WHATEVER IT TAKES: Pomonal’s Billie Wethers, 12, will donate some of her bone marrow to her younger brother Bodhi, 6, in the hope it will prevent his health from further deteriorating due to an extremely rare disease. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

‘I love him’

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

fter several years of searching for answers, Pomonal couple Belinda and Tim Wethers left Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital in July in utter despair.

When their son Bodhi, 6, was diagnosed with alpha-mannosidosis – a rare, incurable and degenerative storage disorder affecting about 200 people worldwide – doctors ‘pretty much said there was nothing they could do’. “We left the hospital with no hope,” Mrs Wethers said. “They offered to hook us up with Make-A-Wish. It was devastating.” Refusing to accept nothing could be done to stop Bodhi’s condition progressing, the Wethers embarked on their own research. They formed a relationship with the founder of a rare diseases organisation in New Zealand, which resulted in an appointment with an oncologist and ultimately, hope.

John Forman started not-for-profit Rare Disorders NZ in 2000 as a way to help families navigate the health and disability system, while promoting research into rare diseases. “He had two twins with alpha-mannosidosis, but they weren’t diagnosed until their late teens,” Mrs Wethers said. “When we told him the doctors said there was nothing they could do, he got quite angry and said there was something we could do. “He called a contact at the Royal Children’s Hospital and told us we needed to get a referral to a certain oncologist, who could talk to us about a bone marrow transplant. It was too late for his kids to get one, but he has dedicated his life to helping people like us.” Alpha-mannosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder, characterised by an inability to properly break down certain groups of complex sugars in the body’s cells. The accumulation of waste affects

from the people we’ve spoken to, it’s pretty much his only hope. “If we didn’t do a bone marrow transplant, he’d be in a wheelchair in his 20s with a likelihood of death around 30 or 40, maybe a little later. “Cognitively, he will also continue to decline, as the disease leads to like a childhood dementia. “There is only a small window if you’re having a bone transplant, which is why the sooner they get a diagnosis, the better chance they have. “Most of the families we spoke to said their children would have passed away without the transplant.” After weighing up the risks and making the decision to push ahead with the transplant, Mr and Mrs Wethers questioned how they could speed up the process. After discovering Bodhi’s best match would be a sibling, they spoke to their other four children, Charlie, 14, Billie, 12, Dusty, 10, and Tully, 5, about undergoing testing. “When it came to getting a blood test

many of the body’s organs and systems. Signs and symptoms vary, but often include mild to moderate intellectual disability, hearing loss, weakened immune system, distinctive facial features and ataxia, a failure of muscle control leading to movement disorders. Mrs Wethers said while a bone marrow transplant did not offer any guarantees, anecdotal evidence showed it was the best chance Bodhi had to stop his condition progressing. “Through a Facebook support group, we have been able to form relationships with other families experiencing alpha-mannosidosis or similar conditions and have learnt of their success with bone marrow transplants,” she said. “We’re hoping if Bodhi has one in the near future, it will replace his marrow with an enzyme that actually does work and should stop any further progression. “With his disease being so rare, there is obviously a lot of unknown, but

they were all a bit nervous of the needle, but Billie was probably the most anxious,” Mrs Wethers said. “Of the four, Billie was the only 100-percent match, the others were all a 20-percent match. “When Billie came up as a match, we told her she didn’t have to do it, but she said of course she would, because Bodhi needs it. She said she would do whatever it took to support him. “All of the kids were really brave.” Billie, who is in year seven at Marian College in Ararat, said she was happy to be able to help her brother. “I didn’t think it was going to be me. I thought I’d be the last person to do it,” she said. “It’s pretty surprising and overwhelming at times but I’m glad I can help him. “He’s funny and cute and I love him.” Continued page 5

Hope as study shows pandemic hit

evelopment leaders expect further easing of COVID-19 restrictions to turn around figures reflecting the impact of the pandemic on investment generated by people visiting Wimmera-Mallee waterways.

Wimmera Development Association project manager Mark Fletcher said the onset of warm spring weather would also be a major catalyst for opening waterways to visitors. “Local markets, activities and festivals all play a significant part in building stronger communities and it is great to see restrictions easing to allow planning for these activities with more certainty,” he said. “The flow-on benefits to towns and regions cannot be underestimated, from both economic and social senses.” Mr Fletcher’s comments came as latest findings of a study into the importance of recreational and environmental water in the region painted a grim picture of the past 12 to 18 months. The study showed a loss of more than $3.4-million, or 12 percent, during 2020-21. Details showed the

figure dropping from $28.46-million in 2019-20, which had already represented a 15 percent drop from the previous year, to $24.94-million. But the fifth annual Wimmera-southern Mallee: Socio-economic value of recreational and environmental water report also revealed that more than double the people in the region turned to holidays closer to home. ‘Local’ recreational water users jumped from about 20 to more than 37 percent in 2020-21. The pandemic started having a major impact on people visiting the region’s water bodies in March, 2020, through the cancellation of many Easter and autumn events. This also included the closure of caravan parks and the banning, apart from a few exceptions, of overnight visitors at camping grounds at lakes, rivers and weir pools. These restrictions continued until the end of the 2019-20 year. Wimmera Development Association led the study and Mr Fletcher said the process continued a combined effort with local government and community groups to quantify the social and

economic benefits of recreational and environmental water. He said key estimates from the latest report showed there were more than 251,694 people at waterways in the study period, down from 280,000 in 2019-20. There were more than 157,000 visit nights, down from 175,000.

Interstate visitation

Mr Fletcher said a huge drop in interstate visitation to lakes and weir pools and a total absence of overseas visitors fell from a ‘pre-pandemic’ 13.7 percent of total participants in 2018-19 to 4.3 percent in 2020-21. He added a decrease in recreational water users of 10.8 percent in 2020-21 compounded a 14 percent decrease recorded in 2019-20. “More significantly, the number of overnight visitors decreased an estimated 18.2 percent in 2020-21 after a 39 percent decrease in 2019-20,” he said. “However, higher average daily spending levels – after limited opportunities to eat out, travel and participate in sport and social activities – at several lakes and weir pools located

in, or near, towns with more extensive ‘visitor services’ such as hotelmotel accommodation, cafés and restaurants, and other retail outlets, were recorded. “In 2020-21 pandemic restrictions were periodic and, although regional Victoria was often exempt from strict lockdowns imposed on metropolitan Melbourne, the whole year was plagued with uncertainty and a degree of travel hesitancy. “The report has also highlighted the important contribution to the region’s towns by providing enhanced amenity and a critical outlet for physical and mental relaxation, improving the overall health and wellbeing of residents and visitors.” Wimmera Development Association has worked with Street Ryan and Associates on the study, engaging with recreational water participants, committees of management, sporting clubs and other groups involved in recreational water activity. The State Government’s Water for Victoria program funded the 2020-21 study through Wimmera Catchment Management Authority, Department

of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, GWMWater and Wimmera and southern Mallee councils. Mr Fletcher said work over five years had provided important information supporting capital investment and grant applications of about $10-million, with some applications still pending. He said organisations such as Wimmera CMA, GWMWater and DELWP had used the study’s findings for future planning. GWMWater had also used results when planning allocation of pipeline water to recreational lakes and weir pools. Mr Fletcher said while overall participation was understandably lower, the percentage of local recreational water users had jumped markedly. He said the percentage of water users from elsewhere in Victoria – including country and metropolitan areas – fell from about 54 percent to 47 percent during the same period. “The percentage of recreational water users from interstate and overseas fell by more than two-thirds – from about 14 percent to about four percent,” he said.

Kealy fears for PCPs

SPOOKING IT UP: The annual worldwide acknowledgement of Halloween, or All Saints Eve, will be upon us on Saturday night and prompting many to embrace and have fun with all that’s spooky. Horsham’s Holt family is well prepared to get into the ‘spirit’ of a contemporary version of Halloween, which is all about dressing up. Pictured, from left, are Joe, Pamela, Alexis, Stina, William and Rob Holt preparing for the occasion. Many historians suggest Halloween represents an amalgam of Christian celebration and ancient Celtic festivals. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy fears a mental-health pandemic will grow if the government dismantles Victoria’s Primary Care Partnerships. Ms Kealy, the state opposition spokesperson for mental health, said the government had announced its intention to abolish PCPs from April 2022 after years of uncertainty. She said the decision to abolish Victoria’s PCPs came after the government had initially intended to sever funding and service agreements on December 31, 2019. “However PCPs received ‘stay of execution’ letters extending their service agreements until June 30, 2020 and this funding was further extended due to their work on COVID-19,” she said. Ms Kealy said in a joint statement with shadow health spokeswoman Georgie Crozier that PCPs and their 850 partners had been ‘the silent hand that supports the good health and wellbeing of local communities’. “In some areas of regional Victoria, PCPs provided the only government-funded frontline mental-health support available to regional Victorians, who have some of the highest suicide rates in the state,” she said.

EES UPDATE A range of environmental and socio-economic studies continue to be completed for the Avonbank EES.

Radiation – Impact Study During the last quarter WIM has delivered a Radiation study that investigated the radiological impacts of the proposed operation on the environment and members of the public.

PROJECT UPDATE WIM Resource Pty Ltd (WIM) continues to work and progress several environmental and socioeconomic studies as part of the Environment Effects Statement (EES) process, as well as progress the definitive feasibility study for the Avonbank Mineral Sands Project (Avonbank Project). During the last quarter, major EES studies, including Air Quality, Radiation, and Visual Amenity studies have been completed. WIM continued to hold several webinars that discuss these studies. The webinars are held as part of WIM’s continued approach to seek feedback from stakeholders. The Avonbank Project test pit rehabilitation study is ongoing with the crop continuing to grow well over the rehabilitated areas.

A specialist health physicists experienced in these types of assessments was engaged by WIM and has undertaken a very thorough and detailed assessment. The radiation study found that there would not be a significant impact on the environment, nor members of the public. A webinar recording is available on our website.

Landscape and Visual Amenity – Impact Study WIM also delivered a Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment, investigating the potential impacts from the project on visual and landscape amenity.

Coodabeens sign on with 3WM W

“We’ll be taking the show on the road at times, broadcasting from local footy grounds, sampling the canteens and meeting the people of our great state”

immera radio listeners and sports-humour fans are in for a treat next year with iconic Coodabeen Champions set to join 3WM programming in a switch to ACE Radio Broadcasters.

The Coodabeens, part of sportsradio culture since the early 1980s and one of the most enduring radio teams in the country, have signed on with the network. The move represents a major coup for regional Victorian radio and the Wimmera-Mallee, as well as ACE’s Melbourne 3MP station. The Coodabeen Champions, including Jeff Richardson, Simon Whelan, Ian Cover, Greg Champion, Billy Baxter, Andy Bellairs and ‘Torch’ McGee, are coming off backto-back seasons at the top of a radio ratings ladder. The team has built a remarkable following since its program first aired on 3RRR in 1981. In the four decades since, the Coodabeens have also established a reputation as broadcasters, authors, podcasters, live performers and all-round entertainers. ACE Radio chief executive Mark Taylor said the Coodabeens’ brand of humour would be a great fit for 3WM and the network.

ACE WELCOME: The Coodabeen Champions team, from left, Ian Cover, Andy Bellairs, Jeff Richardson, ‘Torch’ McGee, Greg Champion and Billy Baxter. “The Coodabeens are a household name, not only in Melbourne but right across the state,” he said. “We’re very excited about them presenting their show on Friday afternoons when people are winding down from work and gearing up for the footy.” Coodabeens ‘vice-captain’ Ian Cover said the team was enthused by the prospect of broadcasting to listen-

ers across the network’s 10 stations. “ACE offers the best of all worlds – they have a strong heritage in communities throughout regional Victoria and 3MP is a growing Melbourne radio brand. It also has a suite of platforms which allow us to connect with listeners everywhere,” he said. “We’ll be taking the show on the road at times, broadcasting from local footy grounds, sampling the canteens

and meeting the people of our great state.” ACE Radio Horsham general manager Brendan O’Loughlin said the development was exciting for the region and its listeners. “Anyone who has lived in or visited the Wimmera-Mallee would be well aware of our communities’ strong association with and passion for sport,” he said.

“This announcement is a really nice addition to our already generous sport offering on 3WM. “Listeners will be even more excited that weekend sport on 3WM now starts a bit earlier as a lead-in to a great mixture of national and local football and netball and sport in general.” The Coodabeens’ ‘change in guernseys’ from the ABC represents what industry insiders are jokingly calling ‘one of the most exciting trade deals in radio football history’ and comes hot on the heels of AFL player trades. The team is on a 20-week end-ofseason break, after which it plans to put in a light ‘pre-season – or not’. Fans will be able to listen to the Coodabeen Champions from 4pm to 6pm Fridays on 3WM, and across the ACE Radio network and 3MP in Melbourne from March 2022. The program will also be available via the 3WM website.

