Hear, Hear to Healthy Hearing!

SINCE 2016 Dubbo Public Hearing Support teachers Donna Rees and Rachel Mills have run a yearly ‘Healthy Ears Week’ with University of NSW’s (UNSW) Medical Outreachers Australia students, and the ‘Hear our Heart’ Ear Bus project.

The 26 medical students are trainee doctors and come every year to help deliver healthy ears and hearing loss education.

The students come for four days.

The first day they spend with in workshops learning about hearing loss in children, deaf culture and Aboriginal culture.

Days 2-4 are then out into the schools to deliver healthy ears education.

This year the program has

been run at Rainbow Cottage Childcare, and Dubbo Public School.

They have taught 28 classes in three days, which would normally take teachers Donna and Rachel up to a month to do.

Not only have they been teaching children they have also been participating in hearing loss activities that provide for them like learning Auslan and basic hearing screening. The students spend a session with the ‘Hear our Heart’ Ear Bus learning about hearing testing.

Activities that the Medical Students provided this week were:  Nose-blowing puppet shows for Pre-school, Kindergarten and Yrs 1-3

 Hearing-loss awareness lessons for Yrs 4-6  Sound scouts hearing screening for Yrs 5-6  ‘Teddy Bear Hospital’ program for Pre-school, Kindergarten and the support class.  Played with the kids in the playground during recess and lunch wearing the life-size Healthy Ears puppet costumes.

This program is very popular at UNSW with a waiting list to be accepted each year.

The organisers hope that this country experience with our country hospitality encourages the visiting students to return as a qualified GP as there is a desperate need to secure doctors for the bush.

MOTORFEST'S FIRST-EVER EVENT ON TRACK FOR 5000 FANS, 1000 VEHICLES

By DAVID DIXON INAUGURAL Dubbo MotorFest – set-down for the first weekend of September – is on track to draw up to 5000 visitors to the Golden West, organisers believe.

With around 1000 high-performance vehicles also set to take part, it’s all cruising along just fine at the moment, Organising Committee Chair Nick Pahlow said.

“We’re going along well, with quite a few inquiries already, including a number of interstate applications,” he said.

“We’ve got the various events we want to hold – high-end, high-quality cars; a freestyle motocross event; and a swap meet, the first one in Dubbo for 30 years,” he added.

The event will also feature trade displays, aerial motocross exhibitions, helicopter rides, and children’s activities.

“You don’t want to miss the mega Victory Lane Motorcycles Ride – in which we will see thousands of bikes converge on the Dubbo Showground throughout the day,” he said.

“We want to present a full-day of activities so local and visiting owners and restorers can share

techniques and exchange information on the latest in vehicle and bike restoration methods.”

The Inland Petroleum Concourse Arena will also feature a range of exquisite vehicles and bikes and will be a huge drawcard for entries and, of course, spectators, he added.

“The event invites owners of prestige, vintage, unique, and collector motor vehicles and motorcycles to attend and participate in the massive ‘Show and Shine’

event,” Mr Pahlow said.

The festival, he explained, was initially just a concept developed by a group of motor enthusiasts, who decided to give the idea a redhot go.

“It’s just a hobby, an enthusiasm from a group of like-minded vehicle owners,” he said. “Our club has over 300 members. We are owners of cars, motorbikes, trucks, utes, and hot-rods of all makes, models and ages.

“Mine is a HQ Holden, 1973, I’ve

had it about four years… it’s one of those old-style muscle cars,” he explained.

With organisation well in hand, the only thing they need now is a good turn-up of motoring buffs and car fans from throughout the state.

“We just need people to come along to make it a successful event, we want to make it an annual event,” Mr Pahlow said.

“We believe we’ll get 5000 people through the gate and 1000 ve-

hicles participating – that’s our target,” he added.

The event is being presented by the Dubbo Motorcyclist and Drivers Club Inc (‘Dubbo MAD Club’) at the Dubbo Showground on Saturday, September 2 (appropriately, the day before Father’s Day).

As a town that loves its cars, Dubbo is the ideal location for this first-ever event, he believes.

“We are super-excited. We know the Dubbo community is going to love it!” he concluded.

Love local creatives and sight-seeing?

Wellington Art Trail on this weekend Love art and enjoy driving the scenic central west? Wellington this weekend features a fantastic Art trail inviting aficionados into nine separate studios of local creatives to see their work first-hand.

Involving only a gold coin donation at each studio, the artists and works range from wonderful water-colours, wood-working, still life, life drawing, and the inventive architecture of stone walls.

Artists include Bellandre Park Studio with Marilyn’s gallery featuring beautiful portrait and life drawing works; Stone Of Arc featuring Emma’s brilliant dry stone walls of a Master Stone Waller; Ken at the Caves wood Gallery at his lave turning wood through out the day; and Barbara Preston’s beautiful stilllife’s of flowers of every kind and variety.

“This is our third trail, I’m the coordinator along with another local artist, Gillian Ryan,” fellow artist and creator of the event, Jan Payne said. “it’s an opportunity to see works that have often been in studios for some time that the artists have been working on but haven’t exhibited yet,” she added.

Styled on the garden tours that have become so popular in recent years, there is even a special local property included in the event, she said.

“We’ve got an open garden from sister and brother, Sue Towney and Paul Hannley, that is a wonderful spot,” Jan said.

“The event is essentially for art-minded people to visit the studios of local creatives and to promote local arts in the community in a creative market-place,” she added.

The event starts at the

heart of art in the Wellington community at the old Central Stores in town, she explained.

“The central hub of the trail is at the Western Galleries where we will have 10 market stalls with works by artists, art materials, and food and coffee stalls also,” Jan said. “it’s been great for local artists, as well as from here, we have visitors coming from Newcastle, Bathurst, Orange, Dubbo, Yeoval, right around the central west,” she added.

Star barista, Coffee Just Rocks, will also be joining the trail for those who need a boost for their flagging enthusiasm.

The tour is on this Saturday, July 1, with studios open from 9-5pm; Grab a map from Western Gallery in Wellington, or print one off the website at: www.wellingtonarts.org.au

MACQUARIE STREET’S

Music Man

Most of you know him: he’s the music man on Macquarie Street. You’ll see him there every week with his trusty guitar beating out a tune and always smiling. His name is Greg Nolan and he’s one of Dubbo’s true gentlemen. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/JENET STEWART

Q

By JENET STEWART

uite often down Macquarie Street, you’ll hear the wonderful sound of someone singing. When Dubbo Photo News caught up with local, Greg Nolan, it was amazing to see the community acknowledge his wonderful talent. People passing by saying hello, giving him a wave and stopping to listen to his music.

Greg’s been in Macquarie Street for around eight years now and locals truly admire his talent.

“I grew up as the youngest in a musical family. My dad Les Nolan, mum Joyce Nolan, two brothers Darryl and Ivan, and my sister Iris all played the guitar and did a little singing around home. My dad, however, was a really good guitarist, and was such a great inspiration.

From about 1968 until the early 1970s he played lead guitar for a time with what was then the local Dubbo Country Music Club’s band, and played on stage with Slim Dusty at one time when Slim Dusty had a concert here in Dubbo. A couple of uncles – dad’s brothers, both fantastic guitarists – also helped me in learning the guitar,” Greg fondly remembers.

We asked Greg where he learnt to sing. “I was always a quiet, shy person when l was young, so there was no way in the world that l was brave enough to sing in public, never. Around home maybe, but not in public. I lived in Kempsey for a year in 1979 and attended a local church there. One day during a home meeting, different people had turns singing a song, and they asked me to give it a go to. Well, did l feel put on the spot, but they were friendly and people l knew and felt comfortable with so – after quite a bit more encouraging – l thought, yeah, why not and gave it a go? Their response was kindly encouraging, and it was this experience that gave me a newfound confidence for singing in front of others. I’ve enjoyed singing ever since, love music and haven't been able to shut up… LOL!” Greg said.

Greg spent several years in America where he attended a large Afro-American church. “They had an all-male Afro-American a capella gospel group called ‘The Singing Men’ and were happy for me to join them. l sang with them as one of their three bass singers. It was an amazing, fantastic experience and taught me a lot. I eventually returned to Australia in 1989, and to Dubbo in 2001. In 2009 l did the music course at Dubbo TAFE in the Yarradamarra Centre and learned more from great teachers there about singing technique and per-

formance,” Greg added.

Greg’s love of Dubbo and its people is adamant. He speaks of their gracious behaviour, kindness, their friendly dispositions, and the fact that he really appreciates the Dubbo community. “There are those who stop to have a chat, includ-

ing the occasional person who will come up to me and start a conversation when I’m halfway through a song, which is funny, but it happens.

