FOCUSING on children’s entertainment and a fast paced schedule of events, the Coffs Harbour Show was a hit with families last weekend, 13-15 May. News Of The Area (NOTA) caught up with Christopher Pearson, President of the Coffs Harbour Show Society in the exhibition pavilion at the produce table where he was musing over the Decorated Vegetables category winners.

“This just demonstrates how diverse the Coffs Show is,” Chris said, pointing to a little display of winning vegetables decorated as famous politicians Clive Palmer, Pauline Hanson and Scott Morrison.

“We’ve had good attendance over all three days; there’s so much free entertainment.

Something for everyone at the Coffs Harbour Show FROM Page 1

“The circus has been full every performance and the Wheel of Steel has amazed people.

“Our emphasis was on good clean family fun and people have enjoyed it all.

“From the circus, they can go to see the Working Barru Dogs rounding up sheep, to the venomous snakes demonstrations and the animal petting zoo,” said Christopher.

And then there’s the arts and crafts workshops going on all the time in the pavilion to participate in, you can wander round all the displays of winning crafts…and get a free banana at the Banana Growers Association stand.

“With all the children’s activities we have had good support from local schools – with thirteen schools participating this year with entries,” said Christopher.

“They also give us feedback on ways to build the show, like adding sheep classes to the agriculture competitions section.”

Woolgoolga High School brings its ownproduced honey to the show and Bowraville and Bellingen High Schools bring their cattle to compete.

“St John Paul College senior students join the Coffs Show Society members’ team in setting the show up, for work experience contributing to their event management course studies.

“These students participated all last week learning how to set up an event; putting up the circus big top, working with the light and sound engineers, public relations, meeting sponsors and they’ve also learned about occupational health and safety requirements.

“This work experience is a pilot program and has been a great success this year so we hope to build on that for next year’s Coffs Show.”

Speaking of next year, Christopher reveals the Coffs Show Society members have mooted the idea of having a Spring Show rather than an Autumn Show.

“We’re looking at proposed dates of 13-15 October for 2023.

“There’s the advantage of having flowers in bloom, the cattle would have calves at foot, the poultry wouldn’t be moulting, the horses wouldn’t be growing their winter coats so they would show better and we’d also get onto a circuit for the teenage sideshow rides; Taree

Show, then us in Coffs and then they go on to Lismore.

“The weather in spring is usually better than the autumn rain that’s plagued the show for years.”

The proposed dates have been released on the Coffs Show Society website with a questionnaire which asks for everyone’s feedback and comments.

To participate in the survey for 2023 see: www.coffsharbourshowsociety.com.au.

Here’s a round-up of some of Coffs Show highlights for 2022.

Old MacDonald’s Petting Farm Old MacDonald’s Petting Farm welcomed patting hands for three days straight.

“We have pigs, goats, sheep, an alpaca, ducks, chickens and a rabbit,” Sonia Dillon shared.

The most popular pet?

“Probably the alpaca, Coco, she’s got a lovely nature and the kids are surprised that she is softer than the sheep.”

Reptile World Reptile World from the Big Banana ran a series of demonstrations.

“For our snake awareness shows we discuss what you do if you come across a snake,” said Adam Strickland from Reptile World.

“The purpose of the educational part of the show is to build respect with the snakes.”

Between shows, Adam showed off a black headed python.

“He’s ten years old and very used to being handled – he’s called Chino because he looks like a cappuccino.”

Barru Working Kelpies “We’ve seen surprisingly large audiences for our show,” said Scott Amon from Barru Working Kelpies in Valla.

“People love to see the dogs shifting livestock; it’s that interaction between the human, the dog and the livestock completing a task.

“People are enthralled by it – they love the relationship between me and the dogs.

“We breed for that inherited shepherding then we put command over instinct.”

It’s a team effort, he says.

The Barru Working Kelpies were sponsored for the second year by Highgrove Bathrooms.

Rod Baldock from Highgrove Kitchens said, “We’re always looking for ways to support the

local community and this worked well last year so we did it again.

“Scott puts on such a good show – it’s great to see large audiences for each show.”

The Banana Growers Association Lovely local bananas are a Coffs Show favourite and even better when the Coffs Harbour and District Banana Growers Association members are giving them away.

Wally Gately, a many-year regular of Coffs Show said their Association’s presence is about awareness and connecting with the community – there’s no competitions anymore.

The ripe banana flavour this season?

“It’s always good in Coffs Harbour,” he smiled.

Commenting on the wet weather, Wally is philosophical, saying, “If you look back over time, it’s happened before.

“We had this much rain back in the 1950s.

“The rain makes it awkward; harvesting can be tricky – our neighbours in Macksville can’t get onto their plantations.”

Liz Knoblock from the Banana Growers Association said, “You have to take what Mother Nature gives out.”

Coffs Orchid Society Growing orchids is a thriving interest in the region and the local Coffs Harbour Orchid Society has a booming membership of around 50 enthusiasts.

Orchid fan Bruce Hall worked the Sunday morning shift on the Society’s plant-filled stand answering questions and “hopefully exposing people to growing orchids…what it takes in care and attention,” he said.

Questions ranged from what fertilisers to use to the general care of different orchids and all about how to look after them.

“The orchids we have on display – some of them are winners from recent past events – come from different places around the world.

“Every month there’s a different orchid that will flower.”

Horse events “Well, we had tons of mud but the rain held off and we had happy riders,” Horse Ring secretary Alice Rehwinkel said.

“Competitors have ridden to the conditions.

“We’ve seen quality riders, a good atmosphere and everyone’s been very patient.

“We had to split the events between three areas because of the muddy ground in parts.

“Unfortunately, the show jumping was cancelled owing to the weather and ground conditions.

“Yesterday was good with all the breed classes: brumbies, thoroughbreds, Arabians, Australian ponies and more. “While it wasn’t a big show, we saw competitors score personal bests and gain great achievements.”

Council Seeking Price of Jetty Land

By Sam PARKER

COFFS Harbour City Council has resolved to note a report on the valuation of the Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) land located between Jordan

Esplanade and the North Coast railway line.

The motion also requested a separate report to be returned to Council, outlining possible funding sources for the purchase of the land based on the

valuation, should a purchase be pursued.

The motion was passed six to three, with councillors Amos, Cassell, Judge, Sechi, Townley and Wolgamot all voting for the valuation and funding investigation to take

Arrawarra Stone Fish Traps Heritage Listed

By Andrew VIVIAN A SIGNIFICANT Aboriginal site on the NSW Mid North Coast has been listed on the State Heritage Register in recognition of its cultural and spiritual importance to the Garby Elders of the Gumbaynggirr people.

The Minister for Heritage, James Griffin, said the Arrawarra Headland and Stone Fish Traps near Coffs Harbour has been an important meeting place for more than a thousand years.

“The Arrawarra Headland and Stone Fish

Traps are a remarkable example of a spiritual and cultural landscape, and they hold great significance for the Gumbaynggirr people,” he said.

“There are few surviving fish traps found in NSW that are in such good condition, and this listing on the State Heritage Register means the site is now further protected.”

Garby Elder Uncle Tony Dootson said it was important for the site to be listed to ensure the Arrawarra Headland and Stone Fish Traps continue to be celebrated and conserved for future generations.

“This place is very important to our people,

the Garby, not just for food but also for teaching our younger ones about their culture,” Mr Dootson said.

Arrawarra has been a significant meeting place for more than a thousand years, central to cultural exchange with neighbouring groups.

The name Arrawarra comes from the Gumbaynggirr words ‘Yee Warra’, meaning meeting place.

The lands of the Gumbaynggirr were so rich in resources, they were renowned for sharing with other nations.

When food was plentiful, neighbouring groups were invited to feast and gatherings

Mayor Councillor Paul Amos said he believes that the community would be in favour of purchasing the land and have it provide recreational use as the city grows.

www.newsofthearea.com.au

“This is prime recreational land that needs to be preserved well into the future.

“I believe as a Council we have a duty to explore a potential purchase.

“The current zoning of

the ARTC land in question is public recreation and infrastructure.

“The objectives of these zones focus on keeping the land for public open space and recreation, providing walking and cycling infrastructure and to prevent development that is not compatible with this.”

He said, “The headland is also recognised by Aboriginal people of the

area as a significant men’s rainmaking site.”

Election Time FROM Page 1 backed by Climate 200, are Hanabeth Luke in Page and Caz Heise in Cowper.

Mr Conaghan and Mr Hogan have both pointed to their records in providing funding for projects in their electorates.

Mr Hogan said he is concerned with helping Page voters deal with cost of living rises and finding affordable housing.

Mr Conaghan has highlighted the Prime Minister’s announcement of first home buyers being able to access their superannuation to buy a house.

Both candidates are committed to strengthening the economy to deliver more jobs, tackling cost of living pressures, greater investment in regional infrastructure, building a better health system and bringing back manufacturing to Australia.

Labor candidates Patrick

Deegan and Keith McMullen want improved access to affordable housing, worldclass health services and more secure jobs on the Coffs Coast, as well as better access to TAFE and a rise in the minimum wage.

Mr Deegan said, “Northern NSW will be the first region to benefit from Labor’s $10 billion plan to build 30,000 new social and affordable houses around Australia.”

He also highlighted Labor’s announcement of a Medicare Urgent Care Clinic in Lismore to improve access to medical assistance and take pressure off the Emergency Department at Lismore Base Hospital.

Mr McMullen said Labor will provide $700,000 for additional crisis accommodation on the Mid North Coast for women and children fleeing violence.

The Labor candidates say they take climate change seriously, pointing to Labor’s Powering Australia strategy to reduce Australia’s emissions by 43 percent by

2030, and keep the country on track for net zero by 2050.

They said Labor will invest up to $200 million per year on disaster prevention and resilience and will establish a National Water Commission as part of the strategy to future-proof Australia’s water resources.

Kashmir Miller says The Greens’ vision for the Coffs Coast is to create a thriving local economy that people are proud to live in, especially young people.

This means investing in TAFE and apprenticeships to create sustainable jobs that keep people in the area and investing in youth-focussed projects.

She said, “We will boost the regional economy by prioritising agriculture and small businesses, while fixing the cost of living by prioritising Page in our affordable housing plan.

“This means creating a bright future for the planet and for people on the Coffs Coast.”

Timothy Nott said a Greens vote in Cowper is

Bypass work on track LOCAL successes and recent achievements were the talk of the morning at an official progress visit to Coffs Harbour bypass on Monday 16 May. Local contractors delivering the early works for the $2.2 billion Coffs Harbour bypass are reportedly on schedule, with more than half of the structures demolished and ready for major work later this year.