Transplant hope for Bodhi, family From page 1 Mrs Wethers said Billie had been ‘amazing’ throughout the process. She said testing revealed Billie was a carrier, but as she had only one copy of the gene, she could still donate. “The disease is a recessive one, which means Tim and I are both carriers for it,” she said. “We haven’t had the other kids tested yet. We know it’s unlikely they have the disease, but they could be carriers, so we’ll get to that at some stage. It won’t affect them now, but it will in the future when they’re looking to start families.” Mrs Wethers said she and her husband always knew ‘something else was going on’ with Bodhi, but could not pinpoint what it was. “He started walking at 18 months but he never crawled, he kind of just bumshuffled,” she said. “That’s when we also discovered he was deaf. He’d be crying for us but couldn’t hear us yelling out to him. “For many, alpha-mannosidosis starts with hip dysplasia, then hearing difficulties and global learning difficulties. “We requested a referral for a genetic

appointment because we felt there were underlying issues we’d been missing.” Mrs Wethers said a chance spotting of an article about a child with a rare disease in a Ballarat newspaper helped shed some light. “As I was reading the story, I realised Bodhi ticked every box,” she said. “We had an appointment with the Royal Children’s Hospital via Webex, and we showed them the story, which helped them fine-tune what to test for.” Mrs Wethers said she wanted to share Bodhi’s story with The Weekly Advertiser in the hope it might help another family. “Maybe if they read this and notice some of these symptoms in their own children, it could help with a diagnosis,” she said. “Bodhi’s hearing screen as a baby was normal but it had degenerated in a couple of years to severe hearing loss. He didn’t sleep well, had sleep apnoea, for a long time he had constant diarrhoea and as a baby he had continual chest and ear infections, another alarm bell. “His symptoms also include muscle tightening, significant learning difficulties and severe behaviour – which we’re not sure if it’s related or not.

“He also has what they describe as ‘coarse facial features’ which is why we initially thought maybe Down syndrome. An enlarged forehead is another identifying factor of alpha-mannosidosis.” Mrs Wethers said Bodhi had undergone a range of tests and treatments in the past few months and was meeting with his oncologist yesterday to discuss when the bone marrow transplant could occur. He also had casts placed on both legs because his muscles were starting to shorten. Mrs Wethers, who is principal at Pomonal Primary School, said although Bodhi had a long road ahead, he remained in good spirits. “He’s been lucky enough to be still going to school throughout the pandemic,” she said. “We have 17 students and they are all so supportive of him. “Bodhi loves looking after his chickens and his schedule revolves around putting out the bins at home and at school – he loves it. “We are hoping after the transplant he will be able to live a positive, happy life.”

Get rules, message right W

e’ve rounded the bend for the run home in the fight against COVID-19 and we’re now pondering how best to develop and modify responses to meet similar threats in the future.

While the war against a nasty virus isn’t over, indications are that we are in a good position to ultimately prevail, to an acceptable level at least, and try to get on with our lives. But what should society management or governance look like when confronted with any ongoing national or state publichealth emergencies? That’s a primary subject of debate raging across Victoria this week with the State Government outlining a bill to permanently replace the current State of Emergency, expiring on December 15. As a society that prides itself on and

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson spruiks the ideals of democratic process, while at the same time demands immediate, appropriate, efficient and effective responses to emergencies, this debate is critically important. Getting this aspect of governance right is in establishing a balance – where the majority of people are comfortable with how the rules meet ideals of both positions. One of the great enemies of getting such a formula or equation to a point of general acceptance are the vagaries of language and how easy it is to be loose, lazy, naïve, arrogant or assumptive in passing on details to diverse communities.

If a lack of transparency is the ultimate enemy in the democratic process, then ambiguity in direction and messaging runs a close second. What we’ve experienced in the past 18 months should have provided a lesson to all Australian leaders, at all levels, about the dangers of ambiguous direction. In colloquial parlons, we often refer to this idea of getting everything right before presenting it to broader audiences as ensuring we cross the Ts and dot the Is. But it is more than that. It is about being clever enough to not only understand a myriad of contexts that might appear, but also conveying a message to everyone that cannot be misunderstood, misinterpreted, or, importantly, used for political advantage through ‘spin’. Language represents the greatest of weapons in any fight and getting it right leads to winning the people.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Local laws ‘not too bad’

SIR, – Re: a letter from Brian R. Basham, The Weekly Advertiser 20-10-21. In my opinion, some of those proposed new local laws for your shire are really not that bad. For instance, leaking downpipes can lead to white-ant problems and there are not many city councils that condone more than two dogs per household. Twice in the past month I have had to endure tasting spray drift – probably Roundup – from nearby properties and not for just five minutes either, and then some time ago, the most disgusting smell from a neighbour’s septic. Complaining to my shire was a useless exercise. Be thankful yours is a progressive council that hopefully has the interests of the wider community and the environment in mind; after all, we are 21 years into a new century but by some standards, 21 years behind the times. We have had similar local laws in place here for 10 years, but you might just try taking a Google-walk in my area before you consider complaining. Catherine Selwood Miram

First-aid outposts

SIR, – Regional hospitals in Victoria are fast becoming first-aid outposts to a central hospital because they can’t attract staff. J. McInerney Horsham

Gwen surrounded for her 90th birthday Haven’s Gwen Timmins has marked her 90th birthday in style, celebrating with family and friends at a gathering in Horsham. Twenty Timmins family members and friends enjoyed lunch at the White Hart Hotel on October 17, although COVID-19 restrictions prevented some members from

attending. Mrs Timmins was treated to her favourite cake, a ginger fluff, made by family friend Jayne Dorward. Mrs Timmins and her late husband John have four children, Susan Olston, Donald Timmins, Catherine Olston and David Timmins. The couple also has seven grandchildren and five

great-grandchildren, with another on the way. Mrs Timmins’ daughter Catherine said her mother enjoyed the celebration. She said among the highlights was a ‘lovely bouquet of flowers’ from Australian world champion woodcutter, David Foster, of Tasmania. “Mum and dad first met him

years ago in Tasmania at his hall of fame,” she said. “His heart is as huge as he is, and he kept in touch with mum and dad and would catch up with them every year when he attended the Wimmera Machinery Field Days. “He was unable to attend the party due to COVID restrictions.”

Employee hunt for humming village

istoric Wimmera wine village Great Western is on the hunt for workers as plans for a major multi-million-dollar motel with restaurant and rooftop bar and precinct get underway.

Great Western Enterprises chief executive Bruce Ahchow confirmed the Western Highway town was looking for employees to meet a spike in economic growth and expansion. “Five years ago we started business in Great Western and even with the impact of restrictions of COVID-19, our businesses have continued to expand,” he said. “We have some grand plans, we need staff to help our vision come to fruition.”

Great Western Enterprises is custodian of Seppelt Great Western and its historic underground cellars and function centre. It also owns and operates Great Western Hotel, Salingers café, Great Western General Store, Great Western Motel, Great Western Villas and Visit Great Western – Bus Line. It is now in the process of working with architects and developers to establish the 80-room motel, which will join the rear of Salingers Café and provide the backbone to a planned Cubitt Street wine and food precinct. “We always knew how special Great Western was,” Mr Ahchow said. “Every local will tell you how special Great Western is, everyone who visits will tell you how special Great Western is. We just want to share it

“We want them to stay another day, another two days, to take the time to truly explore our region and head home with stories to share with their friends, so their friends then visit. “During the past few years with COVID-19 restrictions on travel, the true value of the tourism dollar has been realised. This new development will also be able to host major conferences, encouraging more people to stay in the region.” Mr Ahchow said the project involved an ‘amazing, passionate team’. “They all love Great Western as much as I do, but we now need more staff,” he said. “Last summer was the busiest in the history of Seppelt Wines. We have never had more people head under-

with as many people as we can. There is nowhere in Australia that can offer what this region has, but time and again, we have found lack of suitable accommodation being one of the major aspects that holds back further growth. So, we have taken action. “We have purchased land and are working with our architects, council and developers to bring our plans to reality.” The business expects the project to take about a year to gain all necessary approvals and between four and five years to complete. “This project is really exciting for the Grampians,” Mr Ahchow said. “Currently, we notice a lot of our visitors are day-trippers, because they are unable to find accommodation.

ground into the cellars and we have never poured more beer at the pub or cooked more meals. “The Salinger kitchen garden was stripped of fresh produce every morning and delivered on a plate. “We are on the search for baristas, chefs, cooks, sommeliers, tour guides, cleaners, wait staff, accredited bus drivers, front-of-house staff. If you are looking for work, we want to speak to you and see where we can fit you into our business. “There are many career opportunities available within the Great Western Enterprises team. “We have full-time, part-time and casual positions available in Great Western, Ararat and Halls Gap.”

TOUCHING THE SKY: Teenager Roland Brooke can now pilot an aircraft solo. He is pictured at Horsham Flying Club headquarters at Horsham aerodrome. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Young pilot earns wings Murtoa College year-nine student Roland Brooke has set his sights on a career in aviation after earning his solo ‘wings’. The teenager, still too young to drive a car, celebrated his 15th birthday earlier this month by flying solo for the first time and getting his solo-pilot licence. The milestone means he can now fly an aircraft by himself and with passengers within a 25-nautical-mile radius of Horsham. He will now work on chalking up 10 hours of flying required to secure a cross-country licence endorsement. This would allow him to fly anywhere in Australia. The Horsham Flying Club member said he had flown with his father Doug since he was a toddler and first had a feel of aircraft controls when he was about seven. great on the farm

Doug, also a pilot, said flying had always been part of Roland’s life. “His first flight was when he was 18 months old,” he said. Roland said he hoped to pursue a career that involved him being at the controls of an aircraft. “I love it. My dream job would be in the air ambulance. I would have to do a lot of work to get there, but I want to try to do that. That’s what I want to do,” he said. Having yet to learn how to drive a car, Roland has had to travel out with others or cycle his way out to Horsham aerodrome to pursue his flying passion. He has gained his qualifications under the direction of Horsham Flying Club chief flying instructor Peter Weissenfeld.

Changes to border next month

ost people double-vaccinated against COVID-19 will be able to travel from Victoria into South Australia without quarantining from November 23.

South Australian Premier Steven Marshall yesterday announced plans to ease border restrictions as part of his government’s COVID-Ready Roadmap. Travellers will avoid quarantine if they come from COVID-transmission-free municipalities. A double-vaccination rate of above 80 percent for the population aged 16 and older in that municipality will also be a requirement. Changes to South Australian restrictions on Monday had already meant people living in a 70-kilometre corridor ‘bubble’ either side of the border could cross without testing for COVID-19. South Australia will also use the November 23 date to halve its quarantine period for international travellers from 14 days to seven. All South Australian border restrictions involving Victoria, apart from

people in the corridor bubble, remain in place. This includes a ban on people who have been in Victoria outside the bubble for the past 14 days from entering the state. Mr Marshall pre-empted his announcement during a visit to Mt Gambier at the weekend when he told reporters the border would open to people with double vaccinations by Christmas. News of South Australian government plans to ease border conditions follow sweeping changes the Victorian government announced in response to predictions the state would reach an 80 percent of population double-vaccination milestone for people 16 and older on Friday. From 6pm on Friday, regional Victoria and metropolitan Melbourne will move forward on the same restrictions, enabling people from Melbourne to travel to regional Victoria. Most indoor settings, including restaurants, hotels, gymnasiums and hairdressers will open with no caps subject to social distancing of one person per four square metres, DQ4,

and if all staff and patrons are fully vaccinated. Most outdoor settings will remain with one-person-per-two-squaremetre, DQ2, limits for up to 500 people, where staff and patrons are fully vaccinated. These indoor and outdoor settings will also apply to weddings, funerals and religious gatherings if all attendees are fully vaccinated. Caps of 30 people will apply for weddings, funerals and religious gatherings if vaccination status is unknown. Entertainment venues will reopen to fully vaccinated patrons. For indoor seated venues including cinemas and theatres, there will be a 75 percent capacity or DQ4 up to 1000 people and for non-seated indoor entertainment venues there will be a DQ4 limit with no patron cap. Outdoor seated and non-seated entertainment venues including stadiums, zoos and tourism attractions will be open with a DQ2 limit up to 5000 where staff and patrons are fully vaccinated. Events – such as music festivals –

Close cup finish predicted A mock competition putting western Victorian towns against each other in a race for COVID-19 vaccination levels is set to go to the wire. Authorities were still tallying figures for the COVID Cup when The Weekly Advertiser went to press last night, but confirmed the dash to the line would be close – perhaps even resulting in a photo-finish. Towns across the region had slipped into the 90 percent double-vaccinated range for people aged 16 and older and suspicions were some might be close to the 100 percent or fully vaccinated mark. Last week Kaniva had edged past Harrow in what organisers had called ‘the race that starts the nation’, but other towns had been hot on their heels. ‘Chief stipendiary steward’ Dr Rob Grenfell from Grampians Public Health Unit and initially involved in Australia’s role in global vaccinedevelopment efforts, was anxiously awaiting updated figures. He said regardless of the tallies, he already knew that the Wimmera-Mallee response to vaccination had been outstanding. “We’re doing exceptionally well as a region in getting vaccinated, which is very important as restrictions are further relaxed on Friday,” he said. “As Melburnians start moving across the state there will be more virus outbreaks, but everyone can rest assured that getting vaccinated is the best protection we can have for ourselves and our communities. “It is still, however, important to maintain all

Cup

will be able to host up to 5000 attendees, subject to any restrictions related to the venue. Masks will remain mandatory indoors but are no longer required outdoors. The government has ‘highly’ recommended people continue to wear a mask outdoors where they cannot physically distance, such as at an outdoor market. The next milestone will be when Victoria hits the 90 percent double-dose vaccination target for Victorians 12 years and older. Authorities are predicting this to be as early as November 24. Wimmera sporting leaders, meanwhile, are waiting for a complete list of directives based on the expected easing of restrictions. Wimmera Regional Sports Assembly executive officer David Berry said indoor as well as outdoor competition would be able to resume. But he said there was still a need for clarification regarding vaccination requirements for everyone involved.

