The Most

Wuthering Heights

Camilla Ward and Sharon Quill ready to make their amazing recording with Samuel Johnson.

Day Ever

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

By JENET STEWART

W

hen we see those words, Wuthering Heights, we instinctively conjure up the lady with the quirky theatrical performance of the song and and her flowing red dress.

Well, this story has a little to do with that song but more to do with saving lives.

Saving lives of people with cancer to be specific.

Local ladies Camilla Ward and Sharon Quill made an amazing recording with Samuel Johnson. You may recall Samuel and his sister’s battles with cancer. The Johnson siblings founded the ‘Love Your Sister’ charity in 2012 with an aim to raise $10 million for cancer research. Since his sister’s passing Samuel has continued

with his fundraising, and visited Dubbo to encourage local businesses to be among the 1000 businesses to help provide Precision Medicine for cancer patients everywhere in Australia.

So how was Camilla and Sharon’s recording related you may ask? Through DCFM community radio, the ladies made their recording with Samuel at Camilla’s home. “We record the show every week at Camilla’s house, with a giant teddy bear to assist with sound bouncing. For a whole year, we have put out great results from this nook but this special show with Sam is going to be our last show at home.

After this recording, not only are we moving to a new time, but we’ll also be re-

cording at the DCFM station,” Sharon said.

The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever is an international event and this year was held in Dubbo at the Old Dubbo Gaol on July 30 through a generous donation

by Dubbo Regional Council. “Cam and I were dressed in our red tulle dresses for the Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever, the event where tickets were sold, and money raised goes to supporting the same local cancer trials and treatments that Sam’s charity, ‘Love Your Sister’, has donated 1.2 million dollars to,” Sharon explained.

The Establishment pop-up bar had free Red Kate Refreshers for participants, and a Wall of Love filled with names of loved ones who have passed. ‘Love Your Sis-

ter’ hearts were provided to participants, along with a special ‘Love Your Sister’ gift.

“Dr Mary Nushaj was our fabulous dance leader and instructor. She is a doctor in oncology at Dubbo Base and was in her red Kate dress/scrubs on the day,” Sharon said.

“Last year a dear friend died of a brain tumour and, in honour of her and other close family members who we have lost to cancer, Cam and I want to do one big fundraiser a year. We want Dubbo’s first Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever to be it,” Sharon proudly exclaimed.

ORANA MALL

Retailer Week OF THE

Happy 7th Birthday to JB HiFi! I

t’s hard to fathom that in August this year, JB HiFi Orana Mall store is celebrating seven years of trading!

“I sit back sometimes and think, ‘How has it been that long?’ because I’ve been here since we opened and it’s crazy to think seven years has passed, and we’ll probably be celebrating with a little team party,” store manager Belle McGuire said.

Known for all things gadget, phone, TV, music, gaming, home goods and more, there is always something in store which may surprise you. “A lot of people don’t seem to know that we’re a Telstra provider so we sell Telstra plans, plus we have a dedicated section where you can do that. JB HiFi

is also a mobile service provider which is powered by the Telstra network, too,” Belle explained.

Electric transportation vehicles are very hot right now and the store carries the most popular ranges in their rideable section. “We have Segway, Daxys, and Livall smart bikes and scooters, as well as all the accessories and replacement parts you’ll need. People just go mad over them… especially at Christmas, parents buy them for their kids and of course we advise safe usage, so we have helmets, seats, bike locks, etc; plus, a lot of people use them as an affordable way to get to work these days.”

JB Hi Fi’s extensive music section is legendary and carries an assortment of much-loved vinyl records

for new and old music.

“Vinyl is back in force, and we’ve got a large selection plus we offer JB HiFi Exclusives, which refer to a specific press of an album or a specific colour compared to the normal black one which another retailer might do… then we’ll have it in purple, for example.”

JB Australian Exclusives vinyl

currently on the shelves include Olivia Rodrigo’s vinyl album, GUTS in opaque magenta vinyl; Barbie the Album (Original Movie Soundtrack) in neon pink; and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3: Awesome Mix in purple and blue vinyl.

Local Nepalese give blood to support

‘Red Love’ and help an Aussie mum in need As part of the ‘Red Love’ initiative to help keep stocks up during the colder months, and also to help a woman in desperate need, a dozen men from the local Nepalese community in Dubbo gave blood last week. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

By DAVID DIXON

he local Nepalese community are doing their bit to help overcome the winter blood donor shortage, giving regularly as part of a regional initiative.

A dozen men from the Dubbo community last week donated as part of their support for the ‘Red Love’ initiative to help keep stocks up during the colder months; and also with a thought for a woman in desperate need.

Their offering comes as an urgent nationwide search has gone out for blood donors to help a South Australian mother-of-two with a blood type so rare that just one in 10,000 people may be a match.

“Last night, the Dubbo Nepalese community came in as a group to donate and support the appeal,” Australian Red Cross Blood Service spokesperson Brian Bruce said.

“This follows Lifeblood launching an urgent nationwide search for blood donors to help the mother… it’s a rare match only found in some people with

A and O blood types,” he added.

The 37-year-old mother Amira is currently in an Adelaide hospital awaiting urgent open-heart surgery, and is expected to need more than 20 bags of blood prior to, during, and after the procedure.

Lifeblood Medical Director Dr James Daly said any of thousands of blood donors in Australia or internationally could be a match.

“Most people will be either O or A blood type, but Amira has a rare combination of other blood types that need to be matched, which means any donor with O or A blood type might prove to be a perfect match.

“We have identified a few suitable donors, but this mum will require a large number of units to see her through her surgery, and finding as many donors as we can with the right blood type will ensure we can meet her transfusion needs, both now and in the future,” Dr Daly said.

For the local Nepalese community –

the fastest growing migrant group in Australia – the donation last week, was no one-off, Mr Bruce explained.

“It’s called ‘Red Love’, an initiative that they’re part of that has been running a few months. It goes until September sometime, and is designed to help overcome our shortage of donors in winter,” Mr Bruce said.

“It involves the Dubbo, Orange, and Bathurst Nepalese communities, the Nepalese Australian Association, and Dubbo and Orange hospitals,” he added.

