Dubbo Harness Racing Club will then host a meeting that evening.

For those that go to the show on day one (Friday, May 10), don’t miss the performance from Furnace and the Fundamentals that night from 8.30pm at Boardy’s Bar. Hugely popular across the globe, but particularly in rural NSW and Queensland, Furnace and the Fundamentals will also play at Birdsville’s Big Red Bash, Nyngan’s Duck Creek Races, Trundle’s ABBA Festival and the Mundi Mundi Bash at Silverton near Broken Hill in 2024 among other gigs across the world.

People can expect a range of covers that will satisfy most musical tastes.

“Musical chameleons with a sense of humour, the band is tight, energetic and engaging,” the band’s website states.

“Furnace and the Fundamentals are guaranteed to live up to their reputation as the most epic, ridiculous and energetic

uy your ticket, pack some lunch or sample the many on-site food options available, and then spend the whole day and night wandering around to view all that the 2024 Dubbo Show has to offer.

That’s the advice from Dubbo Show Society Secretary Sue Hood ahead of the annual three-day spectacular, this year’s edition running from May 10 to 12 at Dubbo Showground.

Patrons have the option of a one-day pass for $15 or purchasing a three-day pass at $40 via 123 Tix. Whether you attend one day or all three, Sue said there is more than enough to see and do.

Friday’s programme includes ring events, showjumping, cattle and sheep judging, wood chopping, pavilion displays, a junk road auction and all-day street entertainment including Pooka The Clown, stilt walkers and the Dinkum Dinosaurs display.

Sue Hood commented: “You have to witness them to get the feeling. They are so good. We’re lucky to have them.”

Saturday (May 11) will feature more great exhibits: the Dubbo Young Woman presentation, dance from Fierce Performing Arts, a young farmers challenge, and more live music along with the 2DU/ZOO FM fireworks.

Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton will officially open the show that day and the Sing Out Choir will perform the national anthem.

Sunday (May 12) will see the naming of the winner of the Toyota Hilux SR5 raffle presented by Dubbo City Toyota and Gilgandra Toyota.

With raffle tickets $50 each, someone will win a new Toyota HiLux 4x4 SR5 Double-Cab Pick-up valued at $70,000.

“Plenty of tickets are still available, it’s a great prize,” Sue commented.

The motor sport theme then continues on Sunday with the Trackskill V8 Ute Show and the demolition derby to wrap up the entertainment.

There are also thrills of side-show alley across the three days.

Sue Hood has been in the secretary’s role since 1983 and is a full-time administrator with a further two part-time staff.

The Dubbo Show Society committee has around 60 volunteers and around 600 to 700 people will contribute in some way to the running of this year’s show.

The reward comes for those volunteers when they see smiling faces at the show.

“It’s an event where you can pack a sandwich if you wish and spend the whole day,” Sue said. “There is so much to see and do.”

BEATLES, AC/DC, Nirvana, they all started somewhere, so why not take your first step to rock stardom, by entering Dubbo’s Boom. Clash, Rockstar! rock band talent quest?

A unique rock-and-roll mentoring program for emerging and young talent, Boom. Clash, Rockstar! Is no exploitative chew-them-up and spit them-out reality television series, but a genuine group of committed rockers, looking to nurture new talent in Australia.

Having been through the rockand-roll mill himself with his 1980s ska band, The Allniters (Montego Bay, Love and Affection), Brett Pattinson is just looking to give something back to the industry.

“We’ve got 150 bands NSW-wide so far in this, is our second year for the event,” Brett explained.

“Last year, we did Sydney as well a regional areas such as Goulburn, Canberra, the Northern Rivers, this year, we wanted to include Dubbo,” he added.

The competition involves the bands and performers playing a set of only a few numbers at each regional centre, before the finals, so local acts don’t have to be super-accomplished to enter.

“We’re really looking for young, local bands to enter, these would be mentored by an industry panel to show them the ropes.

“We’re then holding a live concert where, say six to eight bands would play three-to-four songs each with a judging panel for that region, the winner of that region, will then go to the Sydney for the grand final,” Brett explained.

But it doesn’t end there, the ultimate aim is to help the bands develop their contacts and management skills, so as to be able to have the best chance of success in what can be a cut-throat business.

“We then introduce them to industry people, record companies, management agencies, a free professional photo shoot, everything to get them started,” Brett explained.

“Along the way, we’ll be mentoring the bands that get through to the grand final, this is not a ‘churnand-burn’ event, we offer them insights into real-life experiences,” he emphasised.

While he said that there is plenty of talent out there, the number of venues supporting live music has shrunk to a fraction of what was available in the heyday of Sydney’s pub rock golden period from the 1970s to the 1990s.

“I’m one of the founders of the program, and it came about when I saw my son perform at his high school, there was a whole lot of rock bands.

“There are so many young musicians than when I was growing-up, but what chance, do any of these kids have, without the contacts and knowledge of the industry?”

He said that places like Dubbo, Bathurst, and Orange, should have plenty of talented musicians that simply don’t know where to start.

“Locally, there are some good young bands out there, but most kids think, ‘I haven’t got the life-skills to take this on’.

“It’s a tough world out there, we want to help them have a chance to make it, in what is a very-competitive industry,” Brett concluded.

Queen of the West and Dubbo Ladies Race Day set to become a DTC calendar highlight

PHOTOS PHO TOS:: SUPP SUPPLIE L D LIE

By DALLAS REEVES

D

ubbo Turf Club (DTC) will host the second Arrowfield Queen of the West and Mercedes-Benz Dubbo Ladies Race Day later this month, and general manager Sam Fitzgerald can see the potential for this event to become a marquee race day on the city’s 18-meeting annual calendar.

