Grant boosts plans for development of Coffs Harbour Women’s Shed

By Andrea FERRARI THE Women’s Shed project, founded by Coffs Harbour Lions Club, has received a $25,000 grant from the NSW Government’s Investing in Women Fund.

The grant will be used to put on a big workshop weekend in Coffs on July 23 and 24, which will demonstrate what the Women’s Shed plans to provide to the Coffs Coast community.

From crafts, carpentry, Aboriginal basket making, personal finances, self-defense and wellbeing, the Women’s Shed will offer a safe place to build confidence and empower women to go on to further their education or find new employment.

Plans for development of Coffs Harbour Women’s Shed

q Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh and Coffs Harbour Lions Club President Lexie Clark.

FROM Page 1 With a working title of ‘The Women’s Shed Big Weekend Out’, Women’s Shed spokesperson Alex Miller told News Of The Area the purpose of the event.

“We want to replicate what we’re trying to create in the Shed, so we can share our vision with local politicians and Women’s support services in Coffs and surrounding areas.

“We’ve already received commitment from people to run basic workshops on car and home maintenance, carpentry, upcycling, crafts and various other cultural activities.

“We will invite women of all ages and backgrounds to come and sample what the Women’s Shed is all about.

“We are planning to have food trucks and local musicians.

“Our goal is to create a huge weekend of celebration and empowerment for women.”

With the funding granted, the Women’s Shed team is now purposefully in scoping mode to make their project happen.

“The Women’s Shed is also hosting a Community Forum at the Cavanbah Centre in Coffs on 11 May at 3pm.

“It is specifically targeted to women’s support services and to engage with organisations which work with women.

“We will share our plans, get some feedback from the community and strengthen relationships.

Have you got an arts or cultural project in mind?

Does it need financial support to become a reality?

APPLY FOR THIS YEAR’S ARTS AND CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT GRANTS. As part of Coffs Harbour City Council’s commitment to the vitality of the cultural life of Coffs Harbour, there are grants ranging from $1,000 up to $7,000.

“There are a lot of great women’s services in Coffs and we need to work together to fill the gap that exists between these services and education and/or employment.

“We are hoping to confirm a panel of speakers for the forum soon,” said Alex.

Support services and businesses can register to attend through the Women’s Shed website.

“The Women’s Shed is not just about building stuff, we’re about building women.

“It’s time for women to come together and demand a women’s only safe space for women in the Coffs Coast Community.”

Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh officially congratulated the Lion’s Club and Women’s Shed team/board members.

Grant gives Coffs Coast Food & Wine Festival a big boost FROM Page 1

Amplify Events, the foodie festival organisers, have received a $225,500 funding boost from the NSW Government’s Regional Events Acceleration Fund to upscale the original plan for the festival.

Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh officially congratulated Amplify Events on this important funding injection for the festival, which will be celebrated across various local venues from 4-13 June.

“The Coffs Coast Food & Wine Festival will become a significant event on our social calendar, and it will be a major drawcard for local foodies and visitors who are set to spend up in local shops, cafes and businesses,” said Mr Singh.

Speaking on behalf of the festival, Lindsay Russell, Coffs Coast Food & Wine Festival Director, told News Of The Area, “This grant is allowing us to celebrate the Coffs Coast foodie scene with the addition of a finale weekend boasting live music, food trucks and more.

“We will be able to boost tourism and showcase what this region has to offer to a larger audience.

“Plus, aren't we all in need of more live music after these past few years,” she said.

The festival will be a mixture of dining sessions, workshops and digital

experiences, featuring live music and art installations to create an immersive, multisensory dining experience.

“This State Government funding will help take the festival and live music performances for each dining experience to the next level,” added Mr Singh.

Amplify Events Director Dave Mansfield said, “We’re extremely excited to bring the Coffs Coast Food & Wine Festival to life right across the whole region from Bellingen to Woolgoolga and locations in between, culminating in a multi-day food and music festival at Jetty Beach House, Coffs Harbour.

“It’s been a really difficult time for hospitality businesses over the past few years, and the Festival aims to shine a light on the fantastic food scene in the region and

showcase top restaurants, bars and producers to both locals and domestic visitors.

“With the support of the NSW Government, this event will be a great opportunity to

celebrate and enjoy the best that this region has to offer.”

On the recommendation of Council staff, Cr Cecato moved that Council authorise an extension to the current lease for a period of two years to enable an Expression of Interest process to be completed.

Cr Cecato said that Council needed to create an environment for businesses to flourish.

Cr Pryce, who seconded the motion, said that a long lease would cut across the community consultation process.

“We need to know what the community wants,” he said.

There was concern expressed that the Club had been previously offered a 21-year lease but was

now being offered only a two-year plan because of considerations that have not yet been finalised.

However, all Councillors recognised that, while the CHYC had Council’s support, current plans for the Jetty Foreshore precluded a long lease.

The motion was passed unanimously.

Yacht Club Lease Extended By Two Years

By Andrew VIVIAN

COFFS Harbour City Council granted a twoyear extension to the Coffs Harbour Yacht Club (CHYC) at its meeting on 24 March.

John Wait, Commodore of the Coffs Harbour Yacht Club, a Founding Member and Life Member for more than 60 years, addressed

Friday, 1 April 2022

Council at the meeting.

He told Councillors that the Club had received two letters offering a lease extension of 21 years.

He explained that the Club was initially established by volunteers in 1961 and the existing building was constructed in 1974.

Mr Wait outlined the

Club’s history and its involvement in extensive training activities in the community.

He pointed out that the CHYC has approximately 1000 members and employs up to 60 staff.

The CHYC asked for a minimum 21-year lease for the Club to develop in the future.

Dismay Over Facebook Post

By Andrew VIVIAN A SINCE deleted post on a Facebook page called ‘Coffs Harbour Nationals’ has warned potential Federal Election voters to “not to be conned by the enormous amount of money being spent by the forces of the Evil Far Left to get another ‘independent’ in our Cowper!”.

The post also extolled the merits of the current Member for Cowper Pat Conaghan.

A spokesperson for Mr Conaghan said that the Facebook page was administered by an individual, does not use an official National Party email address and was not vetted by the party.

The spokesperson said that Mr Conaghan had asked for the post to be removed as soon as he became aware of it, and had approached Independent candidate for Cowper Carolyn Heise to express his disappointment.

Needless to say, Ms Heise was not happy with being labelled as a puppet of the ‘Evil Far Left’.

Ms Heise is a former Director of Nursing and Midwifery at the Coffs Harbour Health Campus and volunteer director of the NSW Cancer Council.

She said she was shocked and dismayed when she saw the post.

“I honestly didn’t expect The Nationals would so misjudge my supporters before the election has even been called, but there it was, in black and white,” Ms Heise said.

“On behalf of the hundreds of everyday people in Cowper who have donated to my campaign, I say shame on The Nationals for making such baseless accusations.

“The mums and dads, the retirees, grandparents, farmers and business people who have chipped in between $20 to $800 to support my campaign are not part of any ‘Evil

Ms Heise said her supporters were “simply hardworking people who want politics done differently, with honesty, respect and fairness”.

“To me it is rather strange that a party which takes huge donations from dirty polluters and massive corporations that profit from the misery inflicted by gambling, smoking and alcohol, would criticise my supporters for being part of a genuine grassroots campaign.”

Ms Heise said that many of her supporters also took exception to the post's reference to “our Cowper”. “(It is) as if they owned the electorate like it was a trophy or possession.

“It is time Cowper was returned to the people who live here.

“They deserve a future which is not dictated by the demands made by dirty donors of the parties they control.”

Politics In The Sand At Emerald Beach

By Andrew VIVIAN

HANABETH Luke joined Emerald Beach locals for ‘Politics in the Sand’ on Sunday, March 20 for a surf and ‘meet and greet’.

Ms Luke is a senior lecturer in Science and Regenerative Agriculture at Southern Cross University who announced her candidacy for the Federal seat of Page on 27 January, and has been endorsed by Voices for Page.

She told News Of The Area, “I was frustrated

by Barnaby Joyce and the National Party and their

approach to climate change.

“I teach students who are on the land and they wrote heart-breaking assessments about their experiences.

“When Barnaby Joyce said that emissions can’t be cut because it would affect farmers I realised that he wasn’t representing them.

