Timing key for project T

BY DEAN LAWSON

he go-ahead for a new multi-milliondollar housing development in Horsham North will hinge on how quickly a developer can obtain a council permit.

Elmstone Property Group director Stuart Benjamin of Ballarat wants to build 35 seven-star one-bedroom self-contained apartments on the northern end of Alexander Avenue. But he stressed the timing of permit approval and subsequent signing of client contracts were critical to whether he pushed ahead with or abandoned the project. He said first-home builders being able to tap into federal and state government incentives was integral to project success. A $25,000 Federal Government HomeBuilder incentive program expires at the end of December. State Government $20,000 First Home Owner Grants are open until June next year. “We need to have contracts before the end of December and we can’t sign any contracts until we have a permit,” Mr Benjamin said. “The houses, drawn up by award-winning Porter architects, are particularly designed for first-home buyers or empty nesters looking to downsize. And the ability to do this for an average price of about $200,000 is unprecedented in the region. “We’ve already been contacted by buyers who have said this will see them staying in Horsham instead of relocating towards Melbourne and allow them to get into the property market. “At the moment prospective purchasers have an opportunity to tap into a $25,000 incentive from the Federal Government and a $20,000 first-home offer from the State Government. When you take off $45,000 it means most people are buying a house for much less than the rent they would be paying.”

Investment

Mr Benjamin, who has developed more than 2000 housing projects and been building across regional Australia for more than 20 years, is personally investing $5-million into the Horsham project. In the past 12 years he has gleaned an acute understanding of the Wimmera through business activities and his role in Regional Devel-

opment Australia. He has been a powerful and outspoken advocate for socio-economic growth progressing west of Ballarat and played key roles in renewable-energy, infrastructure and highway development projects. Mr Benjamin said Horsham Rural City Council had been receptive to the project and he hoped for a green light at the newly formed council’s first general meeting on November 30. “The council has been supportive and together we have gone through an extensive process to ensure the development complies with both state and local planning policies,” he said. “It has already been approved by the Country Fire Authority, GWMWater and Powercor.” Mr Benjamin was in Horsham this week as part of community consultation and noted that some property owners near the development site had questioned the demand for onebedroom housing in Horsham, preferring to see four-bedroom homes on quarter acre blocks. He stressed that extensive research showed there was significant demand for ‘smaller’ housing opportunities. “We don’t spend millions of dollars without doing our homework,” he said. “The Horsham council and Wimmera Development Association have both identified that one-bedroom housing is a major shortcoming in the market. Horsham has also been identified as being able to take advantage of government housing grants and considered a potential growth area for more modern styles of living.” Mr Benjamin said areas of Horsham North also represented relatively untapped potential. “When you look at a map of Horsham it really stands out as an obvious opportunity. It is well located with good services with excellent access to transport routes. It stacks up,” he said. “We’re seeing a rental crisis in Horsham pushing young people out of town and this type of affordable development allows them to buy a house and establish roots in the community. “With interest rates at an all-time low it presents itself as a win for everyone.” Mr Benjamin said he was committed to using a Wimmera workforce on the almost 5000square-metre housing site where possible, with construction scheduled to start in 2021.

Big battery part of power jigsaw W

BY DEAN LAWSON

immera development leaders expect to know in the next few weeks what a giant western Victorian lithium battery will mean for the region’s renewableenergy-generating future.

Wimmera Development Association executive director Chris Sounness said he suspected the 300-megawatt battery, planned for Moorabool Terminal Station near Geelong, simply represented another piece in an infrastructure puzzle. “We’ll be attending an information

session in the next couple of weeks to assess what it means for energy generation in the Wimmera and southern Mallee,” he said. “Anything that increases electrical-grid stability will help us recognise the potential of what we have here or could potentially have. “It represents another piece in the jigsaw, which will be great for Victoria and hopefully allow the industry to expand in the region.” Victorian Energy Minister Lily D’Ambrosio has directed the Australian Energy Market Operator, AEMO, to sign a contract with renewable-en-

ergy specialist Neoen to build a new Tesla battery to transform Victoria’s energy system and improve reliability. The Victorian Big Battery will be designed to help reduce wholesale and household electricity prices by storing renewable energy when the weather makes it plentiful and discharging it into the grid when it is needed most. Neoen, which operates a wind farm at Bulgana near Great Western, will pay for construction of the battery, scheduled to be ready by the 2021-22 summer, as well as its ongoing operation and maintenance.

Renewable-energy companies have identified parts of the Wimmera, southern Mallee and Western District as environmentally ideal for generating wind and solar power. They have been exploring project options in the region, with limited capacity in ageing electrical-grid infrastructure in much of western Victoria a major stumbling block. Initial work is underway to address grid shortcomings and the power-generating industry is also looking at storage options based on batteries and hydrogen production. The Wimmera is likely to be a key

part of the broad western Victorian renewable-energy picture. Mr Sounness said industrial activity ‘in the renewable industry space’ in the Wimmera and southern Mallee was continuing to evolve. “We’re seeing investors looking at the rolling out of batteries and hydrogen production as viable business opportunities in our part of the world,” he said. Victoria’s State Opposition believes the government should build the new battery at Mortlake, between Ararat and Warrnambool, instead of near Geelong to avoid wasting power.

Restrictions easing

Communities encouraged to pause Residents across the Wimmera plan to pay tribute to fallen servicemen and women for Remembrance Day today despite challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic. At the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month each year, Australians are encouraged to pause to contemplate the sacrifice of all who have died in service of the nation. Nhill residents Rosie Clark and Pam Deckert, with the help of volunteers, have set up a major outdoor display of poppies for Remembrance Day. This is the second year volunteers have decorated Nhill’s Goldsworthy Park with about 20,000 crocheted and knitted red poppies covering the park’s palm trees near the war memorial. The creations are the result of the work

and donations of thousands of volunteers across Australia. “The poppies will now be on display year after year for Anzac Day and Remembrance Day,” Mrs Deckert said. “Remembrance Day is a very emotional time of year in Nhill – we must remember the fallen who have served our country from the airforce, navy and army. “If it wasn’t for them, we might not have had a country.” RSL members across the region plan to lay wreaths at their town’s war memorial to pay respect to the fallen. Horsham and District War Memorial and Cenotaph, where a service would normally take place in the rural city, will be without crowds today. However, RSL sub-branch members welcome individuals and organisations to

lay wreaths and pay respects. Volunteers continued with fundraising efforts for an annual Poppy Appeal in the build-up to Remembrance Day. Poppy Appeal officer Sally Bartram said volunteers took to the streets to sell poppies, badges and other items to raise much-needed money for veterans. “It’s so important. We have so many servicemen and women coming back and people have no idea what they go through when they’re overseas,” she said. The Australian War Memorial in Canberra will commemorate Remembrance Day with a nationally televised ceremony. The event will start at 10.45am. The stream can be found online at www.face book.com/shrineofremembrance – Dylan De Jong

People can travel freely between regional Victoria and metropolitan Melbourne without permits under the latest easing of COVID-19 restrictions. Horsham and Ararat cinemas have also joined counterparts across the state in a return to screening movies, with the same rules now applying for Melbourne and the regions. Seating limitations mean booking is essential. While gradually easing, social-gathering and some indoor adult community sporting restrictions continue to apply. Face-mask rules also remain in place. The changes reflect COVID-19 figures that to late yesterday showed Victoria had no new infections or deaths for almost two weeks. People seeking clarification of latest COVID-19 guidelines can visit website dhhs.vic.gov.au. The State Government, meanwhile, has announced it will provide free kindergarten services and support for more outside-schoolhours care next year as part of its COVID-19 response. The government will provide up to $169.6-million as part of the Victorian Budget 2020-21 in a move to save parents thousands of dollars and help more women back into work. The government predicts the move will save families about $2000 for every child enrolled in a participating funded kindergarten program. Under this investment, the government will offer subsidies to early childhood services providing funded kindergarten programs – meaning free kinder for four-year-olds and eligible three-year-olds attending a participating sessional kindergarten. Families with children enrolled in kinder programs at a long-day care centre will also benefit from a saving of about $2000 in fees. Families that have children attending unfunded three-year-old programs in sessional kindergartens will also have reduced fees.

Change of direction for nursery B

BY DEAN LAWSON

arengi Gadjin Land Council has launched new Dalki Garringa branding for historic Wail Nursery between Horsham and Dimboola.

Dalki Garringa will take the nursery, which provided plants for major revegetation projects in 1946, in a new direction. Dalki Garringa means ‘good growing’ and since taking over the operation of the nursery, the land council has worked on a new plan for nursery operation. In keeping with aspirations of Traditional Owners, the nursery is focusing on native plants, including food species. Nursery redevelopment will also help the land council protect cultural intellectual property and stories attached to each species. Land council acting chief executive

Tim McCartney said the new branding marked the beginning of a new era at the nursery and the growing of plants important to Traditional Owners and the region. “And while we respect the history of the nursery, what we want to develop at Wail is a modern approach to some of our traditions along with a new economic development opportunity for our people,” he said. The Dalki Garringa launch is the first of several new economic development projects Barengi Gadjin Land Council is pursuing. A new economic development strategy provides a direction for developing several opportunities in the region, including new tourism products, the native nursery, bush food and hospitality opportunities. PricewaterhouseCoopers Indigenous Consulting Report, which has indicated there is a social economic return

of $4.41 for every dollar invested, is supporting the development. While Dalki Garringa Nursery is not yet open to the public, the nursery will have a website and plans to be active on social media through Facebook and Instagram. Plans include initially providing people with opportunities to buy some special bushfood plant packages online.

Important role

The nursery is also working on providing plants for larger-scale planting projects for organisations including Mallee Catchment Management Authority, Dja Dja Warrung, Hindmarsh Landcare Network and Greening Australia. Mr McCartney said while there would be a strong focus on growing species endemic to the region, the nursery would also look to the future to grow species suitable for a chang-

ing climate and for bushfire-revegetation projects across the state. He said as a consequence there would be a significant focus on plants that provided value for environmental management and improving biodiversity. “We believe the nursery, which has historically played an important role in providing plants for revegetation projects in the region as well as being a retail outlet for home gardeners, will have an important role in providing plants for innovative bushfood and produce plantings as an emerging new horticultural enterprise in the region,” he said. “Launching in NAIDOC Week is recognition of an important milestone in the redevelopment of the nursery.” The nursery development has attracted State Government funding through a $2-million Djakitjuk Djanga program, steering financial backing to

Victorian Aboriginal businesses working to develop the industry. It is one of 13 projects to gain funding support. Djakitjuk Djanga translates to ‘country’s food’ in Dja Dja Wurrung language. The Djakitjuk Djanga grants are helping Aboriginal Victorian-owned businesses expand operations and trial commercial production of native plants for food and botanicals. Agriculture Minister Jaclyn Symes said the program contributed to the development of an authentic Victorian native foods and botanicals industry. “It celebrates the rich variety of native plants that add a unique Australian touch to products,” she said. “We’re so proud to partner with the Federation of Victorian Traditional Owner Corporations to deliver the grants program and support the growth of this industry.”

