Apartments set for city fringe Andrew Board

A five storey, 30-apartment complex on the city fringe was given the green light to be included as a special housing area by councillors last week. Plans for the building – which will sit between NZ Classic Motorbikes and Otto’s

Page 22 - 25

Backpackers on Haven Rd – were in the very early stages, in fact most were handdrawn. But councillors like the concept of apartments close to the city and that it is likely to be more affordable that some of the other proposals put to council. Councillors decided on eight projects that applied to be deemed special housing ar-

eas, which streamlines the resource management act process. The others to be accepted were an amendment to Barcelona Lofts on Haven Rd, taking it from four to five storeys; a three townhouse complex on Wakefield Quay; a subdivision in Enner Glynn; a Summerset retirement village behind Saxton Field; and

a subdivision on Farleigh St in Atawhai. Interestingly, the Summerset and Farleigh St applications were deemed unsuitable by staff, but were approved by councillors. Another three projects were struck down by councillors, including a four storey

Light Nelson is back Light Nelson is back and brighter than ever, and beginning this Friday night over 60 installations will be lighting up Queens Gardens and other parts of the city. It’s the third time Nelson has produced the community focussed winter festival, and Light Nelson Trust chair Brian Riley says he is confident the event would be a great experience for everyone this year. The NMIT campus will also host installations, and part of Hardy St will be closed off with food stalls. Brian says he has been “blown away” with the community involvement, with children all over town contributing various projects. Light Nelson runs from 5:30pm to 9:30pm each evening from Friday July 8 to Tuesday July 12. Maps of the installations at lightnelson.org.nz.

LIGHT NELSON IS BACK: Madeline Shallcrass reaches out to touch the light beams from a display at the last Light Nelson in Queen’s Gardens. This year’s Light Nelson starts on Friday night.

“They don’t seem like the right places for apartments, although I’m sure they would appeal to some people.”

“I think apartments are perfect for the area - look at Surfers Paradise, I think it’s the way it’s going to go.”

“It’s not the right place for apartments. I would like to see more shops by the traffic lights there.”

“I think apartment buildings in those places would block out too many people’s views.”

apartment building at the Car Company site next to the Tahuna lights, a five storey apartment building at Aloha Lodge site on Beach Rd, Tahuna, and a small subdivision on Domett St. There was a large public gallery at the meeting to speak against the two Tahunanui proposals, saying there has been no consultation and the projects would not fit with the current community. Councillors, while voting down the proposal, said they would be keen to see development in Tahuna and they would like the developers to come back with a proposal through the normal process. Bernard Downey was speaking on behalf of the consortium which owns the land at 8183 Haven Rd. He said the proposal was to make the building 20 metres high and include five floors of

up to 30 residential apartments. “The idea is to make them as affordable as possible. We envision that there are people who want to retire and come off the hill, as well as the so-called young professional group.” He says the apartments will get more expensive the higher they are, but he expects them to be “moderately priced”. Bernard said he recognised the significance of the site as an entry and exit point from the city. “I can assure you, you will be pleased,” he told councillors. Before voting for the project to be approved and sent to central government to be gazetted, councillors voted to include an amendment that the design of the building must be approved by the council’s urban design panel. Both the amendment and the proposal passed nine votes to two.

Removal of ATM ‘further isolates Tahunanui’

Need it built now?

Andrew Board

Tahunanui has lost its sole public ATM machine after Westpac closed its Tahunanui Dr site this month. The ATM, next to Harley’s Pharmacy, had been in place since Westpac closed its Tahuna branch several years ago. Chair of the Tahunanui Business Association, Mike Rutledge, says that backs away from an agreement from Westpac to keep an ATM in Tahuna “permanently”. “A step like this just further isolates the Tahunanui community and we’d suggest is a step in the wrong direction. “There are quite a few operators that pop up over summer and who are cash-based businesses, so it will be an issue for them. The issue for other local businesses is that people try to use them almost as their ATM by asking for cash.” Westpac says there has been a steady decline of transactions at the ATM which no longer made it viable to retain. Mike says he first saw that the ATM had been removed, last week. “There are two sides to this, one is in the summer when this area just fills with tourists and the other side is

