Through the mill By ERIN SOMERVILLE
Kimberly-Clark Albury Mill manager Graham Rodda. 130191 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE sure and Kimberly-Clark decision and am very hopeful we’ll be able to tailor some of that assistance funding for our region as needed,” she said. “For a variety of reasons, Aussie manufacturing is doing it tough at the moment and, given the size of the sector on the Border, we’re never going to be completely immune to those difficulties. “The Coalition has a number of assistance packages available for industry, in both metropolitan and regional areas, funding which can help companies transition towards new commercial markets or assist small and medium sized businesses find new opportunities.” While many jobs have been lost in the Border’s manufacturing sector recently, signs still point to a positive outlook for local industries. Wodonga Council’s Albury-Wodonga Manufacturing and Industrial Register for 2014 that lists 83 businesses shows the manufacturing sector is still the strongest in the Border, raking in $686 million, employing 12.8 per cent of the workforce, and investors are still drawn to its natural strengths such as its strategic location, attractive workforce, infrastructure and land availability. “All the business reports indicate a very positive feeling,” AlburyCity mayor Kevin Mack said.

Show brings back the sparkle ORGANISERS were determined that 2014 was the year of bringing back the sparkle to the Albury Show. As fireworks lit up the city’s weekend night sky, as well as local children’s faces, they certainly managed to achieve that.
The dreary conditions failed to keep the visitors away, and as thousands came through the gate, the Albury Show Society was spurred on to make next year’s event bigger and better than ever. For more, turn to page eight.
AC E PL DEMPS TE R
IT HAS been a dark few days for Albury’s Kimberly-Clark team, who were left in shock last week following the announcement that the mill will close its doors in 2015. Mill operations shut down for 24 hours on Tuesday afternoon as 44 workers were given time to face the prospect of finding new jobs next year. While it is a challenging time for the company’s employees, Albury Mill manager Graham Rodda said they weren’t alone in feeling the wrath of today’s domestic manufacturing climate. The announcement of the mill closure came just days before 120 workers walked out of Lavington’s DSI Holdings for the final time on Thursday. “It’s not just a regional manufacturing issue, it’s a national issue,” Mr Rodda said. Mr Rodda said factors such as soaring energy costs, good wages, and heavy regulation made manufacturing in Australia less desirable in a global economy. “It is hard to be competitive and still have our lifestyle,” he said. Albury’s Kimberly-Clark has many loyal and long-serving employees, with one having been with the company since it began its Albury operations in 1987. Local employees are expected to receive their entitlements when the company closes for good, which is expected after the second quarter of 2015. The closure is expected to have a follow-on impact, as around a dozen local contractors, and further businesses, will be left to fill the gap when KimberlyClark Albury eventually ceases production. Member for Farrer Sussan Ley said the Coalition was committed to creating a stronger domestic manufacturing industry, and she was pushing for further security on the Border. “I have briefed Industry Minister Ian Macfarlane on the effect of the DSI clo-

Border’s own big Brother BIG Brother could soon be watching the Border, as AlburyCity commits to taking further steps towards trialling CCTV. The $25,000 motion that was passed at last week’s council meeting will see the beginning of the initial design and specification stages for a trial system in Dean Street. But the decision for the CBD to be covered by surveillance is still up in the air. It could take council until 2015 to decide to go ahead with installing a trial CCTV system in Dean Street once the full
costs of the system are known. “This is not a commitment to installing CCTV, but rather an initial step to investigate the full costs of a system and an initial trial,” Albury mayor Kevin Mack said. “We need to know exactly how a CCTV system could be installed and operate and how much it will cost. “It’s important that we make a fully informed decision and this process will give us the facts and figures we need to understand the full picture.” Council will engage a consultant to develop initial specifications for a system trial and
then seek expressions of interest based on the specifications to determine full costs. It is expected the findings won’t be presented until next year. “Eighty-five per cent of businesses surveyed recently have told us that CCTV will make Albury a safer place and 40 per cent of residents surveyed say that they felt Albury was unsafe at night,” Mr Mack said. “Those figures can’t be ignored. “Clearly our community wants us to look at this issue, so we will begin the preliminary process.”
Police pursue stolen car locally By ERIN SOMERVILLE POLICE are continuing to make inquiries to identify a car and driver that was involved in a pursuit in the Albury Local Area Command. The pursuit began after police spotted the Nissan X-Trail, which had been stolen during an aggravated break and enter in Queensland on October 26, in the Albury area. Police identified the car just outside of Albury on Wednesday, 30 October at 12.30pm, and engaged in a brief pursuit by Albury Highway Patrol before it was terminated near Hol-
brook for safety reasons. Later that day, Wagga Wagga Highway Patrol detected the car travelling at 85km/h in a 50km/h zone of the Olympic Highway at Uranquinty. The car was pursued along the Olympic and Sturt highways before the pursuit was again terminated for safety reasons. During this pursuit a number of items were thrown from the car at the police vehicles. These have been seized and will be forensically examined. After a description of the car was broadcast through media outlets, a member of the public
reported seeing the 4WD near Canowindra. Patrols were made of the area but the vehicle was not located. The car has Queensland registration plates 555RCX, and police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page:https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information you provide will be treated in the strictest of confidence. We remind people they should not report crime information via our Facebook and Twitter pages.

IT’S the stuff children’s school daydreams are made of. A brand-new $80,000 playground has been unveiled at Jindera’s St John’s Lutheran School, and the students just can’t seem to get enough of it. The Tornado Swing, the Supernova Wheel, balance surfboards, rock climbing, a super slide, and monkey bars are just some of the exciting new features that are keeping the kids lining for a turn throughout their entire lunch break. The new playground comes following a five-year effort from parents to fund-raiser for the equipment. A final working bee last weekend to border the playground’s wood-chipped area has finalised the community’s efforts. Principal Sharon Kotzur said the playground was a highlight of the year for many school students. “We can’t get them off it,” she said. “They think it’s fantastic.” Ms Kotzur said the equipment would allow students to develop important skill such as balance, coordination, confidence, and upper body strength. The playground was guaranteed to be a hit with the children, with five students sitting in a committee to ensure the design would appeal to everyone.

