Albury Wodonga’s largest circulating newspaper
Healthy election result A total of $63.5 million has been directed to three health centres in the Albury electorate for new buildings and upgrades. The announcement was made by Liberal Member for Albury Greg Aplin last week, who guaranteed the money if his party wins the upcoming state vote. SEE PAGE 4 FOR MORE DETAILS
Our flag of the selfless By ERIN SOMERVILLE SOME of the Border’s most valued, hard-working, and selfless citizens were recognised for making the region’s cities and communities a better place to live at this year’s Australia Day ceremonies. The Wodonga community faced the morning dew that carpeted Les Stone Park on Monday to congratulate the city’s Citizen of the Year Ian Elston, while Albury residents gathered by the mighty Murray to cheer on their Citizen of the Year Margaret Whittaker. Both residents were recognised for their strong commitment to building better communities over many dedicated years through hard and often-unrecognised work and volunteering. Mr Elston is one of Rotary Club of Wodonga Central’s longest-serving members, and this year became the club’s president. He has also served with the Salvation Army’s Red Shield Appeal for 30 consecutive years, been a longserving Justice of the Peace and is involved in JP training and volunteering, volunteers on the Felltimber Community Centre Advisory committee, the North East Water Community Consultative Panel, and helps raise funds for the Anglican Church. “I don’t consider my volunteering service anymore a contribution than what 100,000 people out there are doing every day,” he said. “It has been a big part of my life for 30 years.
“It has given me much pleasure and camaraderie in this community.” Mr Elston said his passion for volunteering was spurred on by the warm welcome he received from the Wodonga community when he and his young family arrived to the city in 1975; a welcome he still has not forgotten. Across the Murray in Albury’s Noreuil Park, Ms Whittaker was very humbled and surprised to have received one of the city’s highest honours. “It’s a great honour but I didn’t think I had any chance,” she said. Ms Whittaker has taken a leading role in founding and managing the St John Ambulance service in Albury for the past 30 years, and has taught over 4500 students first aid in the past 24 years. Her commitments also extend to the city’s sporting sector, and Ms Whittaker can often be found coaching and umpiring netball. She also plays a role in netball state selections as a committee member. Ms Whittaker also gives her time to primary age children with reading difficulties and provides assistance with school immunisation programs. “I just love doing this and being involved in the community. “I encourage everyone to volunteer.” For a list of more Australia Day award winners turn to page three.

In tune for music skills
Jake Foster.
By ERIN SOMERVILLE A LIFETIME love of music has seen Albury’s John Ross recognised on the Australia Day Honours list for his dedication and efforts to the field. Mr Ross received a Medal of the Order of Australia award (OAM). He has spent more than 40 years helping make and shape music in Australia with an extensive resume showing just some of the contributions he has made. Mr Ross was honoured to see he had been recognised. “It was a delight and I feel honoured to have helped in some way develop musical skills in the community.” Mr Ross came to Albury in 1982 from Goulburn as the Director of Riverina Music Centre and was also a senior lecturer in music education with Charles Sturt University. Students may also recognise him from their examination days having worked as an examiner with the Australian Music Examination Board. Mr Ross’s passion for music never faded over the years, and he took out first place at the International Hymn Search of the

He has also served as Director of Music at Albury’s St Matthew’s Church Choir from 1991 to 2000 and 2009 to 2013. With so many achievements under one belt, it is no surprise Mr Ross has received a nod for his efforts this Australia Day. Picking memorable mo-
ments from four decades of achievement can be a difficult task but Mr Ross did manage to find a few. “I enjoyed conducting Handel’s Messiah three or four years ago at St Matthew’s,” he said. Mr Ross also noted playing concerts as a pianist with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra as a highlight of his career.

