THE NEWSPAPER OF THE SNOWY MONARO REGION
We remembered them...
Remembrance day last Friday saw commemoration services held across the Snowy Monaro region. One very poignant service was conducted at Bullocks Hill, west of Kiandra, which was attended by members of the Light Horse and many other mountain horsemen and women. As well as remembering the service men and women who gave their lives in World War One, this ceremony also honoured the memory of the horses who served the Light Horse Brigades and did not return home. Many Snowy Mountain brumbies are believed to be descendants of those horses.

Amanda Zappia and Anusha Zappia, Damien Lane, Darryl Currie, Anna Dinh, Rob Letts, Lady Keys, Johanna Leglise, Elizabeth Croudace, Hubert Zhang, Adeline Lam and Ratan Venkatesan. Bombala’s Remembrance Day service was particularly significant this year, with the impressive miniature medal collection of the late Sir William Keys donated to the Bombala RSL Sub Branch. Bill’s medals were previously displayed at Hurlstone Agricultural High School after his death in 2000. With the school moving to the Western Sydney University Hawkesbury campus from Glenfield, the location was considered no longer appropriate. Lady Keys, who attended the ceremony with her daughters on Friday, requested that the medals be transferred to Bombala. “It means a lot to me to have Bill’s medals here in Bombala,” she said. “Bombala is his home town. This is where he joined the RSL
COOMA
during his first leave and I know he would be very pleased to have his medals displayed here.” Growing up on his family’s farm ‘Kooracca’ at Ando, Bill had aspirations of becoming a farmer, but instead joined the army. His military career was significant. Enlisting in 1940, he served in the AIF in New Guinea. He was injured at the battle of Tarakan in 1945 and invalided home. He served in the Korean War with the 3rd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment. He was awarded the Military Cross for outstanding ability and courage especially at Chunchon in March 1951. Chunchon was a town near the 38th parallel and held by Chinese troops who were fighting alongside the North Koreans. Prior to the Korean War, Bill
was elected to the State Council of the RSL. He became National RSL Secretary in 1961 and then President in 1978, which he held for 10 years. He also served as International President of the Federation of Korean War Veterans’ in 1970 and Companion of the Order of Australia in 1988. He was knighted in 1979. President of the Bombala RSL Rob Letts said to the 300-strong crowd at the Bombala Cenotaph on Friday that it was a great honour to bring the Bill Keys link back to the town. “Bill’s whole life was dedicated to his military career and was dedicated to those who served.” “We believe that this is the right spot for his medals.”

Berridale business community boost
The Berridale business community is a singing a positive tune following the reformation of the Berridale Chamber of Commerce (BCC). Locals have thrown their support behind the move with about 20 businesses already signed up as chamber members. In what’s been deemed an exciting time to own a business in town, the chamber envisages a new era of economic activity in Berridale. With a number of businesses recently opening their doors, the chamber said it’s important to capture this momentum and ensure they’re a strong advocate for Berridale. “It’s been a positive start with lots of new members. Businesses wanted the chamber back and our voice is
growing louder,” Annie O’Keefe, BCC publicity officer, said. “With so many new businesses in town it’s the perfect opportunity to restart the chamber.” “We want to encourage more business to join up as chamber members and help businesses open up.” The BCC is preparing to stage its first event with Carols in the Park making a much anticipated return. Set down for Friday, December 16, the carols will light up Berridale Lions Park between 6-9pm. It’s been four years since both the chamber and carols were last seen in Berrdale. The chamber was formed in 2006 and then disbanded despite a strong period between 2010-2012.
“Carols in the Park is the first big event the chamber will hold. The last carols were in 2012 and lots of people enjoy it, so it’ll be great to see them back,” Ms O’Keefe said. The chamber has identified three priority projects as their first order of business. They will endeavour to launch a new website to help boost their profile and that of their members. A series of Berridale brochures will be released to provide information about the community services and businesses in town. A map is also in the pipeline so locals and visitors can easily access the services they require. The chamber held its AGM a month ago where it received a glowing endorsement from the president of the Capital Far South Coast
Business Chamber, Gary Ryan, who attended the meeting. “The chamber has received support from the NSW Chamber of Commerce. By becoming a member of our chamber for only $65 each financial year, you can receive assistance from the NSW Chamber with workplace issues. The BCC executive committee was formed with the position of president still to be filled. Kirsty Ross was elected as vice-president, secretary is Pauline Syron-Coxon, treasurer is Carl Fenton, and public officer is Annie O’Keefe. “Berridale is becoming a place want to stop in, it’s receiving a lot of interest,” Pauline SyronCoxon, BCC secretary, said. “We’re passionate
about the community.”

Cooma court report Jack Vincent Riley, 21, of Cooma has been imprisoned after he was convicted of affray. Appearing in Cooma Court on October 20, Riley was sentenced to 10 months imprisonment with a release date of August 19 2017. Police saw Riley and another man fighting outside the fish and chip shop on Massie Street, Cooma on August 21 2016. Both men had hold of one another and were shouting, they then began to throw punches at one another, not stopping until police were right in front of them. Remaining aggressive, police handcuffed Riley who kept saying “Take me back to gaol” and “If I punch you in the face, will I go to gaol?” Continuing to show aggressive behaviour and with the Rotary markets on in the park at the time, there were people nearby, causing fear for their safety. A 24-year-old man from Avalon Beach was caught driving only two days after he had been suspended for a drink driving charge in Jindabyne. Blowing 0.113, Mitchell Jack McConochie faced Cooma Court on charges of drink driving, driving while suspended and possession of a prohibited
drug. Upon searching his vehicle, police found three caps containing the drug MDMA. McConochie was fined a total of $2,200, disqualified from driving for a total of 11 months, an interlock order of 24 months and has been placed on a good behaviour bond of a total 16 months. Zachary Lloyd Glasby, 21, has been convicted of unlawful entry of closed lands. He and an accomplice, who were both under a lifetime ban from the Banjo Paterson Inn, scaled the walls of the hotel and entered the building via a balcony. The balcony was attached to an accommodation room where two small children and their mother were watching television. They were reportedly very frightened when the two men entered the room. They exited the room and headed into the main hotel area. Security was alerted and Glasby’s accomplice was arrested. Glasby presented himself at the Jindabyne Police Station the following day, where he was arrested. He was fined $330 for
the offence. Ashley Brian Allen, 24, has been fined $330 and disqualified from driving for three months after he was found to be driving a vehicle on September 21, as a never licensed person. The Cooma man was also fined another $550, disqualified for a further 12 months and placed on a seven-month good behaviour bond for driving during a disqualification period from a previous conviction. Rod Raymond Allen, a 43-year-old Cooma man, was also convicted of the same charges, as a never licensed person driving on the road and for driving during a disqualification period. Police pulled over the vehicle at Polo Flat Road on October 4. Allen has been fined a total of $770 and disqualified from driving for 15 months. Dean Barry Gibson of Berridale was convicted of a mid range PCA offence. Driving in Jindabyne at 12.25am on August 23, Gibson was pulled over for a breath test. Blowing 0.107, Gibson recently faced Cooma Court where he was fined $550 and disqualified from driving for six months.

John Barilaro new Nationals leader and Deputy Premier
Rally to save brumbies
Member for the Monaro and NSW Minister for Regional Development, Skills and Small Business John Barilaro has accepted the role as Leader of the NSW Nationals, with Minister for Primary Industries, Lands and Water Niall Blair elected as Deputy. Mr Barilaro thanked his National Party colleagues for the honour and took the opportunity to pay tribute to former NSW Nationals leader and Deputy Premier Troy Grant. “I thank the NSW Nationals for this privilege of representing them and the people of NSW,” Mr Barilaro said. “I thank Troy for his tireless work for the party as leader, for his professional and caring approach to the role and his friendship along the way. “I promise to bring the same passion, drive and work ethic to this role just as I have done so working for my electorate, the Monaro, and Cabinet portfolios. “I am proud of what the NSW Nationals have achieved so far, building the hospitals, roads and schools our communities need to keep them strong, but I know there is much more work to do to regain the trust and rebuild the reputation of the NSW Nationals as proud representatives of regional NSW in Australia’s oldest
Parliament.” Mr Blair said he is looking forward to further building on the great work the Nationals have already achieved. “I am extremely honoured to have been elected as Deputy Leader of the only political party which truly represents the core values of regional NSW,” Mr Blair said. “We need to reflect on the outcome of the by-election in Orange but we also need to get on with the job of delivering for our communities, for example by repealing Labor’s hated Native Vegetation Act this week”. Mr Barilaro’s promotion has been well received within the local community. S n o w y M o n a r o R e g i o n a l C o u n c i l administrator Dean Lynch said yesterday Mr Barilaro “got what he deserved” “He has been a very hard-working member for Monaro – he is like a dog with
a bone when it comes to getting outcomes for this region. “I believe this is a really good thing to have our local member in such a high-ranking position”. Bronnie Taylor, MLC, is also excited to have Mr Barilaro as the Leader of the Nationals. “We live in very exciting times in the National Party” she said yesterday. John will make a great leader. He will bring his tenacity and fight to the role and that will work well for our region”. Pictured, John Barilaro is sworn in as Deputy Premier. Mr Barilaro with his daughter Sophia.
Top: Member for Eden-Monaro Mike Kelly talking with Alan Lanyon. Above: Kevin Andrews and Helen Day from Wagga with ‘Jimmy’ the Snowy brumby. ‘Jimmy’ a domesticated brumby, and members of the Snowy Mountains Brumby Sustainability and Management Group Inc, held a peaceful rally at Parliament House, Canberra, on November 9 and 10. The Group called on Minister for Environment Josh Frydenberg to recognise the Snowy Mountains Brumby as being of Heritage Value alongside the already Heritage Listed Value ‘Transhumance Grazing’. President of the group, Alan Lanyon, said: “We want to ensure through legislation that the Snowy Brumby is recognised as part of our history, cultural heritage and social values of the Snowy Mountains”. “The submission seeks to garner the Brumby’s protection into perpetuity, ensuring that future generations are able to maintain the existing connection and cultural enrichment they offer, and the traditions, stories and generational legacy they represent,” he said. Patricia Hoelmer, who travelled from South Australia for the rally said: “The Brumby is iconic – from the story of the Man from Snowy River, the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games where it was showcased to the world, their use as war horses resulting in a significant contribution to our country and of course being synonymous with the Australian outback. They deserve to be protected and their contribution recognised.” “More than 650 Australians have already responded to our
online survey, which gauges public support for the inclusion of the Brumby on the National Heritage List. Responses include people’s perceptions, stories and individual connections to the Brumby, which will be circulated,” she said. (https:// survey.fbapp.io/brumby-heritagesurvey) Ms Hoelmer said it is also hoped the heritage listing would help stop the Baird Government’s proposal to cull the Kosciuszko Brumby under its Wild Horse Management Plan. “The proposed cull is cruel and inhumane methods such as shooting are strongly opposed. We hope that the Baird Government will listen to the hundreds of thousands of Australians who also oppose its plan, but in the event it does not, then heritage listing of the Brumby will strengthen the case, if not eliminate the possibility altogether,” she said. Jimmy’s owner Helen Day, from near Wagga Wagga, said Jimmy was found alone in 2010 as a young foal in the Snowy Mountains. “There was no mother in sight and a howling pack of wild dogs in the distance so the decision was made to save him,” she said. “Since then Jimmy has been nurtured and carefully handled before becoming the quiet trail-riding, gymkhana going, pony that he is today. He demonstrates the true potential of a brumby when treated with humane methods.”

