bound to be a success’. “We were absolutely rapt with the response we had to becoming a part of the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival, and ecstatic to bring the event to the Grampians,” he said.

Member for Mallee Andrew Broad believes people in his electorate will be among major winners with an increase to pension and allowance rates. He said increased payments, that started from March 20, would help pensioners and allowance recipients keep up with the cost of living. Mr Broad said pension payments including Age Pension, Disability Support Pension and Carer Payment had increased by $9.90 a fortnight to $926.20 for singles, and by $14.80 a fortnight to $1396.20 for couples combined. “Since we were first elected, the Age Pension has increased by $117.80 per fortnight for single pensioners and by $177.40 per fortnight for couples combined,” he said. Mr Broad said the increases had directly benefited more than 20,000 aged pensioners living in the Wimmera, Mallee and Mildura regions. He said individuals receiving Newstart Allowance, Widow Allowance and Sickness Allowance would benefit from an increase of $5.50 a fortnight to $564.50, including an Energy Supplement. Couples will see an increase of $5 a fortnight to $509.60 for each member, including Energy Supplement. The rate of Parenting Payment – Single – will increase by $7.60 to $788.10 a fortnight, including Pension Supplement and Energy Supplement. “Rent Assistance rates have also increased, as well as a range of income and assets limits for pensions and allowances. This includes higher limits to the income and assets tests for age pensioners,” Mr Broad said.

Autism awareness Horsham people have the opportunity to engage in a conversation about autism at Axis Employment in Horsham today. Daryl Giles and his son Daniel will present ‘From Diagnosis to OAM – A Personal Autism Journey’, discussing Daniel’s journey in having autism, from diagnosis to present day. The pair hope to provide people with a greater insight into the everyday lives of people on the autism spectrum, and will explore topics including diagnosis, school, independent living, employment and strategies used to achieve best outcomes. The presentation starts at 12.30pm. People can find further information and book tickets online at www.trybooking.com.

Stawell Hospital Auxiliary will present its annual Wine and Savoury Evening at Stawell Entertainment Centre on Friday. The auxiliary’s Ruth Hatton said the event, from 6.30pm, was popular and a great chance for people to socialise, enjoy tasty food provided by the auxiliary and wines from across the district. She said the auxiliary was always working to raise money to buy equipment for Stawell’s McPherson Smith Nursing Home and hospital. “Everyone is welcome to attend. Come along and enjoy a lovely evening,” she said. Mrs Hatton said tickets were $20 and available from her on 5358 4789 or 0437 277 953. Wednesday, March 27, 2019

Race en route for Stawell T

eams of four will race across Stawell in a free community event encouraging youth engagement and activity next month.

Organisers hope energy will run high on April 14 for Stawell’s first ‘Amazing Race’, where groups will complete team-building challenges at seven ‘pit-stops’ across town. Stawell librarian and organising member Sepe Illig said the upcoming event, which overlapped with both Youth Week and Active April, was created by and for young people. “A couple of years ago Stawell Library had a youth group come through doing work experience,” she said. “Part of what we did was brainstorm ideas for youth events that we could steer in the future. “One of those ideas was an amazing race and we are finally putting it into action two years later.” The competition, based on the television show of the same name, is open to all ages. Organisers are encouraging teams to dress up, with prizes for ‘best dressed group’ and ‘best group selfie’ among five prize categories on offer. Organisers have also invited young people to volunteer to help run the event. Ms Illig said offering prizes aimed to bring a fun and high-energy atmosphere to the event in an overall push for greater community involvement. “We try to put together programs and events that engage the wider community, and one group we like to focus on is our youth,” she said.

ON YOUR MARKS: From left, Joseph Martin, Rody Ika, Crystal Summers, Tegan Evans, Riley Ika and Zac Burnett get ready for the Stawell Amazing Race on Sunday April 14. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER “But it is covering other groups too. We hope participants get enjoyment from it first and foremost.” Although only in its first year, Ms Illig said the event, coinciding with similar community programs and a lead up to the Stawell Gift, could be a promising event for future years. “There has been mention about it happening again. Hopefully all goes successfully and we get the feedback we are looking for,” she said. “But it could not go ahead without our partners.

“Central Grampians LLEN is our major sponsor and we have attracted outside supporters such as GWMwater, who is supplying water and drinking bottles for participants.” Northern Grampians Shire Council, Arcadeon, Wimmera Regional Sports Assembly, Stawell Neighbourhood House, Aussie Kindies and Budja Budja Neighbourhood House are also involved. Northern Grampians councillor Karen Hyslop said because the Stawell Amazing Race would be during

school holidays, it was a perfect opportunity for families to get together and have fun while being active and enjoying the challenges on offer. “It’s also a great chance for clubs and community groups to team up, be active and social and take it as seriously, or as easy as they’d like,” she said. People eager to tie up their laces and get involved can register online at www.ngshire.vic.gov.au until 10am, April 12. Late registrations are also open on the day.

Powerline safety trial Horsham is part of a trial exploring a new way of inspecting the safety of powerlines. Electricity distributor Powercor is using Horsham and Winchelsea as subject areas for an investigation into the use of detailed photography, data algorithms and low-flying helicopters. This month a specialist inspection team has been flying above 1088 kilometres of powerlines in Horsham district and 288 kilometres of powerlines in Winchelsea taking aerial photos of more than 6000 poles. Powercor Head of Digital Luke Skinner said the trial would provide important insight into how aerial inspections could be used to reduce the cost to customers of keeping the network safe. “Our focus is on delivering safe and reliable power to customers and we are always investigating different ways we can inspect and maintain our network for the benefit of the community,” he said. The Powercor network covers more than 145,700 square kilometres in Victoria’s western region. “Traditionally, our ground crews inspect the powerlines, but this is time intensive, particularly when compared with the speed and distances a helicopter can travel,” Mr Skinner said. “By using a helicopter, our team is able to fly quickly along large stretches of poles and wires. “We can capture high-resolution imagery from helicopters and continue to train our computer vision algorithms to find irregularities while we progress with aerial photo research and development.”

Mobile service to lift in region New base stations are set to improve mobile phone coverage across the federal electorates of Mallee and Wannon after announcements under the fourth round of a government Mobile Black Spot Program. Member for Wannon Dan Tehan welcomed the announcement and said he was delighted with the outcome. He said Wannon had been successful in getting five of Victoria’s 32 new base stations in the latest round. “This brings the total to 21 base stations right across Wannon under the four rounds,” he said. “Communities in Wannon know how important our mobile phones are in keeping our businesses connected, helping our families and communities stay in touch. It’s also important to tourists visiting our communities. Under round-four allocations new base stations in Wannon will be on the Grampians Road between Halls Gap and Dunkeld – with a further

cell at Bellfield, Mooralla, Jancourt East and Mena Park. Mr Tehan said the Grampians Road and Bellfield mobile base stations would be welcomed by locals and visitors. “Not only will this address coverage issues for our locals, mobile coverage helps deliver the sort of visitor experience people expect in one of Victoria’s leading tourist locations,” he said. “The new Mooralla tower north of Cavendish builds on new mobile towers already at Culla, Pigeon Ponds and Nareen.” Mallee will receive nine new base stations at sites including Wilkur, Langkoop, Telopea Downs, Toolondo and Yanac. Others will be at Bealiba, a site on the Calder Highway and Glenloth East. Member for Mallee Andrew Broad said he expected base stations under the first three rounds to be operational by June 30 and the first round-four stations to be activated in the second half of the year.

United in support A

rarat municipal leaders have formally spoken of their remorse and support of affected people in the wake of the terror attack in Christchurch, New Zealand.

The council issued a media statement, reflecting on the thoughts of mayor Peter Beales, deputy mayor Jo Armstrong and chief executive Dr Tim Harrison. “On behalf of Ararat Rural City Council, we wish to extend our sympathies to the families, friends and faith communities affected by the shootings in Christchurch,” Dr Harrison said. “The hurt from this senseless act is great and extends far beyond those families and communities directly affected – it hurts us all, it diminishes us all and in some way, it changes the world for us all. “The thought of people being murdered while at worship is repugnant to fair-minded people everywhere and greatly saddens us.

“The hurt from this senseless act is great and extends far beyond those families and communities directly affected – it hurts us all, it diminishes us all and in some way, it changes the world for us all”

– Dr Tim Harrison

“Such events make us think of our own local Islamic community. “They are shocked and in pain over what has happened.” Cr Beales offered his support to all affected. “Our local Islamic community is very important to us,” he said. “They are a part of Ararat Rural City – they are our friends, neighbours and workmates. “I offer my sympathy, concern and ongoing support to them over the next days, weeks and months as they begin to recover from this terrible act.

“Ararat Rural City is a culturally inclusive community. “We welcome people from across the world and we will stand by our Islamic community during this time.” Cr Armstrong met with the municipality’s Islamic community last week and also offered her personal support. “Our local Islamic community is hurting and needs our friendship and compassion as it begins to recover from the horror of what has happened in Christchurch,” she said. “I encourage all of us to be mindful of what has happened and make sure we live our inclusive community values as we all recover from this terrible act. “I hope this can serve to make our community bonds stronger.” The council ended the statement with: ‘Ararat Rural Council truly values our capacity to welcome people from across the world regardless of culture or religion. This is a time that we need to demonstrate this in a very clear way to our Islamic community’.

Hart Labor’s candidate Long-time community services worker Carole Hart from Maryborough is Labor’s candidate for Mallee for the approaching 2019 Federal Election. Electoral boundary changes expanding Mallee to include Maryborough and Central Goldfields Shire helped open the door for Ms Hart’s candidacy. Ms Hart has worked in community services covering youth, homelessness and aged care in Melbourne and Darwin before returning to Maryborough several years ago. She is now a carer for her parents. A strong belief in social justice – access to health and education when and where it is needed, secure jobs for workers and services to support people, young and old – is at the core of Ms Hart’s decision to nominate for Mallee. Concern over consequences of climate change, challenges around water and protecting the environment for future generations are also issues Ms Hart believes Labor has strong policies on and is best placed to deal with these matters. She said she was looking forward

FIVE-DAY forecast

to meeting people and developing a better understanding of the unique needs of Mallee communities. Ms Hart said she was planning to spend a lot of time travelling across the vast expanses of Victoria’s largest federal electorate. “I would be honoured to represent the communities of Mallee in a Shorten Labor government,” she said. “A strong stable government is the best way to secure our future and that of our children and grandchildren.” Ms Hart said a background of working in community services had enabled her to develop an understanding of major issues facing people across all walks of life. She said growing up in a family where the needs of working people were paramount, and talk of politics and democracy a regular part of dinner table discussion, had developed her interest in politics from an early age. Ms Hart’s family has long-term connections in politics, going back to a relative who played a leading role in the votes for women campaign in the 1890s.