In the continuing search for the rare blood type, Lifeblood, Amira, and her husband Ahmed thanked people who have already come forward to donate in the hope of being a match.

“We are so grateful to family, friends and the wonderful people in the community, many of whom we do not know, who have heard about Amira’s plight and have rolled up a sleeve to donate blood,” Ahmed said.

HIS NAME IS 'MHERV' AND, LADIES AND GENTS, HE MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE!

HUNDREDS of men’s (and women’s) lives have been saved over the past half decade though a short visit to a unique visiting health service, which is coming to Dubbo in August.

“Mherv” – the Men’s Health Education Rural Van – is a fully equipped and staffed health unit targeted mainly at often medically-averse men, that provides basic but essential health checks that can make all the difference.

Organised by Rotary, with the support of the local Dubbo group, over the past five years it is estimated that more than 450 lives have been saved because of free basic health checks, Registered Nurse Leanne Garvey, who

travels around NSW in Mherv, explained. “Don’t hesitate to give 10 minutes of your busy day to get a free basic health screening undertaken. Literally, It could save your life.”

Vital but straightforward tests that Leanne offers free include: blood pressure; cholesterol levels; blood sugar levels; with a general quick assessment of your health thrown in for good measure.

Mherv treats around 3500 patients each year, with it being little surprise at the number of doctor-dodging men who have undetected symptoms: around 40 per cent require a follow-up visit to a GP. While men are the main

target of the free service, which is also supported by the Royal Freemasons Benevolent Institution (RFBI) and home carpet and upholstery cleaners, Electrodry, the facility does not discriminate, Project Leader Graeme Hooper explained.

“While men are our key target, as we don’t want them dropping dead in the paddock, ladies are also welcome,” Graeme said.

“Mherv” is in town on both Friday, August 25, from 9.30–3:30pm; and on Saturday, August 26, from 9.30–12.30pm, at the Dubbo Rotunda, corner of Church and Macquarie streets, Dubbo. There is no cost for a check-up.

TIME WARP FEEDBACK

by Elsie Howie

Elsie Howie made contact with Dubbo Photo News recently after viewing the photograph in ‘Time Warp’ of newlyweds Mr and Mrs Kevin Murphy which bought to light the many cakes made for special occasions such as wedding days by local Dubbo cake decorator, May McCardle.

Here are Elsie’s comments about May and her cake decorating expertise: “Those of us with memories of Dubbo going back into last century knew exactly who ‘Mrs McArdle’ was. She made and decorated the three-tiered, heart-shaped wedding cake for happy newlyweds presented in Dubbo Photo News of Mrs and Mrs Kevin Murphy whose charming picture from circa 1956 you reproduced in one of your editions.

May McArdle, now aged 96, is still very much part of our community. In fact, May was out to lunch recently with members, past members and friends of the Seniors Walking Group which she led until very recently from its inception late last century.

May reigned supreme in local cake decorating circles for decades… if there was a wedding, christening, birthday or other special event, you could be pretty sure that it was May who would have done the amazing decorations and, with the assistance of husband Eric, also made the fruit cakes.

I’m sure that there would be many families in the region who have

treasured photos of all those special occasions and the cakes which went with them.

The wealth of cakes she crafted using those delicate icing skills of the past (no psychedelic colours or pre-mixed icing on mud cakes, as these days) would have made an amazing exhibition in themselves.

As over the years May’s photos have disappeared, it would be fantastic if Dubbo Photo News readers could email in photos of May’s cakes from their own albums, to present in another ‘Time Warp’ article.

At lunch, May was remembering who’d taught her those icing skills and having to get specially shaped tins made at TAFE. May was also known across town for many decades via other avenues too, with guiding, and her association with Dubbo West Public School.

Thanks for those ‘Time Warp’ segments, eye openers to younger readers, I’m sure. And, yes, that wedding write-up itself was standard format back then, and no doubt fascinating for newcomers to our city, particularly those from other cultures.”

heartbreaking, ‘Death of a Salesman’ sad, brilliant IT’S one the saddest, most iconic, plays of the 20th century, dealing with the dehumanising qualities of rampant consumerism and careerism, and it’s coming to Dubbo in August.

Arthur Miller’s heartbreaking masterpiece, Death of a Salesman will be at Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) for two performances on Friday, August 18.

Well-known Australian actor Paul English takes on the iconic and moving role of Willy Loman, “a salesman with his feet on the subway stairs, and his head in the stars.”

Since its premiere in the late 1940s, the two-act play has gained in reputation throughout the years, and is now considered a modern-day work of genius. The unfolding tragedy of the salesman, Willy’s life; his dreams; his worries; his failures; and his family, is analogous and recognisable for many, even after three-quarters of a century.

Margot Knight (Prisoner, Neighbours, Blue Heelers) completes this nuclear family as the self-effacing matriarch Linda Loman. Knight successfully portrays Linda’s oscillating temperament as she converses with her husband and sons.

With Willy, she is submissive; caring; supportive and doomed to a hopeless life. While, with her sons, she is more direct and assertive.

Manager of Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre Linda Christof said that Dubbo is fortunate to be only one of three NSW venues to present this legendary work following an extensive tour of 21 performances throughout Victoria.

“Basically, it’s a story of an ordinary man in 1949 chasing the American Dream; it’s a storyline that traverses countries and is just as accurate in 2023,” she said. “It’s one of those gutsy

plays that will have you talking about it with friends for a long time.”

This production has earned rave reviews, with the Melbourne Age describing it as “a tragic masterpiece”. It added: “Traditionalists will love it; all the creativity gets poured into moulding fully inhabited characters through which the play’s enduring questions are explored.”

“Wallaby Wheel” shows Stampede is a “running festival for everyone”!

By DAVID DIXON

“A Running Festival for Everyone”, is more than just a catchy slogan for the Dubbo Stampede; they mean it with all their heart!

With Dubbo Photo News a Media Partner for this wonderful regional event, organisers want to get all locals involved in the fun of the run and, in that, they do mean “everyone”.

One of the features of this year’s series, is the second ever running of the one-kilometre “Wallaby Wheel”; a special event to touch the emotions of everyone, organiser Maree Barnes believes.