There has been the occasional notso-nice person. l have been yelled at, and sworn at, but they are rare, thankfully, l just keep on with my music,” Greg happily exclaimed.

Greg truly loves bringing entertainment to the people of Dubbo, to add some artistic character to the street while people are out and about. Something for them to enjoy. “What l especially love about singing on the street is being able to bring some joy, some happiness, a smile to even just one person.

It makes it worth it if someone is blessed by, or simply enjoys, what I’m doing… my music. I've seen people walking down the street with their heads down and, when they get near, they lift their head and a huge smile bursts on their face. I do have regular people who stop and listen to my music, and we'll usually have a bit of a chat between songs. There are others, who l have thought have just stopped to take a rest on the seats nearby on their way to do whatever they are doing, who eventually come over to me and thank me for the songs,” Greg said.

The type of music Greg plays is mostly country, which he was brought up on. He also likes a variety of songs including gospel and some older songs from the 60s and 70s, and some more modern songs.

“The biggest compliment I’ve received from busking was when someone is so moved by this thing that I’m doing. One day l was singing a song and there was a lady sitting listening. I noticed she had tears rolling down her cheeks, so l stopped singing and asked her if she was OK. She immediately said, ‘Don't stop, don't stop, keep singing,’ so l did. It was a song that had touched her heart bringing back a fond memory from years ago. I've had that happen a few times, and it’s very moving, very humbling knowing that something so simple that you’re doing is blessing and impacting someone in such a profound way,” Greg declared.

Last year Greg and one of his singing mates Cal Brinsmead were invited by Mal Norton – who founded and runs the Dusty Boots Festival and Awards, held in Narromine each year – to take part in the festival. “It was on again over the long weekend. We performed there again this year along with some great talent from around Australia. I recommend it as an event to attend next year. It was fun and l had a great time. Also, when l can, l attend the Old Bank Restaurant’s muso night on Tuesday nights and do a few songs there just for fun,” Greg said.

Greg’s father passed away in 1976, and Greg says he’s forever thankful to him for the gift of music. “The old guitar is like a good old friend and it’s nice to be able to pick it up and play a tune when I’m at home. It’s even more a blessing to me to be able to pick it up and along with the gift of singing, be able to entertain and bless others. I guess my main inspiration for music remains my dad. In 2022, Dad was honoured at the Dusty Boots Festival and Awards with a Dusty Boots Award for Services to Country Music. He was posthumously inducted into the Dusty Boots Hall of Remembrance. One of the Dusty Boots awards is named after him as well,” Greg proudly explains.

Next time you’re wondering Macquarie Street and you see Greg, stop and listen to him, have a chat or just give him a smile… he’s sure to reciprocate as he’s one of Dubbo’s true gentlemen.

We’ve Moved!

9 KC Print Shop has moved to 106 Erskine Street in North Dubbo.

It’s still the same Dubbo business who’ve been providing a one stop printing shop since 1979.

T

The new location offers much easier access and ample parking spaces for trades people, farmers and anyone with larger vehicles or even trailers who previously found it difficult to find a park at the old location. The premises are now much larger and offer the required room to accommodate signage manufacturing and application which is an additional and much sought after product and service now provided by KC Print Shop.

You’ll note there’s still a familiar face in store - Cheryl, although retired, is occasionally on hand to provide her wealth of experience and input to the business as always.

KC Print Shop provides services to most of NSW incorporating businesses as far north as the Queensland border, south to the Victorian border and west to Broken Hill.

The services provided by KC Print shop include the supply of uniforms, workwear and sporting apparel which can be embroidered, screen printed or sublimated to customise the products to suit your requirements.

We also have a huge selection of trophies which can be individually engraved for each team member or achiever and a large selection of stock manufactured products to choose from as well. If a team is a little more creative, custom made awards are also an option. Of course, team wear can be customised and manufactured to compliment a team’s individual style.

Laser engraving is also available and can be used on glassware, boards, knives, name badges and collectable items.

social limitations, in previous years, it’s nice to hear that the Dubbo Showground is experiencing higher than pre-COVID levels for bookings in 2023.

Dubbo Showground has managed to have booked 259 days this year, leaving just three weekends available of bookings for the rest of 2023, a huge feat by Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) and their staff. “Like many other places for hire in the region, the bookings are higher than pre-COVID levels with many new hirers, regular hirers and past hirers re-connecting after an absence of a number of years,” DRC Showground Operations Coordinator Gavin Hayton said.

“There’s a total of 93 events booked and, of course, our 150th Dubbo Show was the largest of the events booked with many thousands of people attending.”

The NSW Government Department of Planning, Industry and Environment’s Showground

Planning for future Aged Care needs seminar.

Stimulus Fund has provided funding for numerous showgrounds across the state to benefit local communities, deliver economic stimulus, showground maintenance and improvement outcomes.

Over the past 12 months the Dubbo Showground has undergone several improvements, including the creation of the Pavilion Piazza, the refurbishment of the current Ray Clarke and Centenary Pavilions and the toilet amenities near the grandstand. “The new Pavilion Piazza was a really welcome addition to the Dubbo Showground. It’s a new paved area in front of the pavilions with new seating and we saw lots of patrons utilise the new space at the Dubbo Show,” Mr Hayton said.

Upcoming events to look out for include the Aussie Night Markets Winter Festival, the Caravan and Camping 4WD Fish and Boat Show, Orana Equestrian Club Championships and many more. Make sure you keep an eye out on council’s website for all upcoming scheduled events.

Local farmers learning to identify endangered Regent Honeyeater

PHOTO: NSW LLC

Who says that agriculture and conservation can’t go hand-in-hand?

More than 30 farmers and community members from the Central West, from as far as Narrabri and Euchareena, recently gathered at Taronga Western Plains Zoo, to help in a major protection project to help identify an endangered bird species in the wild.

The group gathered to get a glimpse of, and learn more about, efforts to save the critically endangered Regent Honeyeater that is endangered throughout its south-eastern Australia range.

The event provided the opportunity to

see the birds up close and raise awareness of the recovery efforts – including the successful captive breeding and wild release program – by the Department of Planning and Environment, BirdLife Australia, and the Taronga Conservation Society.

Attendees were able to see, hear, and learn about the captive breeding program and understanding how many birds have successfully been released back into the wild and re-sighted over the past three years.

Since 2008, more than 400 captive-bred birds have been released into the wild across Victoria and NSW. Many

of these birds have survived and been re-sighted over the years and have been observed successfully breeding.

Event attendees also heard how the birds are given song training to help other Regent Honeyeaters recognise their own song. Keepers are giving zoo-bred Regent Honeyeaters “singing lessons” to help them breed in the wild, increase their population and survive for generations to come.

Given that there are only a few hundred Regent Honeyeaters left in the wild, very few of those attending had ever seen or heard the species first-hand before and

were delighted to see the captive birds in their flight aviary.

Possible community sightings of Regent Honeyeaters should be reported to Birdlife Australia via the Birdata app or the BirdLife Australia website.

“Remember to pay attention to any coloured leg bands if you can see them as the colour combination can help identify the bird,” an event spokesperson said.

The “Reaching Out to the Regent Honeyeater Project” is supported by Central West Local Land Services through funding from the Australian Government’s National Landcare Program.

ost people around Dubbo know or have heard of the extraordinary talents of Brett (Mon) Garling and his ability to cast life-size sculptures in bronze at his foundry in Wongarbon. But Mon isn’t only a sculptor but an avid plein air artist (meaning painting and drawing in the landscape just like the French Impressionists did all those years ago).

On the June long weekend, Mon took a group of enthusiastic artists into the hills of Wattle Flat, a little township around 30 minutes drive from Bathurst and not far from Sofala. The group spent the weekend painting under Mon’s skilful tuition.

Also present were some of Australia’s most talented plein air impressionist artists in Kasey Sealy, Bruce Roberts and Phil Budge.

The group travelled from far and wide across New South Wales to attend the workshop and they weren’t disappointed. “Great experience at my first oils, plein air workshop. Thanks so much Mon. A very enjoyable social side with good people,” workshop participant Ros-

ie Johnston said.

Artists began their first day of painting on a rather cloudy and cool Friday morning at the bottom of a scrubby hill, painting a white gum among the picturesque treescape. Mon provided continuous tuition throughout the day, assisting the group to fine-tune their skills.

Saturday was a challenging day with a grand old shearing shed to paint: this really stretched the artists and their skills. Sunday saw a big white frost and an old 1860 redroofed building nestled in the scrub as the next subject matter. Later that day artists painted a water scene with beautiful reflections and shadows of trees on the water.

