A moon dance tribute in the astronomy capital Van The Man will make contact with the Coonabarabran community for the Dark Sky Awakens Festival this coming weekend.

Sci-fi enthusiasts and fans are invited to join

the festivities through purchasing tickets online at 123tix.com.au or at the door.

There are options to stand and watch the show, or enjoy a seat and a two-course meal provided by the Imperial Hotel bistro.

Van The Man’s lead singer, Steve Hogan said ticket holders would be

in for a treat, as the band likes to put on a big show of enter tainment and good music.

Local communit y member and passionate musician, Paul Iannazzelli is the band’s keyboard player and he is eagerly gearing up for the show.

‘Van the Man’ – a Van Morrisson tribute show, will headline this weekend’s Dark Sky Awakens Festival in Coonabarabran.

during a time where the Sydney music scene was evolving.

Throughout the early ‘90s, the band was a trio with two guitars and a set of congas, that played a variety of music, ranging from John Denver to Led Zeppelin.

Today, they exist as a six-piece band with instr uments including drums, guitar, keyboard, saxophone and harmonica.

Mr Hogan said there were a few reasons why they chose to become a tribute band to Van Morrison.

“We wanted to go the opposite way to what the trend was. It can be difficult to sell original music in Australia, so we went with a popular tribute band,” Mr Hogan said.

“To be honest, the girls liked our Van Morrison covers the most – that played a big part of our decision and we didn’t want to do heavier stuff like AC/DC. “In terms of the music itself, there was nothing g o i n g a ro u n d ba sed o n a ke y b o a r d a n d sa xophone. We we re different in that respect, we weren’t a lead guitar band.”

Due to the diversity of music, Van The Man became a successful act, and i n 2 0 0 0 the band was asked to play at the Sydney Olympics.

It wa s o n e of th e i r biggest gigs, and over the yea r s the band continued to bring Van Morrison’s music to fans across the world.

A few ye a r s d ow n the line, Mr Hogan said he reached a pinnacle moment of his career.

He was i nvited to replace Van Morrison, after the singer pulled out of a m i l l i ona i re’s 40th birthday party in Chicago.

When he was flown ove r to the United States, Mr Hogan was asked to play in front of a 20-piece orchestra and said the audience thought Van Mor rison had come out of the blue.

Ove r the yea r s, M r Hogan has almost perfected Van Morrison’s unusual vocal range – unlocking the ability to place more words in a phrase than the timing of music generally allows.

This is a difficult jazzand - b l ues tech n iq ue and took a few years for to perfect.

“The course is looking better than other years.

It is nice and flat, drains well and has a good, long straight so every horse has an equal chance of winning,” Mr Kemp said.

“We a have good sense of community spirit in the town and the course is in a beautiful location, looking over the river. “ I just l i ke se ei ng horses go rou nd a nd everyone having a good time. It is a lot of work for a few people, so for everything to go well is a huge relief.”

Kokoda’s footsteps – insights to a historical path Following ANZAC Day, Coonabarabran local, Tyson Birtles reflected on his journey through the Kokoda Track and his ancestors who served in war.

by GEORGIA SPENCE While walking one of the most treacherous terrains in the world, Mr Birtles gained much insight into the history of those who served in battle.

Seventeen years ago Mr Birtles supported a group of at-risk and

homeless youth through the Kokoda T rack in Papua New Guinea.

At the time, he was a youth worker in Sydney and led a program to build resilience in young people, as they learnt to tackle obstacles head on.

The trek is not for the faint of heart, as hikers

navigate through dense jungle, over a span of 90 kilometres, in eight nights and nine days.

Those brave enough to face the terrain are c h a l len g e d by s t e ep inclines, deep valleys, varied climates and the possibility of rain that turns the ground to a muddy bog.

On the trail, M r Birtles and the fellow trekkers contemplated what the soldiers went through, emerging with a better understanding on the sacrifices they had endured. “ S e ei ng the you ng people who went through that experience grow and pull through

and gather respect for the soldiers – it was a big h igh l ight ,” M r Birtles said.

“The whole experience was tough for all of us.

At that time I realised I wasn’t going through half as much as what t h o s e s o ld i e r s we nt through, with bullets f ly i ng ever y where,

sickness and rationing. “ I appre ciat e the sacrifices and struggles they made to fight for our country.”

Throughout the journey, the group met the last serving Fuzzy Wuzzy Angel – a name g iven by Au st r a l i a n troops to Papua New Guinean war carriers.

The ‘Fuzzy Wuzzies’ wer e r e c r u it e d , a nd some forced, to bring suppl ies up t o the front and carry injured troops down the Kokoda Track.

