Grant to upgrade Coona Showground surface The Coonabarabran Showground will receive $77,000 of funding and it could be just the start of the cash flow. by CHRIS WARD St at e M i n ist er for L a nd s a nd Wat e r, Kev i n A nderson was i n C o on aba r abr a n on M o nd ay t o m a ke t he announcement and, after a quick tour of the showground facility, he identified a number of areas that would benefit from further funding. “ L o ok , I t h i n k t he facilities are good, but like any showground there’s always work to do, like the pavilion – it could do with some work as well as the kitchen, so that might be the next project,” he said. “ Yo u n e e d a g o o d kitchen and you need good toilets, so I reckon that might be an opportunity to see what we can do to support them there.” M o nd ay ’s f u nd i n g a n nou nc ement me a n s Coonabarabran’s main showground arena will be able to be resurfaced and upgraded, improving safety. M r A nderson sa id the surface had become slippery and dangerous. “…these days, stock and equine safety and welfare is paramount, so people won’t bring stock or horses or whatever it may be if the facilities aren’t safe,
so that’s what this funding will do,” he said. “The upgrade will allow equestrian sports people, pony club members and camp drafters to train and compete with confidence, as they focus on developing and demonstrating their impressive skills.” The grant money was made available through the Crown Reser ve Improvement Fund. Forgotten fluoride During the whirlwind visit Mr Anderson was quizzed on fluoridisation of the town’s drinking water. Coonabarabran hasn’t had f luor ide i n the drinking water since 2014, when t he i n s t r u ment delivering the chemical broke down. Initially Mr Anderson said it was a matter for local councils, but eventually offered to “double back through” to find out where the situation is up to and update Council. T he C o on abarabran T im e s h a s pr ev iou sly reported on the matter, with a Council spokesperson claiming they were waiting on the S t at e G over n ment t o provide the funding for the updated fluoride delivery equipment to be installed.

B ut wh i le G ome r oi sp oke sp er s on S uel ly n Tighe said Mr Anderson actually spoke with her, she said she couldn’t help but feel undercut. “We [Gomeroi people] are his constituents as well,” she said. “On one level he came over and at least spoke with us, but we literally only got one minute. “We weren’t important enough for him to spend time with us and there was no real satisfactory answer as to why Gomeroi p e ople h ave not b e en involved. “During the last two visits we have been left out, we haven’t even been invited and it’s disgusting. “For some reason they don’t treat us as state constituents. “A nd when you look even deeper, Aboriginal p e o pl e c o me up h e r e and do work for the dole by painting fences and tidying up and yet we’re
Cash splash for local roads It’s good news all round when it comes to the roads in our region. by CHRIS WARD B oth the nor th a nd south entrances to Coonabarabran received some much-needed repair work earlier in the week. Traffic control precautions and detours were in place for motorists wh i le Wa r r u m bu n g le Shire Council completed the works. Once finished, the work should provide visitors to town a much smoother entrance and a better experience navigating our roads. In more good news, on Thursday, 2 February the NSW Liberal and Nationals Government announced more funding to go towards fixing local roads. T he B a r won r eg ion will receive $54 million f rom the L oca l R oads Repair Program, with the Warrumbungle Shire set to receive over $4.5 million
from that funding. T hat money will go towards fixing 2518 kilometres of road and is on top of the vast amount of Natural Disaster Funding that has already been approved. Warrumbungle Shire Council mayor, Cr Ambrose Doolan said not only was it fantastic news for the Shire, but he credited Council staff for their efforts in applying for the variety of different funding. “It’s really not an easy process at all,” Cr Doolan said. “ Every pot hole and hazard had to be identified and costed. It was a big job and hats off to the team that were able to achieve getting that funding. “They only had 10 days to apply for that latest round and they were successful in getting $4.5 million. “The message to our rate payers and road users now
is it will take time to get it all done, but by the time it’s finished – and thanks to this latest lot of funding – our roads should be in excellent condition.” W i t h t h e d i f f e r e nt funding approvals, Warrumbungle Shire will have close to $18 million extra to spend on top of its annual budget of just over $12 million. A run down of the funding and money to be spent on roads: Natural disaster funding applications: $12,501,911*. So far, $6,446,230.51 has been approved. Pothole fund ing $864,683.

the m i n i ng g ia nt was acting within its licence and approva ls, but he evaded the question of the proposed expansion Santos has planned for upwards of 800 gas wells within the forest. “So, in terms of protecting prime ag r icu ltu ra l la nd a nd protecting water sources, water is paramount so any threat to water is a serious
concern for me and if there are any identified threats to those water sources we investigate to make sure that it is protected,” Mr Anderson said. “ T he Na r r a br i G a s project has the licence approvals to operate and they are doing that within their licence approvals. “In terms of coal seam gas, what they do is they have a licence to operate

Thefts prompt police warning Police are warning residents to lock it or lose it following an increase in thefts. by CHRIS WARD Police say they have noticed an increase in br e a k a nd e nt e r a nd thefts across the Shire and have urged residents t o conti nue ta k i ng necessary precautions. While officer in charge of the northern sector, Acting Inspector Jason Conolly said police would continue to do their best to disrupt and catch thieves, he s a id t her e wa s a n element of responsibility on residents. “ T here have been sp orad ic br e a k , ent er and steal offences across the Shire under investigation, as well as fuel thefts that are still