Dollar Magic won the first Arrowfield Queen of the West in May, 2023, as a fouryear-old mare for Scone trainer Scott Singleton despite carrying 60 kilograms.

This year, prize money has increased from $40,000 to $50,000 for the feature race on Saturday, May 25.

The DTC’s partnership with Arrowfield Stud will ensure the 2024 winning connections will receive a nomination to the well-credentialed second-year Arrowfield stallion, Hitotsu: a winner of three Group 1 races.

The package of good prize money and the stallion nomination should ensure the 1200-metre Benchmark 82 Handicap event attracts a quality field mixed with country, provincial and metropolitan fillies

and mares.

Mr Fitzgerald explained that a Benchmark 82 is the highest-grade race outside of an open handicap held in the bush, and the race grading has been one of a few strategies considered to attract a high-quality field for the Benchmark 82 Handicap event open to fillies and mares only.

The Scone Cup carnival is the week before and the Arrowfield Queen of the West will be an accesable option as a next start for gallopers aimed at some of the higher graded and black-type races on those programs (black-type being horses that have won Listed or Group races).

Mr Fitzgerald noted Racing NSW had provided DTC with quality race days that give the Dubbo club a chance to build good programs on and off the track.

“We were really, really pleased with the success of last year’s event,” Mr Fitzgerald said. “We have to maximise our potential on those good race days. The idea of the Queen of the West was to create a high-quality race day that is a really at-

tractive racing spectacle also matched with high-quality hospitality.

“This year we’re looking to raise the bar again. We’re looking to recreate that fantastic social event we had last year and also increase our offering with the racing side of things.”

Mr Fitzgerald noted the value combination of prize money and a stallion nomination exceeds what is on offer with a provincial Saturday meeting and is “about on par” with a metropolitan midweek meeting.

“It’s a fairly lucrative reward for the winning connections,” he said. “Whilst we’re very much looking to attract the best bush fillies and mares, we’ve also made it attractive for those major metropolitan and provincial stables to come out and target the race with good prize money and the added bonus of the stallion nomination.”

Off the track, the popular Queen of the West marquee will be back on Saturday, May 25. It sold out last year.

All the hospitality offerings and live mu-

The luxury Queen of the West marquee combines high-end local food and wine, curated design and unparralleled hospitality.

In 2024, the all-inclusive experience offers: • Sparkling and wine by See Saw Wines • Food by Mudgee Made • Premium Beer and RTD Spirits • MoCo Cocktails • Music by Matt Boylan-Smith Tickets are limited and are available from 123 Tix.

Join us for a terrific day of fun, fashion, hospitality and racing on Queen of the West Ladies Race Day. We have hospitality packages to suit all groups and budgets. Please contact the Dubbo Turf Club to discuss. information@dubboturfclub.com.au

sic will feature, including an act after the last race and high-end cocktails.

Golden Eagle Day (Derby Day) and Dubbo Gold Cup Day are two huge events on DTC’s annual list of fixtures.

Mr Fitzgerald can see a time when this race day can also be a marquee event.

“It’s got an enormous potential to become one of our biggest race days in Dubbo and particularly the region,” Mr Fitzgerald said. “We’re looking to attract new demographics into racing and combining quality racing with quality hospitality is the foot in the door to attract new people to the industry.

“We executed a really good event last year but left ourselves plenty of opportunity to improve and expand the event.

“We’re hopeful for some good weather, but in our mind this race day has the potential to become the real jewel in the crown of our feature race meetings throughout the year.”

Tickets to the all-inclusive food, beverage and entertainment experience are available through 123 Tix.

The Arrowfield Queen of the West is a $50,000 Fillies and Mares Benchmark 82 Handicap, which will attract top gallopers from across regional, provincial and metropolitan New South Wales.

This year, Arrowfield have generously donated a nomination to highly touted second year stallion, Hitotsu.

Hitotsu is a freakish son of Japanese stallion, Maurice and won the Australian Derby-Victorian Derby Derby as well as the Australian Guineas.

A SCHOLARSHIP O

WITH A DIFFERENCE

By DALLAS REEVES

ne goal of the Dubbo Winter Whisky Festival (DWWF) is community interaction and another is providing industry opportunities and empowerment.

The DWWF’s unique scholarship program is testament to the latter.

First awarded in 2023, the DWWF partners with The Establishment Bar Dubbo to offer a scholarship to attend the “Fundamentals of Spirit Production – A Boutique Perspective” at Adelaide, South Australia. ˇ˛˜˦ Ѓ˩˘ʠ˗˔ˬ ˜ˡ˧˘ˡ˦˜˩˘ ˖ˢ˨˥˦˘ ˧˔˞˘˦ a practical and industry-oriented approach to introduce distillation theory and practice – before diving deeper into gin and whisky production, the DWWF website states.

Up to $1000 in travel vouchers are also provided to help the winner get to and from Adelaide.

Last year’s inaugural winner Jock Sweeney now works at Winding Road Distillery Co at Tintenbar in the Northern Rivers region of NSW. He is from Glen Innes and the type of recipient the scholarship sets out to reward, someone from regional NSW looking to become a part of the distillery industry.

“It was around giving back to the community,” Rob Bond from the DWWF said.

“The fact that nothing like this is offered anywhere in Australia makes it unique. Ϣʼ˧Ϡ˦ ʛ˗˜˦˧˜˟˟˘˥ˬʜ ˦˨˖˛ ˔ ˙˔ˠ˜˟ˬ Ѓ˘˟˗ʡϣ Distillery is no different to all walks of life where sometimes all someone needs is an opportunity to turn a

passion into a vocation.

