Daughter Jeanette Harris remembers everyone in the household always being busy with household chores and farm work.

“We all had our chores, helping with the cooking, milking the cows and picking fruit,” she said.

“Dad would play the guitar and sing country and western, and mum would often sing in the morning to wake us all up.

On 16 August Stanley and Elsie celebrated the rare ‘second diamond’ wedding anniversary, and became one of the last couples in Australia to receive a congratulatory card from Queen Elizabeth II before her death.

The couple marked the occasion with champagne and cake with family – a smaller affair than some of their previous milestone anniversaries, including a huge bash and for their 50th anniversary and a ride in the sidecar of a Harley Davidson for their 70th.

Now residing at the Uniting AgeWell Sorell Community Ningana, Stanley and Elsie are enjoying a slower life, but keep busy reading, listening to music and spending quality time with family.

So what’s their advice for maintaining a happy marriage?

Elsie said it’s about being patient and tolerant, and being grateful for what you have. Stanley suggested never going to bed angry - you won’t be able to sleep, and the problem will still be there the next day.

After 75 years, their advice is still working.

No limits for judo juniors

Seishin Martial Arts students (L-R) Rupert, Rosie, Tom and Riley

A COMMUNITY martial arts club in Montagu Bay has been named as a finalist in the 2022 Community Achievement Awards.

For the past two and half years Seishin Martial Arts has been running judo classes for people of all ages and abilities.

Seishin delivers 30 hours of judo classes each week including the No Limits Judo sessions, which are designed to help develop motor, social and emotional regulation skills.

Social worker and judo enthusiast Carla Willing established Seishin Martial Arts after noticing there was nothing that catered for players with a disability.

“Seishin Martial Arts aims to cater to anyone of any ability or level – everyone should have the opportunity to patriciate and feel a part of something,” she said.

Seishin Martial Arts is the largest disability inclusive club in Australia, with more than 100 players currently involved.

“Our program really seeks to apply skills learnt in classes to real life situations,” Carla said.

“Not only do players learn judo but they also develop fine motor skills, emotional regulation skills, social skills, focus, resilience and balance.”

This is the second time Seishin Martial Arts has

been named as a finalist in the Community Achievement Awards.

“To be named as a finalist in the Tasprint Community Group of the Year Award is such a privilege and really acknowledges the impact this program is having on the community,” Carla said.

“People often stumble across what we do by sheer coincidence but by putting clubs, community initiatives and businesses out into the public eye through awards like these services become more known.

“It is so important to give the community access to services, supports and community

groups like ours and others that are nominated.”

Other finalists in the Tasprint Community Group of the Year Award category include the Fingal Valley Neighbourhood House, Longfordbased charity Just Cats, and the Launceston City Mission’s ‘Mission2aFuture’ project.

Established in 2007, the Community Achievement Awards are a way to acknowledge the community contributions organisations, not-forprofits, businesses and individuals make to the Tasmanian community.

“When we established

the awards we were looking across disciplines, industries and category areas that really covered the broad spectrum of contribution,” Awards managing director Geoff Griffin said.

“We currently have nine different categories, and we hope to expand this further in coming years to further represent the diverse Tasmanian community.”

This year’s awards will be presented at the Hotel Grand Chancellor on 28 October. To purchase tickets, visit humanitix.com To find out more about Seishin Martial Arts go to www. seishinmartialarts.com.au

GARDENING IN OCTOBER Bringing a mass of colour to your garden is quicker, easier and less expensive than you may think. You can create that mass of colour seen in English-style herbaceous borders or cottage gardens using annuals.

They are cheaper to buy; you may get two or three punnets of up to ten seedlings for the price of one perennial plant.

Plant your seedlings in a sunny spot that has had compost or manures dug into the bed, and plant in clumps of six to eight plants, avoiding straight rows - this will give you blocks of colour.

When choosing your seedlings look at their heights, putting the taller plants like larkspurs, snapdragons and cosmos at the back; plants like salvias, marigolds and petunias in the middle; and lobelias, alyssum and begonias at the front. You can choose a colour theme like pinks and whites or just go for a mix of colours.

Remove the dead flower heads regularly and give an occasional liquid feed and you should have a lovely display until autumn.

What Matters to Tassie kids?

A LOCAL student has won an award in a national writing competition that attracted about 4000 entries from across the country.

Clarence High School student Oenone Schofield was an overall finalist and

won the Artistic Merit Award in this year’s What Matters? Writing Competition with her entry about eating disorders, ‘A Toast - To Bringing Back the Good Times’.

Inspired by Gough Whitlam’s commitment to involving young

people in the shaping of Australia’s future, What Matters? has been running for 18 years and is open to school students in Years 5-12.

Responding to the simple question ‘what matters’, entrants are free to express their views on any matter

they care about. The competition is a catalyst for young writers to develop a perspective on where we’re heading as a society, and helps dispel the notion that young Australians are apathetic towards politics and their role as citizens.

to bend down to tie my shoelaces and I can even get up out of my chair quicker!”

The classes are facilitated by Paul Hamilton from All About Fitness, a highly qualified and passionate fitness leader with years

of experience.

He the best part of running the class is seeing the improvement in the participants.

Lions lend a helping hand MEMBERS of the Lions Club of Clarence are constantly busy helping their local community, from hosting barbecues to assisting families who are doing it tough.

The Lions Club of Clarence was chartered in February 1965 and its members have been serving the City of Clarence and the greater Hobart area ever since.

The Warrane

Mornington Neighbourhood Centre is one of the latest beneficiaries of the club’s efforts.

The Neighbourhood Centre put out a plea for help when its pantry was getting desperately low and the Lions responded, recently donating $500 worth of groceries for distribution to community members in need.

The IGA Lindisfarne

helped make the donation possible and Bakers Delight Lindisfarne has also recently come on board as a sponsor, providing the Lions with leftover bread to use at their many barbecues.

Sausage sizzles are a popular and relatively easy way for Lions and other community organisations to raise funds, and the Clarence Lions Club are regulars at

Bunnings Mornington – keep an eye out for them this summer.

The Lions Club of Clarence meets at the Lions Clubrooms at 10 Binalong Road, Mornington on the first and third Wednesdays of each month.