We do have a large percentage of older folk here and if they’ve run a cash book their whole lives, to jump to ‘oh, you can pay by an app on your phone’ is a big jump.” Westpac has told the business association that residents can use its facilities at Nelson Airport, Stoke or Nelson. There is another ATM in Tahunanui but it is inside the Mobil station on Tahunanui Dr, but Mike says it’s better to have one that isn’t in another business. Mike says the departure of the ATM is another step in Tahunanui becoming a “freight highway”. “This is just one of those little steps that further isolates Ta-

huna and it really does come down to constantly putting these heavy freight movements right through the middle of our little seaside village. This is the biggest recreational asset we have, we have to stop treating it as a freight highway, and that really is the long-term solution to making Tahuna and Nelson the most liveable city in the country.” Mike hopes another bank will fill the gap left by Westpac and install their own ATM. “Now there’s a great opportunity for another bank, another provider, to jump in here and offer a service to the Tahuna community and, hopefully, get a lot of business for themselves.”

John-Paul says he’s really enjoying working with the students. “It’s been a very fluid project and it’s cool to have this amount of input from the next generation,” he says. “They are fascinated with the laser and it’s quite cool to use this level of technology because it encompasses maths, culture, language and art. “There are so many different elements in one project and hopefully it sparks their imagination for the future.” Light Nelson will brighten the sides of buildings between July 8-12 and thousands are expected to turn out for the spectacle.

The final surface application is due to start this Saturday and be finished by July 22. The Queen palm trees in the middle of the roundabout have been relocated from Hamilton at a cost of $9980. NZTA regional performance manager

The roundabout at Quarantine Rd is set to be the nicest in Nelson, with three palm trees worth $10,000 and a sculpture to be erected between the two poles that have been installed. The roundabout is on track to be finished by the end of the month, at a total cost of $2.2 million. Work started in early March and has added extra lanes on

Mark Owen says the trees will undergo some “shock” as they get used to their new home. “However, they will recover in spring.” The two poles, which have been installed in the middle of the roundabout will be used to display some temporary art. The art project is being led by Nelson City Council, which says it will be in place later this year. What art will feature hasn’t been decided yet.

land regions resting above the national average for bowel cancer rates between 2009 and 2013, according to new data. In Nelson Marlborough, 86.4 patients suffer from bowel cancer per 100,000 people with a total of 604 Nelsonians diagnosed with bowel cancer over the five year period. South Canterbury has the highest rate at 113 patients per 100,000 people. It is followed by Wairarapa, Otago-South.co.nz land, Nelson Marlborough, Bay of Plenty, Taranaki and Hawkes Bay.

Ski field opening postponed: Rainbow Ski Field announced last night that those wanting to carve up the slopes may have to wait a while longer to strap on their boards and skis. The ski field was set to open on July 9 following a heavy dump of powdery snow at the end of May, but due to the recent rain and warm fronts the field will now open on July 16. “We’re sitting at about 10cm on the up-

per field so it’s pretty marginal. If we get a big dump within the next week or so we’ll look to bring forward the opening date and get everyone up there nice and early, but we’re just in Mother Nature’s hands now,” says Mountain Manager John Dick. Koha Shed reaches final destination: After more than a year, the Koha Shed Nelson is finally at its new home at Victory Community Centre. The 40ft and 20ft containers were transported to the community centre on Wednesday and Thursday morning and, although they look more like large unmissable lego bricks plonked by the car park, centre co-ordinator Nicola Baré says they won’t stay the colour of Elmo forever. The containers will undergo a lick of paint and a renovation, with window and storage installations before opening their doors in around three weeks.

With only three months left to raise the $600,000 needed to save Tahunanui’s Modellers Pond, the Nelson Society of Modellers have only raised $6000 and are calling on the community to lend a hand. Nelson City Council have committed $600,000 - exactly half of the cost - towards the estimated $1.2 million project to fix the pond’s ongoing algae problem, but on the condition that the modellers make up the shortfall by the end of September. Three months on, president of the soci-

ety Nigel Gibbs says they are still seeking contributions, while actively applying for grants. “It feels like we haven’t achieved much but hopefully we’ll have something to produce come the end of September,” he says. As well as setting up a Givealittle page, which has so far raised $625, the society have held a family fun day, and are taking a portion of the takings from the Sunday train rides every week. Nigel also says they are hoping to secure two major funding applications – one from a Lottery Grant, which can’t be ap-