War memorial upgrade from grant By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE guns of World War I may have been firing half a world away, but the Border was not immune to its catastrophic impact that rippled across the globe. Almost every corner of the region carries of a story of The Great War, and now with the help of a Federal $30,000 Anzac Centenary grant, the stories will continue to be told. Member for Farrer Sussan Ley this week announced the funding, which will see $19,404 directed to Albury City Council for World War I exhibitions, and $10,867 to City of Albury RSL to upgrade Monument Hill War Memorial. Albury Mayor Kevin Mack said the funds were greatly appreciated to help portray the Anzac spirit during centenary celebrations and events. “It is important we honour our local soldiers and their bravery during this major milestone,� he said. The team at AlburyCity are excitedly working on an exhibition at the Library Museum, which will be ready for Anzac Day 2015, and promises to be a dynamic experience. The interactive exhibition will share the fascinating and very different experiences 10 locals had of World War I, including perspectives from women, men, children, serving on the frontline, working in the UK to aide the war effort, and surviving the tough times back on the homefront. A simulatory bunker will also be created, giving residents a chance to physically experience elements on World War I. The war display currently located in Albury Council chambers will also be travelling around the region for the centenary events to areas including Urana, Greater Hume, and perhaps even Tumbarumba. Ms Ley said it was important all community members were able to participate in the centenary experience.

“The Anzac grants enable our communities to commemorate the centenary at a local level, with funding for projects which aim to preserve the stories of our local servicemen and women for generations to come.� The Albury RSL will use their funds to upgrade the approach area of the Monument Hill War Memorial, as well as the ceremonial area, which will include upgrading cabling to improve sound quality at services, and creating a symbolic cross and new plaque.

A MACQUARIE University researcher is encouraging Border residents to test their tap water after recording lead levels up to 20 times the national standard in some parts of NSW. While the PhD research investigation into tap water is only in its preliminary stages, researcher Paul Harvey said the team was looking to raise awareness rather than cause alarm, and fill a gap in statewide water testing. His team has now joined forces with the Country Women’s Association to commence a regional tour of NSW in February 2015 to determine the extent of lead and other heavy metal contamination in the state’s community centres’ tap water. “We found lead concentrations were above the national standard of 10 micrograms per litre in a couple of towns, not all in the one location, and we want to look if this is more widespread,� he said. Lead contamination in tap water can occur in a number of ways, including through water tanks, roofing material , PVC pipes, lead water pipes, and even lead fixtures in kitchens such as taps. Mr Harvey said higher lead readings have been found in some North Coast and Central West tap water samples, how-
ever samples have not yet been taken from the Border region. High lead levels can lead to health issues, with young children being particularly vulnerable, including learning difficulties and neurodevelopment issues. As well as drinking tap water, high lead intake can occur through the consumption of food cooked with at-risk water such as rice and pasta, or even through preparing baby formula. While researchers are unaware of the extent and associated health burden of such high levels, data shows there is a need to reduce the risk of lead exposure through drinking water. But causing panic is not on Mr Harvey’s agenda. “First and foremost this is about raising awareness and thinking about the issue,� he said. AlburyCity was unable to provide a response about regulation and monitoring of the town water supply at time of publication. The Macquarie University team’s 2015 project will see Mr Harvey collect a water sample at participating CWA branches’ headquarters for a lead analysis free-of-charge. Border residents can also undertake their own water sample test at a cost of $30 by contacting paul.harvey@mq.edu.au.

WODONGA Council is reminding motorists to slow down now that 40km/h speed zones in the CBD have been enforced. With the last of the new speed signs only being installed at the end of October, Wodonga Council’s director of Planning and Infrastructure Leon Schultz expected it would take some time before the city saw the benefits of slower traffic. “It will take time for people to slow down when they’ve been doing 50km/h for so long,� he said. “It certainly will be an impact that will be felt more and more as motorists become accustomed, and make it easier for pedestrians and cyclists to move around.� The changes come following a review of speed zones across the state, which created changes to allow local councils to put 40km/h zones in commercial areas and shopping precincts. Prior to the review, this move was only allowable in metropolitan areas.

Better breast detection By ERIN SOMERVILLE BORDER women now have a 40 per cent better chance of having breast cancer detected through a new 3D mammography service based in Albury. The new $400,000 state-of-theart technology purchased by Regional Imaging provides a more comprehensive image of the breast, with dozens of separate 3D images allowing the breast tissue to be examined down to a millimetre at a time. It’s a technological advance that both image specialists and patients are excited about. “For women of the region it’s a
significant investment,” said Women’s Imaging Specialist Dr Nalini Bhola. “The feedback has been really positive. “Women are very excited it can see more, and potentially detect more.” Many patients are reporting that the new mammogram is also more comfortable than the 2D x-ray version, and although it does take a few seconds longer, also reduces exposure to radiation. And while the images may be more detailed, patients don’t have to wait longer for their test results. Figures also show the new de-
vice reduces ‘false finding’ by 15 per cent, reducing the need for invasive tests such as biopsies and blood work. The 3D mammography service is the first of its kind to hit the Border, and access to the technology is bulkbilled. According to the Cancer Council, the biggest risk factors for developing breast cancer are being a woman and getting older, with 75 per cent of all breast cancers occur in women over the age of 50 years. All women aged between 50 to 74 years are encouraged to have a mammogram every two years.