THE MONARO POST
Administrator’s Column Last week marks six months since the start of Snowy Monaro Regional Council and I am proud to say that we are moving forward in leaps and bounds. We have received so much positive feedback about our improvements and how much the community has gained rather than lost during the last six months. I’d like to thank both the staff and our Local Representative Committees for all of their hard work.
Nimmitabel Preschool recently celebrated 40 years. To commemorate the event, the preschool held their fundraising auction and a cake cutting on Saturday November 5th at the Nimmitabel Country Club and at the preschool. Lots of people came for the cake cutting at the preschool and to reminisce about when our preschool started. It was great to hear all the stories and see some of the children, now adults, who came through. The auction was a huge success with more than 50 items donated
from all over our region. From accommodation in Canberra to family photography sessions and even a heifer were up for bidding. More than $9000 was raised on this night and we wish to thank the whole community for getting behind the preschool and supporting it in such a massive way. A special thanks goes to the fantastic auctioneer Pat Cleaver, John Jardine for being the drive behind this event and the fantastic staff at Nimmitabel Preschool.

Coast trips deadly for pets - vets warning
Major infrastructure projects are about to be assessed and we have $14 million devoted to commencing big-ticket projects (such as streetscapes) and maintaining existing infrastructure thought the area. Also to come out of the $14 million dollar pool are funding for items such as new town entrance signs. Over the past week the Tourism Manager and I have been catching up with community organisations to discuss our conceptual design for new regional and town entrance signs. We have received lots of positive and constructive feedback that will all be compiled and used to complete the final designs. I’m very excited to get the designs completed and in due course installed so that our region has some consistent signage that we are all proud of. We also envisage these signs to be used to our advantage, and will form part of our tourism strategy for the region. Funding for non-for-profit community organisations has again opened, with the second round of the Snowy Monaro Community Grants having $340,000 to be allocated to eligible projects. I encourage all groups to apply for grants – even if you applied in the first round. The application can be found on our website, or in hard copy at all offices. Please make sure that you provide all necessary information and documentation as I would like everyone to have the best possible chance they can to gain funding. Finally, I’d like to congratulate John Barilaro, Member for Monaro, on becoming our new Deputy Premier. This vindicates all the hard work John has been doing for us and NSW in general. Congratulations John. Dean Lynch Administrator
Nimmitabel Preschool rings in 40 years
Snowy Vets in Jindabyne and Cooma have been seeing an increase in cases of Tick Paralysis in recent weeks. The deadly condition is caused by the Paralysis Tick, Ixodes holocyclus, a parasite of dogs, cats, and other mammals. Paralysis ticks do not survive in the Monaro region, but instead infect pets when they visit the coast or northern NSW. Tick Paralysis blocks the signals from nerves to muscles and will cause anything from a wobbly walk to a complete inability for a pet to breathe. The disease can progress rapidly once signs are first noticed so early treatment is critical. Treatment for Tick Paralysis involves antiserum, intensive nursing, oxygen supplementation, and in some cases, ventilation. A case of
tick paralysis will typically cost $1500-$4000 to treat. Some advanced cases can cost $10-20 000 if ventilation is required at specialist hospital facilities. The price of treatment can be prohibitive for some owners, which sadly means that euthanasia is the only humane option. “Considering euthanasia is a horrible and difficult decision for any pet owner, but the welfare of the animals in our care always comes first” says Dr Zachary Lederhose, a veterinarian at Snowy Vets. “Even with the best treatment and medicine, the disease is sometimes too severe, and we
do lose some patients.” The emotional strain of losing pets to paralysis tick also takes its toll on veterinary staff. Nurse Amy Writer says it is devastating to lose pets to a condition that is preventable. “A loved pet dying is the hardest part of the job. When it is from something that is preventable it is heartbreaking.”
Preventative medication given before pets visit the coast is the only way to protect against paralysis tick. A three-monthly chewable tablet is one of the most popular and effective products. Monthly chews or collars are also available. It is important to check with a vet that your pet is getting the right prevention. “Unfortunately, ticks have developed a resistance to some products on the market. Even pets who are up to date with Frontline or Advantix treatments are still becoming affected,” Dr Lederhose said. Snowy Vets will have a stall at the Cooma Rotary Markets on Sunday November 20 where vets and staff will be present to answer questions and share information with pet owners.

Brown Mountain closures The Snowy Mountains Highway will be closed at Brown Mountain from November 16 until November 29. The closure will be from
9.30am to 2.30pm, in both directions. Traffic heading from the Monaro Highway will be directed to use Kings Highway to Bateman’s Bay or
Imlay Road through Bombala. B-Doubles should use Imlay Road, which will result in a significant detour. Local road users should use alternative routes
including Cathcart Road from Bibbenluke and Bombala through Candelo and Mt Darragh Road from Bombala to Pambula.

Incentive to stimulate property growth Snowy Monaro Regional Council has announced plans to immediately reduce water and sewerage contribution charges affecting developers, in a number of key strategic locations within the region, by up to 50 percent. It is a move that’s aimed at accelerating local economic growth. The change in Council policy, effective November 7, provides an opportunity for increased development in the Berridale, East Jindabyne, Tyrolean Village, Kalkite, Adaminaby and Cooma corridors. It is believed that this initiative by Council could be a significant catalyst in progressing development within these clusters. Administrator of Snowy Monaro Regional Council, Dean Lynch, said there is an on-going, whole of Council review into the best ways to accelerate economic growth and create more jobs across the Snowy Monaro Regional Council area. The reduction of developer water and sewerage charges in key areas is aimed at ensuring adequate land is available for housing options for the future. “We want Council to be a facilitator and provide incentives to boost developer confidence and activity in the area. The region offers significant opportunities for our community, and it is hoped that this injection of development will drive the local economies”, he said. The announced development fee
reductions are as follows: AREA DEVELOPMENT FEE REDUCTIONS Berridale - Water & Sewerage Reduction: 30% East Jindabyne - Sewerage Only Reduction: 30% Tyrolean Village - Water & Sewerage Reduction: 10% Kalkite - Water & Sewerage Reduction: 30% Adaminaby - Water Only Reduction: 50% Cooma - Water Reduction: 30% & Sewerage Reduction: 50% Development areas that are currently bound by a Deed of Agreement, or other legal agreements, for the payment of Section 64 fees, are not eligible for the above reductions. Any outstanding fees associated with a Section 68 approval prior to November 7 are still payable at the rate applicable at the time of approval. These reductions will be in place until a new Contributions Plan is developed and adopted by Council in the future. “The aim of this initiative is to get property developments out of the starting gates and into the construction phase as quickly as possible. This is also a vital strategy in future-proofing the area with new population growth for our long-term economic and social sustainability,” Administrator Lynch added. For further information regarding the development fee reductions, please phone Council on 1300 345 345.

Drivers caught with drugs in cars A 54-year-old Broken Hill male was stopped driving for the purpose of a random breath test at 12.07pm November 12 on Kosciuszko Road, Berridale. While talking to the driver police became suspicious and conducted a search of the male’s vehicle. Inside the vehicle police located a small amount of cannabis resin, leaf and seeds. The driver was also subjected to a random drug test, which returned a positive indication to cannabis. The male was arrested and conveyed to the Cooma Police Station where a further test was conducted. The male was suspended from driving and further analysis of the drug sample will be made. He will appear before the Cooma Local Court at a date to be fixed for drug possession. On Monday November 7, a 19-yearold Jindabyne male was stopped and spoken
to by police near Lake Jindabyne, in relation to an earlier traffic incident. During the conversation police believed the male to be under the influence and as a result the male underwent a roadside breath test, which proved positive. During his arrest police noticed an amount of crystal methamphetamine (known as ‘Ice’) on the ground near his vehicle. The male and the drugs were transported to Jindabyne police station. Shortly after police searched the male’s residence where they located and seized several MDMA tablets and a small quantity of ‘Ice’. As a result the male was charged with several drug offences, including supply prohibited drug, possession of prohibited drugs and the original PCA offence. The male was conditionally bailed to appear at Cooma Local Court on November 24.
A small quantity of white powder, believed to be ‘Ice’ was discovered at the Cooma Correctional Centre last week. Upon searching a cell, one foil packet containing 0.03g of the powder was found in a rubbish bin and another foil packet containing 0.01g in the pocket of a 26-year-old male prisoner. There were two incidents of fail to pay at Cooma service stations last week. A 53-year-old male from Canberra was stopped at Williamsdale after he had filled up at the Shell Service Station at the Four Mile and drove off without paying. He was also charged for driving unlicensed. The other incident occurred at the Caltex Service Station at Polo Flat on Thursday November 10. A slim, blonde female was seen filling up a white Holden Commodore before driving away without paying. If anyone has more information, please contact your local police station.
A 55-year-old Jindabyne man was reported missing on Saturday November 12, only to be found later that day. The man departed Stinky Bay on Lake Jindabyne on a jet ski at 9am. Falling off at Hatchery Bay, he was unable to get back on and drifted for some time before coming ashore on Mcevoy Island. The alarm was raised when the man failed to collect his daughter at lunchtime. A friend began to search the lake and police were notified later in the day. Marine Rescue was notified and began their search, but it was the man’s friends that located him on the island at 7.30pm. The man was unharmed. Cooma’s NSW Fire and Rescue attended a small fire on Sharp Street on Monday morning after a rubbish bin outside Kuma Pies had caught alight. Firefighters believe a cigarette that was not properly extinguished started the fire.