Each evening was met with delicious meals and great conversations at the Ryder Homestead near Wattle Flat, and afterwards a blazing campfire with more conversations that led into the cool, crisp evenings. Mon summed it up well: “It was a great workshop with an enthusiastic bunch of artists, brilliant subjects and superbly organised – thank you Artists Idyll.”

Remembering our Land Rights Legends on NAIDOC 2023 16

By Grace Toomey, NSW Aboriginal Land Council

Grace Toomey, NSW Aboriginal Land Council Photo: Dubbo Photo News

40 years ago, an important and progressive piece of legislation was enacted in NSW. The proclamation of the NSW Aboriginal Land Rights Act (ALRA) on June 10, 1983 was the first time a NSW government formally recognised Aboriginal people’s prior ownership of the state.

Land rights recognise our freehold title rights to our land and waterways and are fundamental to Aboriginal self-determination and autonomy.

The ALRA’s establishment was a turning point on a challenging road walked by our Elders, the Land Rights Legends, who fought for governments to recognise our rights to our land. The ALRA is the legal mechanism through which we claim freehold title on limited classes of Crown land, as some compensation for the dispossession and disadvantage our people have suffered.

I was a teenager when the ALRA was enacted, and I remember the meetings, mountains of paperwork, rallies and the anticipation of our Elders as they moved closer to their goal. It’s important to remember that the ALRA only became law because of our Old People. They held dozens of community meetings, lobbied and pored over documents. They strategised together, negotiated with politicians, and took to the streets to rally for justice.

Four decades later, NSW has a network of 121 independent Local Aboriginal Land Councils

June 29-July 5, 2023 Dubbo Photo News (LALCs) in nine regions with Members and elected Boards, headed by the state body, the NSW Aboriginal Land Council (NSWALC). Nine NSWALC Councillors are democratically elected by the Members every four years to represent their region. I’m privileged as the Central Region Councillor, to work with Local Aboriginal Land Councils in Dubbo, Gilgandra, Mudgee, Narromine, Nyngan, Trangie, Warren, Gulargambone-Weilwan and Wellington.

This year’s NAIDOC theme For Our Elders is particularly meaningful for me as a community woman and an elected Councillor, as I reflect on our Old People’s dedication to protecting our culture and heritage and activating our lands to deliver economic prosperity through the LALCs for our communities.

Although I’d like to say all has gone smoothly since 1983, the Elders’ fight isn’t over. There were still 38,000 outstanding land claims on June 30, 2022. Land that could be used in economic and social areas like much-needed community housing, is frozen by bureaucratic delays. We continue to work with government on overcoming obstructions and resolving this backlog. Our sacred places are still being destroyed. NSWALC continues our Elders’ battle for legislation to protect Aboriginal Culture and Heritage. And Aboriginal community-controlled organisations still fight to be equal partners in local decision making on matters affecting them.

2023 is the NAIDOC year For Our Elders and their journey lives on with us. Let’s make them proud by respecting their legacy, our families and community structures, and supporting them. When they speak, let’s listen.

Reconciliation in action

18

With NAIDOC Week starting this Sunday, Dubbo Regional Council is reflecting on the actions they have been putting in place to further reconciliation in the organisation and across the region.

The recent signing of a working agreement with the Wellington Aboriginal Action Panel is the latest in a series of measures Council has put in place to facilitate local reconciliation outcomes. A similar agreement with the Dubbo Aboriginal Community Action Party was signed in 2022, meaning that the

region’s First Nations people now have more ability to advise Council on matters that relate to them than ever before.

Dubbo Regional Council will also be assisting in the facilitation of this year’s NAIDOC flag raising ceremony in Dubbo, which will be held at the end of the Evelyn Barker Memorial NAIDOC March on Monday 3 July, commencing at 10am out the front of Bob Jane T-Mart on Macquarie Street, Dubbo. This is on top of $25,000 worth of funding that has been made available to NAIDOC

Week events held in Dubbo, and $15,000 for those holding events in Wellington, where NAIDOC Week is marked in September.

Council has also recently commenced an Indigenous cultural awareness campaign for all staff, which will continue to be rolled out across the organisation throughout 2023.

Dubbo Regional Council implemented an Aboriginal Employment Strategy in 2021, with 14 per cent of Council staff being Aboriginal in at the time of its

June 29-July 5, 2023 Dubbo Photo News implementation. The strategy identified a range of goals going into the future including enhancing career paths for Aboriginal employees, supporting and retaining Aboriginal employees, creating and maintaining a culturally safe environment for Aboriginal staff.

The work to further spread awareness of and celebrate local Indigenous culture extends to the plans for a new Dubbo Wiradjuri Cultural Centre, which was originally announced in 2019. With funds committed by the NSW Government, the centre will include an art gallery and museum space, yarning circles, dedicated cultural performance areas, educational facilities, and trails linking the centre to the Wiradjuri Gardens of the Botanical Gardens, with all elements dedicated to telling the story of the First People of our region.

Further challenges that exist for the Aboriginal people of the region include a shortage of social housing, an area Council has committed to working on with other stakeholders including the State and Federal Governments.

As Dubbo Regional Council works to continue to demonstrate a commitment to reconciliation in our region, facilitating the selfdetermination of local Aboriginal people on the issues that affect them and celebrating their ancient culture and knowledge, Council wishes everyone across the region a Happy NAIDOC Week.

COVER STORY

By David Dixon

Education the key to improving Indigenous lives

Dr Lynette Riley has been awarded an Order of Australia Photo: Supplied

A pioneering Aboriginal academic born and raised in Dubbo and who helped create an innovative “Kinship Module” for Indigenous studies, recently received an Order of Australia under the King’s Birthday Honours List.

For the University of Sydney’s Aunty (Dr) Lynette Riley (AO), education has always been the key to improving the lot of our First Nations.

Dr Riley believes that the passing of the 1967 referendum on recognising Indigenous Australians in the census, was a key part of her own journey from Dubbo to a career in academia.

“For me, when I started high school in 1969, and that was two years after the 1967 referendum, and the 1967 referendum didn’t start to have an impact until then,” she said.

“I’ve got cousins only a couple of years older than me who did not get the same opportunity to have an access to education that I had, and so for my Mum and Dad, they were not able to have an education,” she said.

Associate Professor, Senior Lecturer, Executive Director, Indigenous studies and Aboriginal education, Sydney University, acting co-chair, national NAIDOC Committee,

Aunty Lyn is a distinguished educator, Wiradjuri and Gamilaroi Elder, and lifelong advocate for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s right and access to education.

She said that her father instilled in her the importance of change through learning, telling her: “I know you needed that education to get a good life and you want to create change.”

Aunty Lyn is a distinguished educator, Wiradjuri and Gamilaroi Elder, and lifelong advocate for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s right and access to education.

“I feel that my education I’ve had is not just for me, but for my family and community,” she added.

Dr Riley was born in the mid1950s, and was educated at Dubbo High School before completing teacher training at

June 29-July 5, 2023 Dubbo Photo News Armidale College of Advanced Education in 1977. Her first posting as a teacher was at Moree.

Riley has education experience in a range of organisations including primary schools, high schools, TAFE and universities. In addition to teaching and research, Riley has also been actively involved in state government policy, for example as Acting Director of Aboriginal Education and Training NSW DET in 2002-2005.

From 1986 Riley became a Research Fellow at the University of New England. She founded the Aboriginal Student Support Centre, "Oorala Centre" at the University and went on to establish the Frank Archibald Memorial Lecture series focusing on Aboriginal issues.

In July 2014, the University of Sydney launched the online learning tool 'Kinship Module' which aims to increase understanding of indigenous culture. The content of this online module was largely based on research conducted by Riley and her colleagues Janet Mooney and Deirdre Howard-Wagner.

Riley has been conducting Kinship presentations for a variety of audiences for many years with great success.

NARROMINE AND WARREN STAR

THE National Party may be at their lowest ebb, currently partnering no Coalition Government Australia-wide, but that didn’t stop a good old knees-up for one of their most popular members recently.

Last Friday night a special dinner was held in Dubbo to celebrate the decadeand-a-half since the election of the Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton.

State and Federal leaders, two former deputy prime ministers, and top-ranking senators, all came-together to celebrate the 15 years since Mr Coulton’s election to Parliament.

“I was joined by many friends, supporters, colleagues and family members for this special occasion,” he said later.

“My thanks to all involved in this wonderful night, which included speeches

by special guests Leader of the Nationals David Littleproud, and Shadow Minister for Indigenous Australians Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price,” he added.

Not wasting the visit, he also enlisted the federal leader and Senator Price to visit some local programs supporting Aboriginal people in the area.

