One of the perks of the job here at Orange City Life is getting to meet and talk with all sorts of interesting people. This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with author Stuart Lloyd, who recently made Orange his home. Stuart will be discussing his latest book A Bleeding Slaughterhouse at Orange Library next week. He is a great storyteller and has led an interesting life; his author talk should be worth catching. I also popped out to the Huntley Berry Farm, where OCTEC have enlisted the services of our new Deputy Mayor Gerald Power to build an Indigneous edible garden. Gerald is on a mission to get more Australians enjoying our native tucker and the garden should be a real drawcard for the berry farm.

David Dixon has continued his series of introductions for our new councillors, this week catching up with Cr David Mallard. He also sat down with Jacqueline Grant, a storyteller and local historian with a passion for uncovering the extraordinary tales to be found in seemingly ordinary lives.

Look who's starting kindy...

Good luck to all those involved in the Banjo Paterson Australian Poetry Festival, which gets underway on Saturday. It is a difficult time to be organising events in such an uncertain world and the committee have had to postpone some advertised events and make adjustments to their week-long program. Make sure to look for the updated program at the Orange360 website and book ahead to avoid missing out.

HOOK THROWS HAT INTO RING FOR SEAT OF CALARE

Graeme playing in memory of Sandra’s piper Dad, Ken Orange City Life staff working-back on Wednesdays often hear the beautiful and melancholy piping of the Canobolas Highland Pipe Band practising at Legacy House on the eastern side of Robertson Park. Sandra Woodward also recently caught the group’s dulcet strains and asked if one of the band members could pipe a few songs for her late father, Ken Woodward (pictured), who was a member of the Warwick Thistle Band in Queensland. “I went past the hall and heard them playing last night, practising, and asked if one of them would play for my father today,” Sandra explained. New band member Graeme Clarke obliged, putting on a memorable performance in Robertson Park for Sandra and various sundry passers-by with a number of pitch-perfect songs including that old favourite, “Amazing Grace”.

New Canobolas Highland Band member Graeme Clarke performed for Sandra Woodward in memory of her late father, Ken, recently in Robertson Park.

Local environmental activist Kate Hook has thrown her hat into the ring as a “truly-independent” candidate for Calare in the upcoming Federal election. With the slogan, “We can do better” Ms Hook is seeking to emulate the efforts of long-time independent, former Prime TV News Chief, Peter Andren, who held the seat for more than a decade until his death in 2007. Calare covers an area encompassing the Central Tablelands from Lithgow in the east, Oberon in the south, Eugowra in the west, and Gulgong in the north. The seat is currently held by Minister for Veterans' Affairs and Minister for Defence Personnel, Andrew Gee who has held the seat since 2016. He previously held the State seat of Orange from 2011–2016. Ms Hook leads local activist group, Futuring Orange and has been a high-profile campaigner in a number of local environmental campaigns, including efforts to have Orange Council consider alternative sites for the proposed sports precinct at south Orange. ‘’So often when you try to make positive change, politics and ‘party lines’ are the barrier," Ms Hook said before announcing her candidacy. "A community-based independent could change that and make politics work for people and communities. We now have that option for Calare in the coming Federal Election!” Ms Hook is based in Cudal and is part of the “Voices for Calare” grassroots movement which aims to make inroads in the power of the major political parties. Under the rules of the Australian Constitution regarding parliamentary terms, the election must be held by late May.

Big plans announced at Banjo’s memorial service Inaugural memorial service for locally-born “Bard of the Bush” AB “Banjo” Paterson saw announcement of major new plans for the site. The event held at the Banjo Paterson Park on the Ophir Road, was told that the site should become an important historical pilgrimage for local school groups to learn about one of our most beloved literary legends. The memorial service for the 81st anniversary of Paterson’s death in 1941 was led by Minister, the Reverend Mal Dunnett from Holy Trinity Church, with a barbecue to commemorate his birth also being held at the park on Thursday, February 17. Former Orange Mayor, Reg Kidd spoke at the memorial of future plans for the park to make it a centre of events surrounding Paterson’s legacy.

4 ORANGE CITY LIFE

President of the newly-formed “Friends of Banjo Paterson Park”, local historian Elizabeth Griffin also provided a potted biography of Paterson’s life with readings of some of his most popular poetry also held. With the Banjo Paterson Poetry Festival in Orange starting soon, she believes that the event was the perfect way to launch the annual literary celebration of the poet born at the property "Narrambla", near Orange in 1864. With a love of local history, Elizabeth said that the land for the park had been donated by later owners of the property, the Lane family in 1947 in an area close to what is now Clifton Grove. “It’s a wonderful history, but also neglected, it should be important for schoolchildren to know all this,” one participant at the event added.

Window taxes and the law of unintended consequences

My Ride - Allan Piper This is my 1971 Ford Capri GT automatic. I love the styling and it is also beautiful to drive — very nippy and a bit of a head-turner — because there are very few of them around. I also have a little ‘73 Ford “Escort” four-door sitting at home; that was the first one. I'm only the third-owner of this car and it was just a matter of “right place, right time”, as they say. The owner I bought it off had it for 24 years, but he had to sell it as he couldn't drive it anymore. He sat down beside me at a car meeting and asked me if I knew anyone who would buy it; a week later, I came back and said, “I'm interested”! I am a one-eyed Ford supporter, always have been but, as I'm getting older, I appreciate all old cars. It doesn't matter whether it's a Vauxhall; a GT Falcon; or an early Holden Commodore — anything like that. I just appreciate old cars and I appreciate talking to people about them. And I get a really big kick when people look at my car and say, “we used to have one of them, and we did this, and we did that…” That's a lot of what having old cars is all about; it brings back memories for people.

Australians visiting stately historic homes in Europe are often taken with how dark the rooms seem with generally few and small windows.

School model of traditional American companies and so moved west to what was then a semi-rural peach-growing area near San Francisco.

Most probably presume that this was to do with the relatively highcost of glass or for stylistic reasons, little realising that it actually is an early example of the law of unintended consequences.

Again, an example of unintended consequences. Film equipment inventors and old-style business managers driving the most creative emerging talent and new technology away.

“Window taxes” were an annual charge on property-owners depending on how much glass frontage their houses had. To avoid paying excessive tax, houses for two centuries were often built with unnaturally-few and small windows with many windows on existing homes eventually bricked-up.

Chatting with our shearer the other day as we worked through our small flock, the “Australian Wool Reserve Price Scheme” of the 1970s and 1980s came-up.

Another example. How did two of America’s most dynamic industries — movie-making and computers — both end-up at Hollywood and Silicon Valley on the west coast while the country’s major population centres are concentrated in the east and south? The reasons for this are both fascinating and informative. Early film producers were being persecuted by the manufacturers of the actual film equipment who viewed early movies as a breach of their copyright and subsequently hired gangs to attack movie-sets and cinemas screening “moving pictures”. To escape this persecution, the film industry simply moved to the most distant location they could find, California, to a small town called Los Angeles thereby putting them out of reach of harassment. Fifty years later, Silicon Valley was formed when microchip inventors like Robert Noyce, co-founder of the Intel Corporation, wanted to escape the rigid and stifling Harvard Business

This was an agrarian socialist program whereby the price of all wool in Australia was guaranteed as high as 830 cents per kilogram, regardless of quality or market value. Initially it worked a treat — graziers could produce as much wool as they wished and were guaranteed a topdollar return. By the time the scheme was precipitously-abandoned by a panicked Federal Government in 1991, Australia had warehouses’ full of unsalable wool equating to more than a full-year’s production with no buyers and taxpayers left to foot the bill. The wool price then collapsed for nearly a decade as the excess “stockpile” was slowly released onto the market — another example of a “perverse effect” whereby the policy ultimately had the opposite result to that intended. With schools now returning and twice-weekly RAT testing for all kids as well as compulsory masking of students, one wonders what the unintended consequences of our twoyear real-time experiment in controlling a pandemic, could eventually be?