“The money given away to coal and gas should be given to farmers.

“It’s $10 billion, $4 dollars a day per Australian,” she said.

Once she decided to run, Ms Luke said she began to find out more about the

electorate.

It shocked her to find that Page is the eighth poorest electorate in the country and has been going backwards under the current government.

Ms Luke said, “As an academic, I have to prove everything I say or publish, and I didn’t realise that politicians and political parties can say whatever they like.

“We need integrity in politics and if people like me don’t stand up nothing’s going to change,” she said.

Ms Luke said that the housing crisis in Page has

Council Unanimously Supports Koalas

By Andrew VIVIAN

COFFS Harbour City Council unanimously resolved to support a Great Koala National Park at its recent meeting on Thursday, 24 March.

There were two public submissions before the Council discussed and voted on the proposal.

Dave Wood of Boambee East told Council that the Coffs area is regarded as the largest remaining area of regional koala significance in New South Wales, with 76 percent of the remaining koala hubs being on the MidNorth Coast.

He said that a proposed bill to be presented to the NSW Parliament will legislate for job transition from forestry to tourism.

Mr Wood pointed out that

q Councillors Jonathan Cassell (right), Tegan Swan (centre) and Sally Townley at a previous Council meeting.

Coffs Harbour City Council has a history of supporting koala conservation but anecdotal evidence indicates that koala numbers have reduced in the past 10 to 15 years.

He said, “We need to back it and deliver a strong voice to our State Government that in this part of the state, we care about koalas and they need to start acting rather than just talking.”

Councillor Jonathan Cassell moved a motion ‘That Council supports the creation of the Great Koala National Park and writes to the NSW Environment Minister the Hon. James Griffin MP expressing the Council’s support for the creation of the Great Koala National Park’.

His motion included riders that Council requests that the NSW Government

offers a comprehensive industry transition package for affected workers, that significant investment is offered to the region to build the necessary park infrastructure for the new national park and that funding is provided to expand the forest plantation sector locally to ensure the long term viability of the forestry sector.

After some debate, the motion was lost by three votes to five.

However, Councillor Sally Townley had foreshadowed a motion that altered ‘the Great Koala National Park’ to ‘a Great Koala National Park’ without the riders.

This motion was carried unanimously.

Cr Cassell said support for koala conservation and eco-tourism is increasingly

“Climate change, the pandemic, property economics, tax policies, market conditions, scarce

economic incentives for developers to build more affordable homes all play a part,” she said.

Council’s Affordable Housing and Homelessness Policies

By Andrew VIVIAN

AFFORDABLE housing and homelessness have been recognised as major issues on the Coffs Coast for a significant period of time, and the Coffs Harbour City Council recently adopted two policies to address them.

Coffs Harbour Mayor Paul Amos said, “Our new Affordable Housing and Homelessness Policies set out Council’s direction and responsibilities and will help start to identify the opportunities open to us to influence the supply of more affordable homes and the social housing that local families need.”

Council’s Acting Director, Sustainable Communities, Nikki Greenwood, acknowledged

q Council will support and encourage governments and developers to increase affordable housing.

encourage developers to consider affordable and diverse housing solutions through planning controls as well as working in partnership with housing providers to assist them in providing more social housing, such as the collaboration with the NSW Government on the Argyll Estate.

She said Council can also lobby the State and Federal Governments with the community’s concerns and request changes to their current housing policies and strategies The Affordable Housing Policy states that Council will look for opportunities to partner with and/or support Government and the affordable housing sector to assist them to deliver affordable housing.

how that should be worked out isn’t settled, all of the Councillors recognise the positive economic and conservation value of a Great Koala National Park, which is now Council’s official position,” he continued.

“This is an excellent start

Council will advocate to State and Federal Governments to develop and implement policy positions that improve the availability of affordable housing.

Council will encourage and facilitate the provision of affordable and diverse housing through its local planning controls alongside adopted environmental and transport objectives and encourage and promote development opportunities provided by State and local planning instruments.

The policy requires the Council to consider the impact its decisions will have on the supply of affordable housing in the local government area.

Council’s next stage in the process is to undertake a detailed examination of other more proactive opportunities that may be available to help deliver affordable housing locally.

The Council says its Homelessness Policy is a first step in establishing

“I’m very happy for our Council and look forward to when this park finally gets approved,” he said.

Council’s role in encouraging collaboration, community partnerships and evidence-based practices to prevent, reduce and manage homelessness.

It informs Council’s actions aimed at preventing, reducing and managing homelessness.

In broad terms, Council will support and build capacity within the community to address homelessness and will develop the equity and prosperity of the city and design, develop and manage public space.

Council will now work with the local Homelessness Service Sector to develop a Sector Action Plan to support and strengthen community efforts to reduce and prevent homelessness locally.

Councillor Tony Judge said, “It’s a very good start but we need to develop a plan for action and take advantage of opportunities as they arise.”

GoFundMe launches for Bourkey

By Andrea FERRARI

Sandy Beach fiancé, father, son and loved local Michael ‘Bourkey’ Bourke lost his life in a vehicle accident on the afternoon of 24 March 2022.

q Michael Bourke was described as “one in a million”.

SANDY Beach fiancé, father, son and loved local Michael ‘Bourkey’ Bourke lost his life in a vehicle accident on the afternoon of 24 March 2022.

Michael had gone down to Sydney to pick up a motorbike he had purchased.

He was riding his new bike home and at Tea Gardens was hit by another vehicle that claimed his and another woman’s life.

The driver who caused the accident underwent mandatory testing and the investigation is still open.

His devastated family are

Michael’s funeral is planned for Monday 4 April.

Michael’s friend Jacob Howland has created a GoFundMe page with all funds going towards fiancée Maddy's ongoing living costs and their little son Hudson's upbringing.

“Michael dedicated fifteen years to Community Care Options as an aged and disability care worker,” Jacob told News Of The Area.

“He was a valued member of both the organisation and the community.

“He was one in a million,

the kind of person that would go out of his way for anyone close to him or who needed it, the kind of person that would be the brightest spark in a room, always quick with a joke and could make anyone laugh and smile.

“Coffs Harbour will shine a little less bright without him around, but I guess that shows how much he meant to everyone, and how he will be remembered by all who had the pleasure to know this beautiful man.”

The best way to bee

By Andrea FERRARI

THE Mid North Coast Amateur Beekeepers’ March meeting was held recently at the Christian Community School at Bonville.

The meeting was the group’s first since December, owing to fears of Covid-19, and was attended by approximately 40 enthusiastic members.

“We also welcomed a few first-time visitors,” Allan Thomas, President, told News Of The Area.

After the usual important

reports from the Treasurer Merridy Huxley and Secretary Monica Rich, Allan conducted a presentation on small hive beetles.

“These beetles have been adversely impacting many hives on the coast this year, due to the warm, moist conditions.

“The beetles were accidentally introduced to Australia approximately 20 years ago, possibly on cargo from overseas.

“They fly to hives, mostly morning and dusk.

“Upon entering, they lay

eggs which proceed to hatch into ‘maggot’ like larvae.

“The larvae burrow through the honeycomb, eating pollen, honey, bee larvae and eggs but that is not all.

“They defecate and carry a yeast which can send the hive putrid.

“Once fully fed, the beetle larvae exit the hive and pupate in the soil.

“In due course, they hatch and fly to find hives and so the cycle continues.

“Conditions become so foul for the bees, that they

“Remaining honey is too spoiled to use,” explained Allan.

Allan also spoke about actions that beekeepers could use to manage their hives to assist in avoiding a catastrophic loss.

BPW Annual Scholarship Applications Open

By Andrew VIVIAN EACH year Business and Professional Women (BPW) Coffs Harbour supports two recipients with scholarships in the culminating year of their tertiary study.

The awards, the Maude Spielvogel Scholarship ($1250) and the Wendy Martin Education Encouragement Award ($750), honour former BPW members, two women who were passionate about education.

As a global organisation, the intentions of BPW

are underpinned by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

This scholarship programme aligns with goal number four, ‘Ensuring an inclusive and equitable quality education and promotion of life-long learning for all’.

Past scholarship winners have come from diverse areas of study including: psychology, online games development, aged care, midwifery, disability nursing, marine science and art.

