DUBBO NEEDS

SUPER HEROES! What are you doing for Dubbo in 2022?

Fall in

By JOHN RYAN “UP, up and away” may be one of Superman’s most famous lines but it’s not a reality Dubbo wants to see happen in 2022 – we don’t want to see our local businesses fly up, up and away.

The nightly news bulletins and front pages of the metro papers rely on scaring people to generate clicks on social media pages and the Covid-19 pandemic, which has seen millions of taxpayer dollars flow to corporate media organisations, has been a boon when it comes to alarming

people on a daily, even hourly, basis.

The constant, blanket coverage of so much bad news has rattled people so much they’re not leaving their homes and spending their money locally – that’s what local businesspeople have been telling Dubbo Photo News loud and clear.

We’re not calling for people to engage in unsafe behaviour.

We’re not asking people to flout the rules.

We’re not demanding people put themselves, and others, at risk.

All we’re asking is that people buy local.

That people consciously make the decision not to shop online, if possible.

Follow the Covid-safe rules, but eat out once a month if you can afford it.

We’d like people to look at their spending habits and work out how a larger percentage of that weekly budget can be spent in and around Dubbo.

If every resident in the local government area changes just one online purchase into a local “buy” every month, that could

mean up to 50,000 extra spends in this area.

Multiply that by 12 months and it’s 600,000 extra purchases where that much-needed cash stays in town.

Cash that supports local businesses, that helps keep local residents employed, that allows local businesses to support local sporting teams and charities.

We’re not asking much, but what we are asking is critically important.

Be a superhero for Dubbo.

You, collectively, can be that difference.

Dubbo Photo News February 3-9, 2022

WE DON’T WANT A DYSTOPIAN FUTURE Dubbo is a dynamic city and despite three years of drought and two years of a global pandemic, by most measures the city is doing well.

What we don’t want is a future where this photoshopped image of the Macquarie Street CBD becomes a reality – a town where local retailers are forced to close because of the juggernaut of online shopping diverts money away from our local stores.

Shop local, buy local, support local – and the future will be bright.

One for all - and all for one

By JOHN RYAN FOR most people it’s been a tough couple of years and while Omicron does its nefarious dance through the nation, confidence in some areas has dipped and that’s created many unintended, and unseen, consequences.

Take Dubbo Photo News as a case in point: unlike most large, non-local media organisations, we haven’t received much in the way of government hand-outs, although corporate media has benefitted by the millions.

We’re incredibly grateful for our many loyal advertisers who have stuck by us, but in a two-speed economy of haves and have-nots, the lockdowns, restrictions and targeted government subsidies have created problems.

Some sectors have seen massive cash injections and they’re flying higher than ever before – so they tell us they can’t afford to advertise, not because they can’t afford the financial cost of that advertising, but rather because they can’t

service all their current clients, so the last thing they need is even more business.

Other sectors, such as hospitality, have sustained such massive financial losses that they simply cannot afford to take out advertisements.

So for us, an independent locally-owned publisher, that’s a double-whammy – the people who can afford to advertise don’t want to, and those who desperately need to, can’t afford it.

That’s just one of the complexities facing us as an independent local business and Dubbo is full of similar stories.

So we’ve decided to do something about it, on a number of fronts.

Dubbo’s Citizen of the Year for 2022 and Order of Australia Medal (OAM) recipient Matt Hansen has built up a successful real estate business in the spare time he has between his community volunteering ventures, and he’s the first to join our campaign urging locals who are doing to well, to

pay it forward.

He’s taken out a full page advertisement in this week’s Dubbo Photo News, not to promote his own business, but to advertise a number of local retailers who are doing it tough.

Dubbo Chamber of Commerce chose the businesses to go onto that full page advertisement and newly elected president Errin Williamson said it was an amazing and humbling gesture from Mr Hansen.

“I think that’s just so generous.

I think it really shows that Dubbo support and spirit of community that we know we have here and I think someone who’s doing well supporting other people is just what you want to see in your town,” she said, noting that it’s an incredible morale-booster for those retailers who are doing it so tough.

“When you’re at that point where you’re struggling, advertising your business just seems like money you can’t spare, you need that money for wages, you

need that money to pay your suppliers. I think this will be something that will lighten the load for them, not having to worry where they’re going to find advertising dollars.

“But it’s also going to bring that feeling of support to them. It’s really going to uplift them when it comes to their mental state as well.”

Chamber member and Dubbo Turf Supplies managing director Alex White knows just how difficult it is to keep going day after day when the future looks bleak, especially when many other local businesses are doing well.

He said his turf business was in grave danger of going under during the recent extended drought.

“The drought was mentally draining as it was hard to find motivation when things were so bleak. We really had to review all our expenditures and become as efficient as possible as well as looking for other opportunities in order to survive,’ Mr White told Dubbo Photo News.

“We were facing a bleak future with no support so we had to make some tough calls in order to survive. I guess we were lucky in that respect as other businesses failed, we can certainly empathise with businesses affected by Covid.”

He says Matt Hansen’s practical financial support for struggling businesses is fantastic on so many levels.

“This is a great initiative. By working together we can help each other through these tough times. Every business is important and the loss of one can lead to many more through the flowon effect.”

For his part, Matt Hansen says he likes to think other local businesses will be there to support their mates during difficult times.

“We’ve had a very successful year and I think when you’re in that position, it’s great to be able to give back,” he said.

“So many local people have helped me along the way. That’s what community is all about.”

Med students heed push for the bush

By TIJANA BIRDJAN MEDICAL students will no longer be required to move to metropolitan areas to commence their studies with the University of Sydney welcomed its first cohort of medical students studying a full fouryear Doctor of Medicine (MD) in Dubbo.

Medical students who are participating in the Dubbo MD stream will be provided with the same curriculum taught on the main campus with added benefits of getting more hands-on rural experience.

Professor and Dubbo resident Mark Arnold assured the program is accredited by the Australian Medical Council with many professors teaching between Dubbo and Sydney campuses.

“This is not a first attempt in teaching the course,” Mark said of the program which features an approved team with an approved curriculum that will continually develop.

According to Mark, a work and life balance is essential, and Dubbo is a terrific place to do that.

By delivering the program locally “people can achieve great outcomes with minimal sacrifices” he said.

He is passionate about encouraging students to work in the bush, and believes “the program improves outcomes with regional doctors, and we hope to see many of them staying and developing their careers in Dubbo”.

“We know this is a solid and tangible step with accredited training to provide students at-

tachment to the community,” he said, adding that there are workforce shortages across regional Australia with doctors concentrating in metropolitan areas.

The School of Rural Health in Dubbo has undergone a $7m expansion with new building facilities which feature lasted medical technology including 3D modelling and virtual and augmented reality.

According to Mark initiation of the program commenced in 2012 with major support from local health districts, hospitals and allied health.

“This has been a long-term objective that has the confidence, support and enthusiasm to succeed,” he said.

“The Dubbo hospital is a great facility to enable a long and healthy

career once students graduate.

“The course has implemented innovation techniques already which has been carried to the metropolitan campus.”

Mark recognises that medicine is a stressful course, but is confident the students will be the kind of doctors people would want to go to.

“From the feedback we have received so far the program is running very smoothly,” he said.

Born and bred in Dubbo, William Anderson said he is looking forward to being able to stay in town where he has family, a lot of friends and a house.

“It was a great chance to work in a hospital and get to know everyone personally throughout the years and build more secure relationships.

“This provides a great oppor-

tunity to learn in a successful hospital,” said William who believes there are many challenges to getting doctors into rural and remote regions, especially when they study in metropolitan areas.

By having a program based in Dubbo, William said “there are many benefits with studying regionally and the chances of people staying in their own communities and giving back are much higher”.

“Students get a chance to genuinely develop their careers and find their strengths working regionally as there is a lot more to do so there is always something to learn.”

All the students in the first cohort have lived in rural Australia including multiple students in the Central West and Western NSW regions.

Saving Dubbo is easy – shop local!

By JOHN RYAN ERRIN Williamson has only recently taken on the job as president of the Dubbo Chamber of Commerce and it’s a tough task.

As the city, and region, enters the third year of a global pandemic, local food outlets and retailers are suffering, yet the state and federal government support isn’t there in the same volume as it has been in previous years.

She says locals need to shop local, and that by everyone doing that one little thing, it will have such a positive financial impact and boost business morale into the bargain.

“Shop local. Don’t be spending money on the internet when local businesses are struggling. If everyone just does a little bit, it could create an economic boom in our city and it’s one thing that everyone in town can do quite easily,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“Many smaller retailers often don’t have that online presence so they are literally relying on people for walk-by trade and a lot of main street business have been able to set up phone orders and they’re doing deliveries. They have their staff or themselves doing those deliveries just so they can try to keep up with the major’s online ordering systems.

“Shopping locally is key to making sure we have shops in our main street so we have what we need on local shelves and so that when people come and visit they have a reason to visit our shops and they’re impressed by what we have here so they want to come back.”

Shop local – you’ll be glad you did!

Making waves this summer

By TIJANA BIRDJAN WITH summer holidays coming to an end, children and students are being encouraged to keep their holiday momentum going throughout the first academic term.

Dubbo Regional Council’s Aquatic Centres in Dubbo and Wellington have partnered with the NSW Office of Sport in a new youth pilot program, the Active Pools Youth Program, which is targeted towards 12–16-yearolds who strive to keep active approaching the school year.

Aquatic Centres manager Clare Fisher said this program provides teenagers with the opportunity to interact with new people and participate in a range of free land and water-based activities.

“We aim to promote an active lifestyle, increase social interactions with youth of the same age while supporting our local facilities,” Clare said.

Both facilities have been supplied with sporting equipment and program plans for each one hour session, held twice a week over an eight-week period.

Clare said the program involves of a range of sporting activities including soccer, volleyball and cricket, and suggested teenagers can benefit from the program immensely by improving their teamwork and relationship building.

“We want to reassure people that it is not necessarily about sporting capabilities,” Clare said,

Hole lot of roos DUBBO Golf Course doubles as a sanctuary for native wildlife and it’s not uncommon to see large groups of kangaroos gently grazing its manicured fairways.

This mob (above) was bemused when they had their photo taken, but so used to humans wandering by that they merely looked up and kept eating. explaining that she and her team want to see young people implementing an active approach in their daily lifestyle.

“The program is about having fun with friends in an environment that is not necessarily structured.”

Clare said she wants the teenagers to feel comfortable approaching lifeguards when necessary.

“The lifeguards we have for both facilities are extremely friendly, and we want youth to build strong relationships with our team.”

Knowing this is a pilot program, Clare and the rest of her team said they are extremely ex-

cited for the opportunity and will be implementing the feedback received in next year’s program.

“We want to know what the participants enjoy or want to do differently so we can cater it more towards our community.

“Our lifeguards are stoked for the program, and this will also teach them how to facilitate community events around the area.”

Being young and energetic, Clare explained that they will be supportive and understanding of teenagers a few years their junior.

Registration for the program is free and participants will also receive a free three-month pool pass for recreational use.

People are encouraged to register for the program at the Wellington facility to expand their community.

Mayor of the Dubbo region, Mathew Dickerson, said the program has many benefits to the individuals who take part and for the centres themselves.

“It provides the opportunity for youth who may not normally have access to our pools for a variety of reasons,” he continued, saying he has hopes that the pilot program will generate success for the future years to come.

A Devil of a time

By JOHN RYAN SPARE a thought for hospitality businesses.

Not only are frontline staff having to bear the brunt of customer angst in these uncertain times, but venue owners have seen overheads skyrocket just as revenues plummet.

