INSIDE...

Let’s all say goodbye to lockdown!

Last Friday proved to be “freedom day” for Orange with the local cafes, parks, shops, and, especially, drop-in barbers, all doing brisk business as we all start to get back our lives from the latest lockdowns. Here’s hoping this is the last of these disruptive and anxious events we have to go through, as we (crossed fingers) put the coronavirus finally in our rearview mirror. With spring starting to really come-alive, hopefully, we can start to leave this sombre and subdued period of our lives behind us. This week’s “Orange City Life” features some great little reads that really highlight the indomitable local spirit that typifies the Colour City. This includes a quick photo gallery of our newly-bustling and buoyant mainstreet, a story about a local looking to push a pram all the way from Orange to Randwick in Sydney’s eastern suburbs for a good cause, and a “local” in north-west Queensland, looking to make our 150th Orange Show the best and brightest it has ever been!

We also this week feature a story from long-time “Orange City Life” publisher, Bob Holland on the potential that Mayoral candidate, Amanda Spalding sees in creation of a giant “Boomerang Park” kids playground for Orange. One more thing that we all have to remember, Daylight Saving, loved by some, loathed by many, starts again this Sunday, October 3, so remember… but we all know the drill, don’t we?

Glenn’s pram push to save local premi-babes

L

ocal mortgage broker Glenn Atkinson certainly understands, next summer he’s pushing his twin daughters’ pram all the way from here to Sydney to help save infant lives. Glenn wants to raise thousands for neonatal equipment for Orange following complications from his partner’s recent pregnancy. “My wife and I, Renee, we had identical twins in February this year, but they were born six weeks premature at the Royal Hospital for Women at Randwick,” he explained. “But at one point, we were looking at them being born at 25–26 weeks, which is very premature,” he added. Renee’s girls, Eleanor, and Zoe shared a reasonably-common medical condition caused by uneven access to their shared placenta, Glenn said. “In effect, my daughter Ellie only received 30 per cent of the nutrition and suffered from restrictive growth while Zoe had access to 70 percent of the nutrition. “They found-out we were having twins from eight weeks, and we had to be in Sydney every second week, and then they told us at 20-weeks, they may have to clamp Ellie’s chord to save Zoe,” he added. Doctors though were able to stabilise the two unborn babies who were safely delivered in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at the Royal. At just 34 weeks into term, they were small: Zoe arrived first, weighing 2.1 kilograms; Ellie – a little (big) sister– was born two minutes later weighing just 1.27 kilograms. In the following days Zoe and Ellie remained in humidicribs in the neonatal intensive care unit with these sealed cots providing a warm, cocoon-like environment for premature babies which protects them from infection and spares them from expending vital energy 4 SEPTEMBER 30 — OCTOBER 6, 2021

Every new parent knows the feeling, dead-beat after pushing around your bub’s pram all day long… “I can’t do a marathon, I’m short and stocky and not in very athletic shape, but I can walk… I’m alright at walking,” he said.

to keep warm. Sixteen days later the Atkinsons were flown to Orange so that the girls could continue their treatment in Orange Health Service’s special care unit.

In the weeks since launching a website promoting his walk more than $35,000 has been donated, including plenty from family and friends of the couple. But what’s really helping to bolster the tally are further substantial commitments from Orange’s businesses.

The twins remained in humidicribs there as their respiratory systems and general strength grew before their proud parents took them home for the first time. Glenn however wants to see a system where unborn babies in his daughters’ position can be delivered safely locally.

“I can’t thank our friends and family enough for getting the fundraising started so well. These are the people who know Renee and I and what our girls went through, and on that front alone their support means a lot to us,” he said.

“Our daughters were high-risk so they couldn’t be delivered at Orange Hospital, but I’d love to see a time where we could handle a lot more premi-babes from here,” he said. In January next year Glenn aims to push his daughters’ double-pram all the 270 kilometres from Orange to Randwick, starting and ending at the points on the map which have been truly vital to his young family. In doing this, he’s hoping to raise $65,000 for install life-saving neonatal equipment at Orange Health Service and the Royal Hospital for Women in Randwick. “It’s becoming bigger than Texas — I need all my traffic management plans in place, a support car has to drive behind me, and I have to email my exact time and route for each day,” he said. Knowing the arduous nature of such a journey in mid-January, he is getting in serious shape already. “Since I started in August, I’ve walked 205km, and I did the Dubbo halfmarathon virtually. “In October, I’m going to do the City-to-Surf distance, but around Orange. My birthday is in November, then I’m going to walk a marathon around Orange,” he explained. Still only 35, he plays squash and used to run-around the rugby field, but doesn’t fancy doing the distance at a jog.

...But to crack $65,000 I need more donations from businesses who want to help give something to the community...

“But to crack $65,000 I need more donations from businesses who want to help give something to the community which will save lives. That’s what I hope they’ll see this as because that’s what it is – an opportunity to save the lives of premature babies. The fundraising and walk — dubbed “Glenn’s Push from the Bush” — is being coordinated through the Running for Premature Babies Foundation, which was established in 2007 by Sophie Smith after she and her late husband lost their set of triplet sons following an extremely premature birth at 24 weeks. To donate to Glenn or to find out more information about his family’s story and walk head to: https://www. runningforprematurebabies.com/ fundraisers/glennatkinson/your-event. Business owners and managers interested in supporting can contact Glenn on 0422 307 605 or glennatkinson@pmwplus.com.au. So as soon as the Christmas/New Year pudding is all digested, Glenn is starting his trek to help other families in the future facing the same difficulties he and Renee have. “My plan is to start on the third of January,” Glenn concluded.

Can you remember a spring as sublime as this? The dams are full to overflowing, the grass is just starting to take off, the trees to bloom. We’re enjoying cool, chill nights and pleasant, sunny days without (so far) any of the brassy heat that can so quickly burn-off the moisture in our pastures and paddocks. Our primary producers are enjoying the mild and pleasant weather as well. Despite our COVID-19 lockdowns and related reductions in overseas trade, Australia is projected to benefit from a record $66 billion-plus in agricultural production for the year. Not bad for an industry facing a oncein-100-year pandemic! While we enjoy this golden run of serene, pristine weather though, it’s worth remembering Dorothea Mackellar’s famous description of a land “of droughts and flooding rains”. Many years ago – in a far less poetic but just as graphic way – the NSW Agriculture Department produced a poster showing the ebb and flow of droughts across NSW over a 20-year period. The map showed the red of droughts spreading out, and then retreating, across the State as the seasons good and bad interspersed. One notable feature of the map was that there were few months where at least part of the State wasn’t in the red tint of drought. Which is something for Orange Council to consider as it carries out upgrades to the city’s famous stormwater harvesting scheme. Because, as night follows day, Orange will again be experiencing a string of dry seasons that we (probably mistakenly) think of as drought. While we’re no longer in the old

situation where tap-water was literally just flushed down the drain via over-watered lawns, leaving the tap running as you washed the car, and hosing down the outside of houses and concrete paths each and every day, the Colour City still has substantial water needs. We all still need to shower, wash the clothes, water the garden, the car still needs to be cleaned (even if at a commercial carwash, it’s still water being used), plus the needs of industry. This, in a city going through a building boom and population explosion, as COVID lockdowns and technology makes regional city living increasingly attractive. Of course, there are as many proposed solutions to this dilemma as there are interested parties in our fair metropolis. But one of the easiest ways to store water, a lowtech solution that goes back to the dawn of human history, that is build a dam, seemingly has just too many environmental drawbacks to even be considered. Instead, Orange seems to be just keeping in front of the waterneed curve with a series of small enhancements. Such as, ensuring that Suma Park and our other water storage facilities are operating at the top of their capacity, expanding and refining our famous stormwater harvesting system, the pipeline from the Macquarie River, and the emergency pipeline from Lake Rowlands in Blayney Shire. While this multi-pronged approach has the benefit of not putting all our eggs in one basket, if it will be enough to keep us from the truly onerous water restrictions we almost experienced during the last drought, only the future knows.

volunteer awards clean-sweep Importance of a human life is central to all of us at this time.

A

nd it has been the driving passion since 1995 for Molong St Johns Ambulance first aid trainer, Julie Dean.

