CELEBRATING SWEETHEARTS Aussies are expected to spend $1 billion on Valentine’s Day this year (which is next Friday, February 14) and while our region’s economy continues to face the challenges of drought, all of us are being encouraged to spend those all-important dollars locally! 2020 is already shaping up to be the year of alternative Valentine’s Day presents and plans, as people hope to treat their sweethearts to something a bit different. Valentine’s Day isn’t just for sweethearts. It is also the perfect time to show those you’re closest to how you feel, whether they’re your friends or family members, and remember it doesn’t have to be pricey. Valentine’s Day 2020 looks like being an extra special one for Jake Morley and Shani Van Zyl, pictured. You see, this lovely Dubbo couple are engaged and will get to spend the day chatting about their wedding date which is all set for later this year. Very romantic! PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

CORONAVIRUS IMPACT China sneezes, local markets get the cold

SPECIAL REPORT By JOHN RYAN CHINA’S coronavirus outbreak has caused a global health scare. It’s also causing financial pain across the world, and Dubbo hasn’t been spared that pain. While cities like Sydney are starting to count the cost of plummeting tourism from China, and uncertainty about international students coming to study at local universities, Dubbo and the state’s west is being hit by agriculture’s exposure to China which is a dominant buyer of our export commodities.

Don Chad has operated his Dubbo-based wool buying and merchant business for decades and said this latest set-back came out of the blue. The coronavirus outbreak has seen many nations enforce travel restrictions, which has severely impacted the workforces of many overseas mills. That in turn has created uncertainty among many large importers of Australian wool, with the knockone effect of diminishing local exporters’ buying confidence. Michell’s weekly wool market reports that “the Chinese government has delayed factories re-starting af-

ter Chinese New Year until the 10th of February (around a one-week delay)”. The report further states that: “This date will possibly change and factory owners are still not sure if they will have enough staff to run production as movement across China and between provinces is very slow for staff returning from holiday.” According to Mr Chad the delay has come “completely out of left field”. “This is nothing to do with markets, demand or manufacturing,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “Actually, Chinese manufactur-

ing was increasing until now and suddenly this just hit and the decrease came on. The wool goes to China and is processed and exported to the rest of the world so the Chinese are actually the main processors of wool. That’s why the wool sold at market goes to China. “The change has come dramatically. We were on the rise from just before Christmas – just a nice, slow, steady rise in the market. Then as soon as the Coronavirus hit, it just dropped immediately about 100 cents clean, which is about 60 cents greasy.

Coronavirus impacts ag markets Rawsonville Bridge info session on February 12 RESIDENTS with an interest in the Rawsonville Bridge are being invited to attend an information session to learn more about the plans to replace it. The NSW government earmarked the bridge for removal in November last year and will invest $700,000 to investigate new bridge options. “By building a new concrete bridge rather than closing the old one for extensive repair work, we will avoid lengthy detours for motorists and ensure a safer crossing that is up to the task of supporting the local community for generations to come,” Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders said. The drop-in session will be at the Rawsonville Community Hall, Wednesday, February 12, between 4-7pm. Commemorative heritage interpretation signs will replace the Rawsonville Bridge.

“The market was back from this time last year quite considerably but we were on the rise and just starting to catch up when the Coronavirus hit. About 50 per cent or more (wool) was passed in or withdrawn from the market so the growers actually reacted quite dramatically.” Mr Chad said it’s been a tough time for wool growers already impacted by years of drought. The wool market briefly hit 2100 (cents per kilo, clean) just one year ago. Now it’s down to 1548 last week. “It was 1609 at the beginning of January so it’s come back a little bit but we’re hoping and we’ve put reasonable reserves on the wool we’re selling on Wednesday and all our clients have been very supportive. We’re just trying to do the best we possibly can for them, but we’re restricted by what the overseas markets will pay,” Mr Chad said. “Our clients have taken a big hit and a lot of them are very cautious. They’re ringing up and putting higher reserves on their wool so they’re prepared

to wear a little bit of it in the short term hoping they can hang on for a little while and get a bit extra down the track. “It’s probably the last thing they needed on top of the drought but we’ve been a little bit lucky with this drought in that the commodity prices have been reasonable. It’s one of the worst droughts we’ve seen but the commodity prices have been reasonable and they’ve been able to get something for what they sell. That’s the positive side of it, but the drought is horrible. It’s one of the worst droughts that I’ve seen.” Mr Chad said while the latest set-back has a roll-on effect on local wool business having less throughput, the wool will have to be sold eventually so he hopes the industry will pick up the slack at that time. “Growers are telling us they believe this is a blip in the short term, a very short-term blip and they’re prepared to hang on although the drought’s affecting people, many of who have cash-flow problems so some people are vulnerable at this stage,” he said.

A MUDDY GOOD EFFORT BUILDS WALLS FOR COMMUNITY By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY The city’s thousands of soccer players can thank all the people and teams who enter the MAAS Titan Macquarie Mud Run for five “rebound walls” built on the south west edge of the Lady Cutler Oval soccer fields. Perfect for practicing ball kicking, the walls are among the dozens of pieces of fitness infrastructure funded and built for the whole community to enjoy free, thanks to proceeds from the annual “mud run”. Pictured here are members of MAAS Titan Macquarie Mud Run’s 2020 committee, who are preparing this year’s March 28 event and devising “up and over” ways to use the walls. All obstacles in the mud run however are optional, dependent on your ability. “It’s great having these permanent structures here for everyone to use. For Titan, it means there’s no need to build and erect temporary obstacles and we can spend that money on other infrastructure like the Ninja course we’re building,” MAAS Titan Macquarie Mud Run

committee member Rod Fardell told Dubbo Photo News. If mud run entrants opt to go around the rebound walls, they’ll have a chance to appreciate Apollo House murals painted there using paint also paid for by the event proceeds. “They’re just finalising the designs now and they will all reflect the community,” Mr Fardell said. For your chance to guarantee the Dubbo community continues to get innovative, free fitness and sporting infrastructure courtesy of the MAAS Titan Macquarie Mud Run event entries, registrations are now open for kids, adults and elite categories. “There’s a 20 per cent discount for teams of eight or more people and we’d love to see more teams signing up,” committee member Ann Maree Chandler said.

Cycle club rolling with the punches COUNCIL WATCH By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE night before Dubbo Regional Council began excavating the Victoria Park No.1 oval cycle track last week, junior and senior members of Australia’s official number one club in the nation, the Dubbo Cycle Club, were completing their weekly “hundred lapper” training session. Little did they know it would be the last time anyone in the club would ride the historic circuit where decades of blood, sweat and tears have produced numerous regional, state, national and international cycling champions. An announcement was posted on the club’s Facebook page by club president Matthew Gilbert.

“Today our beloved track of well over a century is in the process of being ripped up. While we know that this action was soon to happen from the announcements and signs, it still comes as a big shock to see (happening) prior to the day listed,” he wrote. An official notice on the fence at Victoria Park No.1 oval indicates the temporary closure for parking would begin on Monday, February 3. The excavation began on Thursday, January 30. Being the last to know has been a long running theme in the transition of the club from its historic training facility to the new. When former Member for Dubbo Troy Grant, then DRC general manager Mark Riley and state government-appointed administrator Michael Kneipp announced funding for Victoria Park Redevelopment,

the club members heard about it in the press. Responses on the club’s Facebook page to pictures of the excavation prompted recollections of memories seeing champions race on the track, hopes to have had a chance of a farewell lap and that as “one chapter closes another one opens”. And so, on the same day, regular Thursday night training was scheduled at the new facility officially beginning a new era for the club. The club will host the Cycling NSW 2020 Junior U9-U13 Track Championships at the new Dubbo Cycling Facility on Saturday and Sunday, February 8 and 9 at 88 River Street, Dubbo. The Dubbo Track Open for U15/U17/U19/Elite and masters will also take place over the same weekend. Spectators are welcome.

RURAL FIRE SERVICE

Bushfires spark push for more help

RECENT heavy downpours and storms creating high water supply turbidity have forced Dubbo Regional Council, in consultation with NSW Health, to install a precautionary “boil water alert” for Geurie. The advice, issued last Thursday, impacted what water residents could put in their mouths, such as that used for drinking, teeth brushing, food preparation and making ice. Geurie residents were also asked to limit water usage until the quality of flows from the town’s treatment plant returned to NSW Health standards. Improved water quality was reported on Monday but by Dubbo Photo News’ deadline Tuesday, council was continuing additional monitoring and testing of water passing through the treatment plant and flushing the system throughout town. As of Tuesday this week, the town’s water filling station remained temporarily closed and token holders were directed to the station at Wellington.

By JOHN RYAN WHILE public appreciation of the heroic work performed for free by the state’s Rural Fire Service (RFS) volunteers has skyrocketed during this horror bushfire season, many local brigades are finding it difficult to attract members. Cumboogle RFS is located just south of Dubbo on the Obley Road and brigade captain Christian Munge said the team is launching a recruitment drive to further strengthen the area’s fire protection capabilities. The brigade is holding an informal information evening tomorrow night (Friday, February 7) at 6:30pm to show locals just how easy it is to be part of the world’s largest volunteer fire-fighting force. “We have a dedicated group of about 15 volunteers. We have two trucks and when called upon we can generally get them both on the road fairly quickly,” Mr Munge said. “We have a brigade area that comprises mainly lifestyle blocks ranging in size from 25 to 50 acres with approximately 180 residences and we also have some larger land holdings in our area. “We are wanting to strengthen our sense of community and hopefully attract some new members who can learn from a great depth of local knowledge and experience that exists within our brigade,” he said. Like volunteers of so many brigades in rural lifestyle areas, Mr Munge said he understands that life has become very busy for so many people. “One of the great things about volunteering with the RFS is that there are jobs for everyone and each individual can choose their own level of involvement and commitment. “Being a member of the RFS is a very rewarding experience and a great way to give back to the community.” He said you can do as much or as little as you want, once you have that basic training which is really simple to do. The commitment then is entirely up to whether you want to be very busy or just be on call for certain things. “We have a number of people we don’t see a lot of but we know we have them there in the back-

ground so if we’re short of a crew and we need to make a call we know they’re there. “You don’t have to be the biggest, strongest, fittest male in the world, anyone can be involved and we’d love to see more ladies join up,” he said. The Cumboogle members are concerned that people see the “flash” protective uniforms and may be a bit intimidated to make an approach about joining up. “That’s the barrier we’re trying to break down. We don’t want people to feel too intimidated to come and talk to us about joining up. The idea of the community meeting is to try to make people feel welcome and to come along and find out what’s involved. It’s open to everyone,” Mr Munge said, pointing out that being a volunteer fire fighter is woven into the social aspect of life in rural Australia, where volunteers in many ways get more out of it than they put into it. “It’s unbelievably satisfying to be able to help people out and to see people at their most vulnerable like they are at the moment. Just being able to do something is gratifying, it’s human nature

to want to be able to help,” Mr Munge said. “It gets very emotional. When you approach somebody’s property and there’s a fire coming over the hill and they’re just hoping someone turns up, it gives you goosebumps, just knowing that you can actually, physically help someone. “Right from back at the end of September, we’ve had brigade members go away to the Drake and the Bees Nest fires up north, I went to Ebor, Steve went down to Cooma, we did a number of deployments to Kerry’s Ridge over near Rylstone and Ilford, not to mention what’s happened locally. We haven’t had anything in our own brigade area but the Goonoo sort of kept us on our toes for a bit and just different things that happened,” he said. Senior deputy captain Stephen Taylor has spent plenty of time away from home during the past few months when the brigade was deployed down south around the Tumbarumba area and said he couldn’t get over how the locals expressed immense gratitude for the out-of-area crews being there.