Take Devil’s Hollow, a brand new brewery that set up shop just in time for the Coronavirus pandemic to sweep the globe.

Customer experience manager and co-owner Ceridwyn Usback said it’s been a devil of an experience.

“We are having a crack,” she told Dubbo Photo News, explaining they’ve put on extra

staff on to monitor rules, clean and enforce current restrictions including QR code on arrival.

“We’re purchasing additional sanitation and cleaning products, there’s venue rearranging to accommodate social distancing between tables and patrons and we’re continually updating venue signage to show rules.

“On top of that, there’s mask supplying and wearing and also training for staff on Covid-safe practices.”

Co-owner Melissa Knaggs said it’s a tough business climate.

“We still operate our business as we normally would with music, events, weekly

activities, brewing, canning, seasonal menu changes and so on,” she said, concerned that headlines on TV news bulletins, newspapers and across social media are scaring people from living lives that can be close to normal as long a safe practices are maintained.

“The media needs to encourage people to live their lives,” she said.

“Businesses are facing an uphill battle without customers coming to the venues. It’s unsustainable to fund the additional Covid-related costs plus normal overheads of running a business.

“Support us Dubbo! We need you.”

Local businesses compassionate for connectivity SOME businesses have thrived, others have barely survived after the misfortunate years the Dubbo community has experienced due to COVID following the unprecedented drought.

On Friday morning, some of the city’s business leaders and owners met on Macquarie Street to stand together to implement ideas to get through these trying times.

The Sand Goanna owner Kevin Saul says his cafe has been struggling for over two years due to the pandemic.

“The cafes in town get along very well with one another and it’s important to help each other wherever we can.”

He says people have choice when they visit the precinct with multiple coffee shops on the street, a variety that is important because more businesses are welcomed into the town.

SJ Shooter Real Estate managing director Laura Shooter says this year is the year of connection.

“People have really been struggling over the past few years, but I think businesses are working together to implement ways we can all overcome this challenging time,” Laura says.

She explains that her business is doing well, but she understands the difficulty of buying a house and looking for a rental property as the housing crisis deepens.

“The shortage is definitely im-

pacting a lot of people within our community.”

Health Boost owner Gargi Ganguly says her business is succeeding through the pandemic thanks to strategising to reach a broader network.

“We’ve definitely had our challenges as customers are trying to be more cautious,” she continues, but says the business has a website from which customers are able to purchase their products.

Health Boost has recently enlisted partnerships with other natural health practitioners to offer telehealth services, and Gargi says this helps as customers do not need to visit for consultations.

Throughout the conversation with Dubbo Photo News, business owners were bouncing ideas off one another on how best to support the Dubbo community.

Trike Adventures owner Peter Judd said it is important for businesses to work together and invest in one another to succeed as a town.

“When people select our high tea offering, we use local suppliers for our products as we want to give back as much as we can,” Peter says.

Having owned three businesses over 12 years, Peter says it is vital to work together.

Street with me on the lifted backseat of the trike, Peter explained the monuments and hidden gems of the town.

“Orana Day Tours is a similar experience only targeted to a more luxury market,” he continues saying the vehicles are SUVs and they offer high tea and picnics to not only Dubbo, but the surrounding region.

“It’s a great way to see our town from a lifted point of view while having fun at the same time.”

With no roof to keep my hair in place, I knew this was a unique experience for any tourist or Dubbo local.

With lack of tourism and international travel, international speaker and author Kerrie Phipps says the period has been transitional and businesses have had to sacrifice immensely.

Laura Shooter from SJ Shooter Real Estate.

“I went from going overseas once a month to not going anywhere at all,” Kerrie says, explaining the challenges of speaking to a virtual audience which she says “is just not the same”.

“I love gathering people, pulling out individual stories and inspiring people that they make a bigger difference than they realise,” says Kerrie, who would love the opportunity to do that in person again.

She believes that throughout the two-year period of Covid disruption, people have not lost their kindness towards one another in our community and that it is important to acknowledge.

Small and local businesses are working together to make this the year of connectivity by getting back out and exploring the community.

Author and speaker, Kerrie Phipps.

Dubbo’s developing doctors DUBBO will have a surge of interns and junior doctors during the placement season, with many starting work in hospitals and general practices around town.

President of the Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA), Dr Megan Belot said rural rotations provide beneficial experience in training junior doctors.

“It’s also an opportunity for many city based junior doctors to put their hand up and do a short term rural placement and see for themselves the variety in the clinical caseload as well as the broad range of training and career opportunities that exist in rural and remote settings.”

Ms Belot is encouraging the junior doctors on placement to embrace the experience and draw as much from it as possible, she says that the doctors “have been going through their training at the most difficult time, dealing with the challenges of a pandemic”.

Junior doctors developing their studies in Dubbo are given the opportunity to grow and make a different to their patients.

Metropolitan doctors are provided the chance to immerse themselves within the Dubbo community and experience the enhancement of rural medicine.

Oh, what a pay-it-forward feeling

By JOHN RYAN

IT’S been a big week for Dubbo City Toyota on two counts: paying-it-forward and moving forward.

Firstly, the paying-it-forward: The company has long been a supporter of Macquarie Home Stay and when the dealership’s December Guest Survey Winner wanted to pay-it-forward, Macquarie Homestay got the nod.

Vicki Wolstenholme is the company’s Guest Experience Manager and said survey winner “Clint”, was adamant that he donate his winning $250 voucher to a good cause.

“After discussion within the team, the dealership decided to pass this generosity on to Macquarie Homestay,” she said.

“To complement this pay-it-forward gesture from Clint, Dubbo City Toyota and Gilgandra Toyota matched the $250.00 donation.”

Macquarie Homestay was created by locals who recognised a need for affordable, quality housing for individuals and families across Central and Western New South Wales when travelling to Dubbo Hospital for treatment. It provides comfort and stability to those needing to travel for regular hospital visits, emergencies, and everything in between.

Until Monday, David Hayes has been the long-time Dealer Principal of Dubbo City Toyota and Gilgandra Toyota and a stalwart when it comes to supporting the broader community across many charitable organisations.

He’s cycled plenty of kilometres raising money for Macquarie Homestay and he’ll once again put his butt and legs on the line in March when he cycles 1146 kilometres as part of Toyota Tour de OROC, raising funds for Stage 2 of Macquarie Home Stay, pointing out the current demand for these accommodation services shows how vital the facility is.

“Macquarie Homestay is currently operating at capacity, turning away our neighbours on many nights, illustrating the necessity for such a service,” Mr Hayes told Dubbo Photo News.

My Hayes is taking a backseat role in the business, with Ben Thompson appointed as Dealer Principal on January 31 and he says he’s not only not leaving the business, he’s leaving his 24/7 hands-on role in very good, com-

DUBBO Regional Council advises local residents arborists will be on site at Cameron Park and Pioneer Ovals in Wellington undertaking tree removal.

There will be four trees removed in preparation for the instalment of a pedestrian bridge connecting Cameron Park and Pioneer Ovals.

The tree removal and pruning will not disrupt park visitors.

The community is encouraged to remain distant of the work zone for further safety precautions.

munity-minded, hands.

“Dubbo City Toyota and Gilgandra Toyota is a company that considers people to be our greatest asset and succession planning is and has been extremely important to our business,” Mr Hayes said.

“Ben has been an integral part of the team for more than 12 years and General Manager for the past five and a half years.

“His commitment to the business, focus on delivering excellence at every interaction and resulting successes, meant that he was a natural choice for the role in my succession plan.”

Mr Thompson said he’s excited at the new challenge and assures clients can still expect to be taken care of with the kind of passion and expert knowledge that they have come to know at the

dealership.

“We are committed to our guests and the service we provide them, we are committed to our staff, their career and ongoing training,” he said.

“It’s what has gained us recognition as a first-class dealership and one of NSW’s most successful dealers within its network.

“It is these core values and our workplace culture that will ensure the continued success of the dealership.”

Coach ‘em if you can

By JOHN RYAN IN the weeks before the world understood Covid-19 was a drama, Langley’s Coaches was flying high, a real local success story from very humble beginnings which had just bought the coach business on Norfolk Island.

With a staff of 70 people running a business where passengers, many elderly, sit in close proximity, the lockdowns and restrictions hit early, and hard. And that downturn has been ongoing according to company founder Phil Langley.

“We have taken a bit of a beating

in certain parts of our company with up to 90 per cent reduction in business with other parts (school buses) almost not affected,” Mr langley told Dubbo Photo News.

“We have been able to retain almost all of our staff in both locations as we feel we must support local communities.

“Some of the local product we us are: computers, phone systems, stationery, fuel and lubricants, tyres, paints and panel beaters, spare parts, local builders and contractors and much more.

He says the company is hoping

to see a return of confidence in the industry, with people across the nation jumping on coaches to explore this vast and beautiful island nation, creating a domestic tourism boom to pump much-needed dollars into hard hit communities, especially in regional areas.

“We would appeal to you to support local if you can and book on a tour to somewhere in Australia and Norfolk Island,” Mr Langley said, appreciative that many other local businesses have stuck by his family business.

“We do appreciate local travel agents and organizations as well as

local individuals supporting us giving us a clear vision to the future in touring Australia.

“When booking with Langley’s you will be given the VIP treatment as normal from our friendly staff, and some of our touring vehicle are classed as probably the Ultimate in Touring vehicles in Australia – all manufactured in Australia.

Langley’s is facing up to the current challenges head on, looking to employ more staff such as heavy vehicle mechanics along with bus and coach drivers – a local company supporting locals.

Students fly high with rocketing results

By TIJANA BIRDJAN DUBBO College Senior Campus celebrated the success of its 2021 HSC students by hosting a morning tea on Friday.

Reuniting for the final time in a school atmosphere, students shared memories and challenges throughout the academic year.

HSC student Hannah Barker said the year was incredibly challenging, however, during the two years of disadvantages the cohort never stopped striving for greatness.

Throughout the implications of COVID, students ensured there were benefits to the upheaval, because it provided more security and stronger relationships in learning environments.

Madeleine Mann said the year brought great support and assisted in tutoring and face to face learning opportunities.

“I’m very proud of our year level as we all worked very hard to achieve the results we wanted,” Madeleine shared.

Students shared their plans for the upcoming year with many progressing their education, securing full-time positions in trades or other industries and spending a year with friends and family.

The teachers congratulated the students for their results by acknowledging the hardships of online studies.

Humanities and geography head teacher Kimberley Campbell said the year was difficult to start, but the students were resilient despite the challenges.

“The cohort rose to every chal-

lenge thrown at them and remained positive throughout the difficult year,” she continued.

Despite the circumstances throughout the year, students and staff were able to adapt and monitor innovative ways to keep motivated.

English teacher Brad Garland said the cohort demonstrated strength by adjusting to continuous change with smiles on their faces.

Dubbo College Senior Campus celebrated a record breaking number of Indigenous students to

graduate in NSW. Head science teacher James Eddy said he is extremely proud of the school for bridging the gap for First Nations people.

“The collective morale lifts so highly when we have that enormous graduation at the end of the year and as Indigenous students feature so prominently,” James said.

The staff reflected upon and shared the experiences that brought them closer.

Year 12 advisor Yu Su said the

isolated year made students appreciate face-to-face learning more.

“As a professional it was a rewarding year in terms of gaining new experiences,” Yu continued.

“They were forced into challenges like no other group before them but succeeded it with nothing less than a smile.

“I am incredibly proud to be part of this school community,” Yu said, sharing that the passion stemmed between each colleague for the genuine care and wellbeing of the community.