SINGAPORE MASSACRE SUBJECT OF BEST-SELLING AUTHOR’S LATEST WORK Stuart Lloyd has taken on this task of chronicling the true story of the Alexandra Hospital massacre during World War II.

- JONATHAN ROE -

Some history, no matter how unpleasant, should still be remembered.

Author Stuart Lloyd has taken on this task, recently chronicling the true story of the Alexandra Hospital massacre. In his new book A Bleeding Slaughterhouse, the best-selling writer and now Orange resident, examines and dissects an horrific chapter of the Second World War.

A BLEEDING SLAUGHTERHOUSE THE OUTRAGEOUS TRUE THE ALEXANDRA HOSPITAL

hospital, and how this horrific episode still haunts us 80 years later,” said Stuart, who spent 10 years of pain-staking research to get a clear picture of events.

“It’s not a very clear-cut thing who is to blame… Everything leading up to it made that event happen; such a catastrophic set of circumstances,” said Stuart, who even traced the unit history of the Japanese soldier involved.

Using eyewitness accounts and interviews with Allied survivors and Japanese officers, A Bleeding Slaughterhouse pieces together what really happened in the largest military hospital outside of Britain on February 14-15, 1942.

“These poor bastards had been fighting since 1937 in China, because the commander of their division had literally fired the first shot in the Sino-Japanese War in 1937… And he was driven by this sort of grand dream of being this wonderful general and marching into Delhi on a white stallion.

“Only five out of 200 patients and medics are known to have survived the second massacre. And I’ve interviewed two survivors, tracked-down relatives, and found unpublished diaries and memoirs to give voice to what actually happened in the

“Then there was this desperate last-stand at the hospital… The admiralty had oil tanks stored there. It was the island's main magazine. It was the main garrison of troops. All in the area of the hospital, which makes no sense that you put a hospital in an area

“Some think it’s grim or sadistic, the whole thing about focusing on war, but it's all about people, it's about the human spirit… that's the thing that attracts me,” he said.

During the Battle of Singapore in 1942, Japanese troops stormed the Alexandra Hospital and left up to 300 doctors, orderlies, and patients dead — many bayoneted in their beds and some even on the operating table.

While as an author, Stuart finds himself drawn to military history, he said it is always the people involved rather than the action that holds his interest.

As always, the truth is more complicated than it first appears. Stuart describes the weekend massacre as “a perfect-storm event”.

with such strategic targets.”

“At the heart of it are great yarns. People expect it's all blood and guts and it's not; there's a lot of colonial eccentricity, a lot of high-living done before the war broke out, there's a lot of good times and incredibly colourful characters!” “There’s something for everyone in this: a construction corruption scandal, Asian colonial eccentricity, CIA conspiracy theories, mystery disappearances of witnesses and evidence, battlefield action aplenty. Juicy stuff — but all true!” Stuart Lloyd will be speaking about his latest book, A Bleeding Slaughterhouse, at the Orange City Library at 5.30pm Tuesday, February 15..

Stadium approval no guarantee of sports precinct, opponents With the much-anticipated decision on whether the proposed sports stadium at Bloomfield is going-ahead not yet announced at the time of publication, opponents of the proposal, say that approval may not be the last word on the project. Controversial plans for a rectangular sports stadium at south Orange were deferred last week by the Western Regional Planning Panel (WRPP) which oversights major developments west of the Blue Mountains to seek more information on Council’s submission. This followed addresses by a number of locals opposed to the stadium siting at Bloomfield and also by Thomas Kwok from NSW Health who submitted that the WRPP was “not in a position” to approve the development. ‘’NSW Health object to the development assessment on the legal validity our assessment report was submitted on time. Our objection provides details on critical heritage, traffic, planning, contamination, lighting and health issues,” he said. Following his address, the WRRP deferred their decision until Council could respond to these claims with more information also requested on the impact of the riparian zones of the work and the timing of Council earthworks. Medical staff from the nearby Bloomfield Health Precinct also expressed concerns regarding traffic and access in emergencies if the 8500-capacity stadium is built on the decommissioned Ex-Services Golf Club site. Long-time supporter of the project, Councillor Kevin Duffy spoke on its behalf in his capacity as a private citizen as did President of the Orange Cycle and Triathlon Club, Steve Martin.

The current Development Application from Orange Council is seeking approval for Stage 1 of the project, stated as: “Bulk earthworks, tree-clearing, building demolition, and Category 1 remediation”.Council is proposing two more stages, including construction of the athletics stadium and car-parking; and then construction of the main stadium and “residual works”. Nick King from local environmental group, ECCO said: “While Orange Council was very-supportive of the proposal, it’s worth noting that out of about 179 submissions, 93 per cent were opposed to the siting of the stadium in south Orange.” He said that the newly-elected Council would be well within its rights to revisit the issue and consider other venues for the stadium, including a greenfield’s site purchased by a previous Council for this very facility. “There have been calls for councillors in the new Council to revisit the issue,” he added. Newly-elected councillor Melanie McDonell also spoke against the proposal and could be one of the voices prepared to revisit the issue, he said. Others to oppose the siting of the stadium at what had been a regenerating natural area, included Cyril Smith from the Orange and Region Water Security Association, who said that: “there is not enough reliable, verifiable supportive information from the State Government – its agencies or Council to approve Council’s Concept Plan and associate works.”

“The crux of it is that Council still has a lot of misinformation that got sent into NSW Planning, and their responses to the people who commented on the DA, were never adequately-addressed,” he said. “There is a better solution waiting to be explored.”Another local who made a submission was Malcolm Stacey who said Council had not been open about the number of objections to the proposed siting of the stadium at Bloomfield. “There is no evidence in the Council Assessment Report that the Planning Panel has been informed of the extent of community objection to the removal of trees from the mature parkland area referred to in this DA.”He said also a Department of Planning, Industry, and Environment strategy entitled “Greener Public Spaces” should be considered in any decision.“At a time when we need to be preserving our green infrastructure it defies scientific logic to be destroying our mature Bloomfield parkland for sporting fields which, needed as they are, could be located in other areas without an existing tree canopy. “It is not too late to preserve and enhance the now remaining tree canopy within a redesigned and enhanced sporting precinct,” Mr Stacey said. Last-stage hopes to convince three of the new councillors to adopt a rescission motion however were dealt a blow when new Greens councillor David Mallard suggested that the horse may already have bolted on the stadium proposal.

WHAT'S HAPPENING AT CADIA

SPONSORED CONTENT

• The new SAG Mill motor operational

CADIA’S SAG MILL MOTORING ALONG WITH NEW UPGRADE Newcrest Mining’s Cadia Valley Operations (Cadia) has recently completed the replacement of its SemiAutogenous (SAG) Mill Motor – the first time a gearless mill motor and foundation of this size anywhere in the world has been completely removed, replaced and upgraded. The SAG Mill Motor Replacement project, which was more than five years in the making, was developed and executed by Cadia’s engineering and project teams, with the support of major contracting partners. At its peak, over 150 personnel were working on the project at any one time.

in 80-tonne blocks and re-cast in-situ,” Aaron said.

FAST FACTS:

“The project posed numerous technical challenges, which the team successfully worked through, with teamwork, patience and tenacity.

• The Semi-Autogenous (SAG) Mill is part of the ore treatment process at Cadia and is used to grind rock down into a coarse powder before it’s transported to the floatation circuit where gold and copper is separated from the powder

“I am particularly proud of the commitment to Newcrest’s values which were critical to the project’s success. The values of ‘working together’ and ‘caring about people’ were the most important, especially with the diversity of contractors and pressures that border closures imposed on many individuals.”