The $63m man By ERIN SOMERVILLE
MEMBER for Albury Greg Aplin has promised two local shires over $63 million to upgrade their hospitals if the Liberal Government is re-elected in this year’s state election. A $30 million slice of the share would go to Tumbarumba’s MPS (Multi-Purpose Service) to create a new facility or upgrades, $30 million would go to Culcairn MPS for new buildings and upgrades, while $3.5 million would be received by Holbrook for the extension to existing aged residential care. Mr Aplin made the announcement last week at Culcairn MPS and guaranteed his government would be providing the funding for the promise if elected. “It’s important to remember this electorate covers a vast area across regional NSW,” Mr Aplin said. “Planning has already started. “We know we have to plan for the future.” Consultation has begun with stakeholders in the shires to determine the needs of the medical facilities. Upgrades or new buildings could accommodate emergency care services, more inpatient beds, palliative care, aged residential care, or other specialised services. With planning expected to begin next month, Mr Aplin said this was not a flimsy preelection promise. “This is going to happen

and it’s going to be delivered.” Great Hume Shire mayor Heather Wilton was present at the announcement, and said the funding was warmly welcomed by residents. “What we have at the moment is inefficient and fails to meet the needs of the community,” she said. “We don’t think we’ll hear any negative response with this move, it will be providing fantastic facilities to this town.
“We have a lot of surrounding towns like Henty and Holbrook, and we welcome this news.” Planning for all three projects is expected to be completed by mid this year. The funding comes following Health Minister Jillian Skinner’s announcement that the NSW Government would be investing almost $5 billion in the redevelopment of hospitals and health facilities in its first term.

Fighting the poverty of the Philippines By ERIN SOMERVILLE AFTER spending most of January uncovering the extensive poverty of the Philippines, Ciara Teefey has never felt more lucky to be Australian. Ciara, who is a Year 12 student at Catholic College Wodonga, had dreamed of helping the poor in the Philippines through the Bethlehem Day Care Centre since she was just 10 years old. With the help of a Father Les Ring Scholarship, support from Wodonga Council, and hard work and saving, Ciara has been able to achieve her dream and donate $500 to the organisation, as well as her own time. Trouble in paradise is what the 17-year-old arrived to on 1 January, as she touched down in the city of Cebu. There, children and families live in slums and on garbage tips, with little access to nutritional food or education. “Cebu is a normal city like Melbourne, but then you have poor everywhere.” “You have so many beggars and then right next door are big shopping malls. “When I was there I could not think why anyone would go there on a holiday.” Through her volunteer work, Ciara helped around 170 underprivileged children from as young as three receive an education that normally wouldn’t be possible. The school also provided hot meals like meat and rice, and clean water and milk to the students. It was difficult for the children
Ciara Teefey volunteering in the Philippines. 133676 not to steal Ciara’s heart. “I’m now sponsoring a child called Jarius who is half-Filipino half-American; his dad left and went back to America. “He gets no support. “If someone is privileged enough to live in America or Australia they should be able to give some support. “He used to get (to the school) early and I really took him under my wing.” The experience has stoked Ciara’s passion for helping those in need, and made her question Australia’s role in assisting the thousands of helpless people around the world. “It made me feel really lucky but also a bit guilty. “We have the room, we have the resources to help people like this. “It has pushed me to do more.” Ciara now plans on visiting the school again at the end of 2015 to continue lending a hand when and where she can.