plied for until 20 July, and the other from the Rata Foundation who they expecting to hear back from next month. “We’re also still having discussions with local businesses - but we’re working on it and this is where we’re at,” says Nigel. If the funding target is met by September, the project could start as soon as resource consent is granted, and would see the removal of contaminated material in the pond, installation of subsurface drainage, installation of a concrete floor to the pond and aerators to increase oxygenation. It would also involve modifications to the

centennial pump station, and installing automated controls at the Parkers Cove outlet and the pond inlet/outlet weir to coordinate emptying and filling the pond with sea water. If the funding target is not met, it has been recommended by council that it be reinstated into an estuarine environment, and the Modellers say that the money raised would be distributed into the community. If people want to donate, they can visit the Givealittle page givealittle.co.nz/cause/pond or contact the Nelson Society of Modellers at www.nelsonmodellers.org.nz/contact/.

Adam Friend is leaving his Nelson laboratory this month to serve as the Colour Bearer of the 2nd Canterbury, Nelson, Marlborough, West Coast Battalion Regimental Colour at the French Bastille Day military parade in Paris on 14 July. Dr Friend, a plant scientist with Plant and Food Research, is also an officer in the New Zealand Defence Force Army Reserve, where he is a platoon commander with the 2/4 Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment. Regimental Colours and banners representing New Zealand units that served in the First World War will be paraded by 86 NZDF personnel on the ChampsÉlysèes during the parade – the first time these flags have been paraded together outside of New Zealand. Infantry Colours are flags that symbolise the spirit of a regiment and include honours and badges granted for battles the regiment has participated in since it was raised. The 2nd Canterbury, Nelson, Marlborough, West Coast Battalion regimental colour is emblazoned with 21 battle honours, says Lieutenant Friend.

Businesses startup in just 54 hours during comp Jessie Johnston

It’s amazing what can be achieved in a short space of time, as many found out during Nelson’s second annual Startup Weekend. Organised by Innovate, Startup Weekend is basically a “fast and furious business bootcamp” giving people just 54 hours to pitch a business idea, test that idea in the market place, build a team and get a firm business plan in place. Starting on Friday, those participating in the full-on weekend gathered at the NMIT to pitch ideas and form teams, before Saturday and Sunday were spent figuring out how that business would make money, who it would be sold to and, if possible, building a prototype of their product, all leading up to Sunday night when each team performed a Dragons Den pitch in front of three judges. “It's an amazing range of people, some of them already own businesses and they have a spinoff project in mind, some of them already own businesses and are just looking for ways to improve, some of them are employees who want to start their own business. We also have people like me who don't have their own business or plans to start one, but can see the value to their careers in being able to think like the boss,” says interim manager of Innovate and Startup Weekend, Jennifer Stewart. Each team received feedback from the judges on their business and, while there were prizes including a spot on Innovate’s business course, the main reward was the knowledge and skills gained from the experience. Around nine teams were formed, with business ideas ranging from a time bank where people could trade their time and services in exchange for health care to an all night food delivery service for local motel guests. Staff from Nelson Provincial Museum also took part in the weekend, forming the business Scaritage. The idea focused on advising and guiding other museums and heritage organisations on how to present local history and stories to the public with an element of fear, in order to engage their audience as well as generate revenue. After the judges deliberation on Sunday night, it was NapNanny that took out the top spot with their idea, originally pitched by Mathew Pottinger, for a baby monitor that could track the position that the babies head is in while sleeping in order to reduce flat head syndrome, while runner-up was Scaritage.

Local motorheads celebrate USA’s Independence Day

INDEPENDENCE DAY CRUISE: “Spot” Christoffersen with his wife Di Gingell and their 1970 Pontiac, at Club Waimea on Sunday for the start of the Independence Day Cruise. The cruise is hosted by the Nelson City Hot Rod and Custom Club and saw dozens of cars make their way around the Tasman district before finishing at Brightwater. Photo: Jessie Johnston.