W hile on the trail, M r B i r t le s pa id h i s respects to all soldiers a nd remembered h is ancestors who served in war.

He paid respect to his great grandfathers a n d e x- s e r v i c e m e n , Bill Lumley and Oscar Gr i f f iths, as wel l as his great-grandmotjer, Je a n C o op er, who served as a nurse.

He ref lected on t he fem i n i ne a sp e c t of the wa r and what the women and nurses endured, while the men served overseas.

Mr Birtles said he was also fortunate enough to travel to St Brillier, France, with an under

16’s Indigenous rugby league team and honour a soldier from Burra Bee Dee. T hat sold ier was William Allan Erwin, who pa s s e d away i n France during battle.

Mr Birtles and team mate, Joe Flick, paid respect to the soldier by placing sand from Burra Bee Dee on his grave.

Since returning home, M r Birtles’ experiences have continued to shape and inspire him.

Now work i n g a s a student support officer at Coonabarabran High School, he said he would like to return to Papua N ew G u i ne a w it h a group of young people, to provide them with the opportunity and the experience to grow.

“I don’t think we will ever fully understand what they went through over there,” Mr Birtles said. “ I do think the Kokoda Track was one of the best ways for me to pay respect and remember the soldiers a nd my a ncest ors who represented ou r country.”

Tyson Birtles paid respect to his great grandfathers and ex-servicemen, Bill Lumley (left) and Oscar Griffiths, when walking the Kokoda Track.

Tyson Birtles, who completed the Kokoda Track 17 years ago, said the trek gave him an appreciation for what Australian soldiers went through.

2024 ANZAC DAY: COONABARABRAN

Darcy Strong honoured as winner of Jim Nelson Essay Competition Coonabarabran High School student Darcy Strong provided the winning entry in the Jim Nelson Essay Competition. Emily’s entry was read at the dawn service in Coonabarabran on ANZAC Day. Jim Nelson was a veteran of Gallipoli and the Western Front and finally settled in Coonabarabran. The annual award is donated by Jim Nelson’s grandson, David Collins, himself a veteran of the Royal Australian Airforce in Vietnam. Following is Darcy’s story: My thoughts and understanding of ANZAC Day have changed as I have grown older. I have learned we are not just commemorating a specific battle, but also honouring the countless individuals who selflessly served our nation at significant risk. ANZAC Day is about recognising the resilience and courage of those who confronted unimaginable events on the front line and the families who waited nervously at home.

Ever y Australian citizen was ser ving in one way or another. We salute not only our service members but also the doctors and medics.

We salute the mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters and children who supported their loved ones in the call to arms. We salute all those who played a part in equipping the service people with the essentials and food production. But, most importantly, we give homage to the men whose feet were on the ground, committed to duty, and willing to lay down their lives for the freedom and the society that we now enjoy.

When we commemorate ANZAC Day, we must remember that the call to arms was given again in 1939, and the country rallied together to preserve our freedom.

Since then, we have been involved in other wars, and our service men and women have always been prepared to do their duty. I salute them.

H o w eve r, eve n t h o u g h I w i l l n eve r understand the great sacrifices and traumatic events these men and women went through fo r thei r count r y, I do unde r stand w hy we remember and reflect on the heroic sacrifices. My great-grandfather enlisted in the Second World War at the age of 17 to serve beside his brother. Sadly, they were separated in Greece at the Corinth Canal while destroying a bridge to prevent the Germans from advancing. While doing this, he was among the few men on the wrong side of the bridge.

In June of 1941, his parents received the letter that he was missing in war. Despite thinking the worst and hoping for the best, it was three months later when they found out he was taken as a prisoner of war by the Germans and held prisoner until the end of the Second World War. The reason I mention this is that despite his parents being distraught and his father witnessing during WWI how violent, traumatic, and horrible war is, he still signed his son’s enlistment

papers because he knew that this was for the greater good of humanity and for the world we now love.

Like many other people, I am touched by the great sacrifices of war. When I think about my ancestors who served in a variety of conflicts, their courage, and commitment inspire me to remember them no matter what my circumstances are.

In a wor ld that often seems divided and uncertain, the ANZAC Day service is a beacon of hope and a reminder that even in the darkest of times, the human spirit has the capacity for courage, resilience, and compassion. It’s a day that reminds us of the power of community, the importance of standing up for what is right and the enduring legacy of those who have gone before us.