Embracing cultural unity The raising of the Aboriginal flag in Horsham earlier this week signified the community joining in nationwide week-long celebrations for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, cultures, achievements and history. First Nations people’s identity as the oldest culture on earth is the focus of this year’s NAIDOC Week, themed ‘Always was, Always will be’. Goolum-Goolum Aboriginal Co-operative collaborated with Horsham Regional Art Gallery to celebrate NAIDOC Week, with an annual indigenous art exhibition featuring in a vacant store on the corner of Firebrace Street and Roberts Avenue. The exhibition finishes on Friday. NAIDOC Week festivities across Australia are occurring months after they would usually be celebrated in July. But the global COVID-19 pandemic did not change the significance of the week. Goolum Goolum community engagement worker Deanne King, who helped organise the art exhibition, said the week was an opportunity for all Australians to embrace, learn and celebrate indigenous culture. “It’s a celebration for First Nations people as well as sharing a message with the wider community for them to learn about our culture and our history,” she said. The first annual Horsham art exhibition was during NAIDOC Week in July 2019. The exhibition attracted hundreds of visitors to witness and celebrate artwork from regional artists. Ms King said although COVID-19 restrictions would prevent traditional dancing and large

gatherings of people, it was crucial First Nations people could push forward with the art exhibition to celebrate the week. “I think a lot of people would have been disappointed if NAIDOC Week was cancelled,” she said. “We’re very proud Aboriginal people, so to be able to embrace us and our culture is something that is really important to us. “We as a mob like to get together, to get out and see each other, that is how you learn from one another and stories from our elders get told.” Ms King said the art exhibition presented a unique opportunity for indigenous artists to have their work on display. “The art exhibition has been really great, especially for individual community members to be able to put their art on display,” she said. “Art to a lot of people is very personal to them, it’s their story and their journey – so to get it out there is really important.” – Dylan De Jong

A need for balance

here are no ifs or buts. A workable collaboration that leaves all groups with some form of victory must ultimately prevail amid issues surrounding Mt Arapiles at Natimuk. If an assessment of discovery of a major historical quarry dating back tens of thousands of years at the mountain park proves to be true, it must lead to the benefit of all involved – past and present. Everyone! In fact, the development represents a value-adding socio-economic and cultural opportunity that would border on being criminal if all involved get the formula wrong. There seems little doubt Mt Arapiles is home to historically and culturally significant sites. There is also little doubt the rock is an international rock-climbing magnet providing lifeblood to a community. As Australians we have a duty to fiercely protect sites that reflect significant cultural history and connections. But this is a broad brush and society works hard these days to establish a belief that no culture is more im-

portant than another. It would be as wrong to discount a unique and vibrant rock-climbing culture that has evolved in Natimuk district during the past 60 years – as it would be to disregard the significance of a culture stemming from thousands of years ago. Critically, both are alive and vibrant today and their preservation important, albeit for different core reasons. Make no mistake – take meaningful rock-climbing out of Natimuk and you rip the heart out of one of the most culturally and artistically diverse regional towns in Australia. Ignore the significance of ancient sites that provide invaluable practical and spiritual insight and connections into our origins and you deny a nation of part of its soul.

We must avoid a ‘rob Peter to pay Paul’ outcome and work hard to always engage a ‘we’ instead of an ‘us and them’ approach. We’ll say again and again – people are people! This issue cannot be about philosophical positioning, righting wrongs, making claims or taking defiant stands with blanket bans and-or angry protests – from anyone involved. It’s about all parties having a willingness to be open to benevolent collaboration and identifying the best ways forward. Underpinning it all, from the start, will be an acknowledgment of a need for general respect. Peer-assessed legitimacy, whether it be based on archaeological or socio-economic, cultural and even tourism-market research is also a must. Get everything out of kilter and we risk feeding illogical racial division between people that, in modern times at least, has been a notable absentee from one of the great natural attractions of the region. It is NAIDOC Week, which is a timely reminder of a need for magnanimity.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Possibilities v actual

SIR, – In The Weekly Advertiser article about ‘potential tourism opportunities’ at Djurite-Mt Arapiles, November 4, it makes me wonder about a few things. Tim McCartney talks about all the opportunities, but not about how to take advantage of those opportunities. He also says Barengi Gadjin Land Council is ‘invested’ in sharing the economic benefits with Natimuk. How exactly? Financially? Is the BGLC going to employ local residents in some capacity? When is the BGLC going to start talking to the town of Natimuk? We had a town meeting last year, which the BGLC decided not to attend. I’m also curious as to how you turn possibilities into actual tourists coming to the area, because it’s a 4.5-hour drive from Melbourne to Horsham, and a 5.5-hour drive from Adelaide. Quoting research done in WA seems a bit distant to the situation here. What are people going to see or do when they get to Djurite-Mt Arapiles? Are there stone tools? Will the scar tree that fell over be lifted off the ground? It’s huge, arguably more significant than quarry sites and at immediate risk of degradation due to environmental factors. Will there be investment in a cultural centre and who will pay for that? How culturally significant are quarries? Will people, outside of students of Aboriginal culture and geologists, drive several hours to look at some vague marks in the rocks? And with comments on the resiliency of the Natimuk community, have Mr McCartney or Mr Harradine been out here and talked to the local community? The climbers are talking about selling up and leaving now. Has anyone thought about how many professionals and tradies have moved to Horsham because of climbing at Mt Arapiles? Parks Victoria has destroyed the relationship with climbers across the Grampians, and that has damaged tourism significantly in the area. How will driving climbers out of DjuriteNatimuk-Horsham be any different? Lemuel Saunders Natimuk

No voice for climbers

SIR, – In response to your article ‘Tourism Potential’, could I point out that Natimuk’s social and economic future is heavily dependent on the 87,000 day users who visit the park, more than 90 percent of which come for rock climbing. If climbers and Barengi Gadjin Land Council can’t find a way to share Arapiles State Park the consequences for our highly successful little town and the Wimmera will be disastrous. Climbers and long-standing residents have produced a ‘community that continuously showed a lot of adaptability’ as Wimmera Development Association’s Mr Sounness states. What Mr Sounness fails to appreciate is if further climbing bans are imposed many permanent residents in town will move to another area where they can pursue their love of nature and climbing. The area will lose many teachers, nurses, doctors and other professionals who call Natimuk home. The positive community Mr Sounness refers to will be broken. Let’s not forget that climbers living in Natimuk have already lost access to well over 200 different climbing venues in the Grampians and are now watching this happen at Arapiles. Climbers have been given no voice in this process by Parks Victoria who are facilitating these bans. More than 175 of these venues in the Grampians contain no heritage values but climbers are still locked out. All that climbers have left is Arapiles. Development of tourism based around cultural heritage would certainly benefit Natimuk’s economy, but these opportunities are still just concepts and many years away from being realised. What will prop up the economy in the meantime when the climbers leave? Natimuk is facing a crisis today that could economically and socially destroy the town. Protecting cultural heritage while still being able to engage in recreational activities in our public spaces is crucial to the health and wellbeing of all Victorians. Peter Slarke Natimuk

Rotary plans pop-up market Horsham East Rotary Club leaders have encouraged the community to get a head start on Christmas shopping at a pop-up community market on November 22. The club has joined forces with Horsham Plaza to present a market in the shopping centre’s west car park. Rotarian Chris O’Connor said preparations were progressing well, with more than 70 stallholders signed up for the event, from 10am to 1pm. He said there was still space available for individuals or groups looking to sell their wares. “The stalls will be in every second car park, and there are hundreds of car parks, so we can still accommodate plenty more stalls,” he said. Mr O’Connor said the Rotary club decided to create a pop-up market following news Horsham-based Makers’ Gallery and Studio would not host a Christmas market in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. “People want to get out and do things and we want to help provide something for them to do,” he said. “Plenty of people have been busy crafting and making things to sell. “We want to keep positive – we will get through this. But we have to get the economy going again. And of course, we need to keep people safe.” Mr O’Connor said plaza centre manager Allison Roberts had done a wonderful job ensuring the market adhered to the government’s COVID-19 regulations. “We will be complying with all COVID regulations,” he said. “People will need to register using a QR code on their smartphones or manually with pen and paper. There will be one way in and another way out. “We will take up the whole back of the car park, so people will only be able to

The rest of it will be fenced off. “People can still go in and out of the plaza, but if they want to come to the market they need to provide contact details.” People can call Horsham Plaza centre management on 5382 0912 or email manager@horshamplaza.com.au to book a market site. Sites cost $15, with profits going to the Rotary club.

Mr O’Connor said fundraising had been difficult throughout the pandemic. “We haven’t been able to have our annual car raffle, which usually gets drawn before Christmas, and other fundraisers such as the field days and country music festival have been cancelled,” he said. “We are still working towards our art show in April, which hopefully we can still have in some shape or form.” – Sarah Matthews

Mount tourism idea questioned

ifetime Natimuk resident, rock-climber and climbing authority Keith Lockwood has questioned the commercial viability of Mt Arapiles becoming a major indigenous cultural tourism attraction.

Mr Lockwood, with extensive international rock-climbing connections and a former journalist, said investing in commercial tourism operations at Arapiles-Tooan State Park would be ‘a brave move’. “It might work, given enough investment, advertising, expertise and significant culture to see, but the fact is that most tourists would probably head to Kakadu or Uluru for their cultural experience,” he said. “The business case – the law of supply and demand – has to stack up.” Mr Lockwood was responding to Wimmera First Nations leaders’ idea to explore tourism opportunities at the mount in the wake of discoveries of sites of possible national significance. Barengi Gadjin Land Council leaders believe discoveries of art and stone-tool quarrying sites in Mt Arapiles-Tooan State Park and nearby Black Range State Park present a unique opportunity to expand tourism in the region. The concept has attracted support from regional development leaders confident of a compromise between stakeholders as they work through complex issues surrounding community access and site protection. “All I have heard so far are warm fuzzy phrases such as an ‘immersive experience’ and ‘nationally significant cultural rediscoveries’,” Mr Lockwood said. He said there would need to be ‘some pretty significant’ sites at Arapiles to draw tourists away from the Great Barrier Reef, Sydney Opera House and fairy penguins at Phillip Island. “Instead, we have some invisible art sites, some broken rock, a rotting scar tree and a bushy slope

covered in signs and plastic bunting below Tiger Wall,” he said. “We need to know the veracity and cultural significance of what is at Mt Arapiles before there is any talk of making money out of it.” Mr Lockwood said he had the utmost respect for Aborigines and their culture, having grown up with his uncle Douglas Lockwood’s books, having lived and worked with Aboriginal stockmen in western Queensland, and having worked closely with Goolum Goolum cultural officer Alan Burns. “Alan and I spent a lot of time on field trips at Arapiles,” he said. “We investigated known and new sites, and Alan advised and encouraged me on the Aboriginal chapter in my book Arapiles a Million Mountains.” Mr Lockwood said in more recent times Wotjobaluk elder Ron Marks and archaeologist Ben Gunn had sought his knowledge to identify cultural sites at Arapiles. He said any bid to commercialise Arapiles’ Aboriginal culture would require significant attractions to draw sufficient numbers of people to make it viable. He added these attractions had yet to be specified and all previous tourism development plans for Mt Arapiles had collapsed at the first hurdle for the same reasons. Mr Lockwood said bans on climbing in the region were already undermining a hugely important culture and passion and undermining the existing local economy. He said climbers from around the world visited Arapiles ‘in their tens of thousands’. He said climbing both in the Grampians and at Mt Arapiles had been severely curtailed, with no compromise and no compensation, and more surveys and more shutdowns were forecast. “The mountains do not belong to anyone. They exist for everyone to enjoy,” he said.

Change inevitable in sporting scene F

BY DEAN LAWSON

ootball and netball seasons next year are set to provide critical data on how administrators and officials map out a future for the respective sports and clubs involved across the region.

In fact, how season 2021 unfolds could well usher in a new chapter of mainstream Wimmera-Mallee sport. AFL Wimmera-Mallee area manager Jason Muldoon warned that change was inevitable in the football, netball and general sporting landscape as people came to grips with ‘COVID normal’. He said much would depend on how people responded to the experience of a winter without weekend sport

that had long been a part of routine and tradition. He said this in turn was likely to influence how clubs and competition structures would evolve. “We can’t expect football and netball to go back to what we have known in the past. It will be different,” he said. “We are going to think outside the square and be flexible in how we provide footy and netball in the region.” Mr Muldoon added that while change was inescapable, clubs, players and supporters as well as officials needed fresh data on which to make decisions and this would come from a 2021 season. “There is little doubt that we are going to have a participation drop-off – every league has acknowledged this – we just don’t know how big that’s

going to be. It would be naive to think otherwise,” he said. “But to make any profound decisions based on this before we understand the new landscape would be foolish.” Mr Muldoon said regional officials were planning for ‘normal’ football and netball competitions next year. He said a major difference was they were planning to expect the unexpected. “Nothing is certain and we must be agile in everything we do. For example, at the moment we’re working on 18-round draws – but we might only get 12 rounds or whatever else depending on circumstances that prevail,” he said. Mr Muldoon encouraged leaders

who felt they could not see a plan forward for their clubs for the next five years to start discussing their options. “While we don’t want to force people into any scenarios, clubs need to be realistic about their futures – to consider how football and netball might look in the new normal,” he said. Officials from clubs across the region have formally and informally discussed ways of maintaining important sporting integrity and community connections after the fallout of the pandemic. Nhill and District Sporting Club is among groups seeking input and direction from its members. Club president Ash Dickinson said the Tigers, similar to all clubs across

the Wimmera, had been contemplating what direction they should plan for or take. “Footy and netball are integral to our community and it would be silly to avoid considering what options might be available for us in moving forward,” he said. Mr Dickinson confirmed the club was determined to engage members in discussions. “The biggest unknown at the moment is whether we will even have contact sport at all next year. If we don’t, what happens then?” he said. Mr Muldoon said AFL Wimmera-Mallee was available to help clubs broach major planning ideas. “We’re more than happy to help if needed,” he said.