Applicants need to be

intricacies of the hives that could be managed to make them stronger and more productive.

“This often means looking for signs of an inferior or failing queen, the nutritional status of the hive and of course signs of any diseases or pests,” he said.

The meeting ended with a ‘lucky draw’.

Prizes consisted of donations from members topped with extra items

purchased by the club.

The Mid North Coast Amateur Beekeepers’ meeting, apart from being very sociable, is an excellent way to further your beekeeper knowledge.

The next meeting will be the second weekend in April.

THE first-ever garage sale held by The Coffs Harbour Creative Arts Group (CHCAG) is on Sunday, 3 April at the Coffs Harbour Showground Gallery.

CHCAG President Sue Roberts said, “Who doesn’t love a garage sale?

“There’ll be household items, books, art supplies, canvases, frames, and a whole lot more available on the day,” she told News Of The Area.

Class teacher Mrs Christabel Martin told News Of The Area, “The competition entry came about because we have been looking at natural disasters and community involvement and it dovetailed nicely with what the class had been learning.”

Two other class groups, one from Victoria and another from NSW also put forward the name in the competition.

BDC Principal Mr Nick Johnstone said that the studies into natural disaster and community responses had been backed up by visits and talks from parents involved in disaster relief organisations such as the Rural Fire Service (RFS) and the State Emergency Service (SES).

The aircraft, designated the National Large Air Tanker, will be available to augment aerial firefighting throughout the country when needed, and will carry the new name for the next two years.

Students in the class asked a wide range of detailed questions of the Minister, eliciting information such as the tankers capacity of 15,000 litres of water or flame retardant chemicals, which it can dump in 30 seconds, and that the plane has a very quick turn around time when refilling and taking off again.

Borderline exhibition opens at Urunga

The Borderline art exhibition opens at The Art Space at Urunga on 9 April.

By Andrea FERRARI

THE Borderline art exhibition opens at The Art Space at Urunga on 9 April.

Borderline was conceived and coordinated by Adrienne Hmelnitsky, one of The Art Space’s founding members and an award-winning sculptor.

In curating this exhibition Adrienne’s passion for soulstirring art is reflected in an exceptional collection of drawings, paintings, sculptures, photographs, prints and multimedia works.

For an artist, a themed show is a chance to revel in pure creativity: to follow a concept where it will lead without focusing on commercial concerns.

It’s a chance to play and expand technically and creatively.

When pondering what theme to set for this exhibition Adrienne chose the single word ‘Borderline’, a word that she personally felt would inspire literal, psychological,

and emotional responses by the artists.

“I knew it would be broadly interpreted, giving the artists freedom to explore a myriad of ideas and directions with their artworks,” Adrienne said.

“The selected artists were chosen because I respect and admire their art and art practices,” said Adrienne.

“They are highly acclaimed in their individual discipline and this show exhibits the extraordinary diversity, both in the media used and conceptually, of the work they have produced.”

Freedom Summers from Repton told News Of The Area

(NOTA), “I have responded to the theme using sculpture, photography and line.

“The borderline I propose in my work is in the deeper realm of existence, where lies the border between awareness and form.

“It is an abstract response to the space within the great mystery.”

Commenting to NOTA, Coramba artist Catherine Scarborough said, “Adrienne has taken me under her wing as an emerging artist.

“Being invited to be in the Borderline exhibition was very exciting and set in motion a whole body of work considering how to respond to

the title.

“I am pleased with the results, which are relevant to current affairs and their historical context.”

Join the artists on Opening Night on Saturday 9 April from 5pm – 7pm.

To browse at your leisure, the exhibition runs from 9 April until 30 April, opening hours 10am – 4pm, seven days a week.

Opening hours are 10 - 4, seven days a week at The Art Space, 13 Bonville St, Urunga.

It is a not-to-be-missed display of fine arts that is not only original but thought provoking and emotionally powerful.

Connect through play at the Neighbourhood Centre

By Andrea FERRARI

EASTER provides inspiration for a series of free family art and food workshops, exploring ways to play using everyday objects, this upcoming school holiday period.

The family fun activities will include creating games, fun food activities, cup-cake decorating and as a Mother’s Day special, making a 3D flower artwork.

“Having extra time during the school holidays provides a great opportunity to connect with others in your community in a relaxed and friendly environment,” Di Woods, Manager at Coffs Harbour Neighbourhood Centre, told News Of The Area.

The Coffs Harbour Neighbourhood Centre provides a welcoming space for families in a central location at the Community Village.

“The activities, if possible, will be held outdoors making use of the weather and the beautiful Community Village gardens.

“Healthy connections made through activities help to strengthen our physical and mental health.

“Relationships with others in the community are known to lower levels of anxiety and depression, and raise self-esteem.

“If you would like to meet new people and connect with your child in a fun environment, this is a great opportunity to do so,

considering the culturally rich community we have here in Coffs Harbour.”

Jack Hodges, Community Worker with Coffs Harbour Neighbourhood Centre, told News Of The Area, “Activities are designed to allow creative expression and the opportunity for children to develop imagination and problem solving skills.

“The activities linking to special celebrations aim to recognise and reinforce that their efforts are valued.

“Being involved with children in creative activities helps children develop their individual identity and can also provide a way for people to express emotions in unique ways,” he said.

Children aged 5-14 years are encouraged to

“Visiting Bundjalung family after the flooding was overwhelming.

“We know there are emergency services and resources available, but most are not accessible to mob.

“Most of these services and resources are not safe spaces for mob.

“We only get help when we help each other, which is exactly what the Koori Mail has done.

“Those who are already faced with systemic racism, discrimination and adversity are feeling the effects of this disaster a lot harder.

“So, this is a call out to the wider community to give.

“Donate your time, energy, supplies, money.”

Musician DJ RedBelly Blak commented on the day, “Big love to OneMob Radio for organising this.

“I’ll be spinning tonight alongside some amazing artists.”

Across the day, OneMob Radio raised $3,462.38.

The organisers are still confirming other donations and will inform everyone shortly.

Maddox joins the Mullet Chop MOMENTUM is building for Nigel Tweddle’s mullet chop fundraiser for Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

With the chop taking place on Saturday, 2 April at Toormina Hotel, scores of friends, fans and potential foes have bought tickets in a bid to score themselves the scissors to chop Nigel’s marvellous mullet right off.

And now there’s another

opportunity to whip off a magnificent mini-mullet.

Maddox Cocks from Sawtell has put his hair up to raise even more money for MND and he has a heartfelt, family reason for doing so.

Maddox told News Of The Area, "I want to do this to get money for research about what my grandma died from so maybe other people might not lose people they love.

“Imagine being told you are dying.

“Your body is eventually going to suffocate you, and yet still having to try and be strong each day.

“My mum Jenene was so strong and never ever complained, she fought for five long years to stay with us as long as possible.

“She was a very healthy and fit 41-year-old when she was diagnosed.

“Sadly, she has missed our weddings and the births of all of her eight grandchildren.

“She's missed seeing us graduate from university, buy and sell houses, start businesses, win awards and all of the things parents should get to rejoice in.

Fundraiser Sale for overnight homeless shelter

By Andea FERRARI

MOTORING on with her project to create an overnight shelter for the homeless in Coffs Harbour, Doris Cowan has been well supported by the local community with donations of goods galore.

“In fact we have been given so much household wares that we have way too much at the moment as we are still searching for suitable premises – which is proving more challenging than we anticipated.

“We have clothing, bedding, kitchenware, toys and a whole lot more, all kindly donated by the Coffs community to help with the opening of our 3R’s - Rest Refuel Recover - overnight homeless shelter.

“Due to the overwhelming response, we are able to utilise some of these donations to fundraise.

“We’ve come up with the idea of a market stall at Jetty Markets on Sunday 3 April where we can sell the donations and raise much-needed funds for the homeless.

“Everything will be priced $10 or less.”

A raffle will also be available to raise money for Doris’ 3R’s overnight homeless shelter, which she has high hopes will be opening soon.

$10,000 raised at North Coast V-Twins

By David WIGLEY

WHEN the 2008 Daytona winning motorcycle was exhibited at North Coast V-Twins last week, it was an opportunity for Ashley Beaton and the team at V-Twins to raise money for victims of the recent floods.