Jessie Johnston The fourth of July isn’t particularly significant for Kiwis, but for anyone who loves hot rods and American muscle it’s the perfect opportunity to get their pride and joy out of the shed. Nelson’s Independence Day Cruise on Sunday was organised by Nelson City Rod and Custom Club and saw participants gather at Club Waimea, making their way to Upper Moutere before heading to Brightwater Motor Inn for lunch, via Mt Heslington Rd. “It’s just a good excuse to get the cars out,” says organiser Barry Hefford. “And because it’s the middle of winter there’s not generally a lot else on.” Taking part in the cruise on Sunday was Tahunanui car enthusiast “Spot” Christoffersen, with his 1970 Pontiac. Originally found in an American wrecking yard, it’s now been on the road around six years after Spot undertook a full restoration with his own hands, minus the paint and panel work, getting it roadworthy for his 50th birthday. “It was something I’d wanted and I’ve always played round with cars,” says Spot. “I’ve got a few others tucked away but I wanted something that was a wee bit different and this is definitely different. It had no motor, although it was a very straight car and there were just little bits and pieces missing all along, so it’s been about a five year process to find all the bits we needed. Because it is just slightly oddball, we didn’t find some of the bits until about three or four years later on some of our trips going through wrecking yards in America.” With virtually all the missing parts only available in America, Spot made around six trips to the USA to piece his car back together, and while it looks the part now, he says there are still things here and there that need to be done to complete the restoration. A mechanic by trade, Spot also has a 69 GTO convertible and four Chevrolets he’s working on, as well as helping friends with their restoration projects. The Independence Day Cruise also raised money for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter.

they? Tom Cooney. What's in the water? Wendy Blincoe. I doubt it's in the water, Nelson people. Sorry, but there's other factors at play here. It isn't about where you live or even how you live, what you do or don't do, if you drink beer or coffee or tea or water or play golf, or go to church or go to the gym. I wish I had a better answer too, I'm sorry I don't. But please take note, The C is everywhere and we are always searching for the answers. Helene Hewetson. Council candidate: It is my intention to stand for Nelson City Council in the upcoming local body elections. In 2013 I attracted 5466 votes, missing out by only 500 votes. For a balanced view around the council table, I feel more female councillors are needed to represent the community stakeholders and the business community. I see this as a time to be able to step up and give something back to the community that I have been active in for many years and help Nelson thrive. Standing for Nelson City Council is a big commitment and I would treat the role of councillor as my full-time job. I would utilise my good communication skills and be open-minded to hear what people have to say about how to create a Nelson that we can all be proud of. Trudie Brand.

Efficient transport links to Port Nelson are essential to cope with it’s export growth of $200 million per year. Mel Courtney Council Candidate 2016

This breakfast club may not include Molly Ringwald or Judd Nelson, but the Nelson Hospital’s breakfast club does have a new fridge freezer thanks to the Nelson North Lions Club. See a need, fill a need, was the Nelson North Lions Club attitude when it donated a fridge freeezer and a washing machine to Nelson Hospital’s Ward four Breakfast Club last month. The club, based out of Ward four is dedicated to caring for and rehabbing longer-term patients back into their lives, and last week the Lions made their job a little easier. Gathering money raised from their craft fair, the Lions donated a fridge freezer to breakfast club patients who are using the first meal of the day to regain independence. Charge nurse manager Lisa Turner says she and the rest of the ward are extremely grateful for the practical donations. “They’re perfect, we have patients here from two weeks to three months and they get sick of hospital food, so the fridge is somewhere for them to store their own food," she says. "But it’s also for our rehabilitating breakfast club that teaches people how to do the basics, like making breakfast, after suffering from something like a stroke.” The club also donated a washing machine for patients who, after a couple of weeks, are keen to ditch the hospital gowns and wear their own clothes.

Lorna celebrates her 100th birthday at Mall Detour for

Waimea Rd motorists

Simon Bloomberg

Nelson's Lorna Moffitt enjoyed a double celebration of her 100th birthday last week, first marking the occasion with her family and then four days later enjoying a surprise party when she visited her favourite clothing store in the Richmond Mall. Lorna was born in Wakefield on June 24, 1916, and has only just moved out of her William St home and into Ernest Rutherford Retirement Village in Stoke. She celebrated her birthday with her family on June 24 and then last Tuesday received a surprise birthday cake from the staff in Black Pepper when she went shopping with her daughter Mary Moffitt, niece Roey Hamilton and daughter-in-law Paula Moffitt. Black Pepper store manager Lynne McPhail says she found out that her oldest customer was having her 100th birthday after talking to Mary. She decided to mark the occasion by holding a surprise birthday party and asked Mary to bring her mum into the store the next time she came into Richmond. "I couldn't let this go past without doing something," Lynne says. "She is one of my favourite customers, so we decided to arrange a cake and have a party."

