The First Word WELCOME to the Snowy Mountains summer, a time of year where there is so much happening it is nearly hard to keep up.

One thing is certain though, the mountains are looking a treat, the rivers are running and the lakes glistening in the alpine region.

Summer is a season where there is no great hurry to go anywhere or do anything, so you can take time to explore all the wonderful towns and attractions at your own leisurely place.

RŅ ŹĠĤŰ ăûĤŹĤŎŅ ƛŎƀ ƕĤĺĺ ƱŅû ŨĺăŅŹƛ Ŏė valuable information to help plan your holiday or suggest ideas you explore while you’re hear.

Plus, there has been plenty of news as well with future developments, new restaurants opening, celebrations and anniversaries, so enjoy everything ŰƀłłăŬ ĠØŰ ŎŅ ŎƫăŬ̖ There has also been news for the resorts recently, which will be expanded on in 2019 on our website and future editions.

PERISHER NEWS At the recent Ski Lodges Organisation of Perisher Smiggins and Guthega (S.L.O.P.E.S) annual general meeting the Deputy Premier John Barilaro announced that the NSW Government had approved NPWS entering into direct negotiations with Perisher in relation to a possible head lease over the Perisher Range Resorts of Perisher, Smiggin Holes and Guthega.

At the same meeting Peter Brulisauer, !ĠĤăė {ŨăŬØŹĤŅę {ƬõăŬ Ŏė ăŬĤŰĠăŬ indicated that Perisher are in discussions with the Department of Planning regarding proposed changes at Mt Perisher.

The project would include replacement of the Mt Perisher double chairlift and triple chairlift with a new six seat detachable quad chairlift. Perisher would also like to widen the run, adjust snowmaking alignment and renovation of the Mt Perisher double chair restaurant.

THREDBO DEVELOPMENT Thredbo announced on their website they have recently lodged a number of development applications with the NSW Department of Planning and Environment.

Following is content from their statement.

Pending approval, the potential developments include the replacement of Merritts double chairlift with a state of the art high-speed 8 person Gondola plus a development of a new Merritts Mountain House restaurant and conference facility.

Expansion of Friday Flat’s retail and rental facility, expansion of Thredbo’s children program centre Thredboland and additional car parking at Friday Flat.

Snowmaking upgrades to ‘Dream Run’ providing more consistent snow conditions from the Cruiser Area to Friday

Flat would also be proposed.

Snowy Mountains Magazine will keep you posted on all the developments as they unfold ŎƔăŬ ŹĠă õŎłĤŅę ƛăØŬŰ Ĥė ăƔăŬƛŹĠĤŅę ĤŰ ƱŬŰŹĺƛ approved by NPWS and then the respective resorts. At present they are just plans and lodged Development Applications (DA).

The snow industry has seen a number of great seasons and both Perisher and Thredbo have had seen record numbers which is a great indication Australians love the resorts. Snow sports enthusiasts always welcome any new additions from the resorts, so stay tuned.

INTERESTING subjects are plentiful across the Snowy Mountains and Wildbrumby’s 1953 K-model Bedford truck has become one of those subjects.

Here is a little insight to the history of the vehicle.

The truck is a familiar sight on the Alpine Way where it is often parked at the distillery gates to welcome passing visitors.

Having grown up with Bedford Trucks, distiller Brad Spalding, bought the K-model 13 years ago to transport goods to and from the distillery.

“It is interesting how many people have grown up with Bedfords,” says Brad, who opened the Wildbrumby Distillery in 2004.

His own Father used to pick up supplies from town to stock their country hotel in a J-model Bedford truck, and it was in this ƔăĠĤõĺă ŹĠØŹ ŬØû ƱŬŰŹ ĺăØŬŅăû ŹŎ ûŬĤƔă̖ “They were such reliable and good trucks, and ours was a second hand model from the Younghusbands stock and station agent in Albury,” he adds.

“It was a very common vehicle after the second world war, and so many of our visitors tell us that they grew up with one.

People really love their Bedford Trucks, and I am no exception.” ƀŹ Ġă ŰØƛŰ ƱŅûĤŅę ĠĤŰ ŎƕŅ ŹŬƀõķ ŹŎ òƀƛ within the local area was no easy task.

“I had been looking for a J-model ăûėŎŬû ŹŬƀõķ ėŎŬ ØęăŰ̐ ØŅû ƱŅØĺĺƛ ŹĠă Glassons from Jimembuen found the K-model for sale in Dalgety”.

Echoing Brad’s own history, the K-model was owned by the local publican at Buckley’s Crossing Hotel.

JOURNEY: Brad Spalding and Toby Evans with the loaded Bedford Truck at the recent MCCR fundraiser near Nimmitabel.

“He’d had it for a couple of years and had wanted to do it up, but eventually he rang me up and said I could buy it,” says Brad.

Dalgety mechanic, Eric Corby, helped Brad with the restoration. “Eric said that he’d been working on the truck since it was new, for various owners in Dalgety,” says Brad.

Once Eric had mechanically restored the truck, it was spray-painted by Barry Parrott, and then the new wooden tray and Wildbrumby logo were added.