Laine takes ‘big’ school in his stride The first day of Kindergarten can be more daunting for parents than their kids. by CHRIS WARD There doesn’t seem to be much of an emotional middle ground for parents at this time of the year when it comes to sending their offspring to school. It’s either a celebration or an emotional roller coaster. Talisha Kuras predicts it will be the latter for he r a s s he env i s ion s waving goodbye to her son, Laine Ritchie, on his first day of kindergarten at St Lawrence’s Catholic Primary School. But she doesn’t expect Laine to reciprocate those feelings. “ I ’m ne r v ou s , w it h Laine being my only child. This is a first for us both, I’ll definitely be emotional on the day,” she explained. “Laine’s already excited though. He did the Little L aw r ie s pr og r a m at the end of last year and loved it, so I think he will transition well. “ He’ l l love lea r n ing new th i ngs, he’s ver y inquisitive. “ He ’s super exc it ed about wearing his uniform and being a ‘big’ school boy.” Ms Kuras said from her
experience with the Little Lawries program and from talking to other parents she was happy with her choice of school, which she said was “welcoming, child focused and community minded.” While Ms Kuras expects
Laine to enjoy his time in Kindy, she admitted there were some aspects he would likely struggle with. “Our biggest challenge I think will be getting Laine out of holiday mode,” she laughed. “He’s not going to like
waking up early.” W hen L aine isn’t at scho ol M s Ku ras sa id he will likely be found drawing, playing outside, s w i m m i n g or pl ay i n g h is favou r ite games – Sonic the Hedgehog or Minecraft.
Laine Ritchie is excited to be starting school at St Lawrence’s in Coonabarabran this week.

“ I ’m glad he’s being raised on Country and with his family here in Coonabarabran,” she said. “ But Coonabarabran could definitely do with more prog rams and activities centred around younger kids.”

v olu nt e e r wo rk w it h the Ba rad ine A ged Care committee, Paul was recognised for his commitment to keep a resident doctor in the town and the medical centre open. He was a prime mover in acquiring the funding needed t o pu rchase the med ica l centre, giving the community an attractive package with which to recruit and retain a permanent resident medical practitioner in the commun ity. However, d u e t o t h e i s o l at i o n o f B a r ad i ne a nd t he ongoing shor tage of rural doctors, it has been a c on st a nt ch a l lenge to attract and keep a general practitioner. Every time the search was on for a new doctor, Paul has looked at ways to pull out all stops to find and seek a s u it a bl e appl i c a nt knowing full well that a town without a doctor c a n h av e d i s a s t r o u s economic outcomes. In the past 12 months, Pau l has led negotiations t o establish an improved, appea ling package to keep the current doctor
in the town, following fe a r s t he do c t or a nd his family would leave. Pau l has been at the forefront of lodging new grant applications for upgrades to the doctor residence and medical centre. He continues to take every opportunity t o f u nd ra ise for the not-for-profit Aged Care Committee.

Nandi Park back to full glory I w i s h t o u s e y ou r c o l u m n t o p u bl i c a l l y than k and sincerely congratulate the Shire employees for the beautiful state of Nandi Park. It’s been a huge problem the past few years with constant rain, but now it’s back to its full glory. Wonderful to see, many thanks to all concerned. Yours etc., Chris Evans Coonabarabran 2357 (06.02.2023) Overgown footpaths, lost pygmies W ho i s r e s p o n s i ble for the sa fe upkeep of footpaths - so called - in Coonabarabran? I am very concerned... there is a tribe of pygmies lost in the grass of the footpath (?) on the corner of Cassilis and Horsley Streets. Who knows what lurks in the depths of the long, long grass. To whom shou ld I approach for assistance? Is th is a matter for t he Volu nt e er R e s c ue agencies? Or, is this a matter for the Warrumbungle Shire Council? Yours etc., A concerned rate payer Name and address suppli ed but withh eld upon request Coonabarabran 2357 (31.01.2023) Deputy Premier’s glaring errors Thank you to Allison Reynolds for her excellent
letter in the last edition of the Coona T imes re c omments made by Deputy P remier Toole and reported in ‘Toole’s v isit overshadowed by CSG opponents’. Ms Reynolds is completely correct when she rebuts Toole’s comments about a “gas shortage”. Australia is i nd e e d ‘ s w i m m i n g i n gas’, but the gas industry chooses not to supply our domestic ma rket w ith OUR gas at reasonable prices. In 2020-2021 Australia produced 5,730 petajoules of gas and 4,314 pj were exported, leav ing only 113 6 pj for a l l u s e s domestically. In fact, the LNG plants use more gas within their plant just to convert gas to liquid for export and r u n t he pl a nt (4 3 3 pj ) than all of Australian manufacturing (408pj). Use for Australian electricity generation is very small, just 390pj. We need a gas reservation policy for use in Australia t o en su r e supply a nd reduce costs. It’s done in Western Australia and shou ld h app en ac r o s s Australia. There is no gas shortage, just a greedy gas cartel making huge profits at our expense. H o we v e r, M r T o o l e made other glaring errors i n h i s c om ment s th at need correction. 1. He claimed the “only PE L s remaining support the Narrabri Gas Project”…not true. PEL 1 remains and covers large par ts of the L iverpool Plains. The Narrabri Gas