This colossal hairball, named Hoss, was created by Steve Warden from the USA. Hoss weighs a hefty 102.12kg and holds the Guinness World Record for the largest ball of human hair. Its weight is equivalent to 300 cans of soup or 15 bowling balls! The record has also featured in the “Ripley’s Believe It or Not!” book. Hair stylist Steve owns and operates a salon in Cambridge, Ohio, and was inspired by his son to create Hoss. “I got more spiritual as I’ve aged and I wanted to leave some kind of legacy when I’m gone, and it hit me. I’m going to build a giant hairball,” he said. Steve set to work and transformed part of his salon into a hairball studio. After collecting hair for a while, it was finally time for Steve to mould it using several different types of glue from his local hardware store.

The shows must go on – and the people must show up

EVENTS have been one of the sectors hardest hit by social distancing requirement and lockdowns but venues such as Dubbo Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) want locals to know there are plenty of measures in place to keep patrons safe.

DRTCC manager Linda Christof told Dubbo Photo News that if event plans change at the last minute, prospective show-goers are protected.

“We want to reassure patrons to continue to enjoy live performance by booking tickets. If, for some reason there is a date change, they will receive an automatic exchange to the new date, a gift certificate or a full refund so there is flexibility and choice,” Ms Christof said.

DRTCC can safely present shows complying with the current Public Health Order and should these change, the facility

will adapt and follow accordingly – that’s been amply demonstrated by presenting two successful shows this past week – Club Soda, a cabaret in the Convention Centre and Hotel California, The Eagles Experience in the Theatre.

“For our January and February shows we are also providing patrons the option to spread out in the theatre once they present their ticket to the usher, and

patron feedback has been really positive,” she said.

“Supporting our shows really does have an economic multiplier effect for other businesses. For example, a family of five travelled from Warren to attend Club Soda and stayed the night, bought their outfits whilst here and went out to dinner before the show.”

The theatre is a fantastic local asset and there’s no shortage

of events to attend across the region ranging from live music, live theatre, exhibitions, markets and food and wine events.

Dubbo Photo News is urging locals to support the sector that has been one of the hardest hit by the pandemic and find an event to suit you – the one stop shop to find all of these events are at dubbo.com.au/events.

Greens face pushback from farmers on dam fears

By STEPH ALLEN NSW Farmers president James Jackson says regulatory hurdles have long prevented dams from being considered across Australia, despite visions to grow the country’s population.

With Greens party objections to the construction of new infrastructure, the state farming body has raised concerns about the future of the state’s water needs, particularly in rural and remote areas.

“It’s a fascinating dilemma.

We’re looking at the raising of the Wyangala Dam wall, and it’s looking like it’s paralysed,” Mr Jackson said.

“NSW Farmers do support engineers’ role in sorting out water solutions especially west of the mountains.

“Dams aren’t the entire solution; there’s other smart things to do about water efficiency and making sure water is used in the appropriate way, but building dams is one of them.

“I’ve heard Barnaby Joyce say there hasn’t been any dams built in 30 years, but there’s been a huge number of private dams built.

“That flood plain harvesting thing has the only people who’ve got any get up and go. There are irrigators and they’re putting up turkey nests along the flood plains at inland NSW.” Mr Jackson said the region’s dams are currently full or spilling over, except Cudgegong’s Windamere Dam, which is not quite at capacity.

Regional NSW house prices continue to boom

In response to Greens hesitance, Mr Jackson said the party was “terrified of building new dams” yet comfortable with releases from dams for environmental purposes.

“The rationale for the Greens is ideological, and not based on any rational analysis of the risks,” he said.

“They’re all over the shop.

They’re also very keen on renewable energy and one of the ways to ensure we’ve got expendable energy in a coal-free arrangement is hydroelectricity filling those gaps,” he said, highlighting another reason in favour of dams.

“A lot of the environmental im-

pacts are manageable – we have fish ramps now so we can have migrating fish wrap around the edge of the dam, and we can look at vegetation offsets.

“There’s mechanisms now to offset the negative sides of environmental impacts.”

Mr Jackson said new Premier Dominic Perrottet had “been fairly negative on dams”, but to develop regional NSW, reliable water supply for human habitation was required.

“Collectively, NSW Farmers supports dam infrastructure but there are still different views (within the body). Some have thought the money would be bet-

ter spent on retention services,” he said.

A current $700 million proposal to increase the Wyangala Dam wall height by 10 metres is due to flood mitigation.

“Potentially millions of dollars of damage could be done (by flooding) because of houses on the river,” he said.

“There’s (also the need for) securing water supply for environmental purposes... and for domestic purposes downstream.

“We want regional areas to expand and they need water supply plus irrigated water on top of that (to do so),” Mr Jackson said.

great

THE housing market has continued to boom, with prices in regional NSW now overtaking Sydney rates as more and more city-dwellers choose to escape the metropolitan mania for peaceful country life.

While the Snowy Monaro Regional Council area recorded the largest annual price jump in regional NSW of 50.8 per cent, new Domain report figures show that Orange and Dubbo have also seen increases of at least 24.5 per cent.

According to the new data, the average price of a home in Dubbo was $460,500 as of December 2021 – up 24.5 per cent from December 2020’s figure of $370,000.

Over the last five years, Dubbo’s average market price jumped 29.7 per cent from 2016’s figure of $355,000.

The average price of a home in Orange was $651,000 as of December 2021 – up 31.5 per cent from December 2020’s average of $495,000. The town also recorded an 86 per cent jump from December 2016’s median price of $350,000.

The Department of Planning and Environment has released a 20year housing strategy, called Housing 2041, which includes an initial two-year action plan to improve housing outcomes, improve data collection, to set up a Government Property Index to attract housing provider interest, to establish an expert advisory panel and to look “at novel ways of facilitating temporary accommodation for people experiencing homelessness”.

Local shopping saves towns

By JOHN RYAN UNCERTAINTY is a major concern for so many Dubbo residents according to Orana Mall centre manager James Wall, who believes the concerns around Covid-19 are so pervasive through the media and internet that many people are staying at home and shopping online.

His message is simple: we need to support our local businesspeople who have poured their money into supplying goods and services.

“People just need to shop local. The retail industry is struggling, hospitality is struggling.

We have tenants in here

doing it tough, a lot of them “mum and dad” operators,” Mr Wall told Dubbo Photo News.

“Just buy local, shop locally, shop at a place you know and you’ll be helping local people. We need to support Dubbo (and) the surrounding areas.

“Money spent in town stays in town. Always help the people who help the town.”

He says many local food outlets now have delivery options either off their own bat or via a third-part delivery service, and is urging residents who can afford it, to help out Dubbo’s food providers in such a time of need.

WHAT KIDS SAY

Rural kids more at risk of social media harm

An Australian expert in cyber safety and young people says rural kids could be at greater risk of harm from social media, compared to their city counterparts.

By STEPH ALLEN

Everett Stonestreet Age? (shrugs) Favourite colour? Yellow Who is your best friend? Nay Nay What makes you laugh? Daddy What is your favourite fruit? Fruit!

IN an age of TikTok, Instagram and Snapchat, more and more children are growing up disconnected from their peers and hooked into a virtual world that is causing more harm than good. The Covid lockdowns have made the problem worse as people spend more time online.

Australia’s foremost expert in cyber safety and young people, “Cyber Cop” Susan McLean, author of Sexts, Texts and Selfies, said social media has “totally changed” the landscape in which children are growing up, and despite the numerous positives

to the advanced technology, there are plenty of negatives parents should be aware of.

“For many children, they are victims of cyberbullying and grooming and this can be devastating,” Ms McLean said.

“Far too many parents have NO idea about the reality of the risk and do not do enough to keep children safe online.

“During Covid, children are online more than ever before and in many cases they are unsupervised.

“We have seen a marked increase in all online issues during periods of lockdown and remote learning. Predators in particular have found the

pandemic helpful for them to find their next victim.”

While the impact on children is across the board, rural children can be at even greater risk.

“The impact on rural children can be greater as there is a level of disbelief that this would happen and this is really wrong,” Ms McLean said.

“Rural kids are often more trusting as well.

“Once harmed, the help available such as psychology is often more limited and harder to get, making the negative impacts worse.

“Parents must understand that geographic location is no barrier when the internet

is used.”

As most social media sites have a legal minimum age of 13 years, parents are urged to be aware that young children are not legally permitted to access most platforms.

“Saying no to your child who wants to lie about their age is the correct thing to do,” Ms McLean said.

“Do not allow your child to be in a known place of risk any time before they need to be there.

“Educate yourself and be an active participant in your child’s online world,” she urged.

COMMUNITY COMES TOGETHER

PHOTO: SUPPLIED

By JOHN RYAN THERE’S little that would create more anguish than to be living in one nation when your family and friends live on tiny Pacific islands that have been smothered by a massive volcanic eruption then swept over by a tsunami, but that’s been the case for Dubbo’s 100-strong Tongan community since the January 15 eruption.

Tongan elder and Dubbo community leader Bruno Efoti said it

was difficult when most communications had been cut with the island kingdom, the underwater cable severed and planes unable to land or even overfly islands because of the volcanic dust in the air.

“As a result of the volcanic eruption, there’s a very thick layer of ash on the ground which can create long-term respiratory issues and has also contaminated water source,” Mr Efoti said.

“It’s very concerning when we

can’t get in touch to find out if our families are safe and well,” he said, but he’s thankful more news is filtering through as time goes on.

He called a Gathering of the local Tongan community at the Tradies in Sight shed on January 20 to pray, draw strength and offer support to each other in the wake of the heartbreaking ordeal, although even that was complicated as so many people were isolating after contracting Covid-19 or being close contacts and couldn’t attend.

“It’s how we work through these things, as a community,” he said.

“We support each other and we know we’re there for each other.”

“We are looking to hold a fundraiser in the coming days to potentially help out with water and food shortages and subsequently village rebuild.

“Thank you to all that has sent messages of love and support, it means so much to us.

“Malo ‘aupito and ‘Ofa atu.”

Job boom signals a push for the bush

By STEPH ALLEN AS career-weary Australians ditch their jobs in favour of new ventures, the Central West and Dubbo regions could be just the ticket for those wishing to escape the hustle of city life – with 64,000 new jobs expected to be created in the region over the next four years.

A Central West Region Local Jobs and Skills Taskforce spokeswoman said many employers are scrambling to fill the large number of available positions currently on offer.

“There hasn’t been a change

since the beginning of Covid,” the spokeswoman said.

“The biggest issue across the region is there’s not enough people to be employed in the roles available.

“The latest...employment rate for Australia is 75.9 per cent and 4.6 per cent unemployed as of November. The youth unemployment rate (16-24 years) Australia wide is 10.9 per cent.

“The Central West, which covered Orange but not Dubbo, in comparison has 79.2 per cent employment, 2.4 per cent unemployment, and 5.2 per cent youth

unemployment.”

The most prominent Central West industries desperately seeking workers include the care sector, hospitality, retail, tourism, manufacturing and general labour.

“Jobs being advertised are having to be re-advertised because not the right people are applying or the people who are applying get another job and drop out of others,” the spokeswoman said.

“What we’d like to see is people moving to the Central West and helping employers.

“Over the next four-year period,

there will be an exceptional number of projects that are going to grow the employment capacity...

64,000 jobs over the next four years.”

Some of the projects expected to provide jobs include the Parkes Special Activation Precinct project for Inland Rail, the Regis Resources McPhillamys Gold Project, mine growth across the region, and many “manufacturing opportunities like a small arms factory”.

“I don’t know if we’ll have the capacity to fill (all the positions),” she said.