“Every time we have a special event or a market day at the distillery it goes out the front with the blackboard,” says Brad.

“We also take it to fundraisers like MCCR (Monaro Committee for Cancer Research), and we’ve done at least a dozen weddings, with the wedding party transported on

hay bales to their reception.”

But its main use is still making deliveries and picking up supplies from town and continues to do a “fantastic job at the distillery as a working truck”, says Brad.

As the highest distillery in Australia, Wildbrumby sells an award-winning range of schnapps, gin and vodka from its distillery door.

Thigh burning lake laps ƛ ŹăƔă !ƀƫ WHEN the Australian Water Ski Speed and Marathon Championships hit Lake Jindabyne in January there will be more on the line than just national titles.

Many of the top end skiers will have an eye on a bigger prize, which is selection for the Australian team for the 2019 World Championships.

The Jindabyne event is one of the selection races, so some skiers will come ƕĤŹĠ Ø ėŎõƀŰ ŎŅ ŰăĺăõŹĤŎŅ ƱŬŰŹ ØŅû ŅØŹĤŎŅØĺ titles may well be secondary.

The World Championships are every two years, and when Ben Gulley competed in Jindabyne in 2017, he had his eye on the world titles that year.

He won every race in 2017 and was crowned World Champion, with Daniel Graziano placing third. Australians have

fared well in the world titles including Chelsea Blight winning the open women and Shantelle King third.

All the best Australian water skiers will be in Jindabyne. When we asked Ben Gulley about what conditions he would like in Jindabyne, he said, “I quite enjoy the rough water, that is my forte.”

“It’s a big commitment (world titles) and most of the racing we do here in Australia is fast river type races, where a lot of the worlds type races are held out in bays and canals, and rougher type venues.

“Some of those rough days that you get in Jindabyne where all you can see is white caps as far as the eye can see, some of our worlds racing will be as rough as that.”

Ben skis behind his father Gerald’s boat Strike Force, always one of the fastest boats and based out of Brisbane.

“We train out in Moreton Bay, which

is probably why we are more orientated around the rougher conditions,” said Ben. “We are out there most weeks, it is very good training water for us. We start in the river and it is about a seven minute run out to the bay and then we generally will do over an hour, so a typical day is up to about an hour and half on the water.

“We are leading into a really, really big season for us and we are focusing on going to the worlds at the end of 2019. But really the prep work starts kind of almost twelve months out, so it has already started.” ̱ÉŎƀ Ņăăû ŹĠØŹ ŰķĤ ƱŹ ŨŬØõŹĤõă̐ ĴƀŰŹ ĺĤķă snow skiing.”

With so many boats doing laps it can be confusing for the spectator, but there is a schedule and the same boats may have

ûĤƫăŬăŅŹ ŰķĤăŬŰ ėŎŬ ûĤƫăŬăŅŹ õĺØŰŰăŰ̖ Ben said generally the boat owner selects the skiers and teams are often locked in for twelve month stints.

“Which is in everyone’s best interest to stick with a team for a period of time.

As you bond as a team you grow, and you generally get more results when your team is together for a longer period of time.”

Organisers have the schedule locked in and Tuesday is the main selection races.

WHOOSH: Dave Warby at 320kmh in September.

N{§{̏ ŹăƔă !ƀƫ̖

Ά

Record attempt in 2019 THE quest for Dave Warby to break his father’s world water speed record edges closure, but it has been a bumpy ride in the later quarter of 2018.

Ken Warby set the record of 511kmh in 1978, when he set a blistering pace on Tumut’s Blowering Dam. It has stood for 40 years.

Dave has been edging closer with small speed increments, which was the intended method, that being slow and steady to see how the boat performs as it ramps up speed.

In early December the team had a few technical issues, so the speed he reached in September of 320kmh is still his fastest

run. The Spirit of Australia II will return in March for another trial run and they may then attempt the record in mid-year if all goes according to plan.

Dave has said the boat has more than enough power, they just need to iron out a few technical issues and have good smooth water.

Ken had the same method of increasing speed and checking the boat each time.

This is a good strategy as it is a dangerous ŰŨŎŬŹ ØŹ ŹĠŎŰă ŰŨăăûŰ̐ ŰŎ õØŅ̵Ź ØƫŎŬû any mistakes.

Children’s book release Alcheringa Flowers LOCAL author and illustrator Toni Cary has released her second children’s story book, Alcheringa Flowers, a tale about spring.

Alcheringa Snow which was released in early 2018 had a dreaming theme. Through the currency of the books the animals will take adventures to all part of the Snowy Mountains. The following two editions of the four book series will be published yearly in November each year.

Toni said the original book had been so well received she has been thrilled with the response.

Apart from a host of local and national distributors, the book has also been distributed overseas with Toni even sending one to the royal family in Denmark, Princess Mary. The royal family replying with a beautiful response.

Toni said she is progressively trying to introduce the book to more children of this region.

“In terms of a book of place, the four books together are a comprehensive coverage of all the animals and fauna that live in this area.”

No matter how many times you visit it is still always fascinating, and we urge all families to take their children for an educational tour of the centre this summer.