Federal Member for Cowper Pat Conaghan said the Commonwealth and NSW Government-funded bypass would provide enormous benefits to the Coffs Harbour region during construction and ongoing benefits once delivered.

“Much of the work we have done so far is out of the community’s view, but there has been plenty going on,” Mr Conaghan said.

“The project team has been carrying out at-house noise treatments, relocating

essential services like the Rural Fire Service shed and removing structures so when major construction work starts the successful contractor can hit the ground running.

“While there is still a lot to do, the team has already relocated 1.4 kilometres of Essential Energy services, 2.5 kilometres of water mains and 11.8 kilometres of telecommunication cables.

“Work is about to start on relocating water mains, power and telecommunication lines south of Englands Road to Stadium Drive, along Coramba Road, and in the Korora region between James Small Drive, Opal Cove Golf Course and Coachmans Close to Beachview Drive.

“More than 60 structures need to be removed for the build to start and at least half of those are already gone.”

a vote for real action on climate change.

He said, “We will decrease our reliance on fossil fuels while creating certainty for business.”

Mr Nott said, “We will encourage construction and agriculture courses added to our free TAFE and university policy and we will empower First Nations people and ensure policy is designed for community before profit.

"I want the government to be transparent and protect the vulnerable,” Mr Nott said.

He added that the Great Koala National Park is one of the exciting initiatives the Greens are supporting to grow jobs in Cowper.

Mr Nott said, “I want all residents to have secure accommodation, to be able to learn, work and afford to stay in Cowper.”

The Independent candidates have attracted much interest across the country, and while Dr Luke and Ms Heise are not profiled as much by national media as high-profile Sydney and Melbourne Independents,

they have attracted media attention for their campaigns.

Ms Heise was featured on Australian Story last Monday evening and Dr Luke was interviewed by the online satire website The Betoota Advocate for a podcast.

Dr Hanabeth Luke said she is determined to do politics differently in Page.

She said, “I’m a scientist and I know that we are on the front line of climate disruption.”

Dr Luke said she has listened to people’s stories, challenges and ideas over tea, home cooked meals, cake, floodwater, mud and music.

She said voters want affordable housing, disasterresilient roads and internet, quality education and training, more accessible healthcare, aged care and mental health services for people young and old.

“I pledge to work with you to achieve all of these things and fight hard to put our regional industries and local business in front,” she said.

Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh said the Coffs Harbour bypass was a major win for jobs and the local economy.

“The bypass will shave nearly twelve minutes off travel time, remove twelve sets of traffic lights and keep 12,000 vehicles out of the CBD each day,” Mr Singh said.

“It will make our city a better place to live and will reinvigorate the old highway corridor.”

Joining Pat Conaghan and Gurmesh Singh on Monday, NSW Minister for Regional

Transport and Roads Sam Farraway said he was excited that local contractors were successful in securing most of the early work.

“Four packages of building work have already been awarded to local building contractors Tisdell Constructions, Wilk Construction and PKN Constructions,” Mr Farraway said.

“The four packages will allow for at-home noise treatment for some of the 619 properties identified, with additional packages to

Ms Heise says she wants to bring respect and integrity back to Federal Parliament and wants real action on climate and health.

She says that her approach is very simple – she views any legislation through the lens of its current and future benefit for the people of Cowper, its fairness and its affordability.

Issues such as the cost of living, affordable housing and response to disasters are high on her agenda.

Ms Heise stresses that, like Dr Luke, she is not beholden to political parties or donors, just the people in her electorate.

The Labor, Greens and Independent candidates all support the establishment of a federal Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) and have a commitment to Net Zero emissions by, at least, 2050.

Member for Cowper Pat Conaghan and Member for Page Kevin Hogan were both approached for comment, but did not respond prior to publication.

q 200 people shared their views about the Draft Master Plan for the Jetty Foreshore. Photo: CHLGARRA.

By Andrew VIVIAN SOME 200 Coffs Harbour residents attended a presentation of the NSW Government’s Draft Master Plan for the Jetty Foreshore at Coffs Harbour High School on Thursday 12 May, held by the Coffs Harbour LGA Residents and Ratepayers Association (CHLGARRA).

NSW Government staff were in attendance to field questions from a passionate and engaged audience about the issues and concerns about the Draft Master Plan.

Many attendees at the meeting asserted the Plan did not reflect the outcomes of previous surveys conducted about the foreshore during the last couple of decades, particularly as the Master Plan proposes raising current zoning limits to six stories and, in one section of the online survey, eight stories is mentioned.

They said there has been an overwhelming desire to retain the precinct as an open family friendly playground for both residents and visitors.

Bruce Weir, a vocal critic of the proposed development since its announcement, said, “The people there were hugely opposed to what is being proposed.”

Concern was expressed by many about the implication that, should the community not accept these zoning changes and the subsequent sale of land to private developers, no further funding would be available.

CHLGARRA President, Ann Leonard, who is also a member of the Jetty Foreshores Planning Advisory Committee, said this is

However, many voiced their concern that the Jetty Foreshore would become a Gold Coast-stye enclave.

In the end a show of hands revealed the overwhelming majority of attendees are opposed to any form of residential or tourism accommodation, with only three or four people in support of such a proposal.

Ms Leonard said she was disappointed that a prominent local resident had posted on social media that the meeting was a protest meeting and that people would not be safe attending.

Mr Weir said that while things got a bit heated, everyone had the opportunity to express their views.

He said, “It was good to see people have the opportunity to put their views opposing residential development.”

CHLGARRA is urging everyone who has an interest in the Jetty Foreshore to fill out the State Government survey to ensure the best outcome for generations of residents and visitors.

Both the Draft Master Plan and the survey can be found at https://www. dpie.nsw.gov.au/housing-and-property/ divisions/property-and-developmentnsw/precinct-development/coffs-jettyrevitalisation or by an online search for ‘Coffs Jetty Revitalisation Draft Masterplan Survey’.

misleading because there will always be opportunities for future grants and other forms of government funding.

She also pointed out, “A lot of the work previously done on the foreshore has been done by volunteers.”

Access and congestion were major issues and it was pointed out that there are already extensive traffic jams on weekends and during major events.

Emergency service vehicle access during such times is also of considerable concern.

Ms Leonard said, “An extra 1500 people a day would enter the area, with no improvement in access.”

It is felt this would be further exacerbated if the proposal to include 400 units along the rail line and at the site of the Deep Sea Fishing Club were to go ahead.

Concern was expressed that the Master Plan will, effectively, grow the Jetty Strip and the urban area of the Jetty into the foreshore, making preservation of the precinct as an area of passive recreation impossible.

Ms Leonard said, “The proposed amenities such as wide footpaths, billabongs, etc. will reduce the open space and will impact on the ability to hold major events.”

Most in attendance agreed that improvement to amenities, access, parking and landscaping needs to be undertaken.

Any submissions received will be made publicly available unless the writer can demonstrate that the release of part or all of the information would not be in the public interest.

Meals on Wheels celebrates 50 years

By Andrea FERRARI

MEALS on Wheels (MoW) Coffs Harbour marked its 50th anniversary with a morning tea and huge cake at the Chill 'n' Chat Cafe within the Community Village in Coffs Harbour.

Member for Cowper Pat Conaghan and Coffs Harbour Mayor Paul Amos were in attendance, alongside more than 50 volunteers, recipients and friends of the organisation.

Some of the more experienced volunteers shared their stories of the early days.

For Margaret Hoschke, President of Meals on Wheels, it was joining as a volunteer 45 years ago that

started a ball rolling for her lifetime’s journey with the charity.

“We’ve tailored our meals service to delivering seven frozen meals once a week, which means our clients can cook them when they want them rather than in the old days where they had to be ready to eat a hot delivered meals five days a week – it better meets their needs,” Margaret told News Of The Area.

“It is also a care checkin with our clients, making sure they are OK and observing anything we feel we should tell their family.”

Bronwyn Webber, Meals on Wheels’ Service Manager, shared some of the history of the service she has

worked in for 30 years.

“Meals on Wheels was started in this area in 1972 by a gentleman, Paul Ireland, who was CEO at the Coffs Harbour Base Hospital.”

He realized there was a need for a meals service for the elderly.

Paul put a proposal to the board of Directors of the Hospital which they accepted.

He received assistance from the State and Federal governments and after getting a committee together, they started delivering meals on 5 April 1972 in Coffs and Sawtell.

“Over the years our office area became too small and after discussion with Coffs Council in 1992 we were

“In 2007 Coffs Coast Meals on Wheels started buying frozen meals from Flagstaff Group in Wollongong and we now have over 80 menu options which clients can choose from and meets our food safety requirements.

Women’s Shed forum success

By Andrea FERRARI

COLLABORATION between women and those who work with women across the Coffs community is driving the firm founding of the proposed Coffs Harbour Women’s Shed (CHWS) project.

In its first formal

gathering, on Wednesday 11 May, the CHWS committee held a community forum at the Cavanbah Centre in Coffs Harbour, to share and discuss their plans, ideas, and challenges in building a Women's Shed for Coffs Harbour.

The forum was aimed

specifically at women who work with and provide support to women.

The purpose?

To develop relationships, make connections, and collect ideas and feedback on the project.

The forum commenced with a warm Welcome to

Country from Gumbaynggirr Elder Aunty Jenny Skinner.

Blessings and messages of support were also sent from Gumbaynggirr Elder Aunty Bea Ballangarry, who was not able to be there.

The forum had over 80 attendees who all responded positively to the project plans, agreeing that the proposed Women's Shed would go a long way towards reducing feelings of isolation and loneliness currently being experienced by women of all ages and backgrounds.

The community also agreed that women will easily make connections, develop relationships and support each other while building basic life skills, such

as home, car and bicycle maintenance, cooking, nutrition, health and wellbeing, dance, arts and crafts.

“This project will empower women, increase confidence, provide a safe space for healing, problem solving and provide pathways to education or job opportunities,” Women’s Shed spokesperson Alex Miller told News Of The Area.

The audience joined in on a robust discussion with a panel consisting of members of the Women's Shed committee and guest speakers.

Invited to speak were Rhiannon Mitchell, the founder of Saltwater Sistas, Independent candidate

for Cowper Caz Heise, and Billy Hill from the Mankind Project.

The forum was attended

by Member for Cowper Pat Conaghan, and briefly by Coffs Harbour Mayor Paul Amos.

“Momentum is building: we are asking that anyone interested in this innovative model complete our survey and subscribe to our newsletter at www. coffswomensshed.org or find us on Facebook @ CoffsWomensShed,” said Alex.

Stay tuned for more news and save 23 and 24 July for a weekend of workshop activities led by local women.