“There are people in regional NSW, that don’t have these opportunities, don’t know where to look, don’t know what to do,” Rob said. ˇ˛˘ ˘ˡ˗ ˚ˢ˔˟ ˜˦ ˧ˢ Ѓˡ˗ ˦ˢˠ˘ˢˡ˘ with a passion for distilling and place them into the industry.

The scholarship is only to people aged between 18 and 29 based in regional NSW. It is not necessary to have worked in distillery before, but people must ˛˔˩˘ ˔ˡ ˜ˡ˧˘˥˘˦˧ ˜ˡ ˧˛˘ Ѓ˘˟˗ ˔ˡ˗ ˛ˢˣ˘ to one day be a part of the industry.

Applications close in early June and for more information and terms and conditions of application prospective entrants can go to the DWWF website.

Applications will be assessed by Dave Withers (founder of Archie Rose Distilling Co and original local Orange lad, a Dubbo Regional Council management team member and a board member from Destination NSW. The winner will be announced at the 2024 DWWF at Dubbo Turf Club on Sunday, June 15.

Athol’s farewell looms after a lifetime of bird breeding and showing

By DALLAS REEVES ATHOL Morrison has dedicated a sizeable portion of his life to show canaries, and the champion bird breeder will have what is set to be his last exhibit at this year’s Dubbo Show at Dubbo Showground next weekend.

Athol still has around 40 canaries – Yorkshires, Glosters and Dimorphics – and also has sold his birds across New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria.

He has won a couple of top awards in Sydney but the highlight of his 65-year career was winning three awards at the Melbourne Bird Show in 2018, including the marquee title of Grand Champion Bird. One of the Australia’s leading breeders, Ian Mesley from Benalla, was the judge in Melbourne.

Athol’s team also took out the Reserve and Best Opposite Sex awards at the titles where more than 170 birds competed.

“It was a thrill to win the big one (Grand Champion Bird),” he said.

“There were only the three awards and I got the three of them.”

In 2017, one of his canaries won the Reserve title at the Melbourne Bird Show.

Athol has showed birds across Australia and been a frequent Grand Champion Bird winner at the Dubbo Show.

It’s been a hobby that started before he married his wife Margaret.

However, the 87-year-old has a restricted drivers’ licence which means he can only drive within a 10-kilometre radius of his Dubbo home.

This means that he cannot travel away to compete at other shows, which has been a passion for him.

Asked if the 2024 Dubbo Show would be his last would be his last, Athol said: “I think so, yes. I love showing and have done well in shows.

“I’ve cut right down now, there is a fair bit of work in it, cleaning cages and so forth.”

Athol plans to show about eight of his birds at Dubbo.

He also fondly recalls wins at the Bathurst and Gulgong shows, and in events in Sydney, Yass and Wollongong and many others among his travels.

He has a simple method for housing his team of 40-plus birds.

“I have a double garage, I put the car in one side and the birds in the other,” Athol noted.

But there are also some subtle-

ties of the trade.

Yorkshire canaries aren’t the best parents, Athol noted.

Glosters are good feeders, he said.

“You just need a bit of knowhow and you have to start off with top birds and form a line and carry it on,” he said.

“You can pick them… a 60-degree stance, feather and type.

There is a fair bit in it. Quietness is important so they can stand up and look at the judge and not flut-

ter around.”

Athol worked as a bricklayer and helped construct the Amaroo Hotel. He also operated a school bus, and stated 70 kids at one time was “a lot of noise”.

Outside of work, aside from when he was busy training greyhounds in the 1970s and 1980s, he has always had his birds.

His favourite greyhound was Teragram, named after his wife Margaret, but spelt backwards.

According to Athol, Teragram was

The female greyhound won multiple times at Mudgee and was first past the finishing post around 17 times.

THE Macquarie River is more than just the ribbon-of-life that skirts our CBD. Newly launched viewing platforms and walkways are part of long-term council plans to make it the centre of our social and cultural renewal.

The recent official opening of the shared pathway along the riverbank, represents the first-stage of a project that will eventually include a performance space and outdoor theatre, Dubbo Mayor Councillor Mathew Dickerson explained.

“This is Stage I, and includes the walkway and four cantilevered viewing platforms, but it’s more about taking-advantage of the area, we’ve got the Tracker Riley Precinct, and lots of people use that now, ” Cr Dickerson said.

“We’re really developing it into a wonderful space near our CBD, to take advantage of it, for locals to really engage with the precinct,” he added.

The project also included construction of a new boat ramp and adjacent parking areas with the pathway providing 330 metres of “all-abilities” access pavement and viewing platforms overlooking the Macquarie River.

In more good news, approximately 90 per cent of the construction of the project was undertaken by local businesses.

“The shared pathway was predominantly-built by Dubbo Region locals.

“It shows that we have the resources and the talent here, to undertake major projects such as this, and position ourselves for growth in the years ahead,” Cr Dickerson said proudly.

The walkways are only the beginning of the multi-million dollar project that will include an outdoor performance space, he explained.

“The idea is you can take a walk, have a picnic lunch, that it becomes somewhere where people relax and enjoy it as a recreation area.

“Stage II will include building of an entertainment area… we’ve got an oval that is a natural amphitheatre, and we’re going to build a mini-stage where events can be hosted for local entertainment,” Cr Dickerson revealed.