Here you can see what hydro plants are running, and at what capacity, even which direction water is being pumped in tunnels. There is a wealth of memorabilia, a great diorama that shows the mountains, valleys, lakes and locations of all the power stations and when you walk through the corridors, there are fascinating photographs.

The kids will love the bike where they can pedal their heart out and make electricity.

The walls are a timeline of the entire project, so you have a great sense of micro eras within the whole scheme.

So take a drive and understand the biggest project in Australian history.

Snowy 2.0 Timeline SNOWY 2.0 is a proposed $4.5 billion Snowy Hydro underground power station that would be located between Talbingo and Tantangara Dams in Kosciuszko National Park.

At this stage it is only in its very early ŰŹØęăŰ ØŅû ŹĠă ƱŅØĺ ĤŅƔăŰŹłăŅŹ ûăõĤŰĤŎŅ was due in December after the Snowy Mountains Magazine went to print.

As you can see by the timeline, 2018 has seen a host of activity which mainly revolved around community consultation, the submission of an EIS for Exploratory Works and the Main Works scoping report has been submitted.

Should the project proceed as planned the timeline gives you an indication of key pieces of the project. Being such a huge project, you can imagine it can

be a moving beast, so rather than lock ĤŅŹŎ ŰŨăõĤƱõ łŎŅŹĠŰ̐ ŹĠă ŹĤłăĺĤŅă ęĤƔăŰ indication only.

In 2019 Exploratory Works would commence near Lobs Hole in the northern area of Kosciuszko National Park. This would involve a tunnel down into the proposed cavern site for geotechnical aspects. ÃĤŹĠĤŅ ŹĠă ƱŬŰŹ ĠØĺė Ŏė ˙˗˘ˠ Ø nØĤŅ Works EIS would be submitted that would involve all aspects of whole project build.

Late 2019 the EIS decision will be expected from the NSW Government and if all approved the Main Works would start ØŨŨŬŎƚĤłØŹăĺƛ ĤŅ ŹĠă ƱŬŰŹ ĠØĺė Ŏė ˙˗˙˗̖ With a huge scope of work to be completed it would not be until into 2022 that the Electrical and Mechanical would commence.

FAST FACTS

Civil contractors will be responsible for excavation of the cavern area and building the structure plus drilling for the two tunnels. A tunnel will run from Tantangara Dam to the underground power station. A second outlet tunnel would then link from the power station to the lower elevation Talbingo Dam. These two tunnels would be reversible to pump back up.

Civil work would take up 80 percent of the main contracting cost to build the structure, the remaining 20 percent would be Electrical and Mechanical contractors who would be responsible for installing all components associated with the generating gear of the power station.

First power is expected by 2024 with ėƀĺĺ õŎłŨĺăŹĤŎŅ Ŏė ƕĠŎĺă ŨŬŎĴăõŹ ƱŅĤŰĠĤŅę by mid 2026.

With the race hub based at an altitude of 1,260m, riders will be tested with over 100km of rugged mountain terrain, flowing technical single tracks, a mammoth ascent and awe-inspiring downhills in some of the best mountain biking found anywhere in the world.

The race stages are based out of Lake Crackenback Resort & Spa and Thredbo which makes this more than just a mountain bike race as athletes have the opportunity to take in all the 4.5 star facilities on offer.

The festival is ready to welcome back some of Australia’s best elite mountain

bikers including reigning champions Andy Blair and Zoe Cuthbert and previous champions Kyle Ward and Samara Sheppard, just a few of the elites who will be in the hunt for mountain glory.

The race is not all about the elite racers as hundreds of weekend warriors and enthusiastic riders join the festival in the age group stage races and Sunday’s 45k, 30k and 15k events which also includes solo and team options. Anyone who rides a mountain bike can be a part of this iconic festival.

The six stages offer a range of diverse terrain and riding experiences and riders wishing to be a part of the 2019 Festival are advised to be quick as entries are close to selling out.

The Snowies Mountain Bike Festival is proudly supported by the NSW Government through its tourism and major events agency Destination NSW.

Epic Perisher bigger and better What does it mean to be a volunteer?

It means giving of yourself in service to a cause.

We do that really well in the Monaro and recently we honoured over 50 community champions and 11 group organisations from across the region with Monaro Service Awards for commitment to volunteering.

The communities we live in would simply not exist if it wasn’t for volunteers.

There are many unrecognised individuals who quietly make a difference across the Snowy Mountains. These people go above and beyond the definition of their role often with little recognition to make the community they live in a better place.

The Monaro Service Awards are designed to honour community champions for their outstanding contribution in areas such as the arts, environment, multiculturalism, education, health, sport, heritage and pastoral care. Some of the Monaro’s finest volunteers were recognised for their selfless contribution to the community.

The award recipients from Cooma, Bombala, Jindabyne and the surrounding region include Brad Austin, Stan and Bronwyn Carter, Karen Clark, Tai Haines, Debra Horton, Zoe Joseph, Linda Milne, Paul Nicholls, Nicole Raine, Melissa Sass, Darren Steinke, Michael Swinney, Kurt Wassink, Lilly Farrell, Lisa Phillips, Jacinta Braun, Anja De Ruijter, Ian Litchfield and Beverley Schornegg.