More sun protection for students More Donald students will have protection from UV rays with the State Government providing money for more sunshades at schools. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford announced Donald Primary School would share in more than $1.3-million from the latest

round of the School Shade Grants Program. The grants are available to schools to build new shade structures, repair existing structures or create natural shade by planting trees and buying sun protective items. Donald Primary School will get $11,880.

CHRISTMAS CHEER: Donald Chamber of Commerce and Industry secretary Stacey Morris, left, and Dee Buston are excited about a 12 Weeks of Christmas promotion.

12 weeks of giving at Donald A small Mallee town is uniting in the spirit of Christmas in a 12-week campaign to support the community and businesses during a tough year. Donald Chamber of Commerce and Industry launched its 12 Weeks of Christmas promotion to help stimulate the town’s economy. Residents can enter into the draw to win two $100 vouchers after spending more than $20 in a participating business. Chamber secretary Stacey Morris said the annual campaign had almost doubled in support from businesses compared with last year. She said a record 85 businesses were taking part in the Christmas campaign. “We generally have about 40 to 50 businesses involved in the promotion,” she said. “We decided to start it earlier this year to stimulate shopping in Donald.” Weekly winners will be announced in a draw every Friday at 1.30pm, with a final draw on Christmas Eve to be live-streamed to Donald Chamber of Commerce’s Facebook page. Late night shopping events are also on the

agenda on selected Fridays, when customers can win double the entries into the draw. Mrs Morris said part of the campaign was to support businesses that had suffered economic hardship during the COVID-19 pandemic. “With the year we had, things needed to be done differently,” she said. “Your businesses are the heart of your community. It’s really important everyone who lives in the township continues to support local communities.” Mrs Morris said she hoped the campaign would help the Donald community build excitement for Christmas. “Christmas is always a joyful time of the year,” she said. “It’s a really good family day. You just want people to feel happy and loved at Christmas. “There’s been nothing to look forward to all this year, but by the sounds of it, borders will be reopening and people will be able to spend time with their family at Christmas.” The chamber of commerce will announce mystery prizes closer to Christmas.

Art hotels in Yarri planning A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Yarriambiack municipal leader is confident a series of art projects will make the shire a ‘standout’ competitor as an attractive tourist destination when COVID-19 restrictions ease.

Council chief executive Jessie Holmes is eager to see the socio-economic benefits from two art projects in Yarriambiack that will transform heritage-listed buildings into ‘art hotels’. Co-ordinators of a collaborative project between the council, Monash University and Working Heritage, hope a plan to re-purpose Warracknabeal’s courthouse into an art hotel will be completed by April 2021. At the same time the council will select a builder for a redevelopment project of a former powerhouse located at Hopetoun. The Hopetoun Powerhouse project will divide the existing space into two sections, including an art studio and accommodation space. Mrs Holmes said the art hotels would be added to a ‘long list’ of attractions that would make Yarriambiack a strong competitor in the Victorian tourism market. She said Yarriambiack Shire was home to six instalments of the iconic Silo Art Trail as well as a mini silo art project in Woomelang and several murals spread across the municipality. “We hope that it becomes an attraction that can complement the many other art projects across our shire and further embed the art theme for our remote and rural locations,” she said. “We’ve seen the success of the Silo

GROWTH: Yarriambiack Shire Council chief executive Jessie Holmes is confident many art installations will help set her municipality apart as a competitive tourist destination. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Art Trail and the community has been part of that success as well, so now it’s about continuing to activate spaces.” Mrs Holmes said repurposing historical buildings such as the courthouse was an effective way to ensure the buildings would continue to serve a purpose. “It’s about recognising those historical buildings in our community also have the ability to be reused or repurposed in a way that still benefits the community, while also attracting tourism,” she said. “In the process those buildings will remain well-loved and looked after.” Mrs Holmes said she expected an influx of visitors to the shire, with easing of COVID-19 restrictions for Melbourne residents on Monday. “We expect with the domestic travel

market reopen, there will be a lot of people keen to get out and looking for opportunities to enjoy the summer,” she said. “With the Silo Art Trail, as well as our lakes and many other attractions, I believe that makes us a pretty attractive and competitive location for people who want to do intrastate-domestic travel.” Working Heritage executive officer Ross Turnball said project co-ordinators were looking to Warracknabeal’s largest festival, Y-fest at Easter 2021, as a date to open the courthouse project. “As far as the works go, we’re getting close to being finished,” he said. “The next phase will be the Monash team doing interior fitout work to the building.

“Then we will be launching an expression of interest for our first sponsored artist to take up a test residency in the facility.” Mr Turnball said the Warracknabeal project would build on the Wimmera’s arts and culture identity. “In order to attract the attention of people from Melbourne, this will provide something a little different and will be a way to rise above the pack in terms of tourism,” he said. “The Wimmera is a really vibrant place in terms of art, when you think of the Silo Art Trail, the town of Natimuk and Horsham Regional Art Gallery. “When you get all these little things building up together, it turns into a great big thing and develops a life of its own.”

Christmas market plus After a successful return to proceedings, Natimuk Farmers Market Plus organisers will host a Christmas edition of the market on December 13. The November market, the first in months thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, was well attended by visitors and stallholders. Natimuk Agricultural and Pastoral Society secretary Judith Bysouth said Horsham Rural City Council had given the organisation the go ahead to host a Christmas market, along with a market on January 24. The January 24 market is in place of the June 2020 market, which was postponed because of the pandemic. Mrs Bysouth said the council had asked the society to move its November 1 market to Natimuk Showground for the first time, because of safety concerns due to the market running adjacent to a highway. “Overwhelming feedback from Sunday’s market include, ‘love the venue’, ‘great organisation’ and ‘lovely clean toilets and good signage’,” she said. “On the negative side, ‘a lack of seating and shade’. We apologise for this, but due to COVID we were required to keep the crowd moving.” Mrs Bysouth said she hoped government restrictions would be lifted to allow for extra seating and additional shade structure at the Christmas market. “We would sincerely like to thank Horsham Rural City Council for its support, our 30-plus volunteers and the fabulous stallholders and everyone who supported the Natimuk Farmers Market Plus on November 1,” she said. The Christmas market will run from 10am to 1.30pm at the showground.

Fire warning area extends Parts of Yarriambiack and Hindmarsh municipalities will enter the 2020-21 Fire Danger Period at 1am on Monday. Country Fire Authority leaders announced restrictions would apply to central Yarriambiack and the northern part of Hindmarsh shire. Northern Yarriambiack entered the Fire Danger Period on October 19. Further Fire Danger Periods will be introduced in other local government areas across Victoria according to conditions throughout the next three months. Authority District 17 assistant chief fire officer Eddie Lacko said from November to December, Victorians could expect above-average rainfall due to the influence of La Niña, particularly across the northern parts and mountain regions. He said considering the outlook and current conditions, the fire season had the potential to be grassfire-dominated, with shorter-duration fires in grass and dry forests during hotter and windier days. CFA leaders are reminding Victorians to not be complacent, since an ‘average’ fire season could still be a bad one. Fire Danger Period information and restrictions are available online at cfa.vic.gov.au/ warnings-restrictions/restrictions-duringthe-fire-danger-period. Victorians can find out ‘Can I or Can’t I?’ information at cfa.vic.gov.au/warnings-restrictions/ can or by calling VicEmergency Hotline on 1800 226 226. All burn-offs should be registered with the VicFire Burn-off notification line on 1800 668 511. • For more about fire preparation, see our Are You Fire Ready? feature, pages 33-38.

Aerial survey Victoria’s Game Management Authority is using aerial surveys to monitor the abundance of gameduck populations across Victoria. The authority has launched the helicopter-based surveys in efforts to help ensure duck hunting remains sustainable. The aerial surveys are part of a trial to test the effectiveness of a new monitoring program design to count duck numbers on Victorian water bodies and beyond. The authority will evaluate the trial survey to assess if any improvements are required to ensure counts are accurate. It will use future survey information to inform adaptive harvest management to set sustainable duck-season arrangements. Experienced wildlife biologists will record the presence and number of game ducks on wetlands, sewerage ponds and farm dams during the surveys. The surveys have started and will continue until Sunday and include much of the state where ducks live, including the Wimmera. A map of the flight paths is available online at bit.ly/3kVDuXp. A flight schedule might change from day to day, depending on weather conditions or other factors.

Shining a light on family violence A

“The behaviours you walk past are the behaviours we accept. Reach out to people who you might think are victims – listen to those around you. The signs are obvious. Speak out”

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Wimmera committee dedicated to ending domestic violence will push on with an annual campaign during the COVID-19 pandemic to raise awareness of its cause.

Wimmera Committee Against Family Violence launched its ‘Shine the Light’ campaign – an online event to highlight a pressing need in the community to support those experiencing family violence. This replaces an annual march, which traditionally sees hundreds of residents take to Horsham streets to help raise awareness of the issue. This year’s campaign will conclude on social media with a video of residents backing the campaign. Committee vice-chair Shane Podolski, who was eager to push forward with plans despite the pandemic, started the concept. Mr Podolski said the artwork he used for the campaign, which featured white silhouettes of a woman and her child against a dark backdrop, aimed to encourage people to speak out against family violence. “The concept is that victims of domestic violence and children live in the darkness and the only way we can help them is by shining a light and showing them there’s a way out,” he said. “I walked into the Horsham Town Hall where I work while we were in lockdown. It was dark and I thought ‘I wish I could just turn the lights on’. “Then it came to me straight away – it’s the same with domestic violence, it’s just darkness.

SPEAK OUT: Wimmera Committee Against Family Violence vice-chair Shane Podolski wants to shine a light on family violence. Picture: DYLAN DE JONG “This year we’re asking the community to contribute a photo of themself holding a light, or a five to 10-second video saying they stand up against domestic violence.” The committee will launch its social media campaign on November 27, sharing the messages of hope against domestic violence.

“Instead of doing the walk we are going to blanket social media with an online campaign that hopefully people will share with their families and raise awareness,” Mr Podolski said. He said he hoped support from Wimmera residents would help solidify the message that family violence was unacceptable.

“The behaviours you walk past are the behaviours we accept,” he said. “Reach out to people who you might think are victims – listen to those around you. The signs are obvious. Speak out.” Mr Podolski said it was key for the community, friends and family to encourage those experiencing family

violence to seek help. “I think it would be very challenging to take that first step, because you’re scared, you’re afraid and alone,” he said. “But I think once you make that first step, there’s so many agencies and support networks out there that will help you, they just need to know what’s going on. “In cases of family violence there is a deep fear of speaking up, and if the perpetrator finds out the repercussions of what’s going to happen can be frightening. “But I think the more we can help these people and let them know there is a way out, the better we can be as a society.” Mr Podolski has asked residents to email their photos or videos to shane. podolski@gmail.com to support the ‘Shine The Light’ campaign. • If you or someone you know is experiencing violence, call 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732 for advice or support. This free service providing confidential advice is open 24-7. In an emergency, call the police on triple zero, 000. People should report all incidents of violence to police.

Season 20 – Week 19 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2020

The Australian wool market has another volatile week, again experiencing significant upward and downward movements within the series. On the opening day, strong widespread competition helped to push prices higher, across all merino types and descriptions. The individual Micron Price Guides (MPGs) across the country added between 89 and 133 cents for the day. On the back of these solid increases, the AWEX Eastern Market Indicator (EMI) rose by 85 cents, this equated to a 7.5% rise. The increased price levels reached on the first day, could not be maintained through the second. Buyer sentiment noticeably softened and as a result prices dropped. By the end of the second day the MPGs in all three centres had lost between 30 and 79 cents. The EMI fell by 35 cents for the day. Despite the second day losses, the merino fleece market still recorded overall solid rises for the week, this was reflected in the EMI which added 50 cents for the series, closing the week at 1,188 cents. The current volatility in the market is highlighted by the movement in the EMI over the previous 10 selling days. Over this period the EMI has moved a total of 466 cents, this is an average movement of nearly 47 cents per auction day. The merino skirtings followed a very similar path to the fleece. Large price increases of between 80 and 140 cents on the first selling day, followed by losses of between 10 and 50 cents on the second. The oddments were the only sector to record overall losses for the series, the three merino carding indicators dropped by an average of 19 cents. The overall price rises for the series have encouraged more sellers to the market, resulting in an increase in next week’s national offering. Currently, there is 41,9969 bales available to the trade in Sydney, Melbourne and Fremantle.