Former Dubbo Deputy Mayor and now Labor Party Legislative Councillor Stephen Lawrence said, after the opening, that the project was always intended to ensure better use of our greatest natural asset.

“It was really great to open the shared pathway beside the CBD today,” Mr Lawrence said.

“This important ongoing project, aims to integrate the river more into the life of the community, that’s its purpose,” he concluded.

BUILDING BIG!

Inland rail renewable energy zone part of regional boom Infrastructure boom is starting to revitalise regional Australia with a 75 per cent increase in investment fuelling major projects like inland rail network the Orana renewable energy zones, a leading industry figure has said.

Regional Director at CaSE Civil & Structural Engineering, Daniel Taylor, said that that these initiatives are designed not only to close the urban-rural divide, but also to stimulate local economies, improve connectivity, and foster sustainable development outside major cities.

“These projects are not just about building; they represent a fundamental shift towards empowering our regional communities,” Taylor explained.

“By providing skilled individuals with the opportunity

to engage in significant developments right in their backyard, we’re not just keeping talent local; we’re redefining what it means to ‘build big,’ These initiative are a testament to a commitment to not only drive regional growth but also to challenge the traditional pull towards urban centres. Emphasising the indispensable role of digital connectivity in infrastructure development, Taylor said: “It’s about creating a sustainable future that values the unique contributions of all areas, urban and regional alike.

“Digital connectivity is at the core of modern infrastructure projects, transforming how we approach development in regional Australia.”

He said that digital connectivity is the enabler of so-

phisticated construction and monitoring technologies that are changing the game – like using drones for land surveying and employing real-time data analytics to oversee large-scale projects.

“Such advancements are only possible with robust internet services, which are critical for integrating these technologies into our daily operations.”

This integration is driving innovation, empowering regional communities, and bridging the development gap between rural and urban settings. Ultimately, it’s about more than just connectivity; it’s about leveraging that connectivity to make infrastructure development smarter, more efficient, and inclusive for all Australians,” he concluded.

Ray Winslow Happy 100th Birthday

By KEN SMITH

Elton Ray Winslow born on the April 2, 1924, to parents Adelaide and Blayney, growing up on a dairy farm in Bowraville, NSW. Ray attended the local primary school at Simpson Ridge and attended Coffs Harbour High School. He joined the CBC Bank at age 16 and his first branch was Werris Creek.

Ray then joined the Army when the war broke out, enlisting at Inverell as a signaller.

On June 17, 1942, aged 18 years old, Ray discharged from the Army, only to enlist in the Royal Australian Air Force on December 2, 1942.

Ray embarked to the UK on February 15, 1944, as Airman Pilot and was promoted to FSGT Pilot July 16 that same year. From October, 1944, to July, 1945, Ray flew Hurricane, Oxford and Spitfire aircraft.

Ray was commissioned in July, 1945, and on his return to Australia, retained the rank of Pilot Officer on discharge.

Ray rejoined the CBC bank after the war ended and was sent to various country branches including Inverell, Nowra, Gloucester and Orange. He then went on to become branch manager at Mandurama, Grafton and Brisbane and, in due course, regional manager for Western NSW, based in Dubbo.

Ray retired and moved with his wife Helen to five acres at Darby’s Falls near Cowra, on the Lachlan River, indulging in his love of gardening where he created a “Garden of Eden”.

Ray and Helen remained there for 20 years before moving back to Dubbo, due to Helen’s declining health.

Ray has served the community and veterans for 60 years with Legacy, which – combined with his service during WW2 – represents an enormous dedication and sense of duty.

Happy 100th Birthday Ray, and thank you for service.

Robin, Ray and Bev.

‘Worst 24 hours in in Australia’s history’ Local Digger James identified after 108 years

By DAVID DIXON THE Battle of Fromelles was one of those bloody Western Front quagmires that were such a tragic feature of World War I, with the remains of a local soldier now identified more than a century after the conflict.

Local historian Patrick Bourke recently contacted Dubbo Photo News with an Australian War Memorial announcement, revealing that the remains of one local lad, the late Private Herbert James Graham, were among seven Australians identified from an unmarked grave in northern France.

“Private Graham died during the Battle of Fromelles in July, 1916, and was buried in a mass grave during the war,” Patrick said. “He has now been identified in France, and will be reburied in the new Fromelles War Cemetery in France.

With strong local ties, three local communities can lay claim to one of the forgotten thousands who died during The Great War. “With links to Dubbo, Geurie, and Wellington,

local Dubbo historians Trevor Munro and Graham Hosken have a story about Private Herbert Graham in their book, Wellington’s Finest.

“My great uncle George Henry Bourke is also included in their book,” Patrick revealed.

Known as “James”, Graham was attached to both the 20th Australian Infantry and 54th Australian Infantry Battalions and saw service in Egypt and the Western Front after enlisting at Dubbo in September, 1915, before embarking overseas from Sydney in December on the HMAT Berrima (A35).

His parents were Thomas Albert and Alice (nee Dulling) Graham of Geurie, and Herbert had two brothers, three sisters, one half-brother, and three half-sisters.

He was killed in action on July 19–20, 1916, aged only 24, with his remains one of the seven Australian soldiers whose identities have now been restored, some 108 years after their deaths.

The seven died after having fought their way into enemy positions, and were later buried by

German forces in an unmarked mass grave which lay undiscovered until 2007.

The others were Private Alfred William Ansell (serving under the alias “Fitch”), Private George Robert Barnatt, Corporal Percy George Barr, Private William Christopher Brumby, Lance Corporal Harold Thompson Smith, and Private Ernest Frank Studdon (serving under the alias “Welling”).