ARIES: You’ll expand your social circle and spend way too much time on social media. Your efforts and talents will be shared by word of mouth and recognised by your peers.

TAURUS: You’ll get the green light to finance a long-awaited project. This is also an excellent week to settle some of your debt and ease your financial burdens.

GEMINI: A lot is going on in every aspect of your life. You have many accomplishments to be proud of. You’ll do anything it takes to ensure work goes smoothly.

CANCER: A little rest and relaxation are in order. Take the time you need to unwind. A family member will need you by their side. If you’re an artist, you’ll be overcome with inspiration.

LEO: You’ll organise a large project that brings people together. Even if it’s not always easy to get answers from everyone involved, you’ll do what it takes to get results.

VIRGO: You have a lot of responsibilities at home and at work. However, your continued efforts may be rewarded with a promotion and a raise.

LIBRA: You’re toying with the idea of taking a pilgrimage. The adventure will require several months of preparation.

However, it’s likely to bring deep meaning to your life.

SCORPIO: You’re experiencing a lot of different emotions. You must be true to yourself in your love life. You’ll no longer accept half-measures, and you need to reflect deeply on your relationship.

SAGITTARIUS: Although you’re under a lot of stress at work, you’re a great team player. This skill will take you far.

If you’re in a budding relationship, commitment issues may come up.

CAPRICORN: Your career is taking off and you’ll reap the benefits.

Nevertheless, as things amp up, you’ll have to put in twice the effort. The extra work now will ensure a more stable income in the future.

AQUARIUS: Your self-esteem could use a boost. You’re dedicated to helping others, but you must give yourself the same attention, especially if those you help aren’t always grateful.

PISCES: You’ll spend a lot of time with your family. It may be a good idea to consider moving or changing your living environment in the near future.

The luckiest signs this week: Cancer, Leo and Virgo.

Water security boost with new projects floated

By STEPH ALLEN THREE new Water Infrastructure NSW projects are expected to strengthen the region’s long-term water security, with one project set to replace the 120-year-old Gin Gin Weir near Trangie.

Final business cases for the major proposals, also including a new pipeline between Lake Rowlands Dam to Carcoar Dam, and the raising of Wyangala Dam Wall, are expected to be delivered by the end of 2022.

One of the options being considered to improve the current Gin Gin Weir, which restricts native fish species from moving along the river, is the potential to hold an extra 6GL and increase water availability by up to 17GL a year in the Macquarie.

“The NSW Government recognises the need to invest in long-term water security to build the resilience of our regional communities, improve water availability and increase water reliability for businesses,” a department spokesperson said.

“In addition, the Department of Planning and Environment’s Macquarie-Castlereagh Regional Water Strategy is also investigating a range of infrastructure options to deliver reliable, healthy and secure water resources across the region.

“We received more than

Burrendong Dam near Wellington. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY

50 submissions from stakeholders and this feedback is playing an important role in helping to identify the best options that merit further investigation.

“The draft strategy identified over 50 options that could help address future water challenges.

“During consultation several other alternatives were raised, and we are now assessing this detailed list and will carry out a further round of public consultation on a shortlisted set of options later in 2022 before finalising the strategy.”

Some of the infrastructure options around Dubbo, Ba-

thurst and Orange that are being considered include the installation of new pipeline connections between town water supply within the Macquarie-Castlereagh region, near Dubbo and downstream, as well as in the Upper Macquarie near Orange and Bathurst.

“This will improve the access and transfer of water, particularly in emergency situations, and reduce water loss from seepage and evaporation,” the spokesperson said.

A proposal has also been submitted for the construction of a new Ulmurrah Dam near Orange, as well as the development of inno-

vative stormwater harvesting schemes to maximise the re-use of surface water and groundwater for the critical supply of clean water, potable drinking water, and the maintenance of local parks, lakes and green spaces.

Some of the current grant funded projects in the Central West region include the $30 million Dubbo Groundwater Infrastructure project (due for completion by the end of 2022), a $2.2m Coonabarabran Groundwater Pipeline, and Tomingley Water Supply Augmentation at Narromine, which will replace the existing water treatment plant to improve water quality.

RIVER HEALTH

The magic repair bus rides again

OzFish River Repair Bus team leader Ethan Chant. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

By TIJANA BIRDJAN FROM early ages we were told to clean up our rubbish to protect our environment which would ultimately protect us from pollution and diseases, and the River Repair Bus builds on that message by educating us about the importance of native wildlife living within our waterways.

After a six-month hiatus, the not-for-profit OzFish River Repair Bus began operating in January to generate a positive impact towards the community and local environment.

Taking up his position in November last year, team leader Ethan Chant says the role is rewarding as he can see the community’s awareness developing immensely.

Over the past five years the River Repair Bus team has planted more than 7,500 trees and collected more than 400 trailers of rubbish out of the waterways.

“I know what I’m doing is not only beneficial for now, but many years to come,” Ethan says.

He does a lot of the groundwork by removing the weeds from the waterways, cleaning up illegally

dumped rubbish and maintaining trees, and says his passion ignited towards the fishing and environmental industry when he was four years old and caught his first fish.

“Even though it was only a 10cm flathead, I knew from then I wanted to work within the fishing industry because of the thrill it gave me.”

His dream developed in his teenage years when he secured a job with BCF, and Ethan says OzFish is exactly where he wants to be and what he wants to do.

“Every day is different from the last.”

ESSENTIAL SKILLS

How to address being fired from a previous position in a job interview WERE you recently fired?

Are you worried it’ll affect your ability to land a good job? If you have an upcoming interview, here are three tips to ensure you come out on top.

1. Tell the truth Be honest. Lying about the situation could potentially backfire. Be as objective as possible when explaining yourself so you don’t come across as someone who thinks they’re a victim. No matter what the circumstances were, it’s important to be

specific about why you were fired. A vague answer could lead recruiters and managers to believe you’re trying to hide something.

2. Prepare your answer Expect to be asked about why you were fired in your interview. Prepare your answer in advance to prevent yourself from saying something you might regret. Avoid speaking badly about your former employer and don’t feel like you have to explain the situation in great detail.

3. Emphasise what you’ve learned Explain that being fired was a learning experience.

Acknowledge your mistakes, don’t make excuses and emphasise how you’ve improved your knowledge and skills.

This will make you a more attractive candidate to potential employers.

If you need assistance preparing for an interview or want further career tips, look for an employment organisation in your area that can help.

He says the 12-seater bus relies heavily on volunteers to plant trees and assist the community and Dubbo waterways, and continues by explaining that residents can sign up to become members on their website.

Ethan says there are events coming up in the next couple of months such as tree planting days for people to learn new skills.

“Volunteers participating with the River Repair Bus have the opportunity to learn about vegetation replenishment, environmental management and sustainability,” he continues by stating

the bus and volunteer programs are a fantastic way to immerse within the community and support local waterways.

“Everyone from the community can volunteer and it’s so rewarding to see a tree that you’ve planted in a few years maturing,” Ethan says, adding that everything planted has a purpose and provides either food or shade to the native fish.

“By planting resources our native fish can grow and provide a healthier water environment for us all, especially native fish like Murray cod or golden perch.”

Re-wiring the current system

By TIJANA BIRDJAN AS a second-year electrical apprentice at Simtec, Sophie Everingham is challenging a male dominated industry every day in her work.

The 20 year-old says her inspiration for pursuing a career in the electrical industry began from an extremely young age given her dad was an electrician, and she says she grew up in a practical environment.

“I’m the only girl in my TAFE class as well, but I give it my all,” she says, adding that it is the same as any other industry – if you do not know something, ask for help.

Sophie began her apprenticeship last February and says she has learnt a lot on the job and is continually enhancing her knowledge and experience.

“I put in the same work that everyone else does and there were no questions about it when I started working,” she says.

“Everyday is something different so we really get to learn a lot in this industry.”

Sophie explains that even though she has been employed for almost a year she is continuously learning new skills.

“Everyone is so amazing and accepting here, it’s a really great environment to work in.”

Sharing her thoughts on some of her responsibilities such as electrical work and security networks, Sophie’s favourite part of the job is driving the van.

Completing her schooling with a practical oversight, Sophie knew she wanted to ignite her passion into a career.

“During the summer holidays after school I stumbled on this

opportunity and thought “Yeah I could do that” and applied,” Sophie says.

“I knew I wanted to do something practical, so this seemed like the perfect fit for me.

“There is so much variety in the job and it’s so much different to traditional electrical work so I’m loving it here.”

Simtec strives to help the Dubbo community with different security avenues such as connecting networks, national park cameras and fire protection cameras, including in many of Dubbo’s main streets.

“We work with Dubbo Regional Council a lot as well to ensure our community is a priority,” Sophie says.

“There’s heaps of stuff to do and it feels good that I’m a part of keeping things up and running.”

EMERGENCY REPORT

The Dubbo Photo News column dedicated to the hard work of our emergency services personnel.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS

by JOHN RYAN

Missing man JAMES Hunter’s family is worried for his safety and hoping our readers can help.

The 53-year-old was reported missing in July last year – he’s from Newcastle but worked on properties around Dubbo, Mendooran and Dunedoo and also spent time opal mining in Lightning Ridge.

Family members last saw him in person in December 2019 when he was in Newcastle and despite the best efforts of police, they’re unable to get any information on his whereabouts.

Police have established James was last seen at a pharmacy on Macquarie Street in Dubbo on February 28, 2020, and he has not accessed his bank accounts since then.

James is described as being Caucasian in appearance, about 175cm tall, of medium build with brown hair and eyes.

His vehicle – a blue 2005 Toyota Hilux utility with NSW registration DVR-16B – has not been located.

Anyone who has information in relation to James’ whereabouts or of relevance to the investigation is urged to contact Dubbo Police Station on 02 6883 1599 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

If you can help this poor family, please do.

Car Wreck Road I WAS driving down Burrendong Way this week, taking the shortcut to Orange between Wellington and Stuart Town and it reminded me again of how that particular road has caught plenty of unwary motorists in the past.

It’s not a highway, although the speeds at which some people travel looks like they treat it as a freeway without speed cameras.

I took photos of a couple of cars that had come to grief on the road.

I’m not sure of the circumstances which led them to end their days as wrecks on the side of the road, but all these sad vehicles are a timely reminder to drive safety, and drive to the conditions.

James Hunter and his distinctive blue 2005 Toyota Hilux is also missing.

the side of the road on the town’s southern outskirts, in the 60 kilometre an hour zone.

This placement has nothing at all to do with saving lives.

Even during the day it’s not any sort of a black spot. I can only ever remember attending one crash around there in decades of news reporting.

No wonder the speed camera revenues are way, way up.

Aggravated break and enter appeal POLICE need info on a pretty serious crime.

About 4am on January 28, police allege a man armed with a screwdriver forced entry onto a home on Darling Street and threatened a 34-year-old female occupant, demanding cash before leaving in her white Audi SUV. Thankfully the woman was not injured.

Officers commenced an investigation and have now released a description of a man they believe can assist with inquiries.

He’s described as being Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander appearance, aged in his 20s and

about 170cm tall. At the time he was wearing a face mask, a dark T-shirt and trackpants.

About 730am the same morning of the alleged crime the SUV was located in bushland on Maramba Road, Orange and has been sent for forensic examination.

Investigators are urging anyone with information – or dash-cam footage from the area at the time – to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Fired up about new gear FIREFIGHTERS at Dubbo’s 280 Station have received their new Personal Protective Clothing on Friday and within days crews were able to put the new gear straight to work with a kitchen alight in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Firefighters were on scene within minutes of receiving the call, entered the premises and gained fire control.