Free entry to Bello Show

By Andrea FERRARI FREE entry to the Bellinger River Agricultural Show, 21 and 22 May, 2022, is being offered as the show is unable to put on its normal full range of events and activities.

Donations will be gratefully accepted at the gate, say the organisers.

Bellinger River Agricultural Society President Gillian Anderson told News Of The Area, “Due to the condition of the showground after the recent floods and continued rain, and the high risk of injury to riders and horses, the horse

events have been postponed to later in the year.

“The cattle section will be greatly reduced, although still a great event, with fifteen head of cattle being presented by Bellingen High School students for judging on Saturday.

“The Showman's Guild are unable to bring any rides to our Show this year as they cannot afford the insurance.”

Trade and food stalls will be available as usual.

“We will still have some great events at the Show,” said Gillian.

“Our main pavilion

will be full of entries, the Mantova Art Show and photography will be on display, and our new venture the Artisan Tent will be hosting demonstrations of crafts throughout the weekend.

“Come along and see how potters and ceramicists, weavers, spinners, felters, printmakers and leadlighters practice their craft.

“Learn about beekeeping or buy some of the crafted goods.”

Celebrity chef Lyndey Milan, supported by local chef Mitch Grady, will be

cooking up a storm in the Luncheon Booth, with the chef's table lunch being held on Sunday.

“You can win a seat at Lyndey’s chef’s table lunch by buying a $5 ticket in the sweep.”

There will be ten lucky winners.

The Poultry Pavillion will be showing birds and the blacksmiths will be shaping metal.

There will be slot cars, mini golf, face painting,

the petting zoo and Steve's reptile world, as well as some new entertainment with hula hoops and giant bubbles.

The schools and other local groups will be performing in the entertainment tent, along with a diversity of musical ensembles.

Back Track Dogs will perform on Saturday afternoon, “and of course, there is our iconic Mongrel Dog Show on Sunday''.

The Fun Run is still on Sunday morning but a decision about the Woodchop, the Partner Carrying and the Young Farmer Challenge will be made closer to the weekend based on how much more rain falls and the condition of the ground.

Gillian assures, “Our first concern has to be for the safety of our competitors.”

At this stage it is unlikely that the Black Street paddock will be fit for parking.

Great Koala National Park Forum

By Andrew VIVIAN

MORE than 100 members of the public attended the Great Koala National Park (GKNP) public forum, sponsored by the NSW National Parks Association, on Thursday 28 April at the Norm Jordan Pavilion at the Coffs Harbour Showgrounds.

In attendance were three guest speakers and three candidates in the upcoming Federal election who listened, shared their policies, and took questions from the audience.

The MC for the forum, Gary

Dunnett, President of the NSW National Parks Association (NPA), gave an outline of the historical advocacy work of the Association in establishing National Parks in NSW and local NPA member, James Sherwood, outlined the Association’s support for the GKNP proposal.

Renowned North Coast conservationist Dailan Pugh highlighted the added benefits of a GKNP for protection of other threatened species, the enhanced quality and quantity of local water supply and the superior carbon capture and

storage capabilities of forests.

Local nature-based tourism operator, Graham Tupper, shared a passionate vision of the long term economic, social, recreational and educational opportunities the proposal could provide for this region, citing examples from his personal experience of other regions of Australia and overseas.

The future unsustainability of native forest logging and its impact on threatened species was raised, with one concerned local Karangi resident who

adjoins a native plantation forest flagged for imminent clear-felling being alarmed about the resident koalas.

Renowned local ecologist Mark Graham also shared his passion for the extraordinary forests and ecosystems on the Coffs Coast.

He said they must be understood, appreciated and preserved if our quality of life on the planet is to be truly sustainable.

Mr Graham told NOTA, “The reality is that we need many more conservation reserves if we are to preserve

koalas and other endangered species.

“We are, sadly, seeing, day in, day out, ongoing destruction of koala habitat within the proposed Great Koala National Park.”

He pointed to significant koala habitat being destroyed at Wedding Bells State Forest in recent months Three of the candidates for Cowper in Saturday’s Federal Election, Independent Caz Heise, Liberal Democrat Simon Chaseling and Greens candidate Tim Nott, all provided an insight into their

election platforms and took questions from the interested public.

Several other candidates provided written statements.

Mr Graham said it is encouraging that candidates are recognising the importance of protecting koala habitat, although he was dismayed that the sitting Federal member was unable to attend.

The audience acknowledged the work of Ashley Love, the local architect of the original GKNP concept, for his ongoing work in developing the original proposal.

EJ Mantova Memorial Art Competition at Bellingen Show

By Susan KONTIC

POOR weather in the days leading up to the 2022 Bellingen Show saw the cancellation of many outdoor events, but the EJ Mantova Memorial Art Competition went ahead as planned, and while the sun didn’t shine as brightly as hoped, the standard of entries certainly lit up the pavilion.

Coordinator Jackie Lee said, “After many years of organising the EJ Mantova Memorial Art Competition I never tire of seeing the diversity of artworks that are entered

q

into the competition.

“There is always a range of art-making techniques and subject matter.

“Our region is full of the most amazingly creative people.

“I am often asked which artwork is my favourite amongst the exhibition, but I have never been able to answer that question as there are always such interesting pieces.”

Here’s a quick look at the winners with the judges’ comments.

There is a deep knowledge of colour theory.

The sculpture has a fragility that is unexpected.

The surface decoration is refined.

The object is playful: a tower

Participants will take on 3,139 push-ups across 24 days in June, putting the spotlight on the number of lives lost to suicide in Australia in 2020.

“Participants of all ages and abilities push-up while learning about mental health, with the number of daily push-ups changing to reflect a vital mental health fact.

“Participants can aim for 100 percent of the daily pushup target, or set their own push-up goal - which can also be done as sit-ups, squats, or tailored exercises - with progress tracked through a dedicated app.”

Bonville Rural Fire Brigade to host Open Day

By Andrea FERRARI

BONVILLE Rural Fire Brigade is inviting local residents and property owners to visit the fire station on Saturday 21 May between 9am and 12 noon.

“Maybe after voting at the Bonville Hall nearby,” invited Narelle Swanson, Community Liaison Officer, Bonville Rural Fire Brigade.

The open day will be an opportunity to find out how the brigade operates and to inspect the fire tankers and

resources the brigade now has.

“There will be children's activity sheets and special handouts and the big red fire trucks to look at.”

Information sheets detailing such as how to safely conduct a pile burn will be available.

“These handouts, created by the Rural Fire Service are excellent up-todate material on a variety of topics on how to prepare for a fire emergency.”

The Open Day is in the

q Bonville Rural Fire Brigade - the Open Day shares do’s and don’ts in home fire care.

spirit of getting to know your local Brigade, “and how together we can respond to emergencies”.

Residents can help volunteers when responding to an emergency by making their property numbers clearly visible.

Fire tankers are much bigger than cars.

“Keeping overhanging vegetation cut back at gateways and driveways is important for the big fire tankers to access a

property.”

Many Brigade call outs are for emergencies within a property like shed fires, vehicle and electrical fires.

Preparation for the fire season has been hampered by the heavy rains.

“Only when the rain stops and things dry out will any burning be possible.”

Narelle urges new residents in particular to come and have a chat about what to do to keep both

their neighbours and the Brigade happy.

“Residents need to play their part in keeping Bonville safe.

“They’ll learn who must be contacted if they want to burn the piles of garden refuse that have been accumulating during the wet.”

Brigade members are all local volunteers on call 24 hours for all kinds of emergencies, not just bushfires.

They can be called to assist in floods, traffic accidents, fires in buildings and machinery.

Now is not the season for bushfires - that will come later in the year - but now is the time to prepare.

“To consider what long term projects might make a property safer, like water sources and access, come and talk to us about it on Saturday morning,” said Narelle.

A safer place to live and a great place to be.

Simultaneous Storytime

By Andrea FERRARI NATIONAL Simultaneous Storytime is back on Wednesday, 25 May 2022, with the event now reaching around the world from its Australian roots.

For the Coffs Coast that means heading to the Harry Bailey Memorial Library in Coffs Harbour from 11am to 12-noon.

Now in its 22nd year, National Simultaneous Storytime has promoted shared reading within libraries, schools, bookstores, children’s facilities and homes across the nation, and more recently, the world.

Held annually by the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA), National Simultaneous Storytime

encourages our love of books written, illustrated and published by Australian authors and artists.

“National Simultaneous Storytime is such a wonderful way to read together and connect through stories,” Bec, one of the librarians at Coffs Harbour Library, told News Of The Area.

“This year’s story, ‘Family Tree’ by Josh Pyke, is about connecting families and communities and about spreading love and joy, so it’s the perfect book to share at this event.

“While it can be a bit of a tongue twister and involves some pretty big words for our younger readers, the premise is simple; everyone reads the same book at the same time,” said Jessica Newton, Programs Facilitator,

Coffs Harbour City Council Libraries.

Last year’s story, Philip Bunting’s ‘Give Me Some Space’ was even read by NASA astronaut Shannon Walker live from the International Space Station.

Around 1.98 million participants at over 33,000 locations tuned in to see Shannon’s gravity-free read.

So, it’s ‘Family Tree’ for this year’s reading, a sweet and heartfelt celebration of family and community.

‘Family Tree’ will be read

by Coffs Harbour Library staff, who will also be sharing their favourite stories about family and singing songs and rhymes.

“There will also be the chance to contribute to our very own library family tree,” said Bec.

q Coffs Harbour Library Assistant Bec and her children get comfy for storytime.

All ages can attend the session.

Drive So Others Survive

By Andrea FERRARI

NATIONAL Road Safety Week is a campaign created to focus on how we drive and if our driving may cause harm to others on the road.

Last year, over 7,500 people were moderately to severely injured and hundreds killed on NSW roads.

Also in 2021 some ten percent of crashes in our Coffs Harbour LGA were attributed to fatigue and 27 percent to speeding - higher than the state average.

Traffic injury is the biggest killer of children under fifteen and the second biggest killer of all Australians aged between fifteen and 24.

All last week and open until this Sunday 22 May, people can visit the Sunflower Garden created at North Coast Regional Botanic Garden in Coffs as a place to reflect on lives lost or changed on our roads.

Visitors to the garden can take a yellow ribbon and make a pledge, mindful of the

campaign’s motto – Drive So Others Survive The sad fact is that young lives are continuing to be lost on our roads.

Acting Inspector Jarrod Langan, Traffic and Highway

Patrol Command said, “There are restrictions for novice drivers on our roads that are in place to protect our young drivers.