Primary students building a better bandicoot bunker HOWRAH Primary School students have teamed up with their local Landcare group and council on a mission to improve the habitat for local wildlife at Wentworth Park.

The Bandicoot Bunker Program, which is supported by the Glebe Hill Landcare Group and Clarence City Council, sees students create a safe haven and future habitat for the suburban population of southern brown and eastern barred bandicoots.

Located between Howrah Primary School and the Wentworth Play Park, the ‘bandicoot bunker’ provides protection from predators and a vital food source.

The southern brown bandicoot is a protected native species and while common in Tasmania, is endangered on mainland

Howrah Primary School students taking part in the Bandicoot Bunker Program

Australia. It requires a dense ground cover of native tussock grasses, sedges and shrubs for shelter and nesting.

Running for the past two years, the program includes regular working bees and incorporates in-class lessons about habitats, native flora and fauna, and the practical side of planting.

Glebe Hill Landcare Group convenor Adam Holmstrom said the group was “incredibly impressed” by the strong interest and hard work of the Howrah Primary students.

“They have prepared, planted and cared for more than 1,000 plants in eager support of the school’s value of biodiversity from education to application,” he said.

Clarence Mayor Doug Chipman said the council was proud

to continue supporting schools and community groups in protecting the city’s important flora and fauna habitats.

“Clarence has significant areas of coastal and bushland reserves and it’s so great to see the community dig in to help protect and restore our native habitats, enhancing the work council is already doing in these spaces,” he said.

“Clarence is home to the protected southern brown bandicoot, and the efforts at Wentworth Park will help revitalise the native habitat and ensure that these wonderful animals can survive and thrive long into the future.”

Montagu Bay students Louis, Amelia, Audrey and Elvis on the school's current tennis courts

Court date for quiz kids MONTAGU Bay Primary School (MBPS) is calling all quiz fanatics to come along for a night of festivities and help raise vital funds for the school.

For the second year MBPS will host its annual quiz night fundraiser to raise the money needed to upgrade the school’s two tennis courts.

MBPS Association chair Stephanie Webb said the current tennis courts are old and unsafe.

“There is a tree next to

UR DOOR

VENS

the current courts and the roots are starting to lift the surface,” she said.

“On a daily basis children are tripping on the uneven surface and injuring themselves.

“We want to try and replace both surfaces with either a synthetic or flexipave surface that is safer and more practical for the students at the school and the general public.”

Quiz teams are made up of eight people and tickets are $20 per

$36

person.

“We encourage anyone who has purchased a ticket to really embrace the theme of ‘Sports and Spectators’ – there is going to be a prize on the night for the best dressed,” Stephanie said.

“On top of the quiz game, attendees will also have the chance to partake in a raffle and silent auction.

“This project will not only benefit the students at Montagu

Bay Primary School but the entire Montagu Bay community.

“It is a really important recreational area for everyone who lives in Montagu Bay, and it is our hope that the resurfacing of the tennis courts will benefit the wider community.”

The quiz night will be hosted at Montagu Bay Primary School on 12 November. To purchase tickets phone the school reception on 6244 1897.

An arial view of the Clarence Plains region

Have your say on plans for Clarence Plains

CLARENCE City Council is calling on all community members to help shape the future of the Clarence Plains area, as it opens the second stage of consultation on the Clarence Plains Draft Master Plan.

Clarence Plains, which includes the suburbs of Clarendon Vale, Glebe Hill, Oakdowns and Rokeby, is one of the fastest growing areas in southern Tasmania.

The council has been planning for more growth by creating a Clarence Plains Master Plan which will help guide future development in the region and create a unified approach to the community’s future.

The new Master Plan builds on the 2014 Master Plan for Rokeby and Clarendon Vale, commissioned by Mission Australia, but encompasses the larger

study area of Clarendon Vale, Glebe Hill, Rokeby and Oakdowns.

Key objectives of the Master Plan project include strategies for community development, identifying opportunities for improving and expanding housing stock, strategic directions for public open space and connectivity, infrastructure, and partnership

opportunities.

Clarence Mayor Doug Chipman hopes the community will share its views on future planning where they live, work and play.

“It is vitally important that community members take the time to have their say on this draft master plan that will play such an important role in guiding the growth of our region,” he said.

“The first stage of the consultation received almost 300 responses, and we are hoping that this second stage, where we are seeking feedback on the Draft Master Plan, will attract even more interest.

“It’s important that we recognise that we are not just making plans for the current day, but rather putting into place plans that will serve future generations.

“By putting the needs of people and communities at the heart of the urban planning process we the healthier and happier our communities will be in the long term.”

Community consultation with key stakeholders including community groups, State Government bodies, education providers and Landcare groups was undertaken during the

first stage of consultation in October and December 2021.

You can have your say on the Clarence Plains Draft Master Plan at www.yoursay.ccc.tas. gov.au/clarence-plainsmaster-plan until 21 October.

Once consultation closes, community feedback will be used to refine the draft strategy before it is presented to council for endorsement.

Tool Library opens doors

(L-R) Clarendon Vale Neighbourhood Centre manager Kristy Leishman and Mission Australia Community Development Manager Stephen Dimsey at the launch of the Tool Library. For details, go to toollibrary.com.au

A NEW tool library designed to foster connection and provide a low-cost alternative to buying expensive tools or paying for repairs is now open for all local community members.

The first of its kind in Tasmania, the Clarence Plains Tool Library is a Mission Australia Initiative, hosted by Clarendon Vale Neighbourhood Centre and the Clarence Plains Community Shed.

The idea for a tool library came out of ‘Home Handy’ workshops run by Mission Australia, which teach people how to do repairs around the home.

There was good attendance at the workshops, but organisers noticed people did not

have the tools they needed.

“The Tool Library will allow everyone to have access to the things they need to look after their home, mow the lawn, trim hedges, do repairs or paint a wall,” Mission Australia Tasmania Community Development Manager Stephen Dimsey said.

“People through Clarence Plains want to keep a tidy home but cannot afford the equipment to do so, for many reasons.