Cadia General Manager, Aaron Brannigan, said that now the project is complete, the additional power of the new motor, along with a secondary crusher currently under construction through the Cadia Expansion Project, will allow Concentrator 1 to increase its production by over 1Mtpa.

Originally commissioned in 1998, the original Cadia SAG Mill Motor was once the largest gearless motor drive in the world. In 2015, the mill had to be taken down to repair age-related damage to the motor windings. Over the next few years, more age-faults appeared, necessitating more frequent and longer downtime for maintenance and repairs.

“This project was unique in that it’s the first time that a gearless mill motor of this size anywhere in the world has been removed, replaced and upgraded to the extent that the concrete plinths it rests on had to be lifted away

“Newcrest purchased an upgraded spare motor in 2016 and held it in storage until last year when the project to replace the old motor was approved,” Aaron added.

• The project commenced on 5 July 2021 and was officially handed back to operations on 3 December 2021 • The upgraded Siemens Semi-Autogenous Mill Motor is now rated at 21.8MW • A major upgrade of the High Voltage transformers and 415V Motor Control Centre, PLC, e-house cooling, and fire suppression systems were also undertaken in conjunction with the motor changeout.

FEDERAL MEMBER FOR CALARE $750,000 FOR NEW CHANGEROOMS AT KING GEORGE OVAL Women’s sport is on the up and up, and is finally getting the recognition it rightfully deserves. It’s vital we invest in fit for purpose amenities that cater for the many girls and women who train and compete locally. That is why I am pleased that the Australian Government has contributed $750,000 as part of the Building Better Regions program for the construction of a new amenity block at Blayney’s King George Oval. It was great to see that construction has started and, for the first time in its history, this muchloved sports facility will soon feature a dedicated women’s changeroom! Congratulations to the Blayney Shire Council for securing the funding and the work completed on the project to date. The amenities will be a fantastic asset to an already wonderful community facility. Pictured at King George Oval L to R: Mayor of Blayney Shire Council Cr Scott Ferguson, Andrew Gee and Rebecca Ryan.

$6 MILLION IN FUNDING TO INVESTIGATE PIPELINE AND NEW DAM! Farmers and residents across the Central Tablelands could soon have better access to the water they need to support and grow their businesses. The Australian Government has announced multi-million dollar funding with the NSW Government ($6 million) to undertake a business case study into the construction of a 10 kilometre pipeline between Lake Rowlands and Carcoar Dam, as well as the option of raising the existing Lake Rowlands Dam. For the first time, the study will also look at the construction of a new dam downstream. Capable of holding 1.5 times the capacity of Suma Park, this is a bright hope for a new dam project in our area. Water security is crucial for the region’s future growth and economic prosperity. That is why I’ve been pushing for this pipeline and upgrade for a long time. I have hosted Central Tablelands Water at Parliament House in Canberra to clearly present the business case for the project. We’re doing the groundwork now to ensure our farmers and communities can access the water they need, when they need it most. For more information, visit www.nationalwatergrid.gov.au Left: General Manager of Central Tablelands Water Gavin Rhodes, Andrew Gee, and Chairman of Central Tablelands Water Cr David Somervaille.

JOBS BOOM! The unemployment rate sits at 4.2% - the lowest since 2018! 1.7 million more Australians are in work, including an additional 1 million women.

I had the opportunity to mentor Claire throughout 2020 as part of the TEN4TEN program run by RDA Central West. Having completed her HSC, Claire aims to study science and sustainability.

The passion and dedication of the incredible volunteers who run the Museum is evident in each and every display across the site. That’s why I’m thrilled the Millthorpe and District Historical Society has received a $4,498 Volunteer Grant.

Are you a school leaver like Claire, and thinking about continuing your studies away from home? I am pleased to let you know that there are many ways we’re helping country students reach for the stars!

LIFELINE CENTRAL WEST GETS A WELL-DESERVED $15,000 BOOST! Volunteering at Lifeline Central West is an extraordinary display of community service. That is why I am pleased that the Australian Government has provided Lifeline Central West with $15,000 in funding so its volunteers can more easily handle the demands of the role.

Additionally, the phone rooms in Orange and Bathurst now have new headsets and office equipment thanks to a $5,000 Volunteer Grant. This funding will also help to cover the cost of volunteer crisis supporter training.

Reading from birth, means reading for life! Reading aloud to your child from birth is not only the best way to prepare them for their school career, but it can build confidence, empathy, and a lifelong love of books.

“You can also look at it from a personal development view,” said Fiona, explaining that books introduce children to experiences and situations outside their own daily life.

Few know this better than local library assistant Fiona Hawke, known to a whole generation of kids as the “Storytime Lady”.

It can even be something as simple as finding-out that not everyone has muesli for breakfast, she said.

“The kids, they call me the ‘Storytime Lady’, so that's kind of the name I've adopted here at Orange Library,” Fiona — who has been conducting the library’s regular morning story sessions since 2007 — explained. “I've seen a few kids go through,” she added. “In fact, I remember a girl who came here in the very first year that I was reading, and she has just finished her Year 12! That's a wonderful milestone to tick-off and, that I've had a part in her development, is really gratifying.” Storytime and the library’s other early literacy activities — Ten Minutes a Day, a program for babies 0-18 months, and 1,2 Books, for 1-2 year olds — are about exposing children to books from a young age and also encouraging parents and carers to make reading aloud part of the daily routine. There is a wealth of evidence showing children who are read aloud to on a regular basis are more prepared for learning to read when they start school.

“So they can compare and contrast their experiences and then they see people in a situation, they identify with that, they have empathy, and that increases their experience of how to deal with these situations and how to deal with emotions that they might have in themselves.” So what should we be reading to our children? “Anything and everything!” exclaimed Fiona. “Just reading, hearing language and picking out new words, whether it is a recipe or newspaper, street signs, something online!” With the school term now underway, Orange City Library’s free family literacy programs for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and their parents and carers, are back. For more information on the library’s activities for children, visit the events page at: www.cwl.nsw.gov.au or call 6393 8132.

NEWSbriefs First Indigenous councillor, Gerald, now deputy mayor Orange’s first Indigenous council member, recently-elected Councillor Gerald Power, is now also our first Indigenous deputy mayor. Last week Cr Power was elected by the Council to serve as deputy mayor from a field of four other candidates: Crs Tony Mileto, Jeff Whitton, Kevin Duff y, and Stephen Peterson. In the final round of four secret ballots, Cr Power and Cr Mileto tied the vote with six apiece with the decision finally determined following the randomdrawing of his name from the ballot box. “I was shocked as the votes kept happening and I didn’t get knocked out,” Cr Power said later. “I’ve told the Mayor, I’m there to support him 110 per cent and to be a sounding-board when he needs it for the betterment of Orange.” Orange Mayor, Cr Jason Hamling congratulated Cr Power on his historic election. “I’m pleased that so many councillors were willing to put their hand up to be involved as deputy mayor,” Cr Hamling said. “Gerald has a huge amount of experience across the community and I’m looking forward to working with him,” he added.

AMENDED PROGRAM FOR BANJO FESTIVAL UNDERWAY THIS WEEK Orange’s Banjo Paterson Australian Poetry Festival gets underway this weekend with a full, but slightlyaltered, program of events for the week.

event, and the Friday night food and wine markets at Robertson Park have been replaced with an outdoor movie screening.

Now in its ninth year, the annual celebration of Australian bush poetry has grown to become a genuine drawcard for poetry-lovers and literary buffs from across the country. The festival however will have a more local focus this year, with the ever-changing situation around the pandemic forcing organisers to be light on their feet.

But the big loss to the festival is the postponement of the National Bush Poetry Performance Championships. The Australian Bush Poets Association championship attracts the best bush poets from all over Australia, but fans will have to wait another year to witness the return of this highlyentertaining competition.

“There's been a few cancellations to what you see in the printed program, unfortunately,” Organising Committee Chair and Rotary Club of Orange member, Len Banks explained.