The iconic motorcycle was specifically built for Craig McMartin by Australian motorcycle makers Irving Vincent to take over to America to compete in the Daytona Battle of the Twins, which it won.

Only five people have had the privilege of riding the iconic motorcycle including motorcycling legend Alan Cathcart, Beau Beaton and his father Ashley Beaton, and it was the centrepiece at the charity auction

which helped to raise over $10,000 for flood victims.

Having strong community ties on the Mid North Coast, owner Ashley Beaton and his team at V-Twins knew they could use this opportunity to help friends and families affected by the recent floods.

“When the Horner Brothers, Ken and Barry, generously offered to make a pit-stop at our store with these iconic motorcycles, I knew that it would generate a lot of interest from our strong two-wheeled family.

“It was something special to share with our community.

“With little time to spare the team managed to pull together a VIP night at our Orlando Street showroom, with an auction

list that was sure to see some serious bidding competition from the crowd,” said Beaton.

One of the most sought items at the auction was the one-of-one original Irving Vincent/Beau Beaton framed and signed memorabilia.

After a frantic round of bidding from the crowd, the gavel went down and the item went home with Robert Cooper, that item alone raising $1,200 for flood victims.

Other items included a Sydney Motorsport Track Day, weekend escapes to the Hunter Valley, and local restaurant vouchers from Latitude 30 and Brooklyn’s Burger Bar to name a few.

Ashley Beaton paid tribute to the local businesses that helped make the fundraiser a success.

“The event will take place outside, near the water wise garden in the Botanic Gardens.

“The kids will be sitting under marquees which will be kindly donated by the Botanic Gardens, to cover the kids in all kinds of weather.

“The Easter egg hunt will be at the end of both sessions.”

The hunt will take place amongst the water wise garden for kids to explore.

Easter Craft workshop is open to kids aged five to ten.

Participants will be able to book into one of the two sessions available.

Session One from 9am-10am or Session Two from 2pm- 3pm.

Once funded the Children’s Garden will provide a dedicated space for environmental education for visiting School groups.

The area will include an education centre to facilitate workshops, a nature outdoor play area and digging garden for children to learn how to compost and grow plants.

Celebrating 85 Years

COFFS COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

The Coffs Harbour Hotel - A Remarkable

By David WIGLEY

OPENED ON 1 APRIL 1937, the Coffs Hotel this week celebrates a remarkable 85 year history which started in 1908 when a penniless 12-year-old boy from Greece travelled alone to Sydney on a German boat to reunite with his brother.

The frightened boy, who couldn’t speak a word of English, nervously made his way through the crowd at Pyrmont clutching his world of possessions, a battered suitcase and two florins, in search of his elder brother who arrived a few months earlier.

Nick and his older brother Peter grew up in a large family on the Greek island of Kythera and it was through poverty, political unrest and a lack of opportunities they made their separate ways to Australia.

When Nick and Peter reunited in Sydney they looked for employment opportunities and headed to the mining boom town of Cobar where new mines were opening every day.

Nick’s son John Gleeson

provided News Of The Area with newspaper clippings which included an interview with his father in the Bellingshire Supplement in the early 1980s to help retell this remarkable story.

After several months in the mining town of Cobar, Nick and Peter Gleeson managed to save a few pounds and Peter decided they should return to Sydney.

Nick worked 104 hours a week at a restaurant in Erskine Street where he received ten shillings per week which included his keep and half a day off each week.

“I had an account in the Government Savings Bank and it became a ritual to head for the bank during my time off the job. ”Nowadays people are astonished when you talk about 104 hours and a bob a week, but I was still only thirteen and I couldn’t imagine a lad of my age earning that much in Greece.

“Besides, I was in a fairly happy position, a woman came in each week to do our washing, we wore waiters’ white shirts of course

22 COFFS COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

and I was among people I understood.

“Also I had something that was a bit of a rarity then - three square meals a day, I’d have been lucky to get three a week back at Kythera,” said Nick.

At the tender age of thirteen, Nick recognised that his stumbling English was a handicap so he headed to Tamworth to work in a restaurant and learn English.

“I used to work all day and night but a period was set aside for me to attend a convent school nearby and for something over a year, I learned what ‘hard yakka’ can mean.

“And to this day I can’t decide which was harder - serving in the restaurant or wrestling with English language at school,” said Nick.

By the age of 15 Nick was speaking and writing his new language very well and decided to venture into unknown territory once more - Coffs Harbour.

“I heard about a place where there seemed to be opportunities.

“It was a sleepy little

coastal town where ships sometimes called in on their voyages to Sydney and Brisbane.

“There was said to be a lot of promising country being opened up to the west of the village, especially on the plateau above the surrounding mountains.

“The name of the place was Coffs Harbour,” he said.

For the first time in his life, Nick could afford a holiday so he went back to see his brother in Sydney before embarking on the ‘Numinbah’ a well known ship in the coastal trade and sailed to Coffs Harbour.

Nick eventually arrived in Coffs Harbour at 5 o’clock in the morning but due to difficulties with the bar the ship was unable to dock so he arrived on the shores in a basket.

Nick’s first job was with two Greek gentlemen who conducted a mixed business in Moonee Street near the Fitzroy Hotel.

Nick worked industriously and saved enough money to set up his own business.

At the time, the road from Coramba to Dorrigo

was being built and word was going around that Dorrigo was an up and coming place so at the age of 17 with a heart full of hope, Nick bought a horse and rode to Dorrigo.

After travelling the world and progressing through New South Wales through ‘hard yakka’, Nick quickly found a shop to lease on the main street of Dorrigo from a local resident named George Ross.

The Gleeson Brothers

Oyster Shop in Dorrigo was established.

Nick called for his brother to join him so Peter left his job in Sydney and the brothers reunited in Dorrigo where they formed the Gleeson family business.

“My reunion with Peter was very different from that cold day at Pyrmont five years before, we were now able to look forwards to the future with a lot more confidence than we had then,” said Nick.

The brothers started a business hauling goods from Bellingen to Dorrigo making the frequent

e History Of Hard Yakka strenuous trip up Dorrigo mountain through an ill-defined boulderstrewn track.

“I don’t know who was more tired when we finished those trips, sometimes I’d spell the horse and sometimes he’d spell me.

“On one occasion we nearly came to grief at Gordonville; the river was in flood and as we crossed I noticed that the horse was starting to swim and that he was being swept down-stream.

“It looked like curtains for both of us, but luckily he found a footing on a submerged sand spit and we managed to struggle ashore.

“Another time I had just reached the top of the mountain when a violent storm overtook us.

“I got lost in the cemetery and ran into another chap who was lost too, when we came face to face in the gloom we frightened the living daylights out of each other,” said Nick.

Through ‘hard yakka’ the brothers thrived and extended their business buying a restaurant in Bellingen and ran two other businesses.

In 1918 Nick was naturalised in Bellingen and in 1919 obtained a drivers licence and bought a new car, a rare novelty back then.

“It was a Buick Tourer, I paid 425 pounds for it and used it to convey the goods I’d previously carried on

the cart to Dorrigo.

“Then three years later I sold it to George Purves, the Bellingen baker for 425 pounds. The price of cars had gone up in the meantime.

“It was a condition of the contract of sale that I had to drive George to North Beach every Sunday because he hadn’t learnt to drive, it suited me, I caught plenty of jewies and whiting there,” he said.

In the 1920’s the brothers sold their Bellingen

and Dorrigo businesses and ventured into the hotel business, purchasing the Urunga Hotel.

“The hotel was a popular holiday rendezvous for tram and train employees from Sydney, very few people could afford to travel then, but those chaps used to get a free train ticket each year and they used to head to Urunga.”

The brothers had acquired holdings of land and bought the licence of the Hotel in Repton which

they transferred to establish the Coffs Harbour Hotel, but they had to wait because there was no water supply.

Eventually the new hotel was built and named the Coffs Harbour Hotel.

Nick recalled with pride that he supplied the money to build the original bowling green in Coffs Harbour and was one of the first members of the club.

Nick married in 1933 to an Australian girl of Greek parentage Kalomira Comino, whereas Peter

returned to Greece in 1930 to meet his bride.