The house sustained minor fire and smoke damage and it was great to see that a working smoke alarm helped ensure all occupants were alerted and able to self-evacuate.

Coming into the cooler months, everyone needs to ensure they have working smoke alarms in place.

They’ll also be supplied in a wider range of male and female sizes, so all firefighters will have better fitting garments.

“Our firefighters are looking forward to wearing the gear that will provide them with more protection and comfort as they work to protect the irreplaceable,” Commissioner Baxter said.

“They also feature a customised moisture barrier, which helps prevent steam burns and keeps firefighters dry while on the job.

“Current uniforms have served FRNSW firefighters well, but as new technologies and standards emerge, we must ensure that firefighters have the best protection possible.”

As well as the new uniforms, Permanent Crews at 280 have also recently completed Confined Space and Flood Rescue Training and qualifications.

Aged care declaration welcomed

DUBBO’S aged care workers have been under pressure the past two years and it seems there’s no end in sight, however the Health Services Union (HSU) has applauded federal opposition leader Anthony Albanese’s promise to support its case to the Fair Work Commission case for a 25 per cent wage increase for aged care.

HSU National President, Gerard Hayes said such a wage rise would provide a massive boost to the workforce, support attraction and retention of staff and improve quality of care.

“The great unresolved crisis in aged care is wages. Until the government commits to pay aged care workers a decent wage this crisis will only get worse.

“In the short term it will lift the spirits of aged care workers – we’re into our third year of this pandemic and an exhausted aged care workforce who can earn more stacking shelves in a supermarket are barely holding on. “(Prime Minister) Scott Morrison and (Minister for Aged Care) Richard Colbeck have been warned that staff shortages are at catastrophic levels but it seems the cricket takes precedence.”

THE medical industry has advanced rapidly over the past few years, however our source of blood and plasma relies on donations from the community.

New and existing Dubbo blood donors are urged to come off the bench as the Omicron wave sidelines an estimated 100,000 donors.

Australian Red Cross Lifeblood session leader Sharon Parker said the crisis began as the new variant arrived with many people having to cancel their appointments to isolate.

“It’s very difficult for us as the pandemic continues because the need for

blood doesn’t stop,” Sharon explained.

“There are still cancer patients, trauma cases, pregnant women and other vulnerable people who all require donated blood.”

According to Sharon, daily targets have not been met and said “this is not an only Dubbo issue, but a national shortage”.

An estimated 4500 appointments are being cancelled daily across Australia.

Sharon said she encourages people to book in advance, however, the centre is currently welcoming walk-in donors.

“Blood is a thing that will always be vital for our community so we urge people to do the right

thing because it’s a good thing to do and you’re helping other people doing so,” she said.

Lifeblood spokesperson Cath Stone said the population is relying on just 500,000 blood donors across the country.

“Unlike other parts of the world where patients have been unable to get timely blood transfusions, Australia’s blood supply has remained sufficient throughout the pandemic, but we need more blood donations for this to continue,” Cath said.

“Donating blood will only take an hour of your time, and every blood donation can help to save three lives.”

Council in motion with first meeting of new term THE new-look Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) welcomed freshly elected representatives to the chamber for the first time last week for the new term’s inaugural ordinary meeting, with many of the new councillors hitting the ground running.

The proceedings saw nine Notices of Motion put forward including one from Cr Josh Black calling for a report from CEO Murray Wood outlining the history and current status of plans for the development of Regand Park.

Cr Black also called for advice from the CEO as to opportunities for the reinstatement of the Regand Park Master Plan, including proposals for a private development of sporting fields for the area.

Included in the motion, which was unanimously carried, was a call for an update on the progress of master planning for Macquarie River corridor, and council noted the importance of making the public aware of the plans, and of consultation with regard to the proposed uses of this public land.

Council also noted the importance of public awareness and consultation in relation to proposed uses of public land.

In his first motion as a new councillor, Lewis Burns presented a motion for CEO Mr Woods to provide a report on the poten-

tial for DRC to collaborate with other councils, including opportunities for formal partnerships.

This motion too was unanimously carried.

Cr Shibli Chowdhury, a first time councillor and representative of Dubbo’s multicultural community, presented a motion for a report to be prepared to investigate the feasibility of incorporating a multicultural element for either the existing Elizabeth Park, or at another site, which would recognise and celebrate the multicultural diversity of the region.

Cr Chowdhury’s motion included a proposal to review and update the Elizabeth Park Master Plan of 2011 to reflect works since completed and proposed, and a call for the mother language monument for the preservation and protection of all languages. This motion was carried unanimously.

A motion put forward by Cr Vicki Etheridge, the only councillor to be re-elected from the previous cohort, called for the CEO provide a report to next month’s council regarding the progress of the project to beautify the Boundary Road shopping area of South Dubbo.

Cr Etheridge further sought an update on plans and associated costs of similar beautification projects for the shopping strip

clusters of Tamworth, Victoria and Myall Streets, with the motion unanimously carried.

One of Wellington’s newly elected councillors, Jess Gough, proposed a motion for the CEO to provide a report on potential opportunities to lobby the state government to increase Wellington’s police presence, including a 24-hour station.

Cr Gough suggested the report should also address the current policing arrangements and identify concerns raised by the Wellington community, supported by relevant policing statistical evidence including response time and criminal activity, and that council should push for greater allocation of policing resources to the Wellington community to address concerns.

The motion was carried unanimously, as was the notice of motion put forward by Wellington’s other new representative, Cr Richard Ivey, calling for the CEO to arrange a workshop with councillors to review the formation of committees and working parties for the remaining term of this council, including the potential establishment of a Wellington focused consultative body.

The motion included that once the workshop was held, a report be presented to the next available council meeting to adopt the individual terms of reference

and the implementation of those committees and working parties for this term of council.

Council unanimously carried a motion from Cr Damien Mahon calling for the removal of water restriction signage at the approaches to both Dubbo and Wellington. Cr Mahon also called for the development of a communications strategy to effectively promote water smart information to the community.

In another motion that was carried unanimously, Cr Pam Wells called for a report into council’s current playground strategy, and for funding strategies or initiatives proposed ensure a more equitable and accessible spread of playgrounds across the local government area.

Cr Matthew Wright called for council to acknowledge the significance of the continued supply of affordable residential housing in the region and the issues facing the timely supply of housing.

In the motion which was unanimously carried, Cr Wright asked that a report be prepared for council’s April meeting to identify what actions are being taken to address the housing supply in Dubbo, and that a meeting be arranged between councillors and key stakeholders such as the NSW Real Estate Institute and the Builders Group.

Testimonial Fifteen years ago at the age of 60 I became incontinent having had no previous symptoms.It happened suddenly causing huge distress. I took to wearing incontinence panties because I could not control leakage.

I would wake during the night to use the bathroom and because I couldn’t reach the bathroom without leakage I even wore panties in bed.

After 2 sessions on the EMSELLA CHAIR I no longer wear panties at home day or night, sleep through till dawn and easily to the toilet without leakage.

After 3 sessions I was confident enough to not wear panties when visiting friends or restaurants.

After 6 sessions I now feel confident not to wear incontinence panties at all.

OPINION, ANALYSIS, FEATURES, DEPTH.

To Summernats, with love

By JOHN RYAN HUD Johnston loves the fact his dad Rod ran his own race without worrying about what anyone thought, right down to his son’s first name.

“I think dad wanted something unique name-wise, and that worked,” Hud told Dubbo Photo News.

And that simple act of name-giving sets the scene for this story – Hud’s dad Rod didn’t do anything by the numbers.

“He did what he wanted to do.

He didn’t care about what people thought, he was an individual and loved making stuff one-off. He used to say “don’t be the same as everybody else”.”

That individuality brought Rod plenty of acclaim in the Aussie car scene, his one-off builds being recognised across the nation as some of the southern hemisphere’s best hot rods and street machines.

But much of the work Rod did in the past 40 odd years was done with Hud by his side, and no greater gift can a father pass to his son than the passion, and skills, to create automotive works of art from original concepts.

“I learnt everything I know from Dad. He was a qualified panel-beater by trade. He worked in Sydney till 1980 when we moved to Wongarbon and he specialised mainly in doing custom work, two-door conversions, roof chops, all sorts of things like that,” Hud said.

“I’ve been going to the Summernats for 30 years. I had an XL Falcon back when I was 13 and by the time I got my license we had it built and took it to Canberra and from then on we just kept taking different cars over the years.”

Hud’s world was turned upside down six years ago when they were working on Rod’s personal car build.

“Dad had parts of this car, a 1934 Ford Coupe, he got the chas chasamaged and sis in 1982. It was damaged d ended up he repaired that and her parts for getting a cowl and other it over the years and itt lived inside randah. Dad the house on the verandah. was always too busy building cars nce to get his so he never got a chance own done,” he said. d to get onto “We finally decided ng back from Dad’s car after coming d we got two one Summernats and months into it and Dad had a oot of the car heart attack in the boot d ducked out and passed away. I’d as gone two for a toilet break, was im collapsed minutes and found him in the boot.”

Trying to revive his Dad auwas an incredibly traude matic event and made o it difficult even to look at the ’34 Ford, k let alone do any work on it.

Hud said his lifee eventually turned a ng corner after a grieving period. He married Jo, bought his parents’ house and got stuck into renovations, ect before he completing that project could start to ponder future possi-

 Everything on this car, I had to put as much stuff as I could that Dad had physically touched or had planned for it so it’s paying a true tribute to what he had planned, but still put my influence on areas which he hadn’t figured out yet... 

Hud Johnston pulled off a miracle with this '34 Ford Coupe build, and he says it was only possible because of the gifts passed on by his dad, Rod. PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

bilities for the Ford Coupe.

“Then I started to do a little bit on Dad’s car but only to make it my everyday driver, just get it basic flat black and driveable,” he said, before he was confronted by a challenge he felt he couldn’t refuse – a challenge that was the ultimate tribute to his father.

“Summernats’ judge Owen Webb called in home at Wongarbon and said he wanted to do an unveil at Summernats with us and the car as a tribute to Dad, so that changed things up a bit.

“It’s very prestigious to ask to get a car unveiled, a lot of shops want to get their cars unveiled but

it’s unusual for a backyarder like me to get an unveil.”

An unveil involves taking a car down to the Summernats, one that’s never been seen before by the public. It has to be a newbuild of a good enough quality and something unique.

He said that request was an incredible motivation – it’s not like a Summernats’ guru often makes house calls to request a special car for an unveil, and it opened something up that was buried deep inside Hud. “I had to make things a lot tidier than planned but I’m happy at the way it turned out.”

The challenge was to build something that was different from the garden variety Ford Coupe and one that stayed true to Rod’s original vision.

One major departure from the average was the inclusion of a six-cylinder engine, a concept which would terrify most car builders because the standard thinking is that hot rods need V8s.

“It was always going to have a six-cylinder in it, that’s what Dad envisioned and that’s what I wanted to carry out. Dad assembled the engine that’s in it, the last motor he ever built,” he said.

“Everything on this car, I had to

put as much stuff as I could that Dad had physically touched or had planned for it so it’s paying a true tribute to what he had planned, but still put my influence on areas which he hadn’t figured out yet.

“Everybody seemed to like the concept of what we had going I think just because it’s unique, with the six-cylinder and the way we’ve gone about it and the history behind it, too.”

Hud was hoping to enter the Coupe in some of the Summernats’ driving events but with the build running up until the last 24 hours before he had to head to Canberra, there was simply no time to shake the car down and prepare it for that sort of trial.

“We were still putting it together as I was putting it on the trailer.

“I’d just like to thank everybody who was involved in the build.