The Battle of Fromelles involved the 5th Australian Division and the British 61st Division with historians describing it as “the worst 24 hours in Australia’s history”, a costly military disaster in which more than 5500 Australians were either killed, wounded, or taken prisoner within a matter of hours.

The seven men will now have their headstones re-dedicated on the anniversary of the Battle in mid-July, Chief of Army Lieutenant General Simon Stuart has revealed.

“The identifications are an opportunity to reflect on the service of these seven soldiers,” Lieut Gen Stuart said.

GRAEME HOSKEN. COURTESY OF WELLINGTON MUSEUM.

“Fromelles was the first major action fought by Australian troops on the Western Front, and the first time they were confronted with devastating artillery and machine-gun fire,” he added.

He said that, facing mud-

dled tactics and strategy, the Diggers showed admirable fighting qualities.

“Despite impossible odds, Australian soldiers still succeeded in crossing ‘No Man’s Land’ and breaching the enemy positions, which is where these

seven men were killed in close combat.

“We think of their loved ones who never knew their fate, and all who have served and continue to serve,” Lieut Gen Stuart concluded.

Picnic on Wednesday to celebrate Family Day Carers’ great local work DOING great work for dozens of local families with pre-school children, Dubbo Family Day Care are getting ready to celebrate National Family Day Care Week with a special picnic next Wednesday.

The local group is one of the thousands of family day care educators, service staff, families and children taking part in the annual, week-long celebration.

Celebrating its 12th year, National Family Day Care Week runs from Monday, May 6, and aims to highlight the vital role family day care educators and services play in the development and well-being of over 75,000 Australian children.

The week is a chance to acknowledge the unique benefits of small group settings, personalised educational programming and flexible hours of care that fami-

ly day care provides to Australian children each and every day, Family Day Care Australia Chief Executive Officer Andrew Paterson said.

“National Family Day Care Week is a wonderful time for the family day care sector to come together nationally and reflect on the important role family day care plays in the lives of Australian children, families and communities,” Mr Paterson said.

“It is wonderful to see Dubbo Family Day Care taking part in the celebrations,” he added.

Baz is Horizons Men’s Shed men’s table-setting winner

Barry Harvey was the lucky winner of a hand-made table setting for a recent raffle by the Horizons Village Men’s Shed. The table setting was made by Barrie Cox, one of the Men’s Shed members.

For many families, small group settings, home environments and the bond created between educators and children are a deciding factor in selecting family day care as their early learning option of choice.

“The natural home environment and one-on-one attention that family day care provides means children receive the attention they need to thrive, and educators are able to follow their passion and educate their way,” Mr Paterson said.

“A number of recent reports have

highlighted the critical role that family day care can play for families across Australia, in particular for families needing care outside the usual 9-to-5; the flexibility and agility of family day care and its unique approach to early learning, makes it an essential part of the education and care landscape,” he concluded.

JOCK HITS FIRST CENTURY, NOW WAITING FOR HIS BIRTHDAY CARD FROM THE KING! FORMER long-time local Jock Dunn has had his big 100th birthday, now he’s waiting for his birthday card from the King!

Jock – who hit the century mark on Thursday, April 18 – was a resident of Dubbo for more than 50 years, and now resides in full-time care in Bingara Hospital in the state’s north-west.

He was well-known in and around Dubbo, working many years as an electrical engineer for Macquarie County Council.

His wife Joan passed away in 2017 with their son Ewen also now residing in Bingara with his wife, Norma.

Bingara Hospital staff helped Jock celebrate his 100th birthday with his family, other residents, and nurses and a luncheon, cake, and balloons, before they all joined in singing Happy Birthday followed by three cheers.

Jock is now expectantly waiting for a letter from King Charles III, who hasn’t been in the best of health himself lately, his daughter-in-law, Norma explained.

“He is really looking forward to the letter from the King congratulating him… he hasn’t got it yet, but the nurses remind him of it every day,” Norma said.

by Gary Kopervas

ARIES: Take time to rest to regain your energy and enthusiasm. You’ll follow your intuition to discover a new spiritual path, pushing you to adopt a more exciting lifestyle.

TAURUS: Your vivid imagination could lead you to undertake a successful artistic project. Make an effort to arrange a festive get-together with your friends. It will be well worth it. Be mindful of distractions at work.

GEMINI: You’ll be tasked with organising a social event or an important meeting as part of your job. You’ll overcome your shyness and discover your more extroverted side to excel in this role.

CANCER: You’ll be given new and stimulating responsibilities at work. These tasks will allow you to discover and develop skills you didn’t know you had, leading to a raise in the coming weeks.

LEO: You’ll be given the opportunity to embark on a surprising adventure, such as a spiritual journey. This experience will broaden your horizons and guide your personal and professional development. It could also reveal itself through a sporting activity.

VIRGO: You’ll be filled with a range of emotions that will lead you to a significant trans- formation. Consider making drastic changes, such as moving to a new home, exploring new horizons or changing jobs.

LIBRA: You’ll be faced with an agonizing choice. Think carefully before deciding. Rushing into a decision you have to reconsider is a waste of time. Balance is the key. Know how to weigh the pros and cons.

SCORPIO: You’ll have a lot of work to do this week. You could be entrusted with a confidential file with a significant financial payoff. You could also consider starting your own business, which will be very rewarding.

SAGITTARIUS: You may experience love at first sight and connect with a potential soulmate. You’ll have an instant connection. However, family considerations could complicate things before fully investing in the relationship.

CAPRICORN: Watch what you say, especially around certain people who can’t hold their tongues. You’re planning a move and will spend time decorating to personalise your new space.