Group organisations from across the Monaro were also presented with awards including the Cooma Community Garden, Dalgety CWA, Dalgety Hall Society, The Community Chest, St Vincent de Paul Jindabyne, Jerangle/Peak View CWA, Nimmitabel Cemetery Volunteer Committee, Cooma Hospital Auxiliary, Monaro High Leo Club.

Hidden Treasures awards were given and special acknowledgements for 2018 school captains namely Laila Bradshaw and Lucky Tran – Monaro High School, Blake Stevenson and Georgia Jones – Bombala High School, Nicolas Stibbard, Jessica Jauncey and Adam Windsor – Snowy Mountains Christian School, Ethan Inches and Emily Heimann – Jindabyne Central School, Sophie Janota – St Patrick’s Parish School and Cooper de Pagter and Rebecca Matthes – Snowy Mountains Grammar School.

The Monaro is full of many worthwhile and hardworking volunteers. Thank you to Bronnie Taylor MLC who assisted in presenting the awards at special ceremonies in Queanbeyan and Cooma. It’s important we formally thank our volunteers for their contribution to our community. monaro@parliament.nsw.gov.au www.johnbarilaro.com.au 213 Crawford St, (PO Box 998) Queanbeyan NSW 2620 Ph: 02 6299 4899 - Fax: 02 6297 9998 JohnBarilaroMP

SEASON pass holders at Perisher may well be waiting for the 2019 Australian winter, but the beauty of their Epic Australia Pass is it is valid at all Vail Resorts mountains should they want an international snow holiday.

The Northern Hemisphere winter is underway and boy, oh, boy is it looking good!

Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone and Crested Butte in Colorado are enjoying the best start to a winter in over 10 years! The combination of some of the best early season snowfalls have allowed the resorts to open earlier with a heap of terrain.

Still in the United States, Park City in Utah will open another new chair for this coming season, the High Meadow Park Beginner Area.

Park City will also host the 2019 FIS World Freestyle Championships where several Australians are expected to do well.

Across the border in Canada, Whistler Blackcomb will knock your ŰŎõķŰ Ŏƫ ŹĠĤŰ ƕĤŅŹăŬ̐ ĤŅŰŹØĺĺĤŅę three new lifts.

Always a popular resort for Australian snow travellers, this year you can start your day from the upper village with a brand new 10-person gondola to whisk you to the Peak to Peak Gondola connection on Blackcomb.

Whistler and Blackcomb mountains are two behemoth mountains that sit adjacent to each other and combined with the vibrant village is one of the leading resorts in the world.

The Epic Australia Pass gives you access a host of North American resorts, plus Hakuba Valley and just recently announced, Rusutsu in Japan, who are now in alliance with the Epic Australia Pass beginning in the 2019-20 winter season.

NEW LEICHHARDT QUAD CHAIRLIFT On the home front Perisher will also have a new lift for the 2019 season plus additional snowmaking.

The $4.2 million dollar upgrade will see the Leichhardt area perfect for not only advanced skiers and boarders, but beginners as well.

It is now full steam ahead with construction after the existing T-bar was removed before the snow melted. Lift company Doppelmayr have moved in and crews have been hard at work preparing the ground for the upcoming pouring of the foundations.

The new snowmaking installation is underway with new pipeline laid to connect the new snow guns. The new chair and snowmaking will be ready prior to the 2019 season.

THE Thredbo Valley Track, or TVT as it’s known, is considered by many as the region’s signature mountain bike and multi-use track.

The upper TVT between Thredbo village and Lake Crackenback Resort is enjoyed by thousands of enthusiastic mountain bike riders and walkers every year.

The picturesque valley setting is inspiring in many ways with the track crossing the Thredbo River via five bridges providing uninterrupted views up and down the river and valley.

The immense project however is ongoing, with the purpose to eventually have the track extend in 2019 from Thredbo all the way to Jindabyne. In 2020 it will extend uphill from Thredbo to Dead Horse Gap. The National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) are opening the Lower TVT progressively. At this stage the best part of ten kilometres of winding and often tight single track is accessible for use and is accessed via a footpath across the Skitube (train) bridge which spans the Thredbo River at Bullocks Flat.

The lower TVT offers a greater sense of immersion in nature with towering trees, ground cover shrubberies and

rocky outcrops bordering closely against each side of the track. Stunning views of the river and rapids below are featured at numerous points and draw your gaze from the track ahead.

Partially because of the project’s intended design and partially because of the steeper valley terrain, the lower TVT is somewhat more challenging than its upper valley counterpart. The first three kilometres downstream are often tight but for the most part enjoy a relatively smooth packed base.

Beyond the three-kilometre point is a distinctive rock armoured section and an adjacent warning sign after which the track becomes more technical and challenging in a noticeable but not excessive manner.

Until the track is opened in its entirety the Lower TVT is a “return route on the same track� so always be mindful of the extra oncoming traffic. As well as more challenging, the lower section is also more remote should accidents or bike mechanicals occur. Be sure you’re prepared for the route in both the equipment you take, and the skill set you have.