“All of these mean nothing if young drivers do not

drive responsibly and to the conditions.

“To lose the life of a young person on our roads when it’s due to a poor decision is so devastating for family, friends and those that have to respond.

“This week we not only remember those who have lost their lives, but also reinforce the message that the actions you take whilst driving can have a detrimental effect on people’s lives.

“I urge all drivers to take care, don’t drive whilst being distracted, abide by the road rules and don’t let alcohol and drugs mix with your driving,” he said.

Chief Inspector Brendan Gorman, Coffs/Clarence PD said, “This week we remember those who have lost their lives on the roads.

“We also take time to think of the actions that we can all take to prevent the further loss of life on our roads.

“Every loss of life has a ripple effect across our

community, including the devastating effect of the loss of life on first aiders, emergency services and regional communities.

“Everyone has a responsibility to ensure that those we love and others on the roads can travel and return home safely.

“I implore all users of the road to slow down, stay alert and drive so everyone survives.”

Look out for information

on Fatality Free Friday which is on Friday 27 May. This is a national campaign.

“We encourage any individual, group or school to get involved during May or on Fatality Free Friday,” Donna Caley from The Australian Road Safety Foundation (ARSF) told News Of The Area.

Sign up to Sleep Out

By Andrea FERRARI A NIGHT under the stars is not so awe inspiring when you’re on the pavement, wrapped in all the clothes you have, with none of the facilities of a bathroom, bedroom or kitchen.

It’s hard to replicate that feeling but C.Ex’s annual Sleep Out takes a step in that direction in order to raise awareness of a homeless person’s plight and to raise funds.

The local community will once again band together with a focus on those doing it tough across the Coffs Coast by experiencing what many homeless Australians endure on any given night.

‘What a Wonderful World’ exhibition opens

By Andrea FERRARI

‘WHAT a Wonderful World’ is the new art exhibition by Coffs Harbour Creative Arts Group (CHCAG) opening at 2pm on Sunday 22 May. With its gallery ‘home’ at Coffs Harbour Showground, CHCAG has been busy with the Coffs Harbour Show art exhibition.

“All the artworks from the Coffs Harbour Show have been taken down and our CHCAG crew has been busy hanging the next display, the ‘What a Wonderful World’ art exhibition,” said Isabella Brandli, speaking on behalf of the group.

This is a double exhibition, with CHCAG members sharing works in an array of media including

promote the art of calligraphy within the local area and its surrounds.

They meet on the second Saturday of each month for the study, practice and teaching of a variety of calligraphic styles in a friendly, supportive, and social atmosphere.

President Nerise Windsor said, “Calligraphy, as taught and practised by the Coffs Calligraphers, is much more than putting pen to paper; it’s writing on leaves, rocks,

umbrellas, clothing, and bodies, as well as making books and papers.”

What a Wonderful World is on display until Wednesday July 6.

The Gallery is open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 2pm, with free entry.

All artworks are for sale.

“This is your chance to secure a unique, local, and original work of art,” said Isabella.

There is also a People’s Choice award, announced at

the end of the exhibition.

“So, remember to vote for your favourite artwork… winning a People’s Choice is a wonderful validation of the appeal of an artist’s work.”

Livable office opens in Coffs

By Andrea FERRARI

LIVABLE, one of the Clarence Valley’s largest local support providers for disability, aged care and family services, has officially opened its doors to the Coffs Coast community.

Livable, a not-for-profit registered NDIS and home care package provider, offers community support programs to those living with a disability and residents over 65 years.

"We’re excited to bring a

new standard of care to NDIS and Aged Care customers on the Coffs Coast,” Livable’s CEO Daniel Becker told News Of The Area.

“Ours is a personcentered model of care where every individual is valued and included in the design and delivery of their supports.

“At Livable we’re passionate about empowering people to live life their way,” he said.

With the aim to empower their clients, Livable

Woopi Rotary is working with DV Safe Phone, an organisation which collects, repurposes and gifts mobile phones to victims of domestic violence through registered charities, safe houses and authorities serving this vulnerable community.

The Safe Phones are then provided as part of an

individual's 'safe' or 'escape plan', offering a lifeline to call for help when it is needed most.

Woopi Rotarian Patty Delaney, one of the coordinators on the project, told News Of The Area, “Anyone can play a vital role in helping victims of domestic violence, by either gifting your old phone, or helping raise vital funds to further our work.

“With over two million known victims of domestic violence in Australia - and increasing urgency arising from COVID-19 lockdowns - we really need your help,” she urged.

According to Daniel Becker, expanding services to the Coffs Coast aligns with Livable’s mission to deliver better outcomes for the region’s diverse community.

“Our team goes above

Walk the anti-racism walk

By Andrea FERRARI

WHAT is your view on how far Australia has come in eradicating racism?

That is the question motivating Peter Elzer, a Coffs Harbour local since 1974, to take some big steps to raise awareness of racism in Australia.

“In recent times I have witnessed several racist incidents, prompting me to commence a one-man campaign called Stamp Out Racism 2022,” Peter told News Of The Area.

On December 23, at the age of 67, Peter will commence a 2022 km walk from Melbourne to Seventeen Seventy (north of Bundaberg),

unassisted, enduring the intense heat of summer.

“I anticipate the journey will take 101 days of backto-back walking, hoping to average a minimum of twenty kilometres per day.”

Peter, who believes racism is still lingering in our rural and regional areas, says the campaign will see him attempt a long, gruelling trek, which, hopefully, will gain sufficient support and attention to enable him to deliver his message of awareness and evoke real action.

People can show their support for Peter and interact with him and his campaign by joining the Facebook group 'Stamp_Out_Racism_2022'.

So far the Facebook group

q Peter Elzer walks to Stamp Out Racism, with his Trekkers Friend backpack-cum-trailer that he will take on his big walk.

Friday, 20 May 2022

has hundreds of supporters, and Peter's target is currently set at 5,000-plus.

The route will take in the villages of Yea, Yarck and Mansfield, before heading up the Hume and Olympic Highways through Wangaratta, Albury, Wagga, Junee, Coota, Young to Cowra and Bathurst to metropolitan Sydney.

Sleeping rough and 3am starts will be the norm for Peter on this trek, with only the occasional motel sleepover providing relief.

“The remainder of nights will be spent recharging outdoors with the night sky as company,” said Peter.

As a 55-year veteran fan of rubgy league, Peter will

walk to every NRL club in the Sydney metropolitan area, to show appreciation for the huge amount of work many sporting clubs do in promoting inclusion and diversity.

Coffs Harbour will also be part of his route and anyone wishing to participate for part of the Coffs Coast, Peter says would be welcome company.

Peter's message will express the viewpoint that Australia needs to be honest about its past racism and put a stop to the negative aspects of racism.

“Australia needs to come

to terms with the brutality of our colonial history and educate our youth with total honesty,” said Peter.

“The important subject of sovereignty will also need a resolution which is satisfactory to First Nations peoples.

“Hopefully, then, Australia will commence on a path forward for Indigenous aspirations to be met.”

He also claims many large, regional employers under the 'Clubs Australia' umbrella who provide services, entertainment and dining facilities need to do more to

engage with diverse cultures, by creating entertainment, services and sponsorships, aimed at inclusion.

Over the coming months you may see Peter walking the walk, along the breakwater and over Muttonbird Island or south to Bonville and out to Dorrigo and back, gradually stepping up to the fitness needed ”to attempt my walk”, he said.

He believes one man can make a difference...”one step at a time”.

New Life on the Urunga Wetland

By Andrea FERRARI

BIRDERS are feasting their eyes on a local family of Magpie Geese with their nine goslings this Autumn.

The flourishing family was discovered by Chris Gillan and Merren Weaver at the Urunga Wetland on 23 April.

Bellingen Birders group members and Bellinger Keys residents Ulrieke and Ian Kethel told News Of The Area, “It looks like when we got sick of all the rain, the waterbirds had their best life.”

Last year the same trio of two females and one gander bred seven goslings on the Bellinger Keys Lake.

“We suspected they were breeding again, because they

started to chase away last year’s surviving four grown geese.

“It is normal for Magpie Geese to breed during wet periods and for a gander to have two females, who lay their eggs into the same nest and all three look after the young.

“There have been days

when the family seems to have vanished, but last night we discovered them floating along very close to the edge.”

However, the sad news is that the Kethels counted only six goslings.

“The other three goslings might have been taken by eels or birds.”

The good news is, they

have grown in size and are making happy chirping sounds.

“We watched the parents dragging up bits of water lily stems and roots for the babies and also trampling down the spike rushes so they could reach the seeds.

“The parents don't seem to be disturbed by the presence of humans but become very protective when other geese approach.

“All together we have counted the presence of

seven other adult geese in the wetland.”

The female geese from last year's hatching have attracted a new gander and there is hope that they will start breeding too.

Lately the wetland has sprung back to life with the arrival of five Hardhead Ducks, Black Ducks, Wood Ducks, an Australasian Grebe and a beautiful Chestnut Teal.

“We also watched a fight

between two male swans while the female waited to see who would come out the winner,” said the Kethels.

You never know what you find when you wander in the wetland.

Local volunteer in running for award

By Susan KONTIC

COFFS Harbour's Helen Mears is a finalist in the 2021 NSW Health Awards, which honour the outstanding contributions of our NSW Health heroes.

Winners had not been announced at the time of publication but, winner or not, Helen’s many years of volunteering are worthy of recognition.

Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh said Helen – a finalist in the Volunteer of the Year category – is a wonderful ambassador for the Coffs Coast and he wishes her every success in the awards.

“Helen Mears has been a United Hospital Auxiliaries volunteer at Coffs Harbour Health Campus for the past 40 years and has been President of the local UHA group, affectionately known as the Pink Ladies, for over 30 years,” Mr Singh said.

“The Pink Ladies under Helen’s leadership have raised more than $3 million for the hospital.

“Helen has tirelessly raised funds for medical equipment, staffed the hospital’s cafe

and gift shop, and recruited, managed and inspired countless volunteers.

“Helen’s remarkable contribution to Coffs Harbour Hospital can truly be regarded as going above and beyond.”

In December last year, Helen was named the NSW 2021 joint Senior Volunteer of the Year in the NSW Volunteer of the Year Awards for her outstanding service to the Coffs Harbour community. q Helen Mears has been a volunteer in the health sector for more than 40 years.

Local Students Shine at the TAFE NSW Excellence Awards

By Sam PARKER

COFFS Coast TAFE student Maxyn Dorz has some impressive new glassware on show after registering two top gongs at the TAFE NSW Excellence Awards held last week.