The good news is that the ever-popular Wrath of Grapes and Poetry Brawl at Molong are still goingahead and new events have also been added to the program.

The challenges around interstate border restrictions, plus a general reluctance to travel at all in the current climate, has meant the committee have had to postpone or reconfigure a number of events on the schedule.

The Rotary Club of Orange will now hold their “Brekky and Poetry on the Pavers” from Monday right through to Thursday. All are welcome to drop by for a barbecue breakfast and entertainment, or give a recital yourself!

“This year, it will be largely a local festival, because people are worried about COVID and travelling interstate… not so much because they think Orange is any worse than anywhere else, but just worried about getting sick away from home, which is understandable,” Len said.

And on Saturday evening, February 19, Strawhouse Wines is hosting a musical celebration of “The Banjo” at their new tasting room and deck.

For starters, the afternoon entertainment planned at Millthorpe’s Rosebank Guest House and the historic Boree Nyrang Homestead on Saturday have been cancelled, as have the poetry performances and workshops at local schools. The Blackened Billy Verse Writing Competition Presentation at Duntryleague will now be a Zoom

“So it will be a more local event,” Len said, adding that bookings really are essential. “I'd encourage people to go to the Orange 360 website and book those, because the venues aren't large and, with COVID distancing, they have limited numbers.” The Banjo Paterson Australian Poetry Festival takes place from Saturday February12 until Sunday, February 20.

COUNCIL AT WORK COVID DELAYS Staff shortages due to the COVID pandemic are affecting Orange City Council’s weekly bin collections. Council’s waste contractor JR Richards is experiencing labour shortages as a result of the pandemic.

BIN BUSTER CHALLENGE

Orange City Council is looking for 15 households to join the ‘Bin Buster Challenge’ to reduce their waste, safely dispose of hazardous waste items and eliminate contamination in kerbside bins. Across the eight-week challenge beginning in March, 15 households will be provided with free resources and tools to assist in waste reduction and resource recovery. The households will be encouraged to challenge themselves to avoid single-use items, maximise the use of their recycling and food and garden waste bins and specialised waste services, and reduce the amount of waste entering the red lid general waste bin.

To cope with the staff shortages, JR Richards is bringing in staff from other wings of its business as well as from labour hire companies. JR Richards Chief Operating Officer – Domestic Matt Hogan said there will be some delays to usual services. “With new staff taking on unfamiliar weekly bin collection routes, it’s expected it will take longer for the routine bin collections to

happen,” he said.

Local residents can nominate their household by visiting https://www.surveymonkey. com/r/3FRNJKR to register interest. Registrations close Monday 21 February 2022.

“JR Richards is doing its best to make sure any delays are kept to an absolute minimum.” “JR Richards will be keeping the Council up to date as changes happen and asks that residents monitor Council’s Facebook page for any service announcements.”

ARTWORK

Work is under way on the latest of Orange City Council’s FutureCity Public Art projects. Sydney-based artist Liz Shreeve is creating a mural on the wall of the Woolworths supermarket building in Anson Street. Titled Interrupted Spectrum, the mural seems to change colour as someone walks along Anson Street. It’s the second mural to be added in Anson Street following the work by Sydney-based artist Floria Tosca on the wall of 213 Anson Street, near the Uniting Church park. Local painter Jacob Bing from Murray‘s Paints adds the final touches to Orange’s newest mural on the wall of the Woolworths supermarket in Anson Street with artist Liz Shreeve.

the worth of many services that we simply take for granted,” Cr Hamling said

If your bin has been missed, please leave it on the kerbside. The collection might not happen until later in the evening. Yellow recycling bin collections may extend through to the weekend.

The three-year FutureCity Public Art project aims to develop a diverse collection of murals and art installations on buildings in the inner city, designed to encourage foot traffic in the city centre as part of

“The Orange community has done well dealing with these wider impacts and I’m sure they’ll continue to be patient as we work through it together when it comes to how we deal with waste. Your bins will be picked up, but in some cases will take longer than usual.”

Councils’ FutureCity plan to revitalise the CBD. This public art project is funded by the NSW Government Infrastructure Grants Program and by Orange City Council under the Future City initiative. Orange Mayor Jason Hamling has welcomed the latest mural. “There was a real buzz of reaction when the first of the murals appeared,” Cr Jason Hamling said. “It’s great that the CBD upgrade can be about so much more than better roads and footpaths in the centre of Orange, as important as that is.” “If we really want to revitalise the CBD and make it more pedestrian–friendly we’ve got to make it look attractive. We need places that catch your eye and make you want to walk down a street you may never been before. That’s what public art can do.”

PaulTIERNEY COLONEL MUSTARD It’s nice that there’s been some lighthearted moments this week. If only the rest of the week could be as fun and positive as the time I have on Thursday nights at trivia. Sure, we have our fair share of podium finishes, which sees our table win a bottle of plonk, a stubby holder and a couple of drink or meal vouchers, but that’s not what it’s about. We have our own little trophy on the table that gets handed around each week when somebody does something either worthy of merit, or worthy of laughter. No naming names here, but when asked by our host to spell “avocado” our writer didn’t put it down quite correctly, even though it was written on the menu sitting in the middle of our table – a trophyworthy effort. I managed to luck the trophy last week, after knowing who has the most Instagram followers on our planet. The rest of our table were either stumped or opted for a Jenner or a Kardashian, but I was adamant that it was the famous footballer Ronaldo. I was pretty firm on it – and then the “would you do a nudie run on the back of it if you’re wrong?” question came up. Hmmm – I was pretty sure, so I said “yep”. The rest is history – I’m not convinced the rest of my table will now do a nudie run because I was right, but anyway. Just FYI, Christiano Ronaldo has 317 million followers, ahead of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and then all the female pop stars, the Jenner/Kardashians, Virat Kohli and the like. The only “real” thing worth following on the list was the National Geographic account – coming in 12th rank with about 173 million followers. I’ve never really been a Malcolm Turnbull fan, but last week he managed to steal the show from all

the current so-called showmen, during what was supposed to be a serious interview. He was asked if he knew who was the other ‘texter’ involved in the Sco-Mo/ Gladys/Liberal “psycho” saga. He said “I will name the culprit … it was Colonel Mustard in the library with a smartphone”. Mr Turnbull, well played. Who knew you were such a wag? Thanks for making light of something totally ridiculous. Highlight of the last week for me involved a combination of sport and general interest. Our newest Australian of the Year, Dylan Alcott (just saying… I picked him as Aussie of the Year back in my column published on September 23rd, call me “Nostra”) played the semi-final of the Australian Open tennis, won it, jumped on a plane, accepted his award and made a brilliant speech, then hopped back on a plane to play in the final the next day. We know it didn’t go as planned in terms of winning the thing, but then in his after-match interviews he put it all in perspective. He sat there, happily answering all manner of questions from journos while sipping from his plastic see-through water bottle. Except, his water bottle appeared to have something amber-coloured in it. Amber, and a bit frothy. Go Dylan! Not only are you a fine ambassador for our nation and all who live in it, but unlike others it’s not all about you. Thanks. Good work everyone, I think I almost forgot about COVID, elections, burnt-out cars, potholes and RAT tests for a couple of days. I guess we will crash back to earth as the light-heartedness gives way again to the yucky stuff, but it was good while it lasted. I hope one member of our trivia team does something very silly on Thursday night, then we can start the weekend early on a non-serious high.