Lorna Moffitt, front, celebrated her 100th birthday at Black Pepper in the Richmond Mall with, from left, store manager Lynne McPhail, niece Roey Hamilton, daughter Mary Moffitt and daughter-in-law Paula Moffitt, last Tuesday. Photo: Simon Bloomberg. Lorna was raised on a raspberry farm near Tapawera and was a home science teacher at Tapawera High School for many years. She married the late Alex Moffitt, who lived on the farm next door, when he returned from World War II in 1943 - they had four children, Adrian, Bruce, Mark and Mary.

Lorna says the secret to her longevity was "having a glass of wine every night" and her children, who, she always tells people "keep me young". However, genetics may also have contributed to Lorna's longevity as her mother Olive, who had eight children, also lived to a 100 before passing away in 1994.

Mary says Lorna is a wonderful mother who looked after her children when they were young and not so young. "We all lived with her at various stages and she was always very tolerant," Mary says. "The only rule she had for us was that we had to do our own breakfast dishes."

Drivers heading out of Nelson city along Waimea Rd will be forced to take a detour around Van Diemen St and Rutherford St, starting from next Monday. The detour will be in place for eight weeks from July 11. Van Diemen St will be closed at the Ngatitama St intersection to allow southbound traffic to keep moving, but access will be granted to residents. Parking and other restrictions will also be in place during the eight weeks. Northbound traffic, those heading into town, will not be effected, except for when Waimea Rd will need to be fully closed for two nights only during this time. This detour is for the construction of an underground stormwater chamber in Waimea Rd, says Nelson City Council. "We realise this detour will be inconvenient for residents and road users alike. However it is essential to complete the crucial Little Go Stream stormwater upgrade, with the aim of preventing future damage in heavy rain events. Thanks for your patience and understanding."

Maori language at its best

Maori immersion school, Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Tuia Te Matangi, won best overall school at the regional Manu Kōrero competition. Manu Kōrero is a secondary school’s speech competition that can be delivered in either English or Te Reo Māori. The regional finals were held at Nelson College on June 9 with the winners qualifying for the national finals in Whangarei in September. It was the fourth year Tuia Te Matangi competed

in the regional finals since the school opened in 2012. It was also the third time that the school has won three out of four sections and the trophy for the best overall school. Puawaireti Matiu, aged 17, stood in the Pei te Hurinui Jones section where her topic was Me mate te tikanga e ora ai te tikanga or 'do away with old traditions so we can create new traditions.' She placed first in the senior Māori prepared speech, impromptu speech and

won top female speaker and senior Māori aggregate overall. Ebony Alleyne, 16, was second in the Korimako senior English section with Nelson College’s Daedae de Thierry taking the win. The junior Māori – Ta Rawhiti Ihaka - section was won by Sonaia Beard, 13, who delivered a strong speech in Te Reo Māori on her topic of Homai he ra or 'Give me a day.' Elizabeth Lucas, also 13, won the Junior English – Ta Turi Carroll section.

Harvey Norman throws support behind Paralympians While our New Zealand Paralympians have been working extra hard to qualify for the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games in September, one local retailer has been hard at work raising money to help them get there. Harvey Norman Nelson, as part of a nationwide fundraising campaign, have been supporting the New Zealand Paralympic Team heading to Rio through a variety of in-store fund-raising activities. Utilising supplier networks, the Harvey Norman Nelson Bedding department have been selling supplier-

donated product to raise funds for Paralympics New Zealand. This, coupled with merchandise sales of Paralympic Spirit of Gold pins and wristbands, and taking donations at the till, has resulted in a very successful fund-raising effort thus far. Harvey Norman Bedding proprietor Adrian Sequeira says the effort and commitment shown by his retail sales team has helped raise awareness for Paralympics New Zealand. “It’s been a really great effort from all and we’ve raised quite substantial donations from Nelson, so I’m

very happy. Thank you to all our customers who have donated to this great cause”. Nelson has one confirmed Paralympian competing in this year’s games, runner Liam Malone. The fund-raising campaign will continue until mid-July with more products set out to sell to help raise money. The Rio 2016 Paralympic Gameswill be held on September 7-18 this year.