FIVE-DAY forecast

Ararat backs Shocktober Ararat district residents can register their Automatic External Defibrillators, AEDs, and sign up as a ‘GoodSAM’ Responder this ‘Shocktober’. Ambulance Victoria’s Shocktober campaign is aimed at improving cardiac-arrest survival rates. The service is urging people to sign up to GoodSAM, a life-saving app that connects people in cardiac arrest with a nearby volunteer who is willing to start hands-on CPR while an ambulance is on the way. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the council encouraged organisations to register their AED through the Ambulance Victoria website. “If you are a business, school or community organisation and have an AED, consider placing it in a visible location outside so it can be easily accessible,” he said. “The council has several publicly accessible units, including at the Ararat Town Hall, libraries and the fitness centre.” He said people could register at registermyaed.ambulance.vic.gov.au.

Haven properties unite for hospice W

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

ayne and Alison Adams are among green thumbs preparing to showcase their properties for a ‘Gardens of Haven’ event on Sunday.

The event, a fundraiser for Wimmera Hospice Care Auxiliary, will include seven unique gardens, open between 1pm and 5pm. Mr Adams described the couple’s 20-yearold garden as ‘low maintenance, open and child friendly’. “There are native shrubs around the boundary, mixed with deciduous trees throughout the garden, giving protection from summer heat,” he said. “We have many raised garden beds with various planting themes.” Mr Adams said the garden was set on an acre, with a large lawn area at the rear of the house. “The garden has given us years of pleasure, from creation to establishment and now to regeneration,” he said. “From the drought to the fire earlier on and during the past two years of COVID lockdowns, we have always been grateful to live here in Haven.” Wimmera Hospice Care Auxiliary events co-ordinator Lea Crammond said members were eagerly anticipating the weekend’s event, following a tough couple of years for fundraising activities. “All the money raised will go towards buying equipment and leasing it for palliative care patients to use,” she said. Cost of entry, which includes afternoon tea at Haven Hall, is $15. There will also be a plant stall and raffle at the hall. Horsham’s Peter Broadbear has been working hard for the cause, creating a range of wooden items to sell on the day. “Can you imagine how delighted I was

when he told me all of these items were for the auxiliary to sell on the plant stall?” Mrs Crammond said. “I thanked him and he quietly said, ‘Well, it’s such a good cause, isn’t it?’. “It is for a good cause and it’s also going to be a lot of fun. All the gardens are a substantial size and there is parking available at the sites. “All the gardeners have been working tirelessly to support the auxiliary and some are creating garden art for sale and potting up extra plants for sale.” Mrs Crammond said the event would be run under COVID-safe guidelines. “Bring your face mask and be prepared to QR code or sign in,” she said. “You will only be required to sign in once for the entire event.” People can buy tickets at Haven Hall on Sunday or by calling Nola Bellinger on 0407 810 544.

Live music at the Gap

alls Gap Hotel will be part of an event celebrating the return of live outdoor music this weekend.

The hotel is one of eight outdoor regional venues involved in a State Government Play On Victoria concert promotion. Acts listed to play at Halls Gap Hotel on Sunday include The Kite Machine, This Way North, Steve Cousins, Maddy May and Asha Bright. The concert series, for audiences double-vaccinated against COVID19, includes more than 20 regional artists. Other outdoor venues are at Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Warrnambool, Castlemaine, Archies Creek and Avenel. The regional announcement follows the unveiling of a line-up for the Play On Victoria concert at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl in Melbourne on Saturday. Similar to the Melbourne event, the regional shows will trial the return of live music in a COVID-safe way. The Play On events are designed to support Victorian artists unable to perform during the pandemic, help regional music venues that have also been affected and provide a boost to eight regional cities and towns. Organisers have stressed that fans attending the concert must show they are fully vaccinated with a COVID-19 digital certificate dis-

played through a Service Victoria app. Victorians can add their COVID-19 digital certificate to the Service Victoria app through MyGov or the Express Medicare Plus app. Patrons can also show proof of vaccination through the Medicare app or equivalent smartphone wallet. They can also present a printed version of their certificate or immunisation history statement or provide evidence of a valid exemption. People seeking more information on ticketing and line-ups can visit vmdo.com.au/playonvic. Victorian Creative Industries Minister Danny Pearson said the outdoor concerts represented an important step in bringing live music back to Victoria. He said it would also play a role in getting the entertainment industry ‘back on its feet’. “We’re making sure we have the best technology in place to get our great local events up and going again and make them run as smoothly as possible,” he said. Regional Development Minister Mary-Anne Thomas added the all-regional line-up was a celebration of talent across the state. These incredible artists will light up outdoor stages at some of our favourite regional venues and give us a taste of exciting times ahead,” she said. “I encourage music fans across Victoria to get involved and support the safe return of live music.”

TEA ANYONE? With news of plans to reduce the requirements for people to get truck-driving licences in the United Kingdom, passionate Horsham driver Kevin Roberts was keen to show what skills came with years in the industry. With a short stick from the side of a truck holding a teabag, Mr Roberts navigated the huge transport, millimetre by millimetre, into position to drop the bag into a cup. “Like anything, it takes practice. I’d rather back a B-Double than a 6x4 trailer any day,” he said. To see a video of the demonstration, visit website theweeklyadvertiser.com.au. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

30th anniversary garden walk Wimmera outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy a selection of Nhill gardens on Sunday while raising money for children in need. Nhill branch of Save the Children will celebrate the 30th anniversary of an annual garden walk this year. Branch president Cathrine Kennedy encouraged people to make the most of the COVID-safe event. “We will have one country garden along with two on the edge of town to walk in,” she said. “We will also have a few front gardens that will be on display. They are to be viewed from the footpath, with no entry to the gardens themselves.”

Tickets cost $10 and are available at ‘Langtry’, 48 Mackay Street, Nhill, on the day. The event runs from 10am to 4.30pm and ticket entry includes a list of participating gardens. “Because of COVID we’re not having afternoon tea, but we’re encouraging everyone to buy a coffee from the local coffee shop instead,” Mrs Kennedy said. She said this could be the final year of the garden walk, with the Nhill Save the Children group likely to disband. Save the Children works throughout the world to protect children from abuse and neglect, provide access to

health care and education and to help children in times of need. The organisation also stands up for children’s rights, ‘because we want all children to be educated, healthy and live a life free from violence’. Money raised from the Nhill group’s activities is sent to Save the Children’s Melbourne headquarters. “We’ve been sending money there since 1968,” Mrs Kennedy said. People can visit www.savethe children.org.au for more information about the organisation and its work. – Sarah Matthews

Celebrating 35 years

From humble start to industry leader T

he name ‘Skillinvest’ has become part of the statewide vocabulary when it comes to the employment and training industry.

But the name maintains a strong Wimmera feel and represents a profound example of the region’s potential growth and prosperity. In reaching a 35-year anniversary on the back of expansive growth and development, especially in the past five years, the organisation has its sights firmly set on a bright and prosperous future. Skillinvest, which started out as Wimmera and Grampians Group Training Company in 1986 with one employee John Ackland, has come a considerable way since its humble origins, when navigating a fledgling industry that matched training with employment needs occurred from the back of a ute. October represents the month when it all started for Skillinvest and now with more than 160 staff, 350 apprentices and trainees and up to 100 labour-hire employees and almost 2000 students in training, the organisation has certainly grown. The not-for-profit organisation has experienced a 60 percent increase in staff numbers during the past five years, and now has offices in Adelaide, Bairnsdale, Ballarat, Dandenong, Donald, Horsham, Longerenong College, Pakenham and Wangaratta. In celebrating 35 years, Skillinvest chief executive Darren Webster reflected on what the organisation meant, not only to trainees, employees and clients, but also people in general.

“As a not-for-profit, values-based organisation everything we do is about giving back to our communities so that they can prosper and grow,” he said. “We have developed strong business, government and community partnerships and assisted thousands of young people to find and retain meaningful employment. Many of our apprentices have gone on to own their own businesses and invest in their own apprentices. That is very satisfying. “We are passionate and involved in the community. We sponsor community sport, with a particular focus on youth and women’s sport, and various community projects.” Skillinvest is a long-time major sponsor of both Wimmera and Horsham District football and netball leagues, as well as the Stawell Gift and Blue Ribbon Foundation. Skillinvest representatives also sit on the headspace Horsham consortium and Wimmera Development Association board, ensuring they are across the challenges that face the region’s young people and community. “Our growth in the area of reconciliation and working with government to secure training and employment opportunities for our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities is something we take pride in and we have seen some really positive outcomes in this space,” Mr Webster said. “Thirty-five years is a long time for any business, but especially for a not-for-profit in our industry – the fact that we are still thriving and growing is exciting.” Mr Webster said there had been many changes to the business throughout the years, but a few things had remained constant.

1986 Skillinvest began as Wimmera & Grampians Group Training Company with John Ackland as the only employee who went on to be chief executive for 30 years, retiring in 2016. There were 25 apprentices in the first 12 months.

Skillinvest success story

ach Holmes, integration manager with farm-machinery dealership O’Connors, represents a glowing example of how well a Skillinvest apprenticeship program can generate success for individuals, business and industries.

Mr Holmes started an apprenticeship with Skillinvest, aka WORKCO, with O’Connors in 2005. Mr Holmes said having the strong support and a positive experience provided by Skillinvest were critical in his overall outcome. “Having a great relationship with my Skillinvest ‘support’ person in Shane Cross was very reassuring in knowing you had a third set of eyes watching on – ensuring your development was progressing at a satisfactory level not only at work but trade school as well,” he said. Mr Holmes said after he had finished his apprenticeship and became qualified, he continued employment with O’Connors Horsham. After a short stint he applied for was successful in getting service-manager role at O’Connors Birchip. “I spent six years as service manager in Birchip before moving in a group technical role for 12 months and then as branch manager at Birchip for a further two and a half years,” he said. “I then moved back to Horsham, where the journey began, as branch manager and was in the position for two years. “I then had a sales-manager position for a little over 12 months before moving into my

HISTORY

2000 Wimmera & Grampians Group Training changed its name to WORKCO to reflect expansion into other areas and the broad range of services it provided. 2002 W ORKCO board of management assumed responsibility of Link Employment + Training based in South Eastern suburbs of Melbourne, but the two organisations continued to run as separate businesses.

2006 Link Employment + Training expanded into eastern Victoria.

current role as integration manager for our newly acquired O’Connors dealerships in Ballarat and St Arnaud. “I’ve been very lucky to have opportunity of career development and O’Connors have been very supportive of supporting a career pathway for me.” Mr Holmes said his role at O’Connors involved taking responsibility for and overseeing the ‘onboarding’ and transitioning of the Ballarat and St Arnaud dealerships to an O’Connors way of business – instilling the firm’s core values. “This included managing staff retention, recruitment, training, policy and procedure implementation, customer engagement and most importantly delivering an exceptional customer experience and support package,” he said.

ORKCO took over administration and W operation of Longerenong College from the University of Melbourne.

2015 W ORKCO and Link Employment + Training merged to create one company, Skillinvest. Skillinvest is awarded a significant contract by Jobs Victoria to deliver employment and training opportunities for Indigenous communities across the state. Part of this contract, the Vic Pol program, involved a partnership with Jobs Victoria and Victoria Police to have young Indigenous secondary school students undertake a school-based traineeship in police stations across Victoria. The multi-award-winning program achieves excellent results and outcomes.

Mr Holmes agreed that the skills he gained through his experiences as an apprentice helped in his career progression. “When considering my current role, the early experience was very important. This particularly applied in developing an understanding of exceptional onboarding experiences, offering great support and training and ensuring good relationships are formed to be able give assistance and guidance when needed,” he said. Mr Holmes said O’Connors, in continuing to use Skillinvest services, was testament to a strong and productive partnership.

2021 Skillinvest is awarded three employment contracts by Jobs Victoria under its Jobs Victoria Employment Services funding to deliver employment services to a much larger footprint across regional Victoria and the South Eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

“Knowing you have someone in your corner watching and helping you develop in the early stages of your career through thick and thin is invaluable,” he said.