Magazine shines in awards

he Weekly Advertiser has continued to set a benchmark in regional print media, clinching a major Victorian industry award.

The newspaper team won a Victorian Country Press Association Best Special Publication award for its 2019 LifeStyle Wimmera magazine, highlighting people and pastimes across the region. The award was all the more prestigious considering it was in an open-circulation category and up against many prominent, high-profile country Victorian publications. It won from highly commended submissions from the Mildura Weekly and Northern Times, Kerang. Judge Garry Baker congratulated all involved in production of the special publication. “I must first commend cadet journalist Lotte Reiter, who has written most of the content,” he said. “There are many interesting stories with quality accompanying photographs. The design is crisp, consistent and easy to read. “Advertisements are relevant and also well designed and the creative copy is what gave this publication

COMBINED EFFORT: Celebrating a Victorian Country Press Association win are, from left, The Weekly Advertiser advertising manager Mark Sulic, graphic designer Kelly Laird, sub-editor Georgia Bailey, senior journalist Sarah Matthews and general manager Brendan O’Loughlin. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER the extra couple of points needed to give it top billing. Well done to all involved.” The Weekly Advertiser editor Dean Lawson said the newspaper team was first class and deserved all accolades it received. “The day-to-day effort, commitment to readers and subject to detail by our relatively small team is nothing short of outstanding,” he said. “This applies to our weekly free

newspaper, which despite all sorts of hurdles has continued to blossom. “We’re going from strength to strength. This award is for last year’s publication and I truly believe this year’s LifeStyle Wimmera we have just released is even better.” ACE Radio Broadcasters produces The Weekly Advertiser and LifeStyle Wimmera from its Horsham office alongside radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM.

Horsham general manager Brendan O’Loughlin said he could not be prouder of the whole team involved. “It is just reward for all the effort that goes into these annual publications and also our paper every week,” he said. “We are a small team that continually matches it with the big publications. “To receive this team award really puts us among the best.”

Recipes for life in print An idea and passion to share simple, tasty and healthy recipes has led to a donation to Wimmera Cancer Centre. Horsham and District Relay For Life Committee fightback co-ordinator Lorinda Buckman came up with the idea, which led to a book called Recipes for Life. Book sales generated $4500 for the cancer centre. The book features recipes from Wimmera cancer survivors and carers. What started out as a small collaboration soon grew into a considerable collection of recipes and a photographic collection of memories from past relay events. Horsham graphic design and print specialist Shelley Baker from sb print worked with committee members to produce what the Relay For Life Committee described as a ‘keepsake for generations to come’. Committee chairman Kingsley Dalgleish expressed his appreciation to Horsham district businesses for their support in helping with the sale and promotion of the book.

Municipal election results

New leaders hit ground running N

ew municipal councils across the region are in the process of induction and electing mayors and other leadership and community committee roles as part of a local government settling period.

Northern Grampians and West Wimmera shire councils have already established their mayors. Northern Grampians councillors voted in Murray Emerson at a statutory meeting on Monday night despite pending by-elections for South West and Kara Kara wards, and West Wimmera councillors returned Bruce Meyer to the position at a statutory meeting last week. The Northern Grampians South West Ward by-election will be on November 28. Terence Robertson, Trevor Gready and Rosalind Byass are candidates for the solitary south-west seat. The shire will also need a by-election for Kara Kara Ward after successful candidate Karen Hyslop tendered her resignation before the statutory meeting. The Victorian Electoral Commission has yet to determine a date for the election. Ararat Rural City Council’s statutory meeting to elect a mayor is tomorrow and Horsham Rural City, Yarriambiack and Hindmarsh shire statutory gatherings are on November 18. Cr Emerson said he was looking forward to working with the new Northern Grampians council to ‘make Northern Grampians Shire an even better place to live, work, and play’. “It is a pleasure and privilege to be put in the mayoral position and I appreciate the opportunity,” he said. “None of us envisioned at this time last year we would be dealing with a pandemic called COVID-19. “While we should have been attending to other things, they have been put on the backburner for a short time, but I think we are starting to come towards

what we can call ‘COVID normal’, which will allow us to put time back into representing our communities, providing services and getting things done that the community are looking for. “A lot of things have changed with COVID; people’s lives became disrupted, our budget had to change to help people in need, the whole thing from this time last year changed completely, but now we are heading in the right direction. “It’s been a very challenging year but I am proud to say all my fellow councillors offered great support. Any time I needed help they did it with no qualms. “The same is true for chief executive Liana Thompson and her staff. The working relationship between councillors and staff has been magnificent and made a very difficult time a little less difficult. “I also extend a special welcome to our new councillor Lauren Dempsey. I believe she will do a great job. We’ve watched her involvement in many community programs and her involvement with youth citizen council initiatives and we are pleased to have her on board.”

Seven terms

Cr Meyer has been a West Wimmera councillor for 25 years, including seven previous terms as mayor. He said it was an honour and a privilege to again be elected West Wimmera mayor. “We’ve all got four years of working for the community in front of us and I’m sure that everyone will do their very best,” he said. “We as a team have the opportunity now to make improvements for the advancements of our community. Collectively we think alike on many issues and I know that everyone will play their part. “In 12 months’ time we want to be able to look back and say we’ve had a good year.”

Councillors ready for four-year stints GWMWater officer Penny Flynn topped the poll for the 2020 Horsham election, polling 3034 firstpreference votes, or 23.01 percent of the overall vote. Of the seven winning candidates, Di Bell, Robyn Gulline and Les Power also polled strongly. Ms Flynn said the election result reflected a mandate that there was a need for a council that looked after community interests. “It’s great that there are four out of seven who are women, so that’s a better representation of agenda split within our community,” she said. Robyn Gulline said she looked forward to working with a ‘constructive and productive’ group and was also excited that four women were represented on the council. “I hope we are a kinder and more conciliatory group,” she said. Di Bell joined Mrs Gulline in acknowledging respectful campaigns from all candidates. “Some of the things I’ve seen in other councils haven’t been so pleasant. I just hope that respect continues through the time we’re in office and in the chamber – that’s been the one disappointing thing in the past four years – I just want to see strong debate, people representing the people who have voted for them and do the best we can for the community and the municipality,” she said. The Horsham council includes six

first-time councillors, with Mr Power the only representative from the previous group. Horsham council chief executive Sunil Bhalla thanked all candidates. “Representing the people of our municipality is a great honour and I congratulate the newly elected councillors on their success and all candidates for their efforts during the election,” he said. “We look forward to working with the new councillors and helping them serve the community.” In Ararat, Jo Armstrong topped first-preference voting, elected first ahead of fellow former mayor Peter Beales, second elected after counting of preferences. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison welcomed ‘some new and some familiar’ faces to his new council. “I look forward to working with all of our new councillors to make our municipality a great place to live,” he said. “This is not an easy job and is very different to what many people imagine. “Over the next four years the councillors will help set the strategic direction of the council. “The community will see this reflected through the council’s annual budget and the four-year council plan.” Horsham: Penny Flynn, first-pref-

n annual East Grampians Health Service Residents’ Support Group Shopping Spree will take on a different format this year, to ensure a COVID-safe experience for shoppers and participating businesses.

Usually the promotion involves a shopping spree night, where teams of shoppers move between Ararat businesses with their passport or ticket qualifying them for special discounts. This year’s event will occur over a week. Shoppers who have a passport will be able to shop, subject to opening hours and shopper-density restrictions for each individual business, at their leisure during the week of November 16 to 22. The shopping spree raises money for East Grampians Health Service’s 70 Lowe Street and Garden View Court aged-care centre services. Residents support group president Marlene Goudie said rather than cancel the shopping spree due to COVID-19 restrictions, the group had altered the format to allow a COVID-safe shopping experience for passport holders. “It also shows support for our local businesses who have experienced a very difficult year,” she said. “Businesses are offering a generous discount for passport holders, some up to 20 percent, so as well as picking up some great bargains and early Christmas pres-

All passport holders will go into a draw to win a voucher from one of the participating businesses. Tickets for a giant raffle will be available in most businesses. The change in format has allowed 20 businesses to participate this year, including: Zest Living, Perry’s Footwear,

2 Taggs, Latus Jewellers, We’re Knot Crazy, Foster’s Mensland, CAS Couture, Something Beautiful, Growmaster Grampians, RACV Shop, Jerrams Auto Part and Electronics Centre, Harvey Norman, Intersport SportzBiz, Lyal Eales, Mountain Side Wines, Grampians First Aid, SafePower Safety Systems, Lake Bolac Information and Business Centre, Miners Ridge Vineyard and ATR Wines. “We look forward to seeing Barkly Street alive with activity during our shopping spree week,” Mrs Goudie said.

Stawell church leaders are bringing the community together through the power of art throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Stawell Uniting Church co-ordinator Sue Huddleston said leaders encouraged community members to create messages of gratitude to be displayed at the Scallan Street church. “We were delighted with the response of the community to our invitation to create messages of gratitude and how people decorated them for our first open art installation of ‘Gratitude Hearts’,” she said. “For our next installation, we picked up the ‘Spoonville’ theme, but displaying them was difficult due to the strong winds. So, we have taken photos and are putting them up to remind us all that we are truly companions on the road to-

Safety boost in Ararat N

ew footpath, lighting and sign upgrades will roll out in key locations across Ararat after funding through a State Government Community Crime Prevention Program.

Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison welcomed the investment, which will provide a safer, more inclusive link between two sides of the city for pedestrians. “The council has been supporting local jobs throughout the current health crisis by ramping up a number of community infrastructure projects along the active corridor from Alexandra Oval to Queen Street,” he said. “This includes the netball court development, Olver Grandstand upgrade, a multi-use ball court at Ararat Skate Park and landscaping at Alexandra Gardens. “The rail line currently divides this corridor from the town centre, causing many people to avoid the rail and pool underpasses due to the poor visibility and isolation of these structures. “The $200,000 Community Safety Infrastructure Grant supports council’s own $100,000 contribution to install new lighting, pathways and signs to link the entire corridor, making pedestrian access safer and the area more inviting to the public.”

Projects include: • Pedestrian wayfinding upgrade – Signs containing landmark maps and historical facts will be placed in various access points between north and south tracks. • Skate park facilities – Construction of a new public toilet to improve convenience and accessibility at the skate park. • Station rail underpass – Lighting upgrades through the station rail underpass, connecting the railway station with the skate park precinct, residential area and hospital. • Pool rail underpass – New signs to provide clearer points of entry to the garden entrance at the oval and from the south side of the underpass at Alexandra Hall. • Queen Street green link – A range of protective enhancements will be installed in stages through the empty green link to ensure easier, safer crossings. Construction of a well-lit path and concrete pram crossings provides a clear and safer pedestrian access way through town. “These upgrades will allow us to strengthen and expand our safety measures for our public spaces, making Ararat safer while keeping the pipeline of local projects going to get people back to work,” Dr Harrison said.

Members wanted to drive business change Business Horsham leaders are looking to appoint a ‘new and fresh’ executive committee of management to help lead positive and progressive change. The organisation will form a new committee at its annual meeting on Tuesday. The meeting will be online, via Zoom, from 7.30pm. Business Horsham ambassador Stacey Taig said the organisation wanted to recruit individuals who were committed to growing not only their own business, but all businesses throughout the municipality. “This is a time of immense change within our local community and more

specifically our business community,” she said. “Are you looking to help make a difference, not just for your business but for that of the entire business community in Horsham?” Ms Taig said the Business Horsham team would be comprised of ‘smart, experienced, driven and vibrant individuals’ making a difference by supporting and guiding business programs and projects. “For further understanding of the commitment to our team, we invite you to talk with one of our current executive members,” she said.

Ms Taig said Business Horsham members would receive formal invitations to the annual meeting. She invited people to nominate for the committee via a form available in the ‘about us’ section on the Business Horsham website, businesshorsham.com.au. “On behalf of our amazing and dedicated committee members and staff, I encourage you to nominate and look forward to hearing from you soon,” she said.