Clear recycling message a must

regional waste co-ordinating group has assured the community it is continuing to work with municipal councils to provide a clear message around what people can and can not recycle. Grampians Central West Waste and Resource Recovery Group executive officer La Vergne Lehmann said reducing contamination from recycled waste was a challenge. But it demanded attention to ensure better outcomes for recycling across the region. “If we are to improve our recycling rates we need a clear and concise message for residents,” she said. “This is because we know it has to be a simple process for people to decide whether an item goes into the recycling or rubbish bin at the time they are doing it.” Ms Lehmann stressed that reducing contamination rates in recycling was key to improving the recycling system in Australia and keeping recycling costs down for the community. She said making an effort to get recycling right and ‘get it sorted’ would lead to improve-

ments in reducing what went into landfill and the quality of our recycling. “The recent challenges with recycling in Victoria have highlighted not only why recycling is important, but also the need to improve our recycling habits,” she said. “Materials that we are able to recycle in our kerbside collections are mostly packaging materials that can be reprocessed into new packaging materials or other products – thus ensuring that material has more than one life. “Residents in most Victorian municipalities have been recycling for many years and the result has been a significant reduction in what we send to landfill. “It has also resulted in new businesses that have been able to use those recycled materials – but there are still many more opportunities. “It has been a constant challenge to continue educating our communities on recycling and how we want it presented in the recycling bin. “We know people receive a lot of information on so many issues these days that it is difficult to cut through with a clear recycling message.”

Community invite to North Park A community information session and barbecue at Stawell’s North Park at 6pm tomorrow will provide a chance for people to view plans for upcoming developments at the reserve and have input into the project. A presentation will include a layout of what is set to occur along with plans and elevations, with councillors, council staff and members of Stawell Recreation Advisory Group available to answer questions.

A project committee has been involved in the process since completion of a master plan in 2011. Project funding has so far included $700,000 from the State Government and $150,000 from Swifts Football and Netball Club. The council will also be contributing to the project, and has sought extra money from the Federal Government.

TRAIN AT HOME: From left, Eugene Read-Spinks, WestVic Academy’s Corey Saitta, Keelan Perry, Ararat mayor Peter Beales and Brad Saunders.

Opportunity for Ararat athletes Young elite sports people from Ararat district will be able to take part in essential training in the region rather than travel to larger centres as a result of a new partnership. FedUni’s WestVic Academy of Sport, Ararat Fitness Centre and Ararat Rural City Council have joined forces to help athletes reach their potential. Track and field athletes Keelan Perry, 14, and Eugene Read-Spinks, 16, and skateboarder Brad Saunders, 17, will be the first to benefit under the new partnership. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the partnership

meant participants would be able to pursue training programs in the district, saving time and money. He said Ballarat-based WestVic Academy provided programs that covered sporting elements such as strength and conditioning, fitness testing, skills training and education. Cr Harrison said Ararat Fitness Centre would help provide these programs through free use of the centre and access to personal trainers. “The partnership will greatly reduce the need for these upand-coming athletes to travel, something that can be a fi-

nancial burden and time constraint for sports people with potential,” he said. “We are really excited by what the program will mean for these athletes. Not only will it help Keelan, Brad and Eugene directly, but it also signals to young people in the local area that you don’t have to move to a major centre to reach your goals.” The academy runs programs for sports such as badminton, cycling and netball, and provides talent identification services to an even broader spectrum.

Council seeks project money N

orthern Grampians Mayor Kevin Erwin has asked the Federal Government to provide money in its next budget to support infrastructure projects in the shire.

Cr Erwin made the call after meeting Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack last week. He said projects discussed at a government roundtable gathering in Warrnambool were crucial in growing opportunities for the region, and included community sporting facilities and roads projects. “After meeting with the Deputy Prime Minister we expressed our disappointment that we missed out on funding for projects at Lord Nelson Park in St Arnaud and North Park in Stawell,” he said. “These projects are vital and much needed for the Northern Grampians community to enjoy long into the future, especially when you consider the growth of female participation in sport and the need to build or upgrade female change room facilities.” Mr Erwin said the council had worked closely with district communities and sporting clubs to develop strong project plans for both upgrades, which would lead to significant increases in sports participation, particularly among families, women, children and the elderly. The council applied for money through the Federal Government’s Building Better Regions Fund and the Community Sport Infrastructure Grant Program. “We recognise there were an overwhelming number of applications for those funding streams, but we’re still disappointed that our projects have been overlooked,” Cr Erwin said. “We’ll now look towards the Federal Budget

Wednesday, March 27, 2019

in the hope that there is some funding available for these projects.” Another project discussed at the meeting was Heath Street Bridge in Halls Gap, considered by the council as an integral piece of the overall development of the town into an internationally recognised walking village. Cr Erwin said construction of the bridge would address an issue of arterial traffic passing through Halls Gap’s village centre, instead directing traffic over a 60-kilometre bridge that would cross Stony Creek. He said considering the Grampians region had considerable growth in domestic overnight spending and domestic length of stay last year, with Halls Gap playing a major role, upgrading the efficiency of road use in the village centre was critical. The council has had some success in attracting federal funding, receiving $50,000 for a Stawell Gateway Enhancement Project: Strategic Plan. The project is designed to support planning activity to identify ways of attracting more visitors to Stawell while capitalising on when dual-carriageway work on the Western Highway reaches the Wimmera city. The project will involve stakeholder and community with an aim to create ‘realistic infrastructure design concepts and set out an implementation strategy that includes immediate, intermediate and long-term options’. “Given Stawell is the gateway to the Grampians, this grant will help us create a plan to improve and enhance the entry into Stawell and hopefully draw traffic into the CBD to improve economic development,” Cr Erwin said.

and helped to lighten a ‘lineload’ that was too intense for one person. Secondary roles of ‘Roger’ and ‘Piggy’ will be brought to life by Annika Livingstone and Haylie Mibus respectively. Natimuk artist Mary French has designed stage projections and a ‘life-like’ wild pig made partly from high-density foam. “We have designed a really interesting and unusual set with animated projections, which is something people might not have seen before in the Heritage Hall,” Anselmi said. “The whole production is really different because it has

young people playing characters who are their own age. “The show deals with relevant themes such as savagery and the capacity for violence when walls of society are removed. “It is not a light piece of theatre, it is a hard-hitting dramatic piece. “But every single child put their hand up to be a part of it. They are really excited.” The show starts at 8pm and people can buy $20 tickets at Horsham Town Hall or online at www.horshamtownhall. com.au. – Lotte Reiter

Meet Geoff Coustley ■■ He’s been selling real estate in the Wimmera for 43 years. ■■ He is a tragic Neil Diamond fan. BALANCING ACT: Wimmera Women’s Circus members from left, Tia-Rose Turner, Tina Pallot, Liz Hopkins, Hannah Peltzer, Kerry Hill, Mel Cook and Melissa Morris practising a ‘fan’ at one of their training nights. The group has been performing in the region for more than 13 years.

A circus of possibility BY LOTTE REITER

immera Women’s Circus members have been tumbling and twirling at community events for years, but the group’s underlying message is one of self-belief and confidence.

A ‘self-organised project’, this ever-changing group of women have developed a supportive setting for females in the region to engage in physical activity and performance. Their welcoming and fun-loving status might be enough to convince anyone that it is never too late to run away with the circus. Member Melissa Morris said the group was no ‘Cirque du Soleil’, they simply enjoyed the energy and strength-building components of their weekly Tuesday night training at Haven Hall. “We are an amateur, voluntary community. We just enjoy performing and interacting with an audience,” she said. “It is a creative environment and it is fun.

“It helps make good connections and everyone can do something. “You know, a group of women together can be very supportive.” Physically, Ms Morris said members will stand, sit on and hold each other up for skills and tricks, but support in the group also ran deeper. “It is a good network for people, and a place to challenge yourself and learn new tricks in a safe and supportive environment,” she said. “Often people see us perform and they will come up and say, ‘I could never do that’, and it is really not true. “We encourage people not to say, ‘Oh I couldn’t do that’. There are spots for everyone. Have a try, have a go. “There was actually one particular move I didn’t think I could do and someone else came along and said, ‘you could do that’. “Everyone can do something.” The group was created about 13 years ago and grew from an

art project called ‘We Don’t Do Lycra’ inspired by Performing Older Women’s Circus. The project provided professional circus skill training to older people in the Wimmera, challenging stereotypes against older generations.

Collaboration

Wimmera Women’s Circus has since collaborated with Circus Oz, award-winning theatre company Asking for Trouble and performed at various events across the region. “It is great to work with other skilled, professional circus performers and groups,” Ms Morris said. “We always look for opportunity. We are working at the moment to see what we can do for this year’s Nati Frinj. “The last festival was a full house, so we have just been thinking ‘what can we do this year to make it bigger?’” Earlier this month the group performed at Horsham’s International Women’s Day lunch at Horsham Town Hall, supporting a movement for women’s rights.

Weekly Wool Market

“It was good. There was a small selection of us there and we linked well with the theme ‘Balance for Better’ this year,” Ms Morris said. “As a women’s circus, it was good to support International Women’s Day.” Ms Morris, a member of the group for more than 10 years, has watched other women come and go, including a Spanish national. She said they were always keen to see new women join in, and new-comers did not need to be worried about what they thought they could or could not do. “We are always looking for new members. People don’t have to have any previous training or gymnastics ability,” she said. “There are spots for everyone. We need people to sit on or stand on, we need people to fly, to spot-watch. “We also need people who are good at story-telling. “It is quite fun, and this is a very supportive environment.”