“We were in a local coffee shop with another member, we ordered a coffee and the shopkeeper said it’s alright fellas, no need to pay. He made the coffee and came back with a little white bag with RFS written on it, the local patrons had all been paying a little bit extra for their coffees to pay for the coffees for volunteer firefighters,” Mr Taylor said. “It’s very gratifying to know that everybody’s supporting us in that way. We were returning from one deployment and pulled up at West Wyalong to grab a coffee in the local McDonalds and the young girl said coffee’s free for RFS volunteers. It’s humbling.” The information evening is at the Cumboogle RFS shed about 8km south of Dubbo on the Obley Road. Turn off the Newell Highway as if you’re going to the zoo and just keep driving, it’s on the right-hand side. There’ll be a short information session, a tour of the trucks and station and then a free sausage sizzle. For further information call Christian Munge on 0428 783 923.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

IN BRIEF

Is breast best? You bet, say experts By LYDIA PEDRANA

IT’S long been said that “breast is best” and according to breastfeeding experts, that is still the case. Research by the Australian Breastfeeding Association (ABA) shows that nine out of 10 women start out breastfeeding, but by four months fewer than half of the nation’s babies are fully breastfed. Local lactation consultant Debbie Dixon, who travels around the central west region providing breastfeeding support to mothers and their babies, said the benefits of breast milk for both mum and bub are superior to substitutes. “Some of the best benefits of breastfeeding are the bonding and the immunity breastmilk provides because it’s live immunity which is different to formula,” Mrs Dixon told Dubbo Photo News. “Also, (there is) the affordability of breast milk and you can go anywhere with the baby and not have to pack up supplies, get it to the right temperature and find places to heat it up and give it. There’s also less chance of infection because it’s direct feeding from mother to baby, but I think the big thing is the immune and nutritional benefits.” According to the ABA, breastmilk also satisfies a baby’s hunger and thirst, meaning no extra water is needed. The milk is always fresh, clean and safe, and it increases a baby’s resistance to infection and disease. For mothers, breastfeeding helps the uterus return to its normal size after childbirth, it quickly soothes a fussy, unhappy baby and research shows that mothers who don’t or aren’t able to breastfeed have increased risks of breast and ovarian cancer. Dubbo mother of three, Karen Rauchle, breastfed all her children, including four-week-old Hamish (pictured) for health and connection reasons. “I chose to breastfeed because there are so many immunity boosters that come from breastmilk and all the vitamins and minerals they can get out of it. Colostrum is really, really high in fat and they need that to just start building up those calories when they are really tiny,” she said. “But above all, the bond be-

There’s 445,000 ounces of gold in them ‘thar’ Tomingley hills A POTENTIAL inferred mineral resource of 7.02 million tonnes of grade 1.97 g/t gold, or the equivalent of around 445,000 ounces, has been confirmed by Alkane Resources near Tomingley. While of low-grade gold, according to World Gold Council definitions, it is considered a very valuable find. Alkane is waiting on NSW government approvals for an underground exploration but have confidently bought equipment, recruited personnel and acquired land to facilitate a rapid development once the green light is given. The Roswell Deposit is located 3km south of Alkane’s operating Tomingley Gold Operations (TGO) mine and processing facility.

tween me and my baby is probably the biggest reason behind why I wanted to breastfeed.” As a non-practising registered nurse, member of the ABA and mother of three, Mrs Dixon believes many breastfeeding issues stem from not being given the right information and right support at the right time. Mrs Dixon understands that things don’t always happen between the hours of 9-5, and offers home consultations at times that suit her clients. “With breastfeeding it’s so instant. When they have a problem, they need help right now and if they have to wait for that help or wait for an office to open at 9 o’clock on a Monday morning, it’s too late if they have problems at the weekend,” she said. “The issue could be that the

mother has sore nipples, or that the baby is not grabbing the breast probably, and because it hasn’t been picked up that the baby isn’t actually transferring milk well enough, the baby might lose weight, or they become extremely fussy. “Another example is a baby that was jaundiced and they tend to be very sleepy babies, so they go to sleep and then they are not getting enough breastmilk and maybe the mother has not been advised they need to actually wake the baby at certain times to get the milk in.” She has also met mothers who have been advised to give up breastfeeding because they are suffering mastitis, taking certain medications or undergoing an anaesthetic. “Sometimes, but not always –

there is a lot of good advice there – but you get a lot of this outdated advice saying “you’ve got to pump and dump that milk” or “you can’t breastfeed when you’re on that sort of medication”, whereas they could contact a medication hotline that deals with these sorts of medication for women breastfeeding, and get advice direct from them. Usually, most times, they can keep feeding.” Mrs Dixon and the ABA also recognise and respect that some women do not want to breastfeed or cannot breastfeed for various reasons. The ABA offers counselling to those whose breastfeeding experience was not as planned. To book a lactation consultation with Debbie Dixon, call or text 0419 636 671 or email d.m. dixon@gmail.com

Bush Brothers history on show Bush Brothers Heritage Centre coordinator Austin Jupp with some of the memorabilia from the Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd opening to the public on Fridays, starting February 7. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY DID you know that in 1903 the first Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd minister to lead a Christian service in the region did so at the Balladoran Pub out near Gilgandra? This and other stories about the years of dedicated service in the western plains and far west, using Dubbo as a base, are to be found in the Bush Brothers Heritage Centre located on the grounds of the Holy Trinity Church Dubbo, along with memorabilia dat-

ing back to the organisation’s beginnings. “The Brothers were generally from rich families who left England around Christmas time, met at the Quay in Sydney and were sent to Bourke on the train. They (committed) to working five years, taking a vow of chastity, obedience and poverty,” said the Heritage Centre’s coordinator Austin Jupp. A member of the Holy Trinity’s Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd board, Mr Jupp has worked tirelessly with supporters from Holy Trinity

Church collecting memorabilia from the organisation’s past, including a portable organ found in a shed in Bourke, the carved ivory and engraved silver cutlery used by ministers, and a portable communion set, bound in leather for easy strapping to a saddle or in the case one Brother Erskine, a pushbike. The Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd was founded by former aide to then NSW Governor Sir Harry Rawson (after whom Rawsonville is named). Fred Campion was visiting

Warren, where he discovered the locals had not had access to ministry for more than a decade. Inspired, he returned to England with a friend, Charles Mathews, to become ordained and then moved to Dubbo and launched the Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd, affectionately known as the Bush Brothers. The Heritage Centre will be open this Friday, February 7, from 11am to 3pm, and then each Friday after that at the same time, or by appointment. For further information phone 0429841296.

TRIVIA TEST

My, my, how can I resist you? By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

MONEY, Money, Money, Voulez-vous, Super Trouper, Dancing Queen and just about every chart-topping ABBA song there is rolled into a now, much loved, multi awarded winning musical package: Mamma Mia. In fact, audiences are treated to 22 ABBA songs and the cast members of the Dubbo Theatre Company have been chosen for performances of Mamma Mia scheduled for late July and early August. For the uninitiated, Mamma Mia tells the story of Sophie, who is preparing to marry her fiancé in the Greek Islands, and she wants her father to walk her down the aisle. He could be one of three men she’s found referenced in her mother’s diary and she takes the liberty of inviting them all to her wedding, without informing her mother. Local talent Jo Gibb will play the mother, Donna, and her real-life daughter, Tonisha Francis, will perform as her onstage daughter, Sophie. “I think it might be the first time they have appeared on stage together in lead roles. There is a wonderful mix of familiar and new faces in lead roles,” director Christine Bray told Dubbo Photo News. The comedic chaos that unfolds over the course of Mamma Mia is lifted to a whole new level with the ABBA songs musical score. Michelle O’Callahan and Julia Marshall will play Donna’s best friends, Rosie and Tanya. The potential dads will be played by Al Smith (Sam Carmichael), Greg Markwick (Bill Anderson) and James Eddy (Harry Bright). Other players are Courtney Troy (playing Ali), Olivia Connelly (Lisa) and Jordan Davis (Sky). There will be six performances and the company is hoping for a sell-out season. Mamma Mia is one of the longest running shows on Broadway and the West End and in theatres all around the world. Tickets for the Dubbo show are on sale now through the Dubbo Regional Theatre.

Boundary to Sheraton Roads extensions continue… finally

AFTER more than a year’s delay, construction will start next month on the second stage of Dubbo Regional Council’s Boundary Road extension project. The 1.2km two-lane sealed and fully kerbed extension will connect Boundary Road from Alexandrina Avenue through to Sheraton Road. Stage Two also includes construction of integrated bike lanes, installation of street lighting and underground electricity, telecommunications, sewer and stormwater infrastructure and a footpath on the southern side. The first stage of the $8 million Boundary Road project, between Wheelers Lane and Alexandrina Avenue, was completed by council in late 2018, after successful tenderer for the work, Singleton-based Shearer Contracting Pty Ltd, was placed in voluntary administration which raised questions about council’s due diligence on tender applicants. The project is funded by the NSW government ($4 million) and Alkane Resources ($2.3 million). The project is expected to be completed in December this year.