Fay 50 years strong in croquet P

BY DYLAN DE JONG

ersistence and determination are the only words that come close to summing up Horsham resident Fay Pearson’s half-century dedicated to the sport of croquet.

A passion to always be at the top of her game is what has led to her winning accolades for her time in the lesserknown sport. The game referred to by some as ‘snooker on grass’ is a game that requires patience and demands a great deal of tactical thinking. And for Mrs Pearson, these challenges are among major factors that kept her playing for 50 years. “It is a challenging sport where the tactics are quite fascinating – it’s also really great for keeping fit,” she said. “I’m 86 now and I’m still playing, you can play until you can’t walk. “Every game is different, it’s such a challenge and it’s good for your mind.” Mrs Pearson has represented her state on four occasions, in Melbourne, Sydney Brisbane and Adelaide, and the Wimmera in a country regional competition more than 13 times. At age 36, Mrs Pearson succumbed to an elbow injury, which forced her to pull out of tennis. In seeking an alternative sport, her mother-in-law introduced her to croquet, which led to her joining Warracknabeal Croquet Club. She later moved on to Horsham Kalimna Park Croquet Club, in 2011. Mrs Pearson was awarded an Australian Sports Medal in 2000 – a unique award that was designed to commemorate the efforts of Australians who had made the country a nation of ‘sporting excellence’.

GAME ON: Horsham’s Fay Pearson, 86, has played croquet for 50 years and is still competing against the best in the state. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER Mrs Pearson was also awarded Sports Person of the Year in Warracknabeal in 2010. She said her long list of achievements was a result of many years of training, hours of travelling across Australia for competitions and an overall love of the game. “I was really thrilled to get in the state teams. There’s only four women and four men who play in a different state each year against six states,” she said. “My training involved a lot of travelling. “I went to Melbourne from Warracknabeal for practice and it was all off your own back because it’s not a

high-profile sport, you have to support yourself.” The sport, which originated in France in the 17th century, requires players to hit two balls in a specified sequence through six hoops twice. The game demands ball control and ‘cunning’ tactics with added flavours of strategic planning, self-control and ‘flair’. Mrs Pearson said the sport had reduced in popularity across the Wimmera in recent years. The Warracknabeal club disbanded late last year due to a lack of players. Mrs Pearson said her new club in Horsham had also had a significant re-

duction in players. “The Warrack team had 48 members when I started and it got down to three members in the finish and just couldn’t keep going,” she said. “Croquet is not a high-profile sport, but I think it should be. “It’s a fascinating game and people would start playing if they only knew about it.” Mrs Pearson is planning to step up to Croquet Victoria’s Country Regional Championships, scheduled for Horsham in April next year. The 2020 competition was cancelled earlier in the year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Christmas challenge Residents of Willaura, Lake Bolac and surrounding towns have an invitation to help brighten the end of the year by putting up Christmas decorations. Willaura-Lake Bolac Community Bank, ACE Radio, Ararat Rural City Council and Gorst Rural are supporting the community effort and encouraging people to decorate houses, businesses and rural properties – the more the merrier. Event spokeswoman Lyn Webster said people so inclined could use the opportunity for creative upcycling. “The internet provides plenty of inspiration, such as old tyres that are painted and decorated to become Christmas trees or wreaths, albeit very large. Inspiration can also come from some of our farmers who have a track record in being very creative and humorous with their paddock Christmas displays,” she said. People can register their addresses, collect maps and vote on displays at Willaura and Lake Bolac Community Bank branches. Competition categories are most popular residential display, business display and farm-rural display. Voting starts on December 1 and closes December 22. Prizes for each category are: $150 shop local voucher – residential; $150 local goods-produce hamper – business; and $150 Gorst Rural voucher – farm or rural.

Call to act on fire risk

SHOVEL READY: Enterprise Rupanyup chair Malcolm Uhe at the site of a new supermarket to be built in the town. Project leaders hope the supermarket will be up and running by mid-2021. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Milestone for Rupanyup R

BY DYLAN DE JONG

upanyup residents are eagerly anticipating the opening of a new supermarket next year as permit approvals allow for building to start.

Enterprise Rupanyup, ERup, a community-organised consortium set up to steer the project, is excited to see the Cromie Street supermarket take shape as construction starts this week. Yarriambiack Shire Council late last month approved a building permit from project contractor On-

ley Holdings from Donald. The ERup board has signed an agreement with Minyip IGA owners Luke Cox and Cassey Jenkinson to lease the premises and operate the supermarket. ERup chair Malcolm Uhe said the board expected the supermarket to be completed by mid-2021. “It’s a six to eight-month build time. We are looking around June next year for it to be finished,” he said. Mr Uhe said the building permit approval was a tribute to the per-

sistence of everyone involved in a ‘long and arduous’ journey. “It’s the reality of small towns – that’s what you have to do, band together and get the work done,” he said ERup’s plans are to establish an overall shopping centre that would include three additional shops. The additional retail vacancies could include a café and pharmacy as well as open spaces for town events. Mr Uhe said when the supermarket was completed, the committee

would seek further funding opportunities to build the precinct. “The supermarket itself will generate an income for the community,” he said. “But we will also need to start looking at State Government grants or other funding options to complete the precinct.” The State Government committed $500,000 to the project in 2018, with another $400,000 sourced from Yarriambiack Shire Council and money raised by RupanyupMinyip Community Bank.

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy is calling on the State Government to address ‘out-of-control’ roadside vegetation before summer and an impending bushfire season. Ms Kealy said the Nationals raised concerns in State Parliament last week about the ‘poor’ standard of roadside vegetation. The call was for the roads minister to launch an intensive slashing and vegetation removal program in high-risk areas. “Unkept and uncleared roadsides significantly add to fuel loads, which act as a wick during bushfires,” Ms Kealy said. “Throughout Lowan we see burgeoning outof-control long grass and weed species growing on our roadsides. “Property owners have a legal responsibility to keep their land cleared and fire safe, so it is time the Andrews Labor government acted on its own directive and properly maintained our roadsides.” Ms Kealy said in addition to contributing to fuel loads during bushfire season, roadside vegetation was impeding driver visibility in many areas, including where trees grew close to roads. “The past two summers have seen areas of Victoria significantly impacted by bushfires, and the Andrews government should have learned lessons around the importance of fuel reduction,” she said. “It is critical the government properly resources VicRoads to get on top of slashing and management of roadside vegetation to mitigate fire risk. “Country Fire Authority estimates that roadside slashing decreases any potential flame height by half, and when maintained it is easier to extinguish fires quickly. “Fuel reduction saves lives. The government must stop cutting corners and address roadside vegetation and the safety issues it is creating.”

Tim taps into global music platform C

last three shows. It certainly improved my confidence. I now always push myself. If I want to do something I’m interested in, I will do it.”

BY DYLAN DE JONG

reativity has opened up a world of opportunities for Horsham’s Tim O’Donnell.

Rapping and singing has boosted Mr O’Donnell’s mental health and allowed him to collaborate with musicians across the globe. He was recently successful in having a song he collaborated on published in French video game company Ubisoft’s latest release, Watch Dogs: Legion. The opportunity emerged from online creative-sharing platform Hit Record, where artists from beginners to experts can come together to collaborate on projects. Through the platform, people can upload a piece of music, photography, writing or video that can then be reviewed or remixed by others. Mr O’Donnell joined the platform about five years ago and has since uploaded and contributed to innumerable projects from music through to writing and voice acting. Some of his latest work will be featured in another Ubisoft game, Beyond Good and Evil 2, which will be released next year. He has also collaborated on a book called ‘The Art of Breaking Up’ and is working with another Horsham artist on a project called A Walk Into The Dark Place. “To think I would be on a video game or at least have a few lines in a game from a song was pretty out there thinking for me,” Mr O’Donnell said. “But now it’s come to reality – it was a nice happy accident.” In his family home growing up in Mount Gambier, music and the arts

Mental boost

CREATIVE: Tim O’Donnell is urging young people to explore the possibilities of online art-sharing platforms to connect with like-minded creative people. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER were fostered from a young age. In his late teens he went on to share his love for music as a DJ, radio presenter and singing karaoke. Mr O’Donnell said before he stumbled across the online platform, he had lacked the confidence in his own ability to write, sing and rap original music. “I was singing karaoke for most of my life, but I had never really done a lot independently and didn’t know I was capable of it,” he said.

“But I discovered I am. I was fascinated by the collaborative process because I can’t play any instruments, but I can sing and wrap and write lyrics. “It’s a real privilege to express a part of you in a safe space where you can be creative and it’s not as cut-throat – you’re just making music.” The online platform opened up a new doorway for Mr O’Donnell. After cutting his teeth on some online projects, he then went on to perform more publicly in musical the-

atre and in Horsham-based band The Introverts. In recent years, he has starred in Horsham Arts Council lead roles in performances such as Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Little Shop of Horrors and Mamma Mia! “HitRecord set the wheels in motion for me to go and audition for the arts council, which taught me to sing better,” he said. “They have such awesome trainers and mentors that I’ve run into in the

Mr O’Donnell said exploring his creativity was also a major boost to his mental health, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. “It is great therapy for me,” he said. “I’ll just get on there and write music or poetry. It would help me get through a day, especially during COVID-19. “It’s helped me deal with being alone. I create every day as a strategy to stay well.” Mr O’Donnell said he wanted to encourage others, especially young people, to explore the possibilities that existed in online art-sharing platforms such as HitRecord. “The internet has a power to connect people. In rural areas we struggle a lot with connecting with like-minded creative people,” he said. “This just shows that you don’t have to do it face-to-face, but you do have to have an internet connection. “And if you have that then you can suddenly tap into thousands of people who are interested in the same things you are. “My only regret is I didn’t go for this earlier, but I probably didn’t have the confidence or the platform back then. “When you’re sitting at home, especially during COVID, being creative is the best thing you can do to occupy your time. “So, pick up that pen, start typing in that computer, start drawing on that iPad and enjoy being creative.”

EXCITED: Kaniva Kindergarten students admire their creations on display at Elders Real Estate in Commercial Street.

Silo art inspiration A new art installation at Kaniva has provided kindergarten students with inspiration to create their own mini silo art interpretations. Kaniva Kindergarten students watched artist David Lee Pereira paint a mural on the town’s GrainCorp silo, as part of the Wimmera’s Silo Art Trail. They then set about creating their mini replicas out of recycled tins. The creations are on display at Elders Real Estate in Commercial Street, Kaniva. Kindergarten teacher Gracie Elliott said the idea was to enable parents and friends to see the children’s art, as COVID-19 restrictions prevented visitation at the kindergarten. “I felt during coronavirus we really lost that sense of community that we worked so hard to get,” she said. “Being offered a window space was a wonderful chance to showcase the artwork – it has been lovely to see the children and grandparents and anyone who’s interested go look.” Pereira completed the mural of a hobby falcon and orchids on the town’s silo late last month.

Mrs Elliott said her students visited the silo on several occasions. “The silo is right near the kinder, so we were walking down regularly to watch the progression of it – the kids took that inspiration to the art table,” she said. “We got some formula tins and old tins and painted them. Some students did some free-hand drawing, and some did some colouring in.” Elders administration staff member Vanessa Drendel said the kindergarten’s contribution would be a great tool to promote more excitement around the Silo Art Trail. “It’s a great promotion. To see the kids’ interpretation, that’s a really good community approach to something that’s brand new and creates a bit of interest,” she said. “Our team at Elders is really happy to support the community. “These students are our future farmers, shop keepers, members of society, so it’s really great to highlight what kids can do.” – Dylan De Jong

Council changes funding design Northern Grampians Shire Council is changing the way it processes grants and sponsorship programs to a month-bymonth assessment and funding cycle. The new approach means the council will accept and evaluate applications on a select list of grants and sponsorships monthly throughout the year. Northern Grampians Shire Council chief executive Liana Thompson said the new assessment cycle would make the process of seeking project funding much easier for the community. “The best part of this new

Comfort from home...

month-by-month cycle for funding applications is that an individual or organisation can now apply at a time of year that suits them and their project deadline,” she said. “Often applying for a grant means having to wait weeks for the next round to start and this can slow down the whole process of getting a project up and running. The monthly application cycle is a lot more responsive and, we believe, helpful at kick-starting projects when the applicants make the most use of the funding. “If you or your organisation have an idea that requires fund-

ing we encourage you to look at the wide selection of grants and sponsorships available each month and discuss your application with our community development officers.” In 2021 applications will be due on the first Tuesday of the month, for assessment on the fourth Tuesday of the month. Applicants must first make contact with a council community development team to discuss proposals and seek guidance on the most appropriate grant for their project.