AQUARIUS: Someone may tell you a confusing secret. You’ll wonder whether revealing it to the people involved would be the right thing to do. You may need to re-evaluate your circle of friends, especially if debt or betrayal are involved.

PISCES: Getting a promotion could solve some of your financial problems. Having a conversation with your boss could lead to this advancement, paving the way for a more promising future. Talking to your better half ensures you’re both getting what you want from the relationship.

LOCAL paddlers, the Outback Dragons, didn’t waste their trip across the mighty Nullarbor Plain recently, after picking-up some of the nation’s precious medals in the greater west.

“Outback Dragons have put Dubbo ‘on the map’ with a Bronze Medal effort in the Senior B 200-metres,” Publicity Officer, Rhonda Betts said.

“We are very proud bring home some bling!” she added.

The Outbacks are one of our established dragon boat clubs, paddling each week on the Macquarie River, you can check-out their Facebook page for more info, if you are interested in ever having a go!

Roos Juniors return “Across the Ditch”

During the school holidays, the Dubbo Kangaroos Junior Rugby Club, flew across the Tasman for their annual tour of the Shaky Isles.

One of the tour managers, Terry Mitchell described it as another epic visit.

“The boys learned a lot leading up to the trip, and then grew individually and as a group up against the strong New Zealand teams,” he said.

MANY of the Sundy Combo bowlers were involved in Pennants last week but, those who played, enjoyed a fine sunny morning.

In an early game, a five-count “save” on end seven, gave Paul Martin, Helene Emblen, and Rob Pfeiffer a slight advantage over N McKechnie (Son), Ruby Stockings, and Pete McKechnie (Dad), mirroring the five the latter scored to open.

One shot up, Paul, Helene, and Rob, continued to press, adding another five on end 11 which saw them hold-on for a 16-13 win.

John Zeb led for Steve Kelly and Pete Sinclair, as they gelled as a team scoring four counts three times for the first half. John was the Swinger, doing a good job as he also led for Greg Brown and Al Andriske. Steve, Pete, and John turned the corner leading by 14-9, added another quad, clinching a 24-12 win. They were awarded second for the morning, after a count-back.

One of the features that Sundy bowls produces, is that bowlers do not know who they will be playing with or against until they get to the rink.

On Rink Nine, Ron McCauley found he was to play (his wife) Sue McCauley, while Chris Castlehouse had Gordon Lummis as her direct opponent, and Gordon Scott needed to continue his good form against Ross Pharo. The first three ends were wins to Gordon and his side, the others? Well, a single on four was their only result of the first eight. Nine down at the break was insurmountable and Ron, Chris, and Gordon, rolled-out as winners, 17-13, and third place.

Polly Ley lobbed-in from Stanford and teamed with Sue Armstrong and Ian Humphries for a crash course on our synthetic green. Ros Joseph and Frank Armstrong had Bryan O’Sullivan as their skip with some authority. Polly adapted well to the new surface and helped her partners to take six of the second eight. They mounted numbers most “pollies” would enjoy, taking the game 18-11.

Having been rolling in the cellars during the first eight ends, Roger Sherwin and Mel Giddings almost gave the game away. Roger, after a lengthy break, bowled very well, but it was John Kennedy and Pete Ruzans who outdid the others, winning six of the early ends to turn up by 10-4. Mel kept trumpeting “second half comeback”. A triple on 11, moved him and Roger close. A second treble on 13, gave them the lead and put John and Pete under the pump. They felt the heat as Mel’s “comeback” completed a 16-12 victory.

First place for the morning went to Julie Brown and Graham Ross, who kept notching-up doubles against Allan Stratford with Kevin Scott. They won 10 of the 16 ends and finished up 18-6 stars of the morning.

Mixed blessings as Demons open 2024 season at South Dubbo Oval Contributed by KRISTEN COADY FOR the first time in five years, Dubbo Demons played a Central West AFL opening match at home on Saturday. Perfect weather conditions drew a crowd keen to see the Demons get the season underway.

It was mixed blessings for the “D’s” however, with the premiership-winning Women’s side, at least, showing some remarkable skills.

With new President, Kaitlyn Waldie at the helm, new coaches across all three grades, and some exciting infrastructure improvements happening at the grounds, there were plenty of positive changes in the air for the club.

This round, therefore, was the first real chance to put all the pre-season energy and excitement into practice.

“Waldie” was heartened by the presence of sponsors, life members, and junior players amongst the crowd, and said the installation of the new electronic scoreboard in time for the season launch, was an exciting upgrade for the oval and a huge benefit to players on the field.

The Demons faced-off against Bathurst Giants in all three grades.

In the Tier Two Men’s competition, both teams out to prove themselves after failing to make the finals last year. New coach, Damien Talbot, is working with a re-invigorated Reserves team this year, with a mix of experienced players, junior players coming through the ranks, and those playing their first game of Australian Football this year.

The Demon’s newest life member, Trevor Dutschke, for instance, played alongside nephew Malachi, who was awarded Best-on-Ground for the team. Greg Manton won Player’s Player in his first-ever match, working hard in the midfield all game.

Scores were closely tied at the quarter and half-time, with the visitors having a slight edge over the Demons who had failed to convert a number of crucial scoring shots in the second quarter. Despite three goals from Josh Anasis at full forward, the Giants pulledaway after half-time, and finished with 14 points over the Demons by 9.5.59 to 5.15.45.

Talbot was impressed by the side, however, which he calls the “best Demon’s Ressies we’ve seen in years”, noting their attack on the ball and discipline on

the field. He is confident they can work on polishing skills and finishing in front of goal as the season progresses.