COUNCIL WATCH

Buy a bottle from the bush

Postage subsidy for regional retailers should Bushfire smoke creates new challenge for region’s winemakers go national By LYDIA PEDRANA

AS Mudgee winemakers undergo grape testing for smoke taint, they are reminding people that they are still open for business. The potential smoke damage is a double whammy for the region’s vineyards which are already experiencing low yields due to the drought. Paula Hanson-Riley, owner of Lazy Oak Wines, said this is “unknown ground” for winemakers. “It’s a really difficult, unprecedented (bushfire) event that we’ve had so people really don’t know what to do and they are trying to make those decisions based on the knowledge that’s out there and the testing as well,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “Wineries in Mudgee are definitely testing and making sure that the quality of wine this vintage is perfect, but everyone is on high alert, I guess you could say.” According to the Australian Wine Research Institute (AWRI), “smoke taint” occurs when vineyards and grapes are exposed to smoke, and wines produce undesirable sensory characters such as smoky, burnt, ashy or medicinal. Compounds in the smoke, called phenols, can be absorbed into the fruit and bind to the grapes’ sugar to form a compound called glycosides. During fermentation, or over time in a barrel or bottle, the glycosides can break apart releasing the phenols and giving the wine a smoky flavour. Mrs Hanson-Riley said test results could differ across the region with some wineries more impacted than others. “To test the grapes, they do a small ferment over a period of five days; it’s about two kilograms worth of fruit and they crush it and put the necessary yeast and chemicals and that sort of stuff in

it and see how that develops over five days to see if it produces those smoke taints or not,” she said. “There will be some wineries that will choose not to make any wine, and there will be some wineries that choose only to make the whites and rosés that are for quick consumption. “It really is winery-based and each winery will have to make its own decision on what to do.” Despite the threat of smoke taint, Mrs Hanson-Riley encouraged people to follow the Buy From The Bush mantra and grab a “bottle from the bush”.

DUBBO Regional Council Mayor Ben Shields has called on the federal government to implement free postage program for regional retailers nationally on the back of Dubbo Regional Council’s own program conducted before Christmas to subsidise local businesses’ postage. Mayor Shields (pictured) has approached Federal Member for Dubbo Mark Coulton about the issue and during council’s meeting last week, Cr Anne Jones suggested Federal Member for Calare Andrew Gee, whose electorate takes in Wellington, be included in discussions. Cr Dane Gumley addressed council on the issue, saying free regional retailer’s postage would be an opportunity for the federal government to get on board and support “our rural and regional communities”. “We know our communities can band together at the grass roots level. We’ve seen things like #buyfromthebush grow to enormous proportions be we know government can help build that momentum,” Cr Gumley said.

` We are still open for business and we have plenty of great wine. Those wineries that do produce a vintage this year, it’s still going to be top notch wine... a – Paula Hanson-Riley, Lazy Oak Wines “We are still open for business and we have plenty of great wine. We’re really trying to do all this testing to make sure the wine we do produce is top quality, so those wineries that do produce a vintage this year, it’s still going to be top notch wine. “They (winemakers) are doing everything they can to produce that quality wine that Mudgee is known for.” Sadly though, Red Earth Estate winery in Dubbo will not produce a vintage. Owner, Bob Quan, said the smoke may have been a factor, but it was mainly the drought that led to the decision. “This year our grapes aren’t that good because of the lack of water, they are very small,” he said. “We have decided not to make any wine”.

Incentives for water wise tools to be backdated

Paula Hanson-Riley, of Lazy Oak Wines at Mudgee says despite the threat of “smoke taint” on the current vintage, the region’s winemakers are still producing a top notch drop and are urging consumers to “buy a bottle from the bush”. PHOTO: SUPPLIED/PAULA HANSON RILEY

A MAYORAL Minute has been tabled with Dubbo Regional Council calling for the expansion of its Water Saving Rebate (WSR) Scheme, with rebates for water saving tools to be backdated to November 1, 2019 . The rebates are already available for 3-star or higher (Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards) WELS water shower heads and irrigation timers, of up to 50 per cent of the purchase price. Mayor Ben Shields wishes to expand rebates to include $150 for dual flush toilets (up to two toilets per household), $150 for pool covers and $250 for water tanks above 2,000 litres. “Council has looked at other regional cities like Tamworth and Armidale where these rebates are already available and have found that they are greatly supported by their residents and business communities in achieving their water saving targets,” Cr Shields said.

JOB OPPORTUNITIES

Many rungs on the ladder for those who want to climb Connie Richardson lets job-seekers at Fletcher’s know roles at the plant may start out on the floor, but that doesn’t mean they’re simply get-youthrough jobs. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO

By JOHN RYAN CONNIE RICHARDSON moved to Dubbo when her husband took up a job in the city. She’d been working at JBS Scone, the Hunter Valley beef abattoir, and she was all set to start work in the training department at Fletcher International. She found out just how flexible and mobile the company was on her very first day. “When I got here they asked me to go in to finance administration because that was my background,” Mrs Richardson said. “Then somebody went on holidays and the manager was on her own in training so I came over to help and that’s where I’ve found I really liked it. That’s where I was meant to start up and I’ve stayed there and now I’m doing interviews, inductions and whatever else is needed but I’ll go back to finance and help over there if I’m needed.” Mrs Richardson loves the variety and said it’s an incredibly important company asset, both in terms of back-up support and culture, that so many people are constantly trying out and learning new jobs at the plant. It means there’s a large pool of multi-skilled workers so if someone is away, there’s always someone else who is able to jump into that role, people who have on the job experience to cover in those positions. “I think it’s very important.

CAREER MOVES JOB expos don’t happen often enough in regional areas, but when they do happen, the can be very valuable in providing the opportunity to connect directly with employers in various industries (administration, sales, health care, etc.) at one convenient time and place. To set yourself apart from other attendees and leave a lasting impression on recruiters, you need to adequately prepare.

Before the event: z Consult the schedule for the job expo and determine in advance which employers you would like to meet with. z Research the companies that interest you. z Look over your CV and make

NEWS/JOHN RYAN

We’re all a team so we’re all here for the end goal and we’re all here for each other,” Mrs Richardson said, pointing out that moving towns didn’t stop her from showing up to work each day. “I love working here. I drive all the way from Mudgee now – an hour and twenty minutes to an hour and a half every day, every

morning and every afternoon. I love coming to work, they’re a great crew. “It doesn’t matter whether you’re working in the training department, in the finance department, or whether you’re in export or on the floor, everyone’s friendly and helpful. There hasn’t been anyone I’ve gone to for help or to ask

a question who hasn’t been glad to help,” she said. Many interviews she conducts are with school-leavers or younger adults and she said she gets plenty of satisfaction from explaining how many career pathways there are right here in Dubbo. “I didn’t finish high school but I’ve never been without a job. I’ve

had management roles – I’ve never stayed on the bottom of the ladder. If you want more you can work towards that, the opportunity is always there if you want to take it and especially out here,” Mrs Richardson said. “In the interviewing roles, you see the young ones come in and you try to find out why they’re here, why they want to work here and what they hope to get out of it, things like that. Many of them want the satisfaction of earning their own money so it gives me great satisfaction if I can help put them on that right road. It gives you a good buzz.” She lets job-seekers know roles at the plant may start out on the floor, but that doesn’t mean they’re simply get-you-through jobs. “They’re certainly not. For any recent school leavers, there are so many different roles that you can do here, it can be far more than just earning money. You can have a career in this industry, you could start on the floor and end up as an export manager selling Fletcher meat to countries all around the world,” she said. “I love coming to work knowing that I’m there to help. I’m an empty-nester mother so I must be looking for people to look after.”

How to navigate a job expo sure you have several copies on hand for the day. z Prepare a short presentation (about 30 seconds) during which you’ll outline your experience and professional skills. z Dress for the event as if you were attending a formal interview.

During the event: z Take a look at the floor plan and find the kiosks that interest you most. z Approach representatives enthusiastically; a confident attitude, a firm handshake and direct eye contact always make a good first impression. z Speak clearly and remain concise in your explanations. z Listen carefully to what the re-

cruiter has to say, and express your interest in the company’s activities. z Don’t hesitate to ask specific questions regarding the position you covet. z Don’t forget to leave a copy of your CV with the recruiter. z Ask for a business card or leave your contact information with the recruiter or representative present.

After the event: z A few days later, follow up with the recruiters that you had the pleasure of meeting at the expo. Thank them again for their time, make reference to some important points raised during your conversation and express interest in their organisation once more. Good luck!

Inquiry begins into city-country education gap By LYDIA PEDRANA A PUBLIC hearing into the educational attainment gap between students living in rural, regional and remote areas and their peers in metropolitan areas began in parliament yesterday. The House Standing Committee on Employment, Education and Training scrutinised the Department of Education, Skills and Employment on what is being done to improve the disparity. This was the first hearing of the Committee’s inquiry into the education of students in remote and complex environments, like drought and natural disaster, which will consider what initiatives are in place to meet the unique learning needs of these students and address barriers they may face when accessing education.

Chair Mr Andrew Laming MP said the Committee is concerned that regional, rural and remote students’ achievements in education have been lower than that of metropolitan students for many years. “It is confronting that young people living in the bush have lower educational attainment rates in school, in Year 12 and in tertiary education than those in cities,” he said. “Regardless of where they live, young Australians should be supported to meet their potential with high quality education and meaningful pathways to further education and employment.” Research by the National Regional, Rural and Remote Tertiary Education Strategy Advisory Group in 2019 revealed that, compared to their metro counterparts, students in regional, rural and re-

mote areas are less likely the complete secondary schooling, less likely to apply for higher education, less likely to accept their university offer, more likely to defer university offers and less likely to completely tertiary education. In 2018, Regional Development Australia (RDA) Orana conducted a skills audit across the region and found that the quality of secondary education available in regional, rural and remote issues was a major issue.