Molong Cadet Division of St Johns run by the local former school-teacher, recently scooped the pool at the NSW Volunteer of the Year Awards presented online. As well as Julie picking-up both Central West Senior Volunteer of the Year and Central West Volunteer of the Year, the Central West Junior Volunteer of the Year went to Jazmin Pietrzak from the Cadet Division with Central West Adult Volunteer of the Year going to colleague Jade Kirk. Jazmin, 15, joined Molong Cadet Division in 2018 with the award for the aspiring paramedic recognising her outstanding work within Molong and the Cabonne local government area. She recently travelled to Parkes with a small group of Cadets and demonstrated how to do CPR to local Meals on Wheels volunteers. Jade herself joined Molong Cadet Division in 2010 and organises the training program for the Molong cadets. The next nearest Cadet Division is in Broken Hill, which means Jade does not have other people to bounce ideas off.

Instead, she has used her computer skills to communicate with people around the State to find and develop the right training strategies and material for the Molong cadets. But for Julie, it’s the skills and confidence that the cadets learn that is her true reward, husband Les explained. “She’s been doing it for 25-years, I don’t know how many hundreds of kids have left Molong with a first aid in their resume,” Les said. “It helped them get early entry into Uni, and some have become paramedics, occupational therapists, firemen, nurses, those qualifications make so much difference. The skill in saving lives that Julie puts-out in the community, is very important,” he added. Julie started the local Cadet Division because she saw a special need in the rural setting of Molong for such a group. “I just thought that people who lived in this area needed life-saving skills. You’ve got Dad up the paddock working on the farm, people working outside with equipment and a long way from help, if anything happened,” she explained. What better way to learn such important skills, than when you are young and receptive, she said.

“They’re cadets until they’re 17, though then can go a bit longer if they want to, and then they join the senior St Johns service,” she explained.

“We usually have Thursday night training sessions, but, of course, this has all been on hold since COVID hit,” she added.

The Cadet Divisions, she said, aren’t quite as common because of perceptions that young people aren’t interested in volunteering.

During the recent Zoom presentation, local members Andrew Gee and Phil Donato congratulated Molong Cadet Division on “scooping the pool” of awards for the Central West. They acknowledged the volunteer work of the Cadets and officers in St John Ambulance Molong Cadet Division

“Most groups wouldn’t have teenagers volunteering, because they believe that teenagers just wouldn’t be bothered, but that’s not the case.” Julie herself has acquired credentials in 86 different courses and volunteered 6426 hours to St John Ambulance. While the recent Balloon Glow at Canowindra was their last major event where they provided first aid, the lockdowns have affected the local group like most other volunteer organisations. “We had a huge crowd there and we catered for their first-aid… but for most volunteer groups, I think their membership has been hit by COVID,” she said. This has proven doubly-so for St Johns Ambulance volunteers, with their distinct uniforms and first-aid stations often their best recruitment tool. “Normally, when we were doing duties at shows and other events, people come-up and have a chat and decide to join from there,” Julie explained.

Julie likes keeping busy and is also Secretary of GrowMolong, a community group which works on projects to improve Molong as a town and as a place to live. The NSW Volunteer of the Year Awards are run by The Centre for Volunteering to recognise the outstanding effort of volunteers working across all sections of communities throughout the State. The awards are supported by principal partners the NSW Department of Communities and Justice and ClubsNSW, which represents the State’s 1400 not-for-profit clubs. “I just have to say ‘thank-you’ it was very surprising. I actually didn’t know it was coming-up. I had put in nominations for the cadets, but I didn’t know mine was in it as well,” Julie concluded.

REBECCA AIMING FOR LONG-DISTANCE SUCCESS IN ORANGE’S 150TH SHOW Rebecca Blandford, working flat-out to achieve success for the 150th edition of the Orange Show, all the way from a cattle station in north-west Queensland!

— DAVID DIXON —

A

gricultural shows are a central part of the fabric of country communities, and Orange should have the best in the business, Rebecca Blandford believes.

She’s working flat-out to achieve that for the 150th edition of the local event in mid-May next year, all the way from a cattle station in north-west Queensland! One event that the newly-minted publicity officer wants to highlight, is increasing the number of local girls interested in nominating for the Miss Showgirl quest. A local girl herself who has travelled far, Rebecca’s love for this grand old rural institution remains true, even from nearly 2000km away. “I’m very passionate about the Show. We all have our passions, and I guess this is one of mine… I think it’s 100 per cent that it relies on the support from the community, because it is such a real communityfocussed event, that is put on for families,” she enthused. “Doesn’t matter where the show is, that’s what a show is about, highlighting that community and putting-on something for everyone,” she added. In the position only a few weeks, Rebecca has been bursting with ideas on how to make the Colour City’s sesquicentenary event something to remember.

“I was appointed at the AGM last month and I’ve been very busy, it seems like a long period of time,” she laughed. “But’s it’s not totally new to me, I’ve been involved with the Show for a few years, I was secretary at one

point, and I have a farming background,” she explained. For one so young, she has certainly thrown herself into life, promoting the local agricultural show while running (with her partner) the 120,000-acre Belford Station at Julia Creek near Cloncurry. “I’m an Orange girl, but I currently live in Queensland in the north-west on a cattle station, I originally moved up here when I was 17, moved back home, and am now back again,” the 22-year-old explained. “I normally drive, it’s two-days, about 23 hours to get back to Orange so, obviously the Show work is mostly online” she said. Even though she’s working-away in the tropical north on a property closer to Darwin than Sydney, she still however thinks of herself as a local girl. “Definitely, I went to Canobolas High, and I did public speaking there, and I worked at Furneys Stockfeeds after I left school,” she explained. She believes that the local show can and should rival other major agricultural fairs like the Bathurst Royal Show and the Dubbo Show, all it will take is commitment in the right quarters, she said. “Absolutely, the potential is so there, ideally, we’d be looking at having the support for the Show as events like Food and Wine Week, which are great for Orange. “We’re a beautiful region and it would be good to see that level of support,” she said. The Show is already heading in the right direction as far as facilities — once the Achilles Heel of the local event — are concerned. “We’ve finally got our new canteen and the

refurbishment of the Naylor Pavilion, of course,” she said. Rebecca’s love affair with agricultural shows go back to her childhood: “I imagine, I would have been about eight, with fond memories of each year going to Orange or Bathurst or even Cudal, one of the smallest shows, with my grandparents,” she said. Rebeca believes that the livestock pavilions are still the lifeblood of the local shows and would like to see cattle, sheep, and other farm animal numbers increase over time. “To do that, you’ve got to make sure the farmers and producers believe that it is worthwhile to make their stock ‘show ready’,” Rebecca said. The Show’s success, she added relies on a small and dedicated band of volunteers who put in uncounted hours to make sure the event goes ahead each year. “I’m also still on the Executive, so I’ve had a lot to do with the Show, we’re not a huge organising group, so it’s everyone hands on deck,” she said. “But next year will be our 150th year, a very special year, and we want to do our very best to make it a success,” she said. A young woman herself from a country background, Rebecca would love to see renewed interest in the traditional Showgirl section of the event. “In the last few years, we really haven’t had that much interest, but we’ve got the Zone Six finals on in February 2023, and it would be great to have our own local girl in that. I’m really keen to push Ms Showgirl,” Rebecca concluded, with typical determination.

Orange Regional Conservatorium talk about their exciting, five-year plan — SAMUEL RODWELL —

“It’s exciting times for the arts and cultural life in Orange” People come to Orange for our food and wine culture, which is certainly our biggest tourism offer. The Orange Regional Conservatorium have now announced their new five-year plan that will undoubtedly help grow our community’s tourism attraction through the arts while establishing Australia’s leading regional conservatorium in the process. For 30 years, the Orange Regional Conservatorium has been “a positive impact within our community” and integral to the cultural development through music education that the wellrespected conservatorium that we know and love is known for today. From their extensive programs, catering 1400 students, both junior, middle and senior ages, across individual tuition, ensembles, orchestras and contributing to community groups during their three decades. Now, with the new state-of-the-art, purpose-built facility on the way, Orange will be established as an national identity for leading regional-based community music education, performance and cultural entertainment engagement. “When the new building is finished, it will be the last piece of the puzzle within that precinct where you have the library, art gallery, theatre, museum, the planetarium and our conservatorium.