Nick had three children - a son John, and two Daughters Angela and Helen who went to Urunga Primary School and went on to study at Sydney University.

Nick was noted for his generosity, and a Urunga business man once said, “Whenever there is a worthy cause to be supported, Nick Gleeson is always the first to put his hand in his pocket.”

Peter Glesson passed away in 1956 and Nick Gleeson passed away in 1987, but the ownership of the Hotel has remained in the Gleeson family ever

since.

John Gleeson used two words to describe his father’s remarkable story “hard work”.

“My father arrived in Australia in 1908 with nothing but a hard work ethic and he frequently used the term ‘hard yakka’.

“He had an interesting life which made me understand how lucky we are in Australia.

“He always stressed, if you want to succeed you have to work for it, there is no easy way but your number one priority should be your family,” said John.

Celebrating 85 Years The Coffs Hotel and Community Sport

By David WIGLEY

THE Phillips family took over the Coffs Hotel on 4 March 1996 and from their first year have supported community sports including football, rugby league and union, cricket, netball, hockey, horse racing and a Sikh tug of war team.

In his first year at the pub, Marty Phillips recalls being approached by the local football club.

“Andrew Clark, the captain of Coffs United Football Club popped into the pub in 1997 and asked if we could sponsor the club.

“We have sponsored a lot of community sports teams

since 1996 including the mighty Orara Valley Axemen, oztag, Coffs Comets, Bellingen Magpies, Bellingen Braves Basketball, the Woolgoolga Seahorses under their mighty coach Peter Barrett, hockey, netball, and we have been sponsoring Nana Glen Cricket Club for the past four years.

“Steve Knight carried the Olympic baton through the pub on the way to the Sydney Olympics and we had a big party in the beer garden to celebrate, so many good memories,” said Marty.

Coffs United players past and present were at the pub in force last friday as they celebrated the life of one of their fallen soldiers Ronny

‘Razor’ Hansford, a larger than life gentleman who supported Coffs United every chance he got and loved watching his son Nathan, daughter in law Stacey and grandchildren Miller and Ozzie play football.

The iconic pub has been a meeting place for sports teams, a relationship Marty has helped foster over 26 years.

Nana Glen Cricket Club had a stellar campaign, winning the minor premiership and going undefeated all season, but on Friday night’s instead of delivering bouncers they bring home the bacon by raising money for community sports selling tickets for the meat tray. q Coffs Cup Day with Donna Phillips (in green).

“Jimmy Barnes was the loudest, wow what a voice, he was brilliant.

“Russell Crowe loved coming down with his band ‘Thirty Odd Foot OF Grunts’.

“Russell used to bring some of his mates like Tom Cruise to the pub, nobody used to bother them, we just

enjoyed the atmosphere of the pub."

Coffs City United coach Glen Williams recalls a funny encounter with one of Rusell Crowe’s celebrity friends.

“It was a Friday night, the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000, I was doing the meat raffle for the football club and I asked Russell Crowe and his guest Meg Ryan if they wanted to buy a ticket for the meat raffle.

“Russell bought a ticket but Meg Ryan couldn’t believe we were selling tickets to win a tray of meat.

“They obviously don’t

have meat raffles in America and it was hilarious that she said ‘You are raffling raw meat in a pub? Do you cook it for me?’,” laughed Glen.

Robert Bradford has provided entertainment at the Coffs Hotel for 23 years and showed his gratitude to the Phillips family.

“The Phillips family have been wonderful and Marty has been accommodating to many requests to hold events for the community, one of my latest being a Wednesday afternoon karaoke for (people with) special needs from 1pm,” said Robert.

26 St Patrick’s Days

By David WIGLEY

26 YEARS ago, when the Phillips family took over the lease at the Coffs Hotel, they inherited a larger than life tennant called Dennis ‘Irish’ Colman Burns who shaped the future of the pub.

The charm of Irish was intoxicating and Marty chuckles when he recalls the history of how the pub became an Irish pub.

“Irish was a true character who lived upstairs in the pub for many years.

“In 1996 we were celebrating my wife Donna’s birthday, drinking cans of Guinness.

“I said ‘Where’s Irish?’ and somebody answered ‘He’s down the Planto because they have Guinness on tap’.

“Irish told me rather bluntly that we needed

Guinness on tap.

“Our first St Paddy’s Day was massive, every man and his dog was there.

“Our local member Andrew Fraser was there and Gary Ledden from Star FM said ‘You’re onto a winner here Marty, you gotta do another one real soon’.

Marty recollected the night the British Lions rugby team lit up the pub.

“One year the British Lions joined us as they toured Australia, wow they could drink.

“It was one of the best nights as far as atmosphere goes by far, they said the beer was so cheap they bought two pints at a time,” he said.

However, the last couple of years have stirred mixed emotions through the pandemic.

“2022 St Patrick’s was a different kettle of fish, I had a whirlpool of emotions, for the first time, I was nervous nobody would show up.

“I was really proud of the community and everyone involved with the pub, we’ve seen the lows as well as the highs but the pandemic has been the toughest for the pub.

“My wife (Donna) has been an inspiration since day one and the backbone of the pub, which I thank her for dearly.

“We don’t know how many more St Paddy’s we have to look forward to, it’s in the lap of the Gods.”

“It was a mammoth effort, we lost a lot of the Irish memorabilia and the original decoration but we saved the pub.

“We’ve had devastating floods over the years and even seen cars floating down the Pacific Highway.

“Covid-19 was a different challenge because fixing the problem was out of our hands, we just had to abide by the law and close the doors.

“The NSW and Federal government did a great job, my employees got paid whilst the doors were shut and if it wasn’t for that assistance we wouldn’t have had any staff to reopen the pub with.

“The people we have met over the years have been incredible, that’s my strongest memory, hopefully the journey will continue as I’ve just had two new knees and look forward to skating around the hotel in the role of publican,” said Marty.

CHATS’ 'One Random Act: One Act Play Festival' delights audience

By David TUNE

CHATS Productions 'One Random Act: One Act Play Festival' opened at the Jetty Memorial Theatre last Friday night.

Five diverse short plays were presented, four comedies and one beautifully poignant true story, taking the audience on a journey of laughter and tears.

First up was ‘Bad Auditions by Bad Actors’ directed by Trudy Jeffery, written by Ian McWethy, a somewhat manic portrayal of the worst audition experiences that can happen in community theatre.

Trudy’s inclusive cast delivered a feast of comedy with the characters portrayed brilliantly, with some players taking on two roles.

The energy and comedy on stage were greeted with gales of laughter, this was a fantastic start to the production.

Next was ’21 Chump Street’, a short musical comedy written by Lin Manuel Miranda and

directed by Rebecca Riches.

This presentation also delivered high energy and laughter with some soaring vocals, intriguing and rapidly developing plot, and crisp choreography.

Rebecca’s cast features fabulous up and coming actors in a fast paced and engaging performance.

After intermission director Bec Pakes shared the stage with Annamarie Cohen (who delivered two characters in ‘Bad Auditions’ earlier) in the Australian comedy ‘Two Women and a Chair’, by Michael Olsen.

The laughter continued with this rollercoaster ride of emotions and interaction between two aspiring actors waiting for an audition, as both players delivered knockout performances.

This was a great example of minimalist theatre at its best.

Becky Cole delivered her self-written solo work, ‘Sister Kenny’, a fabulous creation around the true story of the Australian polio pioneer, who challenged the medical establishment and revolutionised the treatment

of this devastating disease in children.

This stunning creative piece mesmerised the audience and moved many to tears.

The final play was Chekhov’s ‘The Bear’, directed by Lily Tasker and

featuring two trained and highly talented actors and a new up and coming player.

The intensity of this play had the audience glued to the action and enjoying the fast-paced comedy.

The play raced through the developing plot and

q Director Trudy Jeffery (centre right) with her cast for the one act play ‘Bad Auditions

delivered an unexpected ending as the punch line.

A classic work of clever theatre, this performance rounded out an eclectic and delightfully engaging set of theatrical works.

Audience feedback was extremely positive, with

many remarking that they were hugely impressed with the level of talent on and behind the stage.

There are four shows this weekend, tickets from https://www.jettytheatre. com/one-random-act-oneact-play-festival/.