RDA Orana director Megan Dixon said she was pleased to see the government is recognising the gap and the organisation would continue to push for improvements to the region’s quality of education. “Our findings suggested that as well as a clear lag in academic results in rural schools, the reputations of local schools is poor in terms of academic results. Schools in all parts of the region are having difficulty attracting and retaining teachers and access to teachers reduces the range of subject choices on offer, particularly for HSC students,” she said. “RDA Orana is committed to being a voice for the region and advocating for the same quality of education as our city friends.” The Independent Education Union of Australia (IEU) NSW/ACT branch, which represents 30,000 non-government school teachers,

support staff and early childhood teachers, is also pushing for rural and remote school improvements. IEUA NSW/ACT Branch Secretary Mark Northam said that better outcomes for rural and remote students are linked to better support for teachers working in such areas. “It is important that rural and regional teachers are afforded rights and conditions that prevent them being disadvantaged compared to their metropolitan counterparts,” he said. “This is particularly important for early childhood teachers, as many work alone in remote area preschools, and have trouble accessing professional development.” The union would like to see the government introduce incentives which attract and retain rural and regional teachers.

WHEN you’re a new comedy-rock band on the rise and your song is picked up by Triple J, Triple J Unearthed and FBi Radio Sydney, plus your latest single is streamed 23,000 times, it’s a very big deal, but, knowing two members of the band are former St John’s College Dubbo students puts them instantly on the DubVegas walk of fame (or it would if we had one). Former Dubbo students Eugene Dunn and Harrison Lovell are both away studying at uni, Mr Dunn at the Conservatorium of Music in Sydney (piano) and Mr Lovell undertaking visual arts in Wollongong. In 2018, the childhood friends started the outfit which has now grown to six-piece band and is gaining traction in the music scene on the East Coast. By their own definition, their sound is “poorly defined” but their music is only half the story. “When we walk on stage, it is best summed up as an elephant stampede of personality and colour,” Mr Lovell said. This week they released their first EP, called The Tin Knees Are Dead, on all streaming services, and are taking it on tour to Sydney, Wollongong, Newcastle and

Dubbo where they’ll be on stage at the Amaroo on Saturday, February 8, between 8-11pm. They’re old hands at live performance, having already taken to the stage at the 2019 Yours and Owls Festival, placed second in the Unisounds National Campus Music Competition and even hosted a charity music festival in their own backyard to raise more than $1000 for (men’s health campaign) Movember. The new single is called Sarah Tonin.

Old Dubbo Gaol steps back in time for its own prohibition

THERE’LL be secret bars and hideaways within the walls of the Old Dubbo Gaol during the Prohibition at the Yard event, the Old Dubbo Gaol’s interpretation of Australia’s crackdown and regulation of alcohol consumption in the 19th and 20th centuries. “There will be live swing music by Dr Crask and His Swingin’ Elixir, food served by Eat Your Greens, and bootlegging by Devil’s Elbow Brewery,” Old Dubbo Gaol operations coordinator Julie Webster said. As part of Prohibition at the Yard, Dubbo Regional Council and the Old Dubbo Gaol have produced a podcast, titled Prohibition, which was launched this week at an unveiling hosted by council’s Annabelle Amos, Chris Anemaat and

EMERGENCY REPORT NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Cumboogle brigade needs you! IF you’re human and have any empathy for fellow humans, you must have wondered what you could do to assist the bushfire victims in recent months. It’s a simple and relatively painless exercise to donate some cash if you have a few spare bucks lying around, but one thing that can really help is to join your local Rural Fire Service (RFS) brigade. Cumboogle RFS is headquartered about 8km south of Dubbo, turn off left onto Obley Road as if you’re going to the zoo and just keep going for a few minutes. The guys are looking for new members and are holding an information evening tomorrow night (Friday, February 7) and will welcome all community members to a tour of the station, a quick chat about what they do and how you can help by volunteering, followed by a free sausage sizzle.

The Dubbo Photo News column dedicated to the hard work of our emergency services personnel.

Police say she went to the front door and noticed it was open, and that items in the house had been moved around. The woman also noticed her house keys and a handbag containing her passport, wallet and cash missing. She was uninjured during this incident but police established a crime scene and are asking anyone with information relating to this crime to let them know.

RFS truck rollover A LUCKY escape for a volunteer firefighter who suffered only minor injuries when the fire truck he was driving on a maintenance run rolled near Firgrove Estate on Dubbo’s eastern outskirts. The driver had a few abrasions and was transported to Dubbo Hospital by paramedics for treatment and observation, as well as to undergo the mandatory testing procedures which come into play after any traffic incident. The tanker was extensively damaged as a result. Police and the Rural Fire Service will investigate the cause of the rollover and Roads and Maritime Services inspectors have inspected the truck for roadworthiness.

Coronavirus warning shared from Orana cops

the transfer of disease isn’t exactly a new thing.

THE world is small these days in many respects. One day you could be in Wuhan, China, the next day you could be in Dubbo, or at least until they began limiting the movement of people. But we’re so interconnected that Orana Police felt compelled to send out a public alert from NSW Health, via the NSW State Emergency Operations Controller, warning anyone who’d been travelling to, or transiting through, mainland China (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan), to isolate themselves at home for 14 days after leaving China. Even an island continent like Australia isn’t immune to these sorts of things with the rapid transport links available these days. Having said that, the First Fleet apparently brought a few undesirable germs along on its journey, so

Cobar cannabis A 53-YEAR-OLD man has been charged and 11 cannabis plants have been seized after police executed a search warrant at a home on Brennan Street, Cobar, about 11.30am last Friday. During the search, police located and seized cannabis plants, cannabis leaf and cannabis seed. The man was taken to Cobar Police Station and charged with cultivate prohibited drug and two counts of possess prohibited drug.

z Dustys Creek, 10km north of Gilgandra Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) advises the work involves minor maintenance after recent heavy rainfall and will take place on the road shoulders and alongside the highway. A reduced speed limit of 80 km/h will be in place during work hours. RMS further advises that the Mitchell Highway between Dubbo and Narromine is scheduled to have survey work done until tomorrow (Friday, February 7) on various sections of road. Work vehicles will be fitted with warning lights, and signs will be in place to warn motorists when work is taking place. There will be no changes to posted speed limits, but motorists are asked to follow the direction of warning signs and respect workers and other motorists. Overtaking is not permitted in work areas.

Cobar house fire COBAR police are appealing for public assistance after a suspicious house fire, where a vacant home in Kurrajong Circle was found well alight by emergency services who had responded to the call in the early hours of January 24. Fire and Rescue NSW attended and extinguished the blaze that had partially destroyed the home. Police established a crime scene and are investigating the circumstances surrounding the fire. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Mohr supports “long overdue” Wellington CCTV

PHOTO: KERRI WELDON

By LYDIA PEDRANA While staying with friends in Yarrabandai near Trundle, Kerri Weldon snapped this impressive shot of the dust storm rolling in two Sundays ago. The amateur photographer took the photos with her Samsung Galaxy Note 10.

“I have never been in a dust storm before,” Ms Weldon told Dubbo Photo News. “I had to put my friend’s car in the garage after I saw that coming over the house and the shed isn’t close to the house. “I came out and had to walk through it (the dust storm) to get back to the house; it was

an experience indeed.” Ms Weldon’s friends, Nate and Sandra Hosking, live on a 3500-acre property, 24 kilometres south west of Trundle. Mr Hosking said the dust storm “made me want to run inside”. Luckily, they had “most” of their windows and doors shut as the wall of orange dust hit,

but there was still a big cleanup to do afterwards. Originally a locksmith from Kangaroo Island in South Australia, Ms Weldon sold or donated everything she owned, including her professional camera, before packing up her car to travel around the country. Fortunately, she wasn’t

directly impacted by the bushfires that swept through Kangaroo Island, but she has friends who were. “I am only affected by the fires through the closeness I have to people affected,” Ms Weldon said. “We are a close community and I am so sad I am not there to help and support.”

Showgirls are giving hair with heart By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY RAISING money to buy a child a wheelchair by simply by cutting off your hair is a challenge the current and 2017 Dubbo Showgirls have accepted. ZooFM Dubbo Showgirl Tyla Comerford and 2017 Dubbo Showgirl, Rose Broughton, have joined forces to help raise money for children’s charity, Variety, and to support the Dubbo Show Society. Variety’s Hair with Heart fundraising campaign gives a person’s hair a second life to make a wig for someone who has lost their hair due to a long-term medical condition. All the money from the sale of Miss Comerford and Miss Broughton’s hair will also go towards giving kids in need a fair go, such as buying a new wheelchair for a child with disability or buying school uniforms for kids doing it tough.

“Variety said there are about 14 kids in the Dubbo area (whom) they are currently helping,” Miss Comerford said. “There are guidelines we have to follow so the length of hair needs to be 35.5cm and be all nat-

Both community-minded young women, the pair met through the show society which supports their fundraising efforts. “Being a show girl doesn’t require any specific responsibilities. You can really make it what you want, so being community-minded and having a lot of hair, I’ve decided to cut it off, donate it and raise money for Variety,” Miss Comerford said. Proceeds will be split equally between Variety and the Dubbo Show Society. Variety will sell the girls’ hair to raise funds to support children in need.

DUBBO Regional Council is considering expanding the Neighbourhood Shopping Precinct CCTV financial assistance program to Wellington. The program was introduced for Boundary Road, Tamworth Street and Victoria Street businesses in Dubbo last financial year. “When it comes to Wellington, we need to be more proactive in assisting local law enforcement,” Cr Ben Shields said and Councillor Greg Mohr agrees. “I think this is well overdue. We only have to look at social media and the number of pictures caught by CCTV of people doing the wrong thing or even (of) missing persons. It gives the authorities more leeway in trying to catch perpetrators at the time,” he said. As it stands, successful applicants are able to access $500 to go towards the purchase and installation of a CCTV system.

IT’S A RECORD! To promote Chinese traditional tea culture, 288 participants recently achieved the Guinness World Records title for the most people whisking tea simultaneously. In the Song Dynasty of China, Chinese tea was not only for drinking but also a competitive activity.