“We have just opened up registration for the ‘Wallaby Wheel Walk and Run’; it’s for entrants with a disability, any type, physical or intellectual,” Maree explained.

“Some come in wheelchairs, with mobility aides, sight-impaired, it’s only a fledgling event, and we really want to promote it,” she added.

She said that the inaugural Walk last year, proved one of the highlights of the five-race festival, based around Dubbo’s Taronga Western Plains Zoo. “They start one kilometre from the finish line and, last year, there were hundreds of other competitors waiting for the half-marathon to start,” Maree recalled.

“So, as they came towards

the finish line, we had hundreds of participants cheering them on, you should have seen the smiles on their faces, it was an absolute joy, it was one of the highlights of my life,” she enthused.

To encourage those for whom a kilometre is a marathon, the organisers have made participation, as simple as possible, Maree said.

“We’d really like people to enter, so we’re having free entry for people with a disability and their carers.

“The aim is to take away any barriers for entry… these are people, for whom this event, is an enormous achievement, something, for which the rest of us may take for granted,” Maree said.

The Wallaby Wheel is one of five events at this year’s Stampede that also includes the 42km full-marathon “Rhino Ramble”, the half-marathon “Zebra Zoom”, the 10km “Cheetah Chase and the 5.3km “Dingo Dash”.

“The Dash is really popular with families… we have people also run in animal outfits as well,” Maree explained.

“It does range from people who do the event as a family fun run, to some really serious runners,” she concluded.

1962 EK Holden

Shark-fin EK a classic model from the boomtime 1960s

BY DAVID DIXON The EK Holden was the first new GMH model released in the 1960s and was a clear-break from the smooth, rounded, utilitarian Holdens of the early post-war years.

With its classic shark-fin rear lights, stylishly aesthetic body-shaping, two-tone colour scheme, stainless steel trims, as well as chrome special badges, it foretold an era of increasing affluence and national self-confidence.

Like the FB series that it replaced, all EK models were powered by a 138 cubic inches (2260cc) inline six cylinder engine commonly referred to in Australia (due to its paint colour) as a “grey motor” that produced about 75-brake horse-power

With a production run of 150,214 vehicles, the EK sold well in several overseas markets including New Zealand, South-East Asia, and the Pacific Islands. It also did well in South Africa, where it was marketed as being “Built for a country like ours” and, due to its rugged build, was subsequently very popular with farmers.

The EK was replaced by the more boxy, modular contemporary-looking Holden EJ series in July 1962. However, it has remained exceedingly popular as a classic model from the now-lost age of Australian motor car manufacturing.

With its classic shark-fin rear lights, stylishly aesthetic body-shaping, twotone colour scheme, stainless steel trims, as well as chrome special badges, the Holden EK, foretold an era of increasing affluence and national self-confidence.

VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH The Dubbo Stampede depends on 140 volunteers each year from community organisations such as West Dubbo, Dubbo City and South Dubbo Rotary clubs; Girl Guides; the Vixens and Kits running group; this year’s fundraising recipient Tradies in Sight, plus individuals who just want to help.

West Dubbo Rotary Club member and secretary Nicole Shanks has volunteered with Dubbo Stampede for 12 years.

“It seemed an easy task to do and you had the opportunity to help others out to make their event a success,” Nicole said. On the day, which this year is Sunday, August 27, Nicole can be found working at one of the many water stations passing water to the runners.

“When there is a gap in the participants, I clean up the cups if runners miss the garbage bins, so the area is tidy and not a hazard. Plus I’ve also done a little bit of marshalling, and I like to say encouraging words to runners as they go by, just to give them a bit of positivity.”

Nicole’s commitment to the event is one day a year and she typically starts at 6.30am, ending around noon. “The early morning

starts are always a challenge - especially when it is really cold and frosty, and you can see the mist on the river water, but it’s only for a few hours on one day and the organisers will find you a position where you can help out to fit with how much time you can give.”

Nicole feels valued as the participants are very appreciative of volunteers giving their time and the majority say thank you as they are running or walking by. “I’m inspired about how some people can complete the Stampede and take it seriously, while others come for the social side, and it’s a way to meet up with friends and family, and some get dressed up in costumes,” Nicole said.

As an active member of the Dubbo West Rotary for 11 years, Nicole frequently volunteers at their various events such as Carols By Candlelight; Rotary’s annual Trailer Raffle; and the Michael Egan Memorial Book Fair.

“I enjoy giving my time where I can, and you know you’ve changed the lives of people when you feel valued and appreciated. The funds raised from the Dubbo Stampede are put back into the community to help others, too, which is what Rotary is all about. It

could be one simple thing that you wouldn't think could be significant, but it can have an enormous impact on others.”

Dubbo Stampede is on Sunday August 27, and organisers would love to hear from anyone who can help. Please email: contact@dubbostampede.com.au

FOCUS ON FLETCHERS

Being eager to learn opens doors at Fletchers

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

SMRITI Shrestha joined Fletcher International Exports (Fletchers) three years ago this week, starting out as a packer in the cold boning fabrication room. But it wasn’t long before Smriti was given the opportunity to spread her wings within the company.

“I got a chance to grow myself by having lots of training and then to learn about being a quality assurance officer, and I worked in that role for almost one-and-ahalf years and was learning a lot of things about the meat industry. Then two months ago, I got the chance to learn new things and I’m now in the quality assurance management team working with documentation to make sure the quality assurance officers are all doing the right thing,” the 34-year-old said.

At the beginning of her tenure with Fletchers, Smriti thought she’d only stay for around six months.

“I came to Australia as a student and I studied a masters in professional accounting in Sydney but – with the COVID outbreak – visas being issued prioritised things like nursing, naturally, and the expectation for many accounting jobs is that you have to be an Australian citizen or permanent resident, so I worked for a wastepaper recycling company for a while then I decided to move regionally, outside Sydney.

“When I was looking for jobs I mostly heard about Fletcher International and that they give opportunities for people and, if you’re trying for a job, just try. And within four days of applying I got the chance for an interview and I thought I’d just stay six months, but slowly I started doing it and I love the job, and I never thought I’d love working in the meat industry, and now I’m thinking of sticking here a long time.”