“When conducting inspections of social homes, we sometimes noticed damage to property that the tenants could fixed easily.

“Rather than billing the tenants for repairs, this is

a great way to make sure the tenant has everything they need to undertake the repairs themselves.

“Hosting the Tool Library will help build more relationships with community as people drop in to collect and return tools.

“A small yearly fee will go towards the neighbourhood centre raising much-needed funds or adding to the content of the library.

“This fee entitles the person to hire any tools they need to keep their home looking good.”

Yearly membership to the library is $25 per year for someone in social housing or on a pension and $60 for someone earning a wage.

Homely Retreats founder Jay Chipman with Girls Afternoon Out founders Hayley Baker and Kath Cooper at last year’s event

Girls Afternoon Out to raise big money for cancer respite LOCAL fundraising event Girls Afternoon Out is aiming to raise $100,000 this month for charity service Homely Retreats, which provides respite and full family support for Tasmanians going through cancer.

Girls Afternoon Out founders Hayley Baker and Kath Cooper have both felt the impacts of cancer, and for the past three years they have supported people affected by cancer through an annual fundraiser.

Last year, Girls Afternoon Out raised more than $50,000 for Homely Retreats – a charity that gifts Tasmanian families experiencing cancer the opportunity to take a weekend away with loved ones.

Homely Retreats founder Jay Chipman said this time is invaluable for families dealing with cancer.

“A whole family going through cancer can get away together and have

a break and go and do something fun together,” she said.

“For some families the respite is a glimmer of hope in a very long cancer journey. For others it is a final family trip together.

“The respite is a chance to create happy memories together in what is sometimes a very sad and challenging time.”

Hayley and Kath are hoping to raise $100,000 for Homely Retreats

through this year’s Girls Afternoon Out. “The annual event brings together the most incredible group of women that had either been through cancer or had been touched by cancer,” Jay said.

This year’s event will be held at Crowne Plaza from 2-6pm on 30 October. Tickets are $165 and include food and drinks.

South Arm speed drop THE Commissioner for Transport has recently approved a reduction in the speed limit on a 5km section of South Arm Road between Sandford and just south of Clifton Beach Road.

The former speed limit of 100 km/h has been reduced to 80 km/h, bringing this into line with other similar roads.

In deciding to lower the speed limit, consideration was given

to the characteristics of the road, including the alignment and the number of accesses.

The changed speed limit was expected to come into effect by the end of September. ‘New

speed limit ahead’ signs were also placed to warn road users of the change.

Road users are reminded to follow the posted speed limits and always drive to the conditions.

All red, green, white coloured 10cm x 10cm granny squares welcome.

Birthday Bree's marathon effort

SANDFORD resident Bree Hunter recently celebrated her 41st birthday by running a marathon to raise money for local community organisation Clarence Climate Action.

Her run followed the Clarence Foreshore Trail, starting at Geilston Bay at 7.45am and heading towards the halfway mark at Tranmere.

“It was really social and fun,” Bree said.

“I had different people running with me the whole time, so it went by really quickly and didn’t feel like hard work.”

Bree, who grew up in Southern California, ran her first half-marathon when she was 17 and has been running long distances ever since.

When she was 21, she moved to New Zealand and took up trail running. Her longest run was the 82km Heaphy

Track.

In 2012, Bree moved to Tasmania to work as a wildlife ranger on Macquarie Island.

While she was there, she met her nowhusband Jeremy and the pair later moved to Sandford, where their daughter Isla was born.

The birthday marathon took Bree three hours and 50 minutes to complete, and with the help of friends and family she raised $1625.

“Clarence Climate Action is a great grassroots community organisation,” she said.

“It shows people how they can do small things to reduce the impacts of climate change.

Education is a big step in the right direction.”

Last year, for her 40th birthday, Bree ran a marathon to raise money for Lauderdale Primary School. And she has plenty of ideas for

future fundraising.

“We've all got skills, we can all do something,” she said. ''I'm good at running. So if I can use my strengths

to help community organisations, I'm going to give it a go.”

Bree has been chosen

by Clarence Climate Action as this month's Climate Champion.

Tails wag at the Dog's Day Out FROM the fluffy to the scruffy, the Eastern Shore’s best dogs (and the owners that love them) headed to Simmons Park on 2 October for the Clarence City Council’s annual Dog’s Day Out. Treats and prizes were on offer for the bestdressed and best-behaved pups, while the crowd could watch the fur fly in the agility contests and the inaugural Dachshund Dash race.

Clarence Mayor Alderman Doug Chipman said it was always a joy to deliver such a well-loved event.

“This family-friendly event is always a great day out for all, both human and canine, and I am thrilled that the event has now celebrated its 16th year,” he said.

“Last financial year Clarence had close to 10,000 dogs registered in the community, with figure expected to grow.

“This indicates we are a dog-loving city,

and this event lets us celebrate the special place they hold in our community.”

The Dog’s Day Out coincided with a school holiday animation workshop with animator Beale Gurney, and the council’s annual Poochibald Art Prize dog ‘paw-traiture’ exhibition.

Now in its 10th year, the popular event is an opportunity for community members and artists to unleash their creativity and submit a painting, drawing, print or small sculpture of their own dog, a dog they know or even a famous dog.

This year, 113 artists entered works in the adult, kids and junior categories, with the youngest artist only six years old.

Mayor Chipman was delighted to see the quality and quantity of entries.

“The Poochibald is one of our most popular events in the calendar and appeals to young

and old,” he said.

“We had a fantastic turnout this year in all categories. I would like to extend my sincere congratulations to the winners, and to all the entrants in this year’s prize.”

Community News Clarence City Council (enrolment 44,703) Councillor: (12 to be elected)

Tasmanian voters are set to head to the polls this month

Council elections 2022 ELECTIONS are being held this month to fill councillor, mayor and deputy mayor positions on all 29 of Tasmania’s local councils, including the Clarence City Council.

More than 500 people across the state have nominated to run as councillors.

In Clarence, there are 27 candidates running for 12 positions on the council. Four have nominated to replace the outgoing Doug Chipman as mayor, and 11 are up for the role of deputy mayor.