A SMALL group of Wiradjuri artists have been selected to develop one of Albury’s most ambitious art projects. Titled ‘On Country Residency’, the six indigenous artists will work with the renowned Lorraine Connelly-Northey to develop a collaborative piece during a month-long residency in Albury. Their work will be included in the opening exhibition at Albury’s redeveloped art gallery in mid-2015. The artists include Albury’s Patricia Creminara, as well as Sharron Edwards, Tamara Murray, Ruth Davys, Sharon Reid, and Bethany Tomber. Their residency, supported by Arts
BBQ, cakes, Mr Icey, Trash and treasure, books Entertainment Emergency Vehicle Displays 1161569-CB45-14
New South Wales and the Aboriginal Regional Arts Fund, is designed to bring together different Wiradjuribased artists to develop a cultural and community-based piece that celebrates Wiradjuri country. Each artist brings a different skill to the project, including painting, wood-burning, weaving and sculpture. “It’s a really exciting project. It’s a group of very talented artists with very different skills and perspectives coming together to create something for Albury,” AlburyCity’s Visual Art Co-ordinator Bianca Acimovic said. “They will experiment with dif-
ferent forms and work together to help tell the Wiradjuri story. Together I’m sure they’ll be able to create something very special.” “The residency gives them the opportunity to work together for a very intense period in the surroundings that will ultimately inspire the work. It’s really important that any artwork reflecting the Wiradjuri story is created on Wiradjuri country.” Residents are encouraged to participate in the project and contribute to artwork’s development. Work was officially launched on Monday, 3 November by a community barbecue where residents were able to meet the artists.
BORDER schools are rolling up their sleeves to close in on the lead for the Red Cross blood donation challenge. As of 30 September, The Scots School Albury was placed second of 29 NSW Southern Region Schools, with 84 total blood donations from the school’s family and friends, staff, and students. Sitting just behind at equal third is James Fallon High School with 83 total donations. Albury High School, Murray High School, Wodonga Senior Secondary College and Xavier High School Albury are also placed in the top 10, proving that the Border’s school community is literally oozing with generosity. The challenge kicked off on New Year’s Day 2014, and will finish on 31 December. Local schools still have more donations to complete to take the lead from Kooringal High School in Wagga Wagga, who at the end of September had 132 donations to its name. How Albury Region Schools are performing in terms of total donations in the challenge: The Scots School Albury - 84; James Fallon High School Albury - 83; Albury High School - 65; Murray High School Lavington - 63; Wodonga Senior Secondary College - 59; Xavier High School Albury - 46; Tallangatta Secondary School - 15; Catholic College Wodonga - 9; Rutherglen High School - 8; and Trinity Anglican College Albury - 1.

presence online, while learning to minimise online risk, create official branding, and collaborate with the community. While it might seem like a simple concept, Mr Sutton said a lot of planning and time must be spent to ensure the transition and management of social media for schools was effective. “We see some schools copycat and jump on social media, but it takes time to think about the values, how to promote them and research that, and how they can be positive role models,” he said. Mr Sutton says indications show social media is working for schools, with one in the NSW’s central west region reporting a 35 per cent growth in enrolment since developing a social media strategy.
ON BEHALF of Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC), I would like to sincerely thank the Albury-Wodonga local community for their support of McHappy Day. The event, which took place at McDonald’s restaurants across the country on Saturday 18 October, has broken the McHappy Day record and raised in excess of $3.2 million nationally. To put this into perspective - this equates to over 24,600 nights’ accommodation in a Ronald McDonald House for families with seriously ill children. The money raised will allow us to continue to offer our programs and services to seriously ill children and families across the country. These programs include Ronald McDonald House, Ronald McDonald Family Rooms and the Family Retreat Program, to name a few.
The funds collected on McHappy Day will also help us with some of our future plans. In order to meet the growing need from families, RMHC is aiming to build or extend five houses, open eight more family rooms and further develop other programs such as the Ronald McDonald Learning Program over the next few years. Since RMHC began in 1981, our programs have helped over 100,000 families through some of their toughest times. None of this would be possible without the support of the local community who generously continue to donate both their time and money to this valuable cause. Thanks once again to everyone for their support, and we look forward to next year’s McHappy Day. Malcolm Coutts OAM, CEO, Ronald McDonald House Charities. 1161616-EG45-14

Crowds back fair effort By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE weekend’s cool and wet conditions failed to turn the Albury Show into a soggy affair. With organisers eager to bring back the golden days of country shows, and reduced fares working to lure families back in, Albury Show secretary Julie Walsh said their efforts had paid off. “We are really happy with how things went,” she said. “Everyone I spoke to had positive feedback, and I’m receiving positive emails. “There was a lot more enthusiams, and a lot more festival feeling.” Families and visitors enjoyed the wider range of more affordable options, including the Eronis Circus, the animal nurseries for younger children, and the exhibitions, all included in the ticket prices, and all aimed to give families more bang for their buck. New rides that hadn’t been at the Albury Show in the past also were a hit with those who weren’t afraid to part with their pocket money. While numbers were down on the drizzly Saturday morning, a popular Friday night firework display followed by a sunny Saturday afternoon meant the windy weather didn’t blow over any of the organisers’ hopes for a successful event. While numbers were similar to last year, with around 7500 streaming through the Albury Showground gates, Ms Walsh said the feedback from this year’s event has encouraged her to already look forward to next year’s show. “It’s just going to be better than ever, as we continue to build upon this year’s feedback.”

A new year of learning awaits
Hannah Dehlyia –Trainer at AWCC gets hands on with Cert IV disability students. AT Albury Wodonga Community College, it’s always a great time to make a positive change in your life. With courses for 2015 now open, there is no better time to sign up and get a head start for the new year. The college has many nationally accredited courses, that provide the sought-after skills and connections you need to get ahead, whether you’re simply upskilling, or starting the journey down a whole new career path. Best of all, the small and intimate classes at Albury Wodonga Community College mean students get to make the most of their time. “We keep our classes smaller than most other providers, which
means that there is a real oneon-one time with trainers,” said Albury Wodonga Community College General Manager Anna Speedie. The smaller classes allow trainers to identify students’ key learning needs and abilities, which assists in creating successful industry experience matches,that can lead to employment. With 40 years experience in equipping Border residents with firstclass vocational training, the team certainly knows how to create the most desirable candidates for employment. “We employ highly skilled and knowlegable staff so that we can offer our students the best trainers and resources,” Ms Speedie said. Seeing students’ successes
and ongoing training is a true testament to the effective work that is carried out at Albury Wodonga Community College. “I think the biggest achievement is knowing the students have a great learning experience, have secured a job, or are coming back to upskill and do another course.” It’s never too late or too difficult to make a difference through Albury Wodonga Community College. All ages, cultures, and experiences are welcome to join in in 2015, whether that’s to upskill, create a new career path, or to simply learn something new. Charles Hansen – He did Certificate III in Aged Care and Home Sign up today, the possibilities and Community care. He gained employment before he finished are endless. this course but has also gone on to do Cert IV in Leisure and Health to widen his employment opportunities.