Smriti says the best on the job experience so far was becoming a quality assurance officer.

“When I came here I told them I want to learn if I get the chance, I’m interested to learn, then there was a COVID outbreak so we had to shut down the company and then I thought, oh, my chance of learning will never come. It was almost six months, but then suddenly I got a call from the department asking me if I was still interested, and of course I said, ‘Yes!’.

“I did think, you know, well, I’m from Nepal, maybe we won’t get the chance… but here at Fletchers they give chances to everybody especially if you’re eager to learn. When I started in the new role it was so interesting because I was learning the reasons why we do the things we do, so the day I got the call was the best day on the job for me,” Smriti said.

Another highlight is to be visited by the company owner, Roger Fletcher.

“When we were packing, he used to come and guide us, he would show us how and sometimes if there’s lots of production then he comes and works beside us. In our country, if you are the boss, you won’t be meeting your people like that… it’s very separate, they’re above you.

“Here, we see the main person is coming and helping, and it’s so good. They are interested in their business personally. I tell my family about this company and they’re so proud of me knowing I’m getting a chance to improve myself because it’s true they give everyone opportunity.”

The experience for Smriti has been a positive one and she’s no longer looking back.

“When I decided not to pursue accounting, I was a little disappointed but now my husband says to me, ‘oh, you’re so satisfied’ and it’s because I love my work at Fletchers,” Smriti said.

“When I first came here, I was very homesick and I cried for two years, but now I got used to it and with my job and my life, it’s good now. I call my family in Nepal a lot, and I miss them, but I’m enjoying living here because there are lots of opportunities compared to Nepal.

Outside of work, Smriti enjoys cooking traditional Nepalese foods.

“In my country, we depend on our parents, even if we have time we never cook, but here we have no choice, so we try lots

Scholarships helping educate the next generation of ‘allied health professionals’ ORANA Early Childhood Intervention (OECI) recently presented its prestigious scholarships for 2023 to “allied health professionals” – those studying speech, occupational therapy, or physiotherapy.

The scholarships honour OECI’s unique history, a community-based not-for-profit that has supported children with special needs in Dubbo; Wellington; Narromine; Warren; Trangie; Gilgandra; Tottenham; Nyngan and Yeoval for more than 35 years.

The awards are also designed to foster and encourage the skills of up-and-coming local allied health professionals, as well as providing a pathway for further career development.

“Our relationships within our community, as well as our relationships with the families that we work with, begin to describe why we do what we do at Orana Early Childhood Intervention,” Dubbo’s OECI Service Manager Merryn An-

derson said.

“We recognise and value the importance of family, and relationships, building capacity and striving towards inclusion,” Ms Anderson added.

The four scholarships presented this year were: The Nola Honeysett Scholarship awarded to Anna Ward, a student in the second year of studying speech pathology at the University of Newcastle.

This scholarship commemorates Nola’s commitment and dedication to Orana Early Childhood intervention, with involvement in the fundraising committee, before joining the Board of Management and becoming the Chairperson. Nola was also recognised as a Patron for Orana Early Childhood Intervention in 2020, commemorating her significant service and commitment.

The Ruth O’Brien Scholarship awarded to Jessica Ryan and Chelsea Hunter, both third year stu-

dents studying speech pathology at the University of Newcastle.

This scholarship commemorates Ruth’s involvement with Orana Early Childhood Intervention from its initial meetings in establishing an early intervention centre in Dubbo. Ruth later became a valuable board member for many years as a board member for Orana Early Childhood Intervention.

The Regional Australia Bank Scholarship awarded to Victoria Prince, a student in the fourth and final year of studying speech pathology at Charles Sturt University in Albury. This scholarship was provided through the Regional Australia Bank Community Partnership program to support the skills of allied health students moving away to complete study and to one day, hopefully, return to work within the Dubbo Allied Health workforce.

During the presentation of scholarships, Ms Anderson thanked re-

cipients, family members, and other attendees, for supporting this iconic local service.

“It’s an honour to be able to contribute to growing our local workforce and supporting our Orana area students,” she concluded.

Scholarships will be open again

in July 2024, interested allied health locals from the Orana region studying speech, occupational therapy, or physiotherapy can go to: www.oeci.org.au to apply.

Title: Marketing and Creative Service Team Leader What are your role and responsibilities? I am very fortunate to head up the Marketing and Creative Service Team for Dubbo Regional Council, where we look after the marketing and creative services delivery for both corporate, council-owned facilities and Dubbo Region as a must-visit destination.

Did you grow up in Dubbo? No, I didn’t.

When you were little, what did you think you wanted to be? I was

a little obsessed with Girlfriend magazine and high-end fashion when I was young, which is why I wanted to be a model who travelled the world. It always sounded so much more glamorous than what it is!

Did you study after school? If so, what and where? Yes, marketing and communications in Toowoomba and Sydney.

Prior to your current job, what did you do?

I worked in media for 11 years in Sydney, looking after the top digital brands in Australia.

How did you land your current job? I saw the job advertised while on

maternity leave and then I had a discussion with the director, who I really admire, and the rest is history.

What do you love most about it? I love that we are a new department and we have a great team. I see so much potential and opportunity.

What are some of the more challenging aspects? Understanding the world of council.

Can you tell me about a career highlight to date? I have been really fortunate throughout my career to have many highlights and mentors that have supported me.

However, even though I’ve

worked with elite media brands such as Channel Nine; 9Honey; News. com.au, kidspot.com.au, That’s Life magazine, to name a few and worked with the best talent that Australia has to offer, I still think kicking off my own business to help support mum-owned businesses at mummajones.com.au has definitely been my career highlight so far.

What do you love about forging a career in Dubbo? I have worked with the top brands in media and it’s so exciting to bring my knowledge back, implement and make an impact in the place I now call home with my family.

GREATEST city in the Golden West, Dubbo finally has a Council Chambers befitting our major regional centre.

Dubbo Regional councillors officially opened the new Council Chamber last week, just before July’s Ordinary Council Meeting.