But ANZAC Day is not just about looking back; it’s also about moving forward. It is about remembering the past while striving to create a future in which conflicts are solved by dialogue and understanding instead of violence and aggression. This is about building a sense of unity and comradeship that goes beyond borders.

For the men who fortunately survived the First World War, most returned home with mental-health problems, including posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, and anxiety, and this could often result in suicide.

No one will ever understand the experiences these men suffered unless they were there with them. Most men returned and never spoke a word about the war.

The RSL was formed by returned veterans so that they could have each other because only they could understand each other.

Even now, the RSL is still made up of returned veterans and still tries to offer support and guidance to any victim of war. If the RSL had not been formed, there would have been no ANZAC Day, and the heroic sacrifices these men made may have been forgotten.

F i n a l l y, A N Z AC D a y h a s a p rofo u n d meaning to me as a day of remembrance, reflection, and gratitude. It is a day to remember the sacrifices of those who served our countr y, and we must never forget the value of their courage, mateship, and sacrifice. Let us not forget the fallen and support those who continue to serve while striving for a world in which peace and freedom prevail as we mark ANZAC Day. Lest we forget.

2024 ANZAC DAY: BARADINE KEYNOTE ADDRESS

Baradine serviceman’s great escape The amazing story of a local soldier’s daring getaway from Singapore during the Japanese invasion in WWII reads like a boy’s own adventure.

by LIZ CUTTS In his keynote address at the ANZAC Day service held at the Baradine Memorial Hall on Thursday, 25 April, Sam Maroulis shared the story of his grandfather, Stan Watkins, from 82 years ago.

“My grandfather, Stan Watkins – ‘ Watto’ or ‘the colonel’ – as he was known, was a long-time resident of Baradine and a returned serviceman,” Mr Maroulis said.

“As a child, I looked forward to our family trips to Baradine. In the early 80s I would shadow my grandfather as he went about his daily chores, cutting firewood, tinkering in the workshop and tending to his vast vegetable garden. I idolised him; he could fix anything and, as the years went by, he taught me to butcher a sheep, mend a leather b elt a nd overh au l a lawnmower.

“As with most children, I had an enquiring mind and would pepper him with questions from dawn to dusk. I was especially fascinated by his time in the army and would sit there mesmerised by his stories. It wasn’t until years later that I realised how much these stories meant to me and what an honour to spend that time with him.

“Stan joined the 3rd Australian R eser ve Motor Company on 7 March, 1941. With a strength of 400 men, their objective was to support the infantry build-up of the Australian 8th Division, specifically on the Malay Peninsula as tensions grew in the Pacific. “ They embarked for Singapore in April 1941.

A f t er s evera l we ek s of training, they were deployed to Malaya to prepare for the imminent Japanese invasion. The same day as the attack on Pe a rl H a rb ou r, the Japanese invaded

the pen i nsu la on 8 December. So swift was the Japanese advance that the 3rd motorised company was the first Australian company to see action in the Pacific, a week before any AIF battalions arrived at the front. They provided transport logistics and machine-g un cover for i n fa ntr y patrols.

Quickly, the Japs gained the upper hand and the 3rd mot or ised fou nd themselves more often than not in combat roles. “ H o p e l e s s l y outnumbered and outresourced, they fought bravely, but sustained heavy casualties. The company worked with every fighting brigade in western Malaya, drawing accolades from them on the unit’s fearless efforts to rescue infantrymen from being overwhelmed i n the fast-mov i ng withdrawal down the peninsula. One British officer asserted ‘without them we would have lost thousands of men’.

Attack “ I reca l l one stor y my grandfather would tell with a wry smile.

He was driving a truck loaded w ith suppl ies when suddenly they came under strafing attack from a Japanese Zero.

He and his mate, in the passenger side, thought the safest place to find cover was underneath the truck. They skidded t o a h a lt a nd d ive d underneath it, only to see it roll away down the hill because in the panic he had forgotten to put the hand brake on! The Japanese Zero pursued the truck and shot it to pieces, leaving Watto and his mate crouched down in the middle of the road 100 yards up the hill. A narrow escape!

“On another occasion they were driving trucks in convoy. A motorbike escort would go ahead and ensure the way was clear of enemy activity.

They descended a valley to a bridge over a river,

8 - Coonabarabran Times, Thursday, 2 May 2024

the bike ahead signalled t h e w ay w a s c l e a r.

Stan’s truck was second in the convoy and he was stretching his legs outside having a smoke, when the captain fold him to get a hurry along.

The first truck rolled onto the bridge, setting off a mine. The truck and its occupants, along with the scout, were all killed and Stan’s truck pulled up just in time on the bridge approach. After that, he thought it was always a good investment of his time to pull up for a smoke!