Longerenong: Then and now

istoric Longerenong College at Dooen north of Horsham has a long and proud history of providing hands-on agricultural training. It has established itself as a leading tertiary institution in its field in Australia. But it has been a tough road for the iconic establishment, which despite its foundations being part of the core of Wimmera agricultural growth and development, experienced a period of uncertainty. Its value as a training facility was far from lost on the leaders at Skillinvest and in a typical proactive approach, the business made the bold move to take over operations from Melbourne University on January 1, 2006. The move breathed new life and direction into the establishment and the college was soon back on an upward trend. It took considerable faith and effort to change the environment. At the time of the

change, student enrolments were the lowest they had been for years and many in the Wimmera and beyond went as far as thinking the college had actually closed. The growth and development of the college during a period when many similar organisations were shutting their doors, is a significant achievement. Student interest and numbers from across the country have increased steadily during the past 10 years and today accommodation at the college sits at 100 percent capacity for the first time this century. Such was the change that in 2020, student enrolment numbers exceeded 2006, 2007 and 2008 numbers – the first three years of Skillinvest operation – combined. Now, the college for the first time in more than 30 years, is at full capacity. Today there are 116 full-time students, 40 online agronomy students and 61 apprentices, which is also a record high for

GROWTH ● S killinvest’s workforce has increased almost 60% in the past five years, from 105 employees in 2016 to 164 employees today.

the college. What is even more exciting is that 2022 numbers are looking to be bigger again. But it doesn’t stop there. In 2020, workers completed a Longerenong College DATA Farm project, providing students and the agricultural industry with access to cuttingedge equipment, technology and knowhow – now embedded into college curriculum.

● O ngoing expansion means Skillinvest now has offices in Adelaide, Bairnsdale, Ballarat, Dandenong, Donald, Horsham, Longerenong, Wangaratta and Pakenham. ● S killinvest has placed more than 5000 apprentices and trainees and 1300 labour-hire employees with employers.

With college development gathering pace and tapping into burgeoning recognition of the worldwide importance of agriculture, the institution is also experiencing on-site growth.

● S killinvest attracts more than 1000 students annually for training in Agriculture, Building & Construction, Automotive, Engineering, Civil, Business, Equine (Racing) and Hairdressing.

Currently, almost $9-million in capital investment is going towards two major infrastructure projects at the college – a new $6.5-million project funded by Agriculture Victoria and a $2.315-million classroom refurbishment project, funded by the Department of Education and Training, $2-million, and Skillinvest, $315,000.

Thank you. To our community, our partners, our staff and every apprentice, trainee, labour hire worker, student and host business we have worked with over the last 35 years. We are incredibly grateful for your support.

● S killinvest is the largest provider of Equine (Racing) training in Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania. ●V ET training is provided to about 200 secondary school students – 65% through Longerenong College.

Drone-bombing trial success

Ararat pool in action

immera parkland has provided the setting for a successful airborne trial of managing planned ecological burns that saves time and reduces risk to firefighters.

Forest Fire Management Victoria crews have used a remote-control drone aircraft to drop aerial incendiaries to establish a burn in a targeted area of Grampians National Park. The crews have worked with a licensed drone operator on a project designed to increase burn accuracy and save crews time from navigating difficult terrain by foot. Authorities identified a 3000-hectare ecological burn site near Halls Gap as ideal for the drone trial due to thick vegetation, intersecting drainage lines and creek system – which all make it difficult for crews to access. Every year since 2017, FFMVic crews have carried out the burn, which aims to create a patchy mosaic of burnt and unburnt land to break up the vegetation, encourage regeneration and provide habitat for threatened species such as the heath mouse and southern brown bandicoot. It also promotes the growth of threatened native grasses and orchids and helps to control weeds in the area. This trial is part of a $517-million State Government 2021-22 Budget investment to fund FFMVic workers and ensure access to modern technology, fire towers and equipment. FFMVic works closely with the Bureau of Meteorology to assess weather conditions, such as humidity, temperature and wind speed – and only carries out burns when conditions are suitable.

ON A MISSION: Forest Fire Management Victoria crew members launch an incendiary-loaded drone as part of a planned-burn trial. Victorian Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister Lily D’Ambrosio said by improving practices and trialling new technology, the government could establish effective planned-burn programs to protect communities and the environment from bushfires. “Climate change and more extreme weather events are changing the na-

ture of bushfires, so it’s important we take action now to minimise risk to human life and our native wildlife,” she said. Upper House Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford added: “It’s great to see our local crews exploring innovative ways to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of planned burning. This work will help to protect

our treasured natural environment and improve bushfire safety.” People can find out the latest information about planned burns online at ffm.vic.gov.au/plannedburn, download a VicEmergency app or call the VicEmergency hotline on 1800 226 226.

Swimmers have morning opportunities to resume their exercise regimes with the reopening of Ararat Outdoor Olympic Swimming Pool. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said Ararat Fitness and Leisure Centre was welcoming back the community to the pool, under limited operating hours from 6am to 9am daily. He said fitness centre staff had been preparing for the opening, carrying out appropriate safety checks to safeguard the health and wellbeing of the wider community as authorities started to reopen facilities. “Though it may be chilly for some, I’m sure there are some dedicated lap swimmers who are keen to get back in the water,” he said. Dr Harrison said the centre had been inundated with inquiries from members about the opening of outdoor pools and restart of swimming lessons and aqua aerobics. “As the weather warms up, we’ll look forward to safely extending the Ararat outdoor pool’s hours and reopening our two other outdoor pools in Lake Bolac and Willaura,” he said. “The centre will be opening up the water park and slide gradually, hopefully from December in line with public health advice from the State Government. “Similarly, our swimming program and aqua-aerobic classes will start as soon as possible.” Ararat outdoor pool is open to people fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Reservations are not required. Change rooms will be closed but accessible toilets and outdoor showers will be available.

Drive-in opera at silos sold-out

Rotary Drive-In Opera at Sheep Hills silos on Saturday is all but a sell-out with organisers of the unique event overwhelmed with a public response. Ticket sales opened on Tuesday last week and by the end of the day about 80 percent had gone to enthusiastic patrons. By the Thursday night, all 101 available tickets were gone, forcing the development of a waiting list. Organisers are also reassessing patron circumstances with further easing of COVID-19 restrictions. Rotary Club of Warracknabeal secretary Wendy Hewitt said the public response to the event, which featured ‘Belle of Boolite’ Sophia Laursen Habel, showed how keen people were to get out and about. “It also shows their acceptance to restrictions placed around such events,” she said. “With restrictions further relaxed on the weekend, people will now be able to bring friends in their car. “In addition, from 6pm this Friday, all Victorians will now be able to travel across the state. “This opens opportunities for family and friends from metropolitan areas to come and enjoy this unique entertainment experience.”

“With restrictions further relaxed on the weekend, people will now be able to bring friends in their car”

– Wendy Hewitt

Mrs Hewitt said while the new freedoms were welcome, everyone involved needed to be ‘very’ mindful of protective measures in place and that the virus was still in the Victorian community. “Patrons will still be required to wear masks, stay in their car unless accessing food, drinks and toilets, and to social distance when out of the car,” she said. “Above all, we will have a fantastic night and we thank so many local people for their great support. “The last planning meeting with performers was at the weekend and all is set for an amazing and unique experience at our Sheep Hills silos. We’re very excited. “People who have already booked tickets will receive an email this week informing them of the latest changes.” Mrs Hewitt said anyone wanting to go on a waiting list for a ticket could call her on 0427 332 193.

Council dumps waste service N

orthern Grampians Shire Council has scrapped a free greenwaste-disposal service for households this spring.

It made the decision after an initial 2020 trial proved it uneconomical and failed to attract sufficient community interest. A trial from October 12 to 25 occurred last year after the council voted to investigate the feasibility of the model. The council had hoped to engage 25 percent of eligible households in the trial, but actual participation was much lower with only 5.4 percent of rateable properties taking up the offer. The trial also revealed the cost of processing green waste was close to 50 percent more than anticipated, at $45.65 per cubic metre. The higher processing cost was compounded by: Receival of non-compliant green waste with a diameter greater than 10mm and inclusion of non-processable general waste in green waste drop-offs impeding processing; and transport cost of green waste from other areas in the shire to St Arnaud – the sole shire-based green waste facility. From the trial sample of participants, the council assessed that had 25 percent of households participated, the cost of the trial would have been upwards of $114,000. Council chief executive Liana Thompson said the trial was a necessary but ‘regrettably’ expensive exercise. “We know from surveying the community that the concept of green-waste disposal is very much wanted, and it forms

“We have crunched the numbers from this trial and it is very clear that we do not currently have the infrastructure required to process this type and quantity of waste efficiently to sustain this activity” – Liana Thompson

part of our waste management strategy and action plan to tackle this,” she said. “But we have crunched the numbers from this trial and it is very clear that we do not currently have the infrastructure required to process this type and quantity of waste efficiently to sustain this activity.” Mayor Murray Emerson added: “To implement a disposal program like this is going to come at a cost that we do not think is fair for our ratepayers to bear coming out of the pandemic. “There is hope on the horizon though. We were fortunate earlier this year to be a grant recipient of the State Government’s Recycling Victoria Council’s Fund. The $80,000 of funding we received has helped us launch a research project with seven other councils to examine the flow of organic material in our region and whether a shared organics processing facility is a viable solution for keeping green waste out of our landfill. We will be able to provide further information on this exciting council collaboration to everyone when the consultancy undertaking the study for us has finalised their report.”

Young leaders to represent youth Sixteen young people from Horsham Rural City have an opportunity to make a difference after joining the municipality’s second youth council. Horsham mayor Robyn Gulline said despite interruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, youth council members had been able to meet in person to start planning programs and events for young people in the region. She said the youth council offered members a great opportunity to gain leadership skills.

“Being part of the HRCC Youth Council is an opportunity for these young people to have a voice in our community and is an invaluable learning experience,” she said. “As with the first youth council, this group will help guide decisions for precincts and infrastructure that affect them, and their peers, now and into the future.” Horsham Youth Council comprises people aged 12 to 25 who are living within the municipality. The council’s next meeting will

involve the group determining a program of delivery for the next two years. The new youth councillors are: Clear Pohlner, Stella Schmidt, Swathi Sunilkumar, Bart Maxwell, Mia Frawley, Kori Both, Jarhyn McGrath, Liam Carracher, Malachy O’Brien, Hanna Poswiat, Armani Scollary, Thomas Hobbs, Venetia Kardogeros, Shivansh Bhutani, Tom Luke and Scarlett Munday-Terry.

Full steam ahead for Ararat reserve A

rarat Rural City Council has revealed detailed architectural designs for a Gordon Street Recreation Reserve redevelopment during a meeting with the reserve’s sporting and user groups.

Council chief executive Tim Harrison said he was ‘extremely’ proud to be able to present the detailed design plans to the community. “The Gordon Street Recreation Reserve redevelopment will deliver a new premium sporting facility for Ararat with a very deliberate focus on increasing access and inclusion for women and juniors,” he said. “After identifying there was a gap in the provision of playing surfaces for soccer and little athletics, we wanted to transform Gordon Street into a multi-use sporting precinct that also enhanced opportunities for AFLW and junior cricket. “After working really hard with the local clubs and users and receiving strong support and endorsement from the state sporting associations, I’m proud that we’ve reached such an important milestone that we’re able to reveal the full design plans for the redevelopment.” The council has published tender specifications for the project, which includes construction of the new multipurpose pavilion and sportsprecinct lighting.

Kindergartens across the region are beneficiaries of the latest round of a State Government School Readiness Funding program. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford announced Horsham, Ararat, Northern Grampians, Hindmarsh, Yarriambiack, West Wimmera and Buloke municipal councils were among funding recipients. Horsham will receive $275,093 to support new programs and extra staffing across eight kindergartens. Northern Grampians will have $196,923 to share among four kindergartens, Ararat $90,048 for five, Hindmarsh $57,703 for four, Yarriambiack $8786 for three, West Wimmera $36,125 for three and Buloke $55,086 for five. Services receive funding allocations based on the level of need from children in programs, with support available to all three and four-year-old children in funded programs including sessional and long-day care.

Storm Female Football Club, Ararat and District Little Athletics, Chalambar and St Andrews cricket clubs, Grampians Cricket Association, Ararat Pony Club and Mount Cole Equestrian Association. “I’d encourage people interested in the project to jump on board our ‘Engage Ararat’ website and check out the designs,” Dr Harrison said. “Project architects, Davidson Architecture, have done such an incredible job maximising form, function and inclusion. “They have also produced some fantastic 3D artist renders that make it pretty easy to start getting excited about how this project will transform Gordon Street. “With the project scheduled for completion in the first half of 2023, it’s not really that far away until the community can come and enjoy our new world-class recreation reserve. “The council will be selecting contractors by Christmas and soon after, there will be shovels in the ground and a boom in construction jobs and activity.” The State Government has provided $2.55million and the Federal Government $400,000 for the project. The council is in charge of the redevelopment with endorsement and participation of AFL Victoria, Football Victoria, Cricket Victoria and Little Athletics Victoria.