Described as “the cornerstone of transparent governance and community engagement”, attendees included current councillors, with the mayor and councillors dressed in their formal robes, as well as former mayors, councillors and directors, with Councillor Lewis Burns performing a smoking ceremony, while local

resident Elissa Burden performed the national anthem The new chamber is now part of a multi-purpose suite of rooms on the ground floor of the Dubbo Civic Administration Building (CAB), allowing staff to utilise the room as a meeting room when not in use as a chamber.

The milestone marks a significant step forward for Dubbo’s enhanced services and improved public engagement, with the change providing community members with improved disabled access and toilet facilities.

“The new Council Chamber is where the future of our region

We are

will be shaped,” Dubbo Mayor Councillor Mathew Dickerson said. “The new chamber is the heart of our civic engagement, enabling us to work collaboratively and transparently with our community members. This chamber symbolises our commitment to build a better and more accessible future together,” he added.

Councillors elected to move the chamber from the previous location to the ground floor during the Ordinary Meeting of Council in March, 2023.

“Being on the ground floor of the CAB the Council Chambers

are now easily accessible to all community members, and new technology in the chamber in terms of speakers and microphones will make it even easier for the public to access and listen to the meetings,” Cr Dickerson said. “It means our community will be able to more clearly see governance in action and join us in the public gallery of the new Council Chamber for both the Ordinary and Committee meetings twice each month,” he added.

The new chamber will house a new visual and audio system which consists of three televi-

sions, two for councillors and one for members of the public gallery; 22 desk microphones and an additional four handheld microphones; a hearing loop; new ceiling speakers and amplifiers and the capability to control the room set-up from a control panel.

The integration of the technology enables a higher quality live stream of council meetings, making them accessible to community members who cannot attend in person.

The former Council Chamber on level two of the CAB will be decommissioned and turned into additional office space for staff.

MORE THAN A GET-TOGETHER:

PROPERTY MANAGER’S DAY, SHOW’S INDUSTRY ROLE I

t’s only been going four years, but, already, National Property Manager’s Day has become a feature of the local real estate calendar.

The Real Estate Institute of New South Wales’ (REINSW) Orana Division’s event this year was another resounding success, held in the courtyard of the charming Poppy Seed Cafe on Darling St. The day was attended by more than 30 property managers and representatives from six local agencies.

Adding to the event’s significance, Dubbo Mayor, Mathew Dickerson, and State Local Member and NSW National Party Leader, Dugald Saunders, attended to express their appreciation for property managers and gain insight into the challenges they face.

Co-chair of REINSW Orana Division, Tara Searle, added that the event is far more than just a get-together of local realtors.

“Our annual event is a critical opportunity to recognise the exceptional efforts property managers invest every year,” she said.

“This year, more than ever, their dedication and resilience have been at the forefront of navigating the shifting sands of the real estate landscape,” she added.

Co-chair of the group, Laura Shooter mirrored her colleague’s comments and emphasised the critical role property managers play in serving both renters and investors.

The day served not only as a celebration of the vital role of property managers in the real estate industry, but also as a networking platform, fostering shared experiences and community within the profession.

The REINSW Orana Division, was proud to facilitate this complimentary event, and anticipates hosting it again in the future, maintaining their tradition of acknowledging and supporting the important work of property managers.

“Property managers are an essential part of any community’s service infrastructure,” Ms Shooter said.

“They are indeed deserving of all the recognition they receive,” she added.

Adding to the success of the event were industry suppliers SATS (Smoke Alarm Testing Services) and Tapi – a property care platform enabling improved tenant reporting, faster job tracking and smarter maintenance planning.

Their sponsorship and participation demonstrated their commitment to making property managers’ lives better.

RECREATION ROOMS from $16,990 based on 5 x 2.5 conditions apply,

YOUR STARS ARIES: You have an exciting week in store! Don’t miss the opportunity to enjoy yourself.

You’ll help a friend financially. At work, a project should enrich you considerably. You may need to rest or at least focus your energy more effectively.

TAURUS: Your sense of initiative and determination will enable you to reach the finish line. Think about this: you must like your job to feel at home in it. Your significant other will organise some romantic moments.

GEMINI: You’ll attend an event that brings many people together. If you’re an artist, your extraordinary imagination will enable you to create a masterpiece. Follow your intuition to make the right choices.

CANCER: You’re short on time and must carefully plan your activities. A little relaxation is needed to ease the stress. Take the time to reconnect with old friends.

LEO: Give yourself a break before the end of the winter season. Pay attention to the small details, especially if it concerns a long-term project or your job. You’ll have the opportunity to let off steam at a party, probably one planned to celebrate you.

VIRGO: Your emotions are running high and could cause you to go a bit overboard. Be careful with money. You tend to make impulse purchases. Spoil yourself in moderation. At the very least, treat yourself to something you really like.

LIBRA: After being promoted, you might need to purchase a new wardrobe that reflects your new position at work. You’ll invest in your image for both professional and personal reasons; you want to look good at work and when you go out.

SCORPIO: You’ll handle several work emergencies. You’ll be generously rewarded for your time. You’ll be entitled to an impressive promotion, among other things. A new flame will solidify their commitment to you, even if it’s just to live together.

SAGITTARIUS: You’re a perfectionist and will achieve great masterpieces one after the other during your daily activities. Patience and wisdom will benefit you. You’ll be able to work magic in your relationship.

CAPRICORN: You’ll spend part of the week at home. If you have young children, you’ll have a lot of responsibility on your shoulders. A particular situation could keep you at home. If you’re single, you may be surprised to meet someone.

AQUARIUS: You’ll travel more than anticipated, and it may all take a little longer than you thought. Don’t turn down invitations from your friends and family. Have fun; you need to let go! A property deal could be profitable for you.

PISCES: You’ll find a solution to a financial problem. Don’t hesitate to consult your friends or a professional to sort out your money issues. You’ll be approved to finance a project.

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

TIME WARP The Truckie Gourmet

By Jenet Stewart Marlies and Theo Alder called into Dubbo Photo News lately to share some more light on a previous story by Steve Hodder on the service stations surrounding Dubbo’s business district.