The completion of the TVT to Jindabyne is expected for autumn 2019 which will be welcomed as one of Australia’s best trails.

Chairlift scenic ride

REACH: Standing on top of nŹ cŎŰõĤƀŰƤķŎ̖ N{§{̏ ŹăƔă !ƀƫ

Kosciuszko country LIFE is all about journeys and one of the Snowy Mountains favourite summer journeys is climbing Mt Kosciuszko. And the beauty of this great journey is that it is relatively easy, and here is how you do it.

Start at Thredbo and take the Kosciuszko Chair to the top then just follow the walking path for 6.5km and you are there.

Along the way paths have kilometre markings so you know how far you have travelled, there are endless scenic vistas at every rise or turn and if you don’t want to venture to the very top you can stop at the lookout about half way.

It is undoubtedly one of the biggest drawcards for summer, and if you have a brisk step you can do it all in half a day return. If you bring the camera and want to capture stunning images along the way ŹĠØŹ ĤŰ ƱŅă̐ ĤŹ ƕĤĺĺ ĴƀŰŹ ŹØķă ƛŎƀ Ø ĺĤŹŹĺă bit longer.

As you near the top you will encounter a fork in the path at Rawson Pass. Here ƛŎƀ ƕĤĺĺ ƱŅû ƀŰŹŬØĺĤØ̵Ű ĠĤęĠăŰŹ ØłăŅĤŹƛ block and often worth considering its

òăŅăƱŹŰ ØŰ ƛŎƀ ØŬă ŰŎłăƕĠØŹ ŬăłŎŹă̖ This intersection also allows you a detour to Seaman’s Hut down the Summit Road. Allow an extra hour return trip back to Rawson Pass including some photo time at the hut.

Everything is well sign posted and the last one kilometre walk to the summit is the best as you literally walk around Mt Kosciuszko with exceptional views in all directions to the Main Range and Victorian high country.

On busy days you may have to wait your turn for the mandatory photo on the cairn at the top of Australia. But we can assure you that photo is a prized possession for a lifetime and of course to show jealous friends.

An option if you prefer a longer route with no chairlift is to drive to Charlotte Pass lookout. Here you can follow the Summit Road for 9km each way where you will pass Seaman’s Hut. On any trip to the alpine region, bring food water and an extra layer as it can often be colder and windy at the top.

SIGHTSEEING from the top of the Kosciuszko chairlift is one of the best summer experiences at Thredbo.

If you have not ridden the chair before it is an exhilarating 15 minute ride that whisks you from the village to the top at Eagles Nest.

During the ride you can watch mountain bikers below and you have breath taking vistas of Thredbo Valley and all the slopes below.

During winter imagine that this entire area is covered in snow and is a blanket of white, so if you are also a winter snow enthusiast you can see your favourite runs in the summer.

There is no need to twist your neck, you will have great views of the village on the return ride.

At the top be sure to walk around and take in all the views, and especially the village 560m below.

You will see bike riders dismount and head downhill, and for hikers this is also the starting point of descending nature walking trails plus the 6.5km walk to Australia’s highest mountain, Mt Kosciuszko.

Be sure to visit the Eagles Nest

Jindabyne passionate about 2036 masterplan ƛ ŹăƔă !ƀƫ When the NSW State Government announced they were funding a $2.4 million dollar Jindabyne Masterplan, it caught everyone by surprise with even key towns people having not heard a whisper. aĤŅûØòƛŅă ĠØŰ òăăŅ ĤûăŅŹĤƱăû ØŰ Ø ŰŹŬŎŅę ęŬŎƕŹĠ town and the Snowy Mountains a key region as part of NSW’s growth and as a tourist destination.

With the three previous councils being in a holding pattern leading into their amalgamation, and the new Snowy Monaro Regional Council ŬăØĺĤŰŹĤõØĺĺƛ ŰŹĤĺĺ ƱŅûĤŅę ĤŹŰ ėăăŹ̐ ĤŹ õŎłăŰ ØŰ ƕăĺõŎłăû ŅăƕŰ ėŎŬ Øĺĺ õŎŅõăŬŅăû ŹŎ ƱŅØĺĺƛ Űăă some action.

Past town planning estimates of Jindabyne’s population and growth have been way below the mark, so the NSW Government has stepped in and will fund a fast tracked masterplan.

Coordinator General Lee Shearer, the straight talking driving force behind the project said the masterplan will be 12 months before it is delivered “as we don’t want to half do it and balls it up.”

“Whilst it is predominately focused on Jindabyne and the reason for that is it’s clear that Jindabyne is growing, whereas most other parts of this particular region are either stagnant, and some are even regressing, Jindabyne is growing,” said Ms Shearer.

“So it’s clear that Jindabyne needs and wants a

plan for the way forward, that’s what a masterplan is. To talk about getting the pieces of the puzzle, understanding where it is that the community wants to go and how it is that we should get there.

“Once the plan is settled, that provides the framework for all of the agencies that have responsibility, including local council in implementing the plan going forward.