“It wasn’t long before they were issued orders to retreat to the stronghold of Singapore. This was essentially a fighting retreat and he said that they lost a lot of good men during this time.

The 2/19th and 2/29th batt a l ions su f fered casualties of over 75 per cent of their men during this retreat. They finally reached Singapore on 31 January aboard the Kinta, manning the ship after the crew deserted under constant air and g r o u nd at t a c k . T he Japanese ground forces entered Singapore on 8 February, a prelude to the largest British surrender in its military history. “ I remember t he emot ion i n my grandfather’s voice to this day, describing those days of utter chaos. He described how Singapore came under immense a i r at t ack a nd t hen over 20,000 Japanese t r o op s , who by now enjoyed air supremacy, stormed the island and overwhelmed an allied force nea rly 10 0,0 0 0 strong. The 1,000,000 locals had nowhere to go and suffered huge losses. Civilians were tortured, allied soldiers decapitated, prisoners burnt alive, hospital patients slaughtered where they lay, tens of thousands of Australian s old ier s wer e t a ken prisoner in seven days

of mayhem. Many never made it home, dying in Japanese prisoner camps or on the Thai Burma railway. “ My g r a nd f at her ’s biggest criticism was reserved for the Allied officers and commanders.

D u r i ng the battle, command broke down and communications were lost. The enemy gunfire and air bombardment over whel m i ng ; there was little food or fresh water and allied troops were exhausted from the months of withdrawal down the Malay peninsula. Only a few units were evacuated, one of them was the 2/3 reserve motorised company, needed in the defence of Java. However, the order came too late and only some of the men got off the island.

“The Japanese overran Singapore and Stan’s company surrendered to them on 15 February.

In the last days of the bat t le a nd w it h t he bot ched evacuation order, Stan described a situation that was close to anarchy. With no command structure left on Singapore and having seen the atrocities being committed, he was terrified of being taken prisoner.

Luck “He decided to chance his luck in Java and rejoin his unit. He swam out into the bay with a few others from his company, exhausted. After hours in the water and having survived a bomb attack in the ha rbou r, they commandeered a small boat. With little food or fresh water and motoring at night to avoid Japanese air attacks, they made it to Borneo, where they tried to survive behind enemy lines. “ S p o t t i n g a sm a l l vessel , they hat ched a plan to ambush the Japanese sailors, dispatch them and take control of the boat to escape. But luck was with them when it turned out to be a Dutch fishing vessel with a skipper keen to get out of the Jap a n e s e - c o nt r o l l e d waters. “ For days they hid in the bow of the boat, fearing capture by the Japanese. T hey were attacked from the air several times as they un know ingly sk i r ted around the Battle of the Java Sea on 27 February.

T he b o at wa s bad ly damaged and repairs were made using old fishing nets and anything else they could find.

“A month later they ber thed i n I nd ia – weak, dehydrated and barely alive. Stan was stretchered to a hospital wher e he st aye d for several weeks before being strong enough to be repatriated back to Australia. He arrived in Fremantle in late April 1942 via a circuitous route around the West African coast.”

Mr Maroulis said that on h is g ra nd father ’s

return to Sydney he ma r r ied M i n n ie Campbel l , i n Ju ne 1942, three days before the midget submarine attacked the harbour.

“He was keen to get back to the conflict, now being fought in Papua New Guinea,” added Mr Maroulis.

“Upon boarding the troop train heading north, the commanding officer, a f t er hea r i ng of the ordeal Stan had survived, sympathetically posted him to Darwin, where he spent the remainder of the war in transport operations. He had fond memories of army camps at Daly Waters and Pine Creek and had some amusing stories about those days, including the bombing raids on Darwin.

Casualties “The Third Motorised Company’s casualties in Malaya were heavy and few escaped Singapore; most of the company were taken prisoner. Stan would say his ‘chaps’, as he referred to them, ‘ had a terrible time’.

The casualty rate of the original fighting units in Malaya was close to 90 per cent by the end of the war.

“What struck me about my grandfather’s story and his company was that they were the first Australian unit to engage the Japanese. Those men , volu nteers a nd hastily put together and trained, bore the brunt of the best well-trained crack enemy units of the 25th Imperial guards; elite professional soldiers

at their strongest. But the Australians, suffering heav y losses and imprisonment leading to a very high attrition rate, fought bravely against massive odds.

“Stan was discharged f r om the A rmy on 2 November, 1945 having s e r v e d 17 0 2 d a y s , i n c l u d i n g 3 9 8 d ay s overseas.