“I would love to see the arts alongside Orange’s food and wine culture and joining them together. Food, wine and the arts. This is such a huge tourism potential for the community to be tapping into for the near future,” says Director of the Orange Regional Conservatorium, Donna Riles. With more than 50 concerts being facilitated a year to over 12,000 audience members, the Conservation is expected to double those results across the next half-a-decade. “With the gifting of this beautiful new building by Orange City Council, we thank them so much for their vision, gracious support and seeing the value of the conservatorium for 30 years but also valuing the arts precinct we have here in Orange,” Donna said. The five-year plan aims to ensure with the new expansions that inclusion, such as supporting music in schools and early childhood settings to cultural enrichment are met. This expends onto innovation, quality & excellence, accountability & transparency, however, most importantly is working with the community that’s at the heart of the plan. “We want to work with all sorts of facets within the arts sector, to make sure the building is utilised to its full potential, that people are interacting, engaging and enjoying making art, creating music. It’s exciting times for the arts and cultural life in Orange,” Donna stated.

ORANGE EX-SERVICES’ CLUB IS EXCITED TO WELCOME BACK THEIR MEMBERS — SAMUEL RODWELL —

On Friday 24th September 2021 at 10am, Orange Ex-Services’ Club (OESC) reopened their doors and happily welcoming back their members. Whether it’s a cold schooner glass in hand from the bar, or their fantastic chef prepared meals from Diggers, to the beloved Coffee Shop offering your hot beverages and café food delights. The OESC dining experience is back for people to enjoy. “We are very pleased to see Orange Ex-Services’ Club reopen. Our Club is the heart of the Orange Community as it offers a COVID-SAFE environment for members & guests to catch up with family & friends,” says the OESC team. If you need more information about the Club’s return, the OESC team have kindly provided the following clarifications: So who can visit us? Orange Ex-Services’ Club members and visitors can enter any of our venues if they live in a regional

area not subject to stay-at-home restrictions. If you live in a regional or rural area that is not subject to stay-at-home restrictions, you are able to travel to other areas that are not under stay-athome restrictions. This means that members & guests that reside in surrounding LGAs out of lockdown may visit us. Do I need to be double vaccinated? The Orange Ex-Services’ Club continues to follow the advice of NSW Health. While we encourage the Orange community to get vaccinated, the NSW government has not mandated double vaccination to enter venues. If this comes into place, Orange Ex-Services’ Club will implement this mandate. Orange Ex-Services’ Club has also been actively supporting staff to get vaccinated and pleasing a large percentage of our team are on the way to double dose vaccination.

What COVID-19 restrictions are in place? The same COVID-19 restrictions that were in place prior to our lockdown will continue to be enforced. This means checking in and out with our reception staff, face masks when not eating and drinking, social distancing, and limited capacities will be in place. A person who has a medical exemption to wearing a mask must provide a certificate or other evidence signed by a registered health practitioner or NDIS provider or a statutory declaration. The entire OESC team appreciate your cooperation in continuing to keep our venues a COVID-SAFE space. All Club Activities will be postponed until further notice. These include Raffles, Bingo, and Cash Housie. The OESC team appreciate the patience of their members and understanding until we relaunch these member favourites.

Space, science and snorkelling is what it’s all about for first-year teacher

Miss Percival

— SAMUEL RODWELL —

C

uriosity can be the determining factor that leads ourselves on a path to creating an interest within something, such as art or sport, which in turn establishes our passions. For first-year teacher Jacinta Percival, her curiosity for space led to her interest within science, that would spark her passion for now teaching at Orange High School. “I love being able to fill the people around me with knowledge of something they might not particularly know and widening their understanding of the world,” Jacinta said. For instance, Jacinta’s favourite shark currently is the deep-sea Goblin Shark,

“Space was the first concept that pulled me into science, and then in high school my interest really began to go wild.”

living at depths from a 100 to 1000 metres underwater which she loves sharing this information to her students. “It definitely won’t win the Best Looking Shark award, seriously look up a photo of them online,” Jacinta insists, before continuing, “but the way it has adapted to live at such great depths is quite amazing.” Whilst completing her Bachelor of Science Education at the University of Wollongong, Jacinta specialised her tertiary education across Physics and Chemistry. “Space was the first concept that pulled me into science, and during high school my interest really began to go wild. I took physics and chemistry as subjects when I was in year 11 and 12, I was incredibly drawn to them.”

Jacinta begun cutting her teeth with teaching through Science Space, the scientific museum and planetarium in North Wollongong, where she would teach many guests about science. However, her knack for teaching began far sooner, as Jacinta explains, “From a young age I had always been drawn to teaching. My brother and I used to play schools when we were younger, and I always insisted on being the teacher.” Fast forward to present day, Jacinta not only teaches the overall subject of science but also marine studies for Stage 5 students. “It’s definitely not conventional subject you think would be taught within a town that no beach or significant rivers. It may have also led to me now owning

over 150 fish,” Jacinta happily adds. Before COVID impeded upon the movements of the nation, Jacinta was able to take her students down to Jervis Bay to complete their practical handson learning. “We like to take our Year 9 Marine Studies students on a Snorkelling excursion to Jervis Bay, and they take part in sea kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding as well. For our Year 10 students in Marine Studies they take part in a 4-day SCUBA course down there also, it’s a lot of fun,” she says. Jacinta concludes the interview by saying, “I love working with the Science staff at Orange High School. They’ve welcomed me with open arms and provided me with a lot of support as a first-year teacher.”

ORANGE OUT OF LOCKDOWN & ADF HAS RETURNED FOR SECOND DOSES At the time of writing, Orange is out of lockdown - and boy does it feel great! Thanks to every member of our community for doing the right thing to date: following restrictions, getting tested, wearing masks and rolling up our sleeves for vaccination. If we continue like we have, this COVID nightmare will soon be in the rear-view mirror! Our vaccination rates are some of the highest in the country, which is incredible, and in large part due to the hugely successful ADF vaccination clinic that was held in Orange recently. Having administered more than 4,000 initial doses of vaccine during the first clinic, the ADF have returned to Orange to administer second doses of Pfizer to those who need it from 27 September to 3 October. I popped down to the clinic earlier in the week (pictured) and was so impressed by the professionalism and dedication shown by our ADF personnel, our healthcare workers and the clinic volunteers. I thanked them again for their wonderful work.

Your Country Your Voice

A CLEANER FUTURE FOR THE COUNTRY As I have previously stated, I hope that we can all take an engaged approach to climate policy. I believe our communities want us to be positive and constructive in dealing with this issue and not just reactive. We owe it to future generations. Yes, we certainly need to make sure that country people aren’t dudded by city people and we won’t let that happen. The key though is to have the conversation and constructively work through these issues to find solutions that work for our communities and the environment. The nation faces major challenges and the decisions we make now will have a huge impact on the Australia we hand down to our children and grandchildren. I’m up for meeting those challenges and rest assured that I will always be there, and keep fighting for, the people of our electorate and region.

interesting as it evolves as an emerging industry with multiple benefits.

Blue carbon is the term for carbon captured by the world’s ocean and coastal ecosystems such as mangroves, tidal marshes and sea grass. These ecosystems can sequester two to four times more carbon than terrestrial forests on an area basis. Interestingly, for our region, it has been found that some of the seagrass being grown to capture carbon has also been found to reduce the methane output of livestock when fed in small doses as a dietary supplement. This is an Australian discovery that is going to be

CSU SET TO WELCOME INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS ONCE MORE International students make a vital contribution to our regional economies, workforces and the rich tapestry of regional academic life. I am very excited that a new pilot program will enable up to 500 international tertiary students to return to some Australian campuses - including CSU Orange - as early as December this year. The students will quarantine in a purpose-built facility in Sydney and, importantly, their travel will not affect our country’s set arrival cap, which means the students will not travel at the expense of

Australians wishing to come home. CSU is currently working within NSW Health Guidelines for the staggered return of local students to both campuses and the fact that a small group of fully vaccinated international students will also join them is very exciting news. In 2019, the education sector was worth more than $14 million but, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this sector has suffered greatly and as a result, our regional towns have been affected as well. A return to normal campus life will be beneficial to all!

LIFEandTIMES with ANGUS GIBB Bluey

wonder if I’m like Bandit. Am I excited by the crazy games that the kids come up with? Am I investing in these kids? Do I love like Bandit?

As a parent of small children my entertainment catalogue has been extended to include a whole variety of new (and annoying) TV shows. Whether it is the Octonauts, the gang at Kangaroo Beach, Rider and the Paw Patrol, or Norman Price from Pontypandy who seems to be the sole reason that a small Welsh village needs to have the most sophisticated fire and rescue station in the world.

As I try and imitate Bandit’s character, I find myself also reflecting on the love of God. That he, in a fuller, unfailing way, has shown his love for his children.

Without a doubt though, Bluey is one of the best kids’ TV shows that has been made for many years.