Council outlines directives in place N

orthern Grampians Shire Council has confirmed that only patrons with poof of double vaccination against COVID-19 can use a specified list of council premises.

The council announced a directions plan involving its facilities in response to the State Government’s Roadmap to Deliver the National Plan. Council services requiring proof of double vaccination before entering a facility include – Leisure services: Stawell Sports and Aquatic Centre and St Arnaud Pool. Early years services: St Arnaud Early Learning Centre, maternal and child health centres. Council facilities: Senior citizens clubs in Stawell and St Arnaud and council chambers. Library services: Stawell and St Arnaud. Council staff members have placed, or will place, signs at the entry of any premises or event where proof of vaccination will be required. The council has advised that its St Arnaud Town Hall and Stawell Town Hall service centres will not request proof of vaccination from people before serving them. But there will be no facility for unvaccinated people to meet with staff or be provided with a council service from any other council officer beyond the initial point of customer-service inquiry. The council has provided an example such as a request to meet with an officer to discuss a building or planning permit. Council meetings or any council-run meeting scheduled with the public will be off limits to any person who does not hold proof of double vaccination.

The council will accept two types of proof of double vaccination as valid: The first is a paper copy of the Federal Government Services Australia Medicare immunisation history statement with the COVID-19 immunisation status ticked. The second is digital proof of vaccination via the Service Victoria check-in app or MyGov app. At this stage of the roadmap, the proof-of-vaccination request will apply to any person who is 16 and older. The council has also declared it will have a zero-tolerance policy to people who fail to accept the rules. It has stressed that it will refer any attempt by a person to disrupt the plan’s implementation or to verbally abuse or be aggressive to council staff to police. Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson endorsed the council direction. “Throughout the State of Emergency, the council has been responding to state and federal government directives with regards to coronavirus,” he said. “This is just another step towards our society returning to normal and we expect very few residents will be affected and that the majority of our community will be wholly supportive of our request to only admit double-dose vaccinated people into our facilities. “Our primary aim is to keep our community safe while we navigate through this public health emergency. “At this point in the government roadmap, we are focusing on the service sectors and council activities where we feel the greatest need to manage proof of vaccination.”

Get vaccinated, it's as simple as that. You don't want to go through what I went through and what I continue to go through

COLOURFUL GIFTS: Janice and John Williams and some of the flowers they are giving to people.

Couple delivers colour, goodwill Stawell district residents John and Janice Williams have found ways to bring light and hope to people amid a time of limits and lockdowns, rules and restrictions. The couple has spent the past six months brightening the lives of many by providing flowers to people or groups who might have need for or appreciate the gifts. They have cut 7000 blooms and among groups to benefit from the generosity is Stawell

Uniting Church, whose members have shared the flowers to further spread the beauty and joy. Stawell Uniting Church’s Rev Susan Pearse said many people appreciated the Williams’ thoughtfulness and care. “Mr and Mrs Williams, along with their helpers, are also well known for their kindness in delivering wood for warmth to those in need or unable to source it,” she said.

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

Rainbow project reaches new level T

he Hindmarsh community of Rainbow is a step closer to benefitting from an ‘innovative tourism project’ following the signing of a long-term lease agreement and appointment of a project manager.

Hindmarsh Shire mayor Ron Ismay said the new tourist attraction, ‘unlike anything that has been seen before’, would involve transforming a 34-metre-high concrete grain silo into a ‘captivating, large-scale internal and external art installation’. “In recent years, silo art has captured the imagination of travellers, with the Silo Art Trail across the Wimmera-Mallee and to the northeast of Rainbow earning international recognition,” he said. “What will set this project apart from existing silo art is the additional activation of the internal areas of the silo for a large-scale mural.” Cr Ismay said this would enable visitors to view the inside of the silo and provide an opportunity for a unique art engagement, to be created on the internal silo bin walls. “Topping this experience, literally, will be a viewing tower atop the silo, giving visitors the chance to enjoy expansive views of the Wimmera-Mallee plains and Big Desert,” he said. The council has been working on a concept development for the project – including access to the attraction – in partnership with the State Government and silo owner Llew Schilling.

Cr Ismay said this had been formalised, thanks to the signing of a long-term lease. Simon Landrigan has been appointed project manager and will oversee the development alongside a project control group, which includes representatives from Department of Jobs, Precincts and Regions, Visit Victoria, council and the community. Cr Ismay said Mr Landrigan, already a member of the Hindmarsh Shire team, had broad experience delivering a wide range of infrastructure projects throughout the muncipaility. He will be responsible for recruiting engineering specialists, designers and building contractors. Cr Ismay, a Rainbow resident, said he was excited the project was starting to gather momentum. “This is such an exciting project, not just for Rainbow but for the whole region and small rural communities generally,” he said. “I remember climbing to the top of the silo as a youngster and can confirm the views from there are fantastic. “In combination with the unique art installations it will be a great attraction and we look forward to welcoming people from far and wide to our town to enjoy the experience.” People can call Mr Landrigan on 5391 4444 or email slandrigan@hindmarsh.vic.gov.au for more information about the project.

Wry Neck

Have you ever woken up with an extremely painful neck where you can’t turn your head to one side or maybe both? You can hardly lift your head off the pillow it’s so painful and trying to turn your neck causes excruciating pain. Or maybe for you, you were in the shower and you may have just flicked your head and suddenly you can’t move it at all. How did this happen? What caused the problem and how can you fix it? This is a classic “Wry Neck” or correctly speaking a “Torticollis”. What happens is that there is a sudden movement of the vertebrae (bones) in the neck. Now it’s not a violent movement like what may result from a car accident, it’s almost like an unconscious movement, like the brain and the body in a relaxed motion moved awkwardly, caught itself out and jammed up. Suddenly the muscles spasm and you can’t move at all. Often, I see it with a sudden change in the weather overnight. I often say that 50% of people wake up with it and for the other 50% it occurs in the shower. So how can you avoid this situation? A good option is to not sleep in drafts, try and avoid awkward neck positions in sleep (that can be hard to do- however falling into a heavy sleep on your stomach can aggravate things). In the shower again not flicking your head whilst the warm water is relaxing the muscles. Unfortunately given your best efforts it may still happen. How can you fix it? Option 1 : Reach for the latest anti-inflammatory and take those until they feel better and the neck pain settles. Now the pain has gone and their neck is moving seemingly well again, no further issues right? Wrong!! The joints are still fixated and locked to some extent and the body, ever adapting and inventive has created a way to get around the issue for the short term. Long term it can create a chronic problem and can encourage arthritis. Option 2: A chiropractic adjustment has the advantage of allowing the vertebrae to move more easily, reduce the neck spasm in the short-term and assisting in creating better spinal health in the long-term. A “Win-Win” situation for you. I look forward to helping you have great spinal health.

Wimmera wool-industry milestone 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

ool has played an integral role in the agricultural history of western Victoria and the people involved in the industry remain part of the fabric of regional society.

Wool classers are responsible for quality assurance of the Australian woolclip and are part of the story of Australian wool. This year represents a 50-year milestone for a Wimmera group of wool classers who have spent lifetimes working with wool and agriculture in general. Peter Sudholz of Horsham, Tim Sudholz, Natimuk, Peter McGennisken, Brimpaen, John Ferrier, Birchip and Chris Bibby, Navarre, have joined an elite group in reaching 50-year Australian Wool Exchange, AWEX, recognition. The AWEX manages a national wool-classer registration scheme, underpinned by the Industry Code of Practice for the Preparation of Australian Woolclips. People with Australian Wool-classer registrations, updated every three years, can class wool anywhere in Australia and AWEX formally recognises wool classers with 50 years of continuous registration. Peter and Tim Sudholz, distant relatives, started their wool-classer training in a group of about a dozen in a

ELITE GROUP: Tim Sudholz, left, and Peter Sudholz have clocked up 50 years as registered wool classers. Peter McGennisken, John Ferrier, and Chris Bibby have also joined the elite group in reaching the 50-year milestone. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER process that involved four years of part-time night classes. Peter Sudholz said during his five decades in wool and agriculture, which had also involved considerable wool-classer training, education and leadership roles, he had seen and experienced many changes in the industry. “When we started in the early 1970s there were more than 180-million sheep in Australia and nearly every farm in the Wimmera had sheep as

well as crops. Now there are about 68-million sheep,” he said. “A key driver of the reduction was the suspension of the reserve price scheme in 1991 that resulted in a market crash and an exodus of people out of wool. “Then of course there have also been droughts and other factors, but the Australian wool industry, along with sheep in general, is now very strong in the current climate. “There is always a lot of price vol-

atility in wool because it is a global commodity.” Mr Sudholz said the industry itself had evolved and this had included advances in sheep breeding and genetics, this being evident in merino sheep with their large frame, plainer body and heavier-cutting, finer-fleece wool. “There’s been improvements and advancements in shearing-shed, sheep-handling facilities, sheep-yard design and workplace safety environments. With improved returns to

growers from both sheep and wool there has been a noticeable investment back into infrastructure,” he said. “There is plenty to consider as the industry keeps evolving. Speaking as a wool classer, one of the variables now has been the introduction of shedding breeds, which can potentially raise the risk of contamination by medullated fibres and cause problem in the dyeing process of wool.” Mr Sudholz said he remained confident wool would continue to have a strong role in Australian agriculture and looked back fondly on his career. “It’s been 50 years of industry involvement, not only dealing with sheep and wool, but also providing leadership for and educating and training others in the industry,” he said. “It has also been a great experience working with and meeting so many different people across such a broad industry.” Tim Sudholz, who farms near Mt Arapiles and runs 1400 merinos despite having a greater cropping regime than in the past, agreed the wool industry had experienced considerable buoyancy and had undergone many changes. He said the rise in value of sheep meat had broadened the potential value of running flocks. “The wool is reasonably good at the moment, but the meat side is now so good,” he said.

BY DEAN LAWSON

estoration of a piece of historic Wimmera machinery is underway as one of the region’s largest private collections continues to unearth treasures of the past.

A diesel engine that powered the 3LK radio transmitter at Lubeck from 1936 is now in the hands of Dunmunkle Sumpoilers, who plan to return the machine to its operating condition. The district historical significance of the engine prompted Pipkorn clearing sale vendors to separate the item from a huge online auction planned for November 13 and 14. The auction, involving an expansive collection of farm machinery and vehicles, is the second involving items collected by former Banyena farmer Ken Pipkorn. Dunmunkle Sumpoilers is a community vintage-machinery restoration club. President Graham Gellatly of Lubeck said he was delighted the group had secured the 1934 Ruston Hornsby 9HRC diesel twin-cylinder horizontal engine. “It’s certainly part of local history and we didn’t want to lose the opportunity to keep it here,” he said. “We’ve moved the main parts of the motor back to Murtoa and are

now working on picking up its big fly wheel. “It’s missing some pieces, including a piston and inlet, exhaust valves and fuel and oil pumps. If anyone can help with these parts we’d love to hear from them. “We want to get it going again. It’s a great project for us and the region and what we enjoy doing.” The powerful engine, which developers in the 1930s had believed might help provide electricity for Lubeck households and streets as well as the radio-transmission role, fell short of expectations. But it needed only one of its cylinders in generating enough power for the transmission. While the engine has a broad historical significance in the region as part of the original 3LK radio station, the ancestor of 3WM, it also has strong ties with Mr Gellatly’s family.

“My wife Kathryn’s father, Eric Bellman, was one of the engine operators as one the 3LK technicians in 1959,” he said. “When 3WM took over running of 3LK, I sold them the land the transmitter’s on now – 24 acres – and it was about that time, in 1979, that the engine was replaced because they didn’t need it any more. “It was sold to Ken Pipkorn who has had it ever since. “We have about seven regular enthusiasts and we will be working on the engine. “Much will depend on parts we can secure to help with the restoration. “Our aim is to work on things that aren’t plastic and get them going again.” Elders Horsham, working with AuctionsPlus, is in charge of the online sale and branch manager Mat Taylor said the engine reflected the vast, eclectic range of items that would go under the hammer. “The auction will be spread across four sales with each item auctioned individually,” he said. “We’ve continued to be amazed. There are probably up to 40 items that are most likely one of a kind or extremely rare. For example there is an historic Jelbart tractor and a 1912 Fowler traction engine. “There are more than 300 tractors, the same again in stationary engines

and motors and well over 200 tractor wheels, and a collection of vintage cars, trucks and general farm machinery. There are close to a dozen steam engines. “It is an historic-collection goldmine and the clearing sale has attracted

global interest. We know of people who have been minimising their own collections to get enough finances to place strong bids for specific items. “In the first 24 hours of putting up details on Facebook, 25,000 people had viewed them.

“It’s been an absolute magnet.” Mr Taylor said everything listed for sale was only available in the exclusive online auction. “Items vary in condition and will be all sold as is,” he said. “Some could have been sitting

where they have laid for more than 50 years, but collectors will quickly spot potential.” People can only bid in the auction by registering interest with AuctionsPlus before the event via website auctions plus.com.au.