Yarrangobilly wins unique accommodation award
National Parks and Wildlife Service’s (NPWS) Yarrangobilly Caves House has received a commendation award in the Unique Accommodation category at the Canberra and Region Tourism Awards on Friday November 11. Nestled in the picturesque Yarrangobilly Valley in the northern edge of Kosciuszko National Park, the lovingly restored heritage accommodation allows guests to revel in the wonder of a bygone era. Manager of the Yarrangobilly Caves precinct, Mr George Bradford, said NPWS is thrilled to have received the commendation award among such a high calibre field of nominees. “Following a long period of closure, Yarrangobilly Caves House was reopened as basic accommodation in 2007 and has since gone from strength to strength,” Mr Bradford said. “NPWS invested $2.5 million and worked extremely hard to restore and preserve the historic house and return it to its former glory. “Restoration was completed in 2012 and the House now provides flexible and varied accommodation offerings and can accommodate 38 people across two wings and 20 bedrooms. “NPWS takes a proactive approach to direct the future of nature based tourism and this award acknowledges the incredible team from the Yarrangobilly Caves precinct
and their commitment to providing a unique, relaxing and quality experience for our visitors to enjoy,” Mr Bradford said. Deputy Chief Executive at the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH), Robert Quirk, said the Canberra and Region Tourism Awards are a valuable platform for recognising the success and achievements of staff and their delivery of visitor experiences. “Each year NPWS enters a number of awards programs throughout the country that provide a benchmark for best practice, encourage professionalism and innovation in business planning and service delivery, and highlight the value of the Australian tourism industry,” Mr Quirk said. “I am thrilled that Yarrangobilly Caves House has been awarded in the Unique Accommodation category, particularly when this has been a focus for NPWS in recent times,” Mr Quirk said. Yarrangobilly Caves House is made up of the 1901 single storey section, containing the east and west wings that provide a private self-contained home experience and the 1917 double storey section with 11 rooms and a self-catering hotel-style experience. The House is perfect for conferences, family gatherings and romantic getaways, and more information is available at www. nationalparks.nsw.gov.au

Farmers word on Barilaro NSW Farmers congratulates the new Leader of the NSW Nationals, John Barilaro and his new deputy, Niall Blair after being elected to their positions yesterday. President of NSW Farmers, Derek Schoen said he was hopeful a Baird-Barilaro Government will be a strong voice for farmers and regional New South Wales. “The NSW Government’s long awaited biodiversity reforms are currently before Parliament. “We look forward to working with Deputy Premier Barilaro and Minister Blair as these laws are implemented. “The Nationals have admitted they’ve made mistakes but Mr Barilaro comes to the role with a good understanding of what matters to farmers and country communities. This is a good opportunity for the Nationals to regain the trust of the rural electorate. “Mr Barilaro has taken a proactive approach to improving telecommunications in the bush. We look forward to working with him on this issue, as well as on other pressing issues affecting regional New South Wales including rural crime, biosecurity reform and the need for improved infrastructure,” Mr Schoen said. NSW Farmers would also like to acknowledge Troy Grant for his contribution not only to regional NSW but to the entire state. “Mr Grant has shown a lot of passion for regional New South Wales and we have no doubt that passion will continue. “We thank him for always having his door open to farmers over the past five years,” Mr Schoen concluded.

Snowy Hydro host former Snowy Scheme workers annual briefing
100,000 people came from all over the world to join the construction of the mighty Snowy Mountains Scheme and their commitment not only delivered a wonderfully engineered Scheme but it was a nation changer in terms of culture and achievement. We maintain a strong link to
our history and a key element of this is the Former Snowy Scheme Workers annual briefing which this year was held on 14 November 2016 at the Snowy Hydro Discovery Centre in Cooma. The forum discussed how we are maintaining and upgrading the Snowy Scheme,
using new technology and innovation and evolving to meet the needs of the ever increasingly competitive National Electricity Market. Manager Community Relations, Heath Woolley said “Engaging with the people who built and worked on the amazing Snowy Scheme and
talking to them about how we are continuing to evolve the business based on the strong foundations they put in place is very rewarding.” As per previous briefings, there was a great deal of enthusiasm about the success of the business and retelling of stories from the past.

High school students gain chemical application qualification
As part of the Transition to Work program at Monaro High School, students from Year 9 through to Year 12 participated in a three-day Safe Application of Chemicals course at Cooma TAFE. They were shown how to identify weeds; transport, store, prepare and apply agricultural chemicals to manage both weeds and pests. The course involved students interpreting chemical labels, calculating chemical mix ratios, calibrating booms sprays and sheep
drench guns. The students visited Tony Clarke at Landmark who demonstrated chemical records and the group saw firsthand appropriate storage facilities, spill kits and the range of chemicals available. Guest speaker, Weeds Officer, Brett Jones from Snowy Monaro Regional Council gave the students an introduction into weed identification. While some students found the course challenging, especially the theoretical
and mathematical aspects, they generally enjoyed the three days and valued the experience. For some this was their first taste of TAFE and, and they enjoyed the adult learning environment. The Chemical User course was run exclusively for high school students. This was set up in partnership between Monaro High School and Cooma TAFE and is a result of consultation with parents, students, teachers and the TAFE.
While course fees applied, parents and students alike saw this qualification as necessary for their future work opportunities. Students from Jindabyne Central School also attended.

Having worked with hundreds of thousands of students across Australia, the program came to Cooma through a combined effort from Mission Australia, The Hub Youth Centre and Cooma Ex-Services Club. Led by two young, passionate and energetic presenters, Archie and Ash,
the workshops encouraged students to explore the attitudes, strengths, beliefs and behaviours of themselves and their peers. Through a creative mix of role plays, storytelling, team activities, social experiments, creative writing and group discussion, students put bullying in the spotlight.

Murray Region. By 1961 another house move was needed to the regional headquarters town of Khancoban when Charles took a position with the Finance Division and for a time was accompanying the pay cars delivering the pay to the workers who were out in the middle of nowhere! As the “Snowy” activity began to increase in the Lower Tumut Region in 1964, Charles took his family to Tumut but Charles travelled to work in Talbingo, the regional headquarters town, every day. Thus the Eglitis family moved across three of the four outlying “Snowy” regional areas as the project construction location changed. After fathering the arrival of their first child, a daughter, Charles and Barbara were invited to one of Charles’ long-time Latvian friend’s wedding and so it was at the wedding reception that Charles said this amazing thing to his wife “we are the only Australians here!” In Charles’ mind he regarded himself already as a genuine Australian even though he did not become naturalised until June 25, 1957 in Cooma. That sentiment of wanting to belong to the new country of Australia because of it rule of law and its freedoms does distinguish the Eglitis family in today’s world. Their last location for the Snowy Scheme was for the Tumut 3 Project and Charles ended up being the last in the Finance Division in Talbingo to be given a redundancy. The family consequently moved to Canberra to continue life, the children’s education, and employment. No matter where the migrant people were employed to utilise their training and skills, whether it was managing, planning, design, contracting, or constructing, it permitted them forging an identity with building lasting infrastructure for Australia from which they gained a sense of pride and local identity consciousness. It almost goes without saying that the Australian born work colleagues and the general society in the towns of the Snowy Mountains were constantly enriched by these wonderful migrant colleagues and friends in sharing the challenges of life common to all mankind, thus creating a blended identity in this great land of Australia. The celebratory cake you can see has a coloured picture of Murray 1 Power Station of the Snowy Mountains Scheme with 10 hydro-generators feeding precious Snowy River water into the Murray River where it continues to enable the stability of inland communities along the river’s course. Whilst Jean Main, now Canberra but former resident of Cooma the wife of the late Ian Main head of Chemistry Laboratory of Scientific Services Division, had the idea for the cake as part of the 44th and final Reunion Picnic celebration, it was Denis Woodhams, organiser of the annual Picnic in recent years, now resident in Canberra who worked as a field geologist living in Cooma and the Regional towns of the Scheme with his family, who engaged his local cake shop to send the hydropower station colour photograph to an interstate firm who provides edible icing form to cover the delicious cake.