This is a love that gives up. This is a love that goes beyond anything that is portrayed in a kids’ show. This is a love that speaks to our deepest yearnings of acceptance and hope for the future.

This family of canines consisting of Mum, Dad, Bingo and Bluey are full of laughs and life lessons. One minute you will be in hysterics as you watch the chaos unfold that is almost too real (I often ponder that the writers must be parents of small children themselves) and the next, you will be moved to tears at a deeply poignant moment. One of the reasons I love this show is the way it portrays Dad. He’s a stay-at-home dad. He’s always there for his two kids and getting involved in their crazy games. He loves his wife. He’s such a positive role model for all the young dad’s out there who are watching this show with their kids.

I’ll miss the Premier. Out of respect we should be calling her Ms Berejiklian, but like Ita, I think even she is comfortable with ‘Gladys’ as a term of endearment, not disrespect.

Finally, beer o’clock. My body (not to mention my GP and the physio) will tell me that I’m NOT going to miss the “is it 4 o’clock yet?” statement, but hasn’t it been great? The booze shops are perhaps the only businesses who will have a downturn now that we’re out of lockdown.

So as I watch Bluey with my kids I see this love reflected in the way the stories play out. I see a father’s love that is committed to restoration of broken relationships. I see a love that is committed. I see a love that is sacrificial. Who would have thought that a kids’ TV show would have that sort of power to capture a heart and cause it to reflect on the big metaphysical questions of life.

As I reflect on my own parenting I often

“The power of the community” – Community investment in a clean energy future — Emily Yuan — Frequent reporting on climate change may seem overwhelming or even repetitive to some. Despite efforts to leave the car at home, run the dishwasher during when electricity prices are low, or install energy efficient LED light bulbs, we may not feel that there is much significance to our individual efforts. The transition towards renewable energy generation in Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM) is well underway. Advancements in renewable technologies have diversified the grid. On the large utility-scale, renewable energy investments have increased significantly due to government policy incentives and the lower cost of financing these projects. In today’s market, it is difficult for individuals to participate directly in the energy market. However, in the past decade, Australia has seen a massive uptake in small-scale renewable energy driven by households installing their own rooftop solar PV systems. This proves that there is collective power in the people which can be harnessed to drive real and meaningful change. Energy Democracy’s Central West NSW Co-

operative creates an ownership model for mum-anddad investors in the community to fund the Orange Community Renewable Energy Park (OCREP). Development of the OCREP involves a 5 MW utility-scale solar installation with 5MWh battery storage. Battery storage is the distinguishing feature of this project, which enables excess solar generation from the day to be stored. Stored energy can provide dispatchable energy that supports grid stability and reliability. This energy can also be sold when electricity prices are high in the energy market to deliver competitive financial returns. Members will benefit directly from at least 25 years of competitive financial returns, as long as the sun comes up. The OCREP will reach financial close on 31 October 2021, the final date for community investment. Construction is due to commence in early 2022 on the north-western outskirts of Orange. The Cooperative is focusing our efforts towards securing maximum possible community ownership. In order to achieve this, the Co-operative must raise $4.58M to pay for its stake.

The project will still go ahead if the Co-operative does not fully subscribe to its entitlement; Octopus Investment will increase its stake by underwriting unsubscribed shares. However, we hope the community will take full advantage of this limited window of opportunity to partake in Australia’s largest crowd funded solar PV project. Co-operatives are instrumental in re-energising resilient communities. They play a critical role in uniting strong and healthy communities; purchasing power is enhanced and diverse communities are connected to strengthen social networks and cohesion. Collectively, members look for ways to overcome barriers to participation. Anyone can be a member, be they a household, small business or an ethical investor for their selfmanaged super fund. Energy Democracy believes in the power of the people. The financial benefits of this ethical investment opportunity are clear. But most importantly, the community can drive real and meaningful change with a climate positive investment as our society transitions towards a clean energy future.

Please note: Anyone interested in investing in the project should seek independent financial advice before doing so.

Safety man Mike’s VITAL WORK ONLINE If we’ve learnt one thing these past 18-months, it is that necessity is the mother of invention.

through some hoops to make it work,” Michael said.

This has been especially so with our working lives with work from home, hotdesking, casual office arrangements, and online meetings, becoming commonplace.

“I was running one from Parkes, and we got two days into a five-day course for health and safety representatives, and we got shutdown, so now we are going to do that by Zoom,” he said.

Top local SafeworkNSW trainer, Michael Middleton, has now extended this new technology to his workplace health and safety courses.

“I’m going to do the last three days of that one, and I’ve got one scheduled for a government department for Dubbo and that’s going to be done by remote learning; we’ve got others at Broken Hill and Narrabri,” he added.

Using a top-level interactive videoconferencing system titled Realtime Remotely Controlled Learning (RTRCL), he has been able to continue his vital work during the COVID lockdowns.

Using software from Microsoft Teams, he said that the solution, while not ideal, is a way to ensure that local companies remain compliant with their health and safety training for staff.

“The point is, it is all because of COVID that we’ve had so many disruptions,” he explained. “With these courses, you’ve got people coming from all over NSW, some areas are locked down, others aren’t, with their travel status suddenly changing overnight,” he added.

“It’s not going to be as easy that’s for sure, while that’s going to be the skill of the trainer to keep them engaged, to get them in and keep them learning,” he said.

Because of the essential nature of his work though — the courses are an essential health and safety component of modern business practice — a solution needed to be found.

He added that protocols are being put in place to ensure that all learning activities are being carried-out in realtime by the participants. “If you think about these differences, they’re not insurmountable.

“SafeworkNSW provided us with a solution, though we have to jump

“We do have a limit of 10 in a class for RTRCL while face-to-face its 20 so it’s not exactly the same, but it’s better than not having the courses at all,” he said. Managing Director of Midd-West Risk Management, Michael has more than three-decades experience in workplace health and safety and is also a “Master Auditor” — one of the few in Australia — with a worldwide safety assessment organisation called Exemplar Global. Mike started his career in OHS back in 1987 when he was appointed Regional Manager for Lithgow/Dubbo/Young. “Interestingly, Orange City Council was the first organisation back in 1987 for which I conducted a full OHS audit, under the NSCA banner,” he said. Few people would know the importance of an auditor, so Mike runs us through the highs and lows of the job. “A well-conducted (grading) audit with recommendations, provides a sound platform for an organisation to build a systematic, compliant way of doing WHS, which in turn should allow Directors and Managers the chance to sleep more peacefully knowing that things are in place to minimise their WHS risk/s.

For more information, phone: 0418 435 250 or email: admin@middwest.net 16 SEPTEMBER 30 — OCTOBER 6, 2021

“The most challenging part would be getting a good handle on the particular type of industry, ensure an appropriate audit tool is available or in some cases, developed, and delivering a great report with recommendations for improvement. “On quite a few occasions I have had to review an organisation’s WHS Management Systems after a death or serious injury – then compile a report that will ‘stand up in Court’ and even appear in Court to be cross-examined as an expert-witness. For such, you have to be on your game and know your WHS ‘stuff’,” Mike said. His courses range from training for health and safety representatives, training for health and safety committees, and special one-day courses for committee chairpersons. The interruptions over the past 18-months, he says, are all part of the swings and roundabouts of a long and successful working life doing what he loves. “I’ve been doing this 34 years, during that time, I’ve put 21,000 people through my courses,” he said proudly.

WHERE TO GET YOUR

Hi Folks,

VACCINATIONS IN ORANGE

OUT OF LOCKDOWN Very good news with Orange now being out of lockdown. It means we’re free to travel between the LGAs again, which is a relief for many. Having Cabonne, Orange and Blayney treated as separate LGAs caused a number of issues for many people, since we’re a regional area with well spaced-out facilities and services. We’re nothing like the city, so an approach developed by those who live in the city and have no idea of how the regional areas operate was never going to work.

For the sake of local small businesses and for people’s mental health, I’m looking forward to our electorate reaching double dose vaccination rates of 70%. To schedule a vaccination, visit: https://www.health.gov.au/ initiatives-and-programs/covid-19-vaccines . You can also call 1800 020 080. Details will be provided for your nearest vaccination hub upon booking.

MENTAL HEALTH TOOLKIT If you haven’t already received your Mental Health Toolkit – a handy resource providing details about the national, statewide and local mental health services – it should be delivered to your mailbox in the coming week. So far our office has already received some very positive feedback from those who’ve received theirs, thank you!