“This summary glosses over a lot of the hardships and deprivations; we owe a lot to men like Stan and those of his company.

“I doubt I would show the same courage under fire or the same humility and good nature in the aftermath. But every day I am grateful for the legacy of the men and women that fought and died for the freedom we enjoy today.”

AROUND THE SCHOOLS Coonabarabran Public We have returned with a big bang at CPS. And first to arrive were the Wild Robots. 5-6 Mirri have been studying the book The Wild Robot, by Peter Brown, a new text for the new curriculum for stage three classes across NSW. They had such a good time with this book as they travelled with Roz throughout the island she landed on, and watched her develop the many friendships that she formed along

the way.

As part of their studies on the Wild Robot they had to complete an assignment at home.

They had to design their own robot and make it and then write a narrative story that featured their robot as a main character.

The ANZAC Day march down John Street, Coonabarabran, saw a big turnout from CPS students and staff, led by our principal Mrs

Lucy Evans and our very own hero, returned soldier Danny Rogers.

Our leaders proudly participated in the service, both Sophia Leedham and Keanu Rogers reading to an attentive gathering of local and visiting community members who went to pay their respects to our service men and women.

On the last day of term Mrs Evans announced

the winners of the writing competition, which saw students win resource prizes for their classrooms, donated by the Variety Club Bash.

Clayton Savage and Anika Bowmaker were among some of the wonderful entries.

Now, as the weather cools down and the autumnal colours deepen, we are all looking forward to a productive and engaging term of learning.

Clayton Savage won prizes for his classroom, courtesy of the Variety Bash Club.

Expo and Jockey Club for WORD WORD partner up for success

Now the entries have closed for the 2024 North West Equestrian Expo, the major logistic job of preparing the grounds, allocating stables and camping areas is well under way.

The Coonabarabran Jockey Club works with t he E x p o c om m it t e e in providing camping a nd s t a bl i n g at t he racecourse. In addition to using existing spare stables a nd ya rds, por table stables a nd a por table shower block a re brought in to keep the 200 riders and thei r families comfortable during the week-long event.

Jo ckey Club members, Kerry Vallette and Stewart R odgers ma ke su re campers are positioned in the betting area and

c a r pa rk ne a r t hei r horses where possible.

Some of the big schools like Kinross and Farrer a re reg u la r campers at the racecourse, in addition to Calrossy, which hires the RDA Hall and stables.

T he i nside of the racecourse is used for competition on Saturday for Combined Training, Monday Dressage, with up t o e i g ht a r e n a s , and Tuesday Hacking.

Jockey Club members spend ma ny hou rs preparing the area and each year the ground i mpr o v e s t h a n k s t o

thei r ded ication a nd commitment.

The main racetrack is used for the running phase of the Pentathlon on Saturday afternoon, w it h t he r ac e c ou r s e a hive of activ ity throughout the whole event.

The Jockey Club has a lw ay s s p o n s o r e d a rug dur ing the Expo and it was with great pleasu re E xpo was a bl e t o s upp o r t t he C o on a ba r a br a n C up meeting by sponsoring a race and donating a trophy rug. “ We va lue the

relationship we have built with the Jockey Club,” said Expo chairman, Kevin Sharp.

“Having this facility available for competition and camping has allowed us to extend our program and offer more options for riders, as the showg r ou nd’s main arena is used to full capacity during the event.”

Spectators are welcome to watch the events during Expo at both the showground and racecourse; entry is free.

In this interview series, we sit down with locals for a quickfire chat. Then we ask them, “Who should we talk to next?”

And so the chain continues...

Do you have a nickname? Paddy, I suppose.

H o w d i d yo u co m e t o l i ve i n Coonabarabran? I came over to Australia in 2011 and lived in Bathurst.

I moved up here in 2014 with my wife, Michelle.

Where would people recognise your face? Roach’s Hardware I would say.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? I had a few things going on – a footballer was one of them. I always liked doing things with my hands – building, engineering.

What ’s the most interesting job you’ve ever had? When I lived back home, I worked at a drinks’ factory in Ireland. I was on maintenance and fixed all the machines.

You’ve had a stressful day – what’s your way of winding down? Sitting down with the family, watching TV and a nice cup of tea.

How would your friends and family describe you in three words? Quiet, kind.

What are your favourite places to visit on a road trip? I like coastal towns, but then, at the same time, I f ind smal l countr y towns ver y interesting.

I f you h a d a n a n i m a l o r p l a n t renamed in your honour, what would you want to carry your name? New Yorkshire Paddy.