project has no approval for gas wells in PEL1. Last week there were Santos contracted Seismic Testing vehicles on Milroy Road, Gunnedah a nd p ol ic e wer e u s e d t o clea r fa rmers f r om the road adjoining their proper ties who were protesting. 2. M r Toole claimed ther e wer e “st r i ngent precautions” and “hundreds of conditions” placed on the Santos CSG project in the Pilliga by the Planning Department to protect the environment. This is little more than ‘spin’ and we have recently seen that these conditions can be waved aside by the Planning Depa r tment. Despit e c ond it ion s wor d i ng ‘a solution for the disposal of salt waste MUST be in place before commencing Phase 1’, approval has been g iven to beg in Phase 1 of the project, despite there being no satisfactory solution to the salt d isposa l. T he Pl a n n i ng D epa r tment ca n appa rently va r y conditions with the stroke of a pen at the behest of Santos. 3. Mr Toole also states “we’ve got to protect the env i ron ment.” T h is is but a hollow statement be c au s e t he bigge st threat to our environment and economy is that posed by the impacts of extreme weather caused by climate change. Opening up new gas fields is the equ iva lent of p ou r i ng petrol on a fire. It can only increase the problem of methane and carbon
emissions. I n 2 0 21 t he I nt er n at ion a l E ner g y Agency released a report on the narrow pathway to net zero emissions by 2050. A summary can be found at: https: //www. iea.org/reports/net-zeroby-2050 This report concluded that to reach Net Zero 2050 we must have ‘No new o i l o r g a s f ie ld s approved for development and no new coal mines or extensions by the end of 2021’. Check the date please! T he r e a r e mu lt iple problems with the Na r r abr i G a s P r oje c t and no twisting of the facts by the deputy premier w i l l change that. Reserve Australian gas for Australian needs and transition away from methane use ASAP. Yours etc., Rosemary Vass (Friends of the Pilliga) Coonabarabran 2357 (05.02.2023) In praise of health services Since Aug ust 2022 until now, I have had a few significant and scary health problems. All is going well now, thanks to the amazing health services across Australia. I spent time in Coonabarabran Hospital. Coolah Hospital and John Hunter. At various times I had to be transported to and from these hospitals by pat ient tra nspor t facilities. I was admitted into Coonabarabran Hospital and had to wait until a
bed could be found for me at John Hunter Hospital. T h e nu r s e s , d o c t o r s , cleaners, kitchen staff, everyone impressed me so much with their amazing k n o wl e d g e , c o u r t e s y, respect, and ca re. I felt safe. I spent a few days at Coonabarabran Hospital, linked up with intravenous antibiotics until a bed could be found in John Hunter Hospital. All the hospitals are full, from not only the usual needs of people, but also from the people who have been effected by C OV I D. T herefore, the hospitals are full. Coonabarabran Hospital made sure that when a bed was available at John Hunter I was ready to go First I had to be transported to Coonabarabran Airport by patient transport to be flown to John Hunter i n a sma l l jet r u n by Air Med. The nurse and pilot on board had been work i ng si nce 2 .0 0am t r a n sp or t i ng pat ient s to various hospitals in Cairns, Toowoomba and Brisbane. I was their last transport for the day. We arrived at W i l l i a mt ow n A i r p o r t a f ter a n hou r a nd I was then taken to John Hu nt er Hospita l by Air Med ambulance for surgery. I arrived at John Hunter Hospital and did not have to wait. I was taken immediately out of the ambu la nce a nd put into the Orthopaedic Trauma Ward. After my operation and treatment I spent quite a while at John Hunter then
had to be transpor ted back to Coonabarabran H o s pit a l , but n o b e d was available. However, a bed was available at Coolah Hospital so I was transported by jet again, this time to Wellington A irport. I didn’t know there was an airport in Wellington until then. We w e r e w e l c o m e d by a cow a nd a nother a mbu l a nc e , t h i s t i me f rom O ra nge, wh ich transported me to Coolah, over all the potholes from the f loods and washedaway bridges. C oola h is a g reat ho spit a l . Mo der n a nd with learned staff. I had a room to myself for a few days. Didn’t have to share a shower or toilet and the food was great. I also had a large f lat screen T V and a view of plants in a courtyard. Eventua l ly I was t a ken bac k by D ubb o Pat ient T ra n sp or t , t o Coonabarabran Hospital. I stayed a few days and then was discharged, but I had to get intravenous antibiotics twice a day. I wou ld go up ever y morning and night and be hooked up to get the IV. This was over Christmas too. I am now on ora l antibiotics for 8-12 weeks. A ll staff in each hospital, were amazing. They were so knowledgeable, sociable, didn’t treat you like an idiot, learnt things if they didn’t know something. They were all working double shifts and most had, had COVID at some time. Some more than others.
It seemed u n fa i r t o m e t h at h e a l t h s t a f f who got COVID, had to take unpaid time off and isolate, while the rest of the community could have COV I D and sti l l walk around and go to work or shop without any isolation. The people who have been looking after us all for the last two years and most likely the next two, are worn out, but from somewhere they get this energy to treat and care for a person from the country like me. The patient transport people, the ones on the ground and in the air are all sharing the load. The log istics of organising the planes, helicopters, ambulance etc., is amazing. I would not have known about this unless I had experienced it. All the companies including the Royal Flying Doctor Service and Red Cross are all working together to provide the best care. Sure we have problems in the health-care system, but we also have had the worse health pandemic since the end of World War One. Medicare didn’t factor that in when it was established. I do not have private health care insurance. I am 75 years old and have an aged pension, but I was treated like a queen. T ha n k you for sav i ng my life. Yours etc., Pam Stein Coonabarabran 2357 (02.02.2023)