“Our first stop was the Regional Enterprise Development Institute (Redi.E) to meet general manager and Gamillaroi man, Peter Gibbs, who introduced us to his team and discussed the work Redi.E does to deliver employment, training and community services,” Mr Coulton said.

“This is an Aboriginal owned notfor-profit assisting both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people, including through their hospitality traineeships

at the fabulous Wilay Café, where we were treated to some delicious food,” he added.

Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, he added, was keen to visit some other initiatives aimed at improving the lot of our first Australians.

“We also met with Wiradjuri Elder, Riverbank Frank Doolan at Apollo House, where he works at LeaderLife Dubbo with Founder and CEO Joh Leader, growing community and holistically supporting people in Dubbo’s Apollo Estate.

“LeaderLife’s programs include social enterprise such as their lime farm at Narromine, where participants produce excellent lime-based products,” Mr Coulton said.

State’s farmers push for underground powerlines in the bush

WITH the State and Federal Government’s new renewables push, more and more power lines are being planned in rural areas. NSW Farmers have recently welcomed a Parliamentary Inquiry into under-grounding powerlines, calling it a win for commonsense and community safety.

Multiple renewable energy projects proposed or under construction in regional areas would require new power lines to connect them to the grid, Energy Transition Working Group Chair Reg Kidd said, but too often landholders were being ignored by the big developers.

“We support a robust inquiry, because it will find that there are places where under-grounding

wires is a win-win for production and community amenity that has not been addressed to date,” Mr Kidd said.

“Until now under-grounding has been ignored or dismissed as too expensive, not because of a cost/ benefit analysis, but rather through the lack of will to fully investigate the impacts of huge infrastructure on rural communities.

“There has been a lot of just drawing lines on maps and justifying route selection in order to minimise cost and get onto the next project, and the real impacts of above-ground infrastructure have not been assessed, and this is what this inquiry will reveal.”

While proponents said overhead powerlines were cheaper than run-

ning lines underground, Mr Kidd said, those claims did not stack up when compared to the damage caused by bushfires.

According to a Wollongong University study, there was strong evidence the consequences of fires caused by transmission were worse than fires from other causes, and that fires caused by electrical faults were more prevalent and burned larger areas during elevated fire danger conditions. The total economic cost of bushfires was set to almost double in the next 40 years, according to a conservative estimate from Deloitte, to about $1.3 billion per year by 2060. For context, the damage from the Black Summer fires alone was estimated at $230 billion.

“We have lost hundreds of people to these horrific bushfires, and the economic cost is in the hundreds of billions,” Mr Kidd said.

“We need to improve the understanding of disaster risks – such as from overhead transmission lines – and then collaborate and coordinate to build resilience and address the long-term costs of natural disasters.

“Underground power lines might cost more now, but we would argue that if they save lives and improve firefighting efforts then that is money well spent.”

Mr Kidd said balancing the cost of underground power lines against the potential risk and losses caused by overhead power lines was vital to getting a full under-

standing of the situation.

“The imposition of compulsory hosting of towers and wires that severely impact operations on many properties and diminish their value can be addressed through thoughtful planning, including underground placement where appropriate,” Mr Kidd said.

“Put simply, we have heard from a number of members that they believe they are being asked to accept what would never be considered for city residents.

“We need an urgent remedy for the planning mistakes of the past and said there must be greater consideration of the lifetime costs and benefits of undergrounding power lines from the outset of every project to protect communities.”

FOCUS ON FLETCHERS

From no experience to a Cert III

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY IN August this year, 18-yearold Alexis Moult will have worked at Fletcher International Exports for one year.

The former Dubbo College Delroy Campus student had been living in Queensland before returning to the central west to land a role with one of Dubbo’s biggest employers.

“Covid stopped us from coming back for a long time, and then we couldn’t get through by road because of the floods near the border; a section of the road got up to two metres!”

Alexis works in an area involved in the logistics of processed meats.

“I work in the back, where, once the meat goes through the sealing machine, I pack it into boxes and send the boxes off to load out which is where they’re put on the trucks to

then be sent for export.”

When first starting out at Fletchers, Alexis had no previous work history and found the mentoring system employed at the company very supportive.

“When I first came here, I had no job before this, and they still took me. Typically, when you start, you’re inducted by a supervisor, and you become a trainee then they take you up to your work area to show you how to do the job and when you’re working there’s always a supervisor for each area to help you if you need it.

“First, they’ll just start you on the packing part and then you can move up and learn your knives. You don’t always stay in the one spot; you do get to move around and experience different things. You can also get a lot of certificates working here. I’m going

for my Cert II in meat handling now and next year in August I start my Cert III.” Working at Fletchers means Alexis is working alongside and getting to know many people from around the world.

“It is interesting learning about other cultures, but also when you’re in the lunchroom you see what other people eat as well. It’s like a United Nations,” she said.

“If other young people like me are looking for work, I’d say give Fletchers a go.

Fletchers has a nice, kind culture and they explain and help you to do your job. They don’t just put you in one place and expect you to know what you’re doing. It doesn’t matter if you come here with no skills or experience, they’ll help you.”

NSW Farmers: don’t cut bush services to balance State budget BUDGET repair of the state’s ballooning financial hole should not come at the expense of critical productivity and biosecurity measures, NSW Farmers have warned.

With the NSW Treasurer Daniel Mookhey recently revealing that the state’s finances were in trouble, NSW Farmers CEO Pete Arkle said there was a concern that regional and rural spending could be on the chopping block to balance the books.

Mr Arkle instead urged the government not to reduce road repair or biosecurity responses, which were critical both to the rural economy and the state’s productivity.

“There’s always the fear that regional and rural spending gets cut when times are tough, but we’re saying agriculture is too important to face the chop,” Mr Arkle said.

“Farmers are used to operating on pretty tight margins at the best of times, but we’re feeling the same pressure of interest rate rises and soaring costs for fuel, electricity and fertiliser,” he added.

Spending on biosecurity activity and pest control would be essential over the next six months, Mr Arkle said, with more and more farmers questioning whether public land managers were being good neighbours.

“As an industry that produces food for families, we can’t afford to go backwards, so we really need to be prioritised to make sure domestic food production can continue.

“Regardless of the budget position, there are important things government needs to spend money on, and we want to see strong leadership to support farmers and country communities.”

Mr Arkle singled-out the $334 million Regional Roads Fund and the $390 million Regional Emergency Road Repair Fund as vital programs that should not be scrapped, and said there was a wealth of evidence that investing in agricultural research and development delivered big dividends.

“I agree we need to be smarter about how we spend money, but let’s not forget that roads are in dire need of repair right across the state, and there’s no point growing food if you can’t get it from farm gate to dinner plate,” Mr Arkle said.

“We also know the enormous drag biosecurity breaches have on farm productivity and the state economy, so we cannot pull back from protecting this vital sector and the work of these government agencies,” he concluded.

WHEELERS ARE

STILL DEALING!

H

June 29-July 5, 2023 Dubbo Photo News

with call-out to support local traders

By DAVID DIXON

ardworking local businesses in Wheeler’s Lane want all Dubbo to know: “We’re still open for business!”

Long-running roadworks in the area has seen trade drop dramatically for many of these proudly independent retailers, regular customers seemingly unaware they’re still doing their best – making a living; serving their communities; and providing employment to dozens of Dubbo workers.

Trouble started when scantily-announced roadworks closed half the road with media ads stating that ‘Wheelers Lane is closed’ leading customers up the garden path, Karyl-Lee Callaghan from Magnolia Nursery and Little Garden Shop, explained.

“Our trade went to zero overnight; we had no trade for most of the first week, people just thought we were closed… but it’s just a detour,” she said.

“Then I heard the radio announcement, and I realised people thought the whole lane was closed, now the ads have gone to ‘The northern lanes are open’, it’s now gone back to somewhere in between,” she said.

While early winter is traditionally a slow time for the nursery, it’s not long before custom picks up, but the roadworks are

on for at least another two months, Karyl-Lee explained.

“I’ve lost plenty of trade, and the bareroot roses and trees start coming in now for regulars; we’re pleading with people to use the detour and try and support us.

“The work is going until September, my big worry is Stage II and what they’re planning for that, when they begin rebuilding the surface of the southern lane,” she added.

Manager of the Farmer’s Bake Place, Andie Ayling, tells a similar story: custom dropping dramatically on their artisan sour-doughs, from the start of the roadworks, with many regulars unaware they are still open for business.

“We definitely saw numbers of 50 per cent and below, this week has been a little bit worse, it’s been very quiet,” she said.

“We’ve had quite a few customers come in, and say, ‘We didn’t know you were open!’,” she added.

Having reduced the numbers worked by their casuals, Andie emphasised that the business is still at their regular trade.

“We just want our customers to know we are still doing normal hours, we’re trading just as we usually do,” she said.