ACCORDING to online price comparison site Finder, 79 per cent of Australians made New Year’s resolutions for 2020, and more than half, or 53 per cent, want to lose weight or ramp up their fitness regime. But personal trainer, Rod Fardell from Body Options in Dubbo said people often go too hard too fast with New Year fitness goals. Mr Fardell said he usually sees an influx of new clients around this time of year as people settle back into routine. “People have just come off a period where they have been binge eating and they’ve not been moving much; they’ve had family over, they’ve been travelling or they’ve been on holidays, but overall, they been doing little movement and lots of eating,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

“For most, this time of year is just the starting period because a lot of parents work off the school terms; kids have just gone back to school and parents have found they have more time to do other things.” But the well-known fitness exponent said the best way to keep your New Year resolution is to take it slowly. The key is to not overcommit and instead accept that starting small is better than doing nothing at all. “Make healthy changes slow but progressive, don’t set goals that are beyond your means early and so starting nice and easy is a good thing. “Also look at habits that you can stay with in long term rather those that are shortlived but with high expectations where you fall off the wagon quickly and you’re setting yourself up for failure. “You want to create habits that can last quite some time,

Rod’s top tips for sticking to your 2020 fitness goals 1. Start small 2. Make goals achievable and realistic 3. Correct your mindset 4. Don’t be too strict on yourself

and when I say quite some time, I mean forever.” Additionally, Mr Fardell says mindset plays a major part in achieving goals. Correcting your thinking can be the difference between keeping to your resolutions or banishing them before you even get started. “If people have that little sub-conscious mind in play saying that they are fat and lazy, then that’s exactly what they’ll be,” he said. “So, if they see themselves as something else – as healthy,

attractive people, and we’re not talking about Instagram models because that can be a totally negative experience, particularly for young teenagers – but definitely when you’re looking at setting up a good mindset for health, it’s not purely about aesthetics. It’s about the way you feel, the way you move, where your energy is and what you give off as part of that.” Kate Browne from Finder recommended enlisting the help of a friend to keep you on track or sticking post-it notes around the home to remind you of what your goals are. She also said it’s important not to be too tough on yourself. “If you fall off the bandwagon or experience a setback, don’t give up,” Ms Browne said. “It doesn’t matter if you miss a month, pick yourself back up and keep going”.

THE GRUFFALO’S CHILD

Fresh from the stages of their world tour, including the Edinburgh and Adelaide Fringe Festivals and a sell-out season at the Sydney Opera House, these nine talented gents from the United Kingdom are now heading our way.

If you loved The Gruffalo when it came to Dubbo in 2019, don’t miss the sequel, which returns following previous sell-out Australian tours – now in a new West End production! Join the Gruffalo’s Child on her adventurous mission in this magical musical adaptation of the much-loved picture book.

Combining live music, high energy dance and a few surprises, with everything from piña coladas to live pint percussion, the Choir of Man is a rollicking good time; jam-packed with all your favourite pub classics, rock ballads and pop hits from Avicii to Adele, Sia to Queen, Guns ‘n’ Roses and more.

Dubbo bloke builds a beer empire By LYDIA PEDRANA HE lives by the mantra “if you don’t ask, the answer is always no” and it has certainly served Brendan Watters well. The knockabout Dubbo bloke has recently acquired a popular craft beer company once valued at a billion dollars. The St John’s College alumnus has a story similar to many local ex-pats. After leaving high school he moved to Sydney to complete a business accounting degree, lived with a bunch of mates in a share house, brewed beer for fun, graduated, then set off the travel the world for with his then-current flame, Lisa. “I put a backpack on and went for two years travelling around the world and we just did the twenty bucks a day, standard Aussie thing. I’d been through the US and when we ran out of money, I thought, “Oh, I like this place” and put my name in the hat and I won a green card in the lottery back in 1998,” he told Dubbo Photo News. And this is where his story gets interesting. Making Lisa his wife and settling in Chicago, Mr Watters landed a job with the consulting company he had once worked for in Sydney. Later, he did a stint in the hotel business as a corporate developer, before starting his own chain, aptly named Boomerang Hotels. With 85 sites across the US and China, hospitality juggernaut Red Lion swept in and bought the hotels for more than $12 million. “I was feeling a little bit burnt out and told them they could take my hotels and all my staff, but I wasn’t interested in being part of a public company,” he recalled. “I said, “I don’t want to be talking to Wall Street analysts because I’ll tank the stock price in a heartbeat” – I say the wrong s**t all the time!”. After a healthy payout, Mr Watters went back to dabbling in home brew. “I wanted to start brewing again

like I did in Australia, so I was going to get my stuff together and my wife said “You’re not doing that in the house again!” so I went out and rented a place and just started home brewing,” he said.

` I’m not anything special. It’s just I’ve found myself in a certain spot and you know, you take some risks. All I’ve done is take risks for the past 20 years... a

“Then a buddy of mine, Chris Bradley, an English fellow said “Would you mind if I jump in with you?”. He’s a biochemist so we just started hanging out and people wanted to drink (what we brewed), so I thought, let’s sell it.” In 2016, Mr Watters’ and Mr Bradley’s own beer brand Kings and Convicts was born and in 2017, they sold their first pint. Coincidentally, it was over a pint that Mr Watters put his life mantra into action. While meeting with one of the executives from Constellation Brands – the producers of some of the world’s biggest alcohol brands, including Corona and Kim Craw-

ford – he used his bold Aussie charm to make an offer on an iconic US craft beer brand which was once worth $1 billion. “Over a beer, I just said to Charlie, “Mate, what are you guys doing with Ballast Point?” and he said “Why?”. I told him because I want to buy the thing and he said “Are you serious?” And I said, yeah, why not?” Because if you don’t ask, the answer will always be no, right? Before he knew it, Mr Watters was in touch with Constellation’s head of mergers and acquisition and had signed non-disclosure agreement. “I then went like a mad bastard

for the next four months trying to work out how I pull this off,” Mr Watters laughed. “I signed a contract with a massive public company and then I started going around to people who had backed me before, people I knew from our private world, and said I need some money. I got about half a dozen people who have known me here in the US and they’ve backed me on it.” While he may have acquired one major American beer company as well as starting his own, fellow Dubboians will be pleased to know Mr Watters’ certainly hasn’t lost his accent or sense of humour. He still wears his Akubra and R.M Williams boots to work every day and makes several trips back to Dubbo a year to see his mum, dad and brother. He is happy to admit his favourite Aussie beer has always been VB and has even named his children after famous cricketers. Mr Watters and his wife share two daughters and a son – Bella Bradman, 18, Lily Marsh, 17, and Sachin Yoshi who is seven. “The girls got to pick his second name and so Yoshi is the little green guy from Mario Brothers – he’s the only white Sachin.” Sadly, the couple’s older son, Benny Benaud, who would be 16, lost his battle with a brain tumour when he was just five. Now, the boy from Dubbo who has two beer brands under his belt, plans to re-establish Ballast Point as a Californian favourite and begin exporting Kings and Convicts down under. But in true Aussie spirit, he refuses to sit back to marvel at his accomplishments, preferring to believe that “fortune favours the brave”. “I’m not very retrospective or introspective. I don’t ever sit back, maybe I should? I don’t know, it’s just not my nature,” he said. “I’m not anything special. It’s just I’ve found myself in a certain spot and you know, you take some risks. “All I’ve done is take risks for the past 20 years.”

ISSUE COMPETITION CANCELLED

Drought bites as Burrendong Fishing Classic again called off By JOHN RYAN HARD on the heels of massive fish-kill events and urban water restrictions along the Macquarie River comes news that Inland Waterways’ Burrendong Fishing Classic will be cancelled for the second year in a row. Inland Waterways’ president Matt Hansen says it’s disappointing. “With Burrendong at just 1.6 per cent, it is simply not possible to hold the competition,” Mr Hansen said. “Our volunteer committee just wanted to let all our sponsors, competitors and supporters know that unfortunately we are going to have to give the comp a miss again this year. “The amount of organisation and planning that goes into an event this size, means that even if the rains do come in a few weeks’ time, the clock has unfortunately beat us,” he said. Inland Waterways is optimistic that when this drought finally breaks, the competition will be back bigger and better than ever to stage the 10th anniversary of the Easter Fishing Classic. “We have had a prosperous nine years, and the River Repair Bus, and our river health projects will keep running for many years to come, thanks to the community’s overwhelming support,” Mr Hansen said. “We sincerely thank all our sponsors and competitors, and

look forward to 2021 and the 10th anniversary of the Easter Lake Burrendong Fishing Classic. “For now, it is time to let the fish rest,” he said.

Experts gather for fish-fest MEANTIME, while fish struggle to survive, a public seminar involving TEDx style talks will be given by experts passionate and knowledgeable about fish and fishing in Dubbo on February 25, outlining issues important to fish and how local communities can help protect and enhance fish populations in the Basin. Fishing writer and television personality Steve “Starlo” Starling, Matt Hansen and Dr Martin Mallen-Cooper, who is an expert in fish ecology, were listed as presenters. Now they’ll be joined by Cameron Lay. Mr Lay has worked in the management of fish and fish habitats within the Murray Darling Basin for more than 20 years with a focus on the implementation of practical on-ground actions to enhance the long-term resilience of native fish populations. His substantive role within DPI Fisheries is the program leader of the Murray Darling, however, he is currently on secondment to coordinate the response and recovery actions for DPI Fisheries relating to the threats of drought and bushfires.

ecology and fish passage with more than 35 years’ experience in researching and delivering improved outcomes for fish. His research on the ecology of fish migration, fish behaviour and swimming ability led to the first successful fishways for native fish in Australia, and he has worked with state and federal government agencies, water au-

thorities, engineering firms, local councils, and community groups here and around the world. His work has been published widely in international scientific journals. Mr Starling needs little introduction. He’s Australia’s best-known and most prolific fishing writer, and was a co-presenter on the Rex Hunt Fishing Adventures TV

show through the 1990s. He is active in on-line recreational angling media and is also an ambassador for OzFish Unlimited, Australia’s only national fishing conversation charity. He will deliver a presentation on A Native Fish Renaissance: Chasing Murray Cod & Golden Perch in the 21st Century.