RIOT program launched at Coona High On Monday, 6 February psychologist and former teacher Michael Hawton visited Coonabarabran High School to deliver a free session to local parents outlining strategies to help support children who were experiencing mild to moderate-level anxiety. by JIMMY WHALAN The main focus of the seminar was to provide guidance around building resilience and reducing anxiety in teenage children through “seemingly modest” changes at home. These strategies have also been implemented as professional learning for all teaching staff who will help deliver the RIOT (Resilience In Our Teens) program to all students at Coonabarabran High this year. This seminar comes after a 2020 inquiry by the Australian Productivity Commission revealed that teenage anxiety had been worsening. Since the inquir y, rates have worsened – the impacts of a global pandemic, bushfires and flooding have placed an increased demand on the mental-health sector, with over 30 per cent of psychologists having closed their books to new patients. The inquiry recommended that steps should be taken to reduce anxiety in young people early on to prevent the issue from progressing further. It was found that parent-led interventions had proven to be an effective treatment over time, provided they had the proper knowledge on how to help their children. More details about the RIOT program, including future events and parent and family resources, will be made available soon. 6 - Coonabarabran Times, Thursday, 9th February 2023
Michael Hawton, pictured with Coonabarabran High School deputy principal, Duncan Graham, and principal, Mary Doolan, has also recently published a book called The Anxiety Coach which is a handbook full of simple and effective strategies for managing anxious feelings in children.
Land grab limits local buyers Property ownership dreams are being squashed, with vacant acreages and small farms in the area becoming increasingly difficult to find and afford. by CHRIS WARD W h i le the g reat Aussie dream of owning your own home is becoming more d i f f icult as the yea rs roll on , there’s a nother major objective that’s all but been extinguished. The idea of owning your own parcel of land, whether it be a small acreage block, a hobby farm or an established large-scale farm has almost disappeared for the average Aussie as dema nd pushes pr ic e s up a nd i nc r e a si ng interest rates hit hard. In fact, a quick internet search will uncover a nu m b e r o f home s w it h i n the C oonaba rabran and Warrumbungle Shire areas for sale, but next to no vacant acreage listings. Real estate and livestock agent, David Grant said he has witnessed demand drive prices sky high over the past three years in particular. He said small acreage farms around the area were few and far between. “Well, the likes of Gunnedah and Mudgee sold out of those types of properties and, of course, priced a lot of people out of those markets, so people started looking further afield for more value for money,” Mr Grant explained. “ I noticed it start about three years ago when demand picked up quite a bit more. “ People were pr iced out of those areas so they came looking here and saw we have
a beautiful town and started buying up properties. “ That drive and demand has seen prices sky rocket in our area.” Mr Grant said a small 20 to 30 acre block will now set buyers back anywhere between $5 0 0,0 0 0 and $8 0 0,0 0 0 depending on its usability. Binnaway Real Estate and stock and station agent, Larry Tolmie said in the current climate only buyers downsizing or coming from major cities with large amounts of capital beh i nd them were able t o afford the prices for lifestyle or hobby farm blocks in the local area. He currently has one listing available: a 179-acre property just outside of Binnaway with an asking price of $412,000. In just a matter of days of it being on the market he received many enquiries and even an offer on the property. M r Tolmie sa id a lot of interest had come from the Central Coast and the offer had come from Melbourne. “ W hen you look at it, it doesn’t have a house a nd there’s no power,” he said. “By the time you put a home on it and power you’re not getting much change out of $1 million. “ To be able to afford the repayments most of that would likely need to be paid in cash, hence people are selling up in the city and buying out here. “ S o, for the average Australian it’s really out of their reach.”

NEW BIZ SPOTLIGHT
Sydney Classic Car Restoration A highly-regarded classic car restoration business has relocated to Coonabarabran, with pride in craftmanship and classic restoration techniques at the core of the operation. You were an es t a b l i s h e d b us i n es s i n Syd n ey. W h a t prompted you to move to Coonabarabran? We purchased a block of land three years ago as we were familiar with the area from previous employment and always saw ourselves moving a n d l i v i n g o u t h e re. Sydney was great for the establishment of business and we have secured a fantastic customer base, along with their ongoing support, so it was an easy decision to make the move. Te l l u s a b o u t yo u r business and the services you offer? We are an automotive resto ration busi ness specialising in extremely unique and classic cars. We have es tab l i shed ourselves to provide a unique and specialised exper ience fo r ou r clients both domestic a n d i n t e r n a t i o n a l l y. Providing classic restoration techniques such as metal finishing, led wiping and the refab r ication of panels that no longer can be bought due to the rare demand. Tell us a little bit about yo u r s e l ve s a n d yo u r
backgrounds? Originally from New Zealand, I began the journey of my apprenticeship in 1987 a n d wa s o n e o f t h e for tunate candidates to be taught in a shop cherishing the traditional methods of panel beating and coach building. Through this we have been able to replicate these techniques into restoration of our cars and pride ourselves on upholding this value. After moving to Australia in 1990 I wanted to broaden my skills in the trade, so I surrounded myself w ith and bui lt friendships within the car industry. This allowed me to notice the negative image associated with the restoration industry. T h i s i n s p i red m e to operate a business with complete transparency about the restoration p ro ce s s a n d w h a t i t entails, and it allows for a smooth and s t res s free experience for the clients. Coonabarabran is known for supporting its local businesses. What has been the reaction so far from residents? Su p p o r t, s u p p o r t,