The news has been worse from Karleen

Charters from the Magnolia Café, who reflected on a recent early opening without one solitary breakfast sold.

“It did, honestly, I’ve gone from 15 staff down to two–three, that’s a reflection of our sales,” she said.

“I’ve lost 50 to 75 per cent of the trade, and the work still has months to go,” she added.

She said that the impact has been the same on other local business she has

spoken to, but added that support from locals can get them through this tough time.

“I know people don’t like to be put out of their way, with detours and the like, but it’s not just the business, it’s the staff,” she said.

“I just want people to know that we’re still open, with the same accessibility and the same parking, nothing has changed in that regard,” Karleen concluded.

Healthy debate is the key to Betty and Keith’s 66 golden years

By DAVID DIXON CELEBRATING their 66th wedding anniversary recently, Betty and Keith Croxon’s long-lasting and happy marriage is a testament to the benefits of a bit of healthy debate.

The couple held their own anniversary dinner at the Devil’s Hollow Brewery at Blue Ridge last week, after a giant family get-together the week before.

“We had a family event, a bigger do on the long weekend, with all the kids and grand-kids,” Betty explained.

“But every anniversary, we’ve always had a meal, just for ourselves, a quiet dinner, which we held last week,” she added.

The couple met at the Masonic Ball in Coonabarabran when Betty was just 16, marrying in 1957 at the Methodist Church in the town.

“We had a property, mixed farming, at Coonabarabran for 30 to 40 years, and then we retired to live in Narromine.

“We had five children – Pauline, Tony, Neil, Stephen, and David… now Keith’s in a retirement home at Dubbo, while I’m still at Narromine,” Betty explained.

She said that, even among the most affectionate of couples, you must expect a few differences of opinion over the decades.

“When I first got married, that’s what one of the senior members of my family said: ‘Well, how boring would it be, if you didn’t have a few fights?’,” Betty said, laughing.

Contributed by TONY GERAGHTY, ROTARY CLUB OF DUBBO SOUTH LAST year our club, Rotary Club of Dubbo South, was approached by the Terrigal club to find out if we would like to be involved in their project of importing and distributing Shelterbags throughout Australia as support for those sleeping rough.

The bags are made in South Africa and are lightweight, durable, weatherproof and portable as well as relatively inexpensive.

I approached the other clubs in Dubbo to come on board with this project and they agreed.

The issues we faced initially were that we didn't have any idea of the demand and needed an organisation to distribute them and somewhere to warehouse them.

We subsequently made contact with Orana Support Services (OSS) who were aware of the possible demand and were prepared to both store and distribute them.

CEO of OSS Tina Reynolds was very enthusiastic, and it was determined that we should buy one for each Rotarian in Dubbo and, as a result, we ordered 150 and these were delivered over the weekend by one of our memBack, Debbie McCreadie (Rotary Dubbo West), Tina Reynolds (Orana Support Services), Tony Geraghty (Rotary Dubbo South) and Lorna Breeze (Rotary Dubbo Macquarie), middle, Andrew McKay (Rotary Club of Dubbo) and David bers Peter Scott and handed over to Tina and OSS at their office last week.

Local government wants to The Real Estate Chat with Karen Chant from Chant and Co keep say in big developments Three Real Estate Metrics

L

ocal Government NSW (LGNSW) has expressed concerns over the potential loss of community-led planning following a government announcement.

The Minns State Government declared that housing developments exceeding $75 million, and that meet a 15 per cent threshold, would be expedited through the “state significant development” pathway.

This new route sidesteps local councils and planning panels, leading to apprehension about the erosion of local democratic processes, LGNSW says.

President Darriea Turley AM was inundated with concerns from councils following the announcement. However, she obtained a commitment from the government that the local government sector would play a role in developing the framework to tackle the housing crisis.

State Planning Minister Paul Scully contacted Ms Turley to ensure the involvement of councils in the creation of the new framework. Ms Turley emphasised that this is vital to preventing local communities from losing their say in strategic land use decisions that affect their local areas.

“Local councils will not be

When it comes to selling your home, it’s important to be abreast of the current market conditions long before you list your property for sale. Here are a few metrics every seller should know.

Median property price The median sale price indicates how much properties in a suburb are currently selling for. This data can be found on real estate portals such as realestate. com.au and Domain. It’s a great starting point if you’re looking to determine the current value of similar properties in your suburb.

Days on market Days on market is the number of days between when the property is advertised for sale and when it actually sells. Low days on market for your suburb indicates property is selling quickly in your area. High days on market might indicate there is greater supply than demand.

The auction clearance rate sidelined, but instead be welcomed into the fold to help develop the new framework,” assured Minister Scully.

The LGNSW will advocate for the fulfilment of this promise, aiming to preserve councils’ strategic planning powers and resist any attempts by the State Government to override them.

While the local government sector supports a flexible and streamlined planning process, it strongly opposes any government actions that might bypass council input. Ms Turley highlighted that these are community-informed plans,

designed to balance growth and development with the availability of infrastructure and local community on-boarding.

She also expressed concern over the State Government’s tendency to strip local councils of planning authority by labelling projects as ‘state significant’. While councils welcome increased push for affordable housing targets, they also demand that if developers receive a 30 per cent floorspace ratio bonus, the affordable housing provision should be a permanent arrangement, not just limited to 15 years.

Regardless of whether you’re selling your property via auction or private treaty, the clearance rate is an indicator of supply and demand. In a balanced market the clearance rate sits just above 60 per cent, meaning around two thirds of the properties sell on their auction day. Less than that can be an indicator demand is lessening, while higher is a sign buyers are keen to secure a property.

Why Sellers Choose Chant And Co In Dubbo TRUSTED ADVICE, EXCEPTIONAL RESULTS

A

s the financial year draws to a close, Karen Chant says it’s been a positive start for her new real estate venture, Chant and Co, which began operations in September of last year. Karen said she is “extremely grateful for the overwhelming support she has received, not only from family and friends, but also past clients, new clients and business professionals both within and outside of the real estate industry. I have been flattered by everyone’s generosity of spirit” Driven by a clear mission statement and guiding principles, Chant and Co strives to be highly respected within the Dubbo community because of their excellence, integrity and successes in real estate matters.

Karen’s objective is to create a boutique real estate business based on impeccable service, reliable advice and exceptional sales results.

She stated, “We know who we are and who we are not. We are not a transactional business – we do not aim to be the agency selling the greatest number of properties. We know we are a relationships and results business, and we aim to achieve the best result for our clients and do so with kindness, compassion and reassurance“. With 22 successful sales since November, Chant and Co are well on their way to realizing that vision. One recent seller commended Karen saying, “Karen’s knowledge, experience and skills in the real estate business are second to none. Very hands on and does deliver a result. Karen has sold three properties for us over the years and never ceases to amaze.”

In an exciting announcement, Karen shares hares that Lesa Towart will be joining Chant and nd Co in July. Lesa is a highly experienced Licensed ensed Real Estate Agent who has been active in n the industry since 1996. While Lesa will primarily marily support Karen in administrative matters,, she may also be present at open homes from m time to time. Karen believes that Lesa’s employment aligns perfectly with the business’s goals. Lesa’s brilliant administrative skills will contribute to the continued delivery of exceptional service to Chant and Co’s clients.

Meticulous, diligent, highly organized,

and kind, Lesa defies a single job title due to the variety of tasks she will perform. However, Karen considers her primarily the “Manager of Smooth Operations,” responsible for ensuring seamless behind-the-scenes processes.

When questioned about the future market conditions, Karen admits it’s a challenge to make accurate predictions. She explains, “While it is difficult to foresee the future, we can analyze the historical performance of the Dubbo market as a predictor. Looking back over the past few decades, Dubbo has demonstrated remarkable stability. We do not experience the extreme highs and lows seen in metropolitan areas. With rising interest rates, I am hopeful that Dubbo will be more resilient to their impact compared to the capital cities, thanks to our market’s relative affordability, limited supply of vacant residential land, and low levels of residential listings.”

As Chant and Co wraps up its first financial year of operation, Karen Chant looks ahead with optimism and enthusiasm. With a strong foundation built on exceptional service, trusted advice and a commitment to client relationships, Chant and Co has already made significant strides in the Dubbo real estate market. Karen’s hands-on approach, coupled with the addition of Lesa Towart to the team, ensures that the agency’s dedication to delivering outstanding results will continue to flourish. Chant and Co remains poised to navigate future challenges while providing topnotch service and making a lasting impact in the real estate industry.