Over 55’s... Murray Gardens remembers By ERIN SOMERVILLE REMEMBRANCE Day means a lot to the residents at Murray Gardens. With many having family members, or having even personally served in war, it’s a day that residents and staff put a lot of thought into. Murray Gardens’ Craft Circle has been preparing for 11 November for quite some time, and working through a few balls of yarn, have knitted beautiful Remembrance poppies to honour the fallen. While some of the poppies will be used as part of a wreath at this year’s Murray Gardens Remembrance Day ceremony, their craft is part of larger project by Delta Therapy Dogs to mark the centenary of World War I with 5000 knitted poppies. Marlene Roberts, part of Murray Gardens’ Craft Circle, said the group enjoyed contributing to a good cause close to their hearts. “We have contributed well over 1000,” she said. “An enthusiatic 90-year-old made 120 of them!” The village’s craft circle is no stranger to pulling out the knitting needles for good causes, and have created blankets for the poor in foreign countries, and for those not far away who have lost everything in the merciless bushfires. The group also is a great social
asset for many residents. “Anyone who is interested can come and join in the circle and get to meet everyone,” Ms Roberts said. “We are always getting involved in things.” As the knitted poppies quickly pile up, preparations for next week’s Remembrance Service at Murray Gardens are also in full swing. The event continues to grow in the village every year, and is especially appreciated by the more elderly or immobile who find leaving the residence quite difficult. “The services here grow every year,” Ms Roberts said. “It means a lot to residents.” Ms Roberts had her own experience with World War II, seeing her uncle serve in the army, and her father stay in Australia to contribute to the food effort. Residents recognise the work done by staff, who make it easy for them to attend such an important service without having to face the hassle of battling with hundreds of people for a parking space or standing room. “Within our community we have a lot of returned service people, both men and women, and we attend Remembrance Day with the respect and gratitude for those people who have made this country what it is,” said Murray Gardens co-manager Chiquita Walsh.

THEY opened their doors, and everyone loved what they saw. The Riverwood Open Day was a huge success, leaving many visitors wondering why they hadn’t already made the village their home. Boasting great facilities, wonderful staff, and a strong community atmosphere, it’s not surprising that Riverwood has been such a hit this spring. “The day was successful, with an enthusiastic crowd enjoying a great day and viewing nine open units,” village manager Wayne Matsinos said. “They loved the space of the village layout, the quietness, and surrounding bushland.” The open day, topped off with a lovely luncheon, saw Riverwood and its friendly community easily win the hearts of guests. Many visitors have now decided to call Riverwood home in their retirement years. It’s popularity is undeniable, with eight units having already been snapped up so far this spring. The village’s great reputation has brought in residents and visitors from far and wide, and Mr Matsinos
is not surprised that the word is getting out about Riverwood. “A lot of people had heard from their friends and relatives that they love it here,” he said. A swimming pool, bowling green, many social groups, an onsite hairdresser and shop, and restaurant that serves up delicious Sunday roasts are all big drawcards that lure visitors here, and see them stay as residents.

GROWING numbers of over55s have been seeking a different path in retirement living, with affordability, flexibility and security considered the new key decision-making drivers. Purchasing within a lifestyle park for example, whereby you purchase the home and rent the land, has surged in popularity over the past two years. Active Lifestyle Estates Regional Manager Sonya Mamouney said the park was expanding rapidly to meet the growing demand for over-55s wanting to live with like-minded people in lovely community park environments. “At Albury Citygate, residents can choose from a range of very affordable brand-new homes starting from $176,000 which are not subject to stamp duty, legal fees, exit fees or council rates,” Ms Mamouney said. “We have contractors on-site at the moment laying and paving new roads, and supplying water and electricity connections for new sites. “Next year we will expand our facilities to include a pool and a brand-new community building for social and recreational activities.” Heather Smith bought a home at Albury Citygate with her husband Graham just over a month ago, and said they already felt right at home within the lifestyle park.

You’ll wish it was your local By ERIN SOMERVILLE WITH a sprawling beer garden, a perfect country atmosphere, and lots of new and exciting additions, the Culcairn Hotel might not be your local pub, but you’ll sure wish it was. As the warm days get longer, there is no better time to step straight off the XPT or take a short drive and make the most of the beautiful spring days at this historic hotel. Built in 1891, this pub that has it all is now owned and operated by Shannon Barber, who has had ties with it all his life. His passion to make the pub the beating heart of Culcairn is evident, and with many exciting changes now happening at the hotel, now is a great time to visit. A refreshed menu has now been released to match the demands of spring and summer appetites. All the old pub favourites are still available, but those looking to take their palate on a journey can try dishes such as the exquisite summer salad, whipped up by a team of well-trained and experienced chefs.
There is also a wide range of beverages available to suit your meals. The team is about to welcome new drinks on tap just in time for summer, including the refreshing Canadian Club and dry, and a new Australian beer. Although the Culcairn Hotel is full of history, Mr Barber is now taking its historical charm into the 21st century. The brand-new Culcairn Hotel app is now available on iTunes and Google Play stores to help you keep up to date with all the latest at the venue.
It allows guests to browse the menu before they arrive, or even win loyalty rewards. The beer garden has been greatly refurbished, complete with a fresh garden, a stunning fountain, and even a fish or two to keep you company. “The grounds are a nice environment for parents to get out there, escape, and have a drink knowing their kids are safe,” Mr Barber said. With such a relaxed atmosphere, patrons will be forgiven for allowing time to quickly slip by unawares.