The Alders operated the Golden Fleece Roadhouse on Bourke Street in Dubbo for a number of years during the 70s and 80s. They

also went onto operate Restaurant Edelweiss where Down the Lane is located today.

Theo provided a pristine copy of the Truck and Bus Transportation Magazine’s ‘The Truckie Gourmet’ section with a snippet which was written about the pair back in 1974.

We tried reprinting the magazine copy, however the print was far too small to read.

So, here’s an excerpt from the magazine. It’s quite humorously written and a funny read:

A snippet of the Truckie Gourmet from 1974, written about Theo and Marlies Alder’s Golden Fleece Service Station and their outstanding food which was reported on by Bluey Tucker, a writer for the Truck and Bus Transportation Magazine. Photo: Dubbo Photo News.

WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER?

Do you have memories of the Dubbo of yesteryear that you’d like to share?

“The Bobby” is what football is all about, localmade-good, Nic says

By GEOFF MANN LAST week in Dubbo Photo News, we shared a story of the Challenge Trophy between Orana Spurs and Dubbo City Bulls Football Clubs named in honour of Robert “Bobby” Hughes.

This cup was inaugurated following the passing of the man who had devoted years of time, energy, and mentorship, to young players across the city and the west.

I spoke to former SASS Dubbo junior, Nicole Begg (nee Sykes) about this event over the weekend. She was super-impressed that this trophy had been introduced.

“Oh, what an awesome opportunity, because you don’t often get to play for that type of trophy at a local level,” Nicole said.

“What you’ve described, is the best part of football, the game that we love, and I think sport in general, brings-out those things for the community, having something to belong to, that’s bigger than yourself,” she added.

Nic still coaches in Canberra, and had her

livewire twin under her tutelage last year.

The pair have been immortalised in the Western Region for their efforts in reaching for the stars, travelling across the State, and then becoming foundation players with the Canberra United club.

Both have been getting up close and personal with the World Cup in town, Nic as a “Super Fan” travelling to games, and Ashleigh in the commentary team with Optus Sports.

Neither of the local athletes made good, have lost perspective “There’s been plenty of people like Bob along the way, from junior coaches, parents who have encouraged and passed-on tips, as well as more experienced representative mentors, and they often leave a lasting legacy,” Nic said.

“Without those kinds of people being involved, we’d be in a lot worse place, so it is fitting to recognise them; we have lots to be grateful for,” was a touching final word from Nicole.

Forty-odd bowlers, and one blow-out score, for the game of the morning Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’ THIRTY-NINE bowlers competed in some very close games on Sunday, but there was, however, one blowout score!

This involved Paul Wooldridge, Ian Humphries, and Pete Ruzans, who started with high hopes for a win. However, great bowling from Paul Martin and, especially, Julie Brown, backed-up by Greg Brown, severely dented those hopes in the first exchanges.

The latter opened with a seven count and powered ahead – three lots of four counts and a triple with a few minor scores, leaving them at 27-zip, before Pete’s side won their first end! Paul, Ian, and Pete, eventually found their line after the break to add 10 shots, however, the proverbial horses

had already bolted – Paul M and the Browns were easily home 3110, and clearly the Bowlers of the Morning!

Sue McCauley, John Kennedy, and Gordon Scott, also won the first five ends against Ron McCauley, Eric Satchell, and Phil Knight, netting seven shots to lead by two.

The game continued with intrigue – seven all on 11, nine all on 13, and 10 all on 15 – with neither side giving their opponents any latitude. Fortunately for Ron, Eric, and Phil, a double on the last end, gave them the win 12-10, eight ends each.

In another game, an enjoyable first half had Vicki Hummel, Allan Stratford, and Trish Gosper, winning five ends, then adding eight shots to lead by four, from

Leo Balstad, Ruby Stockings, and Kevin Scott.

The deficit proved too much to get back during the second eight ends, as both sides won four ends with just singles scored on each. It was a tough game, but Trish and her side established a lead and maintained it through to the end, winning 12 shots to eight.

Frank Armstrong and Al Andriske also made a positive statement after their first eight ends, dominating Mel Giddings and Mick Strawhan. The “game of two halves” syndrome was evident, with Frank and Al allowing Mel and Mick into the game in the second half, scoring a couple of triples to level the game at 10-all, on end 12.

Frank and Al then scored a double to get back into the lead, but

Mel and Mick bettered that with another couple of triples to take the lead. From eight shots down after eight, to five shots the better after 16, is something to gloat about for Mel and Mick, with the final score, 17-12.

The blonde jokes were raining, as Matt Quill tried to concentrate on bowling! His team, Chris Castlehouse and Pete Bennison, keptup with the “Joker”, Graham Ross and his team of Ray Strawhan and Chris Strojny. Seven-all after the first eight ends, Chris, Ray, and Graham, drove themselves into a lead, and held-on for a hard fought 16-11 win.

The swinger of the day, Sue Armstrong was paid the big bucks to assist Steve Kelly and Pete Sinclair on one side, and Cheryl Storch and Paul Goodstat on the other. It

was Paul’s contribution that stood tall during the first half, netting his team a three-shot lead. Nineall after 10; 11 all on 13, and that was as close Steve and Pete got, Cheryl and Paul kept their nerve, to win 18 to 12.

Our visitor from the Ridge, Walter Kreuger then teamed-up with Ken Whittaker and Mike Twohill.

They weren’t able, however, to stop a scoring spree by “Doc” Livingston, John Cole, and Col Dover.

The stronger combination led by six after the first eight first-ends.

The comeback though saw Walter, Ken, and Mike, put in extra effort for wich they were rewarded, gaining the lead by three on end 12. It ended there! Doc, John, and Col had found something extra, racing away over the last four to take an absorbing victory, 19-13.

Meaghan Kempson, school-teacher, football coach, sporting visionary

By GEOFF MANN MEAGHAN Kempson started playing football, (soccer) at a young age, with her older brother in Orange.

Following in his footsteps; she played at school and in local comps, and went on to represent at the highest level.

“I worked hard and was lucky enough to play in Western Region teams, and was selected in NSW Country teams at Nationals for many years,” Meaghan explained.