It was all done in our shed, the only parts that left here were the seats and thank my wife especially for putting up with me the last month.”

Now that frenetic pace has slowed down, and the car was universally acclaimed for its unique touches and concourse-like finish, Hud can reflect on not only what an achievement it was, but on his own fabrication and engineering skills, proud p that his imagination and abilities ab provided so much please for car enthusiasts from across tthe nation.

“I fee feel good when people appreciate the work involved and there’s a lot of stuff on the car that’s vvery subtle – unless you know a ’34 Ford you don’t pick up on all the t body alterations “Ther “There’s a lot of things in this build tthat were just meant to be.”

H says he’s proud to be a He ba backyarder who can turn his ha hand to pretty much anyth thing, a skillset that’s part o of a dying breed.

“It’s getting harder for th the backyarder to compete w with professional shops with all the equipment and propb er booths and all the modern stuff. I’m still old-school and I’m qua not qualified either, I just learned from D Dad since I was born.

“I’m very proud that Dad was able to teach me all these skills, pr very proud to have the car done. jus big emotional journey It’s just and to h have it done finally and it’s fo the family, for my mum good for and my sister to be able to see the comple completed car.”

Music legend swinging into town

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

Tom Burlinson.

PHOTO: SUPPLIED

AFTER six months of anticipation, Tom Burlinson is returning to the Dubbo Regional Theatre with his latest performance set to swing on Saturday, February 5.

Mr Burlinson’s latest musical production, Now We’re Swinging, is a salute to the masters of the genre from swinging legends to contemporary artists.

“I’m really looking forward to returning to Dubbo again,” the renowned performer told Dubbo Photo News, adding that audiences here have always welcomed him and put on a great show.

“I have not been to Dubbo in a while with all that has been happening, but I do want to reassure people that I am coming this time around.

“Dubbo has an extraordinary venue, and I cannot wait to perform in it once again.”

Mr Burlinson shared his concerns about the hesitancy of performing in an interior venue, but said “recently in the shows I have performed at, people are more than thrilled to able to see a live show”.

“The responses have been great so far and my confidence grows in Dub-

bo as I’m sure people will enjoy it just as much.”

Alongside Mr Burlinson will be a live swing band featuring some of Australia’s best jazz musicians.

The band specialises in a horn combination with a sweet spot for trumpets, saxophones and trombones.

Drawing inspiration from Frank Sinatra, Mr Burlinson has created a lineup of swing classics by Tony Bennet, Sammy Davis Jr, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin, Bobby Darin and modern legends, Harry Connick Jr, Michael Bublé and Robbie Williams.

“A lot of the songs in the show were written for musicals produced in the '20s, '30s and '40s. They have intelligent lyrics and melodic structure, and that’s why they’ve become classics of the genre,” he said, adding his belief that the music of the genre will always remain timeless.

“I found that younger audiences don’t realise these songs were originally written and performed back in the ‘40s and ’50s,” he said, and will seek to set the record straight and make sure the audience knows who the songs original performers were.

“There is so doubt Bublé is a huge fan of Sinatra and there’s no doubt that Sinatra would love to know that a

younger audience still loves his songs.

“I don’t set out to imitate how they sang these songs, but many arrangements in the show are based on the originals."

If people know a song well, he says they'll be familiar with the swinging twist.

Mr Burlinson shared a story that when he was a toddler, he gravitated to the record player when it was playing Sinatra’s A Swingin’ Affair.

“My mum would tell me how I used to point to the record cover and say "play the man in the hat",” he said.

Being a child of the Beatles generation with modern music taking over the industry, he rediscovered the album which reignited his passion.

“I started to explore the style with a lot more interest and now it’s just become a labour of love after many years,” he said.

The song list for the show is a collection of swing classics, including Sway, Just in Time, Beyond the Sea, L-O-V-E, Birth of the Blues and his favourite Sinatra album, A Swingin’ Affair.

“Dubbo has always had an enthusiastic audience so I’m looking forward to coming back and sharing my love for this kind of music once again.”

ADVERTORIAL

Make a meal out of volunteering If there’s one thing many residents at Kintyre Living know, it’s how to step up when called and this happy group have done just that by supporting local charity Meals on Wheels (MOW) with the delivery of nutritious meals to the wider Dubbo community, and their ‘wheels’ is the Kintyre Living bus.

“Volunteers can take the bus to do their rounds and Kintyre donates the petrol money to Meals on Wheels,” says coordinator of the group and long-time MOW volunteer Sharyn Heydon.

“Kintyre started supporting Meals on Wheels over 14 years ago.

Debbie Todkill was the manager back then and had started deliveries with her mum and dad who used to help her. I had moved into Kintyre so came along and joined them.”

Sharon was one of the first residents living in Kintyre and the small volunteer group soon welcomed other founding residents, Bryan O’Sullivan and husband and wife team, Hela and Malcolm Bryan.

“We’re just happy to be involved,” Malcolm says.

Whether supporting Dubbo or a neighbour, being able to volunteer with Meals on Wheels is just one of many opportunities for residents to live meaningful lives connected to community.

“Kintyre Living’s an over 55 resort-style village and we encourage people that are looking for active, socially inclusive lifestyles to come and join us,” Kintyre Living Customer Liaison Manager Danielle Chapman says.

“We also facilitate the chance to give back to the community by participating in volunteer work like Meals On Wheels, just as these residents have been doing. It’s an opportunity for residents to remain engaged, interactive and active.”

Aside from Sharon, none of the current enthusiastic volunteers had ever volunteered for MOW but thoroughly love the chance to visit Dubbo residents in need of assistance and offer important social interaction.

Left to right, Bryan O’Sullivan, Corinne Smith, Sharyn Heydon, Hela and Malcolm Bryan and Gary Huggins and Kintyre Living Customer Liaison Manager Danielle Chapman.

Sharon would love to see more volunteers.

“We’re quite short of volunteers now so we’re really hoping for

more helpers so can we go back to the weekly runs. For insurance purposes, they must be residents of Kintyre,” she says.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Lee O’Connor ❚ OPINION AS communities around the country are crying out because the big corporate publishers have shut down dozens of regional newspapers, leaving country and coastal towns without a voice, the NSW government has been quietly beavering away in the background to further reduce the places where the public can access information.

Back in April 2020, soon after the coronavirus first started slamming businesses, they quickly passed a law removing the requirement for council notices to be advertised in newspapers and instead allowing the relevant notice to be published only on the council’s website.

The government’s press release said that the changes would assist councils to “redirect resources to ensure the delivery of essential services to their communities...” and to “provide financial relief to businesses and residents”.

The amendment was tacked onto a short list which gave councils scope to delay rates notices, waive fees for some of their services to business, and give them an extension of time to do some of their financial reporting.

Pardon me, but it is hard to see how removing public notices from the local paper would help deliver essential services and financially assist local businesses struck by Covid.

Removing information from the public eye is undemocratic And what about after the pandemic?

Fortunately, Coonamble Shire Council opted not to take up the opportunity to withhold public notices at the time, or since, but there it was and there it stays for any council who wants to use it.

It could be notices about tip fees, or rate increases, or who knows what, but shifting notices to online-only format on a council website will remove it from the view of large sections of the population who don’t go trawling local government websites each week looking for the latest things that might affect them.

Fast forward to January 2022, and these legislation mutations seem to be spreading like a virus.

The latest is an announcement

by WaterNSW and the Natural Resources Access Regulator (NRAR) which was – perhaps ironically – printed in the public notices of some regional newspapers.

The Water Management Regulations have been changed so that “applications made to the respective agencies that require advertising will no longer need to be featured in newspapers”.

And it’s already started. “From January 2022, these applications will be advertised for the required 28 days on the respective agency’s website.”

This seems like tucking it away

mats and these public notices often trigger word-of-mouth mentions and discussions among groups with certain shared areas of interest such as residents along certain roads or rivers, who can – once alerted – contact the relevant department for more information.

These days, there is no requirement for any government-funded agency to advertise their services. Sometimes it’s hard to know what’s happening at your Service NSW agency or hospital or court house or TAFE college.

Even the NSW Electoral Commission has ceased publishing public notices that contain useful information about elections – including when, where and how to vote – and now expects every adult in the state to be scouting their websites or social media pages looking for things they didn’t know were there.

Good for Google’s business, and good for Facebook. Not so great if you’re a small privately-owned newspaper who used to receive a small boost from the payments for vital information published during ` time.

Even for those with ready election Among newspaper proprietors access to a computer and across the state there is a dawning internet, this move is a recognition that our state governgigantic backward leap ment has no interest in “directing resources” or any “frontline Covfor open and transparent government... a id response efforts” in any way to our industry, regardless of how so no one will notice – unless you’re inclined to visit the various state government’s complex web of water-related websites on a regular basis and check up to make sure that there’s no nasty surprises happening up river from your home, farm or business.

Even for those with ready access to a computer and internet, this move is a gigantic backward leap for open and transparent government.

Putting a public notice in your local newspaper puts these notices in front of thousands of people in a particular area who want to keep up to date with what’s happening in that particular area. What’s more, once published it’s there ‘in black and white’ and cannot be deleted, updated, edited or archived as can easily occur on websites.

Most newspapers are now available both in print and online for-

hard our sector has been hit by the pandemic.

The spread of this type of reductive legislation is the thin edge of a wedge that threatens to extend far into the future and across multiple departments, simultaneously putting at risk the viability of hundreds of small to medium sized businesses who publish the bulk of local newspaper titles across the state.

Regardless of whether you think governments should pay to put notices in the newspaper in the same way they have to pay to put fuel in their cars or planes, perhaps it’s time to take notice of this type of anti-democratic behaviour.

Stopping the advertisement of information that is in the public interest in local newspapers is not a major money-saver. Burying that information instead on their own websites certainly won’t improve the public’s access to information or boost the delivery of government services. So, we need to ask ourselves – and our parliamentarians and bureaucrats – why is this happening?

Feel free to ring WaterNSW, NRAR, or the Premier and ask them the question. We’d love to know the answer. z Lee O’Connor is Deputy President of Country Press NSW and the editor of the Coonamble Times.

Spider-Man: No Way Home

By AARON HILL SPIDER-MAN: No Way Home is the continuation after the events of Far from Home, and Peter Parker's identity has been revealed by Mysterio. He goes to Doctor Strange for help, to set things the way it was, but everything goes into a cataclysmic event, where every villain from every reality collides into one big multiverse.

Now just so we're all clear, this review will be spoiler free, so don't worry about a thing here. But there will be a spoiler review next week, so do go see this movie this instant if you have the chance.

So how was the movie? This was by far the best Marvel film since Infinity War. All of the acting, especially Tom Holland's, was excellent. The story was very impressive, and the special effects were as usual, the best.

Let's talk about the villains:

INSANITY STREAK

THE SPATS

Alfred Molina, who A plays Doctor Octopus p – this blew up on the internet, and he really gives a great performance once again. m Willem Dafoe was excellent as the return ex of th the Green Goblin. I was so excited to see him again.

Jamie Foxx as Electro – I was sceptical at first, but he's no longer a blue, CGI monstrosity.

Instead, they finally made him the yellow electric villain like the comics, and he's actually not forgettable this time.

I'm sure we've been through Marvel films a lot, but as usual, stick around for two post credit scenes.

Overall, this movie is worth your time. I really really REALLY loved it, and I'm giving this one a 10/10 If you would like to enjoy more of my reviews visit my Facebook page The Critical Films. *Aaron Hill is a local Dubbo film-buff.

Yes, folks, you guessed it: Hotel California The Eagles Experience live stage show salute has just been to town, and what a night it was at the Dubbo Regional Theatre and Conven-

tion Centre (DRTCC).