A career of caring By ERIN SOMERVILLE FOR the past 30 years, Sharon McMahon’s smile and positive attitude has been a favourite among staff and residents at Albury and District Private Nursing Home. As Monday marked her three decade milestone with the organisation, Ms McMahon was able to take time and reflect back upon the years that have quickly passed. “It’s just an honour to be here,” she said. “It has taught me empathy, understanding and compassion. “I just thank (Albury and District Private Hospital) for the opportunity and chance to make me the person people see me as today.” Ms McMahon first began working at the home on Australia Day 30 years ago when she took on the role as a kitchen hand for some extra cash while she was raising a family. From peeling spuds and wash-
Sharon McMahon celebrates 30 years of dedicated service 133571 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE ing dishes, she relieved cooking and kitchen duties for over 14 years, before moving into the home’s laundry and lifestyle department.
She spent 15 years in that role, before taking on the job of lifestyle assistant six months ago when the home moved location.
On top of all that, Ms McMahon has also spent the past 20 years heading the fund-raising committee. “At the start, we didn’t even have a dishwasher,” she said. Ms McMahon has seen an evolution in the way aged care runs in the time she has been working in the sector from protocol and procedures through to technology and facilities. As rewarding as the job is, Ms McMahon said there can be tough days in the tight-knit community. “The loss of a resident is hard,” she said. “We had a resident die 25 years ago, and I still have contact with their family. “We’re a real family.” After 30 years, Ms McMahon is still just as passionate about the job and is completing a Bachelor of Social Services and Welfare through Charles Sturt University. “I get so much job satisfaction.”
Market is seed of food swap FOR those who are buried up to the eyeballs in silverbeet, have already made a dozen jars of tomato relish, or have nectarines carpeting their lawn, it’s time to put their excess food to good use. Healthy Together Wodonga is proud to launch the city’s weekly backyard produce swap, where visitors can swap all their excess fruit and veggies for produce they really need. Whether it be some carrots for some herbs, flowers for seeds or apples for pears, producers can barter to their hearts’
content while saving food wastage and time. “It’s not just about produce but is also starting a conversation about where food has come from,” Gateway Health’s promotion officer Brydie Foran said. Ms Foran said the event would help people to understand that healthy food is available in a variety of very affordable ways. “It’s becoming more of a buzzword, this healthy and local eating, and the whole northeast is into the whole idea of
sourcing locally.” The markets are held each Saturday from 11am until noon until 21 March at the Wodonga council offices in Hovell Street. The produce swap will be informal and based on an honesty system, where people can put their produce on a table and share it, or exchange it for something they feel is a fair trade. People who would like more information on the swap can contact Ms Foran on (02) 6022 8888 or at brydie.foran@gatewayhealth.org.au.
Gateway Health’s promotion officers Brydie Foran and Anna Mackinlay with Georgia Reed encourage local gardeners to come and swap their excess produce. 133445 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE
Drink drivers won’t stop POLICE say they are disappointed with drivers over the Australia Day long weekend after several people were found to be drink driving or not wearing seatbelts. A total of 10 drivers were caught driving under the influence of alcohol while a further 10 were found not to be wearing their seatbelts. Albury Highway Patrol Sergeant Matt Zemaitis said the figures were concerning. “The first thing people should do when they get in the car is put on their seatbelt,” he said. “It’s a driver’s responsibility to ensure their passengers and children are properly restrained. “People need to take that extra bit of time before they drive, if they get in an accident it could be very serious.” The number of drink drivers over the holiday period also has police worried with two high range, four mid-range, and four lowrange readings being recorded in and around Albury. Early Tuesday morning, police conducted a breath test on a 36-year-old Border resident at about 1am on Kaitlers Road in Lavington. He returned a blood alcohol reading of .167 and his licence was immediately suspended. Meanwhile, a heavy police presence did not deter one driver who took to the road with a high range PCA of .290 during the day. The 54-year-old Albury man was caught on Lavington’s Kaylock Road just after 1pm on Sunday. His licence was immediately suspended. Both offenders will face Albury Court House. Police conducted 5127 breath tests in the Albury Highway Patrol area over the long weekend, while a further 84 vehicles were detected speeding.

Regions get a move on By ERIN SOMERVILLE
JUST how fast are regional areas such as Albury moving? That’s the question that will be on everyone’s lips as the Border’s Murray Now Ltd gears up to host a two-day knowledge forum to examine the challenges and attributes of regional Australia. Transport and infrastructure, rail, decentralisation, water security, internet and Asian relations are all issues that will be put on the table as the forum aims to strengthen regional areas and their investment opportunities. The forum will be a great opportunity that the Border should seize upon, said Murray Now events co-ordinator Nicole Doughty.
DENTURES BY DESIGN
“Regional conferences don’t happen in regional areas much anymore,” she said. “There’s not enough of them and there are not enough to raise important points of what’s going on with Australia and our regional areas.” Agribusiness, corporations, whole-of government, education providers and even curious residents are expected to benefit from the issues that will be raised in the forum. Networking opportunities will also be provided. “It’s an opportunity to put different heads from individual roles together,” Ms Doughty said. “You never know what can come out of the forum.” Albury Wodonga News Weekly will be featuring a series of stories with experts in the weeks leading up to the event examining how well regional areas such as Albury Wodonga are moving in a number of sectors. The forum will be held on 12 and 13 March at the SS&A Club, Olive Street, Albury.