Miss Dorz, who studied a Certificate III in screen and media received the honours for both VET in Schools student of the year, and Creative Design and Ideation Student of the Year.

The accolades, awarded for exemplary academic achievements, demonstrated leadership qualities, commitment to industry and exceptional attitude to learning were a cherry on the top, according to the young scholar.

“The course was really valuable in helping me figure out my options in the future.

“It gave me the practical experience to figure out which path I wanted to follow within the film industry.”

She said that in her final year of studies the collaboration between TAFE and her school, Bishop Druitt College, was essential.

“Both TAFE and my school encouraged me to get involved with the course.

“They helped with

all of the logistical issues which made my experience, especially in year twelve much easier.”

Port Macquarie based plumber Joel Bailey also received a major award for Trainee of the Year for his dedicated work while at the Coffs Harbour Campus.

The North region TAFE NSW Excellence Awards celebrate the academic achievement of students

and draw from a pool of thousands of candidates from the Hunter to Kingscliff.

Other major award winners at the 2022 awards were Belmont’s Dennis Gordon for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Student of the Year, Grafton’s Jonathon O’Connor for Apprentice of the Year and Muswellbrook’s Lauren Booth for TAFE Student of the Year.

So much more than tea

By Andrea FERRARI

BACK in the swing of its Friendship Afternoon Teas (FAT), Woolgoolga Red Cross Branch members are delighted that the first two months of their revitalised FAT get togethers have bounced back with a thriving attendance.

“Providing a line-up of great local entertainment, music and sing-a-longs with lots of old favourites and, of course, tasty homemade food, it was very special to see so many people turn up, some familiar faces and many new to the afternoon,” Robyn Rooth from Woolgoolga Red Cross told News Of The Area.

The raffles are, as always, a great success too, with a fruit tray donated by Woolworths and multiple prizes ensuring that monies raised contribute to the humanitarian work of the Red Cross.

The next FAT will be held on Friday 27 May at 2pm at the Seniors Centre in Boundary St, Woolgoolga.

Entry is only $2 and covers everything.

“Everyone, especially seniors, are invited to attend for a most enjoyable afternoon.”

Entertainment this month will be provided by students from Woolgoolga Performing Arts Studio.

Helping others at Coffs Health Campus

By Andrea FERRARI

A RANGE of reasons drive or beckon people to volunteer, to give up their time in free service to others.

In the lead-up to National Volunteer Week, 16 – 22 May, 2022, themed Better Together, News Of The Area meets two volunteers at Coffs Harbour Health Campus.

Ian Hodges, a former police officer, has had the role of General Volunteer at the Health Campus for three years.

“I’ve been volunteering for some 30 years across a range of services, including Sawtell Meals on Wheels, the Retired Police

Association NSW, 2AirFM community radio in Coffs, Police Legacy, Sawtell RSL and APEX.” What led Ian to volunteering was a need to be active and give back.

“I can’t sit at home and watch the grass grow; I wanted to give back to the community.”

Ian is rewarded every day by the feeling volunteering gives him.

“I meet fantastic people and get to meet other volunteers who are passionate about volunteering.”

Thinking about the skills you need to be a volunteer, Ian said, “You need a willingness to help people.”

To Ian, National Volunteer Week is a pat on the back.

“It’s great to see volunteers recognised for the work they do and if it wasn’t for volunteers a lot of organisations wouldn’t be able to operate.”

“I have started a special fundraising effort to assist

“This is the plan I’ve put in place.

“I tutor for seven hours a week at $40 per hour in mathematics.

“This allows me to give about $280 per week to these charities.”

Drew was also Careers Adviser and Maths Teacher at Toormina High in the 80s before taking a promotion to Dunedoo, as well as teaching in his retirement at Coffs Harbour High School, John Paul College and Orara High School.

“I’m looking for more work, more people to tutor, and raise more money “I currently have three more spaces to fill, preferably Year 11 and 12 students but all are welcome,” said Drew.

So far through his maths tutoring fundraiser he has given at least $5,000 to these charities.

Vote for Volunteers

By Andrea FERRARI

COFFS Coast Volunteering hopes the celebration and recognition of volunteers during the recent National Volunteer Week (16-22 May), has been heard as people head to vote in the Federal Election.

Coffs Coast Volunteers is advocating for political parties and candidates to commit to a positive agenda on volunteering, including the implementation of a National Strategy for Volunteering.

“With over nineteen percent of people in Coffs Harbour actively volunteering and setting an Australian record for the most volunteers registered in an LGA, we would hope that our community values around

volunteering are heard loud and clear,” Di Woods, Manager of Coffs Coast Volunteering and Coffs Harbour Neighbourhood Centre told News Of The Area.

Di says volunteers are integral to achieving many national priorities, playing vital roles in key national workforces – in aged, disability and palliative care and in mental health and community services.

She also cited volunteers’ roles in emergency response, recovery and resiliencebuilding, as well as community sport.

“Yet repeated governments have failed to recognise and invest in these key volunteer workforces,” she said.

“Communities with active volunteers have strong social capital and are more resilient

when crises hit.

“If we care about the nation’s mental health and the resilience of communities, we need to care about sustaining volunteering.

Volunteering does not “just happen” as Di points out, “It requires strategic consideration and investment to ensure its sustainability.”

Effective volunteering programs require recruitment, training, ongoing support, and recognition.

Deliberate and ongoing investment in volunteering infrastructure is essential to ensuring that volunteering can continue to deliver the myriad of benefits it provides.

“Failure to invest in a National Strategy for Volunteering is a direct threat to numerous services, supports and benefits in our community.”

While Coffs has a thriving volunteering culture, there has been a decline in formal volunteering over the past twenty years, significantly exacerbated by COVID-19.

“Without a National Strategy for Volunteering, we risk taking volunteers and the breadth of their contribution for granted, which will significantly impact local organisations, communities, and citizens who rely on the service of Australia’s volunteers every day,” said Di. This Federal Election, Coffs Coast Volunteering is urging our community to ‘Vote for Volunteers’ and calling on candidates to recognise and support the vital role of volunteers, volunteer-involving organisations and volunteering support services in their electorates.

VIEW Clubs call on volunteers to reconnect with community KORORA VIEW Club is calling on members of the community to consider volunteering for children’s education charity The Smith Family, as part of National Volunteer Week (16-22 May).

VIEW (Voice, Interests and Education of Women) has close to 300 clubs across Australia, all dedicated to supporting children in need with their education through The Smith Family.

Members do this through community fundraising, spreading awareness, and volunteering.

A key theme for National Volunteer Week this year is bringing people together through volunteering, which Korora Club President Julianne said is more important than ever before.

“Last year, COVID meant we couldn’t have that hands-on connection with the community, which was really hard for a lot of people.

“Volunteering is a great way to get back out there, make friends, and feel like you’re really making a difference to the lives of young people and their families,” she said.

“We are always looking for women to join us in supporting The Smith Family and we’d encourage anyone interested to get in touch and come along to our next meeting to learn more about VIEW. “Korora VIEW Club meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month in Coffs Harbour.”

The Smith Family’s CEO, Doug Taylor, said that volunteers have played a vital role in delivering much-needed support for its work during a particularly disruptive period.

Friday, 20 May 2022

“It’s been a tumultuous year with the impacts of COVID-19 and most recently, the devastating weather conditions across Queensland and New South Wales affecting so many Australians,” Mr Taylor said.

“We are very grateful to all VIEW members for continuing to donate their time and energy throughout these times.

“And while volunteering provides a fantastic opportunity to give back, it’s also about building a community and support network that makes such a positive difference to everyone involved,” he added.

Summer Beach Hop Rescheduled JUST over a month ago, local events promoter John Logan cut a very dejected figure when his prized Summer Beach Hop event was rained out.

Sitting at the Jetty Foreshores as the rain belted down, John had to take quick action to ensure attendee safety.

“We have been treated very kindly over the years with the weather but this time when the water started coming up under the VIP tent and it was too dangerous to run power cables to feed the infrastructure, we knew we were in trouble,” John said.

The team held a quick meeting, and a reluctant decision was made to postpone.

This week however, the team was all smiles as they announced the new date of Sunday, June 12.

The event will now be held in conjunction with the Harbourside Markets.

“When John approached me with the idea, we saw this as a great way to partner our two events into one big one,” said Kim Towner, Harbourside Markets.

Stewart Copeland from the Advanced Car Club readily agreed and will bring the Shannons Show and Shine on board for the

HYPOTHETICAL Taking a Legal Look

DEAR Jasminda,

By Manny WOOD

How do we balance fairness with sanity in terms of music when travelling with our teenage children?

Morrie B.

Donald had nose bent out of joint THE Benders were pioneering banana growers in north-east NSW. Brian was the patriarch of the Bender family and when he died, he left his share of the plantations, and commercial properties to his children George and Isobel.

George and Isobel continued the tradition and became key members of the Bender business.

Isobel loved the life so much she was married underneath a banana tree, and in a few short years she had three beautiful children.

Unfortunately, Isobel was tragically killed in an ice-skating accident while on holidays in Florida.

When her husband Donald read her will, he was confident that Isobel’s share in the farm and commercial properties would be able to support him and the children, as he received the whole of her estate.

However, the solicitor informed Donald that the farming land and the commercial properties were left to George and Isobel as joint tenants and if one tenant dies, the other tenant inherits the property.

In this case George would become the sole owner.

George, who loved his sister, but was not so keen on Donald, wanted to support his young nieces and nephew, so he deposited $300,000 in trust for each child.

Nevertheless, Donald was upset and wanted to contest the will, as he believed he should receive Isobel’s share in the farm and commercial properties.

The only assets held by Isobel was an everyday bank account holding $5,000.

Donald would have been left with only $5,000 but as a prudent business operator, Isobel had a life insurance policy and under a Buy/ Sell Agreement, Donald receives $1.5 million for Isobel’s share in the Bender business and decides not to contest the will.

George calls a Bender business meeting and asks their solicitor to detail how best to avoid these situations, as it is more economical and efficient to deal with these issues while parties are alive.

Thank you to Anthony Fogarty for his assistance with this column.

Dear Morrie,

The Good Fight DEAR News Of The Area,

THE Greens in this country and across the world have been fighting the good fight for over 20-plus years, demanding real action on climate change, protection of our natural world, justice for our first nations peoples and support for the most vulnerable in our communities.

We have been the only consistent voice in this country (in all levels of government) that have been tirelessly working to uphold a sense of fairness and equity in a broken system.

Surely this must count for something.

So, it’s really disheartening to hear that some traditional Greens voters are considering voting Independent number 1 and Greens number 2 in the upcoming Federal election.