The goodenough parent with Emily Thompson Starting a parenting column in the first week of a new school year is simultaneously brilliant and absurd. There’s a great deal of hilarious source material, but finding time to write as we settle into a new routine generally ends with frustration (mine), a tantrum (also mine) and someone hiding under the table writing in a My Little Pony notebook while eating the forgotten packet of Skittles that fell on the floor two days ago (still me). So what will you read in this column? I started writing after a battle with postnatal depression, when I became overwhelmed with the social media highlight reel that’s hard to live up to. Coming out the other side, I swore I’d tell the truth and laugh instead of crying. So, there will be no stories of perfection, no Insta-worthy photos of clean children in a display home, I will only ever use the word “organised” for satirical purposes and I promise you will always feel better about your parenting after reading this. My husband, myself and our daughters Miss 13 and Miss 7 are messy, funny, happy and so very real. For example, while jumping up and down instead of putting her shoes on this morning, Miss 7 announced that she’s “pretty close to flying” and had planned to spend her day at school honing that skill. “I wonder what I can jump off?” she replied, when I asked what she was looking forward to today. Last year included an emergency dentist trip after she tried to make a parachute out of paper, jumped off a chair and landed face-first on the floor (luckily only losing a

baby tooth). She also broke her arm twice in six weeks after falling over at school, then running into a door the same week she got the first cast off. I’m pleased to announce, it's 1pm and the school hasn’t called yet, although she is keen to go and visit her friends in the fracture clinic. Despite worrying about her “flying” today, we are all so very glad to be back at school and work today. This pandemic has provided us with some amazing family bonding time, but honestly, by the end of 2021, we were all bored, stir-crazy, and a teensy bit sick of each other. The truth is that I ran out of ideas. Miss 7 has asthma, so we did safer things until she could get vaccinated, and it meant the girls ended-up in their “get-along shirt” more than once. Like when their Barbie game fell apart when Miss 7 sentenced her sister’s Barbie to hard-time in our mobile phone jail. And last week’s Lego session had a tragic end when Lego pop-star Livi somehow ended up wrapped in chains, underwater! It was a dark, dark day for Heartlake City Community Swimming Pool, and a clear sign our kids needed to leave the house and have some time apart. So this term, we are happily re-entering the world, enjoying time at school and work, and looking forward to rediscovering Orange and having some fun, family adventures together. Stay tuned because, although I have fun plans, I’m already predicting the wheels falling off and it should be hilarious. Fingers crossed for no broken bones!

LIFEandTIMES with ANGUS GIBB Weddings: This week, I am officiating a wedding for some friends of mine. It will be the third or fourth attempt at conducting the ceremony. Sadly, due to COVID, the couple has had to postpone, cancel bookings, and reorganise when to hold the ceremony and reception at least three times over the past six months. All going well, by this coming weekend they will be husband and wife. It has been a beautiful journey to walk with them as we have navigated the ups and downs, the excitement and bitter disappointment as infection rates, border closures and capacity limits wreaked havoc on their plans. The excitement surrounding this

weekend is palpable. We are nearly there. We have all our back-up plans in place. I have even been able to arrange a “super-sub” in case I test positive over the next couple of days. The only thing that can stop this wedding now, is if the bride or groom come down sick with COVID. I am certainly hoping and praying that this will not be the case! I love a good wedding. It Is such a joy to see a couple united together in marriage. As a pastor, I get the best seat in the house as I stand at the end of the aisle with the groom and his groomsmen. I love the moment when the bride and groom’s eyes meet. It is such a precious moment in time. But it is just a moment. As I speak with couples preparing for

FEBRUARY 10-16, 2022

marriage, I always remind them that no matter how great this day is, with all its exciting celebrations, it is the marriage that is most important. The wedding is only the start. It is the beginning of a journey. The beginning of a life-long partnership that sees them continuing to move towards each other in love. Forsaking all others. Sacrificing for the sake of the other. The Bible uses marriage to describe the relationship between Jesus and his people, the church. In Ephesians 5:25 it says this: “Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.” That is saying that the love of God shown in Jesus for all those who trust in him, is reflected in our relationships.

The sacrificial, undying, compassionate, exclusive love that we find in that marriage relationship, is a bit like the love that Jesus has for his people; the people that he died for so that they could have life by trusting in him. And all our love — all that we do to and for one another in love — is but a shadow of the true, deep and lasting love found in Jesus. So, as I think about weddings and of the hope, expectation, joy, dreams and future that the married couple long for, I cannot stop thinking about how all that we do is but a reflection of the greatest love story ever known. This is why I love weddings. It really is a privilege to be able to share those moments with couples as they come together in marriage.

MR PERFECT

On Sunday we had our first barbie for 2022, and the weather was fabulous. Running these barbeques is a way I can help promote, improve and maintain mental health of men in our community. It was great to see a good turnout with some familiar faces, and some new ones, too. If you haven’t yet come along to a Mr Perfect free bbq event, I invite you to come along.

Donato’s Diary I’ve been out in Orange and surrounding communities quite a bit over the past couple of weeks to share good news with local organisations who’ll be receiving some welcome financial support following successful grants applications.

It was great to catch up with Craig Harvey, President Orange District Basketball Association, to announce a $5,000 Local Sports Grant for woman’s basketball equipment and uniforms.

The next free bbq will be at Cook Park, near entrance at Hill and Kite Street intersection, on Sunday 6th March from 11.30am until 2pm. Hope to see all you blokes there!

he remembers the very moment that this incredibly rich strand of personal memoir first presented itself. “It was the time of my father’s funeral; and I went back home, and I was sitting with my mother and her sisters and cousins; I was there, and they started to talk about the early days as single girls, and I thought, ‘these are amazing stories’,” Jacqueline

recalls.

Jacqueline’s love of family history unearths truths around our lives

“That was a definitive moment when I realised what amazing lives these people have lived,” she added. Growing up in Wagga Wagga, she was originally encouraged to study pharmacy to continue the family business (her father owned one of the southern city’s longest-established pharmacies), before gravitating towards her first love, literature. “I trained as a high-school teacher — after three years of pharmacy at the University of Sydney — doing a double major in English, and taught at James Sheahan for a number of years.” But it was as she approached retirement that Jacqueline started getting involved in the family history that has seen her publish nine separate titles. Completing a postgraduate degree in local and applied history, Jacqueline got to it; chronicling the events and memories that simply don’t get recorded in school textbooks, but which tell the tale of how a nation was formed. From a largely Irish background with a family name McDonough, she said the work has proven an infinite delight tracing the “rogues,

who served in the RAAF for 30 years from 1955. After service in Australia then Malaysia as part of the RAAF requested by Thailand and then in Borneo with the 77th Squadron, he began his service in Vietnam in 1967.

She said that her love of family history, like many Australians, has only grown over the years.

“He later joined the Vietnam Veterans Association, and it was this group that in 1986 decided to stage a belated Welcome Home Parade for Vietnam Veterans because the

“I think it’s partly an age thing, how many of our younger people are really interested in that sort of thing? But as you get older, it seems more important,” she explained.

Vietnam War was the only war where our returned servicemen hadn’t been welcomed home,” she said.

“Ultimately, it is about identity that was the most important thing to me, I believe that very strongly,” she added. Other works in her catalogue include four social treatises including the self-explanatory “300 faces of Orange” as well as seven other biographies through her “People, Places, Publications,” website. “I think probably I’m a storyteller, I love getting the story together and getting it published,” she said. “One of the stories that I did was on a trip to Sydney where I ended up at Whale Beach. I was invited to write the history of ‘Jonah’s’ (restaurant and hotel); it was a terrific experience.” A recent Orange City Life article on the sometimesshameful treatment handed-out by sections of the Australian community to Vietnam veterans recalled the experience of one of her cousins, Brian ‘Blackie’ Blackwood

“Brian Blackwood played a central part in the Australian ‘Welcome Home Parade’; although I didn’t know any of this until much later,” Jacqueline said. She says that, what started as a bit of a hobby, has now taken much more of her life than she at first realised. “I enjoy it, not as a vocation, but as a sideline that has ended up taking much more of my time,” she said. Jacqueline has expanded her digital interests to include her own videos on her YouTube channel popular for their themes of family history, nature, and travel. The one truth that all this history has taught her, she believes, is that the more things change, the more they stay the same. “It becomes so much clearer the older I get — there’s nothing new under the sun, despite what technology tells us,” Jacqueline concluded.