The Women’s match was also expected to be a hotly-contested affair as it was a replay of last year’s grand final which the Demon’s Women won in a tight match.

Former coach Peter Martinoli was on hand to present the 2023 Premiership flag to Lynton Auld, who took over the reins this year.

Auld, alongside assistant coach Tim McCloud and the leadership group, has been working hard on skills and strategy in the pre-season, and the pay-off came in the way of an outstanding victory – 12.10.82 to 4.6.30. In the spirit of sportsmanship, the Demons loaned several players to the Giants, who came with only 13 for the match.

Four women also made their debut for the Ds and showed that they will be valuable additions to the squad this season. Emma Harris ran all day in the midfield, with Abbee Milgate, Rachel Fairman, and Amy Shephard, frustrating

the visitors in the defensive 50.

Auld said he was delighted by the team effort all across the park, which was enhanced by some individual stand-outs, including Best-on-Ground, Molly Mayall who kicked six goals, and Kristen Coady bagging three. The Player’s Player award went to Dana Taylor, who returned to the Demons this year after a break, and immediately made her presence felt

across the whole field, including scoring two goals for the Giants!

The Tier One match was highly-anticipated with the Giants having their first kick-out since winning the 2023 title and the Demons showcasing several new players.

Alec Niblock and Daniel Searle bring experience after playing in other leagues to add depth to the Central West talent pool. Dylan

Fairall made the leap from player to coach this year, and has been hard at work instilling skills, fitness, and positive culture into the playing group. Dylan was impressed with defenders Will Wakeling and Max Grant, who were strong all day, and singled-out ruck Nathan Somerville who made the move to the forward line later in the game and proved to be a strong leading target.

Brody Roche impressed up front with some astonishing flying marks and four goals for the day.

The Demons went down to the visitors by 9.7.61 to 14.12.96, but Fairall is positive about the prospects for future rounds.

He noted that Cooper Brien and Bailey Brien were outstanding for the visitors and, if the team can work on shutting-down key opposition players, they are sure to narrow this gap.

Demons are on the road for the next few weeks, travelling to Cowra and Parkes. The next home game will coincide with the Sir Doug Nicholls Indigenous Round on Saturday, May 18.

Parkrun is fun, as nonagenarian Les hits the big century last Saturday!

Contributed by HANNAH MORLEY PARKRUN is all about fun, with local nonagenarian legend, Les Brookfield, taking-out his big 100th event on the weekend.

Joined by friends and family, along with around 350 people from the local parkrun community, Les the sprightly 94-year-old, has been participating in parkrun since 2018.

Before last Saturday’s event, Les joked with one of Dubbo parkrun’s Directors, Tim Morris, by saying his family were there in case he needed to be “carried home”.

They needn’t have worried however, as Les set a cracking pace, completing his milestone 5km event in just under 70 minutes, his red wheelie walker fitted with custom parkrun plates to mark the occasion.

Les crossed the finish line to the resounding applause, cheers, and admiration from dozens of parkrunners who had stayed back just to see him collect his finish token for his first century.

Celebrations continued for Les at his home afterwards, with family and friends joining him for a special post-parkrun morning tea to mark this wonderful achievement.

Parkrun is a free event held at Sandy Beach from 8am each Saturday, with participants as young as four, and as old as 94… who could that be?

Like Les, runners and walkers of all ages, shapes, fitness levels, and abilities, are always welcome! All images: Dubbo Photo News

Christie and Hood Castlereagh League Round One Big wins and a close finish, as Season 2024, gets underway Contributed by BRYSON LUFF OPENING round of the 2024 Christie and Hood Castlereagh League competition has thrown-up some interesting results with big wins going to the Cobar Roosters, the Coolah ‘Roos, and Coonabarabran Unicorns. In the final game, the defending Premiers, the Gulgong Terriers, also managed to get home in a thrilling game against the Baradine Magpies.

Playing at their beloved Tom Knight Oval in Cobar, the Roosters gave an early indication that they will be out to go one better than their Grand Final loss in 2023, when they handed the visiting Narromine Jets a hefty loss, racing in for nine tries in an emphatic 58-14 win!

Their grand final opponents, and the reigning premiers from last year, the Gulgong Bull Terriers, got away with a very hardfought 24-20 win over the Baradine Magpies in their game played at Baradine.

Following the Magpies recent good form in trials and at the Castlereagh knock-out, many thought that the black-and-whites would get the win in “Magpie Land”, and they very nearly did, just falling short in what would have been a major boost to morale for the 2024 season.

At Coolah, the ‘Roos continued on their winning way from the knock-out the previous Saturday, registering a large and impressive 40-6 win over a Gilgandra Panther outfit that would have been hard-pressed to have been able to squeeze any more errors into an 80-minute game of rugby league.

Gilgandra’s inept display takes nothing away from the fact that the ‘Roos were way too good on the day, and that they mean business in their comeback year to the Castlereagh competition!

In a high-scoring game, the Coonabarabran Unicorns started their 2024 campaign with a strong win over their arch-rivals, the Coonamble Bears, taking the encounter 48-30.

The match of the round this Saturday, will obviously be the block-

buster 2023 Grand Final rematch between the Gulgong Bull Terriers and the Cobar Roosters, which is expected to draw a huge crowd to Gulgong’s Billy Dunn Oval.

Whilst it may not be the premiership silverware that the Roosters’ would have liked to have claimed at the same ground in the 2023 season finale, the time-honoured Boronia Cup is up for grabs, and Cobar would like nothing better than to have it strapped into the front seat of their bus on the re-

turn journey come Saturday night, whilst the Terriers will be going tooth and nail to retain it.