Blame game continues over fish deaths By JOHN RYAN MARK HAWKE has worked in the state’s west for decades and as a keen fisherman and observer of the landscape he’s infuriated at what he says is the failure of the state government’s water policies to protect local rivers or the fish that try to survive in them. He says recent fish kills should have been prevented by farsighted public policy rather than just pretending it couldn’t have been prevented. “After a long period of dry, (there is) decaying leaf litter and possibly residues from different chemicals and so on. Out west I’ve seen it before on the Culgoa River where it has come down in what they called a “blackwater event” and hit the Darling,” Mr Hawke said. “It starves water of oxygen but the fact remains if there was water in the dam they could maybe open the floodgates to flush the river for more oxygenated water. The government needs to put in place policies to protect own waterways and have a cut off say 25 per cent of a dam’s capacity. “To drain the dam to two per cent all for the sake of a cotton crop seems ridiculous to me,”

he said. Dubbo Photo News has learned the NSW state government suspended the dam safety upgrade fishway offset program in 2014, a commitment it made when upgrading the dam wall. According to local environmental advocates, that means vital fishways which could have been in place to enable native fish to find refuge holes as the Macquarie runs dry just haven’t eventuated, and that alone could be a factor which has exacerbated these fish-kills. Healthy Rivers Dubbo Convenor Mel Gray says it’s an appalling situation. “A deal is a deal. How is the community expected to trust a corporation like WaterNSW when they will not honour their word, even when they have a legal imperative to do so?” Ms Gray asked. “The recovery of native fish after these catastrophic fish kills is completely dependent on their ability to follow their instincts and migrate to breed, weirs block fish passage, we have a moral responsibility as a community to ask where are the fishways owed to the river. “WaterNSW sees the river purely as a commodity delivery system. It’s as if they consider

native fish a hindrance. Native fish of the Macquarie have been banging their heads against a wall needlessly since 2011,” she said. The WaterNSW response to a series of questions from Dubbo Photo News stated that recent fish deaths have not been caused by fishways or lack of them: “They are a direct result of the extremely low volume of water in many river systems, together with high temperatures and localised rainfall events washing debris and organic matter into river habitats. “State and federal government authorities have been warning for months that severe drought conditions are increasing the likelihood of the fish deaths being experienced across the state. “WaterNSW and other agencies, in particular DPI Fisheries, are working hard to avoid fish deaths and mitigate the impacts of drought on native fish species and the environment. “In 2014 fish passage projects were put on hold by the NSW Government in response to the escalating cost of fish passage offset projects.” Now, years after that promise was scrapped and millions

of fish have died, WaterNSW is talking about action: “WaterNSW was represented on the Ministerial Taskforce on Fish Passage established to identify a solution, which also included representation from DPI Fisheries, independent fish passage scientists and other stakeholders. “The objective was to explore all available funding opportunities to ensure the highest priority fish passage requirements are funded via a strategic program across the State. “The outcome is that the taskforce has developed a proposal to deliver fish passage at a reasonable cost. “As a result, WaterNSW will apply to IPART for funding within the next rural pricing determination period to allow the recommencement the fish passage offset project program.” River advocates are asking why WaterNSW has to now apply for external grant funding when the money from the offsets had been promised years ago. “WaterNSW is a profit driven corporation. This creates a conflict when projects for the public good, like fishways, need to be funded and constructed,” Mel Gray said.

Paul Stephens: WORDS OF WISDOM Interview by SOPHIA ROUSE Is age just a number? Definitely at my age it is a number. I thought my use-by date was when I turned 70. My wife died when she was young, and I thought 70 was enough but then I had an 80th birthday. I said to my children “Don’t do anything about my 90th, please don’t.� They already booked a motel and put on a wonderful party for me. I saw some of my great grandchildren (whom) I haven’t seen in a long time. It was lovely, I really enjoyed it. What about the world today doesn’t make sense? They’ll never solve it. It’s too ongoing now. They keep talking about climate change. I mean, look at the Grand Canyon. It had water in it, and it was up level to the top. I mean, that’s a climate change from millions of years ago. The world is evolving and it’s getting old but they’re robbing it of the nutrients you know, the inside of the earth. The only way is to go neutronic. Stop using coal and gases! What annoys you about the younger generation? They’re growing

too fast – they know everything. They are clever. I’m on my seventh phone, I can’t handle them. There’s a girl here and she helps me with it. She’ll say, “Oh no, not the phone again!â€? and she’ll fix it. It’s beyond me! I mean, I don’t think there’s many 90-year-olds who can use a “swipe and swipeâ€?. That’s what I call them. ••• MY father put his age up and went into the army – that’s where he met my mother. She was one of 13 children. She was dating a chap who was Australian, but she wouldn’t come out here. Anyway, she left him and got with my dad. They got married and he came home (one day) very excited with immigration papers – they were going to Australia. Poor mother... My dad came out first and went to Wollongong – he was in the coal mines. He then sent for my mother – three times she wouldn’t come, until finally her mother and sister literally threw her on the ship to come to Australia. She arrived in January in a heat wave, probably a dust storm, with English, winter clothes. She never had summer

alised that (Australia) was as home. uMy father was very munsical, he played three inmstruments. I had to accompany him on the piano.. o One year he took me to n Sydney for a competition at the Capitol Theatre. I played and he sang Beau-tiful Dreamer and wee won first prize. The next year back wee went again, and we onlyy came second. We nev-er went back again! Butt during the depression times he used to sing in the interval at the picture theatres. He was a real showman. When we were children there was nothing much. We loved to go to the picture show. It was sixpence or if you went upstairs it was ninepence. It was wonderful – all black and white films, of course. I loved the movies; I use to adore the movies. We had a group of young kids and we use to put on concerts, and I made the costumes. I was working at Mumford’s which later became Western Stores, then Grace Brothers, then Myer. While I was working at Mumford’s I was 15 and one of the girls asked if I could make her wedding gown. I said yes! I was full of it. You ask me and I’ll do it. Then someone else asked me if I could do the same thing. I met my wife and her father was a hairdresser in Dubbo so I married her so I would get free haircuts for the rest of my life. I made my wife’s wedding dress – she never paid me (laughs)! She was gorgeous! I could do it and I did, and the bridesmaids too. Strangely enough, a girl came from the paper. I was working in Western Stores then and someone mentioned I was getting married on the Saturday. So she wrote it up in the paper that I made the frocks. Saturday morning, the people that turned up to our wedding just to see the frocks... there were hundreds! I’m not kidding. My wife was terrified when she turned up to the church. Twelve of our guests couldn’t even get in

the church! Just sticky beaks... even women with rollers in their hair came just to have a look. My wife said, “Why don’t you just do sewing?� I thought it was a bit risky, but I did. I never advertised and I was usually booked out nine to 12 months ahead. I specialised in wedding gowns for 45 years. Kate’s (Middleton’s) wedding gown was very similar to the styles I was making. Sort of a bit old fashioned – lace, V-front, long sleeves and a long skirt. I still love that style. There was a woman in Dubbo who asked me if I was interested in having a display of the frocks I’d made over the years. I wasn’t really interested until she said we could do it for charity. I did it for the Crippled Children's Association. We raised about 5000 pounds. We had it in the Civic Centre and advertised it for anyone who had a frock made by Paul Stephens. It was wonderful. I remembered every damn frock! I think I’ve made more than 2500 weddings gowns. I also made swimming costumes, bikinis, street wear, day wear and all kinds of evening wear. I just loved sewing! My wife and the boys would be in watching cricket and football and I’d be in the room sewing. People say to me “Are you still sewing?� I think, my God, I can hardly thread a needle now! „

OPINION & ANALYSIS LETTERS & FEEDBACK

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

A message to young people in the face of tragedy The Editor, In light of the tragic death of the young man in the Brocklehurst accident last month, I feel compelled to pass on some words that were spoken to me when I was a teenager – many, many years ago. Firstly, my deepest heartfelt sympathy to this young man’s family and friends. I feel for you – your hearts will be broken at such a tragic loss, there are no words that can help you at this time. I did not know this young man but he was at a point in life at which he was ready to take on life and create his future. He would have been full of hopes and dreams of what was to come for him, but in one brief moment in time all of that was taken away from him and his loved ones. To all his young friends: when you go to his funeral to say your goodbyes to your mate, lift your head and look at the grief, the pain, the ago-

ADVERTORIAL

FROM THE BOOKSHELVES ] By DAVE PANKHURST, The Book Connection

NOT a day goes by without some entity telling us the state of the nation is at risk because of “climate change”. Given that the country is now in economic surplus, the media is having difficulty filling their pages and climate change would have to be a subject that helps fill the radio and TV space. The reality is that, those of us who have been around for decades know that the climate has been changing for ever. Noah had the difficult task of building an ark, rounding up the animals and getting them on board when the rain was coming. And in the Bible, examples of drought keep being indicated, given causes being the delinquent behaviour of the Israeli people. We don’t read of such causes today, even though the social behaviour and ignoring of Biblical disciplines are clearly evident. Nor do we read about the carbon monoxide contamination from the millions of cars travelling the metropolitan freeways. When we went to school we learned “My Country” by Dorothea Mackellar which she wrote in 1904 having lived on her father’s country property. There was a severe drought in 1902-3. “I love a sunburnt country, a land of sweeping plains, Of ragged mountain ranges, of droughts and flooding rains. I love her far horizons, I love her jewel- sea, Her beauty and her terror – The wide brown land for me.” And they want to tell us that there is ‘climate change’. When we pause to think about all this, one has to ask – is this all about money? Current claims about tempera-

ny on his family’s face, see what the loss of a young family member does to those who love you and when, in the future, before you go a little faster in your car, jump off that bridge, undertake anything that holds any risk, think of your mate and the look you saw on his family’s face and ask yourself: “Is it worth putting my family through this?” Let your tears fall openly. It is not a sign of weakness but allowing the pain to seep out of you. It will help you begin to heal. You will grieve his loss forever but you will learn to live with all the great memories you have of him and the times you shared. When your heart is so heavy you feel lost and desperate talk to someone, go visit his family, help them adjust to life without him, lean on each other, reach out. Don’t put that look on the faces of the family and friends who love you. There is nothing more heartbreak-

ing than the death of a young person. I lost a number of friends when I was young and I still think of them today of what might have been. Play and stay safe, young people.