Hotel serves up warmth By ERIN SOMERVILLE WITH its beautiful rustic interiors, waterfront views, and the warmest of company partnered with the finest cold beers, there is no better way to see in the start of the warm spring days than at the Jingellic Bridge Hotel. Its prime position on the Murray River makes it a must-visit venue in the spring and summer, and casting out the fishing line, enjoying local birdlife, or using the boat ramp to go canoeing is never a problem. “It is a beautiful place to be,” proud owner Ian Clarke said. “We offer everything, and it really is an iconic country pub.” Established in 1925, carved over the years by local character and quirks (don’t forget to ask the friendly staff about the money on the ceiling), and proudly taking the title of the pub that sits closest to the great Murray River, you will be hard-pressed finding a more authentic high country experience. Whatever guests decide to do with their days, most will agree that the Bridge Hotel is the ideal
place on the Murray to be replenished. The hotel’s a la carte lunch and dinner bistro offers delicious, varied, and hearty meals that will sate the appetite of the hungriest and fussiets of guests. All this can be washed down with one of six frosty beers that are available on tap every day. The hotel offers clean, comfortable, country accommodation for all tastes, and is perfect for couples and families. It serves as a great base for those wanting to explore nearby areas such as Albury Wodonga, Tumbarumba, Corryong, and the beautiful Snowy Mountain region, while being able to retreat back to the wonderful atmosphere at the Bridge Hotel. Guests wanting a quieter
weekend will find it easy to stay put and pass time relaxing in the comfort of the Bridge Hotel’s warm and friendly atmosphere. There is room for the whole family at the establishment’s three-bedroom cabin, which has two bedrooms with queen beds, and one bedroom with two singles. A balcony overlooking the might Murray River guarantees you stunning and tranquil views during your entire stay for the affordable price of $160 for a couple per night, and $20 extra for each guest beyond that. Guests can stay in a smaller two-bedroom cabin, that boasts a queen bed and two bunks, for just $120 per night, plus $20 for each guest beyond that. Both cabins come with a laundry, television, lounge and dining area, kitchenette, and television. Those looking for smaller accommodation options can book the hotel’s motel-style rooms, which contain a queen bed and a single. Prices start from just $95.
Duck Inn here any old time IT’S the excited chatter of smitten guests that has people making tracks through the stunning Victorian High Country. The historic and iconic Blue Duck Inn Hotel is not the sort of place you just happen to ‘come by’. Situated at the confluence of three great trout rivers – the Cobungra, Bundarra and Mitta Mitta, its location, Anglers Rest, is a dead giveaway to the peace and serenity you can expect from this enchanting little pub. Word of not only the amazing location, but high quality, homemade food and charming cabins has travelled the world, attracting families, honeymooners, motorcycle enthusiasts, bush walkers, white water rafters, horse riders, bird watchers, fishermen and cyclists alike. “It’s a very unique environment – we don’t have mains power, we don’t have mobile phone reception, running as we did 100 years ago on a generator,” owner, Lana Antony said. The original 1900 building was a slab construction cut from local timber, which operated as

Billy O’Connell, a successful miner, bought the buildings and obtained a hotel licence in 1912, but ended up nailing a panning dish to the front of the hotel and wrote with irony, ‘Blue Duck’ (if a gold lease produces no gold, it’s known as a blue duck.) The original buildings still stand and have been joined together providing a new bar area. It is a sight to see – many of the old photos still adorning the
walls today. Finally, when you come for a meal and can’t tear yourself away from the place, pull up for a night or two in one of the six two-bedroom cabins. It’s a unique experience not to be missed.

Hip-hop ’til they drop By TANIA PHILLIPS HILLTOP Hoods are in the house or they will be soon – playing the Kinross Woolshed on Saturday 15 November. And in a move akin to taking ice to the Eskimos – they’ve just returned from a pretty successful tour of the US and Canada and are according to Suffa (aka Matt Lambert) all warmed up for a pretty extensive Australian tour. In fact by the time they reach us they’ll have played here there and everywhere from Broome to Dubbo and a lot of places in between with just five more gigs to go in what is one of their most extensive tours ever. It’s to promote their new album Walking Under Stars – it’s an ARIA chart topper already despite only being out a few months. But what else would you expect from a group with 20 years of history and the reputation as one of the pioneers of Australian Hip Hop. And they will be ready to go for Albury – performing five or six tracks from the new album which have been nicely bedded in thanks to the US and European legs of their tour. And according to Suffa the tracks and in fact all their stuff has been going down well – particularly in the US (despite having a distinctive Aussie flavor). “The crowds were amazing – beyond what we expected,” he said. “Sure, you had the ex-pat crowds in New York and LA but it was more than that.” In fact the group from Adelaide, with their distinctive Aussie flavour proved a bigger hit outside the traditional areas – playing to sell out crowds across the country. And of course in the words of their 2012 hit – I Love It – despite 20 years in the industry it’s still about hip-hop. “We love what we do!” Suffa admitted. And after those sold out tours in

Joining Hilltop Hoods on their national ‘Cosby Sweater Tour’ will be the Blue Mountain’s trio Thundamentals who have recently had massive success with their new album ‘So We Can Remember’.

Big numbers for this big number ERIN SOMERVILLE IT WAS one of Australia’s biggest music gigs, and it happened right here in Albury’s St Patrick’s School hall. Hundreds of the school’s students joined in the national ’Music: Count Us In’ project, in which over half a million students from over 2100 schools sing the same song, at the same time, right across Australia. St Patrick’s students spent some time before the live national stream practising the catchy tune ‘Paint you A Song’, complete with dance moves, instruments, and lots of smiles at being involved in such a big project. As well as students and teachers, some of Australia’s biggest names in
music joined in the song, including Casey Donovan, Cat Empire’s Harry James Angus, and actor John X. It wasn’t just St Patrick’s School who had all the fun on the Border, though, and you’d be forgiven if you thought you heard music wafting on the breeze at 12.30pm on Thursday with Xavier High School, Albury Public School, Wewak Street School, Trinity Anglican College, and The Scots School Albury also joining in. Wewak Street School combined the event with their Grandparent Day, and relieving principal Charmaine Borchert said the project was important in highlighting music’s importance and building students’ confidence. “Music is a great vehicle to teach
some of our basic skills,” she said. “It gives the feeling of success (students) can perform in front of others, and they can learn so many things, such as through the beat of the music and about rhyming.” With up to 30 grandparents joining in the on the fun, the performance was extra-special to the Wewak students, who ended up performing extra songs of the day to their audience. The aim of ’Count Us In’, now in its eighth year, is to highlight the important role that music plays in educational development. Managed by the Music Council of Australia, ’Music: Count Us In’ is supported by funding from the Federal Government.

Family favourite brings gardens alive THE second star on the right and straight on till morning leads to the Albury Botanic Gardens on Sunday. The gardens will be transformed into a children’s mystery island when Peter Pan, Wendy, Captain Hook and Tinkerbell fly to the region’s own “Neverland” at this year’s Picnic in the Gardens. The Peter Pan themed event kicks off from 10am with a wide array of free entertainment and activities for children and parents, including: roving stilt walkers, lawn twister, mega jenga, crocodile/reptile show, live music, DMB dance, Albury Wodonga Yacht
Club – sail for buried treasure and first Albury Scout Club’s catapult throwing and knot tying. “Picnic in the Gardens is a fantastic annual event that local families love. We’re expecting hundreds of people to come along once again and enjoy a great day in the gardens,” AlburyCity Team leader of events Ros Walls said. “The day is inspired by the events in J.M.