Biogas future for oats manufacturer “Like” Us On Facebook

95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

Bordertown food manufacturer with a major operation at Dimboola is set to convert oat husks into electricity to offset almost all of its monthly energy costs.

Cereal oat supplier Blue Lake Milling has completed construction of its $8.1-million Bordertown biogas plant, which will generate enough electricity to power both the plant and nearby homes. The company will use the 24,000plus tonnes of by-product oat husks it produces each year to create a mix of methane and carbon dioxide through ‘anaerobic digestion’. The gas will then fuel an onsite generator to power the mill. The company has previously sold the husks as stock feed, used it as packing material or thrown it away. The company’s commercial projects manager Jeremy Neale said two-thirds of the power generated would go to the mill, and the remaining third into the electricity grid. “It’ll go a fair way to eliminating our electricity bill,” he said. Mr Neale said there were no plans to pursue a similar concept at the firm’s manufacturing plant at Dimboola, which has an oat-rolling instead of de-husking function. But he said there would be overall flow-on benefits.

As a 24-hour, five-day-a-week operation, the Bordertown mill’s monthly electricity bill is about $80,000. Mr Neale said issues with power reliability first sparked the need for an alternate source more than a decade ago. “Every time we’ve looked at doing an expansion, power was a limiting factor,” he said. “So the way around that is to obviously generate your own.” Mr Neale said the biogas plant would allow manufacturing to continue in the event of a power outage. “Being at the end of the power line we have a lot of brownouts,” he said. “So being able to stay powered up and continue operations is a big factor for us – it mitigates against all those risks.” Blue Lake Milling has completed the project, which started with planning in 2017, with help from South Australian government study and implementation program grants.

lifts to electric models and is exploring further opportunities to reduce its waste impact. “We’ll be looking at ways to redirect our landfill to other methods of disposing of waste, so more recycling and anything we can do in that space,” Mr Neale said.

Potential

MOVING FORWARD: Biogass Renewables project manager Ross Merchant, left, and Blue Lake Milling commercial projects manager Jeremy Neale in front of a new $8.1-million biogas plant at Bordertown. Neale spent two weeks at a workshop in Germany. He said Blue Lake Milling’s ambitious plan attracted scepticism. “They all told us we were crazy,” Neale said. “There’s existing plants with oat husks being fed in but none with it as a straight diet. So it was obviously a bit of a risk.” Mr Neale said Blue Lake Milling

One of five

Energy firm Biogass Renewables designed and will operate and maintain the facility. The concept of generating gas from anaerobic digestion is common in Europe, but the Bordertown plant is just one of five in Australia. To gain a deeper understanding of how to operate a biogas plant, Mr

was also drawn to the idea of a biogas plant due to its value as a renewable and clean energy source. “As well as being a more safe and reliable method of generating power, improving our environmental footprint and sustainability are things the company is really delving into,” he said. The branch is in the process of transitioning from gas-powered fork-

CBH, the parent company of Blue Lake Milling, will also use the new project to gauge the potential of implementing similar systems at other grain operations throughout the country. However, Mr Neale said pioneering such a large-scale project had come with its share of complications. “The EPA approvals took more than a year in themselves,” he said. “There was just no legislative process in place for something like this.” Blue Lake Milling chief executive Kevin Boyle said while the new plant would lead to some business savings, improvements to sustainability were what got the project over the line. “The return on investment in financial terms actually remains very low,” he said. “For businesses like ours if it was only a financial decision we would likely not commit to it. “This is a representation of the values of our whole organisation, this is real leadership in industry and planning for a better future.”

What’s it worth?

oes the market know best? To be honest, there’s much about the new economy I don’t understand.

I don’t understand how a virtual currency can attract such frenzied investment and now be ‘valued’ at six times its price of about a year ago. I don’t understand how a buy-now-pay-later company, that loses in excess of $100-million a year, can have a market value of circa $30-billion – twice as much as the Coles Group and more than three times more valuable than Qantas. I guess it’s just a function of demand. If people want something badly enough, the price goes up. I wonder if the people investing in crypto or BNPL understand these markets better than I do? I hope so. Lately, there’s a bit about the old economy I’m having trouble understanding – the extraordinary escalation in the price of farmland. Earlier this month, a good sized parcel of land in east Wimmera changed hands for about $20,000 per hectare, or in the old language, $8000 per acre. That means it at least doubled in three years. On the face of it this is good news. With a couple of clicks of the calculator the net worth of average Wimmera farms has gone up several million dollars. But what else has changed? Has the productive value of that land suddenly improved? Has the price of grain commodities reached a new high that will remain forever? Is it true we will never see a drought again? I think the answer to these questions is no. So what’s driving this rapid increase in land

price? It’s easy to shrug and point to market fundamentals – good old supply and demand. And that’s true. A couple of good seasons, strong commodity prices and cheap debt are all fuelling the demand. But I can’t help wondering if the market is getting this right. I’ve always felt we have elements in farming for many where ‘size’ does matter. We want a big farm, big header, the biggest tractor. But is size the only game in town? Is this syndrome leading to decision-making based on emotion rather than logic? I don’t think there are clear answers to this, but we should at least ask ourselves these questions before heading to the next land auction. Perhaps this is a good time to consider investing in assets outside agriculture; create an alternate income source as a hedge against the tough times that will come. Perhaps we should consider moving along the value curve by investing in another enterprise within our farm business. Perhaps though, with farmland we’re happy to play the long game. When the music stops at least we’ll know where to find the farmland. Might be harder to find the crypto.

MARKET SWEET: Sunday’s Natimuk Farmers Market Plus remains on track with Wimmera people keen to seize opportunities as society takes tentative steps out from the COVID-19 pandemic. Marion and Steve Sostheim, pictured, will be selling their Grampians Honey at the market. Market organisers have stressed that strict COVID-19 rules will apply on the day. They said people needed to wear masks if unable to observe social distancing, all stall holders would have QR codes, all workers and volunteers needed to be vaccinated and all patrons had to be double-vaccinated.

Business distress call

very now and then, emerging loud and clear from the smog of political pontificating, you think, did they really say that? When did that ideological back flip happen?

Last week, the voice of business, the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry sent out a distress call with the prime target for its message being the Morrison government. It released its Better Australia for Our Future strategy. These sorts of visionary statements are usually puff pieces preaching to the converted and making an ambit claim for tax policy reform. Tax was but a minor mention compared with the plea for urgent action to drag Australia out of this pandemic. ACCI chief executive Andrew McKellar warned to, ‘not become waylaid in short-termism and political opportunism. Now more than ever we need more policy change that can persist longer than a single term of government’. Aha! I just heard you say, ‘here, here! Couldn’t have said it better myself’. So what else has this ACCI dude got to say? Speaking to Country Today, Mr KcKellar said the government needed to double the skilled

Country Today with Libby Price

migrant intake to 200,000 during the next five years. When I pointed out to him that agriculture needed migrant workers now, he lamented the inability of state and federal governments to come up with a unified plan to bring in migrant workers. The time for quarantining it would seem has passed. “We are not going to be able to provide an adequate number of quarantine places to address the shortage, that’s just not going to be possible,” he said. “If you’ve got fully vaccinated workers who are ready to come in, we need to know at what point we will be able to bring those workers in without having to go through the constraints of quarantine. Now that can be safely done. “It’s been safely done in other countries… If you look now in Western Europe there’s almost no quarantine arrangements.” If that wasn’t enough to make the government break out into a cold sweat, wait, there’s more. The strategy also called for,

‘multi-partisan consensus on clear goals to decarbonise the Australian economy, ending the ‘climate wars’ that have beset our public discourse over much of the past decade’. I know what you’re thinking. If the Coalition can publicly brawl over climate-change policy, surely multi-partisan is pie in the sky. So, I asked him if the rest of us could do it without governments, because most sectors of agriculture had pledged to do it already. “No… what we’re urging our political leaders to do is be courageous, set a longer-term narrative, let’s not just be driven by the shortterm electoral cycle,” he said. “We have some huge natural advantages and we have to take a long-term view.” If the science is correct, climate change is the most serious threat to our future. How ironic is it then, that climate-change policy seems to ring the death knell of so many of our political leaders? I won’t be around to live through what is predicted to happen. But my children and yet-to-be born grandchildren will inherit what we leave them. Here’s hoping we manage to achieve what so many farmers pledge, to leave the land better than they found it.

Money to cope with drought

egional Mallee communities will share in $114,790 in Federal Government funding to help them better prepare for drought. Mallee Sustainable Farming, Charlton Neighbourhood House and Birchip Cropping Group are among latest recipients of a Future Drought Fund Networks to Build Drought Resilience program. Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said the grants would support community projects. “The program focuses on local initiatives to enable agricultural communities to be better prepared for the impacts of drought,” he said. Member for Mallee Anne Webster said building drought resilience in Mallee would benefit the entire Australian agriculture sector. “The stronger individual communities are, the more robust our industry becomes as a result. The projects in Mallee will boost community connectedness and help local communities better prepare for drought,” she said. “Mallee Sustainable Farming Inc. will receive $44,290 for the project, which will create an online learning community to help farmers manage soil in drought. “Charlton Neighbourhood House has $21,000 to support its Buloke First People’s Art Trail project. “Birchip Cropping Group has received

$49,500 to fund its project ‘Filling the GAPP’, a project that will focus on growth, adoption, productivity and profit. BCG will host a series of networking activities across the region during 2022.” Birchip Cropping Group chief executive Fiona Best said providing opportunities for the farming community to establish professional networks to exchange ideas, challenges and solutions would be a key part of the BCG project. “Farm business resilience can be enhanced by having a strong support network of peers to engage with. This is particularly important during times of drought,” she said. The $3.75-million Networks to Build Drought Resilience program is part of a total Australian government investment of $19.2-million in leadership, mentoring, community capacity building and small-community infrastructure to help build drought resilience. Dr Webster encouraged organisations across her electorate to apply directly for a second grant round to the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal. She said applications were open until November 15 and people could find out more online at www.agriculture.gov.au/ ag-farm-food/drought/future-drought-fund/ networks-build-drought-resilience.

Ongoing support for ag shows Federal western Victorian parliamentarians have welcomed an extra $25-million to support agricultural field days and shows. Member for Mallee Anne Webster and Member for Wannon Dan Tehan spoke collectively about the benefits of the financial support, designed to ease cash-flow pressure for organisers. They said the latest funding, under Supporting Agricultural Shows and Field Days and Support Showmen and Women programs, followed a $34.5-million round-one shows allocation.

Eastern States Distributors:

Dr Webster said industry needed confidence and certainty to push through the difficult times and be ready on the other side to contribute to agriculture’s $10-billion-by-2030 target. “Agricultural shows and field days are supported by more than 50,000 volunteers and about 4000 showmen and women,” she said. “They make a significant social and economic contribution to my electorate and hundreds of Australian communities. “They support farm innovation and the productivity and

profitability of our agricultural industries.” Federal Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said agricultural events and organisations had incurred significant financial losses for consecutive years. “Those hit hardest are the local showmen and women – often small, independent, sole traders or family-based operations that cannot absorb the costs,” he said. “The flow-on effects to local communities like those in Mallee will be felt for years.”

New pulses outlined at Nhill field day 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

immera graingrowers have gained insight into new lentil and field-pea varieties at a Southern Pulse Agronomy Field Day at Nhill.

Senior research scientist Dr Jason Brand said the day provided growers with access to the latest, ‘locally validated’ research that would help them maximise every dollar earned through their pulse crops. “The field day showcased in-the-

field, practical research that will directly benefit local growers,” he said. “Victorian growers produce highquality pulses that are sought after by key markets in India and South East Asia” As part of the Southern Pulse Agronomy Project, which includes trial sites across Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales and Western Australia, the field day brought together information for growers to help them tackle problems they faced with pulse

crops. New lentil and field-pea varieties offering growers higher yields and a better ability to manage weeds, disease and soil types were among features as part of the research presentations. Among the pea varieties on display were two recently released options for the 2022 growing season: PBA Noosa and PBA Taylor. PBA Taylor will be the best variety to grow in environments prone to virus diseases because it has resistance

to two viruses – pea seed-borne mosaic virus and bean leafroll virus. PBA Noosa is a high-yielding, blue pea variety ideal for the domesticsplitting market, boasting a 25 percent long-term yield advantage over Excell. The field day also featured recent releases from National Lentil Breeding Program, NLBP. Research scientist Dr Arun Shunmugam said the field day updated growers on yield potentials and mar-

ket classes of recent lentil releases under the program. The NLBP focuses on providing high-yielding lines with appropriate tolerances to biotic and abiotic constraints in a diverse range of agroecological regions. Frontier Farming Systems hosted the field day on behalf of Agriculture Victoria and Grains Research and Development Corporation.

Did you know we also do windscreens for buses, trucks and farm machinery! OUT AND ABOUT: The arrival of warm weather across the region is providing a ‘wake-up call’ for our ectothermic or ‘cold-blooded’ reptiles that rely on external heat to control their body temperature and metabolism. This means that our snakes as well as various types of lizard have emerged from winter torpors and are now in search of food and mates. Sherri Hicks spotted this venomous eastern brown snake, potentially deadly but also protected, on the move at Horsham weir. Snakes play a critical role in the environment and advice is for people and their pets to give this type of wildlife a wide berth.