The “Snowy” Reunion Picnic in Canberra gave a brief opportunity to capture some new amazing stories of migrant people becoming proud Australians. The “gossip queen” for the Adaminaby Snowy Scheme Collection Museum, Hazel McKenzie-Kay, was in her element to enlist contributors to write out their stories. One such story came from the widow of Charles Eglitis from Latvia, whose first compulsory job in 1948 at 20 years of age was cane cutting in Tully in far north Queensland. By 1949 he was well and truly ready for his freedom to choose a more fitting ongoing job in the construction industry and got a position with the “Snowy”. He was signed up with them on December 5, 1949 as a builder’s labourer, a “wages” employee, along with several other Latvian male friends. The following day they were sent to Jindabyne where they lived in tents on the banks of the Snowy River, while they built the first Jindabyne “Snowy” construction camp. Then in 1952 Charles was moved to Island Bend to do a similar construction camp, to be closer to the work begun in Munyang for the first hydropower station works, now known as Guthega Project. All those employed for working on the Snowy Mountains Scheme before the end of 1949 were entitled to be named “an old hand” by the Commissioner, the head of the “Snowy”, William Hudson, a recognition that was celebrated annually with him by those still employed. Charlie Eglitis was regarded as “an old hand”, celebrated every year as he advanced in his employment status. While working on the “Snowy” job in Jindabyne, one evening Charlie went to a dance in Jindabyne and there he met an adventurous young girl, Barbara, on vacation from boarding school whose home was at Waste Point because her father worked for Kosciuszko State Park Trust. The relationship between Charlie and Barbara continued to grow so that they were happily married in 1953. So that Barbara could be near her husband accommodated in the single men’s barracks, she was successful in being given a staff office job in Island Bend entitling her to accommodation in the single women’s quarters. For respectful accountability reasons, the rules of the camp allowed Charles to visit Barbara there but not vice versa to Charlie’s barracks! This state of affairs lasted until they established their own home life away from the camp to make a wonderful and very happy family unit. About this time Charles changed job within the “Snowy” to be driving huge trucks delivering roadbase material as required to build the Alpine Way from Jindabyne to Geehi. By 1958 the family moved into a house in the “Snowy’s” new township of Jindabyne and Charles was then doing a courier mail run, including delivery of individual household grocery orders, from Jindabyne to Geehi every day. This was the beginning of the first work in the

The event is an opportunity for local people to talk to health practitioners of many kinds and for service providers such as DELWP, CFA and Parks Victoria to talk about the things they do. A doctor attends and once a year residents can visit a GP without
waiting for an appointment and travelling for over an hour. One new feature this year was a market, with the Nevens selling their Tubbut honey, Toni selling her chai, Greg selling his garlic and Deb selling some seedlings. The other attraction was a jumping castle for the kids. The evening was capped off with a wonderful meal prepared by the Bonang Hall Committee and that other healthy activity was in full swing as people ate together: social contact.

Coming to Delegate: A FAMulous creative time With the support of East Gippsland Shire’s Arts Alliance, Delegate is in for a good time on Friday November 18. The theatre group, FAM (Frustrated Artistic Mothers), is touring East Gippsland funded by a grant to the East Gippsland Network of Neighbourhood Houses. On this tour FAM will work with and entertain the communities of Delegate and Cann River following a performance at Stratford. T u b b u t Neighbourhood House coordinator and convenor of Borderliners Deb Foskey said, “Theatre in Delegate has had a good run this year starting with a workshop and performance by Camilla Blunden in May.” “Camilla’s workshop has been followed up by regular meetings and rehearsals of Borderliners, keen to
put local stories to air. “FAM comes along as we are ready to strut our stuff. FAM will help us prepare our performance at a workshop during the day and provide entertainment along with FAM at Delegate Country Club’s regular Friday night Family Dinner. “We invite new people to join us for the workshop and we hope a large crowd enjoys a night out at the dinner and show.” FAM’s Jenny Packham said, “FAM Events & Production’s two woman sketch comedy show THE CAFÉ SESSIONS toured from Bright to Bundaberg during July/ August bringing live theatre to everyday places. Now it’s East Gippsland communities’ turn. “Join Pauline and Bill and myself as we share skills in creating original storytelling in a five
minute sketch format. “Participants will share their stories to form the basis of a working script that they will rehearse and perform that evening in FAM’s THE CAFÉ SESSIONS. “Armed with these skills community members will be able to continue to create their stories and share via YouTube with the view to gathering with other communities once a year for an annual festival of sketches. “The one day workshop from 10am till 6pm will cover: Storytelling – the best performances are based in truth • What story do you want tell? • Where to begin • The characters • Performance anxiety – nerves and how to use them to your advantage “Don’t panic and think everyone who participates has to
act, because this is a collaboration of skills. Performance needs actors but it also needs ideas, writers, props and stage hands. “It is a team effort that creates the magic of live performance. “So come along, get involved, bring your sense of humour and we’ll have a FAMulous creative time in your community,” said Jenny Packham. If you are interesting in participating, contact the Tubbut Neighbourhood House on 6458 0295. The workshop will be held at the Delegate Country Club from 10am to 6pm and participants must bring their own lunch. If you are unable to make the workshop, come along to the show. Tickets cost $20 and include a two course meal served at 6pm, with the show starting at 7.30pm. To book your dinner, call 6458 8169.

Bombala Public School Year 6 visits Canberra
Last Wednesday, Bombala Public School’s Year 5 students went to Canberra as part of their unit of work on government. At 10:30am they attended the Australian Electoral Commission at Old Parliament House where they got to experience an election using a mock ‘real-life’ polling booth. A quick bite to eat for lunch on the beautiful lawn out the front of Parliament House was followed by a guided tour at 1:00pm of Parliament House. This guided tour answered a lot of questions the students had at the start of the week like Did you know? • there are 4500 rooms inside Parliament House,
• there are more than 2700 clocks, • 5000 people work in the building when Parliament meets, • it is the largest building in the southern hemisphere, • it is designed to still be standing in 200 years • and certain sections of the floor throughout the building are actually a very ancient seabed from Belgium, laden with fossils. The school would like to give a warm thank you to Teresa Bullock for her assistance throughout the day and a very special thank you to Malcolm Lavender for driving the bus and for his assistance and guidance throughout the day.

POST man
C A L L Postman S What’s that they say about a week in politics being a long time? For the NSW Nats, it must seem like a lifetime. With a huge swing against the party at the Orange by-election, the Monaro has gained a very high-profile member in John Barilaro. As the Nats leader and with deputy Niall Blair, The Postman is rather hopeful the premiers plan to wipe out Snowy brumbies will be overcome. Mr Barilaro has publicly stated his support for the brumbies and Mr Blair is a horseman, so one would hope that might add some balance to the brumby issue. Or there could be another charge like at Beersheba, sabres drawn! Speaking of weapons, that was a pretty hefty mallet Bronnie Taylor was swinging at the MCCR garden party on Saturday. A newcomer to croquet, Bronnie was through the first pegs like a veteran. The Postman wonders if Mrs Taylor might also get to swing a similar mallet in the NSW Upper House? Congratulations to the MCCR committee for yet another successful fundraiser with their biennial garden party. The venue, Springwell, was a perfect choice for such an event. Congrats also to the artists responsible for the Reflections on the MacLaughlin exhibition at the Raglan Gallery on Saturday – some beautiful work on show. Likewise, the beautiful chuffing and putputting exhibits on show at Bombala’s engine exhibition. What a fascinating collection..
Remembering the first surf to summit Editor, The first Surf to Summit car rally was organised and run by the Cooma Based Monaro Branch of the Antique and Classic Motor Club of Sydney in February 1980. Starting from Spencer Park in Merimbula, with the sea in the background, the first vehicles were flagged away by the Premier of NSW Neville Wran QC.
Participants were entertained and stayed overnight in Cooma, continued on to Charlotte Pass the next day, before concluding the event at Smiggin Holes. Participants came from as far as Melbourne and Brisbane. Each entrant was presented with a seashell mounted on a piece of mountain granite as a memento.
It was wonderful to see the event rerun and well organised by the Cooma Car Club, it is great publicity for the region and a boost to the tourist trade, To all those who worked so diligently to make it a success, take a bow. Well done. Frank Rodwell, Cooma

kind of empty for a while until I get used to not having him around. It’s funny how an animal can do that, especially when the animal is a big fluffy sweet-natured puss like this one! I don’t think he has any idea how to scratch or bite because all he seems to know is how to be your best friend and companion and put up with all the hugging and kissing and things. He was just the best company I could have asked for in a cat. No wonder his owners love him to bits and are looking forward to him returning home, and when he gets there they will be able to tell that he had a lovely time here with plenty of food and grooming and no stress whatsoever. But then, he took to me and this house and garden like a duck to water which was pretty amazing really because I fully expected him to have at least a couple of days hiding under the bed or something until he felt more confident about the strange house and the strange woman cooing at him. Anyway, he will no doubt be just as pleased to see his owners as they will be to see him so it’s all good when you look at like that. That’s how I’m looking at it because look, that’s the way it is. I minded him for six weeks, took wonderful care of him and now he’s back safe and sound in his own home. But I’m really going to miss having him around here (sigh).
By the time you are reading this today, I will be at a bit of a loose end because Desk/Dawn Buddy will have left to go home as his Mummy and Daddy have returned from overseas and are anxious to have their big, fluffy boy home again. After six weeks of his lovely company, things are going to feel a bit odd around here because I have become used to having him around. Used to picking him up for big squashy cuddles while he purred loudly in my ear. Used to typing blind because even when crouched down he still obscured most of the screen anyway and of course, waking up very early to large paws walking heavily up and down my body. Even waking in the night pinned to the bed by his weight. Seriously, he is a big cat! And I wish he wasn’t going home. During his sojourn here he has had a wonderful time chasing the lizards, befriending the chooks and trying his damnedest to paw his way through the thick glass of the lounge room windows to get to the big lunar moths fluttering so temptingly on the other side. He loved chasing a tennis ball through the house and staking his claim on the empty box in my office. Then he’d curl up on me for a catnap. My legs would go numb after a little while because of his weight but hey, I was not going to disturb him! But he is on his way home as you’re reading this and the house will feel

NEWS Upper Snowy Landcare - Tree Dieback Project receives Monaro Service ‘Special’ Award and more funding as two more spring tree plots are planted 18
Wednesday November 16, 2016
Upper Snowy Landcare (USL) have been acknowledged by receiving the ‘Monaro Service Award ’ for service to the environment in revegetating areas across the Monaro devastated by tree dieback. The award was presented by John Barilaro MP Member of Monaro and Bronnie Taylor, MLC in a wellattended ceremony in Cooma. Shane Trengove (new USL Chair after the hardworking Robin Sevenoaks retired from this role) accepted the award on behalf of the group. Mr Trengove was delighted and stated, “This is truly fabulous recognition for the tireless work USL have been putting into the dieback issue over many years. It also shows that tree dieback is very important to both the government and landholders, not to mention the animal species that once relied on the habitat. We need to redress the loss on many levels”. This is not the only good news for this community group lately - the Snowy Monaro Regional Council under its new Community Grants Round 1 provided funding to the USL for another two plots to be established on Travelling Stock Reserves in the region and a field day to showcase the sites; following representations from Member for Monaro, Mr John Barilaro, the NSW Minister for the Environment under the Minister’s Conservation Fund provided funding for the production of a free tree planting guide for landholders to
showcase best practice tree planting. Furthermore, a recent partnership with Greening Australia under the Bush Connect Project has seen two further Spring plots planted out in the area between Cooma and Berridale, bringing the total so far up to six revegetation plots, each more than 1 ha in size. Combined, this means more than 6000 trees and shrubs have been put in the ground this year with another six plots flagged under the Bush Connect collaboration with Greening Australia in the next two years. For those interested in learning more about tree dieback on the Monaro please attend the K2C Forum, Tackling Dieback and Woodland Restoration on 18 November 2016 at Riverside Oval Clubhouse, Carinya St, Queanbeyan. Start time: 9:00 am. Program available on http://k2c.org.au/node/2499. Please rsvp to Rainer Rehwinkel, by 11 November 2016 on rainer.rehwinkel@ hotmail.com Presenters include: Cris Brack (ANU), Jacqui Stol (CSIRO), Nicki Taws (Greening Australia) - Monaro Tree Comeback NSW Environmental Trust, Lauren Van Dyke (Upper Snowy Landcare, Dieback Project Manager), Sue McIntyre (CSIRO), Mike Thompson (NSW NPA), Susannah Power (OEH), John Briggs (OEH), Johannes Botha (ACT Government), Chris Allen (OEH)