All that stands between 14 Nayland College students and the opportunity of a lifetime is 11,000km and a bit of fundraising. Fourteen of Nayland College’s economics students are gearing up for the school trip of a lifetime, a 10 day visit to America’s Silicon Valley, home of Google, Twitter, Facebook and Microsoft. Economics teacher and trip organiser, Nigel Lineham, says the group will go to all four of these iconic American corporations as well as sneaking in some sightseeing. “It’s going to be a great trip, they’re all great kids and its going to be really cool for them to meet our contacts and former students who will show them how it all works.” The students will be joined by their teacher Nigel Lineham, principal Daniel Wilson, Tony Downing and PC Media’s Zoe Fraser, as well as four students and a teacher from Marlborough Boys' College. The group take off on September 19 and return ten days later, so they’ve still got time to fund-raise and will be selling raffles, Pics peanut butter and

A five month long storm water upgrade at Orphanage Stream was completed last week. Starting in February, the project involved upgrading the storm water infrastructure and building a flood detention bund next to Main Rd Stoke, which will minimise the potential for damage to downstream properties in heavy rain events by using the Saxton Field area as storage. A council spokesperson says there were no ma-

jor hold-ups, and with a construction cost of $275,000, the project saw 1300m3 of fill imported to use for earth bunds and it offers a storage capacity of 39,000m3 of flood flow. The project is part of Nelson City Council’s programme to endorse the upgrading of streams and rivers in the city, where the risk to people and assets is high. Council will undertake upgrade works to cater for future one-in -100 year flows. Some final landscaping work is due to take place in the next two weeks.

The next time you need to, or want to, make a purchase, take time to think about why you should and where you can shop locally. Shopping locally is important for several reasons, from the number of local jobs it can create and the product knowledge and quality service local businesses can supply their customers, to the moral grounds of choosing business owners who have put an incredible amount of time, money and

effort into creating their enterprise. One of the most important reasons to back local businesses though, is to recognise and support their contribution to our local community. It’s common knowledge that local businesses are what drive a community, not the huge corporations. When money is spent locally and passes through many local hands, more people are able to benefit from it. It can be very hard

to keep money in the local community when we are constantly bombarded with thousands of corporate advertisements telling us that cheapness is important above all else, leading us to overlook the values that independent businesses provide us with, both as shoppers and in our community. When people shop locally it creates opportunities for local businesses to give back, which is something to think about next time your child's sports team, school or club needs sponsorship. Local business owners aren't just involved in supporting the community through financial means, but in person too, giving up their time to coach sports teams and often using their business premises to help local causes such as letting people run sausage sizzles or donating a certain amount from the sale of a product. There are examples all over Nelson of local business owners giving back to the community, such as the many clubs, charities and organisations that Bowater Toyota Nelson has been able to support in a small way during the past year, including Nelson Gi-

It’s the tale of a hero, a heroine, love, evil and everything else a Game of Thrones fan could ask for. Prince Mabon, the Quest for Rhiannon and the Dark Lord's Curse, is original in every way and has been created from scratch by a cast and crew of locals, lead by Saramea Waterman, a speech and drama coach. "The idea was really to give people who are outside of Nelson CBD the opportunity to put a show on at the Theatre Royal, so our rehearsals are held at Upper Moutere and Tasman School," says Saramea. Being a huge fan of the Vikings and Game of Thrones television series', Saramea decided it was a great time to do a production like Prince Mabon, and being partly Welsh, she decided to base the play on a collection of Celtic Welsh tales from a book called The Mabinogion, written in the 1300s. Essentially a Celtic legend with a love story at the heart, Prince Mabon features a cast of around 30 and a crew of 20, detailed costumes, realistic fight scenes and six months of research on Saramea's part.

EW Your N r fo agents cElEbratiNg 21 YEarS iN buSiNESS Dale Greaves and the team at Star Trucks International Ltd have a passion for trucks, which makes all the difference to the customer service and products their clients receive. No matter what size vehicle a business may be looking for, from van to heavy haulage, Star Trucks are proud to have something that will suit every transport requirement, their motto being, “if it’s not on the yard then we can source it”. It’s been 21 years since Star Trucks came to Nelson, although back then they were Truck Centre South Island Ltd and were an extension of the company in Tauranga where Dale was sales manager. Being the New Zealand distributor for Western Star Trucks and with marketing to the South Island done via quarterly customer calls, it was decided they needed more representation in the South Island, so Dale and Leanne made the move and started their own company, employing well known local, Graham

Thompson, (Tomo). After forming a relationship with Houston Motors, who were the only other new truck representative in Nelson, Truck Centre South Island took over the franchise for Fuso trucks. It was decided to change the name to Star Trucks International Ltd, becoming the importer for brands from Europe, Japan and the USA. Over the years, Star Trucks has taken on and said goodbye to a number of brands due to changes and compliance requirements throughout the industry. Just recently Star Trucks was once again affected by corporate changes, forcing it to leave behind Fuso and Mercedes-Benz. But when one door shuts, another door opens, this particular door opening into the well known Iveco brand. “Star Trucks was offered the opportunity to be the dealer for Iveco products, so this is an exciting time for us” says Dale.