The Australian wool market has continued its downward trend, recording overall losses for the fourth consecutive series in Week 38. A continually diminishing supply of good style wool, in particular those with favourable additional measurement results, attracted excellent competition and as a result recorded minimal losses. However, due to seasonal conditions, a large part of the offering was lower style types, many of which also possessed poor additional measurement results. Wool with styles 6 and 7, made up 15.4% of the merino fleece offering, the highest level since June 2010. Due to the prevalence of these wools, buyers have again struggled to average them into their purchases. The result was the continued discounting of these types as the series progressed, by sales end the prices being achieved on these lower style types was generally 20 to 40 cents below those achieved at the previous week’s sale. It was these price reductions that were the driving force behind the losses recorded in the individual Micron Price Guides (MPGs). The AWEX Eastern Market Indicator (EMI) fell by 16 cents for the series, to close at 1,963 cents. Worth noting, due to the strengthening of the Australian dollar (The AUD got as high as 71.62 USc on Thursday, its highest level since the 27th of February), when viewed in US dollar terms the EMI rose by 5 cents. The skirting market behaved similarly to the fleece, better style lots with less than 3.0% vegetable matter (vm) were keenly sought after and were generally only 20 to 30 cents easier. Buyers were less keen on the lesser style wools and lots carrying in excess of 5.0% vm, and as a result these types fell by 50 to 80 cents. The crossbreds defied the trend of the other sectors, managing to record small gains for the series, generally between 10 and 20 cents.

Ararat leaders list priorities E

ast Grampians Pipeline, more housing stock and the continued Western Highway duplication are among projects Ararat Rural City Council has chosen as key priorities to lobby and advocate for during 2019-2020.

The council voted at its latest general meeting to list eight projects as key priorities for its advocacy program. Chief executive Tim Harrison said having a municipal advocacy program was important in driving positive economic, social and environmental outcomes for Ararat district community. He said the council regularly advocated on behalf of the community for state and federal government funding and support to address key projects and issues. “The council has chosen the eight projects by talking with our community, our stakeholders and intergovernmental agencies,” Dr Harrison said. “In order to maximise the impact of our advocacy work, the council will allocate $27,500 in the upcoming budget. “This includes $7500 for advocacy collateral and $20,000 to engage professional lobbyists who will be able to get our messages to the right people in the right government agencies.” Dr Harrison said the council would start working on the advocacy program as soon as possible and keep the community updated on progress. The eight priority projects are: • East Grampians Pipeline – a key project

relating to the economic development of the municipality based on drought-proofing the region, increasing the productivity of available land and value adding to the agricultural product. • Western Highway duplication – completion of the project including the AraratStawell section. • Ararat bypass – with increasing delays in this project rolling out, there is a need for the council to maintain pressure on government to complete this important project. • Ararat Hills Mountain Bike Track – in an effort to grow mountain biking as a tourism attraction, the council is keen to support efforts to expand the world-standard tracks in Ararat Hills Regional Park. • Ararat East Development Zone – this project aims to revitalise the area, which comprises Aradale and a section of land near Green Hill Lake. • Tunnel Track walk, Pomonal – development of the track walk at Pomonal to provide an important link to the Grampians Peak Trail. • Renewable energy development – this provides an opportunity for the council to continue to engage in the economic, social and environmental benefits of renewable energy. • Housing – ensuring adequate housing stocks is a key element in ensuring employment growth in Ararat. Housing stocks, particularly in the rental sector, are inadequate to meet current and future demand.

Common challenges in planning

nvestment planning is an important part of managing finances but underpinning the whole process of creating wealth in the first place is having a good financial strategy.

For many people that strategy is taking each day as it comes and letting the future look after itself, but in a complex and ever-changing world, isn’t a more active approach a good idea? Each of us has specific needs and desires, of course, but there are many common challenges that we need to think about when developing our financial strategies.

Stage of life

Baby boomers are moving into retirement in droves, so Gen X is taking on the mantle of being the great

wealth accumulators. For the most part, this generation has its strategies in place – pay down the mortgage, contribute to super, maybe buy an investment property and wait for the kids to leave home. Generationally, it’s millennials who face the greatest challenges in developing a financial plan. Younger millennials are just embarking on careers and the focus is, understandably, on having a good time. Many feel priced out of the housing market, and while the ‘gig’ economy promises greater work flexibility, this comes with reduced job security and often no employer superannuation contributions. Then there’s the challenge of balancing starting a family with establishing a career. All up there’s a lot to plan for.

FINANCE

focus

with Robert Goudie CFP Dip FP Consortium Private Wealth

Gender

The path to income equality is a slow and frustrating one. In general, during their working lives, women continue to earn significantly less than men. This is largely due to time out of the workforce to look after children. However, progress is being made, and an increasing number of women are earning more than their partners. Having dad take time off to look after the kids then becomes a viable financial strategy.

On top of that, the gig economy, and technology in general, is opening more opportunities for stay-at-home parents to earn a decent income.

Relationship breakdown

Sadly, many long-term relationships end, and the emotional and financial costs can be high. This isn’t an issue that anyone wants to think about, but is obviously a trigger for developing a new financial strategy. This is particularly important when children are involved, and expert help will likely be needed.

Inheritance

More wealth is being transferred from older to younger generations than ever before, and thanks to superannuation, this trend can only grow. Receiving an inheritance is often the event that leads many people to

seek financial advice. While the focus might be on creating an investment plan, this is an ideal time to look at the broader financial strategy to make the most of any inheritance.

Never too soon to start

The upshot is that pretty much everyone can benefit from having a financial plan. It doesn’t need to be complicated and you can get the ball rolling yourself. A simple savings plan or paying off credit card debt can be good places start. To make the most of your situation it’s a good idea to talk to a financial adviser. A qualified financial adviser can help you understand the complex financial environment and what you need to know to work out the likely outcomes of different strategies.

Environment flow ‘Beat the Bunny’ fundraising race to keep fish alive An environmental flow has started in the upper Mt William Creek between Lake Fyans and Lake Lonsdale to maintain an indigenous fish population in the waterway. Wimmera Catchment Management Authority is releasing water for the environment into a section of the drying reach of the creek. It is only the third time the authority has targeted this section of the creek, with previous releases in May 2015 and March 2016. Wimmera CMA prioritised this section of the creek for environmental flows after scientific surveys identified it provided breeding and refuge habitat for native fish including southern pygmy perch, Australian Smelt, common galaxias and flatheaded gudgeon. Wimmera CMA chief executive David Brennan said monitoring showed 2015 and 2016 environmental watering provided important boosts for native fish, including triggering breeding of southern pygmy perch. He said with a wet 2016 the stream flow gauge at Mokepilly measured 35,022 megalitres of natural flows. In 2017 the gauge measured 3614 megalitres. “But last year the creek only had 264 megalitres of natural flows and the most recent survey results indicate that it is under stress,” he said.

“Water levels have dropped significantly, salinity levels are increasing and this has impacted on native vegetation and native fish numbers.” Lake Lonsdale Action Group member and Stawell Angling Club president Ray Howard said environmental watering was ‘vitally’ important. “There’s a good population of fish in that Mokepilly area, but because it’s not getting any inflows and is on the verge of going dry, we need the environmental water to hold breeding stock and enhance this fishery into the future,” he said. Mr Howard said it was important to keep rivers in good condition during dry times. “It’s important to keep our rivers healthy so they can keep producing good fish,” he said. “It’s good stretch of water which is very popular with land-based anglers because it has good access.” Environmental researcher Dion Iervasi from Austral Research and Consulting said it was not unusual for the upper section of the Mt William Creek to become a series of isolated deep pools at this time of year, but circumstances were especially dry. Researchers will return to the site for follow-up surveys to determine the benefits of the watering.

It’s about quality & independence...

Warracknabeal Fire Brigade has set a challenge for people to ‘Beat the Bunny’ in a change of pace for its Good Friday Appeal fundraising event on Sunday. Participants of ‘Beat the Bunny Amazing Race’ will hop across Warracknabeal completing challenges at set locations, earning points and raising money for Royal Children’s Hospital, with a human-sized rabbit the competitor to beat. Event organiser Amber Healey said she hoped to see community members get involved and have fun in this twist on television show The Amazing Race, with prizes up for grabs for the top three teams. “We try to mix up our fundraisers every few years to keep interest,” she said. “We hope to raise as much money as we possibly can for the Good Friday Appeal, because everyone knows somebody with sick kids. “If we can raise a couple of thousand dollars that would be great. “First prize is two nights’ accommodation for two at Mercure Port of Echuca. People can also win a ride in a fire truck and there are vouchers for local businesses.” A barbeque, raffle and ‘guess how many eggs in the jar’ will also help raise money on the day. Registration is $5 for children, $10 for adults and $25 for five or more in a team. People can call Ms Healey on 0419 533 082 or email amber.healey@big pond.com for more information.

Grain workshop in Tarranginnie W

est Wimmera grain growers will have a chance to develop skills and knowhow about storage and ways to use it to improve profitability at a free workshop on Tuesday.

Funded through a Grains Research Development Corporation Stored Grains project, the workshop aims to provide growers with information on the economics of having and increasing on-farm grain storage, best practices for managing stored grain and when it is profitable to store grain. Promoted by Birchip Cropping Group, BCG, it will be at the Tarranginnie silo, owned by Lawloit farmer and GRDC Southern Panel chair John Bennett and Allison Bourchier. Mr Bennett bought the unused GrainCorp silo and will provide background information about the drivers of buying the silo and how storing grain benefits his enterprise. Keynote speaker and business consultant Chris Warrick will share his knowledge and experience on topics including how to best use grain storage; on-farm grain storage options; the economics of building, maintaining and increasing grain storage; and how to ensure grain quality remains high by mitigating pest damage. Industry leaders have identified the most appropriate time of the year to plan for grain storage is post-harvest/pre-sowing, so there is sufficient lead time to plan, budget and implement changes instead of making rushed decisions as harvest looms. Mr Warrick said it is important growers had the knowledge and tools to make informed

and strategic decisions around on-farm grain storage. “In the same way growers ensure they take a strategic approach to managing the production of their crops, a strategic approach to grain storage is also required for optimal end-product performance,” he said. “It’s no longer acceptable to empty grain into a silo at the back of the shed and forget about it for months on end. “Successful on-farm storage starts with a planned, strategic mindset.” Mr Warrick also highlighted the importance of growers understanding the economics of on-farm grain storage. “On-farm storage systems are a significant investment to set up and manage,” he said. “Any potential return on investment in onfarm storage should be compared to other investment options, such as the return on investment varies for every grower depending on their scale, crops grown, access to bulk handlers and distance from domestic markets. “A key component to storing grain on-farm successfully is having the knowledge of best-practice management to avoid costly quality issues and disasters, such as weevil damage.” Workshop organisers are encouraging regional growers interested in learning more about on-farm grain storage to attend. The Tarranginnie silo is 11 kilometres west of Nhill on the Nhill-Diapur Road. The workshop is from 8.30am to 10.30am. People seeking more information and to RSVP can call BCG on 5492 2787.

aluminium’ trim and Chequered Flag scuff plates feature. Conversely, the 300 Sport has a dark satin grey finish for its grille, door cladding, side vents, side mirror caps, side window surrounds and rear bumper. Meanwhile, the grille and tailgate feature 300 Sport badging, while three exterior colours are on offer, including Yulong White, Santorini Black and Indus Silver. The cabin adds yellow contrast stitching to the dashboard, centre console and seats, while the 300 Sport logo is applied to the scuff plates, carpet floormats, steering wheel and front headrests.