WEATHER WATCH A very deep low pressure of central pressure of 975mbs formed west of Tasmania at the beg i n n i ng of February, and brought t he c old e s t Fe br u a r y d ay si nc e 3 Febr u a r y 2005 to many places in ou r reg ions a nd then, during the last weekend, ma ny places a lso had their coldest morning for early February for many decades. At Wilcannia the temperature on Saturday morning fell to 9.4 degrees, the lowest for early February in 138 ye a r s o f r e c o r d s ; t he previous record low for early February was 9.9 in 1899. Broken Hill recorded 7.7 degrees last Saturday, also a record low for early February in 110 years of records; the previous record low being 8.3 in 1954. C oba r ’s 8 . 8 deg rees was the coldest since 8.7 in 2005 and before that in 1885, 1929 and 1935. Last Sunday, 5 F e b r u a r y , Coonabarabran recorded j u s t s i x d e g r e e s , t he coldest for early February since 3.6 on 3 February 1995. Walgett’s 8.8 degrees was also the coldest since 7.1 in 2005. Gu n neda h’s 7.1 was one of t he c olde st for early February since the record of 3.3 degrees on 4 February 1917. Other cases of low minimum
temperatures for early February were in 1885, 19 0 9 , 1917, 19 3 5 a nd 1954. As the previous month of January did not have excessive days of over 40 degrees, I have chosen 1917, 19 3 5 , 19 5 4 a nd 19 9 6. T he autumns of these episodes were all drier and warmer than usual, with some high temperatures of over 33 deg rees late in March and again in early April in our regions, although April itself was wetter over most of Victoria. The deep low pressure resulted in the lowest ba r omet er r e ad i n g i n Melbourne of 989.1mbs si nce the 9 8 6mbs i n February of 20 05, and the thi rd lowest since 9 8 7m b s i n F e b r u a r y 1927. Once again both 19 27 a nd 2 0 0 5 s aw a warmer and drier aut u m n s e a s on , but heav y ra i n a r r ived i n June. Perth has had a very dry summer to date. The total rain fall for both December and January was on ly 1.4mms, the driest since zero rainfall f rom December 2 0 0 9 t o Ja nu a r y 2 010 a nd before that, zero rainfall from December 1994 to January 1995. We had a wet May and Ju ne a f t er wa r m d r y conditions in March and Apr i l a f t er both 19 9 5 and 2010.

suppo r t. T h roug h the p rocess of moving to Coonabarabran we have m et a coup l e families which has helped to m a ke i t a s m o ot h transition for us and a positive experience. This has overall expanded our business name and allows for residents to come into the workshop and ask and assess what we do.
What are your hopes and future visions for the venture? E s t a b l i s h i n g the business in Coonabarabran we had the goal of employing young locals to expand and broaden our teaching techniques, which ultimately allows for the continuation of transparency throughout the industr y. We have
already succeeded with this goal having hired an apprentice, and may need more staff down the track. What is your point of di f ference from other similar businesses? Our transparency policies set us apart from other businesses and is something that we pride ourselves on. This allows clients to come into the
workshop when needed to see the progress being made on their car. We provide an equal array of artistry throughout our cars, never depending on the quality, rarity or value of the car. What do you like the
most about the region so far? The spirit of the community allows for a fr iendly and welcoming environment for ever yone and the vast display of outdoor scenery and activities.

New year, new plan T he r e c e nt h ol id ay season was filled with plenty of talk of rising costs and inflation’s impact on our economy, and we are hearing rumours now that February 2023’s rate rise could be as much as 40 basis points, taking the cash rate to 3.5 per cent. It is understandable, as higher prices are putting pressure on budgets, which is affecting everyone and if you are trying to run a small to medium business in this environment you are no exception. That is why this month I thought I would share some tips and suggestions that can help businesses weather the storm. On reflection, these tips may also be useful for families or individuals lo ok i ng t o stay a f loat during these challenging times. Keep a close eye on ex p en s e s : Pay i ng attention to where you are spending your money including business overheads, material input costs, and even utility expenses like electricity and gas charges, can help you identify areas where expenses can be trimmed. Some costs are fixed but others are not, and you can exercise judgement in cutting out some of these things that are not currently necessary. Raise prices: With the cost of goods and services
on the rise, consider raising your prices accordingly. While you may be worried about customer reactions, it’s a common trend in this economic climate. The reality is everything is going up, and if you don’t mat ch you r ow n prices to this inflationary environment the value you offer will go backwards. S t r e a m l i n e operations: Look for ways to simplify your operations a nd reduce wast e, for ex a mple aut omat i ng processes where possible, consider outsourcing tasks, or eliminating certain activities altogether if they are not adding value in your business (or personal life). Negotiate with suppliers: Review your supplier list and look for better deals or negotiate more favourable pricing. You c a n a l s o e x plor e different payment terms or request a repayment holiday to help you through a tough month. Remember, it ’s i n you r suppl ier ’s best interest to help you succeed, but also worth remembering postponing p ay ment s on o ver due accounts will likely add to the bill with interest. Always be careful with decisions like this as you often get what you pay for, and cheaper isn’t always better, but if you don’t review every so often and ensure you are getting
a good deal, you will be missing out. Invest in technology: Technology investments like a cloud-based accounting system, can help you improve efficiency and lower costs in the long run. Having access to readily available and up -t o - dat e f i na ncia l information is essential to making fast and informed decisions at any time in business, but none more so than when extra pressure is being applied. Diversify offerings: Expanding your product or service offerings can help you generate additional revenue streams and lessen the impact of increased costs or slowdow ns i n business. Individuals can
also explore side hustles to earn extra income. Don’t try and take on too much though and ensure you do what you do well, as we are not all experts at multi-tasking! Review debt: Consider consolidating debt from multiple sources to make it more manageable. Every yea r or so it is wor th talking to your banking relationship manager to ensure any loans you have are competitive with the market. Reach out to a financial professional for advice on managing debt effectively. Seek support: Don’t he sit at e t o s e ek help when needed. This can come in the form of advice from an accountant or

busi ness consu lta nt , or taking advantage of government programs and grants available to small businesses. Don’t forget to talk to your friends and peers in business as you aren’t the only one feeling the pinch, we are all in this together and sometimes it helps to just have a chat about it with someone who understands the pressures faced. By fol low i ng these tips, small to medium businesses can effectively ma nage the impact of rising costs and inflation and secure their long-term success. The key is to be proactive in your approach and if you are not already in control – start now!