The Greens Federal MPs were the first to call for marriage equality, a banking royal commission, protection for refugees and a Federal ICAC. We are not like the other major parties.

We are a grass roots bottom-up political

party that refuses to accept corporate donations and relies on its members and supporters’ passion and commitment to social justice to continue our work across the country.

Our vast range of policies are shaped by our diverse membership and are based on science and expert opinion. Voting Greens number 2 is not the best way to show you want genuine change.

It will mean that we lose funding to continue this work.

It’s important to remember the Greens will still be here fighting after this upcoming election and the one after that and the one after that.

We know there is a better way, and we have the broad scope of policies that show how this transition can happen. You need to ask yourself, can the same be said for the Independents?

So please vote Greens number 1 and use your preferences wisely.

Regards, Dominic KING, Bellingen Shire.

Party and politics, not good governance and policy DEAR News Of The Area, KEITH Bensley’s very well written letter (‘If Nationals are not reflecting community views, have your say’, p27, Coffs Coast News Of The Area, 29 April), which puts a very reasoned view that in order to effect change within a party, and express a diversity of views in a party, the best course of action is to join a party to be heard.

“Better to be in the tent contributing, than outside the tent and dissatisfied.”

It’s a great idea, in theory.

But I suggest that the high road of major party politics is full of potholes and large landslides.

A bit like the road from Bellingen to Dorrigo at the moment.

28 COFFS COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

In fact for many other roads in our region.

I suggest that the reality of ‘modern politics’ in our existing major party system works somewhat differently to that.

A few phrases spring to mind, including branch stacking, preselection by powerbrokers not party members, manipulation and corruption of party processes, pork barrelling according to the colours in a spreadsheet.

It’s more about party and politics rather than good governance and policy.

Look at what is ‘announced’ rather than what is ‘done’….or more often, not.

Being outside the tent and dissatisfied is an understandable response when a party system continues to focus on the game of politics.

However it’s how we step out of the tent that counts.

We as a community change the way the system works by choosing an Independent

Headphones.

Preferably not for the driver, who, in my opinion deserves preferential treatment and should be able to enjoy their playlist - a finely curated mix that allows them to go into a calm and possibly nostalgic state, therefore able to deal with lunatics overtaking on the inside lane, backseat arguments, and various other unwanted distractions.

If, however, you'd like to be a bit more democratic in the decisionmaking process, then it should be a playlist that alternates the tastes of each passenger.

What you are left with is an eclectic combination of songs that will keep you all happy for at least 25 percent of the journey, and gritting your teeth for the other 75 percent. There is also the option of silence, or some gentle prodding about career aspirations (which will quickly lead to silence in my experience).

Without fail, though, a calm trip can be achieved if each car member has responsibility for their own listening enjoyment and this is where individual devices, though not ideal for communicating with each other, will ensure that you are all still on speaking terms when you arrive at your destination.

Carpe diem, Jasminda. candidate who values a diversity of views, not a party view.

And we as a community can choose to allocate our own preferences the way we want, rather than what is suggested to us by parties.

It’s a much more satisfying, inclusive and quicker approach to getting our voices heard than by chipping away at the coalface of the major party system.

Regards, Juliet THOMAS, Sawtell.

COFFS COASTNews Of The Area

OPINION

Making it worse, but not for all DEAR News Of The Area,

THE Coalition's latest contribution to the housing crisis allows

people to sacrifice their super savings in order to enter into the housing market.

Like every first home buyer scheme before

it, it will effectively increase demand without addressing the underlying problem of supply.

There are enough economists in the

Government for them to be aware that increasing demand will lead to further price increases which will negate any program aimed at helping

Independents Unpersuasive DEAR News of the Area,

THE more I think about the teal independents who are standing in the Federal election, the more I find the case for them to be unpersuasive.

Establishing an Independent Commission Against Corruption is one of their major goals but if there is a change of government this will happen regardless of independents.

Independents may have a voice in parliament but not a direct voice within the government or the alternative government.

If they have the balance of power, they will have some power but only on the margins.

Where the two major parties are of the same mind, independents will have no power to change anything.

As well, independents

can never aspire to a ministerial position where the opportunity to implement real change lies.

The position held by women such as Julia Gillard or Jacinda Adern would be closed and many of these independents are clearly talented women.

The teal independents are critical of the major parties in regard to action on climate, but it needs to be remembered that both of

the major parties have had a leader who was seriously burned and lost power directly due to their efforts in regard to the climate issue.

One of the leading parties put into legislation a serious and practical plan of action to reduce carbon in the atmosphere and it ended up costing them the government.

The political reality is that there are some electorates where a strong

first home buyers.

Superannuation minister Jane Hume has admitted as much (Radio National May 16).

So when you vote on Saturday, and when you lay awake wondering how your children will ever be

able to afford a home, be sure to ask yourself: in whose interest is the coalition actually working?

emphasis on climate policy means you will receive low poll numbers and stand no chance of election.

The electorates where independents do stand a chance of winning, in most cases already have a member of parliament committed to this issue and displacing them hardly seems like a step forward.

The Greens Party are also alarmed to see many supporters flock to independents who mostly lack the Greens’ environmental breadth,

knowledge and experience beyond the issue of climate change.

Finally, if all members of parliament were elected as independents it would only be a matter of time before they coalesced into factions and parties.

If a group of independents are elected to this next parliament it is highly likely that they will work together and in effect be a party.

Regards, John GRAY, Coffs Harbour.

For change, for the future and for hope.

DEAR News Of The Area,

PRIME Minister Scott Morrison and the coalition are running an election campaign around “don’t risk it, stick with what we have now”.

He is clearly saying that

what we have now is the best we can do.

Is that right?

Are young people condemned to never owning a home?

Are wage earners stuck with falling real wages that don’t keep pace with

inflation?

Is the haphazard, inadequate response to fire and floods the best we will get?

Are we all going to suffer old age with inadequate care and support?

Are we just going to

turn our backs on future generations by failing to address catastrophic climate change?

The Prime Minister is selling a pretty bleak message.

It is a message of complacency.

It is a message lacking in optimism, energy and ideas.

It is a message from a tired Prime Minister and a tired government.

Worse still, it is a message without hope.

I cannot accept the Government’s message.

Regards, Marcus ROCK, Coffs Harbour.

We have a right to hope for a better future and an obligation to act for ourselves and the generations that follow us.

That’s why I will be voting Labor.

For change, for the future and for hope.

Regards, Tony JUDGE, Coffs Harbour.

When is an independent not an independent?

DEAR News Of The Area,

WHEN is an independent not an independent?

Is it when they are supported by and accept donations from a number of sources?

Is it when donations are made in another form other than money?

I know that the Labor party consists of members who donate their time and funds when possible.

They are volunteers,

local people living in Cowper communities with the goal of helping to improve life and conditions for all.

Over many, many years, talks and discussions have taken place in communities within the electorate to

find out the problems and requirements.

This is the balanced voice for Cowper and Australia.

It is not the same as the ‘other big party’.

OzGREEN’s food goals

By Andrea FERRARI

BUILDING a sustainable local food system across the Mid North Coast is a plan that is being actioned stepby-step by invested locals and driven by OzGREEN. Food growers, producers, retailers, distributors and consumers are all working together to create a thriving local food system, beginning in Bellingen Shire and spreading up and down the Coffs Coast.

“Over the last six months a diverse range of local people have attended workshops and contributed to creating a Bellingen Shire Food Resilience Vision and Action Plan for the next

ten years,” Partnerships Manager at OzGREEN, Anna Juodvalkis, told News Of The Area.

“The end result is an inspiring set of food systems goals that are economically, socially and environmentally sustainable.”

One of the exciting actions listed in the plan is to raise the profile of local food by providing opportunities for people to participate in local experiential events such as farm tours, long lunches, food fairs and harvest festivals.

“What better way to launch the new vision than to do so at one of these events,” said Anna.

The Food Resilience

q As parents, Sam and Georgina Baker of Levenvale Farm especially believe in local food resilience.

Vision will be showcased at a community event at Levenvale Farm in Valery on World Environment Day, Sunday 5 June from 10am to 12pm.

“Levenvale Farm is a stunning local property that practices regenerative agriculture and produces a delicious local product, marketed as Bello Beef,” said Anna.

People who attend the community event will also enjoy a Bello Beef barbeque brunch and a tour of the farm if weather permits.

“As parents and consumers we certainly are concerned about the state of our food system and resilience,” Georgina Baker, owner at Levenvale Farm, told NOTA. “We are privileged to be in a position where we can grow our own organic food through regenerative

consume.

“We are huge advocates for localised food systems, supporting local growers and producers and also enabling land sharing and resources.

“We believe through a regenerated and rehabilitated ecosystem, we better prepare ourselves for environmental threats and through a stronger localised food system we become a more resilient community,” she said.

Bellingen Shire Mayor Steve Allan told NOTA, "Bellingen Shire is known as much for its quality agriculture sector as for its incredible environment, arts and culture.

“This Food Resilience Vision forges the creative,

innovative and futureminded spirit of our Shire's residents with the diverse and experienced growers and primary producers of the region.

“The Vision and Action Plan will support producers, and everyone involved in our local food system, to prepare and adapt to the changing climate and the risks and opportunities that climate change presents," said Steve.

Spaces for this event are limited and registrations are essential.

Please visit w w w. o z g re e n . o r g / foodresiliencevision to fill out the event registration form or contact anna@ ozgreen.org.au for further information.

“I hope that everyone who has donated to help our service in the past, feel just as proud as I do of the remarkable efforts made by every person in our rescue helicopter family delivering the lifesaving support that our community has needed during these trying times” said Mr Jones.

“We thank everyone for

the support that helps us to stand side by side with the community during these trying times.

“As a local charity, I would also like to say a special thank you in advance to those who are able to help us once again with a donation, large or small, during our appeal,” Jones concluded.

Westpac Rescue Helicopter Calls For Help As Appeal Launches THE region’s Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service is launching its annual End of Financial Year (EOFY) Appeal and none could be more critical given the impact that the recent Lismore floods have had on the service’s operations, with water inundating the Lismore base at the peak of the flooding.

Such was the extent of the damage, it is anticipated that the service will continue to operate from a temporary facility at the Ballina Airport for three to five more months as repair and rebuild is undertaken.

Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service’s CEO, Richard Jones OAM remarked, “Despite the challenges, our crews, in partnership with medical teams from NSW Ambulance and NSW Health, performed over 50 missions during the peak of the flood emergency.

“I would also like to say to all residents of the Northern Rivers that you have been firmly in the hearts and minds of our staff, and I hope you are in the process of a positive recovery.”