A 10.0-inch touchscreen Touch Pro infotainment system, satellite navigation, a Meridan sound system, 14-way power-adjustable front seats and leather upholstery are also standard, while a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster is optional alongside heated front and rear seats and adaptive cruise control. The Chequered Flag is available with three 2.0-litre turbocharged fourcylinder engines, including the familiar 132kW-430Nm and 177kW500Nm diesel units, and 184kW365Nm petrol. As its name implies, the performance-focused Sport 300 ups the ante with an equally familiar 400Nm petrol and 700Nm diesel, both of which

produce 221kW of power. All five special-edition variants are mated to a ZF-sourced eight-speed torque-converter automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system. Sales of the F-Pace have improved this year, with 165 examples sold to the end of February – a 16.2 percent increase over the 142 deliveries made during the same period in 2018. The F-Pace is currently the ninth best-selling mid-size SUV in the $60,000-plus segment, trailing the BMW X3, 859 units, Audi Q5, 597, Mercedes-Benz GLC, 581, Lexus NX, 521 and Volvo XC60, 368, among others. – Justin Hilliard

Australian debut on horizon

ollowing the release of two teaser images in February, Hyundai has unveiled its sporty Tucson N Line with unique exterior and interior features and upgraded dynamics.

It is available in Europe with three engines – a 130kW 1.6-litre turbo-petrol carried over from the existing Tucson range, as well as mild-hybrid powertrains in 1.6 and 2.0-litre turbo-diesel form. Hyundai’s Australian wing, however, has no plans to bring the electrified unit Down Under. While it has not yet confirmed the N Line will be imported, Hyundai Motor Company Australia spokesman Guido Schenken said the group was studying the business case for the market. “We’ve made no secret of the fact our focus is on building an N performance family, and so we will, of course, be studying the business case for any new product that should become available,” he said. As the sportiest version of the South Korean medium SUV, the Tucson N Line features a sharper suspension setup which increases rigidity by five percent at the rear and eight percent in the front, as well as a recalibrated electric steering system to give a more direct, linear feel at the wheel. The N Line features a dark theme

REVEALED: Hyundai’s Tucson N Line is now a reality

compared to the standard range, with a dark mesh-pattern grille, unique 19inch alloy wheels, black side mirror housings and rear spoiler, black-bezel headlights, unique daytime running lights and LED light design, darkened window frames and body-coloured door handles. On the inside, customers will find

alloy pedals and N-branded leathersuede sport seats with red accented stitching, which also extends to the steering wheel and shift lever. The current Tucson line-up is offered with a 130kW-265Nm 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a 136kW-400Nm 2.0-litre turbo-diesel unit with front and all-paw drive-

line options. Pricing kicks off from $28,150 plus on-road costs for the entry-level Go, and up to $48,800 for the top-dog Highlander diesel. The Highlander benefits from equipment including an 8.0-inch display with sat-nav and Apple CarPlayAndroid Auto, eight-speaker audio, front parking sensors, wireless phone

charging, a panoramic glass sunroof, heated and ventilated seats, a power tailgate and a 4.2-inch multi-function digital cluster. Depending on where the N Line is positioned, it will likely sport the aforementioned equipment. – Spencer Leech

Kia sows another Ceed

SKETCHY: Kia Motor Europe’s new Ceed crossover will not cross paths with the upcoming South Korean small SUV, codenamed SP2, that is pencilled in for Australia late this year.

ia Motors Australia is getting an all-new small SUV later this year, but it will not be the upcoming Ceed crossover vehicle that was teased in a sketch released by the European branch of the South Korean company. Like other variants of the Ceed family, the small high-riding hatchback will stay close to Europe, at least for the foreseeable future. Instead, KMAu has its eyes on a sub-Sportage SUV modelled on the Kia SP concept revealed in India more than a year ago. Codenamed SP2, the new addition to the Kia line-up will be sourced from South Korea for

Australia, arriving under a yetto-be-announced badge in the last quarter of this year. The SP2 is said to be the same size as sister company Hyundai’s Kona, and so we assume that the two vehicles are closely related. The European-developed and built Ceed family is mounted on a different platform that so far has spawned a hatchback, wagon, coupe-style sedan and – now – a jacked up hatchback to create a sort-of SUV. Kia Motors Europe design vicepresident Gregory Guillaume said the new vehicle would have its own look. “There’s another style, another

Robot Motors

type of vehicle, that we feel very strongly deserves to be a new member of the Ceed family,” he said. “It will the play the role that’s needed to make the Ceed range stronger and even more exciting and more appealing to European consumers. “The design will be nothing like you’ve seen in the Ceed family so far. This will be the next big surprise from Kia.” The latest Ceed addition will have its own model name, but Kia is holding back that information until the new product is revealed in the flesh later this year. – Ron Hammerton

Insight into soil biology F

armers have gained insight into ways of increasing the resilience of cropping land at Victorian No-Till Farmers Association workshops in Horsham.

Agricultural ecologist Nicole Masters, from regenerative agricultural specialist group Integrity Soils led the workshops at Sawyer Park and on a district farm. Ms Masters, who leads workshops across Australia, New Zealand and the United State of America, spoke about a need to build resilience into vulnerable farming systems to become more profitable. “For some it’s about getting off the treadmill. We talk about the role of microbiology in farming, building carbon and restoring natural cycles,” she said. “We talk a bit about water and flood and drought cycles and what control do farmers have in coping with that. “These workshops are very much about asking how we put the power back into farmers’ hands.” Ms Masters said she hoped farmers who attended the workshops gained inspiration and a sense of hope and possibility about their land. “We do a lot of work, most in North America, Australia and New Zealand, with biological systems and exploring how we can restore

HOW IT WORKS: From left, Victorian No-Till Farmers Association members Paul Oxbrow of Rupanyup and Steve Stone, Woodstock, are pictured with agricultural ecologist Nicole Masters at a workshop in Horsham. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER them. We’re seeing incredible successes. It’s about asking what’s possible in these eco-systems and where are we failing to capitalise on what we have.” Rupanyup farmer and Victorian No-Till Farmers Association board member Paul Oxbrow said the

workshops had been about gaining greater understanding of the growing environment. “They provide a lot of direction on regenerating our soils to grow a more resilient plant and healthier food,” he said. Steve Stone, who farms at Wood-

stock and among visiting attendees at the Horsham workshops, said it was great to hear more about regenerative farming systems. “So we can have self-sustaining and profitable systems that are healthy and help lower farming input costs,” he said.

Kingston wary of basin relocation plans Independent candidate for Mallee Ray Kingston believes the Federal Government has ignored recommendations of its own report in announcing a relocation of Murray Darling Basin Authority jobs to Mildura, Griffith and Murray Bridge. Mr Kingston was referring to the Nationals’ Regions at the Ready report. He said the Nationals needed to realise that ‘making a success of decentralisation takes more than just a token announcement’. “It’s a process that requires careful planning and long-term com-

mitment,” he said. “I am a strong supporter of decentralisation, so while I welcome this move in principle, I have deep reservations about what looks like another ad hoc process knocked up on the back of an envelope in an attempt to sure up country seats in the lead up to an election. “These matters require a longterm strategic approach. “The government has been talking a good game in this space for ages, but all we’ve seen so far is the near destruction of the pesticides regulator through the relocation to New England when

Barnaby Joyce’s seat was under threat. “This decision by the then Ag Minister came at a massive and long-lasting cost to agriculture.” Mr Kingston said the government risked further dysfunction of the Murray Darling Basin Authority and discrediting the concept of future decentralisation through poor planning. “Decentralisation done right needs a long-term bipartisan approach, as an Independent for Mallee, I can act as an honest broker to push both sides of parliament towards positive outcomes,” he said.

Call to reduce stubble burns 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

A Victorian government agency is calling on landowners to protect paddock trees and remnant patches of native vegetation when burning stubble. Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning’s Michelle Butler said burning stubble should only be used as a last resort. Ms Butler, the department’s Natural Environment Programs’ Grampians regional manager, said stubble burning was on a downward trend as farmers recognised the value of stubble retention. “Conservation farming methods for managing weeds, pests and disease are far better for nutrient retention, soil health and moisture,” she said. “Under limited circumstances, where burning stubble is required, it should be wellplanned and approved through a council permit. Strict adherence to grass and stubble-burning-permit conditions will ensure damage to native vegetation is avoided. “Failure to comply with the conditions of the permit, including protection of paddock trees, might result in action being taken by the council or government agencies.” Ms Butler said DELWP recommended slashing around the base of trees to establish an adequate firebreak, removing any tree debris from the base of the tree or wetting the area around the tree before burning. She said anyone requiring information about permits should contact their council.

Milk price lift a win Australian Agriculture Minister David Littleproud has welcomed a decision by supermarket giants Coles and Aldi to lift the price on their home-brand milk. Mr Littleproud said he had made breaking a $1-litre milk model a commitment to help Australian dairy farmers. “I said I’d never apologise to supermarkets over $1 milk and I never did. Both Coles and Aldi have held discussions with me and I welcome this important first step,” he said. “Coles and Aldi’s announcement that they’ll no longer sell milk for $1 means we’re breaking the back of the $1 milk model. “It’s time farmers received fair reward for their effort. These people produce our food. “Last week I announced a dairy code of conduct, which will outlaw exclusive contracts, retrospective price cuts and deduction of loyalty payments so farmers can shift to another processor more easily, creating more competition for their milk. “I won’t stop fighting for a fairer price for farmers right across the dairy range.”