Indians: world’s first mass-produced bikes, with a style all of their own

BY DAVID DIXON As this proud owner, Mike Wallace knows, there’s something about an Indian motorbike, that you just can’t beat.

sachusetts, by the Hendee Manufacturing Company, the Indian was one of the world’s first high-profile mass-produced models.

Without the showy bravado of the Harley Davidsons, they instead embody an understated masculinity and menace, that made them one of the most iconic of motorcycles brands of the 20th century.

Showing their technological advantage, Indians famously took the first three places in the 1911 Isle of Man Tourist Trophy.

Although it wasn’t the actual model that Marlon Brando rode in the classic biker film, The Wild One — which was in fact, a 650CC Triumph Firebird — Indians are a classic marque from the definitive era of American motorbikes.

YOUR STARS ARIES: You’ll take advantage of the next holidays to get a few projects out of the way, both at work and at home. Don’t forget to rest and make time for yourself.

TAURUS: This week is all about fun! You’ll have plenty of opportunities to celebrate in one way or another. Now is the time to choose what you’ll be doing on vacation; the choice won’t be easy. Be careful not to overlook certain responsibilities.

GEMINI: Change is needed! You can’t put it off any longer. You’ll start a business project or look for a better job. It may also be time to update the decor in your home.

CANCER: You’ll attend training courses or conferences and participate in negotiations at work.

If you’re in a relationship, your partner must pull their weight. You can’t wait on them hand and foot. With sympathy and understanding, you’ll be able to change bad habits at home.

LEO: Holidays are fast approaching! However, you may not be able to disconnect from work because certain tasks may require you to check in every so often. If you’re single, you’ll have to wait after a first date before getting back in touch.

VIRGO: You’ll tie up all the loose ends that have been bothering you and finish everything you’ve been putting off. Don’t improvise all of your next holiday. Some tourist spots sell out quickly, so make your reservations now.

LIBRA: You’ll want to spend some time at home. You’ll fill your days off with landscaping projects, like redoing the flower bed or other fun activities. This could be how your next vacation pans out.

SCORPIO: Travel is on the horizon! Always make a list before you go grocery shopping.

Otherwise, you may have to go back a few times. You’ll be easy to talk to, but some people may be stubborn.

SAGITTARIUS: You love to travel and don’t want to miss out on anything over the next month.

Make a budget so you can do everything you want! You must coordinate with work, family and your significant other to have your dream holidays.

CAPRICORN: You’ll be recognised for your sense of initiative. At work and in your social life, you’ll create opportunities and exploit them to their full potential. You’ll be bursting with energy during exciting activities.

AQUARIUS: You may flip-flop on what to do before taking your next break. You have some anxiety about the cost of living. Don’t forget that happiness is worth its weight in gold. Love will creep into your life when you least expect it.

PISCES: You’ll be reunited with loved ones. It’s also time to slow down at work. For example, try taking a longer lunch break to socialise with colleagues, employees, bosses or associates

The luckiest signs this week:

Pisces, Aries and Taurus.

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

ADVERTORIAL

FROM THE VES BOOKSHELVES ] By DAVE PANKHURST, The Book Connection

WE have all become aware of the changes around the western region that are reflected in the commercial activity in towns and cities. We see some smaller towns declining in banks, retail stores and technical services. My family came to Dubbo nearly sixty years ago and the next few decades saw growth or stability in the three small towns within fifty kilometres of the farm but since then they have declined. Cafes, small general stores, chemists, even hotels have closed down. In Dubbo the challenge is when one drives around the CBD seeing vacant shops previously occupied by commercial, service or financial style traders.

The challenge comes from the change in high profile entities – major national traders and the internet.

Mark Brownley is the author of “The Things Big Businesses Do – And what you can learn from the big end of town.” He shows what any business, big or small, can learn about getting bigger, stronger and more competitive and more efficient simply by focusing on how big businesses operate and why they are successful. It is easy to get into business and there is a lot of advice on how to do it but it is much harder to stay in business and there normally is not nearly as much advice on how to do this. Written in a concise format with short chapters focussing key subjects he covers issues such as inventing something in product development that gets customers excited. Others follow covering: Don’t rely on research – ask the customers what they want, surround yourself with good advice, become data driven because numbers don’t lie, stay close to your people, lead with conviction, take risks and trial new products, you don’t need perfect solutions, passion is the fuel that drives success, aim to be the best, and many more.

“Family Business” by Denis Tracey covers stories from Australian Businesses and

Being In Small Business the people who operate them. He writes that every day we are reminded that the world is changing faster than ever before and that businesses face unprecedented challenges.

Tracey discusses the benefits and challenges that family businesses are involved in as well as identifying events affecting the family’s happiness, welfare and stability.

Several leading business people describe how they have capitalised on their inherent strengths, and how they have recognised, confronted and overcome inevitable dangers. Comments and contributions from employees, accountants, bankers, lawyers and human relations experts are included. Through the wisdom and experience of these various owners and supporters, readers can discover ideas and solutions which they can apply to their own family and business lives.

During our family’s first decade in a bookstore I participated in a business trip to USA organised by Lend Lease, the owners of the City Centre where we were then located. It followed their routine from Los Angeles via various cities across the country to New York and the focus was on shopping mall sites. Bookstores were common and it was a wonderful opportunity to discuss business with their owners. We were free to move around the local communities and visits to independent bookstores on street sites occurred. The decision as a result of that USA trip was to get out of a shopping mall, and do not be a franchisee.

Garry Williamson is the author of “The Essential Guide to Franchising in Australia – Fact and Fiction” in which he describes how a franchise works, how to pick a franchise business, what to do if you are an unhappy franchisee and other

issues. We have now been booksellers for over 40 years having chosen to become independent in premises which the family owns.

A real challenge for any small business is the Retail Giants.

Fundamentally they demand from suppliers the lowest cost of goods which means that suppliers have to charge small businesses premium rates to cover that deficiency. It is a worldwide issue and authors Taylor and Archer have written “Up Against the Wal-Marts” which describes strategies for small business can still prosper in the shadow of their Australian counter-parts. The authors relate how to meet the challenges that come from these major chain store businesses. They describe the strategies on how to combat cut-throat pricing, regain customer focus, identify and seize market niches and much more.

They list ten survival strategies that help you compete effectively and stay focused on the challenges.

Danny Caine, the owner of a street front bookstore in Kansas USA wrote “How to Resist Amazon and Why” in which he fights for local economics, data privacy, local employment opportunities. He shows how Amazon’s ruthless discount strategies mean authors and publishers can lose money when they focus on confronting a particular form of competition. Amazon’s owner is one of the richest people in the world yet his workers suffer. In the U.K it closed three warehouses and seven delivery sites, putting 1,300 jobs at risk yet other warehouse sites are reopening.

The major challenge to shop-front traders is the internet sales businesses. The idea of shopping “on-line” appeals to so many

people – one impact in particular has seen shops in small country towns fade away, so much so that some places have little left in their main streets. People who buy on the internet and not shop at local locations vote for the decline of their communities.

Brad Stone has written “Amazon Unbound” sub-titled Jeff Bezos and the Invention of a Global Empire.”

Over the last decade Amazon has expanded very extensively, inventing many products like Alexa and disrupting countless industries while its valuable has soared to over a trillion dollars. Jeff Bezos’s empire, once occupying a garage, now spans the globe. We live in a world run, supplied and controlled by Amazon and its founder. When we look at the USA economy under dramatic challenge, and Australia’s inflation and financial challenges, we have to ask what affect has Amazon had in these circumstances? How many small towns in our state have declined in local services and supplies?

Successive governments in this country have been quite happy to have in place, incomes and other taxes for personnel and other services. Yet we read how there are many major operations that have their financial controls set up in low income tax countries. Some pay their top executives a million dollars per annum in wages. The power of those organisations extract so much benefit from communities yet they fail to meet their responsibilities – small towns suffer, regional cities face the challenges and it becomes necessary for those of us in small businesses to be effective in handling the circumstances. Reading, thinking, acting to pursue positive goals are necessary to counter that confrontation. And the pleasure of meeting folk who come into our shop is an example of the social life as well as earning a living can be wonderful.

Enjoy your browsing, Dave Pankhurst

Dave Tink is still keen to pass-on cricketing tips

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

LOCAL batting legend, Dave Tink, has an extra smile on his face this week with Astley Cup centenary celebrations and the smell of Ashes cricket in his nostrils.

The teenage prodigy who grew-up playing with Dennis Cox, cousins and brothers, and in the shadow of the immortal Neville McCullagh with Coalbaggie Cricket Club, went on to represent CHS, NSW, and Australian Country, and had a stint with Randwick in the Sydney First Grade competition.

Now he is back doing what he loves best – passing-on skills you a new crop of youngsters.