What's one totally irrational fear that you have? Extreme heights – if I go up to a certain level, maybe anything over 30 foot, I don’t feel safe and I get agitated.

Do you have a favourite community event or group? I do play the six-aside soccer summer sixes.

Best thing about living in Coonabarabran? I’d say first and foremost it would be the people.

Genuine people here.

If you could have any superpower w h a t w o u l d i t b e? W h a teve r Super man has – strength, or something like that.

Have you read any good books or watched any good movies lately?

Wa tc h e d a co u p l e o f m ov i e s recently. I rewatched a few of the old 80’s and 90’s movies – Ferris Bueller, The Goonies.

What are the top three items on your bucket list? I’d like to travel with my wife around Europe. A lot of interesting cities and places there.

Do you have a hidden talent? Or what is something people might not know about you? Certainly not.

WEATHER WATCH As the month of April d r aws t o a c lo s e , it continues to be hotter a nd v e r y d r y a l o n g most of the West er n Au s t r a l i a c o a s t l i ne , from Port Hedland to just south of Perth.

Carnar von, with a mean-ma x imum t emp er at u r e of 3 3 .7 degrees, will certainly have its hottest-ever

April in 142 years of records.

The previous hottest Apr i ls at Ca r na r von were in 1890 and 1897.

These two wetter Aprils did set a wetter-thanaverage winter in both Victoria and NSW. Perth continued to be much hotter and drier during April. The total rainfall at Perth from

October through to the end of April was only 2 2 . 8m ms , e a si ly the driest on record. The pr e v iou s d r ie s t wa s 57mms in 1911-12.

My grandson Benjamin Nelson, who lives in Cairns, told me that further heavy rain has fallen there during A pr i l – 3 2 4 m ms , on top of 891mms during March. This makes a total of 1315mms during both March and April i n Ca i r n s. T h i s wa s the fourth wettest on record behind 1958mms in 1887, 1475mms in 1894, and 2228mms in 1911.

Despite well-aboveaverage ra i n fa l l of 130mms in Melbourne,

which did make it the coldest Apr i l there since 1996, and aboveaverage ra i n fa l l at many centres including Coonabarabran, Dubbo, Parkes and Moree du r i ng Apr i l , it was very dry in north-east Victoria over the last three weeks of April.

Only 0.2mms has fallen around Wa n g a r at t a s i n c e 9 April, the driest since 1945 and before that in 1927 and 1923.

Other exceptionally dry three-week periods i n Apr i l o c cu r red i n 1902, 1910, 1941, and 1981.

It w ill be a wet winter looking at these episodes.

While premiership silverwear is not up for grabs in this match, the Terriers and Roosters will be playing for the timehonoured Boronia Cup, and Cobar would like nothing better than to have it strapped into the front seat of their bus on the return journey come Saturday night, whi le the Terriers will be going tooth and nail to retain it.

In other games, both the Na r rom i ne Jets and the Gilgandra Panthers will be looking to bounce back from their respective heavy defeats last Saturday w hen they clash at Narromine, while Coolah w i l l be out to secu re an away win when they face the difficult assignment of upending the Coonamble Bears at Coonamble.

Golfers tree-mendous challenges on course WEDNESDAY GOLF Wednesday, 24 April On Wednesday 17 April, an energetic group of ladies took to the course armed with great expectations of playing good golf.

All went well, with the girls hitting long, but not so straight, shots. There were a lot of bruised trees that, we swear, leaned their branches out across the fairway – and even the trunks drawing in big breaths to swell their size!

Elaine Gardiner and Trish Lithgow, two of our new players, are showing excellent potential for A-Grade status. Elaine’s drive off the 13th tee ended up in Mr McEvoy’s paddock. Lesson – don’t use Big Bertha on the 13th!

Scores were very close, with the eventual winner being Doreen Searle, scoring 34 points, closely followed by Steve Jones and Lou Coulton, 33 points.

Wednesday, 17 April The previous week,

17 April, six hardy souls gambled with the weather – and all went well for 12 holes, then the weatherman showed his wicked sense of humour.

When, at the furthermost hole from the club house, he let the clouds drop torrential rain on to the ladies! Not only heavy rain but added, for a bit of drama, lightning and thunder.

The girls made a scatter for shelter and arrived at the club house absolutely soaked to the skin.

The event was changed to a nine-hole competition, which was won by Kat Christoff with the remarkable score of 24 points.

Kat has taken well to this particular sport, showing remarkable skill, losing 12 shots off her handicap in a very short time.