There’s gold in them thar hills! Orange tourism businesses win big at State awards

Gold for local tourism operators! Byng Street Hotel owner Kristen Nock; Heifer Station Cellar Door and Operations Manager James Thomas; Byng Street Hotel owner Thomas Nock; and Heifer Station owners Michelle and Phillip Stivens.

range tourism shone bright at the NSW Tourism Awards last Thursday night with popular local winery, Heifer Station and the 4.5 star-rated boutique Byng Street Hotel both claiming Gold in their relevant

categories.

Heifer Station hosted the scaled-down presentation night with a small number of attendees, while more than 1000-people also tuned in to a livestream of the COVID-safe event. “The NSW Tourism Awards are a celebration of the outstanding resilience and innovative spirit demonstrated by our magnificent industry over the past two years,” NSW Tourism Industry Council Executive Manager, Greg Binskin said. “It’s been an extremely-challenging period for the NSW visitor economy and, after a break in 2020, the return of the NSW Tourism Awards demonstrates the renewed energy of the visitor economy and celebrates the people, places, and the vibrant culture of our feel-

good State”. After two tough years, the team at Heifer were elated to claim Gold in the highly-competitive Tourism, Wineries, and Distilleries category. Owner Michelle Stivens took to social media to thank all their customers for their support through the “darkest days of the pandemic”. Byng Street Boutique Hotel owners, Thomas and Kristen Nock were also thrilled with their win in the 4-4.5 Star Accommodation category — an amazing achievement given that the hotel opened just months prior to the outbreak of the pandemic. Destination marketing body Orange360, also claimed bronze in the Marketing and Campaigns category, while Nicole Farrell’s Country Food Trails tour business was awarded Highly Commended in the New Tourism Business Category. Heifer Station Wines, Byng Street Hotel, and other winners, will represent NSW at the Qantas Australian Tourism Awards to be held on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, on Friday, March 18.

Affordable housing levy innovative way to improve access — Mallard Affordable housing options for Orange’s overheated rental and sales sector is one innovative area that the new Orange City Council should invest in, new councillor David Mallard believes.

“I think there’s a number of things we can do; better housing affordability, people being priced-out of the market,” he said.

and Federal responsibilities, he says that there is much that local councils can do to alleviate this problem under new rules developed by the NSW Government.

With Orange sharing the growing pains of many regional centres as COVID-19 hit city dwellers escape the rat race in increasing numbers, he said: “we need to be able to cope with more people coming here, and also protect the environment”.

“The State Government has given councils the mechanism to develop an ‘affordable housing contribution scheme’.

Little-used State Government policies allowing councils to either levy land developers to fund affordable housing or require them to set-aside a proportion of their lots for low-income families, is an initiative that the Colour City should lookat, the first-time Greens councillor added. “People buying and renting need to be provided with affordable housing… we’ve got considerable inequality in earnings, in the community, in sectors like hospitality.” Despite suggestions that macroeconomic reforms of this kind are State

How it works is, under any new development, developers will have to make a contribution in either land or lots, or a financial contribution to the Council scheme to develop affordable housing. The policy is titled ‘SEPP 70’ and was enacted by the State Government in 2019, he added, though the scheme has only so-far been utilised and developed by a few Sydney councils. (SEPPs or State Environmental Planning Policies are designed to set the rules that control what developments can occur on land.) However — with Orange suffering severe shortages of low-cost housing for purchase or rental with the increasing investment in bricks-and-mortar — now is

New councillor David Mallard

the time to bite the bullet, he believes. “Council is currently developing their local housing strategy, so we should be looking at implementing this as part of it,” Cr Mallard said. “I think we’ve got to have change; people are moving here in increasing numbers and we have to have both the right vision and to be able to protect the environment as well,” he said. His election as head and sole elected councillor on the Greens Party ticket continues almost two-decades of representation for the party on Orange Council. “We received about 9.2 per cent of the vote, and we were very happy with the result. We had a diverse group running and we improved our vote from 2017,” Cr Mallard said. “I’m just proud that we’ve been able to continue the representation of Greens councillors at Orange for the last 17 years. “It’s very important for the community,

it means the community has a representative there with the Greens’ values… not only environmental sensitivities, but social justice and grassroots democratic participation,” Cr Mallard added. Water supply, currently an issue seemingly in abeyance after two good years with overflowing dams and green pastures, is likely to again become a limiting factor on growth, he believes. “We’ve been very innovative on how we manage our water supply, now we need to be better at how we manage demand,” he said. With a new-look Council, new mayor, and deputy mayor, and plenty of fresh faces, he says that this current Chamber has a real chance to make a positive impact on the civic life of the “Little Apple” (as Orange was once described in a short-lived promotional campaign). “I think there’s a great opportunity here; a diverse Council and a fresh way of looking at things,” Cr Mallard enthused.

OCLife the significance of local Wiradjuri culture. “We wanted to acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which the farm exists and operates, and the garden was a great way to do that,” Stephen said. While allowing you to come and “pick-your-own” native produce is some time away, Stephen said the real value of the garden is in educating visitors about these plants and how they have been used. “And then, maybe, go away and plant some in their own backyards,” he added. The Marang Indigenous Edible Garden was created in consultation with Gerald Power, founder of Indigenous Cultural Adventures and recently-elected Deputy Mayor of Orange and who is also a passionate exponent of First Nations food. Walk into your local supermarket, he says, and you will be lucky to find any native food other than the macadamia nut. But by educating people and showcasing First Nations food in gardens like this, he hopes that will change. “What we see here is actually the First Nations food of Australia. So people can actually come here and try this — and it’s something that they would have walked over, seen it, but never knew was edible — and how we've used it for 50,000 years!” Gerald said. “They can come and pick the varieties around the farm, but then come and get educated in relation

to this and probably find a plant that's in their own garden and start utilising it.” Not only is so much of our native produce good for you, but it’s delicious, he said. “This bush mint is really high in Vitamin C... it has a spearmint taste with a peppermint at the back of it. Dry that one up with the curry myrtle and make it like a pepper. With a bit of salt, you put it over a scotch fillet, T-bone, or a nice bit of rump, and it'll take it to the next level!” he enthused.

Festival of Small Halls back on at Bloomfield Hall on Sunday, February 27 will feature Karen Lee Andrews.

“Festival of Small Halls” back in late February It’s a unique musical event that could only be staged in the bush; and it’s back on in late February. JAM Orange are hosting their next “Festival of Small Halls” at Bloomfield Hall on Sunday, February 27; and everyone is invited to a real hoe-down of original live music! These special concerts take advantage of the amazing intimate atmosphere of our quaint small halls to provide unforgettable memories for both performers and audience. Always popular with Central West music-lovers, the next concert features Byron Bay music virtuoso and one-man band, Juzzie Smith; East Coast blues/soul singer guitarist, Karen Lee Andrews; and Orange's own roots trio, The Boneyard Tango. These are great fun events, with the variety of musical styles on show designed to thrill local audiences and visitors alike. The north coast’s own Juzzie Smith has been described as a: “ridiculously-talented one-man band.” “He is a true musical virtuoso with a style that is bluesy/ folk mixed into a groove of its own. Juzzie has the amazing ability to play up to six instruments at once combining the guitar, harmonica and juggling percussion at the same time using all his body,” a spokesperson for JAM enthused. “It seems Juzzie is at home holding anything that makes a