Trade agreement win for farmers 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

Agriculture leaders are celebrating a significant trading win for farmers. Victorian Farmers Federation president David Jochinke said the signing of a long-awaited Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement would deliver real results for farmers across a wide range of commodities, including livestock, grains, dairy and horticulture. “Indonesia is already one of our greatest trading partners,” he said. “In 2017, food and fibre exports to Indonesia were worth $3.5 billion for Australia’s economy. “This trade agreement will serve to strengthen our trade relationship and maintain or even grow

Australia’s market share in Indonesia. I hope the Australian Parliament moves quickly to ratify this agreement. “Thank you to Minister for Trade Simon Birmingham, former Minister for Trade Steven Ciobo and the many departmental staff who worked on this agreement for over eight years.” The Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement was signed in Jakarta by Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment Simon Birmingham. National Farmers’ Federation chief executive Tony Mahar accompanied the minister for the signing of the historic agreement.

eading pollster Gary Morgan told me that governments don’t win elections, they only lose them.

It took me a while to comprehend what he’d said, but since that day more than three decades ago, he’s been proven correct time and time again. There’s a whiff of that happening federally and the ‘alternative’ candidates are coming out of the woodwork making claims they will fix farmers problems if they’re elected when there’s virtually no possibility of them ever having the power to do so. At a drought meeting in the Goulburn Valley with Federal Nationals MP Damian Drum, Federal Agriculture and Water Minister David Littleproud and Special Drought Envoy Barnaby Joyce, the gathering was littered with political hopefuls and angry irrigators who had decided to dump their National Party allegiances and support alternatives. It made for an uncomfortable mix and frankly very little was achieved. The MPs were shouted down, sworn at and accused of doing nothing. A growing number of irrigators are jumping on the ‘pause the plan’ bandwagon for the Murray Darling Basin plan. It was a Howard government plan, endorsed by Labor, with the Greens using their clout to lobby for the environment. The only federal candidates agreeing with the ‘pause’ are the ones who have zilch chance of winning.

TALKING: Barnaby Joyce at a drought meeting in the Goulburn Valley. Minister Littleproud ruled it out, though conceded it might not be working as well as it should be. He knows it would be political suicide for him to dump the plan. Member for Murray Drum wants the Commonwealth Environmental Water Holder to release water for dairy farmers. Sounds good in theory but was ruled out months ago as not within the jurisdiction of the authority to do so. The Victorian Water Holder has found it has surplus water but under the legislation, that is sold in the open water market. No dairy farmer could afford it. If you give it to one farmer, the obvious response would be all farmers would want water for nothing. It just doesn’t work like that. Special Drought Envoy Joyce brought little joy. He spoke of how he’d ‘talked tough’ with former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull when he ousted Tony Abbott and told

him if he didn’t listen to the Nationals, the Coalition would be under threat. How did that help anybody? Mr Turnbull had a good grasp of water policy, having served as Minister for Water and Environment and little respect for Joyce. So there went what should have been an informed chance of reform. But more importantly to the farmers at the meeting, Joyce talked of the drought in Queensland and NSW and how he’d had to sell his own cattle, but didn’t offer anything other than more talk. Asked why he hadn’t visited drought stricken East Gippsland, he said he hadn’t been invited. “You can’t just lob up on someone,” he said, and promptly ended the media conference. There must be a reason why Mr Littleproud has been there twice in the past month, but the Special Drought Envoy not once, ever.

Young farmers meet minister M

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

inyip farmer Tom McGrath believes a meeting with new state agriculture minister Jaclyn Symes will yield positive results for young farmers in Victoria.

Mr McGrath is a member of the Young Farmers Advisory Council, a ministerial advisory body advocating for young Victorians in the agriculture sector. The council met with Ms Symes for the first time since she took over the portfolio from Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford. Mr McGrath said the meeting had established a good basis for further discussions with Ms Symes. “I think the biggest thing to take from it is that Jaclyn seems to be really excited about having a go,” he said. “She sounds like she really wants to make an impact and have a go at making the industry attractive to up and coming young people. “She doesn’t want to rest on her laurels, but really shake things up and look at a few things in a different way, which is good.” Mr McGrath called for young farmers in the Wimmera to contact him prior to the meeting so he could accurately represent their concerns to Ms Symes. He said he was unable to address many specific issues during the council’s initial meeting,

but he expected to be able to address issues in depth at future meetings. “I’ll get that opportunity to put across the concerns of the farmers in the Wimmera,” he said. “I raised the general issue of infrastructure within our area. Obviously internet and phone connectivity is still a major issue within our area, and that’s something that really shouldn’t still need addressing in 2019.” Mr McGrath said topics such as mental health and water access and allocation were also discussed. He said he was unsure when the council’s next meeting with Ms Symes would be, but encouraged young Wimmera people to continue to contact him with any concerns. “We’re not certain of the next time we’ll meet with her,” he said. “It’s more about when she needs advice on hot topics at the time. “Just as a council we could meet two times a year, we could meet four times a year. “With the minister herself, it will probably be two or three times a year. “She has also given us the support to say that if she’s got an event in the area or we’re in her area, we’re welcome to attend and talk to her.” People can contact Mr McGrath to share their concerns by emailing thomasjmcgrath@ outlook.com.

Smart farming grants open 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

Applications for the second round of the Federal Government’s Smart Farming Partnerships are open. Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said the grants would be available to farmers, Landcare groups, universities and others. “We are funding substantial projects between $250,000 and $4-million that improve the sustainability of Australian agriculture,” he said.

EXPLORING EARLY BREAK: Birchip Cropping Group has started sowing for the 2019 season at its Kalkee site, with a trial receiving irrigation to simulate an autumn break.

How early can sowing start? I

s March 20 too early to start sowing?

Researchers at Birchip Cropping Group, BCG, intend to find out after they sowed the first Wimmera trial crop at Kalkee last week. The BCG site is one of about 25 involved in a range of trials across the Wimmera and Mallee this year. This is the first of four ‘time of sowing’ trials as part of a GRDC ‘Development of crop management packages for early sown, slow developing wheats in the southern region’ project. BCG research and extension officer Genevieve Clarke said the project comprised four sowing times, with about two weeks between each. “The research is looking at how growers could benefit from an early break by sowing what are known as winter wheats, slower developing wheats to the more commonly grown spring wheats,” she said. There are two trials being sown as part of the project. The first is looking at pre-release and newly released winter wheat varieties including Longsword, DS Bennett and Illabo. This trial is being irrigated with 10 millimetres of water to achieve emergence. The second trial is looking at different amounts

Wednesday, March 27, 2019

of irrigation applied at sowing – 10mm, 25mm and 50mm – to investigate how much of a ‘breaking’ rain is enough to establish winter wheats early and have them survive through to when later rain arrives. “BCG staff will be visiting the site regularly to undertake assessments throughout the season,” Ms Clarke said. This is the third year this work is being carried out in the Wimmera, with trials at Rupanyup in 2018 and Longerenong, 2017. The research has attracted considerable attention with questions around soil-moisture requirements and variety performance across different seasons being answered. As part of the wider project there are 10 trial sites across grain-growing regions of South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales. BCG is managing the same trial at a 2019 BCG main site eight kilometres west of Birchip. Growers will have the opportunity to visit the early-sown wheat trial at the BCG Main Field Day on September 11. More information about the field day and results of this trial will appear on BCG’s website www.bcg.org.au as the season progresses. – Jemma Pearl, BCG project officer

“These grants fund sustainable agriculture by helping create new practices and then having farmers use those practices. “We’re looking for applications from across all agricultural industries including cropping, livestock, mixed farming, rangelands, marine, horticulture and sugar. “Grants can fund research, trials or delivery of projects which deal with, for example,

soil health, pest control, farm input efficiency, Indigenous involvement and climate adaptation. “These grants are delivered in partnerships and offer a fantastic opportunity for organisations to partner with farmers to promote the best practices.” People seeking more information on the National Landcare Program can visit website www.agriculture.gov.au.

Minimising transition stress “Like” Us On Facebook

95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

The Weekly Advertiser welcomes new contributor Craig Altmann to the newspaper’s monthly Aglife feature. Mr Altmann, who grew up in Jeparit, attended Longerenong College and has gained extensive industry experience in business and general farming, is a seed and marketing sales agronomist with Australian Grain and Forage Seeds, AGF, and has volunteered to provide his thoughts on the industry and season throughout the year.

t was in the Coonawarra area, mid 2000s, at a producer group meeting where the farmer guest speaker – let’s call him ‘John’ – spoke about the management side of his business.

John shared his secret to successfully reducing stress and not making decisions on the run. His story has remained with me and since been reinforced many times. Where John farms is relatively reliable compared with the distribution area of The Weekly Advertiser. Still, around this time he had endured the rare experience of all but missing out on a spring. Since then, there’s been repeats of

this experience to varying degrees, bringing with it business and personal vulnerability and anxiety. Similarly, autumn 2019 sees farmers, agronomists, consultants, advisors and so on considering production and financial aspects such as timing of the break, seasonal rain forecasts, when we’ll need feed, hay and silage requirements, disease and weed control, herbicide residuals, marketing issues – for example commodity price forecasts, varieties, sowing seed availability, fertiliser and pesticide prices and availability, giving input suppliers time and commitment, labour requirements, optimal flowering periods, cash flow and gross margins. The reason I’m sharing this story is because it is a story of transition during the seasons and the flexibility and resilience required. Whether you’re cropping or grazing, currently, decisions are being made, and changed just as quick in some cases. So, John’s message of monitoring, measuring, flexibility and using strategic trigger points, is again relevant this year to minimise last-minute decisions and reduce stress. Funny coincidence – I was just about to finish and email this column, while stepping out of an event, only to hear presenter Simon Vogt of Rural Direc-

Craig Altmann

tions begin talking about the management traits and characteristics of the top 20 percent of farm businesses. There were six key points: • System focus; • The ability to take a big-picture overview when under pressure;

• Internalise and take responsibility for key business decisions; • Focusing energy in circle of control; • Being able to implement against key profit drivers; and • Be observant to emerging trends.

Counselling investment There will be more help for farmers facing hardship with the Federal Government investing a further $3.7-million in a Rural Financial Counselling Service. The extra money will bring the government commitment to the service to $77-million. Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said the Rural Financial Counselling Service had given crucial support to farming families during recent floods and drought. “Rural counsellors are our angels on the ground,” he said. “One of many things they do is help fill out Farm Household Allowance applications for farmers – for free.” Mr Littleproud said the Rural Financial Counselling Service would decide how best to use the extra $3.7-million. “This free service helps farmers cut through red tape and access all the support available to them,” he said. “Since August the RFCS hotline has received more than 1300 calls for assistance.” Mr Littleproud said more information on Rural Financial Counselling Services was available online at agriculture.gov.au/rfcs.