VACCINATION UPDATE We’re doing well with our vaccination rates. As at 20 September, Orange had 90.1% having received the first dose and 51.7% fully vaccinated, while Cabonne was also doing well with 85% having received their first dose and 48.3% fully vaccinated. Amazing work!

A big congratulations to Julie Dean and the Molong St John Ambulance unit winning the 2021 Central West Volunteer of the Year. Julie has devoted decades to the St John Ambulance getting the Molong Unit up and running, and by mentoring, inspiring and teaching hundreds of cadets over the years. Well done to Julie and to all the volunteers, nearly 5 million in total across NSW, who play such an important role in our local communities.

Stay safe.

PRICELINE PHARMACY ORANGE CITY CENTRE Shop 2-4, 190 Anson St 6362 8444

The idea came about after Glenn’s twins girls were born premature and had a rough start to life. They are now six months old and are thankfully doing very well.

MCCARTHY’S PHARMACY 196 Lords Place - 6362 1009

This massive feat will be taking place in January 2022, but in the meantime, Glenn needs more support to reach he’s goal. He needs to raise $65,000 for a resuscitation cot for Orange Health Service and a humidity crib for the Royal Hospital for Women in Randwick.

— SAM RODWELL — “It’s the traffic that has picked up so much,” said one of the Tradies, as the stream of cars flowed noisily in the background signifying the end to our stay-at-home health orders. Many people are now getting out and about, enjoying their first chance to blow the froth off a cold one down at the pub and chowing into that awaited schnitty feed after weeks of derived opportunity. No doubt, by the end of last Friday when Orange City Life took these photos, many tradies were clocking off the job and trotting down to support their favourite watering hole or joining a few mates at home to celebrate another step forward towards freedom.

The Skipper’s Daughter Comes Home BY GREG MCFARLAND

This is always the skipper’s favourite moment – heading out of the port channel and entering open water, sunlight dancing on the blue ocean, a day’s fishing ahead. Pushing forward on the throttle to get the charter boat up to planing speed for the trip out to the reef. As they go further out, the seagulls fall back to the shore now distant behind; the birds replaced by the dolphins coming in to greet the boat, arcing cleanly through the waves, swinging alongside. The thrum of the powerful diesel motor provides a reassuring vibration through the metal deck under the skipper’s bare feet. Behind him, in the stern, a group of city businessmen are on their annual fishing trip. Eager to start dropping a line, they chat excitedly among themselves, spinning tall stories about the size and number of fish taken on previous outings. They dream of catching marlin today but the skipper knows it is far more likely that they will land snapper instead. But that is no bad thing. The skipper knows that this will be a good day on the sea and these customers will go home well satisfied. And this voyage is even more enjoyable because his daughter is home for an unexpected visit; the girl who virtually grew up on this boat until the split with the mother, who had moved far away from the coast afterwards. There had been phone calls and letters, and presents sent for Christmas and birthdays, but he has not set eyes on his daughter for a long time. But she is in front of him right now, up on the bow where he knows she is watching the dolphins as they swim effortlessly just ahead, even with the boat making thirty knots. Her hair being blown crazily around by the breeze coming fresh in her face as she grips the chrome railing to keep her balance. Three years away has been a fair time

20 SEPTEMBER 30 — OCTOBER 6, 2021

and she is no longer a tomboy but a grown teenager. The cheeky grin and freckles are the same but there is something else about her, a ripening, a young womanhood. Her new – something – is no mistake, he can see it from the sideways glances of the male anglers as his daughter moves around the vessel. And she is quieter than he remembers, much more serious somehow. No longer a chatterbox, there have only been short bits of conversation followed by long periods of silence since she returned. The skipper is not prepared for his girl to grow up, nowhere near ready, and so he looks desperately for familiar signs from childhood. She can still do the deck jobs as good as any man; that is obvious to him after they arrive at the reef and the fishing starts. He sees that she remembers how to set up the fishing rods for the customers, to sharpen the hooks on a whetstone, to prepare the bait. *** The girl looks at her father in those moments when she thinks he doesn’t notice. He is greyer than she expected, but still the same Dad essentially – tall and thin, tanned like leather and wrinkled from all the years in the sun. His image, to her, is entwined with this boat – he has been with it so long, she can’t visualise him doing something else, being something else. But the vessel, like him, is getting older. She can see spots where painting is needed, and metal things that the cancerous sea rust has taken hold of, and she wonders if he is not making enough money from the fishing to do repairs. And she will need money now, and she knows that even if she doesn’t know how much or what exactly she will have to do with it, and she thinks it is going to be a

hard thing for her father to deal with when she tells him. *** The skipper sees her looking at him and notices that her face has clouded over again. He wonders when – if – she will tell him what it is all about. If one had to guess, then it was easy enough to guess, as far as he is concerned. Her mother, always difficult and demanding. The girl, always strong willed, probably wanting more independence and freedom now that she is older. It occurs to him that maybe she wants to leave her mother, to live with him now, and the idea at once excites and terrifies him. He is about to finally ask her what is wrong, when just at that moment there is an excited shout from the back of the boat. From the bridge, father and daughter know it is a big strike, the angler’s rod bent double as he struggles with the weight of the fish he is fighting. And just like that, the old teamwork magic swings into action. The girl slips under the skipper’s arm and takes the wheel so that he is free to shinny down the gangway ladder and grab the gaff. As he leans over the side with the razorsharp hook, waiting to pull the fish in, his daughter pulls the throttle back to idle speed and rocks the steering wheel toand-fro, keeping the stern free of the tight angler’s line so it will not snag below the waterline and lose the valuable fish. The angler is puffing and sweaty-faced from the effort but he is gradually winning the battle and soon they can all see the prize rising reluctantly from the depths, a flash of writhing white in the blue ocean water. When it is finally alongside the boat and the skipper has hauled it on board, he can see it is a beauty: a mackerel, shimmering silver as it flops on the deck, at least fifteen kilograms.

Everyone cheers. It is an angler’s dream to catch, and the skipper knows it is a great win for the charter boat as well and will be good for business in the future. Once he has finishing taking photographs of the fish and its happy captor, he puts it in the icebox for the trip home. And then he looks to his girl up on the bridge and gives her a thumbs-up. She is as pleased as him, and he is warm with a feeling of good fortune, of everything being right with the world again. Whatever is bothering her can wait until later, he decides. *** They cruise to a different part of the reef to finish the fishing for the day. This part of the reef adjoins very deep water. Normally the sea over the reef here is smooth as glass, but sometimes a swell can come in without warning. As it does now. The air is perfectly still. The sea air is hot and humid. The fish seemed to have stopped biting. There is nothing else to do but wait, baited hooks dangling hopefully in the water below. The boat rising and falling on the swell. Rolling side to side. The skipper can see that his customers are getting queasy. Not his daughter though, the skipper thinks proudly to himself, never seasick once in her life. Until right now, while cutting bait at the stern, suddenly dropping the knife and vomiting over the side. And at that moment, the skipper somehow instinctively knows that his little girl is pregnant and life is going to change forever.

r u o o t p u s b m Thu ” y a d i r F m o d e e r F “

— DAVID DIXON — “Freedom Day” finally arrived for the Colour City last Friday after a near six-week lockdown that saw our CBD at times resemble a ghost town. Coffee shops, pubs and, especially, the humble barber, were all doing brisk business as locals started getting back into the swing of things. Hopefully, with vaccine rates continuing to rise, we can all start putting this pandemic – which has overshadowed our lives for nearly two years – in our rear-view mirror. Only fly in the ointment seems to be overly-restrictive requirements for hairdressers – many of whom say a five-cap limit may make their businesses unviable – and the announced restrictions for those not vaccinated which could see many people effectively banned from a number of shops in the city. So, let’s give a “thumbs up to freedom”, and may our next major coronavirus outbreak be another 100 years from now!

Listing shortage a nationwide issue In the market for a new home and having trouble finding listings that aren’t sold the moment you see them?

aren’t seeing the usual new properties coming to market. In fact, spring listings are down by a staggering 20-40 per cent,” Mr Kelly said.

Well, the problem is not just in the Colour City, with other regional centres including Bathurst, Dubbo and Wagga having the same experience.

“Having said that though, buyer demand is absolutely through the roof with most agents reporting that for every property they are selling, they probably could have sold it another five to ten times over.