WORD Call for LRCI funding details to be released I’m calling on the Labor Government to release the funding details for the next phase of the Local Roads and Community In frastructure ( L RCI ) prog ram, t o prov ide certainty to local councils as they plan their capital works budgets for the year. When I was the Minister for L ocal Government, I helped implement the LRCI program in 2020 as a stimulus for local e c onom ies du r i ng the COVID-19 pandemic. It has proven to be one of the most beneficial programs for local councils and when I travel throughout the Pa rkes ele ct orat e, I can see the direct and
indirect benefits the LRCI program has brought to our communities. I was pleased when L abor committed a n additional $250 million (on top of the $500 million previously budgeted by the former C oa l ition Government) in the 202223 October Budget. However, local councils are still waiting to find out the amount of funding they can expect to receive, and the conditions attached to it, under Phase 4. This is making it very difficult for our councils t o pl a n t he i r c apit a l works budgets for the year ahead. Our councils will be even more reliant on this funding this year as they face millions of dollars in repair bills to fix local
r oad s t h at h ave b e en damaged by the relentless rain and flooding. I c a l l on the L ab or Government to write to every council adv ising ex ac t ly wh at f u nd i n g they will receive from the LRCI program to enable councillors and staff to get on with the job. Assistance for tertiary students With many young people in the electorate about to head off to university, I thought it was timely to highlight the financial assistance available to those who wish to further their studies. The costs associated with attending tertiary education in another town or city is often the biggest barrier for students from our regional, rural and
remote areas. The former Coalition Government recognised this and implemented a number of improvements to eligibility criteria to ensure more students from regional Australia could access tertiary education without having to face the financial barrier. A range of assistance is available to students including Youth Allowance for students and Australian Apprentices, Austudy, ABSTUDY, the Student Start-up Loan, the Tertiary Assistance Payment and the Relocation Scholarship. Eligibility criteria for each of these payments varies, so it is important to contact Services Australia before starting a claim.

On track for super summer race meet Coonabarabran’s first race meet of the year promises to be a fun and fashionable day out. by CHRIS WARD It seems like on ly yest erday the Coonabarabran Jockey Club ran its successful C h r istmas C up on 2 3 December. Despite the short turn around the committee is preparing for the first race meet of 2023, which will run on Saturday, 18 February. Jockey Club president, Adam Freeman is hoping to build on the successful Christmas Cup with the upcoming summer race meet. “ We had such a stop and start year last year with the f loods causing havoc with tracks, so it
will be good to have some continuity with back-toback meets,” he said. “It was such a relief to run the Christmas Cup – and it turned out really well. “ S o we’re hopi ng t o carry that into this new year of racing.” The summer race meet will be a six-card event, with gates opening from 11.30am. As usual there will be a barbecue and facilities as well as the popular Fashions on the Field. M r F reeman said although the heavy rain of 2022 caused many race meets to be abandoned, there was one positive thing to come out of it in terms of racing.
“ T h a n k s t o a l l t he rain, we’ve got a fantastic looking track,” he said. “Our committee work really hard to make sure it’s as good as possible for
every race meet. “As long as we get some favou rable weather it should make for a fantastic day of racing.”

T he v isitors made a s ol id st a r t a nd edged their way to 23 in the si xth over before they lost their first wicket, Brandon Hammond for 11. That started a good period for Coona and by the end of the fifteenth over they had Tow n Services 5-46. Just when the innings looked likely to f inish very early Mark Temple (2 6 not out) a nd Da le Parker (16) shared a 43run partnership and took the score to 89, before t h r e e w icket s fel l for four runs to see the side dismissed for 93 in the 25th over.

Life lessons for league teens Hard work, accountability and responsibility are paying dividends for local teens. by CHRIS WARD Twelve Coonabarabran youngsters will have the cha nce t o chase thei r r u g by le a g ue d r e a m s after being selected in the Far West Academy of Sport (FWAS). M a ny of them c a n tha n k C o onaba rabra n resident and FWAS girls u nder 15 ’s c oach , Poi Birtles for getting them there. It was a gentle push and a guiding hand from Poi t h at help e d st e er the teens in the r ight direction. “ Most of them didn’t have the confidence and didn’t think they would go any further than just pl ay i n g t he i r we e k ly sport,” Poi said. “ T hey just needed a little push and some conf idence to take the next step.” To prepare the youngsters, who range from 15 to 17 years of age, for the cha l lenge ahead and to weed out the less committed, Poi ra n t ra i n i ng session s throughout the off season. Not only has she seen a dramatic increase in their on-field abilities, Poi said she has noticed a massive shift in attitudes. “I told them they have a good chance here to follow their dreams, but they’d have to work hard for it,”
she explained. “I’ve noticed these guys really stepped it up. “A nd I was actually qu it e su r pr i sed ther e were some that I didn’t expect would show the commitment , but they really proved me wrong. “ It has rea l ly g iven them a sense of confidence and improved discipline on and off the field - and i s t e ac h i n g t hem l i fe lessons. “But also, to have 12 kids selected in the FWAS just shows how strong a sporting community we have here.” League camp L ast weekend , 3 - 4 February, the 12-strong local contingent attended a rugby league camp at Warren. On 3 March the group will tour the NSW Centre of Excellence and later t h at mont h t hey w i l l t ravel t o Newc astle, where they will compete i n a nu m b e r o f t r i a l matches. D u r i ng the camps Poi said the group learn about nutrition, mental health and rugby league fundamentals and skills. T he g r oup ’s nex t c h a l le n g e i s t o r a i s e enough funds to be able to continue with FWAS. The total cost is $550 per athlete and Poi said the group plans to sell NRL merchandise, raffle food hampers and hold
barbecues. “ By put t i ng it back on t hem it ’s t e ach i ng t h e m a c c o u n t a b i l i t y,