Recent amendments to the Local Government

Act 1993 mean that voting in local government elections is now compulsory for all electors on the Tasmanian electoral roll.

Local government elections in Tasmania are a full postal ballot, with the introduction of compulsory voting expected to lead to an increase in the number of postal ballots returned.

Tasmanians should have received their postal ballot packs in the mail earlier this month.

Electors need to fill out their voting paper, carefully following the instructions, and send it

back in the post as soon as possible.

The poll closes at 2pm on Tuesday 25 October.

“The announcement from the Tasmanian Electoral Commission that more than 500 candidates have nominated for the October council elections shows that democracy is well and truly alive in Tasmania’s local government sector,” Local Government Minister Nic Street said.

Perfect match – you and Banjo's platters Second Echo Ensemble. Image by Dan Cripps

Second Echo removing barriers TASMANIAN arts organisation Second Echo Ensemble thinks that now is the time to try a new support structure for diversity in the arts; one that recognises the creative contributions of all Tasmanians and offers a stable salary in these challenging times.

Second Echo Ensemble [SEE]’s mission is to redefine expectations of possibility and to challenge assumptions we hold about ourselves and others.

They make art to shake up stereotypes and give voice to untold stories.

They passionately believe that everyone, everywhere, has the right to thrive, to be seen, to be heard and to be a part of our community.

At the heart of SEE is an ensemble of diverse artists living with a range of abilities. Fifty per cent of the ensemble live with disability.

Through their innovative Pathway to Work Program they create opportunities for local artists to learn, train and work in the creative industries. SEE artists work two or three days per week on a 12-month

fixed-term contract, on a salary in the range of $62,000 -$72,000 FTE (full-time equivalent).

Alongside their creative work, each artist has input to SEE’s core business matters as part of their job.

They contribute insight into the strategic and operational plans.

SEE’s programs address the barriers which prevent disabled and marginalised people from realising their ambitions and finding employment within the creative industries “We employ them as artists living with disability

alongside and as equals with their counterparts who do not identify as living with disability,” SEE Creative Director Kelly Drummond Cawthon said.

As Tasmania’s only fully professional inclusive arts company, SEE set an example for what is possible when barriers are removed and artistic exploration is prioritised.

Get in contact with Second Echo Ensemble to explore opportunities, your interests, strengths, and most importantly, your next step.

New Hobart group for those with IBD, Crohn’s and colitis

A NEW support group for people living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) will help Tasmanians navigating the condition.

Not-for-profit organisation Crohn’s and Colitis Australia (CCA) is the peak body that supports people living with IBD, delivering a wide range of services including telephone helplines, access to specialised IBD nurses, and nation-wide support groups.

CCA’s support group services are open to everyone living with some form of IBD, and those performing caring roles – and a new support group is set to meet in Hobart for the first time this

month.

CCA Volunteers and Programs Coordinator Bart Walus said that for many people, these support groups are the only place they can speak openly about their challenges without feeling embarrassed or misunderstood.

“Our support groups create a safe and secure space where people can share,” he said.

“The support group is a form of emotional support for people living with IBD whilst also being a place to come for useful information.

“If you are wanting to expand your network and become connected with people also living with

IBD I encourage you to come along to a Hobart session.”

Support sessions are free and are open to anyone in the community, not just CCA members.

The sessions are run by volunteers who typically have IBD issues themselves or are a career of someone living with IBD. Hobart sessions will be held on the every third Wednesday of every month, from 6.15pm – 7.45pm at 108-110 Bathurst Street. The first is on 19 October.

Bellerive Fiesta hits a six for T20 World Cup AS punters get ready to swarm the iconic Bellerive Oval later this month for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022, the popular Australian sporting pastime won’t be the only form of spring entertainment on offer.

To welcome disembarking ferry patrons in style as they start their leisurely walk to Bellerive Oval, Clarence City Council will be hosting its very first Bellerive Fiesta on Friday 21 and Sunday 23 October.

The Bellerive Boardwalk will be transformed into a fun and festive space for the whole family, featuring a wonderful play space by Soda Projects (MONA, Taste of Summer), giant bubble play for kids – big and small – to create their very own giant bubbles, and the chance to try juggling, stilt walking, diablo or poi throwing with Social Circus Tasmania.

The event will also include free face painting, the brilliant Hugo Bladel with Off

Ya Trolley Mobile Disco, Beat Latina dancers and a host of other roaming performers, as well as food from your favourite food trucks including Kaki Lima, Wattlebanks, Munchies Street Food and more.

Clarence Mayor Doug Chipman said it will be great to welcome visitors to the beautiful City of Clarence with a fun and festive fiesta.

“Come and enjoy a springtime festival atmosphere down at your boardwalk – and all for free,” he said.

“We are so excited to be hosting the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022 at our very own Bellerive Oval, and what better way to kickstart a day for the whole family than with a riverside festival backdropped by the picturesque kunanyi/Mt Wellington.

“The Derwent Ferry service has already proven a popular mode of transport when travelling across the Derwent for the cricket – as we saw first-hand during the Ashes Test in January this year.

“Clarence City Council has fully welcomed the announcement by the State Government of the introduction of permanent Saturday sailings, just in time for the warmer months, and we encourage the community to continue to embrace this new and exciting method of transportation.

(L-R) Palliative Care Tasmania board member Sally Faulkner, Palliative Care Tasmania CEO Colleen Johnston and Palliative Care Australia CEO Camilla Rowland

Quality of Life conference comes to Hobart PALLIATIVE care and end-of-life planning isn’t only about death and dying - it is about living the best life you can while living with a life-limiting condition, accessing the most appropriate supports, and ensuring your end-of-life wishes are understood.

It is all about ‘quality of life’, which is the theme of this year’s palliative care conference being held in Hobart on 17-18 November.

Featuring international and national guest

speakers, 24 concurrent information sessions and a trade show of service providers, the 2022 Tasmanian Palliative Care Conference will bring together leading minds to exchange and share experiences. As well as professional and personal development, it will be a great opportunity to network with more than 200 palliative care professionals from a range of disciplines.

The two-day conference is open to the community and to people working

across the sector including clinical and non-clinical health care professionals, aged care workers, home care providers, community service organisations, volunteers, carers or anyone supporting someone living with a life-limiting condition or grieving.