In fact, the issue is being found nationwide, with continuing lockdowns creating havoc on Australia’s property market as listings continue to be delayed, the Real Estate Institute of Australia said recently. REIA President Adrian Kelly said that this spring doesn’t feel like a normal post-winter market. “Where we would usually see an influx of new properties coming to market, the opposite is happening. “Despite the low interest rate environment, we

“That is the silver lining... for those sellers that do go to market now they are achieving premium prices due to low levels of competitive properties and pent-up buyer demand. “There is a very large cohort of sellers who would normally go to market now, in particular retirees living in large family homes who wish to downsize, but instead are sitting tight either because they have to due to lockdowns or because they know it

will be difficult to buy something at the other end of the transaction, and even if they do find a suitable property, they will be under intense competition in order to secure it,” Mr Kelly said. “We are at a stalemate until we reach more vaccinations and a return to some sort of normality. Perhaps the usual spring selling season will be somewhat shelved, and we will look forward to a revitalised summer selling season. Either way, the demand for Australian property still remains very strong and sale prices are continuing to rise,” he said. Mr Kelly said that the REIA has urged the Federal Government to focus on a National Housing Plan to address issues such as housing affordability for first home buyers through addressing stamp duty costs. “Everybody needs somewhere to live, and you can’t live in a share portfolio,” Mr Kelly concluded.

Sand and soil, mix and mortars, all at Pigot’s need to pick the stuff up yourself, he added.

Locked down by our COVID-19 restrictions for travel, restaurants and luxury items, Colour City locals have been turning to bricks and mortar, gardens and outdoor features.

“If you haven’t got your own trailer, that’s no problem, rather than come up and get it, we deliver anywhere in Orange for a flat $10 fee, in fact that’s what most people prefer,” he added.

Pigot’s Midwestern Sand and Soil and Midwestern Mini-Mix Concrete couldn’t be busier.

The pandemic lockdowns, he said, had seen people taking a good, hard look at their houses and gardens, and deciding to invest some time and money close to home.

“I’m flat-out, we’ve been very, very busy, but not just the concreting, the sand and soil as well has been going great guns,” Frazer Pigot said.

“We’ve been pushing hard like crazy since both COVID and spring and, with most of our sands and soils from near Sydney, we offer a different variety of products,” Frazer said.

“So, we’ve now got a landscape side and a concrete side... we’re really starting to get into the gardening side with topsoils, composts and garden mixes, whatever you need for your place.

“People have just decided to do up their own places, everyone is into this do-it-yourself spirit, which is fine by us, we’re here to help.”

“It’s something that we have got into over the past two years and are really keen to promote now.”

Pigot’s Midwestern Sand and Soil and Concrete Mini-Mix are located at 34 Leewood Drive with their garden supply outlet on Lone Pine Avenue.

Products range from a variety of sands, beach, tillers, plasterers, brickies, and fine and coarse sands, as well as mulchers, topsoils, turf, garden mixes, blue metal, granite, road-base, river pebbles, and concrete sleepers and blocks.

Pigots Mid-Western Mini Mix supply a wide range of high-quality concrete mixes for concreting projects large or small.

Other garden products include playground mixes and bark blends, turf underlay and top-dresses, and concrete pavers. “We’ve got a whole yard of this stuff, we do much more than just concrete and we’re happy to help,” Frazer said. With three, four, and seven-tonne trucks, they can cover most contingencies for the home gardener or renovator, and you don’t

Delivering high-quality concrete to Orange and the Central West in small batches, they use conveniently sized trucks with the choice of 0.2m3 to 2.5m3 loads catering to any job requirement.

“Boomerang Park” is a great idea deserving of serious consideration — BOB HOLLAND — COMMENT It’s not the first time a super playground has been suggested for Orange but, with a local government election just around the corner, the time is cherry ripe to revisit this idea. Mayoral candidate Amanda Spalding is taking up that challenge by putting the idea on her policy agenda for her election bid, and it’s not as if she hasn’t had experience with such a project before! Amanda was involved in a similar development back in 2017 when working at Fairfield Council in Sydney’s south-west, with the result being the “Fairfield Adventure Park”; a now highly-prized and much-utilised facility in that heavilypopulated area of Sydney. The accompanying pictures show why the complex is so popular. One only has to look at the outstanding success that the Adventure Playground

at the Orange Botanical Garden has been to see how popular such facilities are. Playground equipment has come a long way since our Adventure Playground was built and, of course, Orange has grown considerably since then. So the time is now right for Orange to consider a second facility with updated attractions. The name “Boomerang Park”, Amanda said, is at this stage for discussion purposes only. The final name, she added, would be after community discussions. For now, she feels that the coming Council election is the perfect time to have the conversation and to gauge community reaction to a proposal she believes very strongly in. “We’re not just talking about a typical community playground here, we’re talking about a ‘Super Playground’; one that people would regularly travel miles and miles to visit,” she said enthusiastically. Just like they would for any popular tourist attraction, and that’s what Boomerang Park could be, the money spent by these visitors alone would be significant!” Amanda added.

“I understand this site would be more than big enough to accommodate a Super Playground, despite having to work around an easement and concerns about asbestos in some areas. “It would also be highly visible, easily accessible and, being located only a few minutes from the proposed service and food development at the Leeds Parade intersection, it would only add to the appeal of the location.” She believes that this proposal has more merit than a suggestion that it be used for an outdoor flora collection for the Colour City. “I know that it has also been suggested that this site could be used for another botanical garden but, for me, that would be a poor use of the space, especially since there are plans to improve the area around the present Botanic Gardens, which would appear to make more sense.”

Amanda is mindful of the way that the present Adventure Playground engaged the community and how so many people contributed to the project. She believes Boomerang Park has the potential to be a similar community project and, it is for this reason, that she is planning to discuss the proposal with local service clubs and other community groups to gauge interest. Amanda lists this as just one of three great community ideas that she’ll be pushing for if she’s successful at the December election. “There are three ideas that I’m aware of and believe would be excellent additions to the Orange landscape,” Amanda explained. “Boomerang Park is one; a rather unique sporting practice facility at Glenroi Oval is another; with a ‘Walk of Art’ around the main walkway at the present Botanic Garden, the third. “I look forward to ensuring each of these get serious consideration if I’m elected Mayor on December 4,” Amanda concluded.

open forum – It’s time to have your say

Better communications to create greater trust Why is it that so many people appear not to trust their local council? Truth be told, some people make an occupation of doubting everything their council does. Add to this that most media outlets seem to always want to present Council issues in their worst or most controversial light. Or they’re quick to give publicity to those who come out against an issue. What is the saying? “Don’t let the truth (or balance) get in the way of a good story (or controversy)?” Especially if it gets people talking! The big unknown for any council is that group we know as the “silent majority”. This group, as the name suggests, is the majority of people, and they’re also the group that tends to say nothing unless the issue really warrants it. This suggests that most people are probably happy with most of what Council does. But let’s, for a moment, consider that not to be the case, and that people generally are just not interested in council issues.

I also think all those press releases that attribute comments to the Mayor or the various councillors could also be done better. I can’t say for sure, but it looks to me like simply a case of the Council communications staff putting words in the councillors’ mouths. Having speech or press writers is nothing new, but I’d love them to look at putting out something that’s a bit more credible. If they’re not a councillor’s genuine words, how can we make accurate judgements about them? Also, over recent months, there have been many issues that have generated a lot of conflict within the community and, I personally think, had they been handled a bit differently, we wouldn’t have had the same level of anger displayed at meetings and the like. With better consultation procedures, we may have arrived at outcomes that satisfied more people that we have.

What would it take, here in Orange, for our Council to enjoy a much higher level of support and trust and interest in local matters?

Better communication, better consultation, and ultimately arriving at sound decisions that most can agree on, should be the new Council’s aim.

One way, I believe, is for Council to change and improve the way it communicates its messages.

Controversy is inevitable at times but, it doesn’t have to be the norm.

Council currently has at least four people who handle their communications and media releases. So, it’s well-resourced to produce and manage effective and accurate information and make sure that what they put out is not viewed as just more Council spin.

Let’s not blame hospitality trade for vaccine shut-outs Comments and concerns surrounding the complexities of policing people’s vaccination status before they enter a business premise has recently become a hot topic as we anticipate a relaxation of lockdown restrictions and health orders. It is not difficult to anticipate that hospitality frontline staff may bear the brunt of the heightened emotions arising from the widely-polarised views of guests to a venue. Hot on the heels of National Hospitality Day on September 18, it is a good time to talk about this industry sector with which I (obviously, given my background) have had an enduring “love affair”. It is no secret that the pandemic hit the hospitality industry like a hammer blow. Even before the chaos of COVID-19, it was a tough industry sector to work in, or as one of the actual providers of customer service would say, “It’s a tough gig.”