Santos presents Festival of Rugby in Narrabri on February 10 and 11 In partnership with Queensland Rugby Union and NSW Rugby Union, Santos presents the Santos Festival of Rugby on February 10 and 11, 2023, at
Playing for the Santos Cup, this is a chance for the teams to get a good hit-out before the Super Rugby Pacific tournament kicks off. And for the first time on the

festival program, the Reds and Waratahs Super W teams will go head to head before the men’s match, adding to the great state rivalry.
The annual celebration of rugby will also include elite Sevens, country representative matches and men’s and women’s Super Rugby fixtures.
Big Blue Boars welcome to Narrabri Having the Santos Festival of Rugby returning to Narrabri is an exciting prospect for not just the Blue Boars, but the community. The last event was put together over nine short weeks and was heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic which created a multitude of issues for all stakeholders to navigate. Despite these challenges a successful event was held, and the much-needed economic stimulus to the local economy at the time was enormous. The 2023 festival will do the same, and then some. There are more teams playing rugby over the two days which means more people in town who need feeding, who will buy fuel, visit local shops, stay in motels, grab a coffee and enjoy the experiences Narrabri has to offer. We are confident the rugby at the festival will deliver something for everyone-from the
fast-moving thrills of 7s to the high impact intensity of 15s and everything in-between there will entertainment galore. It is a wonderful opportunity to have these professional franchises and their players so accessible to us. An event like this simply doesn’t “just happen”. The NSW and QLD rugby unions have staff dedicated to the planning and execution of everything and have been busy for several months already ensuring every minute detail is covered off on. Our long-term partners Santos, who are the platinum sponsors of our club have once again gone to great lengths to ensure the club is involved at a level we are comfortable with, that our members can enjoy themselves at the event and still feel some ownership to the place despite the stadium like feel with the huge grandstands, food trucks and extra sideshows.
Their attention to detail is first rate. It's summertime, the weather is warm and it’s festival time so people are keen to let their hair down and enjoy themselves. The atmosphere is only as good as those who are keeping the masses fed and watered provide. We wish to thank all those who will be providing food outlets for attending, and it would be remiss of me not to single out Geoff Artis and his team of helpers for organising the event licence, the bars and so many other important pieces of the puzzle that no one thinks of but without being done properly and professionally would not see the event be anywhere near as enjoyable for everyone. Any game of rugby is influenced heavily by the quality of the playing surface. The surface at Dangar Park is in fantastic condition, the Narrabri Shire parks and gardens

team are to be congratulated and thanked for their efforts. People will talk about how great the grounds looked long after the event, I’m sure. Narrabri Shire Council has always been supportive of the festival, and council shares our opinion and vision that Dangar Park and the surrounding facilities should be utilised much more than is currently the case. We look forward to working with council towards this and thank them for their support. As far as the Blue Boars club input to the event, it is a real team effort. We have amazing sponsors who willingly contribute to the club which allows us to operate the way we do. When you come to the festival take notice of all the signs around the grounds belonging to these sponsors and we encourage you whenever possible to shop or do business with them.
Our club is blessed with passionate, dedicated and hard-working committee members and volunteers. The lengths these people go to in our clubs pursuit of success both on and off the field never ceases to amaze me, it is inspiring to be a part of such a wonderful group. Our club has arrived to where it is today from the hard work and passion of those before us, and we strive to continue to provide a welcoming, safe, fun and successful club that people want to be a part of. So, come to the Santos Festival of Rugby next Friday and Saturday. If rugby isn’t your thing, then surely live music, DJs, great food and cool drinks are. See you there!

Join us for the Festival of Rugby and discover Narrabri Shire: Mayor Following the Santos of Festival of Rugby’s successful launch in Narrabri in 2021, Narrabri Shire mayor Ron Campbell is hopeful the event will prove a record-breaking success when it returns to the shire this month. During the midst of the COVID pandemic, organisers pulled the debut festival together in a relatively short period of time. Despite the challenges at the time, the inaugural Narrabri festival proved a tremendous success. “I remember people saying in 2021 they experienced record sales,” Cr Campbell said. “This year, all the shop fronts can take the opportunity of the amount of people who will be in the shire. “Our accommodation, restaurants and pubs will be booked out. “I wouldn’t be surprised if records are broken again.” Cr Campbell spoke about his hopes for a successful festival at Dangar Park while construction activity on grandstand seating was underway. The mayor was joined by Narrabri Rugby Club president Mick Coffey, and both are ready to welcome festival-goers in Narrabri’s true friendly style. “This is a very well

can look to the future in regards to other events held here – big events that can encompass Gately Field and the tennis and netball courts,” he said. “Our vision is to have a big sporting complex here as part of a sporting precinct.” Cr Campbell described the festival as an exciting event which was being held during an exciting time in the shire. “People are excited about the Festival of Rugby. “Santos, the rugby club, the Waratahs, the Reds and council have worked closely together to pull this event off. “That’s evidenced by the fact that the grandstands are going up now, things are happening at Dangar Park and the oval is looking fantastic. “We will see a fantastic event that will benefit the whole of the Narrabri Shire as well as the broader region.”