Russell Morris gig relocated to Moonee Beach Hotel

ENTERTAINMENT EATERY THE scheduled appearance of Australian music legend Russell Morris on Sunday April 3 at the Botanic Gardens has been relocated to the Moonee Beach Hotel due to concerns over wet weather.

Event Promoter John Logan of John Logan Entertainment (JLE) said, “After the rain of last weekend and the expected rain this weekend, we decided an undercover venue might be a better option.

“We didn’t want people

sitting in the wet so we got on the phone and the management of Moonee Beach Hotel agreed to give us their Sunday afternoon.

“Hugh and Carl from the hotel were fantastic and moved their Sunday schedule around to accommodate us,” he added.

The concert will go ahead as planned, with doors opening at 3pm, with support act Fiona Boyes taking the stage just before 4pm.

The concert will finish

around 6pm.

The event is part of the Great Southern Nights program with the entity also giving their stamp of approval to the change of venue.

Russell Morris is an ARIA award winning artist, Australian Music Hall of Fame inductee and has had a massive recent career resurgence with four blues inspired albums.

HYPOTHETICAL Taking a Legal Look

Email Jasminda: media@newsofthearea.com.au

D

By Manny WOOD

Measure twice, Court once NATALIE found a perfect block to build her new home.

Prior to purchase, Natalie’s solicitor informs her that there was a carriageway running through the western side of the property in favour of her neighbour, Barbara.

Nevertheless, Natalie proceeds with the purchase of the property.

Barbara as a generational landowner had utilised the carriageway for many years, but in a short time, built a good relationship with Natalie, and all was amicable.

After several years passed, Natalie’s family expanded and so did her need for storage.

Natalie builds a shed on her property, but unfortunately after the shed was built, Natalie examines the surveyor’s plan of the property and discovers that she had built part of the shed on the land that was subject to the carriageway.

In the meantime, Barbara was granted approval to subdivide her property into eight lots and an integral part of her development was that the owners of the new lots would have the use of the carriageway through Natalie’s property.

Barbara discovers that the shed may now impede her development and after heated discussions, not surprisingly, Natalie’s and Barbara’s relationship deteriorates.

Barbara commences Court proceedings seeking orders that the shed be removed from the right of carriageway, on the grounds that the shed had a “material and substantial” effect upon her use of the carriageway and on the proposed development.

However, Natalie demonstrates to the Court that the placement of the shed was at the widest section of the carriageway, so that vehicles could still have easy use of the carriageway, to and from Barbara’s property.

Natalie also provided expert evidence to the Court, which showed that even taking into account the increased usage which would result from Barbara’s proposed subdivision, the carriageway would remain more than adequate.

The Court found that Natalie’s shed would not unreasonably impede the proposed use of the right of carriageway and ruled that the shed could remain.

Workplace Bullying DEAR News Of The Area,

HERE we go again!

Funny, now we have a Federal Election looming, somehow the Liberal party/ Coalition seem to time it perfectly to discredit the opposition leader and the Labor party.

The sad death of Labor Senator Kimberley Kitching at 52 being used to lure voters is in extremely poor taste for her and her family.

Workplace bullying is real from both men and women and should not be condoned.

As Anthony Albanese stated in a media interview, Senator Kitching had not lodged a complaint regarding the so-called bullying and Senator Kitching would be appalled at the bad publicity this complaint is generating.

Thank you, Rhonda GREEN, Coffs Harbour.

Why Grow Kale?

By Fiona MORGAN

WHY grow kale (Brassica oleracea)?

I mean sure it’s nutrient dense, reliable for ten months of the year and bombproof…

Kale is jammed full of vitamins and minerals.

It’s a prolific plant which is always what you want in your veggie garden.

Make life easy.

Harvesting is simple.

Just snap off the lowest leaves as you need them for continuous picking over most of the year.

It has a well deserved reputation for being hardy.

The plants are known to have done well here through hot drought periods as well as inundating wet periods!

This is also a perennial plant who will last for at least two years in this area.

Hooray, less work!

Kale’s favourite and most prolific time is the cool season.

Now is a good time to get it going in your garden.

Frost affects kale....making it taste sweeter.

Mature kale plants are fine with frost and snow.

This is a plant who will grow and be productive through Canadian, Scottish and Russian winters, and taste sweeter for the cold. Crazy!

Not only that, kale will grow through our belting summers.

It may slow down over the hottest months and appreciate some shade cloth, but it shouldn’t die and does not tend to bolt in the heat either.

This is definitely a resilient food staple.

28 COFFS COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

As a brassica, it suffers from the unwanted attentions of the cabbage moth who lays her caterpillar eggs on all the brassica family for munching.

There are fewer cabbage moths around in winter but you most likely will need to do *something* about the cabbage moth.

Other creatures who might want a piece of kale are snails when the plants are small.

Did you know kale plants can grow to be a two meter high stalk?

Once the kale gets some height, it’s usually out of reach of snails.

Bowerbirds might take a fancy to the kale and netting works to foil their destruction too.

Brassica crops are quick growing so it is important that plants have immediate access to nutrients.

Kale, being a leafy vegetable, loves nitrogen.

It also appreciates phosphorus.

So, chook poo or a sneaky outdoor pee when the plant is tall enough to avoid splashing the leaves.

I remember being offered a photo frame made of elephant dung in Chiang Mai and haggling over the price, since it is poor form not to haggle in Thailand.

It just confuses the situation if you accept the price offered.

Anyway, I didn't actually want the frame, so I offered a ridiculously low price, and the salesperson was so offended that I felt instantly mortified at my actions and ended up buying the frame for double the original asking price.

At customs in Sydney Airport, the frame was confiscated and ripped apart by a customs officer whose name was probably something like Butch or Dwight.

What is the message of this tale? I don't know.

I've forgotten your question as I've now transported myself back to a time when life was simpler and the only worry I had was haggling over things I didn't want.

I think the point I wanted to make was that life is too short to be fretting about things you no longer want anyway.

Or to be taking up headspace over objects that are no longer yours.

As someone very wise, I think it was Queen Elsa, once said, 'Let it Go'.

Carpe diem, Jasminda

Hygiene!

There are a huge number of varieties of kale to try.

What to do with it?

Use it anywhere you would use spinach! It’s versatile.

Kale chips are popular too.

Want to get growing?

OPINION & LETTERS

Tourism Management Plan for Gleniffer Unveiled

By Noah FENCE

A BOLD initiative to reduce the heavy environmental impact that annual hordes of tourists to The Promised Land are causing was unveiled by Council last Wednesday.

The multi-point management plan, titled ‘Waterfall Way Too Many Tourists’, was revealed to a packed Bellingen CWA Hall

by Council’s environmental planner Dr Cam Flaurel.

Speaking to introduce the plan, Dr Flaurel began, “Each year we’re seeing more and more visitors to The Promised Land and this increased traffic is taking its toll on the local environment.

“We needed a plan so our team here has worked tirelessly to agree, unanimously, to engage a Sydney based consulting agency to deliver a report.”

The report, titled ‘Future Forests Sustainably’ or FFS, contains a series of recommendations that Council voted to

adopt and implement before next tourist season.

Council’s Head of Communication Isabel End announced that a formal change of name for the area was top of the list.

“We felt that the name Promised Land was misleading and may cause legal liability issues for Council should it fail to meet visitor expectations.

“By renaming the region ‘Conditional Agreement Land’ we have not only solved these potential legal concerns but also made it sound less appealing, which in turn will deliver less tourists.

“It’s win-win for everyone and dovetails nicely with Council’s proud tradition of minimal road maintenance.”

Another recommendation was that ‘Never Never Creek’ be renamed ‘Never Ever Creek’ which would reduce those visitors sensitive to suggestive negativity.

“Who’d go camping there?” asked Ms End.

SATIRE

“No thanks. Sounds scary.”

An unsurprising point noted by the FFS report is that Queenslanders are largely to blame for the river's decline due to their strong culture of environmental vandalism.

“They’re by far the worst, in every way, so as a specific deterrent to such visitors we believe renaming ‘Gleniffer’ as ‘Polite and Safe Road Use Region’ will see them holiday elsewhere.”

The President of Brisbane-based 4WD club ‘Quee4WD’, Rex Everything, agreed that this would be a very effective way to stop him returning.