Showers of blessings in field THE skies may have opened over the 51st annual Henty Machinery Field Days, but so too did the wallets. Farmers across the region had their prayers answered when around 20mm fell over the thirsty
spring crops last week, boosting profits at the major event as well as morale. With a record number of visitors flooding in on HMFD’s opening day, and strong sales reported right across the event, the small town of

THE Albury Wodonga Islamic community fears it could soon face hostility from residents with the heavy national media focus on Islamic terrorists. The comments come from Islamic Society of Albury Wodonga president Yakub Muhammad who spoke to the Albury Wodonga News Weekly following anti-terror raids on Islamic homes across Australia and a ramped-up national committment to fight the Islamic State, or ISIS. Mr Muhammad said the constant recent media coverage of a small percentage of Islamic extremists, who he said the peaceful local community condemn, threatened to create a fear mongering mentality against all Muslims, particularly in regional Australia. “Regional areas tend to cop it the most because there isn’t as much education or exposure to Muslims,� he said. “All of a sudden people can see someone with dark skin in a turban or Islamic costume or with a head scarf on, and I have specifically seen here some people get scared and some get angry.�" Mr Muhammad, Yakub Muhammad. who has lived in Albury for 27 years, said his sister and wife have recently been abused in a car park by a man for wearing hijabs (scarfs that cover the hair) and were left feeling shaken and too afraid to continue their shopping. His friend’s wife has also reported being abused by a man in Lavington shopping centre for wearing a niqab (veil that covers the face and shows only the eyes), and said she had to publicly defend her decision for wanting to wear one for religious reasons. Mr Muhammad said he is concerned about the effect current international events and media coverage will create, particularly on Albury Wodonga’s approximate 300 Muslim residents. “I’m just waiting to get more abusive calls, I think they are coming big time,� he said. “Islam is about peace, not violence or beheadings, that’s not Islam� he said. Mr Muhammad said he is making an effort to open the doors of the local Muslim community to residents who have any questions or are curious, including holding open days.

DOMESTIC violence should not remain behind closed doors. This is the message local police and support workers are shouting across the city following a rise in reported cases this year. The latest Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research report shows 50 extra cases of domestic violence were reported in Albury during the 12 months to June, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The 19 per cent jump means Albury’s latest domestic violence count stands at 310 incidents. With staff at the Women’s Centre for Health and Well-being Albury Wodonga seeing more than this number of women every year, it is almost certain this is only a small fraction of incidents occuring behind closed doors in the local government area. “The statistics don’t reflect how many women and children suffer from domestic violence,� the centre’s health promotion worker Peta Pitman said. The incorporation acknowledges women can occasionally be the instigators of domestic violence themselves, but statistics show the crime is most often committed by males. The centre works with local residents to help them escape domestic violence situations, and provide them with knowledge, options, and support. Many women seek assistance anonomously. “For us, it’s all about wanting women to be safe,� Ms Pitman said. “We work with experts to support them in what way is right for their individual situation.� There have been suggestions that the rise in domestic vioence reports could be a positive indication that it is no longer a crime being kept secret. “In terms of that, we are seeing more confidence with victims report-

THE Border’s music scene is not being given a proper chance to be heard, say local artists. The comments come after NSW Police Minister Michael Gallacher stated earlier this month that the live music industry was dead thanks to the closure of music venues. Local artists say the music scene is well and truly flourishing behind closed garage doors on the Border, but finding avenues to perform live can be tricky. Many local acts find it necessary to travel out of the region and to major cities to showcase their hard work. A heavy emphasis on DJs and pop music culture through programs such as The Voice and X Factor has also been detrimental to up-and-coming musicians, with audiences constantly demanding more than a stripped-down, talented performance, Border artists said. Albury band Midnight Alibi’s singer James Oswald is one of many musicians who spoke to the Albury Wodonga News Weekly, and is eager to see more support for live music. “The music scene here is better than what people think,� he said. “In the last five years there have been that many people starting bands and playing. “There is a lot of need to have a platform to showcase the work.� With many venues preferring to hire cover bands or DJs, some local artists say they feel pushed out of the scene on the Border. “We have both a vibrant music scene with lots of local talent but it is being squandered by the lack of a dedicated live music venue who regularly have bands on,� local musician and sound engineer Jake Mannik said. Local bands say they face further obstacles when they do secure some local stages, having to fork out for a sound engineer and security if none are already provided at the venue. For

as ‘Indi expats’, had full knowledge of the fraudulent conduct and even encouraged it. No evidence has been put forward that Ms McGowan knew of this conduct. Ms McGowan’s media adviser has stated that she will not be making further comments on the incident at this stage. Meanwhile, Voices 4 Indi president Alana Johnson said the group had not yet been contacted by the AEC and denied endorsing fraudulent voting. She further outlined concern that the investigation could deter young voters from heading to the polls. “We only know what we’ve read in the paper, we’ve not had any contact from the AEC,� Ms Johnson said. “Many rural young people leave home to study, travel and work, they are often transient and their family home remains their permanent address. If young people’s place of enrolment is an issue for Indi, then it is an issue for rural electorates across the country. “Any clarification and improvement the AEC can make to the enrolment process that encourages and helps young people to be involved will be welcomed.� Meanwhile, the AEC was unable to outline the consequences for Ms McGowan’s political future if the investigation ruled her campaigners submitted fake votes, but said findings would be released shortly. Acting Electoral Commissioner Tom Roger, who was last week tasked with examining enrolment details, said he was taking the matter very seriously “I have asked for the AEC examination to be given the highest priority,� he said. “These investigations are continuing at the present time. Once the task is completed - which I expect to be soon - if there is any doubt at all regarding the enrolments, I will take further steps, including, if necessary, referral to the AFP.�

INDEPENDENT Member for Indi Cathy McGowan says she fully supports an investigation into electoral fraud after claims many Indi voters in the 2013 Federal Election supplied incorrect residential details. While Ms McGowan stated earlier this week that she had not yet been contacted by the Australian Electoral Commission, she highlighted in a public statement that she welcomed any queries they might have. She first heard of the allegations on Friday. “It’s important the Australian people have the utmost confidence in the AEC and electoral process and I know they will undertake an extensive and professional investigation,� Ms McGowan said. “But we must be mindful these are allegations, so let’s wait and see the results before making a judgement.� Ms McGowan won the seat of Indi in a surprise 439-vote win over Liberal candidate Sophie Mirabella last September through a strong grassroots campaign known as Voices 4 Indi. It is now believed many voters were no longer living in the area at the time of election. The AEC’s new integrity unit is reportedly investigating over 20 potentially fraudulent enrolments by McGowan supporters, whose Indi enrolment addresses fail to correspond with their home addresses in other seats, previous enrolment information, and social media information such as on Facebook and LinkedIn. Ms McGowan agrees that the unlawful declarations should be fully investigated. “An enrolment is a declaration made by an individual to the AEC and it is up to the individual to ensure it is accurate and lawful,� she said. Allegations have surfaced that McGowan campaign workers, referred to