The renowned tribute to the extraordinary talent of arguably one of the world’s best known and loved bands, The Eagles, was in Dubbo recently, and it was an appreciative crowd that lined up for a taste of the timeless catalogue of songs that seems to know no demographic boundaries.

Dubbo Photo News is reliably informed that audience members checked out of Hotel California any time they liked and were actually able to leave... eventually.

Dubbo Photo News February 3-9, 2022

A Devil of a time for a catch-up Photos by DONNA FALCONER

DUBBO Photo News was out and about at the weekend and ran into some happy locals who were enjoying a catchup at Devil’s Hollow Brewery where the laidback atmosphere was just the ticket. They all said how nice it was to be out enjoying company and great food, but also to be supporting local businesses that have been doing it tough during Covid restrictions.

RIVER BUOYS DETACHED

APHIDS AFFECTING MACQUARIE ST

YOU’RE INVITED

Due to high river flows currently being experienced along the Macquarie River, the warning buoys upstream of the South Dubbo Weir have detached from one side of the river.

All users are requested to exercise extreme caution when approaching the weir, and use the boat portage on the southern side as usual. Reinstatement of the buoys will be undertaken when river level and flows reduce to an acceptable level.

Due to aphids attacking a large number of trees along Macquarie St, the footpaths, seats and bins in the area have been left with a sticky residue. Following the rain this residue can become slippery so caution is urged. Council continues daily cleaning of the area and has engaged a local contractor to conduct additional pressure washing of the footpaths, seats and bins five days a week in the early morning.

DRC invites the community to participate in some Community ‘jam sessions’ led by Yerrabingin Landscape Architects. The Community info sessions will talk through the endorsed design and other details for the Wiradjuri Tourism Centre in Dubbo.

When: Thursday 3 February 11am - 12:30pm & 1:30pm - 3pm Friday 4 February 9am - 11:30am Where: WPCC. Spaces are limited.

VOLUNTEER OF FELICITY TAYLOR-EDWARDS TITAN MACQUARIE MUD RUN THE MONTH Felicity Taylor-Edwards, alongside her husband John, both play a major role when it comes to organising the coordination of the 100-plus volunteers during the much loved event, the Titan Macquarie Mud Run, in Dubbo.

Felicity also takes care of the hundreds of applications and the distribution of funds from the registrations and donations from major sponsors and members of the community generous enough to contribute to the running of the event.

“We couldn’t do it without the sponsorship from the businesses and people in town, they give the equipment and the time that allows the event to go ahead.”

Describing the Mud Run as “a community event where family, friends and strangers can come together and enjoy a heap of uncomplicated fun and exercise out in the great outdoors”, Felicity had been a volunteer to the organisation prior to joining the committee two years ago, assisting with the same kinds of activities and duties the general public can join in with at any time during the event.

“I love being a part of something that gets people out having really uncomplicated

family and friends fun, there’s nothing like rolling in a bit of mud,” Felicity said.

“I love watching a lot of people go over obstacles (using teamwork), the only way they can do it is to help each other out.”

To those of you in the community looking to volunteer, Felicity couldn’t be happier to invite you to come forward.

“Give it a go, it’s so much fun. In giving, you always receive, and it’s a great feeling to put in a bit of time and effort and see people having a heap of fun. That’s the most rewarding thing, it’s a really big ‘feel good’ thing.

“I’d like to encourage people to get together with a group of friends, it doesn’t matter what age or level of fitness, and register and have a go.

“If you’re really not into that, you can come along as a volunteer, you don’t have to sign up to the committee, you can just volunteer on the day, or help us pack up or set up the obstacles before or after the event. And it’s a great way for newcomers to the community to get to know people, roll up your sleeves and have a bit of fun.”

The Titan Macquarie Mud Run will be held on March 19 at Regand Park.

COMPLETE EACH GRID WITH NUMBERS FROM 1 TO 6, KEEPING IN MIND THAT: - a number can only appear once per row - a number can only appear once per column - a number can only appear once in each box of 6 squares

MEGA MAZE

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE

SUDOKU EXTRA

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

z In mid-18th century France, eating potatoes was considered cruel and unusual punishment since they were not only thought of as feed for livestock, but believed to cause leprosy in humans. The fear was so widespread that the French passed a law banning them in 1748. z Every year, Americans alone create around one-fifth of the world’s trash. z Here’s something to be aware of if ever you visit the U.S. city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Some of the boulevard medians have 8- to 10-feet deep bunkers with toilets in them, originally installed in the 1930s as a convenience for city workers who were out and about all day without access to a bathroom. z According to the head of MI6, if Ian Fleming’s iconic hero James Bond were real, he wouldn’t be allowed to work for British intelligence due

NOW HERE’S A TIP to a lack of the required emotional intelligence, respect for the law and teamwork abilities. z In 1907, Parisian waiters went on strike for the right to grow a moustache. z Cruise control in cars was invented in 1948 by the blind inventor and mechanical engineer Ralph Teetor. The idea was inspired by his frustration with his driver’s habit of speeding up and slowing down as he talked. z There is a material called FOGBANK, used by the U.S. Department of Energy, the precise nature of which is classified and so top secret and compartmentalised that the government once actually “forgot” how to make it due to a lack of actual records and dwindling institutional knowledge. z A sloth takes two weeks to digest the food it’s eaten.

But now, it’s a breeze since I learned to do these two things: One, keep plastic wrap in the freezer. It unrolls evenly, not one side or the other. Two, use a serrated knife to cut it instead of relying on the metal strip down the side of the box. You lay it out on the counter, and just run the knife down the edge you want to cut. Works like magic, and it’s no longer frustrating. – G.S. z Store an apple or two with

your potatoes to keep them from sprouting. Be sure to check them often. z Cut cotton pads in half to double your supply. They are typically big enough for two uses, and you can always use two halves if you need a whole. z “Make a cream lipstick last longer and stay cleaner by using a makeup brush to apply. Your skin picks up more of the lipstick than necessary, one reason why we blot our lips afterward. But the brush uses only what you need. And there’s less bacteria transfer.” – Y.R. z Studies have shown that you spend more and make worse decisions when grocery shopping at peak hours. To be a saver on the family groceries bill, pick a time to shop when you’re not rushed; have a list; know the sales ahead of time; and eat before you go.

Peter Heywood - jumping through hoops

By GEOFF MANN PETER Heywood’s acceptance of the Dubbo Regional Council Contribution to Sport Award on Australia Day, epitomized the resilience and “Can Do” attitude of our people.

Peter has been an active member of the Dubbo Croquet Club that has risen from the depths to breathe new life into an aging tennis complex and create a piece of Australian sporting history.

“We hit a hurdle three years ago when the Dubbo City Bowling Club that had cared for the croquet courts for 97 years announced it was handing the facilities over to the Dubbo RSL Memorial Club and we were advised we were not a part of the plans going forward.”

Members were devastated at the suddenness of the news but after a period of “mourning” faced the challenges of finding an alternative.

“Our dilemma was, where do we go. How do we fund a new facility because we were not a wealthy club with major sponsors,” Peter told the appreciative crowd gathered in Victoria Park for the awards’ ceremony.

Peter and his mallet-wielding, ball-jumping colleagues were used to literally “jumping through

hoops” and they put their heads together, canvassed the community and reaped the rewards of their positivity in the face of seemingly impossible odds.

“We have plenty of members who have overcome adversity, both in their personal lives and businesses. Many have run their

own farms so they are not the type to lay down. We set out to find a creative solution.”

Last week I wrote in Photo News: “Little did this band of croquet enthusiasts imagine what lay at the end of the yellow brick road – a collection of sand and synthetic

tennis courts that had served the community for over half a century became an oasis for the people who wear red and white flannels and ply coloured balls with an assortment of wooden and metallic mallets.”

Peter reflected this in his acceptance speech.

“We now have new premises at the Muller Park Tennis Club in North Dubbo, we have the first purpose-built synthetic croquet courts in Australia built by a local bloke who is a specialist in turfing solutions. We did it with inputs from members who have spent a lifetime finding workarounds for everyday hurdles and we were supported by the NSW Government who have given a number of grants as we have taken a staged approach,” Peter continued.

The hard-working team member is not one for seeking the limelight.

“We have a proud tradition of people who have defied the odds.”

When croquet commenced in Dubbo just over 100 years ago, it was a concession to the women who were not allowed to bowl.

Those glass-breaking ladies hit the ground running, developed a culture and have promoted the now non-gender exclusive sport that is growing in popularity.

“I am very pleased and honoured to be here to accept this award on behalf of the pioneers, the dedicated workers and friendly members of the Dubbo Croquet Club”.

For Peter Heywood and his sporting colleague, “Nothing is Impossible”!

Rookie bowler is dual Champion

By GEOFF MANN

JESS Gibson has bowls in her genes and on the weekend they came to the for.

The granddaughter of well known bowler Lloyd ”Doc” Gibson claimed the Minor Singles on Saturday against Kelly Dart and backed up to take the Minor Pairs with her opponent on Sunday.

Jess, who has just been appointed Operations Manager at Club Dubbo took the Minor Singles in a cliffhanger against anoth-

er rising star in Kelly Dart winning 25-24.

Jess’s grandfather won many titles through the ‘80s and 90s and she herself had taken the Minor/ Major pairs, with Judy Cassidy in November. That event was for a major player teamed up with a minor.

Winning the grand slam of the West Dubbo Minor Bowls Championships is a remarkable achievement by a player who has only been rolling up for three months.

Jess has set a high Women’s Minor Pairs winners Kelly Dart, Jess benchmark!

Nothing is Impossible for Kath!

By GEOFF MANN JOCKEY Katherine Bell-Pitomac has been thrown many physical challenges in her career but none more than the broken spine she suffered in a horror multi-horse fall in Tamworth The horse-loving mum had to overcome an unexpected hurdle when she was a child.

‘No one thought horse riding was a sport so even though I was on my pony twice a day and all weekends, teachers told me I had to do other sports. I had a go at everything – netball, hockey, swimming and athletics – and it probably made me even more determined to follow my passion and that’s why I became a jockey.

Kath was described by a journalist as “promising” after her first race as an apprentice. Little did that writer know that when the young athlete from South Australia said the word promise, she meant it.

“I promised myself I would ride on the track one day bit little did I realise that it might be a bendy one with lots of potholes,” she laughed.

The twists included marriage and family and years out of the race scene before moving to Wellington and reigniting her career.

“I rode lots of trackwork and on the Picnic Races circuit but wasn’t really satisfied with that and when Mick Mulholland offered to resume my apprenticeship, well nothing was going to stop me.”

Kath has always been driven, and just like the song “Nothing Is Impossible” chosen as the unofficial theme song for the Olympics and Paralympics in Tokyo last year, she recalled an old t-shirt that became her sort of “Linus blanket”.

“I bought it when I started riding and wore it when I came back to the saddle after a major crash in which I broke my spine. I had real doubts and the doctors were telling me I couldn’t come back and I saw this shirt and said, ‘yep I’m going to buy it’ and I wore it to death and I’d still have it on today except it’s worn out,” she laughed with a tinge of pride.

Kath wore the shirt with the “Nothing Is Impossible” logo when she was rehabilitating in the gym to remind herself that her injuries could be overcome. She vowed she would be back to complete her apprenticeship and ride long into the future.

Kath reckons the teachers who told her riding horses wasn’t a sport would be amazed.

‘I told them it was the best exercise and it honestly was the rock on which I was able to build my recovery.”