The Cooma Men’s Business Group first met in August this year and there was a consensus that some activities centred on food and budgeting would be helpful. Debbie Sewell offered the “Cooking for Me and You Program” through Meals on Wheels. The program was run over three weeks. The great feature of this program is that all the men participate at every stage of preparation, cooking and feasting on the dishes they prepare. The theme was continued with a Men’s Business Group trip to Fyshwick Markets and a BBQ on the Kingston Foreshore. It has been a winner with the participants.

Legacy annual luncheon
SIR WILLIAM HUDSON
MEMORIAL CENTRE AGED CARE FACILITY
Our residents were recently invited to visit Cooma North Public School for Grandparents Day. The trip was especially exciting for Meg as her daughter Anne is the Librarian and Assistant Principal at the school. The residents listened to the school participating in’ Music Count Us In” which had 600,000 students from more than 2500 schools around Australia singing a specially composed song on the same day, at the same time. Parents, grandparents and residents of SWH and Yallambee were invited to witness the massed singing and enjoyed morning tea afterwards. The students made our residents feel very welcome and very important. One student was so impressed with the green nail polish one lady was wearing that she asked if she could book a room when she is older to make sure she could have her nails painted that colour. Manicures and pedicures are one of the activities that Jess arranges for our residents to enjoy. We all love a foot soak followed by a long foot massage to smooth away the day’s troubles. Our activities team are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure the day is full of fun and laughter. SWHMC AGM will be held Thursday November 24th at 7.30pm. Note the date on your calendar and please take the time to attend this meeting and be involved in your community owned care facility. You do not have to be a relative of a resident to attend the meeting, all community members are welcome. Gaylene Jennings and Beth Gardiner are regular volunteers at our facility. The girls visit us and entertain our residents every fortnight with their wonderful singing and guitar playing. Their smiling faces are always welcomed and the music they play certainly puts a smile on the faces of everyone else in the activities room. Thank you for the time that you give to SWHMC, we truly appreciate it! Do you have a skill that you could share at SWHMC? If you would like to become a volunteer either on a regular basis or as a one off please contact Tabitha at reception and she can direct you to the correct person. We love our volunteers, and our residents love them for the diversity that they bring to our centre. Our next residents meeting will be held November 24th at 2pm, if you have a family member or friend who is a resident at SWHMC you are more than welcome to attend these monthly meetings. During October we welcomed 4 new residents to our care facility

Some rare pieces at Bombala’s biennial tractor and engine show Organisers of the Bombala Historic Engine and Machinery Society’s (BHEMS) 10th Biennial Rally have deemed the event the ‘biggest one’ yet. Thousands turned out for the three-day rally with this year’s event showcasing the grandest display of historic engines in BHEMS 21-year history. The nationally renowned engine and machinery rally attracted entries from across the country. Many historically revered parts were brought to the Bombala Railway precinct from Friday, November 11 to Sunday, November 13. With almost 1500 people passing through the gates across the three days, BHEMS president, Barry Crouch, was one pleased administrator.
“It’s the biggest engine rally BHEMS has ever had. The rally blew us out of the water,” Mr Crouch said. “I’m a very happy president. We displayed roughly 50 more units than in 2014. One person brought an engine from Brisbane, there was another from Melbourne and all over NSW.” Highlights of the rally included the display of a steam tractor from Hayfield in Victoria, and earth moving equipment used on the Snowy Scheme Museum. “The steam tractor was always going to be a drawcard as there’s not many of them left,” Mr Crouch said. One of the rally’s most popular displays according to Mr Crouch was BHEMS recently acquired Crossley Oil Engine.
This piece of machinery serves an important link with the community, as it is the original engine that helped provide the Bombala township with electricity in the late 1920s. “We were lucky enough to purchase the Crossley Oil Engine and restore it. It was an attraction with lots of people coming to see it. “ In attendance at the 10th Biennial Rally was the committee of the National Historic Machinery Association. The committee, comprising representatives from all Australian states, chose to hold their three-monthly meeting at the Bombala event. “It was quite a thrill to host them and it’s a big boost to our club.”

A charming Hillside Cottage escape in the heart of Bombala Bombala sisters, Rachel Giles and Penny Campbell have embarked on an exciting venture, offering their charming childhood home as boutique accommodation in the heart of the town. Hillside Cottage has been in the girls’ family for 44 years, with their parents buying the run down 1800s home in the early 1970s, and spending many years renovating what would become their pride and joy.
“Now that the house has been passed to us, we wanted to keep that legacy going and hang onto it, but we also wanted to do something with it, and after a lot of deliberation we decided we could offer it as a really beautiful Bed and Breakfast,� Rachel said. With Penny being involved in the local Chamber of Commerce, she realised there was not enough accommodation available in Bombala, and that a lovely property like Hillside Cottage would be the perfect option for many visitors. “We weren’t ready to part with the house, so if we could find something like this that would allow us to showcase it and meet new people, as well as giving visitors the chance to experience the area, then that’s perfect,� Penny said. Hillside Cottage boasts three spacious themed guest rooms - Rustic, Vintage and Classic - and at this stage can sleep up to nine people with the use of a sofa bed and day bed in the
spacious living area. It also features a Victorian bathroom complete with claw foot bath, a brand new kitchen with all modern facilities and truly beautiful garden surrounds. The girls are all about adding those extra little touches that can make a stay in Bombala so special. “We’ll be providing welcome packages, specialty items in the bathroom and a complimentary continental breakfast, all of which will showcase quality products sourced in the local area,� Penny said. Rachel adds that the wood fire will be roaring ready to greet guests who may come in the cooler months, while basic supplies such as fresh bread and milk will also be provided ready for guests to walk in and relax. Those who wish to explore the area will find a series of brochures on the region’s attractions, both in the immediate area as well as throughout the wider region encompassing the mountains and the coast. Maps and other information on local businesses and services will also be available in the cottage, and the girls intend to work in with local events and happenings to offer their guests the best the area has to offer.
Sisters, Rachel Giles and Penny Campbell are offering their charming childhood home, Hillside Cottage as boutique accommodation in the heart of Bombala. “We can even arrange things like farm stays for those from the city, and are happy to accommodate all kinds of events and getaways like high teas, different themed retreats and girly weekends,� Penny said. With a professional and trusted approach being paramount, the sisters have decided to run their new Hillside Cottage venture through Airbnb, with all bookings taken care of directly through this reputable company. “We’ve stayed at number of other Airbnb properties ourselves and they are all of a very high standard and they have lots of little points of
difference and charm,� Rachel said. “The company was just perfect for us.� Already Hillside Cottage has had an extremely positive response, with bookings for weddings, the local Bike Show, Christmas and a vow renewal already flowing in. “We’re really excited to be getting off to such a positive start with bookings, and our Facebook page has been popular since it launched too, so we’d just like everyone to check Hillside Cottage out and spread the word,� Penny said.

GRASSROOTS 24 Bring on Biodiversity Reform MLA to install objective measurement Wednesday November 16, 2016
Following a 20 year campaign for effective land management laws, NSW Farmers is pleased to see the state government taking action. The Local Land Services Amendment Bill 2016 and the Biodiversity Conservation Bill 2016, tabled in parliament today, provide the framework for improved farm productivity & environmental outcomes in New South Wales. President of NSW Farmers, Derek Schoen said current laws have not only failed farmers and the productivity of many farms, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve failed the environment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Native Vegetation Act, now set to be repealed, has seen biodiversity go backwards in NSW because of its lock up-and-leave approach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Noxious weeds have become uncontrollable in parts of regional NSW, to the detriment of our native flora and fauna. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Feral pests like wild pigs, cats and foxes have thrived while native tree species and wildlife have suffered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Native Vegetation Act has also stifled farmers at a time when remaining competitive on a global scale is necessary for the long term sustainability of the agricultural sector.â&#x20AC;? NSW Farmers is also pleased about the increased funding into land conservation. Farmers will be
encouraged to plant more trees and preserve more habitat as part of a $240 million dollar private land conservation program, and a $100 million dollar saving species program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without biodiversity, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have farms. We want people to remember that 95% of farms in Australia are family businesses. Farmers want to hand on their farms in better condition to the next generation and the only way we can do that is by being environmental stewards,â&#x20AC;? Mr Schoen said. NSW Farmers recognises this is a complex area of law spanning across the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s environment, primary industries and planning portfolios but a balanced, scientific and progressive approach to land management is necessary to nurture the environment and farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; livelihoods into the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important we get the settings right so that environmental, social and economic impacts are balanced and regional communities where these farms operate can thrive. It is imperative the new system leaves the mistakes of the past behind, that means, properly resourced advisory services, incorporating flexibility into the Codes of Practice, and allowing Local Land Services to apply common sense, â&#x20AC;? Mr Schoen concluded.