Farmers call for roo control V

ictoria’s peak farming body has called on the State Government to commercialise a 2014 kangaroo petfood trial to ensure ‘sensible and effective’ kangaroo population control.

Victorian Farmers Federation Livestock Group president Leonard Vallance said the kangaroo pet food trial was ‘clearly’ successful as an effective system for sustainably managing kangaroo populations and reducing waste. He said Victorian Environment Minister Lily D’Ambrosio needed to implement a kangaroo-harvesting framework based on evidence her department gathered in the trial and a 2018 kangaroo aerial survey. “These important decisions need to be made based on objective evidence, not an emotional knee-jerk reaction,” Mr Vallance said. “Victoria is the only state in Australia without an approved management plan for commercial kangaroo and wallaby harvesting. “Implementing a framework will increase transparency and provide certainty for government, shooters and farmers.” Mr Vallance said he believed Victoria’s kangaroo population had ‘exploded’ well beyond a natural level in recent years and

was having a serious impact on agricultural businesses and the welfare of the kangaroos themselves. “I’ve been inundated with calls from members who have lost pasture and crops, and had fences ruined by large numbers of kangaroos,” he said. “We’re also concerned the large number of kangaroos on our roads reduces road safety and threatens human lives. “Furthermore, we’ve heard shocking stories of emaciated, skinny kangaroos in overpopulated areas. This is a genuine animal welfare concern that needs to be addressed. “We have a great opportunity to sensibly and sustainably manage the kangaroo population, reduce damage to our farms, reduce waste in the system and support a viable business.”

n innovative approach to preparing for the coming cropping season has enabled pulse growers to hear from leading industry experts without leaving the farm.

As part of the Grains Research and Development Corporation’s Southern Region Pulse Extension Project, a series of short online webinars were run last week and are now available on GRDC’s website. Industry experts provided an overview of relevant agronomic information, pulse research findings and current market information by pulse crop type. GRDC manager of systems and agronomy – south, Andrew Etherton, said the Growing Pulses webinar series was a valuable addition to growers’ preparations for the 2019 cropping season. “The GRDC recognises this is a busy time of the year for growers, with so many events on the calendar ahead of sowing,” he said. “We therefore chose a webinar format for pulse crop forums, so growers and other industry personnel could conveniently tune in from their homes or offices. “Each webinar focused on a particular crop type, so growers and others could choose which webinars best suited their interests and needs.” The GRDC Southern Region Pulse Extension Project – Building capacity, skills and knowledge for the pulse industry in the southern region:

Andrew Etherton

Supporting expansion of high value pulses into new areas and ensuring sustained profitability of all key pulse crops – started in 2017 and is delivered by a consortium of organisations involved in the pulse industry across the GRDC’s southern region. Its objective is to increase the knowledge of growers and advisers on sustainable pulse production, leading to improved farming systems and grower profitability in the southern region. Webinar recordings on beans, vetch, field peas, lentils and chickpeas are available on GRDC website, grdc.com.au.

Answers: 1. Toyota. Company president Rizaburo Toyoda, who married into the Toyoda founding family, made the decision in the mid 1930s. 2. They were the first official European settlers in the Wimmera. Bracewell made the first claim, 100,000 acres at Dooen on August 10, 1842. Captain Chris Lewis was the Wimmera’s first European resident, settling at Ledcourt Station at Glenorchy in 1840. Aboriginal people of course lived in the region for tens of thousands of years. 3. True. Science guru Dr Karl Kruszelnicki explained in one of his books that if a non-Aboriginal could see a tree a few hundred metres away, a member of the study group could see a small animal on the ground in the shade of that tree. 4. He released 25 grey rabbits and five hares near Geelong to provide him with sport. Fastidious records of his hunts revealed he killed 14,263 rabbits on his property eight years later. 5. In your ears. It is earwax. 6. He was a notorious English pirate. Blackbeard settled in the Bahamas and built on his pirate trade under Benjamin Hornigold. His famous pirate ship, manned with 40 guns, was called Queen Anne’s Revenge. 7. Platelets. 8. Richmond’s Jack Riewoldt and Carlton’s Marc Murphy both played their 250th games. Richmond’s Alex Rance played his 200th game. 9. Four. Three on the sides and one on the bottom. 10. The diving bell spider, like all spiders, can’t hold its breath and uses a special web ‘pocket’ to drag air bubbles underwater from which it breathes.

Christian Devotions

...WE’RE THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Mary of Bethany, Model of Faith – Found at Jesus’ Feet

Situations Vacant

The student of the Gospels observes the deep devotion of Mary of Bethany to her Lord – being found at the feet of Jesus, again, and again, and again. In the family home, Mary is found, ‘at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said’ (Luke 10:39). And amid the frustrations and distractions of daily domestic life, Jesus said, ‘Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her’ (Lk 10:42). The second time we see her devotion is during the episode of her brother being raised from the dead. We read, ‘… her sister called her aside. ‘The Teacher is here,’ she said, ‘and is asking for you.’ When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him…. When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, ‘Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died’ (John 11:28-29,32). And what part of Jesus’ body does Mary anoint in preparation for his burial? We read, ‘Mary took about half a litre of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair…’ (Jn 12:3). Mary heard Jesus teach about the kingdom of God and saw it come into being in the dead being raised. Her Lord gave her the faith to trust, that although he would die at the hands of sinners, having those then bloodied feet nailed to a cross, that he would likewise be raised to the glory of the Father. Brothers and sisters in Christ: Where is the model of faith found? At the Lord’s feet in devotion! Mary of Bethany, Model of Faith – Found at Jesus’ Feet.

Swimmers shine in regional finals

group of Wimmera swimmers have progressed to School Sports Victoria state championships after winning events at Greater Western Zone finals in Horsham. The qualifying swimmers will compete against the state’s best in various age groups at Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre on April 24. Lily Eldridge of Warrack-

nabeal Secondary College; Dean Briggs, Matthew Ough, Jaclyn Clode, Montanna Connelly, St Brigid’s College, Horsham; Luca Geue, Holy Trinity Lutheran College, Horsham; and Alexis Collins, Stawell Secondary College; all won secondary school events during the regional titles. Holy Trinity Lutheran College, Horsham College and a Nhill team also won relay events.

Edward Jones, Ellita Scollary, Holy Trinity Lutheran College; Marissa Flavell, Ararat West Primary School; and Jorja Clode, Horsham Primary School; won primary-level events in Horsham. Wimmera District Swimming Association hosted the Greater Western Zone finals at Horsham Aquatic Centre in an event featuring representatives from 48 schools.

UNDER-18 REDBACKS: From left, back, Jezza Woods, coach Donna Spalding, Will Lawrie, Aiden Hateley, Matthew Spalding and team manager Casanda Woods, and front, Logan McKinnis, Alex Van Opstal, Luke Briggs, Luke Spalding and Kobe Davis.

Redbacks rise in Bendigo Under-18 and under-16 Ararat representative basketball teams performed strongly at Basketball Victoria Country championships in Bendigo. An under-18 squad, now preparing for a Ballarat tournament, made it to quarter finals after winning three of five pool games and advancing into division three of the championships. Under-18 Redbacks coach Donna Spalding said the team had worked hard since October, competing in six tournaments, and praised players for their efforts at Bendigo. An under-16 boys Redbacks squad also shone at the Bendigo titles.

The squad won all of its pool games, made up of 36 teams, on the Saturday to advance to finals on the Sunday. The pool success placed the unbeaten group in division three. The squad advanced to a qualifying final against Wodonga on Sunday, which it won 43-29. It then advanced to a semi-final and despite having the lead for the first half, lost to Hamilton 52-62. Under-16 coach Megan Shea said the team finished third overall and needed to be proud of their performance and their representation over the weekend.

Netball Countdown

Ararat RSL Rats

Energy high in camp A

BY LOTTE REITER

rarat is building momentum and there is a strong sense opponents might want to keep an eye on the revitalised side.

This is because the Rats have their own eyes on another strong Wimmera association season. All grades for Ararat made finals in 2018, with the A Grade netballers climbing to elimination finals before a devastating loss to Horsham Saints, who took a 26-point win all the way to a premiership. Even so, it was a far cry from where the Rats placed in previous years, something A Grade coach Taylor Mason summed up when chatting with The Weekly Advertiser. “We are obviously disappointed about last season – but to see the team that beat you go on to win the finals – it means the girls are up there with some of the best,” she said. “As a club we are still trying to push out of that rough patch from a few years ago. “Our side is quite versatile. We have a lot of depth, a lot of experience and a lot of potential. We are really excited for the season.” Netball director Stacey Dale echoed Mason’s positivity on the club’s psyche this year. She said energy in the camp was high and confirmed the ultimate goal was to play finals.

“A Grade has had a rough couple of years, but we are raring to get going,” Ms Dale said. “We would really like to make finals, to continue where we were last year and develop the team together. “As a club we want to focus on being united and on the same page. “It is also about growth and the positive journey it takes to get there. “We are just looking forward to a fresh year and everyone is eager to get the season started.” The Rats’ ‘fresh year’ will come with a couple of new faces, including Mason, who joins Ararat as A Grade coach for the first time. “Taylor has new ideas, especially compared to how the club has gone in the past,” Ms Dale said. “She has a different approach to things, and she is very versatile. “She will probably have the teams becoming a bit more fluid too.” Sharp-shooting veteran Megan Shea will return for a few matches. Shea has played more than 400 games with the club and Ms Dale believed her depth of knowledge would benefit players in all levels. “It is really nice, especially for the younger girls, to have someone with experience,” Ms Dale said. “Two of our under-17 players, Racquel Scott and Delaney McLoughlin, will also

be stepping up in a few of the A Grade matches. We don’t like players to be set in stone.” Player versatility, and a ‘fluid’ approach within the club, might give the side potential this season, but Mason said consistency is still crucial for Ararat’s success. “There is definitely room for improvement, but we are already working well and cohesively, which is good,” she said. “Consistency is a main focus. We are trying to run our legs out for all four quarters, not missing out on that last quarter. “So, we will continue to push our fitness. We are doing a Monday fitness session and a 45-minute session on Thursday before training. The team that is the fittest team is the one that is going to make it through.” Ararat will kick off its season against Warrack Eagles on April 13.

Ararat RSL Rats

Rats growing, building I

BY DEAN LAWSON

t’s going a bit far to suggest Ararat is a sleeping giant in Wimmera Football League.