The conference will showcase more than 20 speakers including Dr Leeroy William, the director of Supportive and Palliative Care Service at the Eastern Health Clinical School; Professor

Kimberly D. Acquaviva from the University of Virginia School of Nursing; Professor Steven Z Pantilat from the University of California San Francisco; and Dr Lidia Engel and Dr Katrin Gerber from the National Ageing Research Institute in Victoria. See the website for a full program list.

Experienced square dance caller Gary Petersen

Rebel square dance caller on a mission ACCREDITED square dance caller Gary Petersen is reinvigorating square dancing in southern Tasmania.

Last century there were many square dance clubs in the Hobart area, but most have now closed.

With more than 25 years’ experience as a sought-after square dance caller, Gary recently moved to Hobart with a plan to get people away from their TVs and computers and onto the dancefloor to try “one of the best social activities around”.

Often described as “fun and friendship set to music”, square dancing is a noncompetitive interactive dance that involves eight dancers working

together to solve the puzzle the caller delivers.

The more calls the dancers know the more the caller has to work with, creating fun and intrigue.

Gary and his wife started square dancing in Queensland in 1994, and he was instantly hooked. He soon started calling and then teaching square dancing, and by 2017 was calling up to nine sessions per week at four different clubs – a total of about 24 hours of calling weekly.

He has called at festivals and conventions all across Australia, and overseas in Germany and New Zealand.

Gary likes to use a broad range of music when calling and is

particularly known for using upbeat tracks and dance remixes, earning him the nickname ‘the Rebel Caller’.

Now he is hoping to reintroduce square dancing to the Hobart community and remove the stigma associated with the activity.

He is planning to start a group at Moonah’s Caledonian Society Hall on Tuesday nights at 7.30pm, before expanding into other areas in Hobart early next year.

Anyone interested in learning square dancing can contact Gary on 0499088680 or email therebelcaller@gmail. com As Gary says, “dare to be square, it’s fun with flair!”

SQUARE DANCING is FUN & FRIENDSHIP set to MUSIC

Jo Cordell-Cooper is always prepared for a hike

Hiking fitness Why have private real dynamic health insurance? balancing act Jo Cordell-Cooper WHENEVER I go hiking there is the inevitable conversation about what the best way to get fit for hiking is.

We all appreciate that hiking is a great way to get fit for hiking, but if you are time-poor you might like to incorporate these exercises to improve cardio fitness, muscle strength and dynamic balance.

Dynamic balance is all about being able to cope with uneven surfaces without rolling your ankle or slipping or tripping. It’s about staying on your feet.

My experience is that most people struggle more with this when they are coming down a steep hill, and towards the end of a long hike and the body is tired. Try these exercises: 1. Heel-toe polka – stand with your right leg on a rolled-up yoga mat (the thicker the better). With your right leg on the mat, heel tap to the front with the left leg, then toe tap to the back left leg. Pulse the right leg up and down and keep joints soft – you will wobble, but that’s ok. Tap front to back 20 times, then switch legs.

2. Step repeaters using a stair or stable low bench, step up and tap back to the ground with the same leg 15-20 times, then

switch legs. The real benefit of this one is in the control of stepping down. Be slow and steady and lead with the heel, bending the support leg each time. You’ll become stronger and improve your dynamic balance with this exercise, and that’s great for both hiking up and descending.

3. Step-overs – practise stepping over a box about knee height. Practise stepping forwards, sideways, diagonally and backwards. This is fabulous for preparing you for stepping over fallen tree trunks.

Do 15-20 each leg leading.

If you complete three rounds of these three exercises as well as some slow lunging and squatting while wearing your backpack you’ll be really preparing your body for all kinds of hiking adventures!

MANY people question the need for private health insurance. Here are some advantages to having private health cover and not just relying on Medicare.

Peace of mind Ensuring the health of you and your family is very important.

Private hospital cover gives peace of mind by guarding against large and unexpected hospital and health care bills.

Plus, extras cover can reduce costs for dental visits, glasses, physio sessions and much more – making it easier to afford health.

Other health care costs Medicare does not cover the cost of dental, optical, physiotherapy, chiropractic and many other health services. HCi

offers you three levels of extras cover to help offset these health costs.

Medicare Levy Surcharge (MLS) Private health insurance also helps high earners avoid paying the MLS of up to 1.5 per cent of their income. This surcharge is on top of the Medicare Levy paid through tax.

Medicare covers hospital and medical costs as a public patient in a public hospital. It gives you no choice of doctor and usually means a shared ward. There is often a substantial waiting time for treatment, especially for elective surgery.

With HCi health cover, if you or your family need hospital care, you get greater

control over who treats you where. Usually, elective surgery wait times are significantly less than the public system.

HCi covers over 500 private hospital facilities, and more than 30,000 doctors.

Lifetime Health Cover (LHC) loading LHC is a financial loading added to hospital cover rates. If you join early and continue hospital cover, you get lower premium rates than those starting cover when older.

A loading of two per cent applies for each year you are over 30 when starting cover, up to a maximum of 70 per cent.

So, if you join at 40, you could pay an extra 20 per cent on your hospital cover costs.

PET TALK

Life after COVID-19:

Preparing our dogs for the future Our four-legged friends have been reaping the benefits of our extra time at home: more walks, more play time, more chin scratches. And in turn, they’ve been an enormous source of comfort during this scary time.

.COM.AU

FIND YOUR PERFECT MATCH CHIPS 6 years old, desexed, vaccinated and well trained.

Chips is a gentle, well trained boy who was previously a much loved companion of an elderly person. Chips is an inside boy and ideally his new family will have a good sized fenced garden, enjoy playing ball and going out together for daily walks DELILAH Delilah is a lovely young lady who has had an unfair start to life.

Delilah and her babies were found one by one taking shelter in someone’s garden along with her brothers and sisters. It seems they have been someones pets then left to fend for themselves.

Given time Delilah will make someone a lovely furry friend she just needs someone to trust. Delilah is a special sort. This darling girl even took in another stray kitten, nursing and caring for him as he was her own! She has showed with her foster carers she makes special bonds with people and other cats.