Dave played most of his cricket with Coalbaggie in the Dawson Cup (Sundays) and Dubbo High, Colts, and Rugby, in the Whitney Cup, and was named Dubbo Cricketer of the Year on more than one occasion, so he has plenty of knowledge to impart.

He is a qualified coach, and there are many former teammates at Macquarie, a club he took into first grade in the 1980s, who would attest to his ability to take a player where they are at, and pass-on skills to make them the best they can be.

“I have been coaching at the Dave Martin Nets in North Dubbo for the past six weeks,” Dave said.

“I have had about half a dozen kids coming along; I am especially keen to coach those who are just starting-out as well as others with more advanced skills who are keen to represent at a higher level,” the former Dubbo High School cricket (and rugby league) captain said.

If you are interested in learning from Dave, or would just like to chat about all things willow and leather, give him a call on 0427 873 361

Young bowlers roll onto Dubbo greens, for CHS Western finals

Danny battles world’s best in US Contributed by DUBBO CYCLE CLUB ONE local bike rider, just keepson getting better…

Danny Barber from Dubbo Cycle Club, is not only a multiple national title holder, Australian record-holder and Oceania champion twice over, he has now cemented his standing in the rough-and-tumble world of international track-sprinting, recently taking-on world class riders in the United States.

Danny has travelled to America to compete in three carnivals at the “T-Town” (Trexlertown) Velodrome; the Valley Preferred Cycling Centre in Pennsylvania, near New York.

On the famous outdoor 330-metre concrete track; Danny rubbed shoulders with teammates and riders from the US, Canada, Spain, New Zealand, South Africa, Jamaica, and Trinidad. The experience also provided training opportunities in track, gym, and road, as part of the Australian Development program.

First event was the US Festival of speed (UCI C2), where Danny competed in the Sprint event. He qualified third fastest in a time of 10.384, and won through to the Bronze Medal ride-off before slipping and crashing on a wet track and was unable to resume riding, ultimately finishing in fourth place in the classification.

The next event was the US GP (UCI C2); this involved Danny in the Kierin competition in which he won his heat to go straight into the semi-finals. He qualified through these to make the final. (In both his heat and semi-final, he finished in front of the US Elite Kieran Champion). Danny finished fifth in the final.

Racing and training were also interrupted for a day or two, due to smoke pollution from the Canadian bushfires. The big week was five days of racing in the UCI C1 ‘T-Town Summer games.

Danny got sick on the Tuesday before the first day’s racing (Wednesday).

He was so sick, he had to pullout of all racing on the Wednesday, which is disappointing for dedicated sprinter. This would have been an opportunity to race as an Under 23 and perform in the Team Sprint.

On the Thursday, he was still sick but was desperate to race. He still managed to qualify fourth fastest in the Elite

Men’s sprint qualifying. He won through to the Bronze Medal ride-off where he came-up against Alejandro Martinez Chorro, who took third-place at the 2022 World Championships and raced second at the 2023 European Championships in the Kilometre Time Trial.

Danny, however, defeated him to take the Bronze Medal; a fantastic result. Despite battling illness over the five days of the summer games, Danny made every Kierin final and qualified in the top four in the sprint Flying 200m.

In the Elite Teams sprint, Danny partnered with James Brister and Ryan Elliot where they, as

a team, managed to race second in a time of 1:02.323. It is also worth noting that Danny has ridden the same distance 6/100ths slower on his own over the kilometre distance, and the team only 0.229 from taking the win.

Part Two of the Valley Super Week, had Danny again mixing it with the super-competitive group with a Sixth in the Keirin and Sprint events. As Danny is still very young, he was able to contest the Under 23 Division and was second in the Keirin; giving an excellent account of himself by being just beaten by Sam Gallagher who was a dual Silver medallist at the Junior World Championships in 2019.

Top finishes for Jason, Emily, and Sidney, at Newcastle cycle meet Contributed by DUBBO CYCLE CLUB THREE top local riders recently headed to Newcastle for the annual Hunter Junior Tour, scoring some spectacular results for the Dubbo Cycle Club.

Competitors included Emily Hines in the U/17 Women’s Division and, in the U/13 Boys Division, Dubbo was represented by Sidney Pickering and Cooper Farr.

The tour was hosted over Saturday and Sunday and consisted of a Time Trial, Criterium, Prologue (short time trial) and Road Race.

Dubbo Club President, Jason Farr, has paid particular attention to the preparation of the juniors this year, and it is resulting in some wonderful performances.

In the Stage One 5km Individual Time Trial, Sidney and Cooper hit the podium with Sidney taking second by a mere seven seconds, with Cooper Farr only nine seconds back in third.

Emily Hines in her race was up-against some super-talented riders and managed to secure sixth place at 1.08 minutes, behind the winner and hometown rider, Hayley Dell from Newcastle.

In the Stage Two Criterium, Cooper snatched the win with an awesome sprint to the line with Sidney not far off-the-pace in fourth place. Emily also secured a superb result with a great sprint in to finish in third place in the U/17 Girls Division.

In the Stage Three 2.3km Prologue on

BOTH Club Dubbo and the Macquarie Bowling Clubs, have been awash with bowlers from all over NSW this week.

This is because the Combined High School’s bowlers have been commanding the greens with their finals today – while this weekend, it’s the Open Gender Pennants Finals.

The partnership between Club Dubbo and CHS has been particularly productive, with the Western Region team the current State Champions.

Club Dubbo first hosted the event in 2007 where the local Western side were victorious and the region has won four titles overall – 2004, 2007, 2017 and 2021 – Bowls Manager Anthony Brown recently told Dubbo Photo News, adding that there there is a huge pool of talent.

“The current Australian side has four players who have come through these Championships, and 26 former CHS players are currently in the NSW Open and U25 teams,” he said.

“We have many school-age players coming through the ranks, and this week, teams from Coonabarabran, Mudgee, Dubbo, and other western schools have been challenging themselves against their peers.

“Many of these have already tasted senior bowls, and a few are just back from the Australian Open Championships on the Gold Coast,” he added.

He revealed that two Dubbo players that have been showing their skills are Zac Miller and Peak Hill’s rising-star, Cooper Dart, who both play at West Dubbo.

“With over 80 players plus parents and families in town, the entire community reaps the benefits. We have a lot of local businesses and bowls lovers who appreciate the skills these young athletes have and that is always very encouraging,” Anthony said.

Another big tournament, the NSW Open Gender No. 5 Pennant Finals, will bring-in more than 500 bowlers, officials, and spectators, who go to it for three days of enjoyable but very competitive matches.

Eight teams will play at Club Dubbo and the same number at Dubbo Macquarie.

Club Dubbo:  Section One: Cardiff, Merimbula, Northmead, Pittwater RSL  Section Two: Leeton Soldiers, Campbelltown City, Sawtell, Grandview’s Dubbo Macquarie:  Section Three: Corrimal, Birrong, Condong, Quirindi  Section Four: Forster, Ettalong, Aberdeen, Parkes Railway

the youngsters, but Cooper and Sidney rode extremely well with Cooper relishing the conditions sprinting clear of the field to take a fantastic win with Sidney crossing the line in seventh place. In the U/17 Girls, Emily repeated her sixth place to secure sixth overall on general classification. This was a gruelling event for the young Dubbo rider amongst a very tough field in which she made and excellent account of herself over the weekend.

For the U/13 Boys, Sidney captured second overall in the general classification, with Cooper finishing right behind in third.

These efforts gave Dubbo Cycle Club two riders on the podium; a fantastic local result. Congratulations also go to President Jason, who has worked hard with the juniors to bring home this superb result for the Club.

Castlereagh Youth League thriller; classic game goes down to the wire!

By GEOFF MANN

THE very sizeable crowd that packed out Narromine’s Cale Oval on Sunday for the Youth League Grand Final, were treated to an absolute mail-biter between the local Jets and the Binnaway Bombshells.

The title hung in the balance with less than a minute on the clock, when the Jets scored a try to lock the game up and then calmly converted to bring supporters flooding onto the ground.

Castlereagh League President, Bryson Luff, summed up an incredible day.

“Going into the match, the Binnaway Bombshells were at very long odds to get a positive outcome from the game, but their performance in the decider certainly was not in tune with that pre-game sentiment!” he said.

The opening exchanges saw the Bombshells dominate territorially, but they could not breach a determined Jets defence and as often happens, it was a breakout try to the Jets that opened the scoring in the 13th minute. Winger Dane Burns crossed out wide to score what turned into a converted try – 6-0.

The game then returned to the pre-try scenario, with the Bombshells dominating field position and eventually they breached the Narromine defence with a converted try in the final minute of the half to lock it up at 6-6 at the

break.