On holiday every day AT Brushbox Street, Lake Hume Resort, every day is a holiday. Both 17 and 11 Brushbox Street are on the market in this slice of heaven on the Hume, opening up endless possibilities. Whether you’re an investor, looking for a tranquil place to spend time in retirement, or even create a new home, these cottages lend themselves to all possibilities. Both timber homes offer spacious living lounge areas, complete with reverse cycle climate systems to keep you cool on the stunning summer days by the weir, or cosy when winter begins to nip. The separate kitchens are surprisingly roomy, and even come with built-in breakfast bars and a casual dining space. The bathrooms are of a good standard, and have built-in bathtubs, shower, and a separate toilet. The master bedroom has plenty of room, and the two re-

maining bedrooms are generous in size and offer a comfortable space for children, friends, or guests whether they’re simply holidaying, or staying a little longer. A large storage cupboard also helps alleviate any congestion in the cottages. The best thing about the homes though is what lies on the outside. Boasting both front and back decking and verandahs, there is no better place to soak up the great outdoors on the foot of the sparkling Lake Hume. Cast a rod, go for a water ski or swim, cruise about in the
boat, and simply amble back up the bank to relax in your cottage when you’re done. Best of all, a carport area means there is always space for a boat, anytime of the year. When village life gets a little too quiet, the snowfields and North East wineries are only a short drive from the cottages, and Albury Wodonga is just 10 minutes away. With good returns, access to a licensed restaurant and bar, and maintenance being carried out by the resort, these Brushbox locations are too good to pass up, no matter the reason for their use.

FOR LEASE
Median of interest HOME ownership is often called the great Australian dream and with more than two thirds of the nation owning their own home, it’s no surprise that we have a huge interest in all things property-related. What is our home worth? Is its value increasing? Where is the biggest capital growth? One measure of house prices commonly quoted is median prices. It’s easy to assume this is the same as the average price, but the two are different. The median price is the middle price in a list of sales. For instance in a list of 11 prices, the sixth price would be the median. If there is a list with an even number of prices, the middle two would be averaged to obtain the median. A bigger list of prices provides more data for reaching a median value. Every three months when REIV analysts calculate the median house price for areas across Victoria - which takes in about 200 regional shires and townships - they also note which regions had fewer than 50 sales in the quarter.
The latest median prices for the quarter ended 30 September are now available region by region on the REIV website. This information is a useful starting point when buying or selling. Medians are based on the sales data reported to REIV from real estate agents. They can be used to compare prices between different townships and suburbs in regional centres, and comparisons over a year or more can show whether prices in an area are rising, stable or falling. The median price is a tool for house hunting, not valuation. Factors such as a home’s quality, its location and proximity to roads, transport and vital services will determine its precise worth. Local factors such as employment opportunities within the region will also have an influence. Median prices are less affected by the highs and lows of sales than average prices. However an exceptional quarter, with lots of high sales for example, can impact on a median.

Culture comes through SPORT speaks a global language, and the newly formed Punjabi Heritage Association’s message spoke to everyone as they introduced a bright streak of multiculturalism to the local sporting sector. The group’s first annual Raunak Mela, held at Alexandra Park on Sunday, allowed members to proudly showcase the traditional Punjabi sports, as well as many other aspects of their culture. “The association wants to make a collective effort to promote Punjabi language, sports, art and culture in Albury Wodonga,” member Harneet Gill said. “Our endeavour is to focus on collaboration and communication between different cultures." Australia’s diverse migrant communities have brought with them food, lifestyle and cultural practices, which have captivated Australians. “Interactions of cultures provide opportunities for the cultural differences to communicate and interrelate to create multiculturalism.” The day saw some new and exciting events on showcase, including Kabaddi, a 4000-year-old contact team sport, Gatka, which is a traditional form of combat training using wooden sticks, Pithoo, a child’s game invloving knocking over stones, and the tag sport Kho kho. As well as sport, the Punjabi culture was showcased through Bhangra and Gidha dances, and food stalls.