Queensland Country and New South Wales Country will face off for regional bragging rights to kickstart the action on the Friday night, before the Reds and Waratahs Super W sides take to the field for the first time in the event’s three-year history the following evening. The two-day festival will culminate in a clash between traditional rivals Queensland and New South Wales, with the Reds searching for their first win in the yearly pre-season fixture. Held at Dangar Park, home of the Narrabri Rugby Club, in partnership with Santos and the Narrabri Shire Council, the event will also feature country music stars Brad Cox and Casey Barnes, who will perform on
Friday and Saturday night respectively. After their Commonwealth Games, World Series and World Cup success, members of the Australian Sevens Women’s squad will be in action over the two days, while the Festival of Rugby’s two hosting clubs, the Roma Echidnas and Narrabri, will also clash in both men’s and women’s rugby. Santos managing director and chief executive officer Kevin Gallagher said Santos is proud to bring the Festival of Rugby back to Narrabri after a record-breaking inaugural event in 2021. “The first-ever Santos Festival of Rugby was held in Narrabri in 2021 and we’re really excited to bring the event back again in 2023,” Mr Gallagher said. “This time, with the inclusion of the Super W event, we hope the two-day festival breaks the 2021 records where more than 3600 people flocked to the upgraded Dangar Park for the event. “Economic modelling showed in 2021, the festival contributed more than $375,000 in indirect spend to the town with another $375,000 spent on local suppliers for field works and festival-related products and services, and an

additional $200,000 on infrastructure upgrades. “We look forward to bringing another fantastic weekend of rugby, along with the associated
economic and tourism benefits, to Narrabri again next year.” Queensland Rugby Union CEO David Hanham said the organisation is looking forward to heading back to Narrabri for next year’s Santos Festival of Rugby. “It’s exciting to have both our men’s and women’s teams in action for the first time in the event’s history, as well as our Queensland Country Orchids and Heelers. “Thank you to Santos for their ongoing support of the festival, and for grassroots rugby around the nation.” NSW Rugby Union CEO Paul Doorn said the Santos Festival of Rugby has become a signature event in the Australian rugby
calendar and something the organisation is really excited to continue to be involved in. “Last year’s event in Roma was a huge success and we can’t wait to get to Narrabri for a quality hit out against our oldest rivals and the opportunity to engage with the heartland of country NSW. “This year we are thrilled that our women’s team will also be taking part, expanding what is already an amazing Festival of Rugby. “Whilst we maintain a fierce rivalry on the field, we’re pleased to be working with the Reds and thank Santos for the opportunity to deepen our connection with country rugby and help foster the growth of the game in the bush.”

GBP has been operating in the Gunnedah basin since 1975 and has continued to grow and develop
since this date. What started with a single truck mounted crane has now grown into the New England Northwest NSW region’s largest most modern crane company boasting a fleet of cranes ranging from 20T Frannas right through to our 2 Liebherr 250T all-terrain cranes. GBP is owned and operated by Stuart Grosser and Daniel Hawkins who are both very passionate about the industry we work in and strive to achieve the best experience for their customers. Both Daniel and Stuart hold the local spirit close to their heart, sponsoring local sporting clubs and events held throughout the year. That is also evident when they offer the opportunities to young locals to learn and gain skills in the industry through their business. In 2016 GBP Heavy Haulage was formed to also offer our clients haulage and heavy haulage services. We have a fleet of trucks and trailers that allow us to move anything from small pieces of equipment through to 10-metre-wide haul truck bodies and other large mining equipment as needed. We have a fleet of our own pilot vehicles and experienced staff who can organise everything from small moves to larger police escort logistics. This fleet means that GBP can offer a complete start to finish partnership for a range of businesses, everything from house trusses and pool installations right through to bridge beams, mine setup and maintenance as well as certified tilt tray services. We have a large team of qualified operators with a wealth of knowledge and industry experience, combined with a well maintained and modern fleet of cranes that makes us the region’s leading crane and heavy haulage operator. GBP have recently acquired access equipment such as Boom Lifts and Elevated Work Platforms which are available for Dry Hire. Our Access Equipment has undergone the necessary assessments to be fully compliant for our clients/sites and we are providing our personnel with the necessary updated training in the safe use of this equipment. Our mission is to maintain our reputation and our position as the region’s leaders in heavy lifting. To do this we are actively investing not only in our modern fleet but also in our people. We are constantly improving our employee’s skill base via independent external RTO training and via supplier training and familiarisation, as well as carrying out our own internal mentor programs so that our experienced operators pass on and share their knowledge. GBP have also recently invested heavily in the construction of our region’s 1st purposebuilt crane and heavy haulage facility’, complete with a onsite weigh station to enhance our road compliance. The project is currently around 50% complete and it is hoped that the facility will be fully complete in late 2023. GBP have been involved in the establishment and ongoing operations of all mines and major works in the region. GBP has been heavily involved in the following sectors: (not limited to) • Rail industry – providing services for emergency derailments through to construction of rail infrastructure. • Agriculture – building storage silos and sheds all around the New England northwest region. • Building – working on major projects including schools and processing plants, bridge beams etc. • Mining – providing services for initial setup of mine sites and coal handling facilities in both open cut and underground. • Gas – working with exploration and extraction companies to erect and mobilise drilling and extraction equipment. GBP Cranes and Heavy Haulage are expanding their business and are quickly becoming a Tier 1 company and working towards Accreditation in ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001:2011 : AS/NZS 4801:2001, PAS99:2012 Integrated Management System and National Code Compliance in the near future. GBP look forward to expanding our client base and providing our clients with the quality experience they are looking for and being involved and part of the projects in our local regions.