Friday, 20 May 2022

On the morning of the flood, crews on shift departed the Lismore base and could see their own vehicles, the base itself and the surrounding community succumbing to the rising waters.

It was less than 500m from their base that the first rescue took place, beginning one of the busiest weeks in the Service’s history.

Nathan Scard, Lismore Base Manager and pilot, was on base as the disaster unfolded.

“It is hard to put it into words just how overwhelming the sight of seeing that much water coming up from all directions was for everyone on shift at the time.

“It hit home very quickly just how much trouble the town and region was going to be in once the team was airborne.

“Our thoughts quickly turned to the situation at hand and the challenge of relocating our operations to Ballina to enable us to continue to respond to the numerous tasking requests that were coming in.

“Being on the front line, side by side with our community, and the many emergency service personnel who have worked so hard since the disaster started, it has never been so humbling to know that the donation support we receive allows us to respond in such desperate times.”

The service also suffered the loss of its Helicopter Op Shop in the Lismore CBD, a valuable fundraising vehicle for the service, flood waters inundated the shop, going past the height of the ceiling and into the roof cavity.

Mr Jones commented, “The shop was operated entirely by volunteers, and we hope that one day we can find new premises to open again.”

Donations to the appeal will remain local at one of the service’s three bases in Belmont, Tamworth and Lismore, which service close to two million residents in the northern half of NSW. Since March 2020, the service has responded from its bases in Newcastle, Tamworth and Lismore to

almost 3,000 calls for help and in every instance, they have needed to take extra precautions to care for patients and their aircraft crews due to the everlingering presence of COVID. “It has been an unbelievable period for so many people who live throughout the regions that our bases serve and support.

Lights out for Marlins and Snappers

By David WIGLEY THE SCU Marlins and Coffs Harbour Snappers played a midweek slugfest which left everyone in the dark after the flood lights went off and the match was abandoned during the second half.

The evening started on a damp note when the sprinklers came on before kick-off creating a delay, but once the match got underway the crowd enjoyed a typical end to end derby with lots of big hits.

At two tries apiece, the

q

match was finely poised at 15-12 to the Marlins with the Snappers on the charge with a penalty in front of the goalposts when the lights went off.

Both clubs walked away disappointed and Marlins coach AJ Gilbert shared his frustration with the early bath.

“Was a pretty frustrating way to finish the game, with lights and sprinkler issues setting back the start of first grade,” he said.

“The overall match was a bit of a slugfest, some massive contact in all areas of the

q

game.

“There will definitely be some sore bodies today.”

Snappers coach Brendan Hoy echoed the sentiment of a disappointing conclusion to the derby.

“First grade was a typical tough contest with nothing in it right up to when the game was abandoned because the lights went out,” he said.

“At that time the Marlins were leading 15-12 however we had just been awarded a penalty right in front which would have levelled the game.

“Very disappointing for everyone involved.”

But Hoy was pleased how his team backed up for the Tuesday catch-up match

following a gruelling 38-34 win against the Port Pirates at the weekend.

“Our guys were gutsy after a two day turnaround from a hard game against Pirates which produced lots of bumps and bruises.

“The Marlins were fresh as their game last week was another wash out.

“We lost two experienced forwards through injury Chris Tonks and Cameron Sweeney in the first half which meant the younger players had to step up, which they did.

“Blake Southern was great at half and Trent Withers and Carter Hoy stepped up and took over the team.

“Great to have Josh Miller back in the team and the twins Tom and Hayden Sheely have staked their claims to stay in the first grade squad for a number of years.

It was a typical derby match where every ball was contested.

Snapper and Marlins players lock horns.

ISLA Juffermans has received the ultimate honour of being selected to represent her country.

The former Coffs Harbour Suns junior has been selected to the Australian Under 17 women’s team, who will try to qualify for the 2022 FIBA Under-17 Women’s Basketball World Cup to be held in Hungary in July.

The 17-year-old was selected to the national team after outstanding performances playing for NSW Country at the Under 18 Australian Junior Championships, in which she led the event in scoring and rebounding, and after attending national selection camps at the AIS held over the past month.

Juffermans and the Australian Sapphires will embark on a European tour if they qualify for the World Cup. The Australian Sapphires need to be one of the top four teams at the Asia Cup held in

Jordan next month to qualify for the World Cup. The Australian Sapphires will also take part in smaller tournaments in between events, which will also prove beneficial to expanding their game time and experience against international teams.

The new Australian representative shared with News Of The Area how much it meant for her to be selected to wear the green and gold.

“It means a lot, as I have been working for this for so long,” she said.

“And it’s so amazing to represent not only my country, but my Coffs Basketball Association and my family.”

Coffs Harbour Basketball Association acknowledged the former Suns junior's massive achievement on its social media platform.

“This is a massive accomplishment for the 17-year-old, who started playing here in Coffs Harbour ten years ago with her Mary Help of Christians team on

“On a wet night our backs were good with Buddy Hart running a group that had not trained together much.”

After scoring the match winner against the Pirates, crowd favourite Luke Papalardo put on a performance that earned him the respect of his teammates and the players’ player award.

“Once again Luke Papalardo on the wing impressed in attack but also defence where he chopped down guys twice his size,” said Hoy. “Luke is about 5’5 when standing on a ladder but is one of the best tacklers in the side.

“We think awarding the game to the Marlins would not be fair or do the game justice, I know the AJ Marlins boys were disappointed as well.”

Saturday mornings.

“Isla represented the Coffs Harbour Suns in our rep program from under 12s through to under 16s.

“Isla travels to Jordan and Hungary next month to play at the FIBA World Cup, and we can’t wait to cheer her on!

“Isla, everyone here in Coffs Harbour couldn't be prouder of you.

“With hard work and dedication, dreams really do come true.”

The young centre has been on the radar of Basketball Australia recently, having spent six months last year in Basketball Australia’s Centre of Excellence at the AIS as part of a scholarship provided by Basketball Australia’s High Performance team.

Juffermans follows in the footsteps of another former Coffs Harbour Suns junior who plays at an international level, as Kirsty Wallace recently played for the Australian Opals and won a bronze medal playing for Australia at the FIBA Under-19 World Championship for Women in 2015.

Cameron Pollard wins All Abilities Championship

By Susan KONTIC GOLFER Cameron Pollard shows what can be achieved when you focus on ability rather than the disability.

The Assistant Golf Professional at Sawtell Golf Club recently won the All Abilities Championship contested during this year’s WA Open at Royal Fremantle Golf Club.

Playing on the same course, at the same time, and under the same playing conditions as the professionals, Australia’s leading golfers with a disability competed over 36 holes for the inaugural All Abilities Championship.

It was a big trip across to Western Australia to play on Saturday April 30 and Sunday May 1, and then fly back home, but Cameron is becoming accustomed to competing all over the country.

Just 23 years old, Cameron has been playing golf since he was old enough

Friday, 20 May 2022

to join his dad on the course, and he got his handicap when he was just twelve.

For the last six years he’s been taking his golf seriously, competing in All Abilities events around the country, although he says he’s “not too upset if he hits a bad shot, there’s always more opportunities,” and he focuses on those.

Cameron has worked in the Pro Shop at the Sawtell Golf Course for eight years and gets in as much practice as he can, honing his game with the experienced support of PGA of Australia professional Brendan Barnes.

All Abilities competitions are open to participants from across Australia who are vision impaired, amputees and players with intellectual and neurological disabilities.

Cameron has a number of disabilities, the most significant being autism, which affects the way he connects with people and interacts with them, often

misreading their emotions.

Cameron also has a bowel disease called Hirschsprung’s Disease, which required removal of his bowel.

And he also has a condition called Ehler-danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder that causes his joints to dislocate and he has needed several knee repairs.

Cameron says the knee operations have helped to keep him more stable throughout his swing.

Cameron’s attention now is on his next challenge at the NSW Inclusive Championships at Medowie, NSW in a week’s time, when he will be defending champion following his big win in Western Australia.

Two weeks later he will compete again at Redcliffe in Queensland.

But Cameron and his fellow competitors have their eyes on bigger prizes still.

What they would like to achieve is to have all

disability events inclusive with mainstream golf championships, with hopes that golf will soon be included as an Olympic sport.

www.newsofthearea.com.au

“They are great to coach, and this year our Suns 16s girls team is currently 8-0.”

The Under 16 Australian Junior Championships will be held from July 3-10 in Perth.

Association’s finals series are just around the corner with just three rounds to go until the current summer season’s semi-finals.

Rebels lead the way in the Men’s Draft League with 8 wins and no losses, while Saints lead the men’s social comp with 10 wins and 1 loss.

Let It Rain top the ladder in the Women’s Draft League.

q Cameron Pollard from Sawtell Golf Club, winner of the All Abilities Championship at Royal Fremantle Golf Club.

It’s certainly a goal worth pursuing.

In the meantime, News Of The Area is looking forward to reporting on Cameron

Pollard’s success at Medowie and Redcliffe in coming weeks.

“It meant Hockey Coffs Coast got the most respect from umpires and officials, and it proves we are doing something right.

“They represented themselves really well and made a good impression, and I couldn’t be much prouder of these kids.”

Rick Fischer coached Hockey Coffs Coast’s team to victory, and highlighted it was a collective effort to win the state title.

“I’d rather have a team of good players rather than one with just a couple of

great players.”

The Hockey Coffs Coast boys team even featured two top girls’ players, as

Fischer explained.

“We were actually short on numbers, so Breah Fischer and Mackenna

Ensbey played and they are both NSW girls’ representatives and more than held their own,” he

said, “And Breah got nominated by her peers as her team's best player.”

survived a scare, downing Boambee in a seven-goal thriller, with the Lions emerging victorious 4-3.

The Bombers set the tone early, scoring first before United struck three times before the break.

A resurgent Boambee then reeled in the Lions after half-time, netting twice to make it three

apiece.

But United marksman Marty Kelleher put any fairy-tale to bed, finishing from a set piece at the death for the win.

Coffs coach Glenn Williams said his opposition came prepared for battle.

“Boambee definitely turned up to win.”

He said he wants his team to be more clinical in future.

“We’ve certainly got stuff to work on, but we should’ve put the game away mid-way through the second half.”

He’s now looking ahead to the clash with second placed Bellingen this weekend.

“If you look at the table, it’s certainly going to be a battle.

“Bello has shown they’re going to be up there come finals.

“We just have to play our game, trust our process and see how we go from there.”

The other game of the night saw Sawtell and

Kempsey square off in a match that also produced goals, with the Saints narrowly defeating the Sawtell men 3-2.

The loss means the Scorpions sit just one place above the Kempsey side who are ninth and tenth respectively.