“It’s important that we understand council is on this journey as an absolute side by side partner with us.

“Council being an amalgamated council has a lot of business as usual that they need to deal with.

An amalgamated council in my experience are like stapling, generally, two big business together and setting the pace for the future, it takes a lot of work to do that.

“So that has been recognised and I don’t want us, the big state government being seen to be a ŬăƲăõŹĤŎŅ ŎŅ ŹĠăł ŅŎŹ ûŎĤŅę ŹĠĤŰ łØŰŹăŬŨĺØŅ̐ ŹĠØŹ is generally where it would sit.

“This is more about the state government recognising that there are a number of challenges in this area, it’s a huge tourism area, you all know how important this area is to the whole region essentially, and instead of just waiting, the government decided to pull up stumps, give us some money and get the ball rolling.”

As part of their three day community consultation in early December, NSW Planning

'ăŨØŬŹłăŅŹ ŰŹØƫ ĤŅŹăŬØõŹăû ƕĤŹĠ ŹĠă õŎłłƀŅĤŹƛ who forwarded their opinions in droves.

Over 400 people attended the various interactive sessions, and what was clear is that the community sees a few common grounds, but it will take the next 12 months for the planners to identify everything that is essential, or what infrastructure needs to be programmed for future years.

People want more focus on big picture ideas and connectivity for the lake foreshore during summer. Many grand ideas being mentioned were water attractions to cafes. As a tourist town that would be welcomed and very important for future year round visitation.

Everyone agreed parking and lack of public transport was an issue. As for the actual town, residents mentioned the disjointed nature of development in the town, a desire to improve ƲŎƕ ØŅû ŰŹĤŹõĠ ŹŎęăŹĠăŬ ŹĠă §ŎƕŅ !ăŅŹŬă ƕĤŹĠ Nugget’s Crossing.

This is only a snippet of information and the beginning of this process. Over the coming months and year we will be monitoring the developments.

Then we need the NSW State Government and the Snowy Monaro Regional Council to dig deep into their pockets and deliver on the plan.

No mothballs and dust gathering welcomed on plans anymore.

Summer lake exploits SUMMER time on Lake Jindabyne is a hive of activity and after the spring snow melt the lake is looking primed for all your summer water exploits.

The Claypits area at the Barry Way ŬŎƀŅûØòŎƀŹ ĤŰ ƛŎƀŬ ƱŬŰŹ ŰŹŎŨ ØŅû ŎƫăŬŰ easy access.

This is sheltered from any water craft and ideal for a day out so be sure to pack the bucket and spade for a sand castle competition.

Water skiers have a vast area on the left side of the Claypits and it becomes a huge social occasion. With boat access it is easy to venture further away from town for your own private beach. There are numerous beaches to choose from and it allows you to õĠØŰă ƲØŹŹăŬ ƕØŹăŬ̖ Boat owners will welcome the new boat ramp upgrade near the Snowline Centre ØŹ ŹĠă §ĠŬăûòŎ ŹƀŬŅŎƫ ƕĠĤõĠ ĠØŰ òăăŅ

completed in the early summer.

Sailors love that there is near guaranteed afternoon breeze and the local sailing club has Wednesday evening and Saturday afternoon competitions, so even if you do not sail you can watch as the lake comes alive with sails.

If you want to try your hand at sailing, you can hire a catamaran from the lake hire.

Early morning is best for smooth water and ideal for all your other water craft sports such as canoeing, kayaking and stand up paddle boarding.

The beauty of the lake is not just always swimming or recreational use but is also the perfect backdrop for all your other foreshore activities.

The lake foreshore path is perfect for a leisurely walk or bike riding and is a shared path. There are numerous scenic locations to take in the view and it runs from Banjo Paterson Park near the Jindabyne Bowling Club, all the way to the Discovery Park.

Along the way you pass signage indicating where the old town of Jindabyne

For a change of pace try barefoot lawn bowls and still take in views of the lake, and the skate park is next to Banjo Paterson Park where it is a bustling venue on most days.

Man from Snowy River Rodeo celebrates 75 years Ć› Â?ĹšÄƒĆ”Äƒ !ƀƍ JINDABYNE’S Man from Snowy River Rodeo will celebrate its 75th year in December 2018. The rodeo is still the only continuous event that links the old town to the new and since 1943 cowboys have been saddling up, just like they do today.

Nowadays its home is at John Connors Oval, in the centre of town, but it has always been central to town and was traditionally a boxing day event, December 26. •ŏĤŎŏ ŚŎ ĹšÄ Äƒ ŎĺÝ ŚŎƕŅ Ă˛ÄƒÄ¤Ĺ…Ä™ Ć˛ĹŽĹŽĂťÄƒĂť Ă˜Ĺ…Ăť eĂ˜ÄˇÄƒ aÄ¤Ĺ…ĂťĂ˜Ă˛Ć›Ĺ…Äƒ ƹĺĺĤŅęĚ? ĹšÄ Äƒ ĹŹĹŽĂťÄƒĹŽ Ć€Ĺ°ÄƒĂť ŚŎ Ă˛Äƒ held behind where the BP service station stands now, near the Jindabyne Holiday Park. The venue moved in 1967.