In other games, both the Narromine Jets and the Gilgandra Panthers will be looking to bounce back from their respective heavy defeats last Saturday when they clash at Narromine, whilst Coolah will be out to secure an away win when they face the difficult assignment of upending the Coonamble Bears at Coonamble.

In what should be a fantastic battle at Baradine, the Magpies will resume hostilities against their arch-rivals, the Coonabarabran Unicorns, in what should be another classic local derby!

Volunteers gear up for Coonamble Rodeo

WITH one of the biggest shows in the Western Plains less than two months away, organisers of the Coonamble Rodeo & Campdraft are looking to push crowd numbers further than ever.

“We do it because we love doing it,” Coonamble Rodeo President Paul Wheelhouse said, who heads the volunteer committee who manage the whole event.

“Every year we try to improve it and make it a better show.”

He expects up to 4000 spectators and competitors in Coonamble between 7 and 10 June, more than doubling the town’s population over three days.

Over 1000 cowboys and cowgirls will enter the rodeo and camp draft, with prize dollars stretching into the tens of thousands.

“We pay out in excess of $90 000 in prize money,” Coonamble Rodeo & Campdraft Secretary Steve Butler said.

“A competitor in the rodeo could win between five and six thousand dollars in an event.” There’ll be no lack of action over the weekend as riders steel their nerves for roughstock events including steer wrestling, calf roping and, of course, the bronc and

bull riding, where contestants have to stay on the beasts for eight seconds with one hand in the air.

Show-goers seeking a little less physical contact will have the campdraft events starting from Friday lunchtime.

That’s where riders have to separate a steer or heifer from a yard with six to

eight cattle. The rider then has to steer the beast out of the yard into a larger arena, where they drive it around the course roughly in the shape of a three-leaf clover.

The finals for the campdraft will run on the event’s final day on Monday.

Both campdrafters and

rodeo competitors will come from right up and down eastern Australia.

“Most competitors are coming in from the eastern seaboard, you might get an odd one that comes from the west,” Steve said.

“Novice events are growing, which is a good thing for the industry. It means that there’s young cowboys

coming on.” For the second year in a row, spectators will be able to walk across the Castlereagh Highway to the showground directly from the camping area opposite, which is expected to host around 1000 spectators in 20 acres.

Paul said having the camping ground will allow greater numbers of visi-

tors to Coonamble, where accommodation is often booked out well in advance for the town’s signature event.

“This rodeo’s gotten that big now,” Paul said. “There was nowhere to camp in town.” “The ground has just opened up so much more room.

“People just want to be somewhere safe and camp, and it’s such a good area because they’ve only got to walk across.” The ground will be split by a fence into two areas, one for the younger party crowd, the other for your family-type spectators.

The ground will have two security guards operating at the site, as well as mobile lighting towers and toilet facilities.

“It’s a lot of work just to get it all ready. Some people think it just happens in three days, but it happens months and months before that just getting things all in place.”

The use of the paddock has the support of Coonamble Shire Council, which Steve said has provided the area mapping and traffic management of the highway near the ground.

People can pay $20 for entry at the gate off River Road or book online at 123 Tix.

Rhinos rumble the Wombats, in fine start for new coach, Conn

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL DUBBO Rhinos continued their impressive start to the New Holland Cup 2024 rugby season with an impressive 39-22 win against last year’s Minor Premiers, Mudgee Wombats.

The result came only seven days after they had drawn with Premiers Parkes away last weekend, pleasing results which have provided a huge lift for the Gold-and-Blacks under new coach, Graham Conn.

In more good news, the Rhinos have found a player who can get them around the park in half, Darcy Richardson, who has forged a solid partnership with fly-half, Nash Forgione.

The locals ran in six tries to three in the result, earning a welcome bonus point. For keen rugby fans, you can catch the big boys in action this weekend against Narromine on Friday night from 7.50.

Meaningful moment, the players pause for Anzac Day at the weekend’s the New Holland Cup fixture.

Local Derby remembers our fallen heroes Young Vets carrying the colours

BLUE, BLUE, BLUE DAY… with a touch of green!

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL BACK in the day, the local newspaper would publish their Monday edition, in the colour corresponding with the primary colours of the winner of the local football derby between CYMS and Macquarie.

Over the past several years, this tradition would have seen the blue of Macquarie dry-up as the CYMS Fishies dominated recent battles, but that all changed on Sunday!

In a near clean-sweep, Macquarie Raiders took the League Tag 32-0, Reserve Grade snatched a

last minute win with a field goal by 25-24 and, in an heroic effort, the Raiders upset the Fishies by 22-16. This is despite playing 60 minutes of the match with only 12 men after five-eighth, Filisone Pauta, was sent-off for a high tackle on CYMS winger, Ratu Roko.

The only touch of green on the day, was in the Under 18s, where CYMS took the points 26-12.

In other results, last year’s grand finalists, Mudgee fell 46-22 against Orange CYMS, Bathurst St Pats defeated Panthers 36-24, Wellington beat Nyngan in Nyngan by 34-22, and Orange Hawks outpointed Lithgow Wolves by 26-4.

There was a solemn atmosphere as teams walked slowly, purposely and with respect onto Apex Oval on Sunday. The combination of club pride and long-term rivalry were put aside as servicemen bore the flags and The Ode was recited and bugler sounded Last Post and Rouse.

Then the action started as Macquarie gave the CYMS greens the Blues!