Still plays in Parkes, where she is teaching, it is her love of the game, that has taken her to a new level through coaching.

“I’m currently taking the Parkes Cobras Mens through their paces in Western Premier League,” she said.

“It is a wonderful opportunity to apply my love of football and desire; to pass-on knowledge to a fairly diverse group of young blokes, who compete against powerhouse teams from Orange, Bathurst,and Dubbo,” she said.

“I’ve found a new passion in life for coaching. I’m trying to give back to the system that gave so much to me as a young player,” she said.

Nic and Ash Sykes, now both married to the “brothers Begg” and living in Canberra, often mention the pathways that saw them attain Matildas’ honours in their long careers.

Meaghan is currently in charge of the Country U/16 Girls’ team who compete in Australian titles once a year.

“That process brings together the best young talent from right across the country; I work with others in football to run training and game day activities for girls from all of country NSW, so there is a huge commitment from parents and the players themselves,” Meaghan said.

“Once we have sorted our ‘Final 16’; we will be heading-off to Coffs Harbour to weld the team together, and hope to win a national title,” she added.

Meaghan travels extensively on weekends and during school holidays, to fulfil her commitments with NSW Country.

She says between teaching, coaching the Cobras, and selection trials for the U/16 Girls, her time is: “filled quite nicely”.

Meaghan’s love of soccer has seen her travel as a “gear steward” to the Junior World Cup in South America last year.

“Liah Blayney at the National titles; brought me into camp with the Young Matildas,” she said.

“Liah is excellent at providing opportunities for regional coaches, and she took me under her wing and brought me in as a Development Coach with the Matildas; and then an opportunity popped-up to be the Equipment Manager at the World Cup last year,” she added.

Meaghan laughed that she is very good at carrying bags and laying out equipment now.

“And washing dirty kits!” she said, after finding herself in Mexico and Costa Rica last year.

“I owe those experiences to Liah; all thanks to her and the opportunities, the clinics I was able to attend opened-up opportunities for me,” she said.

“I guess if you have a passion for something, and you’re prepared to move outside your comfort zone,

it can take you all over the world,” she said.

On the issue of women in coaching roles, with men’s teams, she is positive.

“I haven’t seen many women coaching men’s teams, but many more females are now taking-on similar roles within football.

“There is a legacy fund that Australian Football has instituted aimed at upskilling female coaches,” Meaghan says, adding that she was fortunate-enough to obtain one of those scholarships.

‘It has enabled me to attain my ‘B-Licence’, and that has been incredibly-beneficial working with the men,” she added.

The future of football will see more female coaches, she adds.

“I think there will be more women like me taking-on roles, as their formal skills and confidence grow,” she said.

“But, at the moment, we are very fortunate, to have many lending their considerable gifts to girls and women’s teams right across Australia,” Meaghan believes.

What does it mean to see Ellie Carpenter (Cowra) and Clare Hunt (Grenfell) now showcasing their skills in a home World Cup,

she wonders.

“I was fortunate enough as a player and regional coach, to be involved with both Ellie and Clare,” she said.

“They’ve worked extremely hard to be where they are now, and deserve everything that comes their way,” she added.

Success, she adds, is down to hard work, when no-one is watching.

“It has been a real journey of love for the game, fighting-off injuries and other distractions to achieve the highest honour,” the unabashed Matilda-supporting teacher from Parkes told me.

“They are flying the flag for regional NSW, and we are all very proud,” Meaghan added.

With Grace Hamilton from Orange captaining the Wallaroos in Rugby, and Emily Chalker (Smith) from Crookwell, the Hockeyroos, and Phoebe Litchfield is playing for the world-beating Women’s Cricket team, showing some of the talent that has been produced in country NSW, she wonders, could there be another leader for the Matildas, waiting in the wings?

“Yeah, yeah, without a doubt; we often talk about this in the

NSW Country teams; we can work on skills and techniques, but one thing that is built into county athletes, is resilience and determination,” she said.

“Perhaps they are traits inbuilt, because of the many challenges we face on a daily basis – distance, drought, flood, fires and mice – and there is a real desire to be the best they can be.”

Meaghan has an incredible perspective as a former junior and senior rep player, teacher, coach, umpire and “gear steward”, and was willing to share her views with Dubbo Photo News readers, “Having to travel extreme distances to get the same opportunities as kids from metro areas, builds character, and that can’t be coached.

It is in the nature of the athlete, and we see it frequently as those like Ellie and Clare and the Sykes twins, climb the ladder and reach the top of their sport,” she said.

Meaghan has been flying the flag for the Matildas and was yelling loudly when they took the field against Canada in the knockout World Cup fixture on Tuesday night, which they won handsomely, 4-0, going on to the next stage of the tournament.

Finals race hotting-up as jigsaw takes shape!

Contributed by CASTLEREAGH RUGBY LEAGUE FINAL pieces of the 2023 Christie and Hood Castlereagh League Finals jigsaw will be put into place over the remaining two competition games, with six clubs fighting it out for the five semi-final berths on offer, with the finishing order still to be sorted.

The only certainty, is that the Gulgong Bull Terriers will finish as Minor Premiers, after they accounted for the Coonamble Bears 46-0 in a Boronia Cup challenge game last Saturday at Gulgong.

Even if they were to lose their remaining two games, the Terriers will still finish in first position, as they currently have a seven-competition point buffer between themselves and the Dunedoo Swans, who hold down second position on the ladder. The Swans position is also pre-destined going into the final round, as they will have a bye this weekend.

In last week’s games, the Swans and the Cobar Roosters fought-out a thrilling 20-20 draw in their match at Dunedoo last Saturday.

In other games, Narromine Jets downed the Baradine Magpies 36-22, and Gilgandra overcame a stubborn Binnaway Bombshells outfit, drawing-away in the final stages of the game to win 44-16 with their exciting young centre, Ty Sutherland, crossing for five tries in what was a vital win for the Panthers.

The six clubs in contention for a First Grade semi-final position, are Gulgong 36 points, Dunedoo 29, Cobar 28, Narromine 28, Gilgandra 26, and Coonabarabran 24.