The Girl Guides in Wodonga are looking for someone to take on the role as their Picture: ADAM WILSON leader. 133650
Guides look for leadership By ERIN SOMERVILLE IT’S a case of too many indians and not enough chiefs at the Wodonga Girl Guides as a surge of new members leaves the group short of leaders for 2015. The number of leaders has jumped from three to seven in just the past 12 months and there is still a desperate need to attract more adult volunteers as the Guides aim to create two more units in order to be able to accept girls between the ages of seven and 18. Failure to lure more leaders will mean that girls who want to join Girl Guides will have to face a waiting list. “We don’t like having
waiting lists as that means some girls are missing out on opportunities that guides provides,” said District Manager for Wodonga Girl Guides Andrea Weppner said. Tracey Cooper is just on Leader in Charge at Stoneleigh Wodonga Girl Guide Unit and said the volunteer role is very rewarding. “I have two daughters in the junior Guides and I was happy to see what they were doing and just enjoyed seeing them grow and the fun they were having,” she said. “I think (the highlight) is the rewards you get and it doesn’t take a huge amount of your time.
“It’s just great fun and there’s always lots of laughter.” While the sky-rocketing popularity of Girl Guides has created a leader shortage, Ms Weppner was encouraged to see such an interest in the movement. Girl Guides leaders have to undertake police and working with children checks while training is provided both on the job and through formal Girl Guide Victoria training at the leader's own pace. Anyone interested in becoming a leader can contact Ms Weppner on 0478 486 610 or at aweppner@guidesvic. org.au.

Better future for Bhutanese By ERIN SOMERVILLE A GROUP of Bhutanese refugees have begun building a better future for themselves and the community through a series of hands-on projects at Age Concern Albury Wodonga. The 11 refugees lent their hands as part of the Building a Brighter Future program, which will help them work towards receiving a dual Certificate II in Work Education and General Education for Adults via Edge Workforce.
The Age Concern building received a facelift through the cleaning, gardening, and painting tasks the group performed. “Our involvement is to provide experiences for them to enable them to break into employment,� Age Concern Co-ordinator of Volunteers Marjorie Passey said. “They worked extremely hard and have done more than we expected to be put into the project.� Ran Majsi was just one of the many volunteers who en-
joyed the experience. “I liked to do the work, we want a job,� he said. “It was not hard, we were happy to do it.� Mr Majsi, who has been in Albury for 18 months, said the experience had taught him about painting different surfaces and how to work with some chemicals. The project saw the Age Concern garden receive muchneeded landscaping and freshly painted toilets, corridor, and foyer area.

Letter A bit of free speech THE quote from Michelle O’Byrne, Deputy Leader of the Tasmania’s Labor Party, as printed in your report of the recent Rights to Privacy Forum (AWNW Jan 15) must have caused a few wry smiles. “I support free speech ... what I don’t support is the manner some people choose to express their views.� In the current climate, Je Suis Charlie and all, a lefty like Michelle O’Byrne would want to be seen as supporting free speech. But her qualification about “the manner some people choose to express their views� is subjective. Would “Can we offer you an alternative to having your baby
killed?� uttered in Englehardt Street, constitute “free speech� Ms O’Byrne? In reference to the presence of The Helpers of God’s Precious Infants in Englehardt Street, I think we should leave the last word to Albury’s Rights to Privacy Dr Pieter Mourik who is on public record 3 January as stating “They believe protection of the baby’s life is worth invading people’s privacy over.� A “baby’s life.� Dr Mourik knows from his medical studies every abortion kills a baby. It’s tragic a doctor so derides the gallant efforts of The Helpers to save babies and their mothers from the horror and trauma of abortion. Denise M. Cameron, President, Pro Life Victoria (Inc).