Looking back at old photos and comments, it certainly was a big day for the surrounding community. Cars would line the outer perimeter and it was near compulsory attendance for the whole town. Proceeds would go to the Bush Nursing Association.

The rodeo has great individual historic moments, including 1993 where a bull Ĺ‚Ă˜Ĺ…Ă˜Ä™ÄƒĂť ŚŎ ÄƒĹ°ĂľĂ˜Ĺ¨Äƒ ĹšÄ Äƒ ŏĤŅę Ă˜Ĺ…Ăť ŏƀŅ ĹŽĆŤ

into town. He was stalked all the way from Townsend Street around past Horizons to Widows Creek where a small group of cows had to be seconded to help catch the bull.

Milton Golby said he remembers the old days, including the bull chase that he and brother Ron were involved in to retrieve the rogue. Milton has been on the committee since 1967. “Before the new town we used to get fairly big crowds, well I suppose big crowds for Jindabyne in them days because there weren’t many people about there.�

Milton said he only rode steers himself and was a pickup rider for 30 years with brother Ron. When asked did rodeo run in the family with son Cameron and now grandson Callum, he said, “Yeah, Cameron was a pretty good bareback rider, he was Ĺ°ÄƒĆ”ÄƒĹ…ĹšÄ Ä¤Ĺ… ĹšÄ Äƒ Ĺ°ĹŽĆ€ĹšÄ ÄƒĹŹĹ… Ć¤ĹŽĹ…Äƒ ĆąĹ…Ă˜ÄşĹ°Ě–Ě˛ Cameron is now on the committee and you will see his son Callum in the juniors again this year.

Running them in on Christmas day, we got a bit sick of that and sometimes we did not get them, so it was getting a bit risky,� said Milton.

The 75th Jindabyne Man from Snowy River Rodeo will be held on Friday 28th December starting at 11am.

Whatever you do for a crust right across the Snowy Mountains region you are positively affected by tourism.

In fact, last year spending by tourists was worth almost $38,000 for every man, woman and child in our community – more than double anywhere else in New South Wales.

A whopping $787 million dollars a year that has a multiplier effect creating jobs and opportunities for all our families.

Tourism is everybody’s business.

Bucking brute force RODEO life is second nature for the top riders across Australia, and Tumbarumba stars like Ben Hall, Tim Hammond and Brad Pierce are all in the top echelon of competitors.

They understand what life is like both on the rodeo road and on the back of a nasty bronc who has no intentions of letting them off without a fight.

It is encouraging to see then that they spend time with the next batch of potential stars and first timers who want to learn from the best and

improve their rodeo skills.

Thirty one riders attended their recent bareback and saddle bronc riding school, the fourth annual event where they received tuition from Ben Hall, Tim Hammond, Brad Pierce and Fred Osman from Tibooburra.

Ben Hall said, “We teach them a lot of basics on a stationary horse, then a bucking machine, teach them a hell a lot of basics and then we put them on one of the horses to suit them that will buck a little bit but are very slow

and quiet, the sort of thing that are not going to hurt them.”

“The whole idea is to try and encourage them and build the sport further. We’ll hope to see them over Christmas, a lot of them we haven’t seen before, we’re hoping it’s the start of their career.”

There is also encouragement at the actual rodeo events. “A lot of us get there early and support the younger fellas in the second division,” said Hall.

This year at Tumbarumba, the highest scoring second division rider who attended their school will also receive a $250 bonus. Second division overall

winners also receive a belt buckle as a trophy for their efforts.

Hall himself had another great year, just missing out on overall bareback champion.

“I ended up runner up for the Australian title, so a bit disappointed really. It come down to the last round at Warwick as to who would win it and I came off second best.”

When asked about his thoughts on event day and horses, he said a lot is metal preparation and they do know about some of the rides but suggested, “Yeah, don’t try and outsmart them as they are a lot quicker and stronger than us, that’s about all you can do really.”

Tumbafest to impress for 22nd year

Ά MUSIC: Darren Middleton will be a headline act.

TUMBARUMBA throws open its arms each year for quite the February party when Tumbafest hits town.

Celebrating its 22nd year and with over two decades of high quality entertainment, the event not only showcases the best food, wine and market craft stalls, but is a musical weekend with a full line up of great artists.

Each year Tumbafest attracts over 4,000 people for the two-day event who relish the ideal relaxing location in the centre of town. The Creekscape venue offers shade aplenty as well as spanning the gently flowing Tumbarumba Creek.

With a weekend of constant music, Darren Middleton is set to headline the Saturday of the festival. Darren has his latest and third solo album out, Tides, and will be performing his best hits along with some Powderfinger favourites.

Headlining Sunday is UK British Blues Award winner Bex Marshall. With her unique style of guitar playing, Bex pushes the boundaries of blues and her songs have been called timeless. Bex is

literally a musical tornado and will be performing at Tumbafest as a three piece.

The program is complete with a wide variety of local and regional talent which is sure to get the crowd grooving. The highlight of Tumbafest is how close you are to your favourite artists, literally dancing right up to the foot of the stage.