across industry Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA) has announced a revolutionary plan to install objective carcase measurement (OCM) technology across the red meat industry. As a first step, MLA will create a platform to install stage one of the new OCM technology into all AUS-MEAT registered slaughter facilities in Australia. The initiative paves the way for scientific measurement of saleable meat yield, future value based marketing and industrywide productivity gains through processing automation, genetic improvement and data-based on-farm decision making. Longer term, the plan is also expected to reduce the industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual multimillion cost of grading. Making the announcement today at MLAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Annual General Meeting in Hahndorf, South Australia, Managing Director Richard Norton said that universal adoption of the technology was the only way to capture the potential of the data it generates to benefit all of industry. To do so, MLA would acquire a commercial loan on behalf of industry to finance the $150 million one-off cost of installing Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) technology in up to 90 AUS-MEAT registered slaughter facilities, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The most important product of objective carcase measurement is the data it will generate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and MLAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan ensures that data will be available to all participants across the value chain,â&#x20AC;? Mr Norton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re now at a stage where our smallstock DEXA technology is ready for commercial deployment, while for beef our DEXA research and development is nearing completion and ready for commercial installation trials in early 2017.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once the first stage of objective carcase measurement is installed, both systems will provide valuable information for the value chain including saleable meat yield, bone and fat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The systems will become more and more valuable as ongoing research and development enhances the application of objective carcase measurement around all conceivable measures.â&#x20AC;? Mr Norton said the Australian Competition and Consumer Commissionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (ACCC) interim report on its cattle and beef market study supported Cattle Council of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s focus on how the competitiveness of Australian beef and cattle markets could be improved by the adoption of objective carcase measurement. The universal adoption of the technology would also contribute to maintaining the Australian red meat industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to compete in global markets, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Australia is a high cost producer compared to some of our international competitors, so we need to constantly innovate and invest in productivity and efficiency improvements from the farm right through to the processor and ultimately to market,â&#x20AC;? Mr Norton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;MLAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan will drive a shift from the current subjective grading of lamb and beef to a new system of livestock production and marketing where producers can be transparently rewarded against objective data and value measurements. â&#x20AC;&#x153;On farm, that will stimulate further advances in genetics and livestock production systems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Within the processing plant, the technology will reduce wastage and workforce injuries and boost productivity through the use of accurate, objective
measurement and automation.â&#x20AC;? Mr Norton said that in developing its plan, MLA had listened carefully to calls from the industry for more transparency in the process of grading carcases at abattoirs and, more recently, had noted the ACCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remarks around the integrity of the grading process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Under our plan, AUS-MEAT will be the whole-of-value-chain independent regulator. AUS-MEAT will calibrate the system, conduct the audits and will also provide a complaints resolution process,â&#x20AC;? Mr Norton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ensuring that the data generated from objective carcase measurement is accessible and easy for producers to use will further enhance the integrity of the grading system and also form the basis of MLAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s digital strategy.â&#x20AC;? Mr Norton said MLA had sought and received in-principal support from the Deputy Prime Minister and Federal Minister for Agriculture, Barnaby Joyce, for the introduction of objective measurement across industry, and would continue to consult with the industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peak councils about how to best structure the one-off cost of its introduction. He likened the universal introduction of objective carcase measurement to other visionary initiatives such as the Meat Standards Australia (MSA) eating quality system and the industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s food safety and traceability systems, both of which continue to return hundreds of millions of dollars to producers, decades after their implementation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Through collaboration and collective investment, this plan will generate value across the red meat industry today, tomorrow and through to beyond 2020,â&#x20AC;? Mr Norton said.

House fire simulation training for local Country Fire Authority
The nozzle is adjusted to make 80% water, 20% fog.
Back door entry to the fire.
A metal version of the average living room. On Sunday November 6, a training day was held for the Mt Delegate Country Fire Authority group. The purpose of the training day was to make use of a a domestic prop that was delivered to Bendoc Country Fire Authority (CFA) shed on October 17. The prop is to stay at the shed until November 14 at the cost of $10,000 and so far it has been well utilised in two training sessions.
The prop is able to simulate house/ structure fires and thus provides â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;liveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fire training. To withstand fire and water inundation, the furniture is metal and emits none of the toxic gases which will emerge from a real life fire and a grid roof enables the escape of gas and steam. The training session was attended by 27 volunteer firefighters from NSWâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rural Fire

The trainers who made the drive from Orbost were so impressed by the turn-up and enthusiasm that they promised to return to assist with further training events. Thanks to Group Captain Andy Bennett for organising the prop and to the Bendoc CFA
for providing the venue and lunch. It was a great social event enabling networking and information sharing across the border. The next prop that may make its way up the Bonang Road simulates a car fire and will provide another opportunity for volunteer firefighters to learn skills in practice rather than theory alone.

Introducing the independent builders network to the Snowy Monaro
Salvestro Developments is delighted to bring the Independent Builders Network (IBN) to the Snowy Monaro region. ‘We’re very happy to be able to bring this collection of quality homes to the region says builder, Ricky Salverstro. ‘It has been something we have sought out in response to request from clients. People started asking me if I had any plans that I could offer them as part of the building process and initially I didn’t think much of it but the question kept coming time and time again so I went out in search of a solution.’ Ricky explored a number of options before discovering IBN. ‘From the beginning I have been impressed with the quality of the homes and finishes. I also felt that with 80 different plans and 60 facades that there would be homes that would suit pretty much everyone. Building a home is a huge decision and commitment and I know that people are always nervous the plans being right, costs blowing out and the quality of the end product and the IBN solution takes care of all of this’, says Ricky. The process is very easy, people can arrange a time to talk to Ricky about what they want in their new home and he will bring up the floor plans and facades online. When you’ve decided which one you’re interested in, he can give you a comprehensive quote on the spot. Through IBN, Salvestro Developments is now able to offer ZERO deposit house and land packages. People apply directly through IBN and work with one of the IBN financial planners and when the finance is approved they work with Salvestro Developments to secure a block of land and build their new home. Salvestro Developments has more than 25 years of experience and is still available for commercial work, renovations, new homes, vinyl cladding and asbestos removal as well as the new IBN homes. Call Ricky today on 0404 094 161 to talk about your building project or visit our website www.salvestrodevelopments.com.au

On Wednesday November 9, Year 1/2 Bombala Public School participated in a Healthy Halloween Day. It was a little late this year as Mrs Moreing was unfortunately absent from school on the actual date of Halloween. The children had the opportunity to prepare and eat a wide variety of foods from the healthier end of the spectrum as well as dress-up. This day was designed to encourage the children to think about what they eat and the effect food has on their bodies. Its purpose was two-fold, first and foremost was to have fun but secondly and equally importantly for the children to cover the Health component of PDHPE. The children discovered that even a celebration that traditionally has been associated with lots of sweet foods can be just as much fun without those types of foods. Some of the food prepared included: Witches Brew, Jasper the Vege Skeleton (rising again from the grave by popular demand), bread ghosts, mandarin pumpkins, spring roll bones, dried fruit eyeballs, devilled eggs, frankfurt octopuses and more. Special thanks must go to Abby Ingram for her help in the morning with preparation. We all had a magnificent luncheon feast with many children discovering that they really do like lots of “green” (celery and lettuce) stuff and other healthy food after all.

Presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s message Adaminaby Jockey Club president, Lynley Miners, is looking forward to another very successful race day on November 19. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the best things about our races is the number of people who attend and use the occasion as a focus for a reunion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The number of people who used the day to connect with the community made it really special. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without that tremendous support, we would not have won the community race club of the year awards that we have picked up in recent years. I thank everyone for making that possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year, Adaminaby Racecourse is turning pink, in support of the McGrath Foundation and breast cancer research and care. This organisation does some vital work in assisting breast cancer sufferers and I am happy we will be able to assist this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d also like to thank our sponsors who have again come on board this year to make the race meeting possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without the support of these generous people, country racing would not continue. So thank you all so much. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A big thanks too, to all our volunteers who make the day run smoothly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year we will have once again have members of the Riverina Racing Supporters Club attending from Wagga â&#x20AC;&#x201C; these supporters choose which meeting they want to support each and this year a bus and several carloads of them will be at Adaminaby. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll make sure they have a good time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I encourage all racegoers to have a bit of fun and get into the spirit of the occasion and come dressed to the nines in PINK. I also encourage everyone to enter the Fashions on the Field competition this year. There are some great prizes to be won and it is a good opportunity for everyone to dress up for a great day out. See you all there.â&#x20AC;?
Message from Glenn McGrath Year on year I continue to be blown away by the depths of the relationships we at the McGrath Foundation are building countrywide. Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our nurses, corporate partners, Government, community fundraisers or volunteers I never could have imagined back in 2005 that the Foundation would make such a significant difference to so many peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m amazed at each nurse and patient story that I hear. Our nurses are at the centre of what we do and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m so grateful for the dedication and care they bring to their roles every day to make life for families experiencing breast cancer that little bit easier. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if I can ever adequately express my sincere gratitude for what they do. Recognising the Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tenth
anniversary was a humbling milestone. We lit the sails of the Sydney Opera House bright pink not only to mark our anniversary, but also as a show of one of our key values here at the Foundation: to have fun in the midst of addressing a very serious issue. An important aspect of what we do at the Foundation is build strong relationships. As only one example, January marked an astounding eight-year friendship with Cricket Australia. And, when the Pink Test was rained out, Cricket Australia generously allowed us to take part in an international T20 match, bringing to life the first ever Pink T20, sharing our vision with a new audience and helping to generate donations. What an important gesture that directly resulted in us being able to support families across Australia.
The support of cricket lovers and donors was marked by another successful Pink Stumps Day. This grassroots campaign has grown with each passing year and now sees hundreds of communities host their own day of fun and cricket. This year Pink Stumps Day travelled further than ever, with the Cocos Islands hosting our most remote match to date. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be remiss if I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take the opportunity to acknowledge our volunteers and community fundraisers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; they work tirelessly to host pink events and coordinate activities to support the Foundation. The creativity and dedication of individuals continues to astound me. To you all I say a big thank you. Together we can make a difference. Glenn McGrath AM President and Co-Founder