After having her children and then spending time out of action with a litany of injuries, Kath used the teachers’ words to drive the return to her passion.

“I am glad I made the decision to step back the first time because I realised that if I had kept on going I may have ruined everything.

But when I made the decision to come back I knew I was going to make a decent go of it. The love I had for horses and the desire to prove that anything was possible was all the motivation I needed.”

Kath’s injury list is substantial.

“I said to someone during the week, ‘when I do something, I do it well and unfortunately this includes injuries! I have injured every part of my body, from the top of my head to the tips of my toes.

I’ve broken very few major bones, just fingers and toes,” she laughed.

That off-the-cuff remark be-

lied the life-threatening injuries she suffered on the Tamworth racecourse.

“I broke my back! But other than that, I have been lucky. There was the broken pelvis after a horse fell on me, a bit of internal bleeding, broken ribs, an injured shoulder and a brain injury associated with the big fall in Tamworth.”

But apart from that, not much to write home about!

Kath reminds me of the famous Monty Python Black Knight who remarked, “it’s only a flesh wound” as another limb was lopped off!

She also remembered when one of her mounts went through the fence when she was a young apprentice, breaking her tailbone.

‘I didn’t realise how important that small and seemingly insignificant bone was going about your daily tasks. You can’t sneeze, you can’t cough and every time you move...”

Again, a smile and a “so what, it’s better now”!

Kath and her husband Daniel, himself a jockey who has recently been forced into retirement because of the number of seri-

ous head injuries he has suffered, were gathered in Cameron Park when Deputy Mayor Richard Ivey announced her as the Wellington Sportsperson of the Year.

“It was an amazing feeling. There were so many people around. I felt bad because we don’t usually get to the celebrations. Horses are our lives and the early mornings mean trackwork and feeding. I actually had to sneak away on Wednesday and leave the hosing down to others,” Kath chuckled.

The humble sportswoman felt in awe of the achievements of those around her who were recognised by the community for their generosity.

“To hear the testimonials for those people left me thinking how much they do and here’s me who just rides horses. It was quite humbling to be up there with so many amazing people. It made me realize what a wonderful community we have here in Wellington.”

Kath says her trainer/friend Mick Mulholland laughed when she said she was going to the ceremony.

“What are you becoming an Aussie Citizen or something”!

The trainer’s reaction was just as understated when Kath showed him her testimonial.

“Oh, that’s good,” Mick said.

“Now finish washing down those horses”!

2020 was a breakthrough when Kath piloted O Old Harbour to a win in the Central West Championship final but her h hopes of riding in the $500,000 final fina at Royal Randwick were dashed when w the horse suffered a tendon injury.

Memorable wins in the Forbes Cup, Old Harb Harbour in the Country Championship Championships and then Who’s Tinny to outride ou her apprenticeship with her 100th winner stand out b but the quietly spoken horse horsewoman says every day she jumps on a horse bring brings special memories.

K Kath has such a refre freshing attitude to ra racing.

“It doesn’t matte ter whether it’s a n non-Tabber or a Cou Country Championship rac race, you strive to do your best for the horse and the owners.”

On Boxing Day she scored on Digger’s Reach for Gary McCarney.

“It was such a thrill, you know, local horse, local trainer, my home track.”

‘To take a horse you’ve been working with for a while and see it reach a milestone is what it’s all about.”

Kath honed in on the words of Corey Cutt, the Young Australian of the Year who gave the address in Cameron Park.

“Corey’s focus says it is all about improving things for people going forward. It really rang a bell for me. At this stage of my life I know I’m not a 20 year old who has a long career ahead. I’ve had injuries and my husband Daniel is no longer able to race and I know that injuries are going to slow me down at some stage but while I’m here, if I can help one person or encourage them in their journey then that’s what it’s all about.

“If I can help one person or encourage one person or be the difference between someone giving up or keeping going, that is far more important to me than going out and winning these hugebig races. What I would like to achieve with my riding career is to create something better for kids coming through.”

Ducks set times for Western Districts

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL TWENTY-FOUR of the flock dived in on Sunday, keen to record their correct times for the Western Districts Carnival at Nyngan on February 13th.

“Going by the times in the 100 metres Freestyle there needs to be a little training done to bring them up to speed,” veteran Duck David Sparkes quacked.

The finish of the final of the 2x 25 metre Breaststroke/ Breaststroke brace relay was very close with Bill Greenwood and Mia Uebergang getting the red flag for breaking their time barrier.

“Thankfully, the old bushranger “Ned”, Sparkle, Sparkesy and his partner in crime, Norm Bahr were on hand to pick up the cash on hand.”

The 25m Butterfly once again saw an unusual array of “styles”.

“Talk about a flock of dying ducks. Makes for great entertainment,” David smiled.

This week the Ducks will swim for the Dick Smith Transport February Monthly Trophy followed by lunch and final plans for the trip to Nyngan.

‘From the greens’ ... last one... before the next one!

Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’ AND the next one will be Feb 13th as the greens are being used for an event conducted by Dubbo City Bowls this coming Sunday, Feb 6th. Gad! The temperature in the early morning was mild, but last Sundy on the green it was ‘hot’, in temp as well as in bowls! During this heat, 34 bowlers opened their bowls’ bags for the task ahead.

Robert Pfeiffer, Julie Brown and Deb Hayden v Leo Balstrad, Gaye Cottee and Eric Satchell.

Team Satch were off to a flyer with a five shot first end. Deb gathered her side, ‘let’s get into it...” and they began their campaign with four shots over two ends, gaining the lead after end 7 by just a single shot. However, Satch and his side put together a four and a two to regain the lead by five shots on end 9. They held on until 14 before a well bowled thrust saw Deb and team bank an incredible eight shots – yeah, eight shots from nine bowls to grab the

game and lead, ending the proceedings with a great win – 21 shots to 17!

Winning 10 of the 16 ends, Beryl Scott, Doc Livingston and Col Cottee ensured a win against Ron Morrison, Lionel Ayoub and Cath Edwards. Beryl played outstandingly for her team who followed her example. A couple of big scoring ends – six shots on ends 5 and 11 – certainly put paid to the efforts of Cath’s team. The average of 1.5 shots to 0.5 shots produced the result with Col Cottee’s team blitzing Cath’s side 25 shots to 9.

On Rink 3, a couple of teams went at each other, giving all they could. John Kennedy, Peter Bennison and Bryan O’Sullivan went head to head with Ron McAuley, Ross Pharo and Ruby Stockings.

Both sides manned up for most of the game.

The biggest margin being four shots on end 11 in favour of team Bryan. “Sully” is known as the master of taskin so he pushed his side to go beyond. However, the determination of Ruby and her

team almost pulled off an unexpected win. The final one shot difference – 11-10 – in favour of John, Peter and Bryan was a fair reflection of a brilliant contest.

Crazy!

There was a bit of a surprise on rink 4 where Shirley Marchant, Steve Kelly and Kevin Scott downed Allan Stratford, Gordon Lummis and Matt Quill – two determined foes led by Matt and Kevin, put great trust in their teams.

At six-all at end 11 there was certainly nothing in it, but, as they say, “it ain’t over till the crow flies!” Scores were locked together with just 13 three ends to go and it was obvious one of the teams had to exert themselves. Shirley, Steve and Kevin held their nerve and skipped away to win a good game 12 – 7.

Shirley hung in despite the heat and she was one happy bowler at the club house presentation.

Next door, Gus Chrisochristas, Karen Greenhalge and Gordon Scott combined for a 13 shot win

over Sue McAuley, Mel Giddings and Pete Ruzans. Things were going pretty well for Pete’s team till end six when ‘the other lot’ planted four three-shot ends, followed by a two and a four put Pete’s side not only down, but pretty much out.

Gus – a ‘nomad’ from St Georges Basin – showed them all how a lead should bowl, more often than not placing a bowl on the jack and the other two behind. It was perfect lead’s bowling. Karen did her job, drawing in to put the pressure on their opponents. Pete had one of ‘those’ days which did not help his team. Big smiles for the winners!

Cheryl Storch and Johnny Haden played pairs against Roger Shirwin and Col Dover on rink six. As one might expect, Roger and Col opened their game with a good three shots but what happened from then on is a question still being asked as Johnny and Cheryl piled on 15 shots to zip, zero, nothing during ends 2 to 8.

16 to 3 at that stage looked oh-so

pretty for a win. Roger and Col kept trying but could not decrease the deficit enough and it ended up 20 shots to 10.Cheryl and Johnny were all smiles after defeating what should have been a strong combination – at least on paper. A damn good win!

Best team – Beryl Scott, Doc Livingston, and Col Cottee with 26 points.

Runners-up -Gus, Karen and Gordon a strong second with 23 points.

Lucky numbers – Robert Pfeifer, Gordon Lummis, and Graham Ross.

Resting their bowls against the jack Peter Bennison, Kev Scott and young Johnny Haden.

Bowler of the Year – Doc Livingston and Col Cottee are leading with Col Dover and Helen Emblem in hot pursuit.

This Sundy (Feb 6) is a rest day.

All our keen, enthusiastic, happy Sundee Combo bowlers can sleep in, have a longer brekky or just chill out!

DUBBO CYCLE CLUB/RICHARD SCRIVEN

Cyclists race at the Adelaide Festival of Cycling

By GEOFF MANN HAYLEE Fuller and Danny Barber were amongst the best riders from across Australia, Ireland, Canada and South Africa who competed at the Adelaide Velodrome last weekend.

The pair then turned their attention to the road rubbing pedals with Olympic Team Members and National Champions. Haylee contested the Women’s Omnium – Scratch Race, Tempo Race (point every lap), Elimination Race and the Pointscore.

Haylee finished within the top six in both the Scratch Race and Tempo and was in a similar spot when eliminated after 17 laps in the Omnium.

Danny rode in the Sprint qualifications against Olympians and showed why he had taken all the sprint medals on offer last year.

He clocked an astonishing personal best time of 10.097 for the 200m event. Only two riders went under the 10 second mark – Olympic and national champions Matthew Glaetzer and Matthew Richardson.

Once again Danny lifted in the Keirin and impressed international commentators with his strength and tactical racing skills. Legends in Cycling and Olympic gold Medallist Scott McGory and Anna Mears – nine times World and 37 times National Champion – were full of praise for the Dubbo athlete.

Both marked him as a rising star, already “one of the best in the world”.

“Danny has a bright future and youth is firmly on his side. He has big power at call and will clearly improve,” they commented.

Scott McGory made reference to Danny’s training video on Instagram consisting of 185kg squats and 220kg deadlifts and the experience of Andrew Taylor, another retired Dubbo local who claimed multiple Australian and National titles.

“Andrew has been responsible for Danny’s recent massive increase in power.”

Danny is now at the AIS and is matching it with Australia’s best on a daily basis so improvement is expected as he settles into the tempo of top class cycling.

Once the Festival was

completed, Haylee swapped her track bike for the road wheels in the Santos Tour Down Under. She was the junior chosen to compete with the green and gold Garmin team made up of international pro-signed athletes.

Haylee showed her extreme fitness and absolute will to succeed, overcoming some brutal dirt sections and plenty of challenges as individuals and groups in the peloton fell along the way.

“At the 7km mark and with a gruelling 73km under her legs, Haylee showed an awesome turn of pace to bring the field to heel up the final climb. This pace-making to quell the field allowed her team leader Grace Brown to move into a secure position. Her move inflicted a great deal of damage to the field and with her great effort done Hayls peeled off to let the team leaders fight it out,” Dubbo Cycle Club Life member Matt Gilbert said.

“Haylee took on the worker’s role for her team leader and with her job done well she finished with the second bunch.”