White-wash leaves Raiders reeling from second innings By JAMES McNEIL A STUNNING second inning spell from East Albury’s Cameron White has been the catalyst for the Crow’s outright win against Wodonga Raiders on the second day of Round three in Cricket Albury Wodonga Provincial First Grade. White tore through the Wodonga Raiders line-up late on day two to provide East Albury with a rare outright win. The right-arm medium-paced bowler picked up 4/43 as East Albury dismissed Wodonga Raiders for 171 in the first innings and followed this up with the astounding figures of 6/18 off a 12.2 over spell from his favoured Southern end at Alexandra Park. Kris Milosta also chimed in with match figures of 5/21 off 17 overs but it was White who stole the show. Not only did he end up with six wickets for the innings, he took 10 wickets for the match and finished the game off with a hat-trick. White had an attempt at a hat-trick at the start of the second innings but was unsuccessful, but got things right the second time around.
It was his first hat-trick and to make it all the more special it was unassisted as all three batsmen were dismissed bowled. “It’s something I haven’t achieved before, it just all fell into place on the day and overall it was a great day for the team and the club with second grade winning outright as well,” he said. After being 0/69 overnight the Crows made their way to a declaration at 4/321 in the 65th over. Youngsters Caleb Barras (47) and Nick Hanlon (69) got East Albury off to a flyer with an opening partnership of 117. The Crows continued to accelerate through the middle order with James McNeil (100no) and Chris Bridle (46no) putting on an unbeaten stand of 142 in the last 11 overs of the Crows innings. This left East Albury with 36 overs to bowl Wodonga Raiders out whch proved enough with Wodonga Raiders bowled out for 55 in 24.2 overs with Daniel Perri top scoring with 32. A century to Grant Wells (102) has saved the Albury Titans from defeat
and handed them a four-wicket victory over New City. Reeling at 6/96 an in-form Kade Brown (78) came to the wicket and he and Wells put on 136 to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Chasing 194, Albury made hard work of it early as Doulton Langlands (3) and Darcy I’Anson (4) claimed early wickets with Nicholas Morris (37) the only top order bat for Albury to provide resistance. Leg spinner Callum Langlands also took three wickets but it was not enough to get New City home as Albury finished all out for 289. In the rematch of last year’s washed out grand-final Wodonga again took the points. St Patricks had the task of chasing down 243 due to half centuries from James Tonkin, Trent Ball and Robbie Jackson. St Patrick's struggled to find answers for scoring options as Will Elwood top scored with 32. James Tonkin (3/51) and Daniel Dixon were the main contributors with Dixon bowling 16 overs for the figures of four for 22 including eight maidens. St Patrick's ended up being bowled out for 155 in reply falling 88 runs short. Belvoir provided the upset of the
round taking the points at Kelly Park against Lavington. An inspired spell from spin-twins Zac Simmonds and Ryan McNeil was the catalyst behind the victory to the Eagles. Between them McNeil and Simmonds bowled 45.4 overs and took seven wickets for 98 runs, with McNeil claiming 4/48 off his 23 overs including nine maidens. With skipper Sam Harris absent, the Panthers struggled for answers with Sam O’Connor the only batsman to pass 20 going on to compile a classy 77 as Lavington were dismissed for 156 in reply to Belvoir’s 219. An unbeaten century to North Albury keeper Craig Taylor has steered the Hoppers to victory against Tallangatta from what seemed like an impossible position. The hoppers needed runs from both Taylor and Daniel Athanitis (29) as they were 7/87 overnight. Taylor batted at nine and ended up with 101 not out as he and Athanitis put on 92 to take the Hoppers past Tallangatta’s total without the loss of a wicket. Brandon Purtell and Paddy Murray then score 33 and 23 respec-
tively to take the Hoppers to 297 on a day where they put on 210 for the loss of just two wickets. In other news, the T20 CAW charity big bash is on again in Albury where games will be played under lights at LPO. Held at the Commercial Club, an auction was carried out with four teams bidding to get their hands on the best talent from the Riverina. Linde, 2AY, Insight Clinic and Tradelink are the sponsors of the four teams with all proceeds going to the James McQuillan Future Fund and the Albury Cancer Clinic in honour of Braedon Hensel. The first round of games is on 14 November. In representative cricket this coming weekend, the CAW T20 side will take on Tuggeranong and Queanbeyan in a double header. The CAW Stars will play at LPO on the Saturday night and at Billson Park on the Sunday in a bid to continue their Konica Cup form from previous years where they have finished premiers and runners-up. A huge weekend of cricket gone and an even bigger weekend coming up on the border as cricket season well and truly gets into the swing of things.

Doug Winter (Albury Wodonga Yacht Club) competed in green fleet and open competition in the Optimist class. Pictures: ADAM WILSON Pathway Classes of sailing boats, such as Laser and 420, which serve as feeders for classes destined for the Olympic Games. Most top level competitors are required to attend Country Sail to earn points needed to qualify for higher

‘Race of truth’ in earnest By Craig McMillan LAST Sunday’s second round of the Albury Wodonga Cycling Club Championship saw Bended Elbow riders fill the three podium spots in the A Grade Individual Time Trial event. The 18km time trial sees each rider leave individually and race against the clock for the fastest time. Cyclists often refer to this event as the “race of truth”, as cyclists compete individually with no drafting behind other riders permitted. Sunday proved no different, with the top riders showing their strength to post solid times. The Individual Time Trial is an opportunity for riders to challenge the laws of aerodynamics and cycling regulations, and ride the purposebuilt speed machines. Seconds matter in a timed speedrace, so Sunday’s event witnessed every possible advantage in aerodynamic position, speed suits and helmets, high rolling momentum carbon disc wheels and bikes, to beat the clock. Cycling regulations ensure the riders’ position is aerodynamic, but also maintains reasonable control of the bicycle. A strong field assembled to race over an undulating 18km course on Plunkets Road. Sunday’s conditions proved challenging with cool blustery winds slowing riders on the longer 12km outwardleg to the turn. The final 6km return leg to the finish witnessed speeds of over 60km/h as riders took advantage of the following wind. Wangaratta rider Tully Lyster proved too fast in the conditions, recording the fastest time of the day, taking just 25 minutes and 22 seconds to cover the 18km course. The first Albury Wodonga rider was Angus Harris of the Bended Elbow Team, claiming the Club’s Individual Time Trial Championship. Close behind in the next two spots were Charly McMillan in 26.27 and Declan Gregory in 26.38, enjoying a solid hit it in their build up to the Australian Titles in January. The B Grade was taken out by Neil Sawyer in 28.50 and the C Grade winner sees the return of Lindsay French to competitive cycling, recording a time of 31.25. Going into the last round of the championship, a circuit race in Baranduda, Angus Harris holds a three-point lead over Declan Gregory in the three round event. With 10 points available for the final win, the title of Club Champion 2014 is still wide open.
failed to secure strong results on the day, the successful event still left them with a feeling of optimism. "None scored good results, but all competitors performed really well in the tricky conditions." The Victoria State Emergency Service (VICSES) and Australian Volunteer Coast Guard (AVCG) supported Sail Country, providing experienced personnel and rescue boats to ensure the safety of competitors who took part in the two-day event.

CLOUDY skies, a westerly wind combined with a little bit of rain created the ideal conditions for 130 sailors to rise to the challenge of the Sail Country regatta on Lake Hume. The inaugural two-day Sail Country regatta held over the weekend incorporated the Victorian Dinghy Championship, marking the first time the event was held outside of Melbourne, as well as sealing Lake Hume’s sailing reputation. “It was a very windy Saturday, and the west wind can be very challenging, but it’s a good opportunity to develop skills,” Albury Wodonga Yacht Club Commodore Stuart Richardson said. “We expect elite levels to come back here for training.” The conditions proved so impressive that the Victorian Laser and the International Optimist Dinghy team stayed behind after the competitive events ceased to carry out further training. With many competitors having travelled as far as Sydney, Melbourne, and even South Australia, Mr Richardson said the club was eager to continue putting Lake Hume on the sailing map and hoped to lure up to 200 entrants next year.The Victorian Dinghy Championships included manty of the Youth