Tickled pink for Adaminaby Races
The Adaminaby Jockey Club is rich in history with the Racecourse having only been in its current position for the last 52 years. The Adaminaby township was moved due to the construction of the Snowy Scheme and the creation of the Lake Eucumbene, and with it, the old Racecourse buildings were transported to their current location. The committee and local volunteers are proud of their efforts, busily refreshing buildings, stables and grounds each year in preparation of this event. This is one of the biggest annual events held in the Snowy Mountains. This year Adaminaby is celebrating 152 years of horse racing. It is shaping up to be a wonderful day with such events as The Calcutta on the Friday night, music, food and
bar facilities and many other attractions on the day. Race Day has been run as a theme day for the past 16 years with great participation and fun from the race goers. This year will be Pink, in support of the McGrath Foundation. T h e Adaminaby Cup has been proudly sponsored by local entities for decades, such sponsors are the Snowgoose Hotel, Bolaro Station (also hosting the Bolaro Cup). One of our other major events is Fashions on the Field. Clever entrants may be able to combine the fun theme with

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Racing Matesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; initiative to be launched Racing NSWâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brand new initiative â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Racing Matesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; was launched at Rosehill Gardens on 27 August 2016. Racing Mates utilises peer support empowering mates to look out for mates and offers access to Psychologists, Counsellors and Assistance Hotlines free of any charges. The website is already live and contains pages such as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Initiatives and Programsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; where information on drugs and support can be found. Racing NSW has, for some time, recognised the growing drug problem in the greater community and as such, has constantly created initiatives to tackle related issues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Racing New South Wales takes very seriously its responsibilities for the administration of a sport without the use, promotion or exaltation of illegal drugs,â&#x20AC;?
said Mr Peter Vâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;landys AM, Racing NSWâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chief Executive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Looking after the mental health of our participants in NSW has been an area we have concentrated on over the past few years and Racing Mates is a further tool we will be using. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hold forums throughout NSW highlighting to our participants the dire consequences that drugs have on persons, their families and the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have engaged horse trainer Pat Webster (accredited Drug and Alcohol Counsellor who works voluntarily in a Drug Rehabilitation Centre) to conduct weekly visits throughout NSW to engage with industry participants to combat growing drug problems.â&#x20AC;? These forums concentrate on the distractions and temptations concerning drugs, alcohol, gambling and lifestyle
choices, with participant attendance from pre-apprentices and apprentice jockeys, jockeys and other industry participants. In 2014 Racing NSW established an Investigation & Surveillance Unit that works in conjunction with Racing NSW Stewards to assist in maintaining the integrity of thoroughbred racing in the state. One of the key areas that this unit seeks to investigate is the use and abuse of drugs and banned substances. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe there is any other organisation that has programs in place to tackle matters associated with the use of illegal substances like Racing NSW,â&#x20AC;? Mr Vâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;landys added. For further information please contact Mr Maurice Logue by phone on (02) 9551 7525.

Tricky wind tests sailors on Lake Jindabyne Story by Tim Symons
Lake Jindabyne Sailing Club held heat two of the 2016/17 Twilight series on the evening of November 9. Nick Kennedy and new member, Felix Hearn, manned the rescue boat. New member, Russ Alsop assisted John Byrne on the start boat. They sent the six catamarans off on a starboard rounding course into a light SW breeze. Barney and Thomas Davis made their usual good start and led the fleet to the Bay mark. The small fleet of cats bunched up at the mark, then set of on a long and slow square run to the
Mountain mark. Adam Robinson and Rod Baillie gybed their Hobie 16 early and separated from the pack. Tim Symons soon followed on his Hobie 17. This proved to be a decisive move as both boats were well positioned to take advantage of a huge wind shift to the NE. Adam and Rod reached the Mountain mark first, followed closely by Tim. They stalled their boat while taking around the mark and Tim ran into their stern while rounding the mark. Barney rounded the mark next and set off after Tim who completed a penalty turn, surrendering the lead. Tim and Barney carefully avoided the

windless patch behind the island while the other cats sailed in too close and paid the price. Tim led Barney around the Quarry mark and onto the sausage legs of the course. John shortened the course after two laps. Tim crossed the finish line first, followed by Barney and Thomas, Adam and Rod and Barry Dennis. Alistair and Lucy Cross finished next, one second ahead of Andrew and Jake Kennedy. On handicap corrected times, Tim kept the win by 14 seconds from Barney, followed by Adam, Alistair, Andrew and Barry. The seven monohulls started after the cats. They dealt with the same wind shift as they approached the Peninsular mark. John Baird slipped to the front of the fleet and led them around the Quarry mark. Kerry McGaw joined the cats in the windless lee of Lion Island. Nick Luntungan and Karen Green sailed around in their Flying Fifteen for the first time this season while taking advantage of Nick Kennedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expert advice from the rescue boat. John Baird led the fleet around the Quarry mark for the last time, but failed to see the shortened race flag on the start boat. He missed the finish line and retired from the race. So, Jason Abbott and his new full sized radial sail Laser crossed the finish line first, followed by Martin Van Weel, Terry and Lucas Lee, Ross Lawley, Kerry McGaw and Peter Baker. The handicap corrected times gave Martin his first win of the season followed by Jason, Kerry Ross, Terry and Lucas and Peter. Another windy Saturday afternoon surprised the sailors who rigged three catamarans and six mono-hulls to compete in heat two of the 2016/17 Point-score series on November 12. John Byrne was joined by Peter Baker, Karen Green and Sarah on the start/rescue boat. John sent the mixed fleet off into the strong SW breeze which was gusting to 35 knots. Most of the boats started at the boat bend on port tack with a few at the buoy on starboard tack which created some interesting crossings. The cats made their way through the fleet on
the reaching leg to the Peninsular mark. Tim Symons and Barney Davis with temporary crew Tom rounded the mark together. Tim then slipped to the front of the fleet and led the fleet around the course. All of the sailors struggled with the sudden gusts and several sailors had to
recover from unexpected capsizes. After a full five lap course, Tim led the fleet to the finish line when the wind increased so much that the rest of the boats struggled to finish. Adam Robinson and temporary crew, Martin Bannister, finished next, followed by Nick
the race in the tough conditions. Nick took the yardstick corrected time win from Tim and Adam. Everyone had great stories to tell about fast rides zooming around the lake after a great race in extremely windy conditions.

First title decided in new bowling association The Paddle Pop Sticks produced mixed margins in the final round of the Bill Elder Shield for 2016 played last Wednesday, with as little as one shot being the smallest margin and seven shots the largest. In all, 20 players took to the green for the final day. Ken Rees, Peter Harris and Leonie Snell had a tight battle with Mary Phillips, Max Reeve and Renate Winckel for the first 10 ends then scored four shots on 11 which put them on the road for a 22/15 victory. Allan Crowe, Max Butler and Bob Lahy spent seven ends on three against Bob
Douglass, Judy Locker and Ron Wainwright but managed to keep the latter on nine for eight ends. The final score 18/14 in favour of Allan, Max and Bob. Evelyn Hamilton and Jack Sajina had a friendly game against Mario Frezza and Mike Mannile for the first five ends when Mario and Mike took off and scored 10 shots over four ends to lead 14/8 on 11. Evelyn and Jack outscored their opposition in the run home but went down 17/20. Mary Obermaier and Paul Cannell won five of the first nine ends against Mary Murphy
and Geoff Venables to be eight all. From that point to the end of the game both sides could have run away with the game but it was 15/15 with one end to play. Mary and Geoff had to produce some great bowls to get the necessary one shot to win. As a result of the day’s play the following names will go on the Shield for this year. Geoff Venables 18 + 62. (win Margin) Max Butler 17 + 55. Peter Harris 15 +28 ½ . The only others to reach double figures were Allan Crowe 12 +25, Leonie Snell 11+29 and Mary Phillips 11+12. In
all 40 players took part over the six months. The Snowy Mountains Bowling Association Mixed Pairs was completed on Saturday. In the morning semi-final Mary Murphy and Paul Cannell had an early 9/3 lead over Del and David Turner then dropped six shots to Del and David. Mary and Paul then skipped away to lead 14/9 on end 12. On end 17, Mary and Paul held a narrow 15/14 lead but scored four shots on 18 followed by two on 19 only to again drop six shots on 20 and lead by only one shot going in to the last end, on which they gained the
necessary one shot to win 22/20 and put them into the afternoon final, against Ron Wainwright and Leonie Snell. Both teams made a somewhat shaky start in the final with four shots on end two to Ron and Leonie and five to Mary and Paul on four before settling down to the game and have the scores even 12/12 on 12. Ron and Leonie were in front 20/15 on 19 but dropped four shots on 20 to lead 20/19 going into the last end. This proved the dramatic end with both teams holding shot at some stage but eventually it was Ron and Leonie who ran
out winners 21/19 and claimed the first title of the Snowy Mountains Bowling Association. Social bowls for Saturday was limited to 12 players. Max Butler, Peter Marsicano and visitor Denis Rumble came up against an in form Mike Mannile, Mario Frezza and Geoff Venables and soon found themselves trailing 9/14 on 11. Four shots to Max, Peter and Denis on 18 made the score appear a little better, although Geoff’s team went on to win 25/18. Ken Rees, Renate Winckel and Mark Buckley held a two shot lead over Sergio Roncelli, Daphne Buckley and Colin Roberson on end 12 but gradually drew away to lead 15/6 and finally run out winners 18/13. Entries for Cooma Club’s Major Pairs will close on Sunday November 20 and the Major Singles on Sunday November 27. It is proposed to have these two events finalised before Pennants commence on January
29. Consequently, entrants will need to be prepared to play on both Saturday and Sunday during December and January and possibly morning and afternoon. With three bowls organisations involved in local Bowls (Cooma Club, Snowy Mountains Bowling Association and Far South Coast) it is going to be difficult to avoid clashes and allow as many Bowlers as possible to play in their chosen events. With a bus load of players at Bombala for the Annual Patrons Cup there was no social bowls on Sunday. Those taking part in the Patrons Cup enjoyed the game, but not necessarily the result. Bombala won convincingly 6 rinks 174 shots to 1 rink 117 shots However the result in Super 6’s gave Cooma revenge in defeating Bombala 15 points to nil.