Twenty years ago, it was a $20-an-hour industry... it still is, but now largely without the compensation of penalty rates, with no career path or even job security, and is one of the most highly-casualised workforces in Australia, despite being a vital industry for Australia and, in particular, in regional communities.

Tourism and hospitality generate 2.6 per cent of Australia’s total GDP. As I have said on several occasions, these workers contribute in excess of $100 million to the Orange economy. These services are not provided by faceless hospitality avatars. They are predominantly young people from our community trying to make a living in a tough industry. They are the faces that front the industry, making many of life’s milestones memorable and adding to our everyday lives. Despite being a tough gig, they have demonstrated huge resilience, and a boundless generosity of spirit. So, a tip. However frustrated you feel about being let in or shut out of a venue on the basis of your vaccination status, be hospitable, not hostile. Hospitality is friendly, warm and generous; hostility means being not friendly, warm or generous. Extend gratitude, not attitude. If you feel strongly, vote with your feet, silently walk to the venue that aligns with your sentiments. Bon Appetit dining is back! I, for one, rejoice.

Current Orange City councillors, Council candidates, community representatives, and good-old “Joe Public” are all invited to use the Open Forum on anything they want to say, to get off their chest, or comment about, on how local government is or should be run in the Colour City. Just send us your letters, comments and views on any Council-related issue. Please keep contributions to about 250 words.

Footpath work a sign of upcoming Council vote As the Council elections draw near, the pace of central-area multi-million-dollar projects increases and is almost level with the large-scale footpath programs. We live in Prince Street – gazetted as such from the 1850s – which is adjacent to the new DPI building, and we’ve never had a sealed footpath. You can’t miss what you never had, yet we are surrounded by new concrete footpaths built substituting adequate bitumen paths that were dug out and replaced with the concrete. We’re happy with our 1860s version heritage, then? As the Council terms approach their end, the incumbents get out the slogans and promises from the previous elections, update the pamphlets, then seek maximum media. These infrastructure works are usually programmed for the year before the elections as part of the getting re-elected plans to just illustrate what effective councillors they are, trusting that the majority of residents don’t remember the previous three years or don’t care. The fact that many on Council have so much experience is proof their tactics work. Like, you actually can fool ‘all of the people some of the time’. Hopefully, this’ll be the last year. The advantages of more frequent elections are we would get the infrastructure programs every two years, and not four. The disadvantages are, we’d have to suffer the councillors’ frequent photo ops and articles. Time for an overhaul, the important project for Orange is to restructure our Council, from ‘pale, stale, and male’ to ‘colour, fresh and diversified’. This is the time to reflect on the history of our councillors, and the Council, consider the performance of both, think of our future, then utilise your vote and restructure them. The Orange Residents and Ratepayers Association candidates are worth a vote!

“Myopic concern for COVID” ignores finding right balance I watched an online TED talk on the weekend, about people who live healthily to over 100 years.

reception@oclife.com.au

Importance of volunteering for society and individuals Nearly 30 per cent of Australians aged over 15 volunteer at least annually. This proportion has been decreasing from 36 per cent a decade ago, but still represents millions of people. Volunteering benefits the commun ity but, I believe, greatly benefits the individual as well . Volu nteering allows for skill development, social interaction, and can be a lot of fun. My personal volunteering backgrou nd includes five years as a Scout Leader, three years on the Oran ge St Vinnies night van, and plenty of volunteer doctor work with a variety of spor ts teams and clubs that I had somehow become invo lved with. Now, as a quadriplegic, I’ve had to mod ify to do more computerbased volunteering such as fund -rais ing and grant applications for the local mountain bike club. This is relevant for Council, as more information could be made available through Council for potentia l volunteers in Orange. We have large numbers of people mov ing to this great city and others who hopefully will be coming out of lockdown soon and keen to try something new. With Council elec tions upcoming, I have been trying to contact various community and spor ting grou ps to hear what is important to them, and have found that there is no centralised list or up-todate contact details. The Council website has information on volunteering with one organisation only. There is a link to the library where one can search and find brief information on about a quar ter of the community groups that actually exis t. I suspect this could be easily improved . Information on the various community, spor ting and other grou ps in Orange should be on the Council website with regular checking to ensure contact details are up-to-date and new groups are adde d. It would be a good advertisement of the diversity of this town. There could be the added benefit of having regular contact between Council and groups whom I’m sure would have plenty of suggestions for Council!

(family or friends who will help if you get sick).

It discussed communities in Greece, Japan and Sardinia which have a well-above-average percentage of centenarians and the lifestyle aspects likely to contribute to healthy advanced ages.

Number one on the list was participation in more broad social interactions – lunches, playing bridge, attending Rotary-type groups, and even chatting to the postie or the people walking their dogs past your house.

These included incidental exercise (lots of stairs or hills to navigate), consumption of fresh seasonal food including, but not restricted to, plant-based foods, and strong social networks.

These are activities that are not encouraged or even permitted under the ongoing stay at home orders – it was observed that the Zoom or FaceTime equivalents were not as protective.

Further studies observed people in other parts of the world to see what factors were important in determining who, among a large cohort of later middle-aged people, were likely to still be alive several years later.

It makes me even more concerned about some of our older population. Our myopic concern for COVID-19 disregards the devastating impact this can have on people’s health, especially those who live alone, when they can’t interact socially with friends and families.

The top 10 factors included dietary and exercise elements, as well as the obvious ones of not smoking and moderating alcohol consumption.

We’re saving people from a virus, but denying them what is arguably the most protective thing we can give them.

However, there were some surprises. Number five was receiving an annual flu vaccination, and number two was the existence of a strong close support network

Like so many things, it’s all about finding the right balance.

Men’s Probus Club Notes Hey Fellows, the wicked, constricted days of Lockdown are over, at least for the present, and let’s hope permanently. Covid 19 has not gone away, and will be with us for the foreseeable future, so masks and social distancing will still be a part of our lives. That is no reason to carry on with this isolation thing. Get moving and get out and about, catch up with old mates, why not even meet some new ones; Probus is a great way to do just that. Probus meetings will resume (Covid fingers crossed) as usual on the first Wednesday of each month. That is the 6th of October, at ten a.m. at the Orange Services Memorial Club. There will be an interesting Guest Speaker, and plenty of fun and fellowship, and you may choose to stay on and take advantage of the Lunch Special at the Club. Activities and excursions have been on hold, but will be resumed as soon as practicable; you may have a good idea for entertainment, so let us all know at the general meeting; we’ll see if it can be arranged. The trip to the Royal Flying Doctor Base at Dubbo is still there to do, and will be an eye opener, and Railway will be there for trips to interesting places.

BIANCA JANE WILCOX BORN: 17/09/2021 WEIGHT: 2.91kg PARENTS: Kiara McManus and Blake Wilcox GRANDPARENTS: Sharon McManus, Jeffery McManus, Letitia Sandry, Robert Sandry, Renee Wilcox, John Williams, Daphne Williams, Brian Williams, Steve Wilcox, Tina Wilcox

There is a good article in the Probus Email monthly magazine about “cookies”, not the sort you eat, but the ones that are part and parcel of your computer. It seems there are good cookies and bad cookies, and you should keep up to date on Computer information, and how to get the best out of the “puter”. Copies of the magazine are available for those not yet using a computer. You’re never too old to learn – Probus may be able to help there. You may enjoy the words of Josh Groban; When I am down, and Oh my soul so weary, When troubles come and my heart burdened be. Then I am still, and wait here in the silence, Until you come and sit a while with me. You raise me up, so I can stand on Mountains, You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas, I am strong when I am on your shoulders, You raise me up to more than I can be. Probus is for fun, friendship and fellowship.

Happy 90th Birthday Dan Dougherty 8th September Dan celebrated a real milestone birthday this month turning 90 and has certainly seen a lot of changes over those years! At the time Dan was born in 1931 his family was living at a Horse Stud farm not far from Molong called ‘Boomie’. His family moved to Orange when he was around 3 years of age as his father Harry Dougherty obtained work as a Labourer with the Council as everyone was feeling the impact of the Great Depression. At the age of 15 he left school to help his father with his carrying business delivering fruit and vegetables from the Railway with a horse and lorry. He was also an original member of the CYMS Club and enjoyed some amateur boxing matches including one with Pat Ford. Dan has spent all of his life in Orange except in his younger years when he ventured to Queensland and worked as a Stockman on a large Sheep and Cattle station near St George. Later in life he was self-employed owning trucks contracting for hay and wood and also spent some time working at the Email factory. After retirement Dan enjoyed many fishing trips around the Darling River at Bourke as well as the North coast of NSW and travelling to various part of Australia.