sound, and he combines this with a real rhythmic talent and a raw, warm vocal style. “The result is truly engaging, mesmerizing music that makes you want to move and leaves you feeling inspired. “Juzzie has had the honour of performing to both international and national crowds from Byron Bay Blues Festival to Edinburgh Fringe Festival, sharing his raw warm vocals with a simple message of loving life. “With four album releases to date, over 200 million views on social media and topping the blues iTunes charts around the world, Juzzie Smith is an act you won’t want to miss, ”the spokesperson added. Karen Lee Andrews, meanwhile, is described as being: “in possession of a unique sense of artistic purpose.” “Her song-craft is built on a thorough knowledge of blues, gospel, and soul music and motored by an undeniable hunger to connect,” the Jam spokesperson said. “Until the standstill of 2020, Karen was one of the country’s hardest-working live performers. Karen and her band spent nearly every weekend travelling the east coast of Australia, appearing at Woodford Folk Festival, Queenscliff Music Festival and Bello Winter Music and supporting icons such

as Jimmy Barnes and Gregory Porter. “Karen’s guitar playing explains why she has secured an endorsement from famed luthiers (string-instrument makers), Eastman Guitars, who also supply guitars for members of The Kinks, Sonic Youth and Wilco. For Karen Lee Andrews, the blues has come to feel like home,” the spokesperson added. “The Boneyard Tango” are a three-piece band based in Orange featuring vocals, guitar and double bass. Their repertoire revolves around a dark country or southern gothic americana sound, drawing influences from bluegrass, rockabilly and blues with a punk folk attitude. “Whilst the songs they play tell stories of criminal behaviour, drinkin’ whiskey, killin’ folks, going to hell, deals with the devil, lost love and betrayal, heartache and misery, the musical sound is dynamic, lively, and irrepressible,” a JAM spokesperson said. “Your feet will be tapping, and you’ll have a spontaneous desire to move to the rhythm of this rootsy, high-energy band,” the spokesperson added. The concert starts at 7pm with tickets only $30 and food and refreshments available. They are available at Landers Music, Orange and online at: www.festivalofsmallhalls.com.

City Colts 113 lost to Cavaliers 8/230

Bonnor Cup Once again, there was a dramatic weather change in Orange. This past weekend's cooler and windier conditions would have slightly modified the approach in most cricket games.

CYMS suffered their seventh loss of the season in Round 10. The Orange side fell victims to Bathurst City at Riawena Oval. Despite showing some positive signs at times, CYMS still lost by 28 runs in the end.

On Friday evening, the final game of Pool A in the Bonnor Cup between Kinross and Bathurst City Colts took place at Wade Park. Kinross went into the game with a glimmer of hope in snatching second place and qualifying for the semis. But standing in their way, was a Bathurst City Colts’ side with nothing to lose.

CYMS 197 lost to Bathurst City 8/225 Western’s brave performance in the NSW Country Championships Last Weekend, Western Cricket Zone played in the McDonald's NSW Country Championships Southern Pool at Shoalhaven. The Western Zone side boasts star cricketers from Orange and other Central West towns. Western’s Pool contained Greater Illawarra, Riverina and ACT Southern Districts.

Despite being a game of fine margins, the Bathurst visitors were able to clinch the victory by seven wickets. With all six rounds finalised in Pool A, St Pat’s Old Boys and Orange City secured the top two places and semi-final positions.

Western took on Greater Illawarra at Bernie Reagan Sports Ground on Friday in Round One. It was a valiant effort from Western, but Greater Illawarra edged the victory by four wickets. Greater Illawarra 6/127 beat Western 10/126.

Bathurst City Colts 3/95 defeated Kinross 9/92

1st Grade (BOIDC) Cricket As the race for the finals heats up in the BOIDC competition, Round 10 offered plenty of tension and excitement. Orange currently has two teams in the top-five, with Cavaliers leading the way and Orange City occupying fourth spot.

On Saturday, Western bounced back with an impressive victory over Riverina in Round Two at Sanctuary Point Oval. Some exceptional bowling and fielding helped Western win by nine wickets, earning them a bonus point. Riverina 10/96 lost to Western 1/99.

Orange City put on a batting spectacle at Wade Park in their match against Centennials Bulls. Some explosive and intelligent batting by the home side helped them cruise to victory, comfortably beating the Bulls by 190 runs.

After the vital win over Riverina, Western still had a slight chance of topping the Southern Pool and making the final. However, the ACT Southern Districts were standing in Western’s way in round three. Despite putting up a decent fight, the ACT Southern Districts prevailed by seven wickets and ended Western’s shot of playing in the final. Western may have lost in the end, but their spirited performance still earned them a respectable second-place finish. ACT Southern Districts 3/176 beat Western 9/175.

Orange City’s star batters, Shaun Grenfell and Shaun Churchill, each scored a century. Their impressive form prevented the visiting side from putting up a fight.

Rugby Union 9/159 defeated Centrals 158

Basketball’s back

The undefeated Cavaliers were far too good for City Colts. The BOIDC leaders travelled to Bathurst full of confidence, looking to pile more misery on another club in the division.

Basketball made its return to the summer sports action in Orange. Last Thursday, the teams from the Boys High School Division 4 put on an entertaining display in Round nine. Team Ghostbusters had the Bye.

After winning the coin toss, the Cavaliers asserted their early dominance by batting first. Some stellar batting and fine fielding saw the travelling side beat City Colts by 117 runs.

the division’s top-four. Despite the tight contest, OAGS Inferno clinched a 31-30 victory. As a result, OAGS Inferno now sits in second place. In the 6pm game, the lastplaced Kinross Lakers faced the division’s leaders, iCons. The iCons once again put on a dominant display, beating Kinross Lakers 31-9. The leaders are building a firm cushion at the top of the table. The final game of the division saw Kinross Bulls go against the Trojans. Both sides were desperate to win, especially since they were sitting just outside the top four. It may have looked like a tighter game on paper, but the Trojans' dominant and faultless display saw them cruise to a 4410 victory.

Orange City 2/282 defeated Centennials Bulls 92 Centrals needed a faultless performance if they were going to get past Bathurst’s strong Rugby Union at Morse Park. But instead, Rugby Union was able to hold the line and secure the win in the end. As a result, Centrals remain in eighth spot in the BOIDC table, while Rugby Union is having a contrasting season by sitting in third place.

The Scramble event at Wentworth Last Sunday, Wentworth Golf Club hosted a Scramble event. This common golf tournament was a four-person scramble, featuring teams with four players. The weather conditions added another level of complexity for the golfers, especially with the strong winds. The third-placed team featured Craig Sugden, Matt Sugden, Jim Splithoff, and Adam Kelly. Result (56 7/8) The team that secured second place featured Jason Hurford, Evan Webb, Paul Ware, and Rick Young. Result (56 5/8) And the winning team, which now advances to this year’s Scramble Regional Final, featured Nathan Howarth, John Rose, Brad Townsend, and Kieran Copeland. Result (56 1/2) Wentworth Golf Club will hold another Scramble event on Sunday, March 20.

PAVING THE WAY FOR JUNIOR GIRLS FOOTBALL IN ORANGE “There’s nothing wrong with girls dispersing into mixed divisions with boys — it actually makes them more competitive and improves their skills. But there’s fewer opportunities and a lack of talent scouting in these leagues for the girls to get noticed,” Tabitha said.

With women’s football on the rise and Australia set to host the FIFA Women’s World Cup next year, this could be the perfect moment to raise participation rates in girls and women’s football in Orange.