Delilah needs the best of homes where she can finally have the life she deserves!

But part of being a responsible pet owner is preparing your dog for what comes next.

When we inevitably go back to work, school and study, our pets must once again adjust to being home by themselves for many hours of the day. This is true of pets who have been part of the family for many years, as well as those who have only recently come into our lives.

Here are some tips to prevent your dog from feeling confused after you head back to a regular routine after COVID-19.

Stick to a routine Just like us, dogs are creatures of habit. Create a routine that includes enrichment, rest, exercise and alone time during the day, putting aside time to head out of the house without them if you can.

Let them sleep Dogs’ sleep pattern vary according to their age, activity levels, health and individual characteristics. Most dogs sleep for an average of 10-14 hours a day (which basically puts them on par with their human’s self-isolation patterns), while puppies sleep more. If you spot them catching some shut eye, leave them to rest and only ask them to play with you once they’ve woken up on their own.

There is such a thing as too many walks Most dogs need 30 to 45 minutes of aerobic exercise per day, dependant on health status; some may need more and some less. Even though we’re all tempted to take our dogs out for extra walks at the moment, please exercise your dog within their own capabilities and keep to an exercise routine that you are able to keep up once you return to work or study.

Encourage your dog to play with their toys Make your dog toys more interesting by smearing dog-safe foods on them, such as

BECOMING A FOSTER CARER Contact: 6709 8100

UZIEL & MATRIEL Archangel Pigeons are beautiful, unusual and make great pets.

These pigeons need to be adopted in pairs to ensure social enrichment and longevity (7-10 years). They enjoy bathing in shallow bird baths and being misted to encourage healthy grooming.

Natural perches of varying widths and textures should be provided to exercise their feet and prevent pressure sores. Birds should be able to wrap their feet around two-thirds to three-quarters of the whole perch’s circumference. Platforms may also be provided. A large aviary or loft is needed to ensure these birds can display natural behaviours and stretch their wings.

Uziel and Matriel are just two of the archangels available.

peanut butter or canned dog food. If your dog has any health problems, check with your vet first. Start rotating the toys frequently too, rather than leaving them lying around. If you collect and clean a toy once your dog is finished with it, and then place it away in a toy box, it will greatly increase the novelty value next time it comes out.

If you’re still not having much success, try different types of toys like rope toys, Kongs, balls, squeaky toys, soft toys, etc.

Invest time into training Now is a great time to invest in some reward-based training and education. This can be done at home, as many professional dog trainers have on-line resources and classes you can take advantage of. However, make sure that you only use trainers who use exclusively reward-based training methods and never aversive techniques or equipment.

Use this time to revisit basic life skills training such as sit, come, drop/down and stay.

Consider canine nose work or sensory walks where the aim of the outing is to let your dog sniff whatever they want for as long as they like and allow them to lead you to where you want to go (these are also called a ‘sniffari’).

Banish the bowl Eating food from the same old bowl everyday isn’t so fun. Think of some creative feeding techniques like Kong toys, puzzle feeders, chew bones and scatter feeds to increase the time and mental energy spent foraging and eating. These feeding solutions will also keep your pup entertained while you’re away from home.

To help your dog, you can: • Increase the time your dog spends alone gradually and ensure they have a comfortable ‘safe haven’ where they can relax and rest. Use the above enrichment suggestions, like smearing tasty food on their toys or use a long-lasting chew for them whilst they are in this area.

• Create a comfortable and safe space in which your dog wouldn’t mind spending time alone. The area should include clean food and water bowls, toys, bed and a toileting area.

• Make your backyard more complex and adventure filled. Think a digging pit, kennel, and extra toys.

• Start off by giving your dog time alone in smaller increments. Leave them alone for a few minutes, five minutes, ten minutes, then 20, then 30 and so on.

Remember, never punish unwanted behaviour. This will only make the situation worse.

Planning ahead When life does eventually get back to normal, you could always look at other ways to involve your dog in your day-to-day life.

Bring your dog along to outings where possible, like picking the kids up from school or extended family gatherings. You could also hire a dog walker to take your dog out for regular exercise during the day, or invest in a doggy day care.

What is separation anxiety?

A more serious behavioural issue is ‘separation anxiety’, a general term that is used to describe a dog’s distress and destructive behaviours when they’re left alone, or even when their owner starts to prepare to leave the home.

Separation anxiety can include urinating and defecating in new places, escaping, digging, chewing, howling, barking and pacing.

It’s important to note that separation anxiety

must be diagnosed by a veterinary behaviourist. If you think your dog is displaying signs of this behaviour, please get in touch with your veterinarian.

Alternatively, tap your friends with dogs on the shoulder and ask if they’d be happy with you dropping your dog at theirs for the day.

Three inspiring cats and the army of people behind them Rich East – Ten Lives Cat Centre ONE of the greatest things about working at Ten Lives is getting to see the success stories first-hand.

Of course, there are many cats that breeze through the Centre, clear their medical examinations, and quickly find their new homes. Then there are the cats that seem to have the odds stacked against them, and an army of people behind them who get them to that finishing line. It’s these cats that I find particularly inspiring.

Twelve-week-old Romeo arrived in April alongside his two littermates, Callie and Kiwi. White and black Romeo presented with a distressing abnormality to his right hind knee.

He was sent offsite for x-rays to get a better idea of the issue and they found that he had a severe medial

patella luxation. This required amputation and extensive recovery in foster care.

Having only three legs wasn’t going to hold Romeo back, and after 63 days in care it only took two days in the adoption rooms to find his new family.

Two-year-old Lucy came to us in May in a bad way. It was likely that she had been hit by a car and she required amputation of her left hind leg due to multiple fractures It took two weeks before she could start walking again and she required daily physio sessions to build her strength.

She is now in foster care to see out the rest of her rehabilitation and we are sure that she will be snapped up when she arrives in the adoption rooms.

Then there was George, or Curious George as his foster carers called him. This

but also the families who accept them as they are.

For each cat, there is an army of people behind them; from the intake staff who welcome them into the Centre, the vet team who provide medical care, to the animal attendants who feed and clean their kennels.