You are loved and needed even by those who do not know you personally. Your life is important, your future bright. Vicky Leggatt, Dubbo

An old man, a young man, and life’s greatest lesson tures have influenced me to take a paragraph from a 2016 article I researched. It quoted records from the late 1800s. “These days we hear that current temperatures break records. It challenges current references and records against 1896 data from the January ‘Blast furnace’ that spread across the country. The death toll due to heat reached 437 in the eastern states. Reports showed that in Bourke temperatures approached 48.9 degrees C (120F) on three days. “The maximum was at or above 102 degrees F (38.9 C) for 24 days straight. Unable to sleep, people in Brewarrina walked the streets at night, thermometers recorded 109F at midnight. “On January 18 in Wilcannia, five deaths were recorded in one day.” The author of the report continues, “What I found most interesting about this was the skill, dedication and length of meteorological data taken in the 1800s – and – why is it there is so little interest in our longest and oldest data. (This data was sourced from “Australia’s first permanent weather bureau which commenced operations in 1856 in Adelaide.)” For the last month, prominent media communications have involved bushfires. Without question the devastation caused both to nature and human existence has been massive. Last week a full page of letters to the editor in a Sydney newspaper were addressed by metropolitan writers, but one in particular quoted “respecting the wealth of knowledge of our Aboriginal Australians could be reflected in heeding their advice on fire management... “Before white settlement, sustained Indigenous fire shaped Australian landscapes...” the let-

ter writer said. This motivated the selection of this particular book: “The Biggest Estate on Earth” by Bill Gammage. First published in 2011, Gammage has researched documents written since Abel Tasman and James Cook’s expeditions. In the 1800s various explorers recorded the nature of vegetation, one example being from Joseph Lycett (1775-1828) in the Wingecarribee district. Another is from explorer Leichhardt describing a similar pattern in Central Queensland: “The natives seen to have burned the grass systematically along every watercourse in order to have it surrounded by young grass as soon as the rain sets in.” Gammage summarises: “Burning every two to four years promotes perennial grasslands. Explorers Sturt, Eyre, Giles and others are also quoted in their observations of country burning. And many other examples are provided.” The key factor in the current bush fire circumstances is the failure to act beforehand to prevent it. One of the Letters to the Editor quotes, “Since 1927 my family has used cool mosaic burns over winter to manage against catastrophe – a skill first learnt by my grandparents from Indigenous neighbours at the time. But this winter I was denied an application to conduct a hazard reduction burn for part of bushland on my farm. The reason – it hadn’t been 10 years since the

last burn. No regard was taken for the fuel load...” And this is in the Wollemi area. Thirty years ago Eric Rolls wrote “A Million Wild Acres” – in this he describes the area north of Coonabarabran known as the Pilliga Scrub. In the early 1900s, bullock teams were used to pull logs from the scrub to the Baradine saw-mill. When they camped overnight, the drovers would spread some coals from their campfire around so that a few acres were burned, thus ensuring that there were safe places throughout the region should a major fire occur. In the late 1970s I visited a machinery dealer in Kunnanurra on the Ord River. He drove well out of town to a property and on the way a column of smoke was rising in the distance. “That is the Aboriginal people burning the land,” he said. So much of today’s media push could be accounted for in “Econobabble” by Richard Denniss in which he describes how to decode political spin and economic nonsense. We hear it every day when commentators use jargon to dress up their self-interest to make the absurd seem inevitable or the inequitable seem fair. We can relate this to past comments on bush burning during off-peak season to avoid the total burn-out that we are seeing now. The koalas said to be threatened then, would not be now near annihilation. The Greens movement held a protest last week, identifying that governments would not recognise climate change. We must learn lessons from those who have gone before. In mid-Janu-

ary, an early morning ABC radio coverage included a phone call from a person saying that there should not be a Royal Commission into the Bushfire catastrophes. All it would do would make more opportunity for the “fat cats” to make a mint and not solve the problems. Agree or not, the extreme conditions and the massive losses and disruptions to life at the time certainly identifies that those one in six of the working population, i.e. those working for governments, could not have been focused on reducing the growing fire risks. Those who know that climate has been changing since Noah was a boy, know that by observing the conditions, action should be taken each year (particularly late winter) to reduce fire risks. Popular reading for the last 20 years has been “Tuesdays With Morrie”. Author Mitch Albom was a student of Morrie Schwartz at university. Several years later, in Morrie’s final years, they met each week and, as the sub-title says, “an old man, a young man and life’s greatest lesson” reveals how life’s experiences can be passed on to youth without public servants introducing new laws that are not effective solutions, then poorly administrated. And having lived over many decades, the elderly can identify the reality and comparison of past circumstances of all types.

What’s your game?

] No number appears in a row or column more than once. ] Shaded (black) squares do not touch each other vertically or horizontally. ] When completed, all un-shaded (white) squares create a single continuous area.

Thumbs Up to Adam Walker from Tyreright Dubbo. I took a problem tyre to him that one of his opposition could not fix. He examined it, solved the issue, and dealt with me in a professional and respectful way. The customer service I witnessed from all staff to the other customers as I waited was amazing. Well done!

Thumbs Up to Tim at Harvey Norman Computers for his help after purchasing a laptop and having trouble connecting my printer. He was exceptionally helpful, patient and adept in his knowledge. Many, many thanks for great service.

Thumbs Up from Elsa and Harry in Ballimore to “Suzanne Grae” for friendly staff and good service, and to Central Shoe Repairs on Talbragar Street, Dubbo.

Thumbs Up to the full CPSA Committee for their excellent dedication to our group. Particular mention to Treasurer Cheryl Tonkin for her very friendly nature.

PROUD daughter Trisha Breadsell sent us these lovely “then and now” photographs of her parents, Doug and Bernadette Jump, on the occasion of their golden wedding anniversary. She thought this was a great achievement and we agree! Trisha said: “Recently my mother and father celebrated a major milestone – 50 years of marriage! Doug and Bernadette

SUDOKU EXTRA

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE

z It was famed cultural anthropologist Margaret Mead who made the following sage observation: “One of the oldest human needs is having someone to wonder where you are when you don’t come home at night.” z It’s been estimated that a million pigeons live in New York City. z When pop star Christina Aguilera is on tour, she insists on having a police escort. She hates to be stuck in traffic. z If you’re a superhero fan and ever get to America, head to Illinois where you can stop off in Metropolis and visit the self-declared birthplace of Superman. In honour of their hometown superhero, the citizens erected a 15-foot bronze statue of him on Main Street.

z It was US President Abraham Lincoln who signed into law the legislation that created the Secret Service. That very night, he was assassinated. z Those who study such things say that on the 13th of every month, triskaidekaphobia (the fear or avoidance of the number 13) causes millions of dollars in losses due to absenteeism from work and other disruptions. z More babies are born on October 5 than on any other day of the year. If you do the maths, you’ll find that New Year’s Eve is 9 months and 5 days before that.

NOW HERE’S A TIP z Here’s a tip if you handle a lot or paperwork. “If you don’t happen to have a rubber finger cover to help you leaf through papers quickly,

you can always wrap a rubber band around your fingertip to offer a bit of resistance. It’s better than licking your finger!” – R. z If you enjoy puzzles and board games but like to keep them in their original cardboard boxes, be sure to reinforce corners with strong clear tape BEFORE they start to crack and fall apart. Use hook and loop tape to secure bags inside the box cover so that game pieces will stay with the game. There’s nothing worse than pulling out a game to find that some pieces have slipped out. z “This might not be revolutionary, but if you put a tennis ball into a long sock and knot the sock, your dog will really like it. If they play with it outside, you can even put it right into the wash.” – K.R. z Remove the neck end of a soft drink bottle to create a disposable

u

funnel. Use a 2-litre bottle for a large funnel and individual drink size for smaller ones. Rinse and recycle both parts when you are finished. z Baking soda can be used as a mild abrasive to clean, but it also can help clean your teeth! Keep a small container in your bathroom and sprinkle a little bit of baking soda on your toothbrush weekly to give your pearly whites a polish between professional cleanings. z Tuck a couple of fabric softener sheets in your luggage. You can use them to combat static cling or freshen the air by placing one over the air conditioner vent. It will keep your suitcase fresh-smelling between uses, too. z Extra thought for the Day: “Show me a hero, and I will write you a tragedy.” – F. Scott Fitzgerald

...inspiring locals!

CYCLING

Old track holds countless miles of cycling excellence By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL WHEN the scraper dug its claws into the bitumen track at Victoria Park No.1 Oval last week, it uncovered a piece of Dubboâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous clubs. Beneath the frequently re-laid modern bitumen lay the granite and red earth base of a circuit where World Champion Bob Spears burned up the miles. The young champion learned to cycle on the roads around the then town of Dubbo at the beginning of last century. He set the platform for thousands of youngsters, male and female, who have aspired to and worn the colours of state and country. There is no doubt as one door closes, an-

other opens, and so it will be this weekend when Dubboâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cycling family embarks on a new and exciting leg of its journey at the world-class stadium in North Dubbo. Our photographer, Mel Pocknall, has captured the incredible flying feet of peddlers young and old for more than half a century. He was quite emotional when he went along with club stalwart Jason Farr as the crunching machine started eating up the track. It was a far slower pace than the likes of Spears, Dawson, Wheeler, Michael Martin, the Asimus boys, Megan Dunn and the brilliant crop of youngsters that has been powering around the famous track in recent years. Next week, we will bring photos of the sensational new cycling complex which will host junior state titles over the weekend.

CRICKET

Cricketers temporarily “turfed” from premier ground By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL A FEW days after the bike track was ripped up, the mechanical turf-rollers began their task of stripping the old kikuyu mixed outfields from No.1 Oval. The turf will follow the cyclists to their new complex to maintain a “heritage link” as No.1 is re-turfed with a sand-based “carpet” for future fixtures. When the state government and Dubbo Regional Council announced a major refurbishment last year, it was always going to create anxiety amongst user groups. Now the decision has been enacted, No.1 will be re-aligned to accommodate cricket, rugby union and AFL. There are high hopes that senior representative match-

es will be sourced in all three sports in the near future. History has been made at No.1 with visiting French, New Zealand, English and Papua New Guinea league and union teams as well as English and Zimbabwean touring cricketers. Indeed, in addition to some sensational cycling performances, former Australian Rugby League winger and renowned sprinter, Ken Irvine, set a world sprint 100 yards record while competing in the Dubbo Gift in 1963. The league’s leading try-scorer of all time after a brilliant career with the North Sydney Bears, clocked 100 yards (91m) in 9.3 seconds, setting a world professional sprint record. He is still the only Rugby League player to hold a World Sprint Record.