In the workshop, Robbie Duncan and Nathan Limmer ensure every truck is presented at its best, both new and used. While Robbie is a professional truck driver who has worked with Dale for many years, Nathan lives and breathes trucks and has been working for Dale since he was at school. Now studying engineering at polytech, Nathan still spends his free time on the yard getting the

trucks ready for sale. While their business in used truck sales sees Star Trucks deal with customers from Kaitaia to Bluff, their given territory as an Iveco dealer is the top of the South Island although they continue to meet the trucking needs of long standing customers elsewhere within New Zealand with the approval of Iveco.

Chris did the event by himself and completed 21 laps, one more than the nearest team. Event organiser Wayne Pool says more than 500 people had registered to take part in the event, but due to the two-week postponement due to weather that number dropped to 430, which was still well up on last year. Wayne says all the competitors combined would ride more than 17,000km, enough to travel from Nelson to Athens. Despite the event having a mountainbike element, the highest

point of the course was ironically 22 metres above sea level, while 3.5km on yellow tape marked out the course Many teams took the chance to dress up with Pacman, Where's Wally and various super heroes all making an appearance, which adds to the event says Wayne, who completed three of his laps in a tiger suit. "You have guys like Chris Sharland who go out there and blitz it from the start and then you have mums, dads and kids who are out there doing it for their own goals."

Nelson win rugby battle, war to come Jacob Page Nelson may have won the battle but Marist will have put a little doubt in the minds of the Tasman Trophy holders despite going down 25-21 at Trafalgar Park on Saturday. The two teams will meet again in the semi-finals of the senior rugby competition in a fortnight and, while Nelson stayed composed to fight back

from a 14-6 halftime deficit to win the game, Marist’s dominance of the opening 40 minutes will be food for thought for Nelson. First half tries to Ioane Tuilagi and Misa Tabua had visiting fans thinking they were on their way to a win, before experienced heads and an improved forward effort, especially at the breakdown, and three second half tries, got

Nelson back in front. The injury toll will be a concern for Marist, with three potentially major injuries a feature of a rugged second half. The battle for fourth spot to face top qualifiers Wanderers will also go down to the final round on Saturday. Fourth placed Stoke will host fifth placed Waimea Old Boys, with the winner earning the final semi-final spot.

Waimea College Silver outlasted Nelson College for Girls 23-19 in a see-sawing senior 7 game of netball at Saxton Stadium on Saturday. Waimea scored the first four goals and looked the most promising in attack. Neither team looked after the ball in the mid-court and it showed on the scoreboard, with Waimea holding a 5-2 first quarter advantage. NCG's shaky first quarter was quickly put behind them in the second. They dominated possession and, most importantly, treasured it after they earned turnovers. They scored the first six goals after the first break, before Waimea, having seen their three goal advantage turn into a three goal deficit, went on little run of their own to even the game up at 8-8. Nelson goal shoot Hannah Sloane was instrumental in getting her team back in the contest in the second quarter. With the scores locked at 9-9 at the main break, it was Waimea who earned an early two goal advantage. It proved to be an advantage they would not relinquish.

Tasman United club captain Mark Johnston wants young players to see the new national league team as a stepping stone in their careers, rather than a final destination. Photo: Jacob Page.

Tasman United a stepping stone for young players - Johnston Tasman United club captain Mark Johnston would like to see Tasman United produce an All White in the next five years. The experienced leader believes his association with the new National League team will be the highlight of his career and he wants to see the club produce internationalquality players. “For me, from a playing perspective, I’’m expecting this to be one of the highlights of my career “The team’s foundations will be built on a strong 16 to 20-agegroup system and I expect it will be around for the next decade and building each year. “For the first year, it’s about establishing an exciting brand and getting the fans along, and from there it’s about using those experiences to build something more successful.”