Initially conceived to showcase the regions’ exceptional cool climate wines, Tumbafest boasts a collection of local wineries for tasting and purchase plus a corridor of eatery vans and tents.

Cooking demonstrations by Mark Olive, aka The Black Olive, will tantalise your taste buds with quality local produce, matched with the best of the region’s wines.

With dozens of craft and market stalls to stroll around for special gifts, plus children’s rides and amusements, the weekend is non stop. Each day watch the entertaining duck race on the creek ƕĠăŬă ŅƀłòăŬăû ŨĺØŰŹĤõ ûƀõķŰ ƲŎØŹ ŹŎ ŹĠă ƱŅĤŰĠ ĺĤŅă̖ For more information including full main stage line up and to purchase your tickets visit www.tumbafest.com.au.

The river walk near town is wonderful and you hear birds chirping in the early morning. The water from the river is also fresh, so much so that the boys at the Tumut River Brewing Co recently won a bronze medal at the NSW Tourism Awards.

So that is a good excuse for a cheers and perhaps to also stop in for refreshing brew.

across valleys and vineyards.

Tumbarumba’s new Pump Track will open in December at the Tumbarumba Creekscape park. Suitable for all abilities (and anything on wheels including bikes, scooters and skateboards), it provides a facility to learn and practice the skills required for mountain biking and riding the skate park, as the features are ‘rollable’ for beginners and allow for progression to ‘pumping’ and even jumping as skill level improves.

There are so many great options for cyclists in the Snowy Valleys, from events to just social riding so it’s time to get on your bike and have an adventure.

Property Guide Snowy land seeking expressions of interest SNOWY HYDRO Ltd recently called for Expressions of Interest (EOI) for the potential sale of several land holdings in Jindabyne.

The parcels of land, located at Cobbon Crescent, Old Kosciuszko Road in East Jindabyne, Coppertom Point and Kosciuszko Road near Snowy Mountains Grammar School, are owned by Snowy Hydro and are not required for the operation of the Snowy Scheme in the future.

The EOI will enable Snowy Hydro to assess the level of interest in the land and allow interested parties to put forward ŎƫăŬŰ ŹĠØŹ ƕĤĺĺ ŬăŰƀĺŹ ĤŅ Ņăƕ ŎŨŨŎŬŹƀŅĤŹĤăŰ for the town and region.

Paul Broad, CEO of Snowy Hydro, said the company was constantly reviewing its landholdings and whether they were serving their best purpose.

“We have heard the local view that land shortages are reducing opportunities for some home buyers to enter the market, ØŬă łØķĤŅę ĤŹ ûĤƬõƀĺŹ ėŎŬ ŹŎƀŬĤŰł operators and for the local Council to identify suitable community land,” Mr Broad said.

“If there is evidence that by releasing some parcels of land it could help address local issues - and any proposals are supported by Council - then that

would be a great outcome.”

“An EOI process for the four current lots ensures a potential Snowy Hydro land release is open and competitive and that Øĺĺ ŎƫăŬŰ õŎƀĺû òă õØŬăėƀĺĺƛ õŎŅŰĤûăŬăû̖ RŹ gives us the ability to see if there are any ŰĤęŅĤƱõØŅŹ ĤŰŰƀăŰ ŹĠØŹ ƕă ØŬă ŅŎŹ ØƕØŬă Ŏė and assess the way forward.”

Members of the public responded with concerns some of these land parcels are located around the Jindabyne and East Jindabyne lake foreshore shared trail areas.

Snowy Monaro Regional Council said they assure the community that arrangements are in place to ensure public access in this area will not be ØƫăõŹăû òƛ ŹĠă 1{R ŨŬŎõăŰŰ ØŅû ŨŎŹăŅŹĤØĺ land release, or any development in the future.

“Council continues to work closely with Snowy Hydro on our Lake Jindabyne shared trail network as options for future trail extensions are explored,” said Mayor, John Rooney.

The EOI process will be coordinated by local agent Michael Henley and commenced in mid-November. It will run until the end of January 2019.

For enquiries about the land parcels or EOI process please contact Michael Henley on 0403 165 563.

LIFESTYLE change could well be the new sea change as people consider moving away from the stresses of city life and look for business opportunities.

Snowy River Holiday Park in Dalgety ticks all those boxes and the business is up for sale.

Current owners Sue and Colin Fabish have the property in great condition and during their time have made considerable improvements.

They have continually upgraded the gardens and take great pride in presenting the property immaculately to their annual guests and passing travellers.

With a totally renovated amenities block and new camp kitchen, guests to the park have all the facilities they require whether they are renting the cabins, powered or

unpowered caravan sites or camping.

Winter time sees good patronage with snow visitors, with many caravans on site for the duration of the season.

During summer the location of being a stone throw from the Snowy River allows guests the options of swimming, water activities or walking along the river banks for platypus spotting.

New owners would walk straight into an established business that has successive trip advisor awards for excellence and has a three bedroom house for their own residence.

With proximity to all the beauty of Australia’s alpine region including Mt Kosciuszko, prospective buyers should contact the owners for a direct sale. See advertisement below.