However, it is our foster carers who open their homes with love and support for cats and kittens in need during their rehabilitation. Foster carers volunteer their time to look after cats in their home and are provided with all training,

supplies and food.

Ten Lives simply couldn’t do what we do without our foster carers to see cats like George, Lucy and Romeo through to their adoption day.

If fostering a cat in need is something you might be interested in, reach out and talk to us.

Ten Lives Cat Centre is a self-funded animal charity that relies on donations and volunteers to care for and rehome the unwanted cats and kittens of Tasmania.

sweet kitten arrived at five weeks old with a congenital condition known as eyelid agenesis.

This is a painful condition where his right eyelid hadn’t formed properly so fur would rub and irritate his eyes. The condition had progressed such that the eye had to be removed.

George spent nearly three months in foster care before arriving in the adoption rooms and took just one day to find his new family.

I find the resilience of these cats inspiring - how they accept adversity and get on with their lives –

CTST on the lookout for volunteer drivers DO you love to drive?

Community Transport Services Tasmania (CTST) is seeking volunteer drivers to join their team to provide door-to-door transport services for clients around the state.

For the past 30 years, CTST has been a trusted not-forprofit provider of affordable door-to-door community transport for eligible clients.

Kerry Pohle is one of the volunteer drivers who help clients maintain their independence and social connections by driving them to non-emergency medical appointments, shopping and social outings.

“I became a volunteer driver because I love people,” Kerry said.

“I particularly wanted to provide a service to people with a disability and help them get out and about in the community.

“I pride myself on delivering a good service and making clients feel comfortable while in the car with me, having a laugh or sing-along.”

Kerry has been a volunteer driver with CTST for more than three years and encourages anyone to get involved.

“When I’m out, if I hear

people looking for something to do while they are retired for example, then I’ll give them a flyer and encourage them to be a driver,” she said.

To be a driver with CTST, all you need is a valid driver licence and everything else is taken care of. Drivers are given the flexibility to choose the days they can volunteer and how far they are comfortable to drive.

Drivers are provided with a vehicle and comprehensive training. They receive support on the road and there is a generous reimbursement program.

“CTST couldn’t exist without the support of our wonderful volunteers,” CTST CEO Lyndon Stevenson said.

“Our team of volunteers provide a valuable service to our clients so they can remain connected and living in their community.

“If you are looking for a rewarding way to give back to the community and enjoy driving, we would love you to join our team.”

Tasmanian audiologists Nick and Heidi Modrovich bring a holistic approach to hearing care through Ability Hearing and Balance

Taking a holistic approach to hearing loss and balance TASMANIANS now enjoy the convenience of having earwax micro-suction and hearing tests in the same appointment, since the launch of Ability Hearing and Balance 18 months ago.

Owner and audiologist Mr Nick Modrovich has been looking after the hearing health of Tasmanians since 2007.

Nick and wife Heidi - also an experienced audiologisthave been at the forefront of hearing healthcare for decades.

“We were the first to bring our hearing clinics out into the suburbs of Kingston, Glenorchy and Rosny back in 2010,” Nick said.

“We are now the first to offer a full suite of balance and vestibular testing in Tasmania. Patients no longer have to travel interstate to be tested.

“We offer the convenience of having all things audiology in one place.

“If you come to your hearing test or hearing aid adjustment with your ears full of wax, we can sort this out for you there and then.

No need to reschedule your appointment to have your ears cleaned at the doctors.

“Balance concerns often go hand in hand with hearing loss, and we can talk to you about your symptoms at your hearing

test.

“We provide a holistic approach to audiology – our main point of difference is that we are a clinic, not a shop.

“If you are after amazing deals on hearing aids, we offer this too. We only fit major manufacturerbranded hearing devices so you know exactly what you are buying.

“And by supporting a local Tasmanian family, you are choosing to support your local community!”

When she died, we arranged for her band to play at her funeral. A spotlight marked her usual place, so she could be part of one last performance and take her final bow.

The best way to say goodbye is just the way they would have wanted.

A FINANCIAL MOMENT Why is my super falling?

Damian Gibson, Financial Adviser and Partner, Elevate Wealth

Authorising someone to help Hank Jongen, Services Australia HI everyone, There are many reasons why you may want someone else to help you manage your Centrelink payments when dealing with Services Australia.

You could be travelling, caring for someone, have too much on your plate, or finding it too difficult to keep your information up to date.

If it’s something you think you’ll need, you can authorise someone to help you do your everyday business with us.

You might want to let friends or family ask us questions to help you better understand your

payments. Giving them permission to enquire allows us to talk to them and tell them what’s going on. You can go also give them authority to update your records if you want.

There may be times when you need someone to make decisions for you, or even receive your payments on your behalf to help you manage your finances.

If you do, you can choose to authorise a ‘Correspondence Nominee’ and/or a ‘Payment Nominee’. If you already have a Power of Attorney, we would recommend you also appoint that person to be your nominee.

You may want help

from a loved one as you age. You can authorise a ‘correspondence nominee’ to make decisions and act on your behalf. They can ask questions, make updates, even make claims for payments and services on your behalf.

A copy of the letters we send you will also be sent to them. They can even access your Centrelink Online Account to manage your online business with us.

If it’s hard for you to manage your bills, you can authorise a ‘payment nominee’ to help you with your living expenses.

They’re required to keep a record of all payments received and how they’ve

spent your payment on your behalf.

They can ask questions about how much you’ll be paid and where the payments will go to and they will have limited access to your Centrelink online account.

Remember that having an arrangement in place doesn’t prevent you from speaking with us or doing your business with us. You can cancel any arrangement you have set up at any time. Just call us or cancel it online.

To find out more about the different types of arrangements, go to servicesaustralia.gov.au and search for ‘nominee’.

See you next time.

Hank Jongen

FINANCIAL markets have taken a hit in 2022. We have seen the Bond market (generally a safe asset) have one of its worst years in history and some share markets fall into a bear market (a decline of 20 per cent or more).

Why is this occurring?

The main reason is inflation. For a country to tame inflation it must increase interest rates, which generally has a negative impact on most asset classes.