Women’s football is gradually gaining more local interest, especially after the Orange and District Football Association (ODFA) reintroduced an open women’s competition in 2021 after many years absence. While women’s football in Orange may have a higher profile than it has done for years, there is definitely room for growth in the juniors, according to local representative coach, Tabitha Jones. Tabitha says that officials must work harder to provide better opportunities for young girls to begin their footballing journey. The Under 12s Rep coach is offering young girls the chance to take their football talent to the next level — by playing representative football for Orange. Tabitha helps run a separate junior girls football summer competition on Monday afternoons that will continue until April. “Mondays are for a social football competition in the summer, but it also helps the U10s, U12s, and U14s girls

train before the winter competition commences. When they're young, this is where their football pathway begins — so it needs to be interesting for them,” Tabitha said. Most metropolitan areas in Sydney, and many other cities across Australia, all run specific junior girls football divisions. These metro leagues have created more footballing opportunities for junior girls in the city, hence leaving many regional areas in NSW and other Australian regions behind in terms of progress. ODFA however, doesn’t currently have a specific winter football division for the junior girls. With more junior girls coming forward and expressing their interest in football through the innovative Monday summer program and Orange Representative competition, this might help create an exclusive winter football competition for junior girls.

Last year, Tabitha was one of the football coaches who helped start an Orange Rep program for the junior girls. The U12s, U14s, and U16s Rep competitions proved to be a significant success, drawing many of the town’s talented junior girl footballers to hone their skills at a higher level. The junior girls' Rep teams also travelled to Dubbo, Mudgee, and Forbes in the 2021 competition. A Sydney club also came out to Orange one weekend, providing both a challenging test and exciting experience for all grades. Local girls, Ella Vardanega and Emily Metcalfe, both from the U14s Orange Rep side recently discussed how the opportunities in representative football by their coach, Roy Sharma offered a fun and eye-opening experience during the 2021 season. “Rep football makes you meet new people and make new friends. It also gives you more opportunities to explore new football skills,” Ella said. “While it is enjoyable, you also get

to travel to more places when playing different teams,” Emily added. The representative teams also provide a pathway for young girls to start playing the “World Game” at a higher level with the hope that it can offer rewarding experiences and help prepare them for a smoother transition into women’s football after junior years. For local girls keen to have a go at representative football, two trial days for the Orange Rep junior girls teams are being held on consecutive Saturdays, February 12th and 19 thereby offering an excellent opportunity for keen junior girls to get involved in competitive and engaging football. Who knows, maybe the opportunity could turn up future Matilda’s players. Representative Trial Dates and Times: Under 12 Girls - Saturday, February 12, 9am to 10.30am and Saturday Feb 19, 9am to 10:30am (Venue: Bernie Stedman, Jack Brabham) Under 14 Girls - Saturday, February 12, 11am to 12.30pm and Saturday, February 19, 11am to 12.30am (Venue: Bernie Stedman, Jack Brabham) Under 14 Girls - Saturday, February 12, 11am to 12.30pm and Saturday, Feb 19, 11am to 12.30am (Venue: Bernie Stedman, Jack Brabham)

Twelve records; plenty of pool fun, at OAGS carnival While a number of new swimming records were set, there was also plenty of fun and games at Orange Anglican Grammar School’s recent annual swimming carnival held under clear skies at Orange Aquatic Centre. More than 180 students competed in the races on the day with many more attending to cheer their mates on and to participate in the many “dry activities” such as beach volleyball and novelty events. A total of 12 school swimming records were also broken with some beaten by more than seven seconds. Year 9 student Lachlan Thompson — who recently posted National Qualifying times — broke several records on the day continuing his preparation for the National Championships in Adelaide later in the year. Lachlan swims with Orange Aquatic Club and is also a member of the OAGS EAGLE Program (Emerging Athletes Growth,

Leadership and Enrichment Program) — which is a unique concept developed to nurture, support and enrich the sporting talents of selected students. The program is designed for students in Years 7–11 with the focus being on the individualised care and targeted skills needed for young athletes.

Thumbs-up after a fast race, from left, Angus Guyer, Thomas Dixon, Ashleigh Squire, Manuel Camargo Rivera, and Oliver Thompson.

Winning house for the carnival is currently under lock-and-key with the results to be announced at an upcoming school assembly. The swimming is, however, not over for winners of individual events on the day. Selected secondary students will participate in the WAC meet on Friday, March 4 with many progressing to the AICES meet at SOPAC later in the month. Following the carnival, the Primary swim team also heads-off to Sydney Olympic Park to compete in the HICES Swim Championships on Monday, March 7.

ORANGE PROSTATE CANCER SUPPORT GROUP

YOURSPACE

Incy Wincy Spider photos by Sue Gore

The group will be holding their first meeting for 2022 at 6pm, Tuesday, February 15 at Café Connect, 107 Prince Street Orange. As the venue is quite large, we will be able to observe all the present rules and regulations. Our Christmas meeting in November was a great success; the ladies from the Cancer Research Unit at Orange Hospital gave the meeting a brief insight into how the unit operates and the work it carries out. Lindy Ostini, the Prostate nurse from Orange Hospital, informed the meeting that the hours of the Prostate nurse have been extended to three days a week. Unfortunately, she also stated that she would be retiring. Lindy has done a mighty job, not only at the hospital, but her assistance at our information days has been tremendous. At the meeting, she announced that a new nurse had been appointed, but since then the appointment has not been confirmed, and applications for the position are still open at present. The Christmas supper was enjoyed by members and guests with socialising continuing well into the evening. We are hoping that the year ahead will allow us to hold our regular monthly meetings and our members remain healthy and enjoy a little more freedom and enjoyment.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, RING RAY ON 6362 5257.

Ha ppy Va le n ti nes Da y The longest marriage ever was enjoyed by Herbert Fisher (USA, b.

1905) and Zelmyra Fisher (USA, b. 1907), according to Guinness World Records. The couple had been married for 86 years 290 days as of February 27, 2011, when Mr Fisher passed away. Together they withstood the Great Depression and World War II, lived through the Civil Rights Movement and eventually lived to witness the first African-American president of the USA. President Obama even sent them a signed commendation in 2010! Herbert and Zelmyra grew up together as best friends in North Carolina, USA and married on May 13, 1924, when Herbert was 18 years old and Zelmyra was 16. "A friend is for life; our marriage has lasted a lifetime," they said on Valentine’s Day 2010. FEBRUARY 10-16, 2022 | ORANGE CITY LIFE

connected with our carport post. We phoned up thinking that everyone would be off for the Christmas break, and Bec answered the phone in a very friendly manner saying, "no worries, bring it up straight away and we'll sort something out". It was wonderful! Her voice was happy and customer service was impeccable! Ben and the boys got a mallet and were able to make the door close again, so the car could be safe until service were outstanding, and John needs to be congratulated for having such a great team. See you next month when the repair is going to be done.

New Years Resolutions! Following on from our article last fortnight about Powers of Attorney, we would like to add ‘Make an appointment at Blackwell Short to discuss Appointment of Enduring Guardian’ to your New Years Resolutions list. We know it’s February but it’s still the new year! You may have prepared an Enduring Guardianship years ago when you did your Will, or you may not have one in place at all. Either way, it’s a good time to think about it now. An Appointment of Enduring Guardian allows someone you appoint to make medical, health and lifestyle decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so. The powers include but are not limited to decisions regarding home care, hospital care, dental care, residential aged care, blood tests and general medical care. An Appointment of Enduring Guardian comes into effect when you are no longer mentally capable of making medical and care decisions for yourself. For as long as you can make your own decisions, the document won’t be used. However it is very important that you prepare and sign the document with a solicitor while you still have the capacity to do so. Given the increasing complexity in family structures including blended families, medical facilities such as hospitals and aged care homes may require an Appointment of Enduring Guardian so they can be sure they are speaking to the right person regarding your health care. You can appoint more than one person as your guardian, and you should consider appointing an alternate guardian. You need to implicitly trust your guardian, as they will be making significant decisions on your behalf at a time when you won’t be able to direct or guide them.

Contact Geraldine or Deirdre at Blackwell Short on 02 6393 9200 or bsl.reception@blackwellshort.com.au

We look forward to meeting you at our office soon to discuss your Appointment of Enduring Guardian. This article does not constitute legal advice and provides general information only.