Binnaway second rower Sonny-Bill Walker scored his second try for the Bombshells two minutes into the second half and with the conversion successful the visitors led 12-6.

The Jets replied shortly after when half back Jamari Clarke stepped through the defence from close range to tie it all up and then just a few minutes later they went to the lead after centre Zac Hignett sliced through out wide to make it 18-12.

With the two teams hammering each other, a third try to Walker made it 18-all and the crowd were up and shouting.

With just seven minutes remaining, it appeared an unlikely Bombshells’ victory was on the cards when five-eighth Blake Kuras crossed to give the travellers a 2218 buffer.

Both teams threw everything into the final minutes. Would the Jets blast off or the spirited Binnaway boys pull off. Bombshell?

One teams celebrations were underway; the other’s despairingly shot down when player of the match, Jamari Clarke speared over for his second try in the dying seconds bringing it down to the conversion. Harry McPherson slotted the goal from in front to secure Narromine a memorable 24 to 22 premiership victory!

“Whilst Narromine won the premiership, Binnaway most certainly also covered themselves in

Lincoln County International Raceway heating up for more Karting action FOLLOWING the success of the recent TEKA Endurance racing weekend, Dubbo’s Lincoln County International Raceway is preparing for three more major meetings.

Club President, Frank Cross, has been around the motor sports scene for most of his life, and is loving being back with the Karts after devoting muck energy to sedan-class speedway.

“Dubbo is a favourite destination for the hundred-plus drivers and support crew that will arrive in town to fight it out on track for the coveted State Titles and our Southern Stars and local championships,” Frank said.

“There’s no better place to be, than trackside to watch the karts roaring around and enjoying a chicken schnitty,” Frank laughed!

Reigning state title-holders, ‘Maverick Kart #58’ made a return for Enduro event, defending their title won at the same event last year and in the main championship ‘Dynamite #27’ went into the event outright leaders, and faced stiff competition from the top 10 leaders.

TEKA is proud to have had Penrite and the Roylance Tractor Replacements as their major sponsors of the Enduro.

The Enduro commenced with morning practice sessions on the Sat followed by four hour sessions later in the day and on Sunday The first qualifying session saw the top 16 teams separated by less than a second, with only 0.045 seconds separating first and third place, with DNT Motorsport #18 taking the pole position.

The second stage of qualifying,

saw Maverick Kart team #58 taking pole by over half a second. It was a hard-fought battle behind them, with second to 15th positions separated by just one solitary second. Both sessions showed that karters really had to be on the money to be up the front.

With the tarmac warming-up in the winter sun, Saturday’s fourhour race was a very tight affair.

The first hour, saw of the race saw the top four to five teams jostling for position, before they started to separate.

With endurance racing, it’s a team event that requires all the teams’ drivers to remain consistently fast and reliable for the whole race. With the series running three classes, the racing was

tight in all events.

In B-Grade, I’m in the Right #21, showed the most consistent pace and took first place ahead of Topstep Racing # 45 and F.O.B Racing #76.

In A-Grade, a very tight race had the lead changing throughout, with the BMCM Racing #29, showing that they had the pace and won the class, with Yello Racing #3 finishing second with RPG Racing #90, making last lap last corner overtake to take third place from Profan #12.

In Pro Grade, the racing was intense from the start, but Maverick Kart #58 ended-up controlling the pace, finishing first overall, followed by DNT Motorsport #18, and El Toro Racing #97.

Sunday felt even cooler, which didn’t help the aches and pains from the prior days racing. The teams lined up on the grid for the four-and-a-half-hour race, which was another close battle.

In B-Grade, the positions were changed with Topstep #45 coming to the front and holding on to win the race and also the weekend overall result for B-Grade. I’m in the right #21 finished third on the Sunday, but held on for a second overall for the weekend, with F.O.B Racing finishing second on Sunday and third overall.

In A-Grade, the racing was again very tight with BMCM Racing coming out on top on the Sunday and also taking-out the overall result for the weekend.

Yello Racing #3 were quick all weekend and finished third on Sunday and, with their consistent results, finished second overall for the weekend. Profan #12 finished second on Sunday and third for the weekend.

In Pro Grade, and in the overall results, DNT Motorsport #18 finished third and second overall for the weekend. Dynamite Racing #27 had a comeback day on Sunday and finished second which gave them third overall for the weekend.

But the State Title was once again taken-out by the reigning title-holders Maverick Kart #58, who were consistently fast and reliable all weekend, earning their well-deserved place on the top step of the podium.

“TEKA would like to thank Dubbo Kart club for preparing an amazing facility and allowing us to use the track and facilities for the weekend,” a spokesperson said.

“Thank you to all the officials who officiated the event volunteering their time for our event to run and thanks to Esprusso for keeping us fed and hydrated throughout the weekend,” they added.

“TEKA would also like to thank Penrite, the premium oil supplier, for sponsoring the round,” they concluded.

Taneka gets women’s rugby league call-up for the mighty Eels

By GEOFF MANN WOMEN’S rugby league is one of those traditionally-male dominated sports that has really taken-off in recent years.

One young sportsperson who has made her name in the golden west, is about to run out for Parramatta in the expanded National Women’s Rugby league.

The all-rounder has come through the western region pathways program in both league and union and starred with CYMS and the Macquarie Raidettes in the Group XI League Tag. After literally tackling league in the Western Rams competition, Taneka Todhunter’s talent was spotted by NSWRL scouts who recruited her to the Roosters.

Her cool head, fast feet, and toughness, saw her selected for NSW U’19s against Queensland last year. Earlier this

season, the versatile hooker/half was named captain of the NSW Gems who played in the NRL Indigenous Round.

Interestingly, Taneka was part of the Newcastle Knights team in the NSWRL alongside Bathurst flyer Jakaya Whitfield. The pair had been dabbling in rugby union in the Central West before both chose league.

Coincidentally, Taneka and Jakaya, will be on opposite teams when the NSWRL kicks off next month – Taneka in the blue and gold of the eels, and Jakaya, the Australian Sevens Rugby flyer nicknamed “Winx”, in the Tigers’ traditional orange and black.

It is extraordinary to track the sporting careers of these young ladies, products of our historically-strong rugby league nursery, now proving so for women players, as well!

Three top bowlers, show-off their skills

Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’

THREE top local bowlers showcased their latent talent in a skilful display on Sunday.

Mick Strawhan, Frank Armstrong, and Matt Quill, grabbed the advantage against the equally-talented team of Pat Sherwin, Therese Gaio, and Mike Twohill, with an amazing tally of 11 shots garnered over two ends in the second half.

The trio were in control throughout but that double-digit haul cemented a morning’s best 24-8 win.

Of the 41 bowlers who turnedup, there were a few who may have wished they had stayed in bed – just kidding!

Helene Emblen, Ken Whittaker, and Graham Ross, all found Shirley Marchant, Colin Teale, and Phil Knight, a lot tougher than expected. They took shots on only one end in the first eight, and could not stop Phil’s side from adding to their card throughout to clinch a solid 19-9 victory.

Di Cullen, Roger Sherwin, and Gordon Scott, won five early ends against Doc Livingston, Pete Bennison, and Karen Greenhalge, and

turned with 12 shots. They converted those into a 23-11 final score, with a couple of “fours” after the turnaround.

Mary Perry, Paul Wooldridge, and Pete Ruzans also led Ros Joseph, Ray Strawhan, and Al Andriske by three at the break, and used the misfortune of their opponents on the way home to claim a big six on 14 in the midst of taking another five ends; 21-10 was the final score, but the game was much closer than that statistic suggests!

A game of two-halves ensued between Leo Balstad, Ian Hum-

phries, and John Cole, who seemingly set-up a win with 11 shots in the first eight, but Sue McCauley, Allan Stratford, and Mel Giddings, then stepped-up a gear during the second half. The group were seemingly scoring freely to runaway with the win, 21-15. Coming from five shots down to six shots up; is definitely a great comeback effort!

Chris Castlehouse was the “swinger” when playing with Bryan O’Sullivan and Vicki Hummel, as well as Ruby Stockings and Trish Gosper. Her time with Sully and Vicki, was more productive,

racking-up a seven shot lead before sealing a 17-10 win in a much more even second eight.

Gavin Cullen, Greg Brown, and Col Cottee, seized all the opportunities given by Ron McCauley, Julie Brown, and Col Dover, using the multi-shot technique to lead by three at the break. They added another eight shots on five ends for a 17-10 final score.

Sundy bowls is a whole lot of fun, win or lose, and open to any bowler in Dubbo and surrounds.

CYMS 60-0 victory was a fitting way for two players to celebrate their 10th anniversary – captain Jarryn Powyer and versatile hooker/five-eighth Alex Bonham.