CRICKET

Macquarie gets first leg of cricket double By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL THE resurgent Dubbo Macquarie cricketers scored two meritorious wins on the weekend, both against defending premiers Newtown Tigers. On Friday night, the Christie’s Crackerjacks stole the McDonalds Megahit T20 title from Mat Skinner and his gold and blacks then backed up to win “the unwinnable” on Saturday to maintain their position at the top of the Whitney Cup ladder. Friday’s night match will be spoken about for years. Firstly, for the rather bizarre sight of the boundary marked by a pile of bitumen remnants of the cycle track, and secondly for a decision to deny the defending champs a final over with which to chase down their total. After Macquarie had set a target of 167. Newtown was on target before they were

penalised an over and six runs, leaving them 10 runs shy of back-to-back wins. The penalties imposed surprised both teams. Apparently, the Tigers had taken too long to complete their overs. First season Macquarie player, Ben Strahan, was being hailed as a trueblue crackerjack after his match-winning unbeaten 66. He received great support from Parkes’ “marquee” player, Myles Smith (38) and Ed Haylock (28) while Joe Haylock’s 3/12 and Luke Carmen’s 3/27 held Newtown to account. Dan French (61) and Dan Holland (32) did their best to chase down the target however the loss of Steve Skinner (run out) and skipper Mat Skinner (5) proved costly. Macquarie will continue their celebrations on Saturday, February 15, when the Blue boys turn Pink for a social and fundraising night. Ed Haylock smacks one to leg; keeper Dan French is left grasping at air.

Macquarie supporters were in early for a big night.

Matt Hull throws with the remnants of the cycle track piled up behind him.

Parkes all-rounder Myles Smith has enjoyed a successful first year in blue. Slow bowler Steve Skinner had a rare “off” night, proving costly (50 from 4); Ed Haylock (backing up) made 28 for the Crackerjacks.

Newtown skipper Mat Skinner captured the key wicket of Jason Green for a duck.

WATER POLO

Sisters compete at Water Polo Championships By GEOFF MANN DUBBO Water Polo Club members Eva and Abby Osborne are back in the local pool after competing in the biggest water polo event in Australia, which was held from 11-23 January. The pair was in Brisbane for the nationals, an event that attracted 3000 participants from more than 180 teams competing in under-12, -14, -16- and -18-years age divisions. Eva, 14, played for Balmain Tigers in the under-16 years competition, while younger sister Abby, 12,competed for Tamworth in the 14s. The pair has been travelling to Sydney and Tamworth since October for training and trials before heading to Brisbane. Eva has played several games in the Sydney Metropolitan 16s competitions and will continue with them for the remainder of the summer competition. “The speed of the metropolitan games is fast and provided great preparation for Eva prior to heading to Brisbane,” according to Dubbo Water Polo Club coach, Cath Osborne. Abby and Eva have had amazing opportunities locally, being mentored in the fundamental skills by three-time

Olympian Sam McGregor. “Sam is patient, supportive and continually giving the girls feedback and tips to develop their game. Dubbo Water Polo is very privileged to have the experience of Sam and appreciates his willingness to share his knowledge with our juniors,” Cath said. The AYC was a well-organised, highly competitive event, with teams travelling from all over Australia to develop their skills and team play. It was productive for Abby who was high goal scorer for Tamworth over the six days. Eva played with Balmain Tigers in the second week of the event, lining up against the top three Australian under-16 teams in her first three games. The tough draw gave the Balmain Tigers a chance to build skills quickly and learn from every game. “The quality of water polo over the week was impressive and the development of all players was visible each time the girls entered the water,” a sentiment shared by Cath and all the coaches in attendance. Sydney University was crowned National 16s champion after a tough battle against the Queensland Mermaids.

The Queenslanders went one better in the 14s, defeating Western Australian Melville Marlins 8-7 in the final seconds of the game. Another feature for Eva and Abby was being poolside when the Australian Men’s and Women’s teams played a three-test series against the USA, the last games on home soil before the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. “The Brisbane Aquatic Centre was sold out,” said Cath. “It was an amazing experience for all participants to watch some of the best water polo players in the world. The USA women are ranked number one in the world and Australian Stingers are third, so the quality of competition was fantastic. Some games were decided in the final seven seconds.” Dubbo Water Polo junior players continue to excel with Abby and Eva being joined by Declan McGregor, Sean McCabe and Hamish Wood for the trek south to Wagga Wagga for the NSW Country Clubs Championships this weekend. We wish our local players all the best and look forward to the continued resurgence of this very tough but always popular sport.

Dubbo sends a Lifeline to tradies

Another CYMS foundation member hits 90

By GEOFF MANN Back, Chelsea Ings, Eleanor WebsterHawes, Kath Bell-Pitomac, Kacie Chater, Angela Cooper and Yvette Lewis, front, Wendy Peel, Tiffany Jeffries, Kate Cowan and Mikayla Weir.

JOCKEYS, trainers and spectators dedicated last Monday to those in need of a friend and a helping hand. In what is becoming an annual event, friends of racing invited others to share food and drink and appreciate the good things in life. Mental wellness was at the centre of the meeting with plenty of information available from Lifeline and other support services. Sophia Rouse and Frances Rowley from Dubbo Photo News went along to capture some of the action... and “reluctantly” became swept up in the memorable moment.

Dressing sheds for our jockeys a feature WITH all the talk of “sports rorts” and funding for change rooms and facilities for female athletes, it’s pleasing to note that Dubbo and

most of the race clubs in the west have been well ahead of the game. Many of the female hoops were riding in Dubbo, pre-race rituals performed in the sanctity of amenities constructed in 2016!

No wonder they’re all smiles. Ironically, at a time when these jockeys are pumping out plenty of winners, Monday belonged to the blokes who flashed home first in all seven races!

By GEOFF MANN FOLLOWING our story on Ron Sheridan and his surprise 90th birthday party late last year, his fleet-footed teammate from CYMS formation year in 1947, caught up last Saturday. Des O’Connor was feted by “Shero” and John “Crackles” Meredith and the extended CYMS Old Boys family at the Castlereagh Hotel in Dubbo on Saturday. The ever-popular nonagenarian played prop when CYMS entered the Group 11 competition in 1958. Coincidentally, “Crackles” turned 91 the day before, so was joined by one of CYMS and

Dubbo Rugby League’s greatest exports, son Martin. The fleet-footed, ball-playing fiveeighth played 43 first grade matches in a 10-year career with Manly Sea Eagles in the ‘70s and ‘80s as well as winning an English Championship with Halifax in 1987/8.

New faces as Ducks splash into February THREE new Ducks swelled the Dubbo Veterans’ numbers to 26 last Sunday. Ruby Rooke, Rob Dickerson and young Connor Jackson joined regular splashers while Dick Smith also hit the water after a long absence. In fact, the long-serving Duck was rounded on as a “fox” after claiming the February monthly trophy with 0.03 off his time.

“Watch out Dick – Wherro, the ruthless handicapper, will be keeping his eye on you,” Judy Walsh remarked. It was great to have the popular life member back at the pool after a restorative stint on the coast. Judy was on hand to see “the girl Duckies” again come to the fore, with Nicole Johnstone taking out the 25m freestyle as well as a lucky number, Lilah Naden pro-

ducing a great swim to claim the 25m backstroke and Marg Ross teaming up with Bill Greenwood to snatch the Brace relay. Not to be outdone, the “Table Boss”, Dave Sparkes won the 50m freestyle according to publicity officer Judy Walsh. “Must be time to purchase some more white out, methinks,” Judy laughed. A large contingent of Ducks will

be on the road early this Saturday when the Cobar Yabbies host the Western Districts Carnival. There will be swimming as usual on Sunday morning for those not going to Cobar. Results from Sunday, Feb 2: z 50m free - Dave Sparkes, Roger Mackay (2), Brett Schloeffel (3), Laken Carrett (3), Tom Gray z 25m free - Nicole Johnstone, Laken Carrett (2), Lilah Naden

DRAGON BOATS

TRIBUTE

Dragon Boaters celebrate Vale Tony Barlow: “A wonderful man Chinese New Year By GEOFF MANN A SQUAD of 30 paddlers from Dubbo was at Darling Harbour last weekend for another spectacular weekend of sport and friendship. Crews raced eight times during the regatta, competing against five other boats in each 200m race. The Outback Dragons acquitted themselves well against coastal, metropolitan teams as well as boats from Parkes, Forbes, Bathurst, Orange and Mudgee.

“It was an outstanding weekend. We did so well – we came fourth seven times and were third in the last race before organisers called an early finish because of the heat,” experienced paddler Chris Robinson said. “When we competed nine years ago, it took us one minute 16 seconds to complete the 200m and we finished last. Now we are very competitive and we’re doing 56 seconds for the distance,” Chris said proudly. “Our youngest member is 33 and we have two new members

and the possibility of a third from Trangie will be joining us shortly.” Rhonda Betts, another of the Dragons stalwarts, says the Lunar New Year Regatta is a highlight of the year. “I’ve been paddling for 10 years and it’s just the most wonderful experience. The places you get to visit as well as the people you get to meet. We’ve made friends right across the world. It’s lovely to come to this event, it’s kind of the end of the season. “We love it... as you know,” she laughed!

THE Group 11 and Western Division Rugby League officials, basketballers and sportspeople from many different codes will gather today at St Mary’s Catholic Church, Narromine, to say farewell to one of the most-loved servants of the game and the community. Tony Barlow died last week after a brave battle with cancer. The affable giant had lent his considerable skills generously to the league and other services in a lifetime of giving. The Narromine Jets summed it up in their Facebook post on Friday: “It is with much sadness that

we advise our members of the passing of Tony Barlow. “Tony had a long association with both the Narromine Jets RLFC and the group management committee for over 20 years. He was an exceptional group treasurer for many years and doubled as an excellent minute secretary at the same time. “Tony was a Life Member of Group XI and was prepared at any time to do whatever he could for individual clubs, the group and the game itself. “Our thoughts go out to Colleen, the family and his friends in Narromine and beyond. “A wonderful man who will be missed.”

Nothing’s a hurdle for Dubbo athletes

By GEOFF MANN Photo by MEL POCKNALL CLEO Dickie is frozen mid-air while Millie Gooch has found the track and sprinting away at last weekend’s Regional Athletics Carnival. Mel’s shot captures the artistry and the determination of two of the hundreds of youngsters who travelled to Dubbo from as far afield as the Blue Mountains, Cowra, Broken Hill, Bourke, Mudgee, Bathurst, Orange and Lithgow to challenge themselves. Despite the sweltering conditions many personal best times and performances were achieved on the track and in a wide variety of field events.