GREAT TO VISIT: Lake Charlegrark Caravan Park caretakers Lorraine and Barry Oliver on the jetty at Lake Charlegrark near Goroke. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

‘Lakes country’ awaits travellers T

BY DEAN LAWSON

he remote and wide-open spaces of west Wimmera lakes country represents a potential lure for holiday-makers keen to make the most of an end to state travel restrictions.

That’s the hope of business operators keen to tap into an expected flood of tourists into the regions this summer. Lorraine Oliver, who with husband Barry is caretaker of Lake Charlegrark Caravan Park near Goroke, said the west Wimmera represented one of the best-kept tourism secrets in Victoria. She said the region’s lakes such as Charlegrark, Ratzcastle, Bringalbert and Newlands were obvious magnets for recreational water enthusiasts. “But the attractions go well beyond that. Regardless of the amount of water these lakes hold at any time, they offer much broader outdoor visitor experiences,” she said. “To some extent the lakes country is one of the great and often overlooked jewels of the southwest of the state. “There is so much nature and wildlife out here and people looking for wilderness experiences are rarely disappointed.” Much of the west Wimmera is home to unique geographic land formations dating back millions of years. An ancient sea, which in prehistoric times stretched deeply into Victoria from what’s now the South Australian coastline, left landscape-scale swales and ridgeways as it gradually retreated to the south-west. The result was a propensity for a string of naturally occurring wetlands to evolve over time in the north-south swales.

“To some extent the lakes country is one of the great and often overlooked jewels of the south-west of the state. There is so much nature and wildlife out here and people looking for wilderness experiences are rarely disappointed”

– Lorraine Oliver

In contemporary times the wetlands, particularly in seasons of average rain, have provided a bounty for anglers, yabby hunters and other recreational water users and a reason why West Wimmera Shire is known as ‘lakes country’. “All the lakes are beautiful and great places to visit. Some of the imagery can be spectacular, great for taking photographs or simply relaxing,” Mrs Oliver said. Lake Charlegrark has attracted people to an annual Lake Charlegrark Country Music Marathon for decades and the lake also has a considerable reputation for producing monster Murray cod for visiting anglers. The 2021 music festival has been cancelled based on COVID-19 uncertainty, but planning is well underway for a return in 2022. Blue-green algae blooms are also a regular threat to how much people can use some of the lakes, but Mrs Oliver said simply visiting the area had an appeal of its own. “From our perspective, it is a great place for day-trippers or for people who need an escape to have a few days at our caravan park and enjoy all its amenities,” she said. “The wide-open doors of the west Wimmera are open.”

Campfire safety patrols The Conservation Regulator is stepping up patrols across western Victoria’s Grampians region, targeting illegal campfires. Conservation Regulator officers, with Forest Fire Management Victoria, will patrol popular camping and recreation areas such as Rocklands Reservoir through to Wombat State Forest and Lake Burrumbeet. Officers will look for unsafe campfires, to prevent bushfires being started by negligence and penalise people found in breach of campfire Wednesday, November 11, 2020

safety rules. They will also remind visitors about campfire safety and encourage people to report suspicious or illegal activities, including unattended campfires, to 136 186. Campfire safety rules are always in force on public land.

Money flows in for roads N

orthern Grampians Shire Council has secured more than $4-million in Federal Government road and infrastructure funding through a combination of successful applications and COVID-19 stimulus packages.

The council has been allocated $3,396,363 through a Local Roads and Community Infrastructure, LRCI, fund and $696,000 from a Heavy Vehicles Safety and Productivity Program. Through the LRCI program, the council has received $1,857,984 and will receive a further $1,538,379 under a program extension. The council will use the money for projects across the shire, including Stawell’s Central Park perimeter fencing, Halls Gap Heath Street upgrades and in St Arnaud, a new road at Lord Nelson Park and all-ability, social and sensory improvements for play areas at Market Square. The council also applied for funding through the HVSPP and three applications were successful. Each of these projects have council co-contributions. The projects jointly funded by the HVSPP and the council will lead major road and infrastructure improvements in St Arnaud and Campbells Bridge. Wedderburn Road in St Arnaud East has a $300,000 upgrade courtesy of a $150,000 grant.

St Arnaud’s Queens Avenue and Millett Street intersection will also undergo rehabilitation with a $170,000 co-contribution for the $340,000 project. Intersection work includes road surfacing and widening and footpath construction. Campbells Bridge Road in Campbells Bridge will benefit from a $376,000 co-contribution for a $752,000 works program. The works are designed to improve route safety and productivity through road widening, sealing and upgrading. Northern Grampians Shire Council chief executive Liana Thompson said the Federal Government funding would have ‘far-reaching’ benefits for the shire. “It will help shape significant improvements in roads and community infrastructure,” she said. “Shire residents will be delighted with the new fencing, car parking and many stretches of walkway and play areas. “Both local and visiting road users will benefit from the improved road safety and more efficient travel through our region. “It is absolutely marvellous to have this level of financial support from the Federal Government for important shire projects and the improvements will, no doubt, be highly valued by our community.”

Kiri wins her way to Canberra A young leader from Stawell who won an award for championing women’s rights will have an opportunity to meet her role models in Australia’s capital city. Stawell Secondary College year-10 student Kiri Artz is among 16 young rural leaders across Australia to be recognised. Kiri was the winner of a Country to Canberra leadership competition for a speech she wrote about women’s rights and gender equity. As part of the award, Kiri has won a ‘Power Trip’ to Canberra to meet ‘inspirational leaders’ such as politicians, chief executives and mentors. “I never thought that I would win – it’s crazy,” Kiri said. “I’m hoping to meet a lot of my role models within parliament, such as Sarah Hanson-Young from The Greens party, because she really stands up for herself against sexism in parliament.” Kiri’s award-winning entry highlighted a societal need for women and girls to continue to support and stand up for one another. She said misogyny and patriarchy was still hidden throughout society and continued to discourage women. “I was really thinking about the fact that women are underrepresented in our society and workplaces – especially in parliament,” she said. “I really think that by supporting and helping each other succeed we can empower each other in times of need.” In her piece, Kiri argued women must stand up for themselves and each other when gender inequalities and objectification was present. She said she believed equality could be achieved when people started to

SHINE THE LIGHT on family violence

INSPIRED: Stawell young leader Kiri Artz will have a chance to meet her role models in Canberra in 2021 after winning a leadership award. speak out against ‘everyday sexism’. “Every day sexist jokes or remarks or things like double standards that we see every day, I hear these things all the time and it just seems to be the norm – especially for me as a highschool student,” she said. “When you hear those remarks being made, it’s just about telling people to think about it. Is what you’re saying really fair? What would happen if the roles were reversed, would it still be funny? “I think that we have come a long way from the past, but I do believe there is a fair way to go and we can definitely get there by supporting each

other, advocating for social change and bringing issues to the surface so they can be exposed and looked at.” This year’s ‘Power Trip’ has been postponed until 2021 due to COVID-19. The winners will get to meet one another in a virtual setting during a two-day online program, called C2C On Screen. The inaugural online experience will play host to a series of events, including a mentorship round robin and leadership workshops. The Power Trip will be rescheduled for a suitable time in 2021. – Dylan De Jong

ARE YOU FIRE READY?

Prepare for fire season

ountry Fire Authority District 17 Commander Lindsay Barry is asking people to prepare their properties as we head towards another fire season.

Mr Barry said rain had kept ground moisture relatively high in Victoria’s west and central regions, but the regions had the potential to dry out quickly under dry and warm conditions. “Although Victoria’s traditional period of increased fire activity is in January and February, the outlook suggests there will be a level of unpredictability around when fires will occur over the summer period and how intense they are likely to be,” he said. Mr Barry said property preparation meant people could minimise the chance of property damage during a fire, even if they planned to leave early. “Reduce your fire risk now and slash, mow, graze and spray grass near your home and assets, and create fuel breaks,” he said. “Reducing fuel loads will ensure that if a fire does break out, it has less chance of taking hold or spreading. “Any rain we do experience

in spring will produce growth, which could very easily become a high fuel load throughout the summer season if not properly managed.” Mr Barry also emphasised that while CFA and its partner agencies Parks Victoria, Forest Fire Management, DELWP and Emergency Management Victoria were doing everything they could to prepare for the bushfire season, agencies looked to the community to use common sense and take responsibility for preventing fires. “There is still a window of opportunity to clean up your property if you haven’t already done so before the start of the coming Fire Danger Period,” he said. Mr Barry said people needed to be aware that if using fire to clean up around their properties they needed to obtain a permit from their local council and register the burn on 1800 668 511. “People should not burn off during strong wind or when strong wind was forecast – not only on the day of your burn but for the days afterwards,” he said. “For information about burn-off restrictions specific to your area, consult your local council.”

CLEAN UP: Ararat Rural City Council emergency management officers Joel Farrow and Clara Orr inspect a property for a fire prevention notice.

Planning for a safe community

rarat Rural City Council is urging its residents to comply with fire prevention measures at their properties to mitigate risks this emergency season.

The council’s emergency management team is out in force to inspect properties and help residents remove fire hazards across the municipality. The teams will also undergo checks to ensure residents are following priorities on fire prevention notices. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the notices helped residents identify risks such as long grass, fallen

leaves, branches and other debris that builds up around properties, especially in gutters. “The council is urging everyone to be prepared for fire season, which starts with clearing your property of any potential fire hazards and having a plan,” he said. “Council officers will be helping the community prepare by identifying potential fire hazards and working with residents to reduce the fire risk. “Fire prevention notices are distributed to ensure everyone contributes to the safety of our community – it is important everyone remove any fire hazards

from your property for your safety and the community.” Dr Harrison said even with a La Niña weather event likely to bring wet weather this season, fire was an ‘ever-present’ risk throughout summer. He said increased rainfall could result in grass and plants growing more rapidly, creating an even greater fire risk. “The council encourages everyone in our municipality to implement a fireready plan in the event of an emergency,” he said. “To get started, there are a range of resources available on our website, ararat.vic.gov.au.”

Exploring burning history T

he Federal Government is highlighting the importance of indigenous fire and land management by opening a $2-million grants round to strengthen and share knowledge. As part of its $200-million Wildlife and Bushfire Habitat Recovery fund, indigenous organisations and Traditional Owner groups can now apply for funding to run workshops, build understanding and share knowledge. This includes the use of indigenous burning techniques which can mitigate fire risk, reduce fuel loads, control weeds, promote growth in native pastures, strengthen biodiversity outcomes and provide environmental and cultural benefits. Barengi Gadjin Land Council is already exploring collaborative fire-management across the Wimmera. It started a new cultural burning project Right Burning to Make Country Good with help from the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning earlier this year. Federal Agriculture, Drought and Emergency Management Minister David Littleproud said indigenous fire management had an important role to play in bushfire-prevention plans. “We are investing in protecting communities and the environment in the face of future challenges and this program underlines the breadth of the strategies we are building and will continue to implement,” he said.

“We want to help empower Traditional Owners to strengthen and share their knowledge within their communities and build capacity to undertake indigenous fire and land management across Australia. Environment Minister Sussan Ley said there was increasing recognition of the value of traditional knowledge and practice in environmental and bushfire management, and the government wanted Traditional Owners to broadly share that knowledge “Grants from $20,000 to $200,000 are available for indigenous-led workshops that strengthen knowledge within indigenous communities and collaboration with public and private land managers,” she said. Indigenous Australians Minister Ken Wyatt said Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians had managed the land over tens of thousands of years and it was more important than ever to learn from their knowledge and practices. “Traditional culture has a vital role to play alongside modern science and methods,” he said. “These workshops will help build and share that knowledge base in ways that will promote greater cultural understanding and better outcomes in managing fuel loads and the environment in general.” The grants are open only to Traditional Owner groups, indigenous organisations and indigenous enterprises.

Recruits put through paces

orest Fire Management Victoria firefighter recruits from across the region have undergone a rigorous training course to learn firefighting skills ahead of the upcoming season.