Jacob Page Sports Editor

sports@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Mark says he would like to see young players use the team as a stepping stone to higher honours and believed developing higher quality footballers was more important than championships. “It would be great if Tasman United could be beating Auckland City, but I think we need a broader view and that is we need to provide a pathway for players to develop. “Tasman United can be a goal but it can’t be the final destination, it has to be a stepping stone.” Mark says, at 31, he wants to get “two or three more seasons” of football with Tasman United. He says he’d like the team to win 50 per cent of their home

games in the first season and look to build on it. Mark says despite signings being a common occurrence over the past couple of weeks, there were still chances for local players to push their claims for Tasman United selection. “There’s a full youth team, two more under-19 players to be added to the men’s squad which will be local players from Nelson or Marlborough, and three or four imports, that still leaves five or six local spots. “The door is not shut and I don’t know if that message is getting through.” Tasman United’s season will begin in November with a full youth team also set to be part of the action. Mark says the path has become easier for Tasman players to make their mark on the game.

Family legacy draws nathan gargiulo back Jacob Page

When Nathan Gargiulo returned to Nelson with his young family, he had plenty of family ties pulling him back to the Nelson Rugby Club. Nathan’s dad Tony and grandfather Calvi Ricardo played for the club, as did a myriad of uncles and great uncles. “There’s a connection there for the past 70 years, so when I came back to live in Nelson I thought there was a chance to reconnect with that part of my family history. “As a three or four-year-old I remember the days of the packet of salt and vinegar chips out on Trafalgar Park and jumping in the long jump pit, so I have fond memories of hanging around the club. “I remember going under the stands where the changing rooms used to be and going inside after dad’s games and the smell of liniment and the hum of the clubrooms. “I don’t think I appreciated it as a child, but I do looking back.”

Nathan says the success of the club this year comes from having the right mix of youth and experience on the field and a strong committee and senior leadership group driving the club forward. “There’s plenty of families like ours that go back 50 or 60 years and that is what keeps clubs like ours going. “For me, I haven’t done my time yet but there are plenty of guys who have been involved in this club for years and years. “Last year, I watched from the fringes and there was a belief that there was a special group of guys coming through for this year and I wanted to get on that bandwagon and be part of it.” Nathan often looks back to the club’s centenary book to read about the exploits of his family members. His grandfather died while he was the coach of the Nelson senior team in 1963. “For me, [the book] is the only connection I have to him, so every now and then I have a flick through it and see people my dad has told me about.”

nathan gargulio has three generations of family who have played for the nelson Rugby Club with his grandfather Calvi Ricardo gargulio and father tony having both played for the club. He often reads about his grandfather in the nelson Rugby Club centenary book. Photo: Jacob Page.

Northern Abel Tasman National Park Possum control operation As part of the ecological restoration of Abel Tasman National Park, the Department of Conservation (DOC) and Project Janszoon are planning aerial pest control to protect the Park’s native species from high possum numbers. This pest control is essential for native species recovery and ecosystem restoration. DOC and Project Janszoon intend to apply non-toxic pre-feed cereal baits during the first period of fine weather from 17th July, followed by the application of toxic baits containing sodium fluoroacetate (1080) . Description of the area Part of Abel Tasman National Park, from a line between the Awapoto hut and the Awaroa River mouth, north to Separation Point and Whariwharangi Bay, excluding all catchments into the Wainui Valley. Exclusion zones have been placed around the Totaranui campground, Whariwharangi hut and access points along the coast. During the operation, all tracks within the operational area and the roads east of Pigeon Saddle will be closed until cleared of bait. Method of control Cereal baits containing the pesticide will be distributed by helicopter over the above areas. The baits are cylindrical pellets approximately 2cm in diameter, dyed green and cinnamon lured. The pesticide is poisonous to humans and domestic animals. Always remember: • DO NOT touch bait • WATCH CHILDREN at all times • DO NOT EAT animals from this area • DEADLY TO DOGS, do not allow dogs access to animal carcasses Observe these rules wherever you see warning signs placed at public access points in the park. For further information call Senior Ranger Janszoon at the Motueka DOC Office (03 528 1810) or visit the Motueka Office, cnr King Edward and High Streets, Motueka. A detailed map of the treatment area may be viewed at the DOC Nelson Visitor Centre, and the Motueka and Takaka Offices, 11am to 3pm, Monday to Friday.