Runner-up went to Michelle Murphy on a three-way count back from Cis Bruce and Elaine Gardiner, all

scoring 15 points.

We welcome back Cis Bruce, Elaine Gardiner and Michelle Murphy.

Stableford Five o f o ur la die s competed in the stableford event on Sunday, 28 April, with three of our new players taking home the prizes – Kat Christoff with 39 points, and Carmel Munns and Elaine Gardiner, both scoring 30 points. Wonderful to see these ladies playing so well. Congratulations.

Yesterday, 1 May, we competed in stableford event in conjunction with the VWGANSW Country Championships. Results in next week’s Times.

Charity Golf Day The ladies had the pleasure of presenting a cheque to the local Cancer Support Group, being the takings from our annual Charity Golf Day. This was the 30th consecutive year that the golfing ladies have conducted this charity day for the local Cancer Support group and it was a wonderful result.

We hope for bigger and better next year.

Also, I overlooked thanking our golfing ladies for their fabulous cooking skills.

The luncheon was outstanding. Well done all who provided the meal.

Humour A lady was visiting her doctor for her annual check-up and was asked about her general health and exercise program.

She stated that she was very much the outdoor girl and frequently spent hours walking over tough terrain, up rock slopes, across deep gullies, often battling through sand troughs, at times orienteering her way back to civilisation.

“I see,” he said, “so you’re a bush walker?”

“No, I play golf!”

Unicorns stampede over Bears The opening round of the 2024 Castlereagh League competition has thrown up some interesting results in first-grade, with big wins going to the Coonabarabran Unicorns, Cobar Roosters and the Coolah ‘Roos, while defending premiers, the Gulgong Terriers, managed to just get home in a thrilling game against the Baradine Magpies.

In a high-scoring game, the Coonabarabran Unicorns started their 2024 campaign with a strong win over their arch rivals, the Coonamble Bears, taking the encounter 48 points to 30.

Magpies v Terriers Meanwhile, down the road at Baradine the 2023 premiers, the Gulgong Bull Terriers only just got away with a 24 to 20 win over the Baradine Magpies in what was a very hard-fought match.

Following the Magpies recent good form in trials and at the Castlereagh Knockout, many thought that the black and whites would get the win in ‘Magpie Land’ – and they very nearly did, just falling short in what would have been a major boost to their morale for the 2024 season.

But the fun doesn’t stop on Friday.

There’s plenty to do across the weekend, including fireworks and roving entertainment, and ending the Saturday night with live music at the bar.

If you’re interested in horses,

there are a whole range of equine events across the weekend.

Or, if you prefer the agricultural side of the show, there’s stud cattle judging on Saturday, as well as a shearing demonstration at about 1.30pm on the same day.

Local creatives feature prominently as well, with a range of artistic sections and displays.

Traditionally, the pavilions are packed with entries across art, craft, photography, cooking and preserves, decorated cakes, home produce, horticulture and poultry.

Be sure to see the stunning floral entries in the refreshed horticulture pavilion.

The show society is reminding people to use the Ugoa Street entrance to the show, with ample parking available.

Entrance via the Wukawa Street gate is typically reserved for show exhibitors and officials only.

Domonique Wyse, who was sashed as the winner in March, will open the festivities in Narrabri on Friday night.

“It’s an honour to open the show,” Domonique said when attending Narrabri’s recent young woman competition cocktail function held at The Exchange.

Domonique has been busy on the North West show circuit, attending Gunnedah and Moree shows recently, however, this weekend’s formalities in Narrabri mark her first official show opening since winning the top NSW Young Woman title.

“Given her recent accomplishment, it’s fitting that she opens our 2024 show,” Narrabri Show

vice president Bec Cope said.

In addition to opening the festivities, Domonique will also be present to congratulate Narrabri Show Society’s three newest life members - Bec Cope, Kevin Lawty and Fiona Orman - who will officially receive their honours on the night.

Domonique is looking forward to seeing the pavilion entries, particularly in agriculture given Narrabri Show’s strong ag ties.

The opening ceremony will be held in the rodeo arena at 6.30pm on Friday night.

Family-owned Gunnedah business celebrates 11 years of operating wonderful knick – knacks, leadlight lamps, statues, rugs to make your house a home.

“The way we think in business is at BTS we would rather do five things really well than have our finger in too many pies and cut corners.

“When we do a job, we treat every customer as if it was our own home, so the finished product has to be 110 per cent every time.”

Sally emphasised that while everyone can make mistakes, being local means having a follow up service is vital and helping is never out of the question.