The Scorpions were starved of chances throughout the first half as Boambee controlled proceedings with deft short passing and a lot of onetwos, as well as constant pressure on the ball.

Kylie McDonald scored her second just before half-time as the Eagles took a 3-0 lead into the break which would prove to be unassailable.

The Scorpions came out

a completely different side to start the second half, turning the tables on the Eagles in a spirited display.

But the Eagles would keep a clean sheet and McDonald would get her hat trick as Boambee took home the three points for the first time this season.

Despite his side scoring four goals, it was a defensive play which caught the eye of Eagles coach Neil Witherdin.

Boambee Eagles soar to first win of the season

By Aiden BURGESS

BOAMBEE Eagles have soared to their first win of the season beating the Sawtell Scorpions 4-0 in the latest round of the inaugural Coastal League One Women competition.

Kylie McDonald scored a hat trick for the Eagles as a dominant first half set up the win for Boambee.

After a draw and a loss

at home in their first two games of the season, the Eagles came out all guns blazing against the Scorpions at the Coffs Synthetics scoring in the ninth minute courtesy of McDonald finishing a quality cross into the box.

Josie Helisma would get the second goal for the Eagles ten minutes later after finishing a deft through ball into the box.

Morris ran 60 metres to chase down a Scorpions forward,” he said.

“It’s things like that which are more important than scoring nice goals, as it creates a work ethic and commitment which rubs off on the rest of the players.

“To do that when we were up 4-0 was a great effort.”

The Eagles coach said it hadn't been an ideal start to the new season.

“We’ve had a disrupted start to the season as we’ve had four of our players out; two of our players have been out injured, one has retired and one is on a trip

around Australia,” he said.

“It may take us a while to get going, as we have a lot of young girls and older players who have only played in the women's second division.

“It’s going to be a challenge for us, and it's been really hard to keep the same team each week, and we had three first grade debutants today.”

Round 4 of the Coastal League One Women season also saw the Urunga Raiders win their third match in a row with a dominant 6-0 victory at home against the Macleay Valley Rangers.

Cooper's long drive toward golfing goals

seven years of age.

“He’s now got his GA down to 12.7 and he’s been playing a lot of the Jack Newton Junior Golf full course events.”

Next on the agenda is the Jack Newton Junior Golf State Titles before some further JNJG events.

Having achieved such incredible results means Cooper has qualified to play events in the United States and Ireland.

To help get him overseas Justin said the family is on the lookout for sponsorship as well as selling a treasured imported Chevy ute.

Meanwhile Cooper has a big goal he’s chasing.

“I’m trying to get my handicap down to single figures,” he said.

IT’S been a massive couple of months for precocious golfing talent Cooper Holman.

The eight-year-old recently won the national title for his age group and last weekend he finished runnerup at the Jack Newton Junior Golf North (JNJG) Coast Junior Masters in Kew in the Boys 11 and under division where the right hander was competing against boys three years older than him.

Being able to already drive the ball longer than 200 metres is an advantage for the Coffs Harbour Golf Club member.

Yet it’s been working hard on his short game under the watchful eye of coaches

Brandon Connor and Matt Allan that has taken Cooper’s game to the next level.

“I basically do 90 percent on the short game and ten percent down at the driving range,” Cooper said.

“I’m trying not to do any three putts.”

Cooper’s father Justin said the past twelve months has seen his son move to full length golf.

“His biggest focus the last twelve months has been focusing on a full course, so he’s obtained his Golf Australia handicap,” Justin said.

“He started on I think 16.6 for his GA which was really good considering he was just

work on, and stuck to our processes.

“If we stick to that and lift our intensity, we win the game.”

It wasn’t all plain sailing for the hosts however, as the southerners started the stronger of the two teams, pressuring the Tiger’s defensive line into a number of mistakes early on.

One such error led to a loose ball finding United striker Roan Whiteman, who

drove into the box and was wrangled to the ground by Coffs Coast’s Jacob Vidler.

The resulting penalty was then dispatched by Whiteman.

The Tigers were fortunate not to go two behind when their keeper Luke Kliendienst flew into a one-on-one challenge with a Southern attacker just outside the area.

After seeing yellow for the challenge, the keeper

who opened the scoring after capitalising on a loose clearance from a throw-in.

Former A-League premiership winner Troy Hearfield scored on the cusp of half-time for Sawtell which inspired a second half comeback from the Scorpions.

Hugo Alderman and Duncan Couper added to

the scoreline to secure a 3-1 victory and a precious three points on a congested CPL ladder.

Sawtell coach Joe Skyrtic was pleased how the Scorpions grew stronger as the game wore on.

“The start of the game was a bit of an arm wrestle getting used to the condition of the field,” he said.

Comeback Win for the Tigers in the CPL THE Coffs Coast Tigers have jumped to third on the Coastal Premier League table after downing fellow high-flyers Southern United 3-1 at the Coffs Coast Sport and Leisure Park’s synthetic pitches.

Tigers coach Luke Stow was happy with how his team ground out the win.

then proved himself a safe pair of hands and saved the subsequent free kick.

Following the break, the hosts appeared a different side, forcing Southern to defend deep into their own half.

The Tigers controlled the possession and a superb one-touch play led to Jacob Field opening their account.

The Coffs side then took the lead as a corner was directed to Matt Guyatt,

who poked home from close range.

The win was then sealed with Ptolemy Horan striking a penalty nicely into the side netting.

Luke Stow said he was proud of the team’s determination, but added that they needed a lashing at the half.

“We could’ve been two or three down and half time and I wasn’t happy.

revved them up but they responded and came from one-nil down.”

Southern United’s coach Jonathon Newman, said his team was ruing the dropped points.

“I thought we really took the game to them, the game plan was very well executed and we utterly deserved the half-time lead.

“But then the second half comes, and you have to ask that again.”

q Jack Rann playing the ball out from the back for Sawtell.

“We gradually grew into the game holding possession of the ball quite well and finding pockets of space to create goal scoring opportunities.

“An error in the box gave Northern Storm an early lead, I thought we reacted positively after that and kept pushing for a goal.”

The equaliser came at a pivotal time that swung the

momentum.

“Scoring the equaliser late in the first half gave the boys confidence and belief going into the second half.

“Despite constant pressure from Northern Storm we were able to keep our composure and scored two more goals to secure the three points,” said Joe. The result edges the Scorpions ahead of the Storm

into ninth place, which is only two points behind fourth place Port Saints in a congested Coastal Premier League table.

Both teams are on the road this weekend with Sawtell playing Port United on Saturday at 3pm and Northern Storm playing Southern United at the same time.

Orienteering League Season, and second in the Australian 3 Days event in April.

Before he heads to Portugal, Woolford will be competing at the European Junior and Youth Orienteering Championships in Hungary as he prepares for the Junior World Orienteering Championships.

The Australian representative was looking forward to testing his skills on the world stage in

Portugal.

“I’m very excited and it’s going to be very fun, and apparently the terrain is a lot similar to Australia rather than other European countries,” he said.

“I’m hoping it will be similar when I pick up the map.”

The new Australian representative explained what it took to make a top orienteer.

“Someone who can navigate while running at speed, and it’s a sport which takes a lot of practice,” he said.

“I do a lot of running in training, then I look at old maps and sample maps and I do the course in my head and visualise what I think it will look like, “I go for a run with the map to navigate where I’m going.”

Woolford identified the hardest part of his chosen sport.

“Probably the navigation part is the hardest, as a navigator with a map who walks will beat a runner without a map,” he said.

“So I'd say navigating is more difficult.”

SPORTS RESULTS

draw with earlier in the tournament.

All the players are looking forward to having another crack at the title next year.

Special mention must also go to Heather Duncan who was the recipient of the Coach’s Award for the W40s team.

Keeping it in the family, Relle’s son, Tyler Donovan, was part of the Mixed Open team that won 3 of their 8 games in a very competitive division.

This was a gallant effort by the team after losing Tyler to a knee injury in the first game.

The Men’s 50s also featured 3 wellknown players from Coffs Harbour, Dal Phoonie, Kevin Rigney and Brendan Pelligrino.

With very limited training before the tournament, the M50s had to rely on their experience to get them through the games.

Despite losing a player to COVID on the third day of play, their performance got better as the competition continued, and they were able to finish on a high, beating the Sunshine Coast Pineapples 2-1.

Coffs Harbour Touch Association President, Kendall Devine, who was also Team Manager for the Mixed Opens team, said she was “so proud of all the efforts of the players".

"NTLs is one of the toughest Touch tournaments in the world and seeing locals playing at this level says a lot about the talent we have in Coffs Harbour."

She also mentioned the efforts of local referee Jacob Nelson, who refereed 14 games over the 4 days of competition and is currently working towards his level 5 qualification.

BIG FAT QUIZ OF EVERYTHING

SBS, 8.30pm

FRIDAY

KEEPING FAITH

ABC, 9pm

On paper, Keeping Faith revolves around a mother and lawyer in the Welsh countryside. Beginning with a thrilling first season as Faith (Eve Myles) tried to find out where her missing husband had gone, it quickly became apparent that this was a series unafraid to go full throttle. Packed with ambivalence, secrets, moody landscapes and a histrionic soundtrack, tonight it’s back with its third and final season. Eighteen months have passed and Faith is busy juggling motherhood and the biggest case of her career.

The whole world – and everything in it – is ripe for picking in this hilarious pub-style quiz show. This special event only happens annually, with wicked stand-up comedian Jimmy Carr (below) returning as the excellent so-called question master. He is joined by a top-notch panel of comedians competing to see who knows the most about … well, everything. Fans will be rapt to see the comically poker-faced Richard Ayoade (Travel Man) returning, along with baby-faced Rob Beckett, Rosie Jones, Roisin Conaty (GameFace), Mawaan Rizwan and Joanne McNally, to answer questions such as what do Mark Zuckerberg, Adolf Hitler and Wallis Simpson have in common?

SUNDAY

CELEBRITY APPRENTICE AUSTRALIA

NBN, 7pm

A bevy of successful, famous and skilled people compete in this sixth season, premiering tonight.

From Underbelly actor Vince Colosimo, to singer-songwriter Amy Shark, soapie actress Jodi Gordon, world champion swimmer Bronte Campbell, social media sensation Carla from Bankstown and comedian and author Jean Kittson, this season is overflowing with compelling personalities, notwithstanding CEO Lord Alan Sugar (above). But it’s new adviser, businessman Nick Bell, who will also get people talking. With a mega-watt smile, a $274 million-dollar fortune and a penchant for aerial gymnastics in his spare time, the 41-year-old isn’t cut from the same cloth as the rest of us.