OCLife TIME WARP

Suma Park Dam after heavy rain

As we make the most of Suma Park Dam and other district reservoirs currently being at capacity, we look back to August 1960, when the dam was still being built. This photo shows the dam after heavy rain temporarily halted work on the massive enterprise. Before the dam was built, Orange relied on Lake Canobolas (formerly known as Meadow Creek Dam) for its water supply. Orange also receives water from Spring Creek Reservoir.

Orange and District Historical Society holds a work day at Heritage Cottage (148 March Street) each Wednesday from 10.30am to 4pm (with a lunch break from 12-1.30pm). Members are available to answer enquiries at this time.

HistoryTALKING

with HELEN McANULTY

“All that glisters is not gold. To thine own self be true And it must follow as the night the day Thou canst not be false to any man.”

he told us. “My wife was surprised when we were invited to ‘bring a plate’ to a party. “Do you think they don’t have enough crockery?” she asked me.

William Shakespeare

Most of us are familiar with the beautiful words of the Bard in “The Merchant of Venice” but if we spoke in that way to our contemporaries they would no doubt be a little startled. Each generation has its own special way of speaking which defines it from the one before, but the technological evolution and the introduction of texting have made the language of the young people of today almost incomprehensible to their elders. The Oral History group acknowledged this when we remembered the things our grandparents said and which are no longer in use. Many were distinctly Australian but some had roots in the languages spoken by the early settlers and the indigenous people who were already here. Many of Grandma’s sayings seem to be directed at improving our behaviour, as Leslye pointed out. “Waste not, want not,” and, “Don’t cut off your nose to spite your face,” she would sometimes warn us. And watery ones like: “You’ll never miss the water till the well runs dry,” and, “Water finds its own level” which is a little mystifying, although possibly similar to “birds of a feather flock together”. Lynne’s mother was even more puzzling when she replied to her daughter’s query about what she was knitting: “A wigwam for a goose’s

t s u J

f or la ugh s!

John also liked the expression “He’s got Buckley’s”.

AUSTRALIAN SPEECH bridle,” she would say. She also added to the confusion by telling her that something lost “was up in Annie’s room behind the clock”. Political correctness was unheard of in those days and you had to put up with any amount of insulting language, as Pauline told us. “You are not the full quid,” and, “You’ve got a face like a chewed rissole,” would probably destroy any self-esteem you may have had. To be told “The lights are on but nobody’s home” could be very hurtful, but Tom could go even further by saying : “You’re as useful as a hip pocket in a singlet,” or worse, “as a glass door in a dunny.” Reg lifted our discussion to a higher level when he spoke enthusiastically of an attractive woman. “By Cripes, there a corker Sheila – she’s a bonzer one!” He also told of encouraging someone to hurry up. “Get a wriggle on, even worms dance quicker than that!

“If you hadn’t succeeded in getting the girl you wanted,” said Keith, “someone would comfort you by saying: ‘There’s better fish in the sea than has ever been pulled out of it.’” Rhyl pointed out that, as a Queenslander, she referred to “a port”, whereas in some other states it was called “a case”. We were reminded of the story of a journalist from Queensland who arrived in Adelaide only to find his luggage was missing.

There are conflicting theories about the origins of Buckley. One is that he was an escaped convict who lived with Aborigines for many years before finally being captured and incarcerated once more. The other explanation is that Buckley’s was a Department store in Melbourne and if you couldn’t find something there you wouldn’t find it anywhere. Marj reminded us of the growth of speech sanitisation which began, she said, in the 1990s. Governments started to focus on the words which were considered racist or insulting, and the word “political correctness” came into our language. “In the old days people who were intellectually handicapped were referred to as ‘imbeciles’ or ‘lunatics’,” she said.

“I have lost my port,” he told the man at the desk. “I must have it as it contains all my papers.”

We seem to have become more considerate with some of our terms and we realised, as always, that much has changed since our youth.

To his chagrin the attendant put a message on the loudspeaker. “I have a gentleman here who has lost his bottle of port which he needs to do his work.”

We have also become less colourful in our use of language and, because of the World Wide Web, much less isolated.

John is the token Englishman in our group. He arrived in Australia 50 years ago and feels that our language has changed in that time. “There was a welter of Australian expressions in those days which I found intriguing like ‘flat out like a lizard drinking’ and ‘she’ll be apples’,”

And of course the pandemic has brought us a whole new vocabulary. Words such as anti-vax, lockdown, booster shots, jabs, Freedom Day, contact tracing, LGA, Covid-free, delta variant, and many others. Whether that is a good or bad thing remains to be seen. Copyright Helen McAnulty 2021

THUMBS DOWN to developments that drain water onto adjoining properties thereby turning them into swamp land.

THUMBS UP and congratulations to Duntryleague Golf Club, winners and grinners of the central west Perfect Plate, 2021 state-wide competition. I am waiting for Gladys to allow me the time to spend my vouchers to eat at the Duntryleague Golf Club restaurant. I have been waiting months due to her lockdowns. Congratulations on your true grit and determination to stay in business during this pandemic, that we just had to have?

THUMBS UP to Trish at Spotlight who went above and beyond to supply me with the items to finish my craft during lockdown. Not everyone has a computer to order online. Thankyou so much for your kindness and it is a pity that a lot more people do not have the same attitude towards their job like you, Trish. Credit to you and Spotlight!

THUMBS UP to Bruce and McCarthy Chemists for their concern when my mum didn’t answer the door when making a delivery. They took their time and effort to ring around her daughters to make sure Mum was okay. Thankfully, Mum is fine. Their care and consideration were above and beyond.

THUMBS UP to Auspac Media for providing the puzzles in Orange City Life magazine, as acknowledged in the paper – making lockdown that little bit more bearable for us, the readers.

THUMBS DOWN to Orange City Council for saying the solar farm near Orange on the Molong Road was on the wrong site. Council did not say the sports precinct was on the wrong site, near Bloomfield, which, incidentally, it is. We need the two projects, but on the right sites!

THUMBS DOWN to the two males who were not wearing masks and spitting on the ground, not once, but many times, at the Summer Centre. THUMBS DOWN to Orange City Council for pushing ahead with Stage Two of the Stormwater Harvesting scheme without knowing what the effect will be on the platypus population and general ecology in Summer Hill Creek. With Suma Park Dam full and overflowing, surely there’s time to get a better understanding before even more water is taken from the environment? THUMBS UP to Glenn Stedman who reported and brought to the media’s attention the amount of heavy traffic recently on Edward Street. Thank-you for your time and effort. I hope the B-double two-storey sheep trucks also cease to use Edward Street. I was behind one when I came home from the hospital last Tuesday night at midnight. It travelled the whole length of Edward Street before it turned onto Bathurst Road. It’s no wonder my neighbour has trouble sleeping. I’m sure I can speak for all the residents of Edward Street, in thanking you and appreciating your efforts.

THUMBS DOWN to all those people who send in a “Thumbs Down” before reading how ridiculous it sounds.

THUMBS UP to Brea and Tim

THUMBS UP to Dr Jamal Rifi and his team from the Australian Story television series who have been instrumental in getting hundreds of people vaccinated in the CanterburyBankstown area of Sydney where residents were not receiving enough information regarding vaccinations previously.

THUMBS UP to Ebony at the Summer Centre IGA who is always cheerful and never overloads the bags. THUMBS UP to Councillor Stephen Nugent who has shown compassion by presenting a motion that supports the Afghan Community. We are recognised as a “Refugee Welcome Zone”.

Introducing TOPSY!

Sc an QR Co de

Hi! The names Topsy, the extremely handsome Silkie rooster! I am looking for my new home and I think I would quite like a flock of pretty hens to watch over. I think I would be a really good looking match for them, don’t you think? My new home will have to have big strong fences to keep me in and predators out. I can be a little wary of you at first, but given some time (and some yummy fruit and veggies) I’ll warm up to you! I really like my chook pellets & grain and also think that fresh grass & veggies are pretty nice. Of course I will also need access to plenty of fresh water. If I sound like the right guy for you why not pop in an application to meet me today? Adoption Application https://www.rspcansw.org.au/adoption-appointment-request/