Samhain ushered in the ‘dark half of the year’ when the barriers between the physical and spiritual world broke down allowing interaction between humanity and the underworld.

BYD steals crown

New BYD e6 arrives on Australian soil from $39,999 plus on-road costs

G Motor’s reign as the provider of Australia’s mostaffordable electric vehicle is over, with the first 15 examples of BYD’s e6 wagon having just landed Down Under, priced from $39,999 plus on-roads, or as little as $40,968.10 driveaway depending on what state it is purchased.

In a double blow for MG, the e6 also thrashes the ZS EV in terms of driving range, with the newcomer offering up 520km on a single charge based on the WLTP testing cycle, whereas the established SUV can only cover 263km. The secret to the e6’s colossal range – for the price – is its 71.7kWh ‘Blade battery’ developed and produced inhouse by BYD, which drives a front axle-mounted electric motor that develops 70kW-180Nm. For comparison, the ZS EV’s electric motor scores back a few points

Even in Western Australia, where the driveaway price is at its highest – $43,268.09 – the e6 undercuts the MG ZS EV’s $44,490 driveaway sticker by more than $1000.

with a much more substantial 105kW353Nm peak output rating. The e6 can be charged using both AC and DC, the latter up to 60kW, 10kW more than the MG. No 0-100kmh time is quoted by BYD, although it has confirmed a 130kmh top speed. Visually, the overall package resembles a slightly taller wagon version of Hyundai’s aging Ioniq small car, with an uncannily similar front fascia design, saved for the contrasting grille insert colour on the Korean.

Under the skin is a McPherson strut front suspension set-up and a multilink rear, with the body measuring 4695mm long, 1810mm wide and 1670mm tall on a 2800mm wheelbase. Disc brakes feature in all four corners behind standard alloy wheels. Inside the cabin are leather seats, a rotating infotainment display and a rotary drive selector, while locking and unlocking is taken care of by a smart key. Announcing the e6’s arrival on Aussie soil via LinkedIn, True Green

Group chief executive Luke Todd said the ‘EV revolution is here’. Distributed in Australia by EV Direct, the e6 will be followed by the Yuan Plus compact SUV, pre-orders for which will open next month ahead of first deliveries in the second quarter of 2022. Australian pricing and specs are yet to be announced. EV Direct also sells the BYD T3 electric van that has a 300km WLTP range and 700kg payload, priced from $35,950 before on-road costs. – Callum Hunter

BMW tweaks its M135i hot hatch

MW Australia has set about tweaking its M135i xDrive hot hatch with a series of chassis enhancements to make the all-paw range-topper even more dynamic for the new model year.

DYNAMIC: Enhancements to BMW Australia’s M135i xDrive hot hatch are designed to make the all-paw range-topper even more dynamic for the new model year. and M ‘shades’ such as ‘Sao Paulo Yellow non-metallic’, ‘Frozen Orange metallic’ and ‘Frozen Pure Grey’ being added. There’s been no word yet on if the upgrades will affect the M135i’s current $70,900 sticker price or if they

will be applied to the cut-price Pure version as well, however the vast majority of its standard equipment list is expected to be carried over. For reference, equipment highlights on the 1 Series flagship include leather upholstery, adaptive LED headlights,

a Harman Kardon sound system, M Sport steering wheel, electrically adjustable M Sport front seats, a headup display, dual-zone climate control, comfort access and a panoramic glass roof. No changes have been made to the

Due to arrive Down Under in the first quarter of next year, the updated M135i has been treated to retuned springs and dampers, increased front wheel camber values, new front wishbone hydro-mounts and redesigned rear control arm mounts. According to BMW, these changes result in ‘sharper handling and less body roll when pushing hard as well as improved steering feel’. The company said the modifications ‘reinforce the ability of the BMW M135i xDrive to deliver BMW’s hallmark driving pleasure. “Its chassis technology combines with the engine’s performance characteristics and BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive to create a composed overall package for a richly engaging drive,” a spokesperson said. Further enhancing the drive experience, albeit in a less tactile way, is a revised synthetic noise system which has been ‘more authentic’ than before, building on the exhaust’s already naturally feisty tones. Helping distinguish the updated versions will be an expanded colour palette, with a heap of BMW individual

turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine lurking under the bonnet, which continues to pump out 225kW-450Nm. As indicated by the ‘xDrive’ nomenclature in its full name, the M135i sends its power and torque to all four wheels via and a standard limited-slip differential. Gear shifting duties are still taken care of by an eight-speed automatic transmission. Other go-faster goodies that come as standard include a limited-slip differential front, M Sport brakes, an M Sport steering tune and the usual array of drive modes. Standard safety features comprise lane-departure warning, lane-change warning, approach-control warning with city-braking intervention, rear cross-traffic warning, rear collision prevention, speed-limit information, parking assistant with parking sensors, a rearview camera and reversing assistant. BMW Australia has sold 2111 1 Series so far this year ending September 30, accounting for 25.5 percent of the $40,000-plus small car segment. When its sales figures are combined with those of its mechanical twin, the 2 Series Gran Coupe – 1635 units or 19.8 percent – BMW holds the monopoly on the segment with a 45.3 percent share, besting the MercedesBenz A-Class’ 39.2 percent share. – Callum Hunter

GWM Oz set to launch ORA EV

he affordable electric vehicle battle lines are being drawn in the sand in Australia as more and more brands throw their hats in the ring as providers of budgetfriendly, sustainable mobility, and it seems the next big contender could be GWM.

It is no secret the Chinese manufacturer has been looking to launch its own dedicated EV sub-brand, ORA, in Australia, but recent trademark filings with IP Australia point to more and more ducks being lined up and even revealing the most likely models to get a start Down Under. Founded in 2018, ORA stands for ‘Open, Reliable and Alternative’ and has been marketed in China and Europe as a ‘new generation of electric car’ specifically for ‘stylish, smarter and safer’ city transport. The first ORA-related trademark applications were submitted on May 8 of this year and revolve around the brand’s badge – a plump exclamation mark. The emblem was filed under classes nine, computer programs; 12, vehicles; 35, marketing; and 37, vehicle refuelling and maintenance, which is a clear indication of GWM’s intention to secure the logo Down Under in most relevant applications. On September 30, however, a trio of new filings was submitted specifi-

CONTENDER: A ‘new generation of electric car’ specifically for ‘stylish, smarter and safer’ city transport will find its way to Australia. cally relating to the ‘ORA’ brand name under all of the same classes as the emblem was. The first two are really pretty simple; ‘GWM ORA’ and ‘ORA’, meaning the emblem now has both a full-length and shortened name to match. The third one, however, ‘Aure’, is a little more mysterious as it seems like a model nameplate, but not one that is currently offered in existing ORA markets or mentioned on the brand’s global website. Australia is not the only market to

have had the mystery nameplate submitted for trademarking, with India being the other one of note, however outlets there have speculated the Aure to be a new Haval-branded SUV. We are not so sure on the other hand, as Aure is a traditional Latin and Greek name meaning ‘soft breeze’, perfectly aligning with the traditional ethos and sustainability themes favoured by EV makers. The link between the ORA brand and the Aure nameplate is their identical font style, which differs from that

of the GWM Pickup division or Haval brand, virtually cementing their relationship – at least Down Under. As usual with trademark applications, there are no indications as to exact timeframes on ORA’s arrival in our market, let alone which models it will offer up first, but we would hazard a guess for it to be within the next few years given the amount of groundwork being laid. GWM Australia and New Zealand head of marketing and communications Steve Maciver said the brand

had recognised the growing importance of EVs and would love to offer ORA product here, but the project had not been given the green light, yet. If it is given the green light, ORA would be wading into what’s quickly becoming one of the most important corners of the market, as more and more brands, both new and established, offer increasingly affordable sustainable vehicles. Just last week, the MG ZS EV was stripped of its crown as the most affordable EV offered in Australia by the BYD e6, however the first of the latter’s allocations only contained 15 units – the two models also occupy different segments. “ORA is specially made for city travel advocating more stylish, smarter and safer travel mode,” the brand said at its 2018 launch. “ORA’s vision is to become the leader in electric cars with targeted users of the new generation of urban youth who have open, friendly, happy and confident attitude to life. “They are reliable and responsible, love challenges, have their own value judgments about life and work, also they don’t follow the crowd. “They are the slash youth of new urban life.” – Callum Hunter

Porsche confirms hardcore GT RS

orsche’s world-renowned GT RS portfolio is about to be expanded with the addition of the 718 Cayman GT4 RS, the introduction of which will mark the first time the ‘RS’ moniker has been applied to a 718.

Due to be officially revealed next month, few details of baby RS have been locked in so far, however Porsche has confirmed that a camouflaged early production vehicle shod with sticky Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tyres lapped the full Nurburgring Nordschleife circuit in 7:09.3 minutes. The same car completed the slightly shorter 20.6km lap in 7:04.5 minutes – a full 23.6 seconds faster than the standard GT4.

While we’re yet to hear of any concrete figures in terms of power outputs, outright performance and kerb weight, backtracking through the usual RS recipe and examining the GT4 gives us a few insights into the hottest Cayman to date. Whatever the final outputs end up being, we can be sure the GT4 RS will be powered by a 4.0-litre flat sixcylinder petrol engine with a sky-high redline and a healthy power increase over the standard car. Given the last-generation 911 GT3 RS boasted a 15kW power advantage over its donor car, it would be more than reasonable to expect a similar power bump for the GT4 RS, which would take the final kilowatt count up to about 324.

Torque should also be up around 10Nm, potentially taking the peak figure to 440Nm in PDK guise. That extra shove should combine nicely with a 10-20kg weight advantage afforded by the minimalist interior and a few extra kilo-saving measures, not to mention the more aggressive aero features. The results, according to brand ambassador and development driver Jörg Bergmeister, make the GT4 RS ‘one of the sharpest cars Porsche has ever developed’. The new-generation 718 is expected to break cover sometime in 2024 or 2025 – right before the Euro7 emissions regulations come into effect in 2026. – Callum Hunter

NEW ADDITION: Porsche’s world-renowned GT RS portfolio is about to be expanded with the addition of the 718 Cayman GT4 RS.

COMITTI, Robert William “Bob”

DICKERSON, Perce

Our dearly loved brother, uncle and friend. The tears in our eyes we can wipe away, The ache in our hearts will always stay. Loved and remembered every day. Rest peacefully. Nettie, Peter and family

13.8.1946 – 21.10.2021 Dearly loved husband of Marie. Cherished father and fatherin-law of Therese, Jamie and Dean. Honoured “Chief ” of Wil. Passed away suddenly. “So dearly loved, so sadly missed, until we meet again.” A private funeral service will be held due to COVID restrictions. Messages of Condolence to pass on to family may be sent to admin@hdf.com.au

~ COMITTI ~ Robert William (Bob/Chief) I will love you forever. So sudden. So sad. So unfair. Until we meet again. Love Marie Our dad Everyone’s mate Who’s beer will we pinch? Cheers Chief Therese, Jamie & Dean He was Chief to me. Bob and Robert to others, but regardless of what title he fell under the man behind it never changed. A man with a deep laugh and sharp wit, a hard worker with a knack for painting. I remember staying over weeknights after school and a nightly habit I learned of quickly was that nine news was the ONLY option in terms of the evening news. To even mention another channel that broadcast the news could get you kicked out of the house. The mornings before school always smelt of bacon and eggs. Chief didn’t cook often but his bacon and eggs most certainly made up for it. I am truly lucky to have spent Chief ’s final night with him before his passing. Such an incredible man. A night I have solidified in my memory that will live with me forever. Wil

DICKERSON, Perce

My little brother so gentle and kind my love for you Perce will always be. Another link gone from our family chain until we are together again. At peace with Dad and Ian. Your loving sister Nooz and Brian You were one of a kind Uncle Perce and we truly hope you have found peace at last. Love Adam and Rebecca Uncle Perce Special memories of many morning and afternoon teas at Nana’s with you during school holidays and beyond. Pure kindness. Now at peace. Love Sally, Chris, Leni and Arky

DICKERSON ~ Perce ~

1-11-59 to 11-10-21 My brother, my mentor, my best friend. We shared a bond, right till the end. I adored you Perce, since I was small. The day you left me was the toughest day of all. You’ve taught me so many things, resilience and to be strong. So with a broken heart, I will continue to carry on. Life isn’t the same, how can it be? But I know from the worldly cares, you are finally free. Rest peacefully my big brother. Daren ••• You left us all without a goodbye, The reason behind it, only you know why. Your presence on earth we will sadly miss, We send you our love, sealed with a gentle kiss. Kellie, Beau, Bianca, Staci, Miley and Koa

He will run to you

This is a story of us and God. It is amazing to think that God, the father in the story, is waiting there for us to accept His gift of hope, not only waiting but when we take a step towards God He runs to us. So step towards God, the hope that we will find security in, that we will not be in fear but rather live a life of courage. I have no doubt if you head towards God he will run to you.