The southeast club is a citybased force and has a history littered with competitive potency and success, some of it the stuff of country footy legend. The reality is, however, that the Rats have needed for several years to work hard to establish who and what they represent. Old walls generated by what appeared to be a sporting cult of personality came crumbling down years ago. Now there is a general feeling the Rats are building momentum through an embracing of community and Ararat representation. In short, this means watch out all other clubs in Wimmera league. When you get that type of community football formula right it tends to roll like a juggernaut across a competition. The Rats might well be a ‘sleeper’. Ararat coach Shane Fisher and president Jamie Toner, in preparing for the approaching season, both spoke about the club’s determination to be a flag-bearing organisation for the regional city and its community. “It’s all about trying to always

involve the whole community – about getting our junior competition, our sponsors and the general community on board. It’s not just about the club, it’s about Ararat,” Mr Toner said. “It is about building community confidence so people send their kids to and get involved in our club. Inevitably the key to success is having families that are keen to hang around. “It’s about always improving the public face of the club to our members, sponsors and the broader sport and social community of the region.” Patrons gained insight into the approach at a season launch and club get-together involving former Essendon star Dustin Fletcher at Alexandra Oval last week. Fisher said Ararat needed to continue working towards being acknowledged as well as being a strong club. “We have to get away from simply being known as a team of promising kids, we’re beyond that now. I want us to be known as highly competitive and hard to beat,” he said. “We changed some opinions in Wimmera league last year, which was pleasing as a coach and from a club perspective we need that

to continue. We don’t want to slip back. “I’ve coached for 18 years and I’m super impressed by the standard of footy. I really enjoying coaching Ararat.” Fisher said club preparations for the season were ‘tracking okay’ and was honest in saying he was unsure how the playing group, which finished sixth last season, was measuring up when compared with the same time last year. “The key this year is duplication of what we achieved last year and to make sure we go a few steps better,” he said. “One of the biggest positives is that we’ve kept nearly everyone on the list. “We’ve lost two players and we’ve brought in three or four recruits and have six or seven under-17s coming through. “We have a senior-team selection group that has gone up to about 30, and while that makes it challenging as a coach, it’s a terrific position to be in.” Newcomers include Callum Mendes, the third of the Mendes brothers to play for the Rats, and crafty ball reader Dylan Shelley and left-footer Todd Smith, who were on-field leaders at Corio in

Geelong last year. Dylan Gordge from Adelaide is also likely to be on a senior list and the Rats are looking forward to having Cody Lindsay and Cooper Heard free of under-18 pathway commitments. The club’s only major confirmed departure is Jake Robertson, who has gone to Navarre. The Rats have had solid hit-outs in practice matches against Gordon and Warrnambool and have an intra-club hit-out and camp next week. “I’ve been impressed by the work rate of the group,” Fisher said. “Our skills have improved again, we’re learning and getting better at our craft. “We haven’t been the hardest team in the past, but that improved last year and hopefully that continues. “Teams like Horsham and Southern Mallee Giants and others have been benchmarks and hard and physical and in the past year and a half we’ve been able to compete with that. “The club’s in a great position and a lot of boys are driven and keen to be successful at Ararat.” Ararat RSL and Wesfarmers Insurance are on board as major sponsors.

Kalkee Kees

Confidence is key K

BY LOTTE REITER

alkee netballers were hardhitting last year, and onlookers might be wondering what the Kees have in store this season.

With an impressive start to 2018, the Kees’ A Graders were uncompromising against their competitors, finishing the season with a 12-4 winloss ratio. But the team crashed and burned in the finals, losing by 13 points against Pimpinio, which raises questions that have followed through to this year. For some clubs, bowing out in the final stage is a matter of fitness – not being able to run through the four quarters. For others, it is pressure – players succumb to the intensity of a finals play-off and an overwhelming desire to hold onto that elusive grand-final status. Ask any coach and they will tell you the goal is to come out on top. Nobody is shy about it. And although returning A Grade coach Jaymi O’Connor said the Kees well and truly have what it takes, she said a focus on building player confidence and a strong positional set-up on court might be what sits between Kalkee and a premiership. “We would like to win finals and

get up to where we were last year,” she said. “Three of our senior grades made finals last year too, which is something we are really proud of – we like to celebrate achievements of the whole club. “We probably need to focus on our confidence though, and the inclusion of stronger mid-court options, which we have more of this season. “Hayley Thomas is coming back, which is good because we didn’t have a lot of older girls last year and it helps bring that extra confidence and maturity. “She also adds height in the goal ring and takes off a bit of pressure.” O’Connor said the side had strong player numbers in all levels, with a mix of senior experience and ‘young guns’. Adding to the line-up is Rianna Kuhne, a mid-quarter from Dimboola. With Thursday night training sessions, O’Connor said furthering the Kees’ established fitness was a pre-season focus. “We have kept quite a few players from last year, and a lot of them have played together before, so it is good to build on what we did last season,” she said. “We are a pretty fit side.

“We will be focusing on fitness in training like most clubs and trying to get into shape. “We have worked hard on our fitness and that is probably our biggest strength because it allows us to run out all four quarters.” O’Connor said there would also be a club effort on giving younger players the opportunity to play in upper levels. “We will bring up a couple of girls from B Grade and will have some under-17s running with the A Graders, which will be good,” she said. “We are just ready for the season to begin.”

Kalkee Kees

Kalkee to sport a new look H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham District football fans would be far too wise to fall into a trap of believing perennial force Kalkee might slip back in the field this season.

Sure the Kees have lost a few players from the team that took on Harrow-Balmoral in a grand final last year. And sure, the club appears likely to present a relatively newlook this season. But Kalkee has a historical habit of thumbing its nose at speculation and there is a reason it has easily one of the best records of any club in the competition. Coach Stuart Farr, while wary of what pre-season developments might mean for his group, also provided insight into what made the Kees tick. “There is always great support. It’s a very strong club from top to bottom that consistently preaches high standards on and off the field,” he said. Farr is taking sole responsibility of leading Kalkee this season, a move that will free up his joint coaching partner from last year Hamish Exell to concentrate purely on playing. “He had a great year last year and now, free of coaching responsibilities to pursue farm-business and

other interests, I’d expect him to have an even better one,” Farr said. “We will be a little bit different this year. A few blokes have left town, others have decided to pull the pin or had a change of heart about play. “It’s been a bit tough on the recruiting side, but that’s footy. “But we have good depth coming through from the juniors and other guys are going to have an opportunity, which is always good.” The absence of the likes of Hugo Papst, who is playing with Sebastopol in Ballarat, Lachie Exell, contemplating a shift, Steve Schultz, hanging up the boots, and Harrison Wentworth, staying in Geelong, will leave some holes in the playing list. But Farr said circumstances would also open the door for the likes of Daniel Launer, Daniel Schache and Jacob Harris, who all missed last year’s grand final with injury, and a group of rising young players. “We also have a few blokes coming in such as Riley Bryan from Horsham Saints, Cooper Price, who has had a year off, and Bailey Pilgrim from Laharum. We’ve also had Connor Gould from Noradjuha-Quantong come along and Jamie Byrne who has been playing up north,” he said. “There’s been a bit of movement from the young blokes coming

through and we’re expecting them to take on senior footy this year.” Farr mentioned the likes of emerging Colby Ledgar, Tom Glover, Jonah Connelly, Ben Bolwell and Jake Mills who had all been regulars at senior pre-season training sessions. “We’re not going to be a tall side, but I’m confident we will be able to play to our strengths through a running game,” he said. “We held our own for three quarters against a big, strong Ultima side in a practice match and the signs were really good. “The boys didn’t shirk an issue, which I was really happy with. “Style of play will be very similar to last season and with the juniors and recruits will bring speed and enthusiasm. “We’ll have an emphasis on applying pressure and using the ball well both offensively and defensively. “We will probably have to manufacture goals differently and I will be asking our onballers and wingmen to hit the scoreboard. “I’m expecting us to be unpredictable, which I believe will be a real strength.” Kalkee had a final dress rehearsal for the season in a match against Dimboola last week and will play reigning premier Harrow-Balmoral in the opening round.

Players ready for round one T

BY DAVID BERRY

here will be some very nervous and excited Volleyball Horsham members this week as they prepare for round one of Victorian Volleyball League.

Among three teenagers making their premier women’s debut for Phantoms against Victoria University on Saturday will be Volleyball Horsham academy athlete Tamikah Dockrill. Dockrill has improved significantly in the past six months and did enough at a recent Warrnambool tournament to retain her spot as number-two middle blocker. She is beginning to build a good rapport with setter Kara Johnson and the pair are starting to form a strong combination. Playing in the same A Grade team has helped build this understanding between setter and middle attacker. Another academy member making a Phantoms debut is Lloyd Baker. Baker is another example of a player who has developed significantly during the past six months. He will line up in the division two Phantoms Purple team as a starting middle blocker. Apart from improving, Baker has grown, which helps when you play a middle-blocking role.

He is understanding the game better and he’ll certainly have fun with last season’s grand final most-valuable player Tom Hermans setting to him. Returning after a year off will be Eadie Garth-Lindsay. She will come back in through the division-three women’s team to ease her back into the swing of things. The side is looking forward to having Eadie back in the fold as she brings good energy and experience to a young team. Apart from the debutants, Volleyball Horsham members Shaun Bray, Will Saligari, Cleo Baker, Laelah Robertson, Delaney Wills, Nathan Berry, Jack Hannan, Kara Johnson and Tim Popple will all be in action on Saturday. With the women’s division-two team having a bye, the likes of Chloe Brown, Hannah Whyte and Emily Hannah will have to wait for a Horsham round on April 13 and 14 to make their season debut. With 15 players and former players in Matthew Berry, Nick Adamson, Cam Robinson, Kimberley Crabtree and Rebecca Allan participating in State League this season, it brings the number of Volleyball Horsham members involved to 20, which vindicates the development, time and effort of all coaches, families and parents.

Funding for sports projects Wimmera-Mallee sporting organisations are beneficiaries of latest Federal Government Community Sports Infrastructure Grants. Yarriambiack Shire Council will use a $249,290 grant for a surface replacement project at Warracknabeal Leisure Centre. Hopetoun and Beulah-based Southern Mallee Giants Football Netball Club will use $53,800

for netball court upgrades and Horsham Little Athletics Centre $22,000 for an equipment shed. Federal Sports Minister Bridget McKenzie said the government understood the country’s success and prowess as a sporting nation started with grassroots sport. “That’s why we have focused our investment on grassroots sporting facilities,” she said.