CULTURAL BURN: Barengi Gadjin Land Council ranger Lachie Marks ignites a cultural burn near Mt Arapiles. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Using a mix of classroom and fieldbased activities, the 17 new project firefighter recruits have learnt essential elements of firefighting including fire behaviour, fire suppression and planned burning. Recruits have also undergone training in other safety and survival techniques such as four-wheel driving and use of chainsaws, essential for forest firefighting. The recruits will now continue on-thejob learning alongside permanent staff and will respond to bushfires and lead planned burns, slashing, track clearing and other land-management activities. Recruits were spread across training locations in Horsham, Edenhope, Halls Gap, Wail and Cavendish. Forest Fire Management operations officer Peter Harradine said the recruitment process and training involved adaptations to deal with challenges posed by COVID-19 restrictions. “We have managed to become very adaptable throughout the process, with online recruitment and training replacing traditional methods,” he said. “Demonstration days and practical sessions normally at air bases of fire towers have been filmed and will be delivered to participants over technology. All involved have been extremely committed and we look forward to seeing the positive outcomes of training.”

Summer outlook

orecasters are predicting a ‘normal’ fire season in 2020-21, but possible spring rain is likely to have an impact on fire potential in the lead up to and during summer. While the outlook indicates that above-average winter rain has substantially reduced the risk of ‘campaign’ fires in Victoria’s east to the end of November, parts of the Wimmera, Mallee, North East and Far South West are drier than normal. Bushfire and Natural Hazards Co-operative Research Centre, with the Bureau of Meteorology and fire and land managers, has developed the outlook and Country Fire Authority is working to ensure the public understands the season. While there is a high chance of above-median rainfall north and south of the Divide during spring, this rain is likely to affect bushfire potential for the west and south-west of the state. The severity of fires in the west half of the state will depend on several factors, including the amount, location and timing of rain in spring and summer. Emergency-management agencies are constantly analysing circumstances for changes in conditions.

How does the outlook differ

East and West Gippsland and the North East were a focus for emergency services last summer, as dry conditions over consecutive years resulted in above-normal bushfire conditions. In 2019-20 there were more than 3500 grass, scrub and bush fires and fires burnt more than 1.5-million hectares. Lighting strike started the first bushfires in East Gippsland on November 21 and some burnt for more than 100 days.

What resources will be available

All available emergency management agencies will be on standby to respond to incidents across the state. This includes thousands of our dedicated volunteer and career firefighters from across

all agencies. Aircraft will provide immediate fire response and pre-determined dispatch across the state, allowing water bombing aircraft to respond to fires at the same time as fire trucks.

GENERAL PLASTIC/POLY REPAIRS & WELDING

What aircraft will be used?

The State Government has provided $29-million in funding for a fleet of 51 aircraft. The fleet includes a mix of water-bombing aircraft, air-supervision and air-intelligence-gathering aircraft. The Victorian fleet has been critical in stopping the spread of fire over recent years, providing immediate response in the early stage of fires and supporting firefighters on the ground, including across eastern Victoria earlier this year. From November 1, 2019, to March 31, 2020, there were a total of 2046 aircraft dispatches. Victoria will also have support by a surge capacity of up to 100 aircraft, which can be called to supplement the core fleet when needed.

How can Victorians prepare?

The Country Fire Authority’s message for all Victorians is to start preparing homes and properties now. Making informed decisions is vital to your safety during a fire. Taking steps to get prepared before the fire season means you know what to do when you’re at risk of fire. Talk to family and friends about how you’ll know when to leave and where to go to stay safe. Pack important documents, photos, medications, money and clothes so you can leave easily before a fire starts. You could be at serious risk of uncontrollable fires on severe, extreme and code red days. It’s up to you to stay informed. Check the fire danger ratings daily and act to protect yourself and your family. All Victorians need to know what to do in the event of a fire, and on severe, extreme and code red days. Know your risk and what to do in the event of a fire.

Competitive Great Wall Ute arrives from $33,990 driveaway

reat Wall Motor has revealed the initial driveaway pricing for the most affordable of its new ute variants, with the entrylevel Canon set to be priced from $33,990.

Pricing for the rest of the three-variant range – including recommended retail price – remains unknown, but is expected to be revealed in about two weeks, along with the full specification details. Australia-bound utes will be powered by Great Wall Motor’s own 2.0-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine producing 120kW of power

and 400Nm of torque, placing it at the lower end of the 4x4 pick-up segment in both respects. Transmission duties will be taken care of exclusively by an eight-speed auto courtesy of ZF. GWM Australia head of marketing Steve Maciver said the company firmly believes the new GWM Ute offers a compeling all-round package that will make Australian buyers think differently about their next purchase. “The $33,990 entry price point for the 4x4 dual cab Cannon AT is quite exceptional given the high level of features buyers can expect,” he said.

“We understand both the competitiveness and the opportunity in the ute segment and as such, it was important that we come in with a strong product offering and unbeatable value.” In terms of power and price, the ute can be seen more as a rival for the SsangYong Musso and LDV T60 than the all-conquering Toyota HiLux and Ford Ranger, besting the Korean on price and the Chinese offering on both power and torque. For reference, the equivalent Musso ELX automatic is priced at $32,490 plus on-road costs and generates 133kW-420Nm from its 2.2-litre

turbo-diesel engine. The T60 Pro, meanwhile, can be had in automatic guise from $32,621 driveaway, with its 2.8-litre turbo-diesel mill producing 110kW-360Nm. As previously reported by GoAuto, the ute will come as standard with ‘allterrain technology’ courtesy of Bosch to help make it as capable as possible off-road, with the whole package riding on independent front suspension and heavy-duty leaf springs at the rear to maximise payload carrying capacity. While standard equipment lists are also yet to be detailed, Great Wall

Motor has revealed all variants would come with plenty of safety features including lane keep assist, seven airbags and autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection. Mr Maciver added that Great Wall Motor was expecting ‘to see increased customer interest in showrooms over the coming weeks’ as the brand worked towards the ute’s national launch later in the month. The Chinese firm has sold 1358 vehicles so far this year ending September, 106 more than it managed during the same period last year. – Callum Hunter

Mazda bolsters its BT-50 line-up

azda Australia has wasted no time in bolstering its allnew BT-50 line-up, last week revealing the pricing of its tradie and fleet-minded single and Freestylecab variants hitting the market from $36,550 and $40,050 plus on-roads respectively.

One important factor to note, however, is the BT-50 single and Freestyle cabs’ recommended retail prices do not include a genuine Mazda alloy tray – you will need to fork out an extra $2470 and $2300 for that luxury, however the extra outlay does include fitting. Available solely in the XT trim level, there are only three major choices prospective customers are faced with when speccing their new work-oriented BT-50; cab style, drive type and transmission. At the bottom of the range, the 4x2s come exclusively with a six-speed automatic transmission, while the 4x4s are available with the choice of either six-speed manual or automatic as per the 4x4 dual-cab range. Unsurprisingly the automatics are priced upstream of the manuals, carrying a $2500 premium across the 4x4 range, which kicks off from $41,550 for the single-cab manual and tops out at $47,550 for the Freestyle-cab automatic.

CHOICES: Mazda has added work-minded single and Freestyle-cab variants to its BT-50 range.

A Mazda spokesperson said the auto-only situation for the 4x2 variants was the result of factory supply and availabilities during the initial planning phase. “We will continue to monitor the market and take on dealer and customer feedback on this topic, and make any announcements in due course,” they said.

Just like in the dual-cab range, all variants are powered by an Isuzusourced 3.0-litre turbo-diesel fourcylinder engine developing 140kW of power and 450Nm of torque. Braked towing capacity is rated at 3500kg across the range, while fuel economy is pegged at a claimed 8.0 litres per 100km on the combined cycle. Standard equipment, meanwhile,

consists of 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, power adjustable wing mirrors, black cloth upholstery, airconditioning, power windows, carpet floor covering, cruise control – automatics score an adaptive system, 7.0inch infotainment touchscreen, Apple CarPlay-Android Auto, Bluetooth, DAB+ digital radio and a reversing camera.

Safety tech is generous too, with all BT-50s boasting a five-star ANCAP safety rating thanks to eight airbags, attention assist, autonomous emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, emergency lane keeping assist, emergency stop signal, automatic high beam, hill descent control, hill launch assist, lane departure warning, lane departure prevention, lane-keep assist for automatics, rear cross-traffic alert, rollover protection, secondary collision reduction, speed assist system, traction control and turn assist. Mazda Australia managing director Vinesh Bhindi said the new variants maintained the brand’s philosophy of offering greater customer choice. “For brand-new Mazda BT-50, the new single-cab and Freestyle-cab models complement the impressive dual-cab model range that we released in September,” he said. “With a similarly wide array of Mazda genuine accessories available, the BT-50 range can genuinely be tailored to suit the customer’s lifestyle.” Mazda has sold 2060 BT-50 4x2s and 5343 4x4s so far this year ending September, accounting for 11.1 and five percent of their respective segments. – Callum Hunter

Isuzu MU-X arrival a mystery

suzu Ute has debuted what could end up being one of 2021’s most hotly anticipated large SUVs, with the D-Max-based MU-X sevenseater due to go on sale in Thailand this week, however Australian timing remains up in the air.

Just like the pick-up truck on which it is based, the MU-X has been treated to a multitude of styling, mechanical, platform and equipment upgrades to create the next-gen off-road family hauler. An important car for Isuzu Ute Australia, the MU-X was the third best-selling sub-$70,000 large SUV through the first nine months of 2020, occupying an eight percent share of the segment and making it the bestselling ute-based offering by more than 620 units. The most obvious differences between the current MU-X and the next generation one is of course the styling, with the new model borrowing a select few elements from the D-Max but largely carving out its own identity like some of its key rivals do. At the front there is an all-new fascia centred around the same toothed grille inserts as the D-Max, from there on however, everything is unique. Compared with the current model, the new MU-X brandished much narrower LED headlights, a narrower but

SOLID AND ELEGANT: Isuzu Ute says ruggedness and comfort go hand in hand in the new MU-X. taller grille and a more curvaceous front bumper containing the low-set foglights. Isuzu Ute says the new MU-X was designed around an ‘emotional and solid’ philosophy with emphasis placed on its ‘underbody strength’. Viewed from the side, the car boasts a greater sense of size and looks to ride a lot higher on its platform than the current model, more in the ilk of the Toyota Fortuner, despite only being 15mm taller. Overall length and wheelbase have grown too, up 25mm and 40mm respectively, as has the car’s width,

which is up 10mm. Sticking with the flanks, the overall theme and silhouette of the body has also been changed, now being much squarer with fewer rounded features and more straight body contour lines. At the rear is a completely redesigned C-pillar, which has been drastically moved back, dispensing with the current wraparound rear window design. The differences also continue with the tailgate, with the rear window now subtly sweeping upwards along its lower edge while the tail-lights have been made thinner and more pointed,

now flanking a bold Isuzu badge rather than the boot-release button. Said button is now mounted much lower down, cresting the inset numberplate mount, which in turn splits the secondary badging. While the exterior follows the aforementioned ‘emotional and solid’ design philosophy, Isuzu Ute says the interior follows a ‘solid and elegant’ philosophy with an emphasis on ruggedness and comfort. Essentially the cabin layout matches that of the latest D-Max and as such will mark a big step up in ergonomics, quality, comfort and tech with vari-

ous niceties including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto set to be offered as standard, accessed via the now familiar 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system. Given it rides on the same new-gen ladder-frame chassis as the D-Max, it should come as no surprise to find the same 3.0-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine residing under the bonnet, still producing 140kW-450Nm. Transmission duties will be handled by the same six-speed automatic transmission driving all four wheels via a part-time all-wheel-drive system. Much like the power outputs, fuel capacity has also risen to a usefully generous 80 litres, up 15 litres. Under the skin, the new MU-X rides on double-wishbone front and multilink rear suspension with disc brakes in all four corners as opposed to the rear drums of the D-Max. Naturally the MU-X inherits the same ‘Terrain Command’ system as its ute sibling, as well as the 800mm wading depth. While Isuzu Ute Australia was unable to confirm the exact timing of the new MU-X, it did say it was ‘monitoring the market response’ to the news of the new model to ensure that any product updates to the MU-X in the future met the Australian market’s requirements. – Callum Hunter

Miracles

Miracles by their very nature are supernatural. What this means is something extraordinary has happened, the laws of nature have ceased or changed. The first miracle, in the Gospel of John, occurs at the wedding in Cana (John 2:1-12). The miracle here is that water is turned into wine, not just OK wine or very good wine but the best wine. This of course has interesting implications for me as a Salvation Army Minister, traditionally non-drinkers, but the important thing here is that the ordinary became extra ordinary by the power of God. You can picture the scene, a joyful occasion with music, singing and dancing, with food and drink being consumed. The tradition was that the best wine was served first so as the party went along people’s senses would be dulled and they wouldn’t notice when the cheaper wine came out. It was at this celebration, this joyful occasion that a miracle occurred. A miracle that surprised all who knew what had happened and bought further joy to the life of the party, all those there. We too can experience the same, in our life and the situations we may find ourselves in, God can reach out and make the miraculous happen. All we have to do is get to know Him, become friends with the miracle maker. The miraculous, after all, points us to who he is, the Son of God and our savior.