Cooma’s Little Athletes are on the move In contention to be selected as part of the ACT Little A’s Team for the Australian Little A’s Championships in April next year, U/13 athlete Reuben is not letting the grass grow too long under his feet this season. Reuben is at the top of the improvers’ ladder with eight recorded so far. His times have steadily come down in the 100m and 200m. In just three runs he has lowered his 100m time from 14.89sec to 14.05sec and is likely to break through into the 13-second mark before Christmas. His 200m times dropped from 31.67sec down to 29.81sec. U/7 Ethan Adams heads the SubBantum Brigade (U/6-U/8) with seven improvements, which he mainly achieved
in the long jump and sling ball. Ethan has added 25cm onto his first trial long jump of 2.35m and now is leaping 2.60m. His sling ball has improved out of sight, now throwing 22.56m. There are three new girls, U/7 Mary Locker-Lloyd, U/11 Heidi Siebuhr and U/12 Jordana Breden, all with six improvements and one new boy, Stephen (Smiley) Davis, also on six. Mary Locker-Lloyd has taken more than a full second off her 50m, clocking 11.70sec. Her first trial long jump was 1.16m, but she is now climbing toward the 2m-mark at 1.73m. Heidi Siebuhr has lightning feet and cruises across the track with blistering
pace. In her 100m, she has pushed her time from 17.79sec down to 16.68sec. In the 200m, Heidi has cut her time by nearly three seconds from 39.14sec to 36.43sec. Again Heidi is showing how fast she can accelerate on the long jump runway by improving her performance from 2.90m out to 3.20m. It looks like Heidi and U/12 Jordana Breden both went to the same shoe shop to get their track shoes. Jordana has taken a second off her 100m from 17.93 sec to 16.50 sec. This gets even better in the 200m, where Jordana has taken just under three seconds off her first run (40.15 sec) down to 37.62 seconds. U/11 Stephen
(Smiley) Davis has made six improvements this season. Stephen knocked a second off his 100m (18.31 sec) down to 17.00 sec. Stephen also excels in the field events and so far has increased his javelin throw by 2m to 13.40m. There is a traffic jam of 14 athletes who have between four and five improvements. The first training morning was cancelled due to over night rain. The next training day is scheduled for the December 17. We kick off our second round of competition next Saturday morning with Week 1. Don’t be late. Warm ups are at 8.45am.
The All-Stars lived up to their name and batted well at Nijong Oval.

Cooma golf club news
Glen Young, Damien Walsh, John O’Shea ready to tee off for the Legacy Golf Day.
Dennis Feaver, Mick Meillon, and John Brown helped get the Legacy Golf Day up and running at the Cooma Golf Course. The final of the year long Thredbo Super Stableford was played on Sunday and Terry Johnston emerged from a run of indifferent form to easily take out the fantastic prize so generously donated by the Thredbo Ski Resort for the winner, with 40 points in pretty ordinary conditions. Down the line Steve Wheatley was runner up on 38 points. Balls were won by Tim Bedingfeld (34), Phil Amey (34), Warren Bray (33), John Harris (32), Norman Marshall (32), Jenny O’Byrne (31), Ged Mackay (31), Geoff Bohringer (31) and Tom Geach (30).
High scoring was the order of the day last Wednesday with Dave Robinson winning the A Grade Medley Stableford with 37 points (including an eagle on 14) from Norman Marshall with 33 points. B Grade was won by Gary Batten with 45 points, one of the rounds of his life (his days of hankering for C Grade dashed for the time being) from Nathan McGrath with 39 points. Jeff Burgess also fired with 41 points to win C Grade from Jenny O’Byrne on 39 points. Balls were won by Geoff Bohringer (39), Neil Venables (39), Campbell Childs (39), Tom Geach
(38), Carolyn O’Byrne (38) and John Harris (38). Bob Ashcroft won the Nearest the Pin on 9 and Terry Johnston was closest on 17. There were no results available from Saturday’s Legacy Charity Day at time of going to print. The highlight of next week’s competitions is the Final of the Match Play Championships in three grades on Sunday, along with a single stoke for the non finalists. A Medley Stableford will played on Wednesday and a Stableford on Saturday along with the Ladies playoff for the club salver.

Monaro District Cricket competition weekend results Jindabyne overcome Berridale Berridale’s junior brigade once again showed their class in the latest round of the Monaro District Cricket Association, but it wasn’t enough to overcome ladder leaders, Jindabyne. A century to Jindabyne’s Tyler Greening set up the win for visitors with his knock of 112 setting a more than competitive total. Jindabyne fast bowler, Simon Partell, backed Greening’s efforts up when he claimed the first hat-trick of the season. Jindabyne won the toss and under windy but sunny conditions chose to bat first. The Berridale opening
bowlers put Jindabyne under immense pressure with a testing opening spell which while only yielding one wicket saw Jindabyne crawl to 1/15 off 10 overs. Jack Parkyn (2/22) and James Cahill (3/29) bowled exceptionally tight but perhaps a little short. Greening (112) combined with Callan Andrews (48) to press the Jindabyne score along against some weaker change bowling. The first partnership produced 159 as Jindabyne piled on 249. Berridale’s fielding effort didn’t waiver as Ben Hearn took a catch and pounced for two run outs. In reply, Berridale got away to a strong start as Cahill
(23) and Hearn took to the bowling. Hearn was the mainstay of the innings as he hit the second ton of the game on his way to 101. Partell (3/28) and Lucas Rixon (1/41) bowled tightly to pile pressure on the Berridale innings. The homeside fell short on 205, bowled out in the last over. The win keeps Jindabyne atop of the Monaro cricket ladder while for Berridale, they’re still searching for their first win of the season. Coffey’s dismantle Dalgety Coffey’s Hotel Cricket Club made it four straight win to join Jindabyne and the Aussie Hotel atop of the Monaro District Cricket Assocation
ladder. Coffey’s dismantled Dalgety at the Dalgety Showgrounds with the 150 run win, one of the biggest of the season so far. Batting first, Coffey’s continued their strong form with the willow to post 288. Stand in captain Nathan Thompson did the majority of the damage, hitting a maiden century with 185. A ninth wicket partnership of 96 with Astin Nunan (18 not out) saved Coffey’s from posting a below-par total. Best of the bowlers for Dalgety was Mick Thompson (4-18) who at one stage was on hat-trick after trapping two Coffey’s batsmen LBW. Captain Simon Freebody
(1/33) was once again economical as he bowled nine straight overs. Dalgety’s run chase got off to a disastrous start as Steve Summerville (2/23) proved his class with the new ball. A wicket to Andrew Nowland followed by a runout the next ball left Dalgety in trouble at 3/13. Astin Nunan bowled another fruitful spell (2/25) as the homeside was dismissed for 138. Late hitting from Dave Bartel and Bob Smith brought some respectability to the score. Aussie Hotel too strong The Aussie Hotel kept their premiership defence on track with a close victory against
Peak View Jerangle at Snowy Oval. Batting first the Aussie posted 152 as Harry Sidhu returned to form on his way to a match high 60. Peak View Jerangle’s Justin Locker led the bowling attack for the visitors with his fivewicket haul of 5/33 the best spell across the weekend. In reply the Aussie bowlers kept the run-rate down as Damien Asanovski continued to take wickets, capturing 3/19 off nine overs. Fast bowler Tim Wall also picked up three wickets off his nine overs as Peak View Jerangle fell short on 144. Best with the bat were Adam Schofield with 40 not out and James Ewart 30.

Two ranges were in operation and the day with smaller numbers, 30 in all, went off without a hitch. All shooters shot well considering the conditions with the older more experienced hands showing the way. Colin O’Brien from Bermagui who hasn’t shot in a while shot a very credible 85 in B grade which almost gave him High Gun, unfortunately Col was pipped at the line by Robert Duncan with a well shot 87.

Jindabyne coming up yellow for L’Etape Australia A blaze of yellow is encompassing the Snowy Mountains town of Jindabyne as they prepare for L’Etape Australia by Le Tour de France. The thousands of amateur cycling competitors that arrive in Jindabyne in the days leading up to the December 3 event will be met with a sea of yellow to celebrate the famous yellow jersey of road racing. Driven by Jindabyne’s business community and the Chamber of Commerce, the town has pulled together to create a jaw dropping mixture of artistic instillation and community created fun called “wrap L’Etape”. “We are lucky in Jindabyne to be surrounded with amazing natural beauty but also a community that is creative, quirky and always ready to get stuck in,” said spokesperson Donna Jowett-Poulos. Local artist and owner of Wild Brumby Distillery, Brad Spalding has spear headed the artistic phase of “wrap L’Etape” with a stunning wrapping of the street sculpture in Jindabyne and the Thredbo Valley with the town’s much loved tallest resident Sir Paul Edmund Strzelecki, getting a yellow racing lycra makeover for the event. Students at Jindabyne Central School (JCS) and Snowy Mountains Grammar School (SMGS), CWA, the Men’s Shed, 1st Kosciusko Scouts, the Community Gardening group, Snowy Monaro
Council, and the Jindabyne beautification committee and businesses and families have jumped on board to make a big, bold, bright yellow statement for L’Etape. The business community has driven the project with special thanks to Jindabyne Landscaping for helping with a cherry picker and local welder Rick Edmiston for his bike sculptures. “Big and yellow is our theme but we have also focussed on sustainability,” said Donna JowettPoulos “L’Etape will be with us for at least three years so everything we are using we hope to use again next year and add to it. “The lycra is removable and reusable, the thousands of plastic yellow flowers the JCS students and the CWA are made from recyclable plastic soft drink bottles and the bike artwork from SMGS were sourced from the tip or dragged out from behind sheds.” There will be more and more yellow creations popping up over the next few weeks and with the area also hosting the ITU Cross Triathlon World Championships next week as well, everyone is encouraged to jump on board and wrap their mailbox, paint a bike or and be part of the fun for these great events.

Along with the usual Show and Shine competition, there will be a Burn Out Competition, the Loudest Bike Competition, Tug-ofWar, Tyre Toss and for the first time, a bike Gymkhana. The Gymkhana will have four events. A Slow Race will have competitors zigzag through a course as slowly as possible without falling over. The last bike across the finish line wins. Next is the Egg and Spoon race, having riders hold an egg on the end of a spoon in their mouth while they navigate the course. First across the line wins.