8:45 - 6

With a range of ready to go meals, made in house and supporting our regional gourmet producers.

So far we have seen that hope; real lasting hope comes from God and is different from the hope of the world. If we accept this gift from God it can gives us courage for the future. We have seen it is for all, anyone can accept it and today I want to finish with the truth that hope is there waiting for us. There is a story in the Bible that we find in Luke 15:11-32. Here we are told of a son who goes and asks for his inheritance even before his father has died. This is shocking enough but then he goes and spends it all quickly on a lavish lifestyle. While he was doing this he had many friends but when the money dried up they all left him. He decides to go back home and ask for work with his father but we are told that when he was far off, far away in the distance, his father saw him. Not only did he see his son but he ran to greet him and they also celebrated his return with a party.

‘Glory’ be at harness meet S

BY TONY LOGAN

helbourne trainer Kate Hargreaves notched up a winning double at last Thursday’s Horsham harness-racing meeting with five-year-old mare Honour Before Glory.

Honour Before Glory won The Weekly Advertiser Pace and stablemate Blackbird Miss the Alabar Vicbred Platinum Maiden Pace. A recent arrival from New Zealand, Honour Before Glory made it two from two in Australia as she cruised to the line 17 metres clear of her rivals. She won in a rate of 1:57.3 over the 2200-metre journey with Hargreaves’ foreman Jack McKinnon in the sulky. Lightly raced Blackbird Miss, with Josh Duggan aboard, made full advantage of the pole draw and led from go to whoa over its 1700-metre sprint. Hargreaves, who grew up in Stawell, sits in fourth spot on the Victorian premiership list with 84 winners and is on track to top the ton by the end of 2021. Bannockburn trainer Geoff Webster took advantage of a claim for Ballarat concession driver Connor Clarke to capture the West Side Horsham Pace with three-year-old gelding Belmont Royale. After enjoying a perfect run throughout on the back of the leader Flying Art, Belmont Royale used the sprint lane over the final stages to score by

STRIDING HOME: Emma Stewart-trained filly Southern Burgundy, with Bailey McDonough aboard, scored a last-stride victory over hot favourite No Win No Worries in the 2021 Alabar Horsham three-year-old classic. Picture: TONY LOGAN two metres from Cee Cee In America – Abbey Sanderson – and Hugo Rocks – James Herbertson – in a rate of 2:02.1. Webster made it a stable double later in the day, when he piloted a recent addition to his team, Be A Good Scout, to an all-the-way victory in the $7000 Finn Tack Pace. Earlier in the week at Swan Hill, Horsham-owned and trained two-yearold colt Flash Jimmy was victorious in The VHRC Bonuses Pace over 1750 metres. Driver Aaron Dunn restrained Flash Jimmy to the rear of the eight-horse

field at the start and was content to bide his time as the leaders posted slick early sectionals. At the 600-metre mark, Dunn followed Kerryn Manning and first-starter Jet Rock in a three-wide forward move into the race. Wider again on straightening for home, Flash Jimmy charged to the line to score by a 1.5-metre margin in a rate of 1:55.4. It was the second win from five outings for owner Steve Blacker’s nicely bred son of A Rocknroll Dance USA and on what we have seen to date, certainly won’t be his last. Charlton trainer Greg Norman’s five-

year-old gelding Blue Coman backed up just two days after an unplaced effort at Ballarat to take out the VHRCAldebaran Park Trotters Handicap at Swan Hill. With regular driver Kerryn Manning again in control, the grey steadily overcame a 30-metre handicap to be one-one at the bell on the back of Jazspur – Michael Bellman. Manning angled her charge wider at the top of the home straight and Blue Coman proved too strong for the brave death-seater over the final stages to notch up his sixth career victory for owners, Cormack Racing SA.

Muszkieta loft shines John Muszkieta has rounded off an outstanding Horsham Racing Pigeon Club season with a win from Wonthaggi, the club’s final race for 2021. Wonthaggi is more than 350 kilometres to most lofts in Horsham district and weather conditions featured a mild south-southwest breeze along the flight path. The club had 21 races for the year, of which 10 counted towards a championship award. Muszkieta won five of the 10 races to win the award convincingly. In the final race for 2021, eight members entered 91 pigeons. Sixteen arrived in the first batch after a five-and-a-half-hour flight. The release was at 9.05am and the leading pigeons arrived at 2.40pm having flown together for much of the journey, averaging about 63kmh for the flight. The race was in memory of the late Bob Arnott, a popular club lifemember renowned for helping other racers and newcomers to the sport. Results – Section one for small teams: 1, McPhee family at 1056.26 metres a minute; 2, Dennis Smith. Section two for large teams: 1, John Muszkieta 1058.7mm; 2, Rob Nelson 1,056.2mm; 3, Brian Watts, 1045.16mm.

Doyle keen to build from within BY SARAH MATTHEWS

eveloping and retaining future club leaders while helping guide the senior football side back up the ranks is a driving force behind incoming Laharum senior coach Glenn Doyle.

Doyle, who brings a wealth of playing and coaching experience to the role, is looking forward to building on ‘solid bonds’ he created during his three-year stint at the Horsham District league club. A key position player, Doyle finished his playing career with the Demons in 2009. He said he was excited to take on the senior coaching role for 2022 and 2023 after being handed the reins by experienced leader Shannon Argall. Argall, who has stepped down due to family and work commitments, will remain at the club in a playing capacity. “I’m grateful to the club for this opportunity,” Doyle said. “I think I understand the situation the club is in and I know there’s some hard work to be done, but I’m excited to take over and help develop these young men into the next generation of football leaders.” Doyle said he believed his extensive football knowledge and ability to teach players certain positions as part of a wider game plan would be among

his coaching assets. He spent three years playing for Port Melbourne in the VFA-VFL before moving to the Wimmera, where he spent nine years with Horsham Saints, including stints as assistant coach and later, senior coach. He then took on a playing coach role at Hamilton before finishing his playing career at Cameron Oval. “Throughout that time at Laharum I built some solid relationships which I look forward to continuing,” Doyle said. After retiring, Doyle tried his hand at field umpiring as his sons John and Thomas evolved through Horsham’s junior program in Wimmera league. “As they’ve grown up and gone onto boarding school and spread their wings, I’ve been travelling to watch them play,” Doyle said. “This next chapter is exciting, because I think Thomas, my youngest son, will play for Laharum next year, which will be great.” Doyle said he had spent the past few days working the phones as he looked to shore up the playing list while ‘soaking up information like a sponge’. He said he was thrilled to retain Argall, who was a key player in the Demons’ 2013 premiership and coached the side to a flag in 2015. “To have someone who has coached as long as he has and had the success

hands to take on supporting roles. Hopefully that will help generate some enthusiasm and positivity as we start the long trek back up the ladder.” Defender Brett Ervin will be Doyle’s playing assistant coach in 2022. “He’s super keen to get his teeth into the role and I’ve heard nothing but great reports,” Doyle said. “I’m looking forward to working with him.” Laharum will start pre-season training following the Christmas-new year break. “Pre-season is relatively short – you’ve usually only got about 12 weeks – but I believe the groundwork for a season can be laid in that time,” Doyle said. “You can definitely have yourself ready and I’m looking forward to the challenge.” Laharum football director Hamish Roberts said Doyle’s signing had already generated plenty of excitement at the club. “Glenn has a wealth of experience and knowledge through a successful career playing and coaching at high levels of football, including at Port Melbourne, Horsham Saints and Hamilton before finishing his playing career at Laharum,” he said. “He will bring to the role quality communication skills, attention to detail, professionalism and a hunger for success.”

NEW DIRECTION: Laharum Football Netball Club football director Hamish Roberts, left, congratulates Glenn Doyle on signing on as senior coach. that he’s had, in our playing group and on the field – I can’t put a value on it to be honest,” he said. “We’re also in the process of talking to several potential players, which we will hopefully have more information about soon.” The Demons finished 10th in 2021 and Doyle said he was under no illu-

sions about the amount of work to be done as he looked to help the senior side progress back up the ladder. “It will be quite an exercise, but I’m hoping to be able to keep those young guys coming through while enticing a few more to the club,” he said. “I’m buoyed by a lot of off-field stuff, such as people putting up their

Juniors challenge for country squad T

Lay-by NOW

8 weeks until Christmas!

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

en under-14 Wimmera basketballers will be hoping to impress scouts at a camp in Bendigo next month as they vie for a spot on a Basketball Victoria country representative team.

The talented juniors have won selection to a Gold Nugget Camp, where they will compete for selection to attend the 2022 Country Metro Challenge. The new event replaces annual tournaments cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the Australian Country Junior Basketball Challenge and Southern Cross Challenge. Horsham Amateur Basketball Association will be well represented at the Gold Nugget Camp, with Riley Downer, Archie Elliott, Oakley Farr, Micah Livingstone, Elijah McKenzie and Levi Munyard to showcase their skills at Bendigo Stadium on November 13. Ararat Basketball Association’s Nevani Woods and Horsham association’s Cara Tippet, Maddison Bethune and Sienna Manserra will be put through their paces the following day. Both dates are subject to easing of COVID-19 restrictions across Victoria. Micah, 13, said he was excited about the opportunity to attend a Gold Nugget Camp after two years of cancelled and interrupted competitions due to the pandemic. “It’s going to be a lot of fun and good to return to the court,” he said. “I’ve missed basketball quite a lot during lockdown and it will be good to get back into it and play some games.” Micah, a year-seven student at Horsham College, said he had continued to train despite lockdowns, putting up shots on a court at home. Nevani, 12, said she was surprised to receive an invitation to the camp. “Both my brothers have been to it a few years ago, so it should be good,” she said. Horsham association president Jon Fitzgerald said it was exciting to see the juniors score

preparation. This 1600-metre event is the main goal for him this spring and back to Flemington will suit – we won’t get the mammoth price again, but in a competitive race he’s sure to be value. Looking ahead to Tuesday, Horsham hoop Dean Yendall is likely to partner Future Score in the $7.75-million Melbourne Cup. The lightweight jockey will ride at just 51.5kg for the Matt Cumani-trained galloper, who is stepping out to the 3200-metre distance for the first time. Building towards the cup with three tough runs this time in, the seven-year-old gelding will start one of the outsiders of the 24-horse field but has a good fitness base heading into the big race. Yendall said he had fielded inquiries from connections of two other runners, but is expected to stick with Future Score, who is a surprise acceptor for the race. “Connections didn’t expect to make it to this situation with him,” Yendall said. “There’s a bonus for accepting in the Melbourne Cup, but not making the field that carries over to the Queen Elizabeth Stakes, which is where we thought we’d be.” Trainer Cumani echoed those thoughts. “The Queen Elizabeth is probably a more suitable race for him, but he’s tracking along nicely and we can’t turn an opportunity like this down,” he said. Cumani is confident his galloper will put in a strong performance and threw his support behind Yendall to ride him in the cup. – Josh Miller

EXPRE REMINGTON

Wyche cup and Flemington The biggest day of Australian racing is upon us on Saturday when Flemington will host Derby Day, featuring four Group One races in the first leg of the Melbourne Cup Carnival. For racing fans, this is like Christmas Day. Less spoken about, however, just 273 kilometres away from the roses and glamour of Flemington, a race predating the WS Cox Plate will be run – the time-honoured Mt Wycheproof Cup. It is one of the most iconic and enjoyable country race meetings of the year, one every race fan should have on the bucket list. This year’s program attracted a whopping 297 nominations and it is little wonder why; the track is looking superb. Good rain, tireless volunteers and a fancy new mower has the racing surface peaking at the right time. Though the prizemoney on offer falls a little short of our city counterparts, it is well-worth tuning in for a look at this fantastic race day. It looks a competitive card too, but it always pays to save a little of your punting money and invest in the Austy Coffey runners throughout the day. He’s trained a winner or two there over the years. Paul Preusker’s stable star Lunar Fox is out to win his second Group One prize in the $2-million Canatala Stakes at Flemington on Saturday. The four-year-old son of Foxwedge, who lined our pockets with cash after winning the Australian Guineas last year at astronomical odds of $301, is coming off a solid sixth at Caulfield three weeks ago in the Group One Toorak Handicap. He looks set to peak at his fourth run this

Queen invitations to the camp after a difficult couple of years. “It’s not only great to see the athletes get this opportunity, it also provides a sense of normality,” he said. “They are all worthy invitees. I’m super proud of them and happy to see them start their Basketball Victoria pathway journey.” The boys and girls camps form the foundation of future success at state and national level. Mr Fitzgerald said plans for the resumption of basketball competition were falling into place, with association leaders closely monitoring evolving COVID-19 regulations. “We’re starting our domestic competition on November 15 and had our final CBL tryout on Monday night,” he said. He said the association would name men and women’s teams later this week, with the Country Basketball League competition on track to start in late November. “Our representative squad teams are back training and should kick off the tournament season at the start of December, which is really exciting,” he said. “At the moment, the wheels are turning for what will hopefully be a fairly normal season for everyone.”