The run home for these clubs will see the Terriers play Baradine at Baradine, then Cobar at

home. Dunedoo will get maximum competition points this weekend, courtesy of having the bye before they travel to Gilgandra in the last round.

Cobar face two hard road trips, beginning this Saturday when they play Narromine, before lining-up against Gulgong in Round 14. The Jets are at home to the Roosters, before having the bye.

Gilgandra heads up the Newell to play the Coonabarabran Unicorns, and then they have Dunedoo at home whilst, after hosting the Panthers this Saturday, the Unicorns are at home again in the final round against Binnaway.

While all games are vital this round, the clashes at Narromine and Coonabarabran, stand-out in terms of the implications that they could have on the make-up of the Final Five.

Coonabarabran can draw level with Gilgandra in fifth position, if they can secure a win over the Panthers, whilst outright third is on offer to the winner of the Narromine versus Cobar game.

The Gulgong Terriers can expect no favours from the Baradine Magpies who whilst they might be out of semi-final contention, would like nothing better than to become the first team to bowl-over the Competition leaders this year and, in front of their home crowd, they are capable of anything.

The remaining game will see Coonamble host Binnaway, with the winner of the clash being one step away from avoiding the wooden spoon.

Important League Tag games will also be played at Narromine when the second-placed Jets take-on the third-placed Cobar Roosterettes and, at Baradine, where the Maggies (fourth) and Gulgong (equal fifth) will clash.

Game featuring State of Origin hero, abandoned; Rugby League cracks down on Group 11 violence

By GEOFF MANN RUGBY League; it’s a sometimes brutal game, and passions can easily get out-of-hand, especially for fans and supporters. Much has been achieved, but more needs to be done in this regard, with the NSWRL recently confirming that five individuals have recently been issued breach notices after

abandonment of a game between Wellington Cowboys and Forbes Magpies in a Peter McDonald Premiership match at Spooner Oval, Forbes, on Sunday, July 23.

The fans and players issued the notifications, were in a match that also featured former NRL premiership winner, Test Kangaroo, and 2019 State of Origin hero, Blake Ferguson. The charges from the

brawl, believed to have racial overtones, included:  Seaun Stanley (Wellington Cowboys), two-years breach;  Henry Willis (Forbes Magpies), one-year breach;  Michael Peachey (Wellington Cowboys), nine-weeks breach;  Mitchell Andrews (Forbes Magpies), six-weeks breach;  Jake Stenhouse (Forbes Mag-

pies), two-weeks breach.

Players had until Tuesday afternoon, August 1, to respond to the charges.

The Group 11 Board also issued Forbes with a $2000 fine and the loss of two competition points in each of their four grades citing “inadequate ground management”.

In addition, both the Wellington Cowboys and Forbes Magpies were

Bowls world coming to Dubbo for International Fours tourney

Bowls World is coming to Dubbo for a glittering prize in September; with the International Fours trophy, Chairman of Club Dubbo, Tony Speirs with former World No.1, Steve Glasson.

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

LAWN bowling world is coming to Dubbo in mid-September, with the richest Club tournament in the world highlighting its best players.

Following the huge success of last year’s International Fours Bowls Tournament, the West Dubbo Bowls Club has increased prize money and is anticipating an influx of even more overseas players for 2023.

With $100,000 the kitty for 2022; it will be $125,000 this year, with a cool $40,000 shared by the winning quartet!

Former World Number One and National Coach, Steve Glasson, said that more than 40 international sides will be competing for

the trophy to be contested from Wednesday, September 13.

“They’ll come from places such as Canada, New Zealand, Scotland Ireland, and Fiji,” he enthused.

“It’s one of the most prestigious, and the richest, club tournament held anywhere in the world; West Dubbo have been very pro-active in organising such an event and getting sponsorship and the like organised,” he enthused.

The inaugural event played out against a backdrop of floods and Covid that delayed the start and created uncertainty that meant some players missed out, however

such has been the positive impact that word has spread across the globe and more international teams will descend on the perfectly curated greens.

Bowls manager Anthony Brown, Club president Tony Speirs and Greenkeeper were so inspired by the results of last year’s International, they have had little trouble motivating staff and members.

“Everyone loved the atmosphere around the greens and right across town,” NSW bowler Anthony said.

“It was just the kick we all needed after a few challenging years. The Irish bowlers were a huge hit and this year we aim to

have at least another half a dozen overseas teams competing.”

The International is scheduled a week after the World Championships at Broadbeach in Queensland and the word is already spreading. Teams are expected to see some of the real Australia during their trip Down Under.

The International Fours will be played at Club Dubbo over three days, concluding on Friday, September 15. The tournament will be in both a Round Robin and Knockout format. For more enquiries, call the Club on: 6884 3000, mob. 0403 401 567, email: bowls@clubdubbo.com.

Duck Marg chasing “Champion of Champions”; the final frontier

By GEOFF MANN DUBBO Veterans Swimming Club, better known as “ Dubbo Ducks”, dived in for some exciting headto-head contests on Sunday.

Janine Gardiner, who has taken over as Publicity Officer from our No.1 female Life Member, Judy Walsh, explained Sunday’s

activities.

“Swimmers were matched in pairs, and there was a gradual elimination based on nominated times,” she said.

“The person who was closest to their breaking time, but did not break, went through to the next round until one swimmer was left victorious.”

The race, she said, was swum over 25-metre Freestyle and, she said: “competition was fierce!

“Some foxy racing techniques were spotted, as swimmers tried to beat their opponent whilst not breaking their own time.

“Mal Kavanagh and Margret Ross made it through the rounds, and into the ‘money’ race,” she added.

For the woman swimmer, she said, this was the final frontier…

“Margret has been a finalist in the ‘Champion of Champions’, for the past three years and, ‘Ducks’ could not help wondering, if this would be her year to win,” Janine said.

“The pair shook hands, and the race began, with a lot of cheering

from the flock,” she commentated.

“Margret swam so well, she broke her own time and Mal was declared ‘Champion of Champions’. Congratulations Mal”.

The Ducks is open to anyone who is not afraid to “flap their wings” from 8.30 on Sunday mornings. Just pop into the RSL Pool and join the flock!