Blue Panthers off to strong start BY DEAN LAWSON

upanyup-Minyip will attempt to build on early momentum when it takes on Jung Tigers in a Horsham Cricket Association oneday clash on Saturday.

The Blue Panthers are off to a flyer in the delayed season, courtesy of a mighty batting effort from Jake Leith. Opener Leith gleaned an unbeaten 129 in a knock that included 17 boundaries as Rupanyup-Minyip hit a winning 4-211 in a season starter against Horsham Saints at Rupanyup. His opening partner Jamie Byrne made 43 and Daniel Schaper a middle-order 18 before the home side then strangled the Saints out of the game. Horsham Saints mustered 9-167 in reply, first drop Jason Harris making 81 before being run out, and Ben Sawyer, 26, and Sebastian Dalgleish, 22, also contributing. Billy Foorde-Engelsman captured 3-21 for the winners and Blake Turner 2-17. The Blue Panthers were scheduled to play against Laharum this week but the Mountain Men have withdrawn their team from the competition because of a lack of players. Rupanyup-Minyip will instead play the Tigers at Rupanyup after officials quickly adjusted a season draw, which leaves a six-team competition and eliminates a weekly bye.

The Saints, meanwhile, front up against giant-killing West Wimmera, which stormed into its season with an upset victory over reigning minor premiers Homers. A strong start with the bat at Nhill’s Davis Park set up the West Wimmera victory, opener Mitch Dahlenburg top-scoring with 41, Nathan Alexander accumulating 30 and Austin Smith 28. Homers bowler Mohan Bandara kept scoring in relative check, capturing 3-36, but Trevor Polkinghorne chimed in with an unbeaten 30 down the order, allowing the home side to finish with 153. Homers found themselves on the back foot early in the chase, losing 2-15 before Chaminda Gamage, 22, Luke Deutscher, 27, and Craig Britten, 39, put their team in a come-back position. Led by Alexander, 4-4, and Josh Lees, West Wimmera’s bowling attack conspired to bowl its opponent out for 127. Homers have a tough rebounding assignment on Saturday, up against a Noradjuha-Toolondo team, which appeared especially potent with the ball in a win over Jung Tigers at Horsham City Oval. In an entertaining low-scoring match, the Bullants, with Tony Caccaviello extracting considerable movement from the wicket, had the

Tigers reeling at 6-34 and ultimately all out for 116. Veteran David Puls managed to throw a lifeline for his team with a lower-order 53, while Caccaviello finished with an impressive 5-11. But although Noradjuha-Toolondo clipped 50 runs for the first wicket and the Tigers gave away a procession of extras, heat came back into the contest on the back of line-and-length bowling from teenage medium-pacer Codi Kenny.

Grampians off to tense season start C

BY ONE SHORT

ommunity cricket is back, much to the joy of all lovers of the sport, with all Grampians grades starting at the weekend.

The only hitch was the withdrawal of Aradale club from the Grampians competition. The once powerhouse club, after frantically searching for a team, was forced to join many other clubs that have folded over the years. The first two rounds of the Henry Gunstone Cup have led to Buangor-Tatyoon and SwiftsGreat Western emerging as the most likely finalists. In round one, Youth Club, 2-59, easily accounted for Pomonal 53 all out, with Nic Baird the standout with 3-18 and 24 runs. In the other match at North Park, Buangor-Tatyoon, 4-105, defeated St Andrews 9-103. Prominent players were Buangor-Tatyoon’s Peter Latham and Tyler Cronin, who both scored 30s. No bowler took any more than two wickets.

Round two featured St Andrews bouncing back to defeat Youth Club in a tense match at North Park. Batting first, Youth Club posted a mediocre score of 7-84, with Cam Kimber the only notable contributor with 46 not out. In reply St Andrews got over the line with nine wickets down in the last over. Clinton Slorach, 4-15, nearly stole the match from the Saints, but Adam Haslett’s 28 proved to be the difference. In the final game, Pomonal revealed a batting weakness by being bowled out for 81 in just 18 overs – this was in reply to the Combine’s 3-159. Highlights of this match was Jamie Bach’s 4-18 with the ball and Matt Heffer’s 3-15. Evergreen Ricky Peters carried on from his grand-final triumph of last year to record 53 not out, the highest score of the day. He was supported by Tom Eckel, 43. This week, Henry Gunstone Cup action moves to Ararat. Round three features St Andrews against Swifts-Great Western at Alexandra Oval and

Buangor-Tatyoon versus Youth Club at Gordon Street. Pomonal has a bye. In round four, Buangor-Tatyoon meets Swifts-Great Western and St Andrews takes on Pomonal at Alexandra Oval. Youth Club has a bye. Wins to St Andrews and Youth Club are essential if they are to keep their finals chances alive, but this might be difficult to achieve because they are up against quality teams. This week: 12.15pm, St Andrews v Swifts-Great Western, Buangor-Tatyoon v Youth Club, Pomonal bye; 4pm, Buangor-Tatyoon v Swifts-Great Western, St Andrews v Pomonal, Youth Club, bye. Last week: Swifts-Great Western 3-159 (R. Peters 53no) d Pomonal 81 (A. Rasheed 31; J. Bach 4-18, M. Heffer 3-4), St Andrews 9-85 (A. Haslett 28; C. Slorach 4-15) d Youth Club 7-84 (C. Kimber 46no); Buangor-Tatyoon 4-105 (T. Cronin 37, P. Latham 32) d St Andrews 9-103 (P. Menzies 27no), Youth Club 2-59 d Pomona 53 (N. Baird 3-189).

The next challenge round at Warrnambool will be on November 28. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Tight contests aplenty BY SARAH MATTHEWS

alkee and Horsham Lawn will contest the match of the round as Central Wimmera Tennis Association pennant action resumes at the weekend.

Kalkee, second, and Lawn, third, are coming off convincing wins but should find this week’s battle a little tougher. The Kees made light work of Central Park in round five, triumphing 11-93 to 1-42. The Parkers’ lone win came courtesy of Byron Lang, who defeated Matt Beddison 8-5 in singles. Brendan Nitschke and Ross McIntyre almost stole the first set, however went down to Jeff and Jordan Friberg in a nail-biter, 7-8. Central Park played without a number-three lady, whose sets were forfeited. The team will hope to fare better on Saturday against St Michaels, however, the regular competition powerhouse will start favourite despite a loss to Drung South. The Saints took it up to the ladder leader, but the visitor kept its perfect record intact, winning by two sets, 7-82 to 5-75. The encounter was a close one, with three of four tiebreaks

ending in Drung South’s favour. Logan Casey was the only threeset winner, with Angela Nitschke achieving the same feat for St Michaels. Casey, at just 14 years of age, is enjoying a stellar season and would have relished claiming the scalp of experienced pennant campaigner Peter Hayes. The rubber went down to the wire, with Casey winning a tiebreak, 8-7. Casey and Dylan Emmerson got the side off to a great start early in the day with a win over the powerful combination of Hayes and Ian Nitschke.

Drung South will host Homers – searching for its second win of the season – this week. Horsham Lawn proved too strong for Homers last week, triumphing by six sets at home, 9-88 to 46-3. Connor Chivell and Jason Farlow got Homers off to a good start with a two-game win over Hayden Farlow and Graeme Wood, but Lawn went on to win the next six rubbers consecutively. Ebony Hobbs and Hallie Burgess provided some happy moments for Homers, while Cherie Wood was a standout for the winners.

Wood conceded just two games for the day, in a doubles win with Bridie Feehan. Team-mate Wayne Morrell also finished with three victories for the day. Number-one men Hayden Farlow and Connor Chivell enjoyed a great afternoon of competition, with one doubles win apiece before meeting in singles at the end of the day. Farlow won the showdown – just – 8-7. Ladder: Drung South 20 points, Kalkee 16, Horsham Lawn 12, St Michaels 8, Homers 4, Central Park 0.

Clear front-runner Stawell Toyota reinforced why it has been touted an early premiership favourite in the Stawell Tennis Club Friday Night Competition with a comfortable victory over a depleted Mitre 10 outfit. Last week’s exciting win was just a distant memory for Mitre 10, as it failed to fire a shot this week, no match for its more-fancied rival, Stawell Toyota, going down by 42 games in a lopsided affair. Mitre 10 entered the contest missing key personnel, and facing the competition’s barometer, the task was always going to be a difficult one. Despite brave performances from Mitre 10’s Jemima Harney and Holly Graveson, Stawell Toyota was just too strong right across the board. With diminutive skippers Blair Hart and Jade Cross leading from the front, and outstanding support by Phil Hutton, Lewis Reading, Tom Monument and Cass Coffey, a Stawell Toyota victory was never in doubt. The final score line of 16-150 to 8-108 means confidence is high in the Stawell Toyota camp, while Mitre 10 will be left to lick its wounds and look to rebound strongly against Carey Covers on Friday night. Carey Covers bounced back in sensational fashion to enjoy its first taste of victory last week, accounting for Stawell Goldmine 14-155 to 10-134. Hugh Carey, substitute Evert Grobbelaar, Emily Davis and three youngsters born towards the end of the noughties, Ash Hutton, Sophie Hutton and Larna Graveson, were all heavy contributors in Carey Covers’ win. Molly Orr and Ben Martin were the two standouts for Stawell Goldmine, battling gamely against the tide, while Joe Dunn took full advantage of a calf injury to his opponent to claim two of his three sets. Carey Covers now moves into clear second following the triumph, while Stawell Goldmine sits bottom of the ladder, yet to experience the sweet smell of success. Round-two ladder: Stawell Toyota 38 points, Carey Covers 28, Mitre 10 24, Stawell Goldmine 22. – Joel Freeland

SHOWCASE: Sheila Minchin-King, with Ceili at Horsham Equestrian Centre at Riverside, is excited to showcase Horsham and District Equestrian Sports Club during a Western Victorian Dressage Competition this month. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Dressage event in new arena Equestrian competitors from across the state will descend on Horsham’s state-of-the-art indoor arena for the Western Victorian Dressage Competition. Horsham and District Equestrian Sports Club will run the two-day Equestrian Australia event, on November 21 and 22, in conjunction with Western Victoria Dressage Club. Event secretary Lee-Anne Rigby said riders looked forward to competing at Riverside Recreation Reserve following the lifting of government-imposed COVID-19 restrictions. “We haven’t been able to compete since March,” she said. “The club is very excited to be able to bring such a large event to showcase our beautiful grounds at Riverside. “We can cater for about 120 competitors and we have people coming from Shepparton, Geelong, Mildura and near Melbourne.” Mrs Rigby said the competition would cater for a wide range of abilities, from grand prix down to novice riders. She said club leaders were also excited to make the most of a $250,000 upgrade to the indoor arena.

“This will be the second time we’ve been able to use it since we upgraded it last year,” she said. “The surface is now state of the art. The nearest facilities with similar surfaces would be Ballarat, Bendigo and Shepparton.” Mrs Rigby said the club was grateful for sponsorship from a variety of Horsham businesses along with grant money from Horsham Rural City Council. “Thanks to our sponsors and the many other volunteers who spent six weeks painting, repairing and restoring the indoor arena to become a state-of-the-art geotec surface,” she said. Mrs Rigby said she hoped COVID-19 restrictions would continue to ease in the next couple of weeks to allow more people to attend the dressage competition. “At the moment we can’t have spectators, but we still have a couple of COVID announcements to go before the event, so hopefully we will be able to by then,” she said. Entries for the event close on Tuesday next week and people can email hbh1@bigpond.com for an entry form. – Sarah Matthews