Compliance Officer Poppy Cox then defended Council’s decision to install a $48,000 suggestion box.

Situated beneath the Adam Gilchrist statue, the all-weather suggestion box is a legislative requirement designed to help ratepayers feel that their opinions are worthy.

“We are receiving up to three suggestions a month so in essence it’s already paid for itself.

“Sadly, most of these suggestions are repetitive or make no sense because it’s usually Darcy that’s written them but the

Bellingen Shire Mayoral Column

By Bellingen Shire Mayor Steve ALLAN AT this month’s Council meeting I called on all Federal election candidates to support the Australian Local Government Association’s (ALGA) ‘Don’t Leave Local Communities Behind’ national funding initiative, which based on independent review, would contribute $6.46 billion per annum to Australia’s Gross Domestic Product.

I’ll be writing to our local Federal Member, Pat Conaghan MP, and all Federal election candidates in the lead up to the May 2022 elections, seeking their support for the national initiative, and the

funding required to drive a suite of projects that would fuel the future economic and community recovery efforts of every Australian Council and community.

That’s because the challenges we face as a community are the same challenges faced by every community across the country, where local businesses and families are doing it tough, so it’s important that our Federal colleagues support the ALGA’s efforts to make sure no one gets left behind and everybody benefits from Australia’s post-pandemic recovery.

And it will require a significant amount of Federal funding to successfully deliver on the broad range of medium

and long-term projects identified via the ALGA’s ‘Don’t Leave Local Communities Behind’ national policy initiatives, which economists have also predicted will create a further 43,444 jobs across the country.

These funds would also strengthen every local Council and community’s capacity to establish programs that promote economic recovery, improve community resilience and kick-start the local circular economy by strengthening relationships across all levels of government, so we can make a real difference by working together to meet the shared challenges we face.

Beware the ‘Independents’ DEAR News Of The Area,

I’M another who’s concerned about the socalled ‘Independents’ popping up to run for federal parliament.

One surefire way of telling that they’re likely to be party-aligned, is when they sidestep the two big elephants right in front of them.

One of those elephants is, of course, the global overpopulation crisis – a massive

elephant that’s so readily walked around by growth-orientated fools on their way to exclaiming that we have an issue with climate change!

I wonder why?

Australia has a big role to play in advocating for, and ending growth – and it starts by recognising that overpopulation is real.

The crisis is well and truly real.

The growth/unsustainability-aligned

parties don't recognise this.

The second elephant is the desperate need for a referendum on the discontinuation of these ridiculous State Governments.

In a massively over-governed nation, we have this farcical mess highlighted by the recent Covid-inspired state borders chaos, and the huge numbers of Premiers, Ministers, and Chief Health Officers all trying to outdo each other as they stepped into the limelight.

New War Memorial for the town of Woolgoolga DEAR News Of The Area,

THE recent article in News Of The Area about rebuilding the old WW1 War Memorial failed to engender much local interest.

From my discussion with people, the main point of contention is that the old war memorial is not in keeping with the modern image that Woolgoolga wishes to present to the world.

Many local residents would like to see a war memorial in the town around which those special days could be commemorated.

The position of the present War Memorial does not attract any interest, and is almost hidden, rather than being in

Friday, 1 April 2022

an open position.

There are many people who visit war memorials for very personal reasons, and to quietly reflect upon a lost family member’s life.

This is impossible at the present position.

Could I suggest that the Council investigate the possibility of building a new War Memorial for the town of Woolgoolga.

One which is positioned in the middle of the town.

In keeping with the modern look for the town, could I suggest it be made from polished concrete, possibly black or dark grey in colour.

Built in a semicircle with a sweeping

It’s important however that Council also remains focused on working closely with our community to ensure that our Shire’s seniors, youth, those with a disability and the vulnerable and isolated are represented and consulted as we work towards identifying potential opportunities and local solutions to the economic and social challenges our Shire faces.

That’s why it’s imperative that we secure the backing of our Federal colleagues to help fund and deliver these grass roots projects, so we’re in a strong position to provide our local community, businesses and those in need with the infrastructure and services we need to create a resilient and connected community that is supported by sustainable local businesses and employment opportunities.

It’s the political parties that don’t want their state branches dissolved, or give their overpaid mates the sack.

This is where a true independent would step in and state the obvious.

Only a true non-party-aligned Independent would recognize these elephants, rather than playing games with the intelligence of the average voter.

Beware the ‘Independent’!

Regards, Richie Tassicker, P.O. Box 287, Toormina, 2452.

PROMOTE YOU!

curvature reminiscent of a wave.

The names of known local warriors who have made the ultimate sacrifice could be engraved into it.

Space should be allowed for future amendments in the case of future conflicts, or, indeed, to honour any local people lost in various conflicts since WW1.

The Sikh community must be involved.

If a memorial were built in the manner described above, its footprint would be minimal, and if positioned near the centre of town in a grassed area, it could be used as the centre-point for commemorations as well as a quiet place for personal reflection.

main point here is that we’re suggestion box compliant.”

It was at the end of the presentation however, that the surprise of the evening was delivered by newly minted Cultural Coordinators Polly Esther and Ethyl Chloride.

“Following the success of the series ‘Byron Baes’, Netflix have confirmed a new series will be filmed locally commencing in May. “Directed by acclaimed documentary maker Phil Landers, ‘Bellingen Buds’ will chronicle the lives of five Bellinger Valley youths over a six-week period using discreetly hidden cameras in multiple locations.”

Rumours continue to swirl around town as Netflix remains tight-lipped about who the final five stars will be.

Concerns about a lack of diversity were put to rest by producer Betty Carnt who confirmed that the final five would contain at least one Urungan and one Dorrigo person.

“We can however confirm at this stage that colourful local identities Blaze Away and housemate Billy Pullen have made the cut.”

THIS ideally located property will suit families, or downsizers and has the added bonus of council approval for a home business.

The one owner property was built thirty-one years ago and has received some recent updates, with new flooring, new ceiling fans, renovated kitchen and fresh paint.

Entry to the home is via the spacious loungeroom with low maintenance vinyl timber planks, which flows through to the tiled dining area.

Adjacent to the dining room is the centrally renovated kitchen with electrical appliances, laminate breakfast bar, and microwave/appliance cupboard,

overlooking the second living area that was added to the home in 1999.

The addition of the sunroom not only adds plenty of light to the home but also provides a wonderful space to sit and relax overlooking the rear yard with established trees and gardens. The sunroom is currently divided into three, adding an extra bedroom and a study to the home, which is perfect for large families needing the space.

You can leave the bedroom and study in place or remove the temporary walls to enjoy the sunroom in its full size.

To the right of the home, you will find the three extra-large bedrooms all with built-in wardrobes, timber look vinyl flooring, and ceiling fans.

The second and third bedrooms are council approved for a home beauty salon.

A ramp at the side of the house provides

entry through sliding doors to the second bedroom, which is a great option for those wanting to have a work from home office with external access. The third bedroom previously used for a beautician’s room has its own basin, as the plumbing is already in place, why not install an ensuite to add to the functionality of the home.

The fully fenced backyard is private with a timber deck sitting area, brick BBQ and as the yard is level it provides a great space for the kids and pets to play.

This home genuinely has a lovely feel and plenty of potential, call for an inspection.

Coffs cricket premierships awarded after grand finals washed out

By Aiden BURGESS

COFFS Harbour District Cricket Association’s season premierships have been awarded to the region’s champion clubs after last weekend’s scheduled grand finals were washed out.

Nana Glen were awarded the first grade premiership capping off a great season in which they finished as undefeated minor premiers.

Valleys Cricket were awarded the second grade premiership, while Sawtell were third grade major

premiers.

Diggers Cricket Club Inc. finished first grade runners up, with Bellingen runners up in second grade and Nana Glen third grade runners up.

The Coffs Harbour District Cricket Association’s junior

Eagles Junior Touch Footy Championships.

The tournament saw juniors (under 12s to under 18s) from all over Northern NSW compete in the only representative event that was able to take place in Northern NSW this season, due to the wet weather over summer.

The tournament saw

juniors from affiliates including Ballina, Port Macquarie, Taree, Armidale, Forster, Macksville and Coffs Harbour go head-to-head in a competition that also served as selection for the Northern Eagles Representative Squad.