Only recently a customer rang BTS Blinds, concerned her lock may have been tampered with.

Barry and Tom went out, had a look, and that is one of the best reasons to shop local.

“A Tamworth business would

not do that without charging a service fee,” Sally said.

“At the end of the day, we look

after our customers, and they look after us.

“Simple.”

Mum and Dad were here as well as my Mum. “And Barry’s kids, so it was a no brainer, she said.

“Once we came back, we found there was definitely a need for good old fashion service, honesty and great products. So that is what we did.

“And it is as simple as that.

“We opened with Blinds & Awnings, now we do every indoor blind available and outdoor awnings available.

“We have grown as a business introducing security doors and screens, we are a licenced agent not only to sell but to install security doors and screens.

The beauty of walking into BTS Blinds & Awnings, is that you are supporting a family owned and run business.

Sally and Barry Snape started BTS Blinds & Awnings 11 years ago, and two years ago their son Thomas stepped up and joined the team.

Opening the store in 2013 was the best of both worlds as retail has been in Sally’s blood for more than 38 years and Barry was able to leave the mines and use his trade in pursuit of a better work and family life balance.

After spending time in Tamworth and Narrabri, Sally knew they needed to be back in Gunnedah.

“We are born and bred here,” she said.

“Our main aim was to always come back to Gunnedah because of family and friends. Barry’s

Reflecting on 20 years of Moree on a Plate MARKETPLACE From celebrity chefs sunbaking half nude in the garden, to arranging reiki for a stressed producer on site – the antics behind-thescenes of Moree on a Plate are almost as iconic as the festival itself.

What started as a lightbulb moment between two can-do Moree women 20 years ago is today one of the longest running, volunteer-led regional festivals in Australia.

The brainchild of Margi Kirkby and Jenni Birch whilst in the early stages of setting up their olive oil business, Gwydir Grove, Margi smiles that there have been plenty of stories to tell along the way.

Margi, who remains a tireless driving force behind the festival, laughs that starting a food and wine festival from scratch was perhaps an ill thought-through idea.

“We were driving home from selling Gwydir Grove at an event in Tamworth, and we said ‘we can do this in Moree!, easy!’ Silly us really!”

Well before Paddock to Plate was a buzzword, Margi and Jenni had an ambitious vision to celebrate local produce, particularly the boutique markets born from the Moree Plains.

Today it’s a vision well and truly realised.

“During that first year we called on friends, family – anyone who

could help, and it was a very humble beginning.”

No longer a local farmers market, today Moree on a Plate is a master showcase of food, wine and community, incorporating local musicians, celebrity chefs, plein air artists, a lighthearted local barbecue competition, and children’s entertainment.

And there have been many learnings along the way.

“There was one year we realised last minute we didn’t have cupcakes for the cupcake decorating in Kids Korner – Ros Van Dongen and Bethany Kelly stayed up into the early hours baking hundreds of cupcakes – we never made that mistake again!”

Margi is responsible for organising the celebrity chefs, and often hosts them in her home.

“One celebrity chef was so relaxed in our garden she stripped down to her underwear to sunbake, I had to redirect visitors that day away from the garden!”

Whether it is managing the chef arriving hungover from Rockhampton Beef Week, which precedes Moree on a Plate, or the producer with a migraine requested a reiki session – the tireless volunteers of Moree on a Plate never fail to deliver.

“If I was 20 years younger I’d do it all over again,” Margi smiles. “Seeing the community come together, the small producers’ eyes’ light up

when they sell out of items, and the consumers rave about what is in our region.”

“The tensions of whether the event will be a success, the months of organisation, and the back-breaking exhaustion of bumping in and bumping out – it takes a tribe, but seeing the thrill of the producers and the visitors makes it all worthwhile.”

This year Moree will welcome celebrity chef Matt Golinski, who will prepare three dishes throughout the day using locally sourced fare.

Matt joins a long list of chefs who have visited Moree on a Plate, the first being Peter Howard, as well as Fast Ed, Ben O’Donoghue, Alastair McLeod, Marion Grasby, Lyndey Milan, Dominque Rizzo, Christine Manfield, and Mark Olive.

This year, to mark 20 years, the festival will return to the grounds of Moree Racecourse, having been held at the local high school for the past 15 years.

The move marks a nostalgic nod to those early years, and an opportunity to continue to grow the festival into the future on a larger site.

Entry to Moree on a Plate remains a gold coin donation, ensuring it’s an event the whole community can enjoy, with gates open from 10am to 4pm on Saturday, May 11.

See more on Moree on a Plate in next week’s North Western Guide.