Nationals candidate for Mallee Anne Webster said better sporting infrastructure would encourage more participation by all sectors of the community and result in improved mental and physical health. “Increasing participation is a key goal of the Liberal Nationals Government and we want to get more Australians more active, more often,” she said.

Ace talent recognised

orsham teenage tennis ace Jess McDonald, 17, will represent Victoria at School Sport Australia Pizzey Cup championships in Adelaide in May.

Jess McDonald

The year-12 St Brigid’s College student made the 16-member School Sport Victoria under-18 team after a nomination and trial process. The championship will be from May 4 to 11. McDonald follows in the footsteps of her older sister Steffi, who won selection in the under-18 state school team two years ago and is now studying in the United States of America on a college scholarship and progressing towards a professional career. McDonald, also keen to pursue an overseas scholarship and heading to America early next year, said she was happy to win a place in the team after being an emergency last year. “I was surprised but happy with the result. I play tennis with these girls all the time so it was great to make the team,” she said. “It’s been different without having Steffi to have a hit with.”

Martin shines in international competition Horsham teenage tenpin bowling sensation Sophie Martin has finished in the world’s top 10 junior female players after international competition in France. Martin placed 10th overall in a girls’ singles section of World Junior Bowling Championships while competing in an Australian team.

The Wimmera Sports Star of the Year created a stir early in the championships by finishing in the top three of her 24player section with a score of 1316 from six games. But seven bowlers competing in squad B the following day overtook her score, placing her out of a finals equation and

pushing her down the rankings. Ultimately she was only 58 points short of playing in the finals. Martin also partnered Amy Shoesmith in doubles and the pair finished midfield. Across all competition during the championships Martin finished 19th.

Mighty finish to Stawell tennis Stawell Tennis Club’s Friday night competition drew to a close with one of the competition’s most exciting grand finals in recent memory. The contest was packed full of drama and remained undecided until the last groundstroke for the night made its way into the net. Stawell Goldmine capping off an unlikely foray into the top two was victorious by the barest of margins over Stawell Toyota. Stawell Toyota jumped out of the blocks, winning five of the first seven sets, with Brian O’Shannessy, who was best player in the grand final, leading the charge. O’Shannessy combined with the two Shanes, Freeland and Pevitt, for 6-1, 6-0 victories. Stawell club legend Jade Cross did her best to inspire her Stawell Goldmine team-mates with her two wins against the tide, keeping the team in the contest. It was through the middle sets that Stawell Goldmine made its move, notching up four wins in the five matches on the back of some terrific play from Maddi Rickard, Emily Davis and

youngster Theo Browne. Moving into the mixed sets the stage was set for a barn-burning finish, with both teams locked on 53 games apiece. It was going to be a case of which team could hold their nerve. Henry Clough set the tone with a thumping 6-0 win in the singles, and that coupled with another Brian O’Shannessy masterclass. This time he paired with Simone Grace for a 6-2 win and gave Stawell Toyota the ascendency. Theo Browne and sub Carel Chang answered back with a 6-2 win for Stawell Goldmine and with just one set remaining, a mixed clash between both teams’ top players, Stawell Toyota clung onto a five-game lead. Stawell Goldmine skippers Andrew Dunn and Jade Cross threw caution to the wind, blasting winner after winner en route to a 6-0 triumph in an incredible finish, providing their side with an improbable one game victory. Stawell Goldmine players rejoiced while their counterparts were left to lament a lost opportunity. – Joel Freeland

Gift winners to defend titles

tawell Gift 2018 champions Elizabeth ‘EJ’ Forsyth and Jacob Despard have confirmed they will return to defend their titles at the historic Easter event this year.

Both will attempt to win back-to-back, a feat achieved only by Bill Howard in 1966 and 1967. Hosted by Stawell Athletic Club, the 138th Stawell Gift Carnival is from April 20 to 22. Despard was favourite to win the open 120-metre Open Gift last year and did not disappoint. “I’m looking forward to coming back and experiencing my favourite meeting for the year as defending champion,” he said. “Training is the best it’s ever been and I’m tracking to really turn the heat up on Easter Monday and defend my title.” The Tasmanian recorded a personal-best time of 10.40 seconds over 100 metres at a Sydney Track Classic last month. “I’m expecting my handicap to be a difficult ask to win from, but I believe I’ve done the work and I have definitely improved a lot since last season,” Despard said. “One advantage I’ll have over most of the field is having won before. “I’ll be starting behind them and they all have to run scared knowing I’ll be coming

at the end. So, I’m already in front mentally. Going back-to-back is something most winners would dream of, it would be unreal.” Forsyth, who won last year’s Women’s Gift in only her second visit to Stawell and after a near-miss in the heats, is more used to running on sand in her home town on the Gold Coast than grass. The World Surf Lifesaving sprint beachflags champion said her training had been going well. “It has been a pretty long season for me but I’m super excited to be heading back down to Stawell again this year,” she said. “I made some very special memories that Easter Monday and winning the Stawell Gift was such an incredible feeling that I will hold with me forever. “I love the atmosphere at Central Park and I can’t wait to experience it again.” The carnival includes three days of activities and entertainment. There will be fashions on the field on Easter Saturday with cash prize money and gifts up for grabs. Easter Sunday is the event’s Family Day with a Cadbury Easter Egg Hunt headlining a schedule of child-friendly activities. Tickets are available online at www. stawellgift.com/event-guide/buy-tickets.

Tigers sneak in for Homers tester J

BY DEAN LAWSON

ung Tigers will be raging underdogs in Horsham Cricket Association’s A Grade grand final after securing a place in the season play-off.

The Tigers will take on perennial favourites Homers in a showdown at Horsham City Oval this weekend after beating Horsham Saints in an 11th-hour semi-final upset. Jung Tigers have moved through the season as a third-stringing outfit behind the Pigeons and Saints but produced a crucial victory when it mattered. Homers also shored up its place in the season finale, beating Rupanyup-Minyip in the other semi-final. The Tigers have relied heavily on a relatively long batting list to maintain their place in the top four this season, but last weekend at Dimboola it was their bowlers who did the damage. Dimboola has traditionally been home to a ‘good’ cricket wicket, offering something for ball as well as bat and results reflected as much. The Saints opted to bat first on Saturday and as par for the course for much of the season had a

strong start with Gary Davidson, 30, and Cory Smith, 43, sharing a 60-run opening stand. But the introduction of leg-spinning all-rounder and skipper Angus Adams led to Davidson’s downfall and the wickets of Saints captain Austin Smith and Mark Crafter quickly followed. Off-spinner Jake McLean and medium pacers David Puls and Joel Pymer then shared success as Saints wickets tumbled until the side was eventually all out for 143. The Tigers then chased down the target, losing three wickets in the process and in-form Brett Jensz unbeaten at the wicket on 89. Wickets galore tumbled in the other semi-final, at Horsham City Oval, and another upset appeared in the wind when Homers were all out for 138. Homers too had a good start, with Adam Atwood, 52, and Simon Hopper, 28, enjoying a 48run opening stand. But medium-pacers Clinton Midgley, 5-41, and Mark Mbofana, 4-53, conspired to rattle through the Pigeons for only 138. But the winning runs, seemingly so close for the chasing side, soon appeared miles away for the Blue Panthers, who crashed under

JOBS BOARD

the combined pressure of newball duo Craig Britten and Jarred Combe. Britten did much of the early damage, capturing 4-17, Combe finished with 4-40 and leftarmer Eddie Landwehr chimed in with a couple of scalps as Rupanyup-Minyip collapsed to be all out for 100. Mbofana’s 54 in the middle order stood out like a beacon amid the carnage. This week’s grand final will feature a smorgasbord of batting and bowling talent. Both sides have potent and dogged batting lists as well as a proven mix of bowling options. The action starts at Horsham City Oval at 11am on Saturday.

veryone involved in the ownership of a horse dares to dream – to make the track, win a race or two in the bush and maybe even rise through the ranks to open company, the classic events and cups.

Barry, Yvonne and Aaron Dunn have been in the racing game for more than 40 years and have been lucky enough to experience one such ride of a lifetime with their pacer Dee Dees Dream. It began in January 2002 when Dee Dees Dream debuted in a $1000 restricted event for two-year-old pacers at Warrnambool. The youngster made short work of three rivals, leading from barrier to post to score by 13 metres in the leisurely mile rate of 2.09.3 over the sprint trip. A moderate assignment by any measure, but it was the start of a racing career that spanned more than six years, until ‘Deedees’ retirement in August, 2008. His record of 117 starts, 38 wins, 21 minor placings and stakes of $412,971 include success in a Vicbred Super

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

Series Final, Victoria Sires Classic, Tasmanian Pacers Derby, 11 victories at Moonee Valley and multiple wins in Tasmania and South Australia. Dee Dees Dream contested the 2005 and 2008 editions of the Horsham Pacing Cup, but finished out of the money on both occasions. “It’s hard to win a race anytime anywhere,” Barry Dunn said. “But even more so with the country cups in Victoria.” While the Dunn’s don’t have a hometown cup in their trophy cabinet they continue to live the dream and every year bring new youngsters into the stable. “We’ll enter Shady Azz and Sporty Azz in the two-year race in Horsham on Sunday,” Barry said. “They probably won’t be good enough to beat the better bred ones going around, but they need the experience and it will stand them in good stead for when we find something more suitable.” So like the Dunns, Horsham Harness Racing Club encourages family and friends to pack a picnic rug, hamper

and Esky and enjoy a great community event, on the spacious lawns of the Horsham Racing Centre this Sunday. Club president Justin Lane urged people to make the most of free entry during the event. “For the first time on cup day, the gates will be open free of charge and patrons will be greeted by tin rattlers for the Naked Farmer’s nominated charity, Royal Flying Doctor Service Mental Health Unit,” he said. “Apart from all the action out on the track, you’ll enjoy a vibrant atmosphere with live music, sweeps, giveaways and prizes including a chance to win $4000 in the Dunn Ezy Seed Cleaning ‘Ownerforaday’ competition. “There’s plenty of free activities to keep the kids entertained. “The jumping castle, gladiator ring, giant slide and basketball throw cater for all ages, and one lucky youngster will win an Ipad mini. “So get your backside trackside – seeya Sunday!”