Coffs Harbour entered under 18s girls and under 14s boys sides, with both sides

premierships were also awarded due to the grand finals being washed out.

Macksville Ex-Services finished as under 16s premiers, with Bellingen/ Dorrigo Cricket Clubs winning the under 14s title and Sawtell the under 12s premiers.

Junior runners up included Coffs Colts (under 16s), Macksville ExServices (under 14s), and Nana Glen (under 12s).

The North Coast Cricket Council’s Premier League grand final was postponed until this weekend, as a result of last weekend’s washout.

The Northern Districts Rebels are scheduled

to host Sawtell in the Premier League decider in Woolgoolga.

The grand final will be a two-day match played at the High Street Playing Fields.

The Rebels and Sawtell have met once this season in which Sawtell won by 45 runs in their one day match at Richardson Park in January.

Under 18s girls coach Dal ‘Shorty’ Phoonie said he was proud of his players.

“I am so proud of the girls, they played their hearts out against some very welldrilled teams and gave them a real run for their money.”

The under 18s Hurricanes were eventually defeated in their semi-final against Macksville, who went on to win the tournament.

Under 14s boys coach Steven Moore was equally proud of his boys efforts, many of whom are relatively new to the code of touch football.

“Because of COVID restrictions and bad weather, our boys were only able to have a handful of training sessions before the event,” he said.

“What they achieved was amazing, only narrowly missing out on the grandfinal.”

Coffs Harbour Hurricanes players also earnt individual honours, with under 18’s girls players Indi Klaus, Mia McKeon, Emma Williams, and Casey Cowgill selected to the Northern Eagles representative team, while Cooper Moore, Kden Carter, Quinn Evans, and Charlie Carter were selected to the under 14s Northern Eagles

against Port United, while the Sawtell Scorpions take on the Taree Wildcats.

And the Northern Strom travel to Kempsey to take on the Macleay Valley Rangers.

Four matches in the opening round will be played on synthetics at the Coffs Football Centre.

After a season in which they finished as undefeated minor premiers, Coffs City

United Lions coach Glen Williams was looking to add more trophies to the club’s trophy cabinet.

“We want to do a threepeat of minor premierships because I think that trophy is an earned trophy,” he said.

These Championships were potentially the last to be held at Sawtell Pool before it closes for the proposed rebuild at the end of the season, late April 2022.

q Legends - older and new – at Sawtell Swimming Club’s Club Championships. Luke Mallia and Maddy Gough with Sully Watson, Lewys Groth, Hugh Stevens, Grace Furey and Amber Woods.

“The Club Championships allow every member to compete for Age Champion and overall Junior and Senior Champion,” Kim Roach, President/Head Coach at Sawtell Swimming Club told News Of The Area.

“Point Score Champions are recognised along with the club’s ‘Bird Stollery’ award – this is presented to the person who has stepped up their training, personal bests and achieved well at our Sawtell Explosion Carnival; and the ‘Maddy

Gough’ award, celebrating the swimmer who has earned the highest number of points through the Club Pathway at Championship meets.

“The swimmers were awarded with many medals, a BBQ, a lolly treasure hunt and a gift from Rebel Sport thanks to their Community Sport Scheme.

Lions into Round 6 of Australia Cup

By David WIGLEY

THE Coffs United Lions roared into round six of the Australia Cup following a 4-1 win over Coastal Premier League rivals Port Saints last Thursday at the Coffs Football Centre.

Flying winger Lorenzo Rigoni continued his hot form and made a breakthrough after ten minutes when a mistimed sliding tackle from a Saint’s defender resulted in a penalty, which Rigoni converted.

The Lions celebrations were short lived when two minutes later the Saints

were awarded a penalty which Lions goalkeeper Will Goodwin spectacularly saved to maintain their lead.

The Saints came out flying in the second half with a stunning strike from Huon Lickley for the equaliser.

As the match wore on, the Lions exploited the gaps with their fast transitional play with Rigoni adding a second.

Blake Townsend scored two stunning goals, the first to the bottom right and second in the top left corner which sealed the victory and a place in round 6.

Lions coach Glen Williams

said the match was a lot closer than the scoreline suggested.

“It was a tough battle out there, Port came here with a plan that I was prepared for, we got a goal early on and we just sort of sat back and let them come at us.

“A defensive mistake could have turned into a goal and then you are under the pump.

“Once we conceded that goal we just stuck to our game plan and came away with a couple more goals.

“We haven’t put the same team on the pitch for the last four games, so I’m stoked with that, showing that we have

“It was a great win as

they are a really big, strong side,” he said.

“We were willing to grind the whole game and we kept the tempo up.

“They are the biggest side in the comp, and we matched their physicality and it was all about our fitness and toughness.”

Freebairn was looking forward to the last challenge that stood between his side winning the Laurie Daley

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement.

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. After its 5th birthday – warranty expires.

WEDNESDAY

NBN, 8.45pm

ABC, 8pm

Just when you thought this hugely popular true crime drama series was done and dusted, the unbelievable headlines and story involving high-rolling Sydney financial advisor Melissa Caddick have inspired a new instalment. “I don’t buy shares, I buy shoes,” boasts the infamous con woman in this new, high-octane two-part story. Alleged to have stolen more than $40 million from clients, friends and family, Caddick disappeared after ASIC raided her home, with her severed, runner-clad foot found washed up on a beach three months later. Starring Kate Atkinson (right) and Colin Friels (Mystery Road), the story is tantalisingly told from her perspective.

The contestants on Hard Quiz aren’t average folk. For a start, they willingly compete on this show knowing full well that host Tom Gleeson will berate, stir and make fun of them.

Secondly, they have sidestepped any highfalutin topics such as 19th-century painters or the two pillars of modern physics for the joys of Rolex watches, Thomas the Tank Engine and classic Holden cars.

There’s no snobbery here, only snickers from the audience and the echo of showman Gleeson’s comedic barbs. This week, the four “experts” show off their diverse knowledge on the subjects of Australian poetry, Mahatma Gandhi, sci-fi show Stargate SG-1 and the graphic novels Scott Pilgrim.

UNDERBELLY: VANISHING ACT

FRIDAY

ESCAPE TO THE PERFECT TOWN

7TWO, 8.30pm

Settle in for a spot of dreaming, with idyllic cottages and lush rolling hills, in this easygoing new series, fronted by charming former Paralympian Steve Brown.

Cut from the same cloth as British stalwarts Escape to the Country and A Place in the Sun, Brown helps people find their new home in a new country town. In this week’s premiere episode, he takes a couple who are looking to escape the sky-high London property market under his wing. With a £280,000 budget, they are amazed at the lifestyle they can afford for their young children, with great community spirit, lush green spaces and buzzing high streets as free add-ons.

Surf Classic

By Aiden BURGESS

COFFS surfers have hit the waves for a great cause during the 22nd annual Barney Miller Surf Classic.

The wet weather certainly didn’t put a dampener on this year's event, as conditions improved for Sunday’s finals day of the three-day surfing competition at Sawtell Main Beach.

Sawtell surfer Rosie Smart won the open ladies event, while another Sawtell surfer Lilah Pearce tied for second.

Local surfer Billy Kean won the open men's event during this year's Barney Miller Surf Classic.

The annual fundraising event is hosted by Barney and Kada Miller and the Sawtell community, and helps to raise money for people

who have suffered spinal cord and life-changing surfing injuries.

This year’s recipient was the family of Woolgoolga surfer Tim Thompson, who was fatally attacked by a shark last year.

Tim’s wife Katie was this year’s recipient with all funds raised aiming to help with raising their new baby girl who was born in January, as well as living costs.

Barney Miller was once again in attendance to watch the local surfers in his namesake event, and said numbers were up on last year’s event.

“We had a lot more entrants this year, we usually have around 130 but this year we had over 150,” he said.

“We had a massive waiting list which was a good problem to have as it's raising money for a good cause.”

“The rain put a tiny bit of a dampener on it, but the waves were pumping by Sunday,” he said.

“Which was great for surfers as they tried to win their finals.”

“And a few of Tim’s (her late husband’s) friends came up from the Central Coast to compete.”