Interest rates significantly influence how an economy performs. When rates rise, the cost of money increases, which reduces borrowing and investment, and consequently slows business activity.

While Central Banks have been rapidly increasing interest rates to combat high levels of inflation, financial markets have been pricing in the next concern for the global economy.

It is widely speculated that a global recession is looming and may hit in 2023. If current levels of inflation are persistent it will increase the likelihood of recession. This could see financial markets continue their downward trend.

When you are near, or in, retirement, protecting your super balance becomes equally, if not more important than chasing high returns.

Understanding how your super is invested is

crucial, especially in the current environment.

On average, most Aussies are invested in default balanced investment funds which hold approximately 70 per cent of your money in growth assets (risky) and approximately 30 per cent in defensive assets (safe).

To some people this mix of growth and defensive might be too risky. The more you have invested in growth assets, typically the more volatile your portfolio will be.

Equally important as reviewing your investments is having a plan to fund your income in retirement.

History shows that recessions have been short-lived, with the average life of a recession being one year or less.

In most cases, money inside super will be invested in assets that are subject to volatility.

In times of economic downturn some assets will fall in value. If your super balance falls and you need to draw income from your super, it can have adverse impacts on your balance long-term.

This is because when your super fund sells assets to fund your regular income, it must sell down a larger portion of assets to fund the same amount of income. This results in your balance reducing faster than expected over time. However, it can be avoided.

Isolating a portion of your balance in a cash option will remove the volatility risk for that portion of money.

Some superannuation

providers offer cash accounts which can be a very useful tool in times of economic instability.

When retired, or approaching retirement, a cash account can be used to store future income.

This means that instead of your super fund selling your assets at a low point, income can be withdrawn from a cash account instead.

This will not only give you certainty of income, but it will also reduce the risk of depleting your balance if financial markets continue to fall.

Recession is the last thing pre-retirees and retirees want to experience, so it is understandable if you’re re-thinking your retirement plans or are nervous about what the future holds for financial markets.

Receiving professional financial advice in times like this is invaluable, not only to help protect your money, but also to provide certainty and a sense of direction.

Liberal Member for Clark Elise Archer presents the shield to Cripps Waratah Netball Club president Sonia Shelverton

Nothing but net

THE Southern Tasmanian Netball Association (STNA) held its Annual Awards and Presentation Night for the 2022 season at Ladbrokes Park Elwick recently.

The largest netball association in southern Tasmania, featuring 12 clubs from across the Greater Hobart area, the STNA coordinates programs and competitions for participants of all abilities, starting from the age of five.

Last year the STNA had 2184 players hit the court, including 1052 juniors and 933 senior players.

Local Liberal Member for Clark Elise Archer

attended the Awards Night to present awards, and had the pleasure of presenting the Elise Archer STNA Club Championship shield to the Cripps Waratah Netball Club.

“As a sponsor and supporter of many local sporting and community clubs in my electorate, I was delighted to be able to attend in person again to show my support for the positive impact sport can play in our lives,” she said.

“Our local sporting clubs provide a significant role in the health and wellbeing of our community, and I am committed to continuing my

support to clubs in my electorate of Clark.

“The STNA Awards importantly recognise players, coaches and umpires and inducts life members to the Southern Tasmanian Netball Association.

“Congratulations to all recipients and those acknowledged and celebrated for their hard work and contributions to our community.”

Ms Archer said the 2022-23 State Budget allocated a $200,000 boost to Netball Tasmania, taking the total Tasmanian Government funding to Netball Tasmania to $500,000.

Time for cricket CTPL team representatives at the season launch at Bellerive Oval

THE Wilson Homes Cricket Tasmania Premier League (CTPL) 2022-23 season is underway, after being officially launched at Blundstone Arena last month.

The Men’s and Women’s First Grade competitions commenced on 1 October, with four Men’s and two Women’s matches played across the weekend.

In the Men’s competition, Glenorchy beat the Greater Northern Raiders by four wickets with 16 overs to spare thanks to batter Nicholas Davis, who smashed 130 not out off just 82 balls.

In 2008 Kaye answered a request for volunteers to become part of the Hobart FM family, and for the past 14 years she has woken up listeners at 6am once a week as a Hobart FM breakfast presenter.

Kaye currently presents breakfast from 6 - 9am on Tuesday mornings, playing anything from classical through to country, jazz and today’s modern grooves.

“I can’t think of a better thing to do,” Kaye says.

“Hobart FM has a family of people who tune in. They give us a call and send us messages on Facebook, and we know their life stories almost as much as we know our own.

BRING IT ON Hobart fans prepare for the Men’s ICC T20 World Cup, which is coming to Bellerive Oval on 17 October

THE highly coveted ICC Men’s T20 World Cup trophy has arrived at Bellerive Oval, as Hobart prepares to host seven international teams – and their fans - this month.

The West Indies, Scotland, Ireland, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and South Africa will play a total of nine matches at Bellerive from 17 October, with Hobart hosting more games than any other Australian city.

Forecast to be the biggest broadcast event in Australia this year, the World Cup is anticipated

to reach more than one billion live TV viewers around the world.

Local cricket fans are excitedly gearing up for the World Cup, and had a chance to see the sought-after hardware when the World Cup Trophy Tour reached Bellerive on 30 September.

ICC men’s T20 World Cup 2022 local organising committee chief executive Michelle Enright said the people of Hobart would not want to miss out on the tournament.

“It is a real treat for Tasmanians to have

some of the world’s best cricket right here in Bellerive,” she said.

“This is a World Cup for everyone, and we want this to be a celebration not only of cricket but of the many cultures that make up its extraordinary global fanbase.

“The power of a World Cup is the way that it really brings generations and cultures together.

“I encourage everyone, including non-cricket fans to come along and experience the electric atmosphere at the stadium.”

Sport and Recreation Minister Nic Street said the global exposure the event will bring to Tasmania is “phenomenal”.

“Any time you bring events involving international teams to a city, you attract not only the teams but also the supporters,” he said.

“We would be hopeful that people from all over the globe are going to come to Hobart to support their teams in this T20 World Cup.” To find out more about the event and buy tickets, go to www. t20worldcup.com