More than a school age of 17 in 2013 after struggling with the workload in a mainstream school - compounded by personal and housing issues. She started her VCAL and Certificate III in Children’s Services in 2013 - completing her children’s services in June of 2014 and her intermediate VCAL soon after. She began working casually for a Child Care Facility in Wodonga in 2014. The Allan Cracknel scholarship award winner is coming back this year to do her diploma in children’s services. Peter completed a Certificate III in retail baking (combined) in 2012, going on to do an apprenticeship through the school, working at the school bakery (Stamp Bakery) in 2013. That year he also went to Las Vegas for a baking convention and volunteer work. Last year the school assisted Peter with getting a part-time job at local Lavington bakery. He is set to finish his apprenticeship and work fulltime in the bakery industry. All enrolments are taken via an appointment.

ALBURY Wodonga Community College is not just a college for those who have finished their school education. It is also a registered and accredited non-government school designed specifically for the needs of those young people who have been unable to complete their school studies in mainstream schools. Which means students aged 1519, not in a traditional school, can finish their studies there - as well as going on to vocational training. The greatest difference between the Albury Wodonga Community College and many other alternative education settings is that their foundations lie in adult education philosophies. Choice, independence, mutual respect, and accountability all have a significant role to play. The Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) program offers literacy, numeracy, Personal Development Skills (PDS) and work-related skills. There are also significantly smaller class sizes too. Within the VCAL programs the PDS program focuses on volunteer work and working with the wider community - food share and UnitingCare making meals to be given out to those in need. It is an approach that is getting results. Kaitlin came to AWCC at the

HAPPY new year to all, I hope you had a great Christmas and holiday break and found time to get in some bike riding. This is set to be an exciting year as the new models we have previously talked about start arriving at the shops. Christmas Eve saw the arrival of an earlier than expected Christmas present for us with the exciting new Triumph Tiger 800 XCX being uncrated and pre-delivered ready for demonstration rides and sale. The adventure market has boomed in Australia over the last five years and I believe this bike will put Triumph right at the top. The Tiger has undergone a significant upgrade over the previous model which was al-
ready a brilliant bike but Triumph has listened to customer feedback and delivered a bike which incorporates almost everything we have asked for. Some of the improvements include white power suspension standard on the XCX, ride by wire throttle control with electronic cruise, switchable ABS, switchable traction control and switchable rider modes and the rider modes can be changed while on the move! Triumph has also managed to achieve a 17 per cent improvement in fuel economy over the previous model as well as improved emissions which was no mean feat considering how good the previous tiger already was. Modifications to the gear
change mechanisms make for a lighter, smoother and easier to use gear box. There is also changes to air flow over the radiator meaning less heat on the rider for improved comfort . The cooling system has also been upgraded making for quicker warm-ups among other benefits. The list just keeps going on so as you can see this bike has got it all and for anyone interested at all I would love you to come and see me in the shop and take the bike for a ride. As we all ride into what promises to be an exciting 2015 I personally can’t wait to see what else unfolds in motorcycling.

Drive-On Shock Absorber Test
By EWAN KENNEDY HYUNDAI Genesis is an upmarket, high-tech sedan/saloon which is designed to tackle the big-name Germans and Brits at their own game at the top end of the market. This is a large car, bigger than the Holden Commodore and Ford Falcon. It’s also a little larger than the cars with which Hyundai would like to compete head on; Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 5 Series, Audi A6 and Jaguar XF. The new Hyundai Genesis is priced from $60,000 making it a bargain in its class. Interestingly, the Genesis may benefit from the withdrawal of Ford and Holden from manufacturing in Australia. Limousine companies, taxi operators, corporate owners, even government fleets, are all on the lookout for large cars to replace Caprice, Statesman, Commodore, LTD, Fairlane and Falcon. Genesis is not as out-there in its shape as the smaller Hyundai models. As it’s aimed at more conservative buyers with substantially more money than the owners of the rest of the Kia range, this is probably a sensible move. The shape is graceful and very much in the European vein - which is interesting as one of the senior designers was a Korean-Australian fellow. The Hyundai has a large single-frame grille of the type favoured by Audi and Mercedes, though BMW has taken a different direction, as has Jaguar. The side profile is curved and almost in four-door coupe territory. There’s a fashionable rise in the window line at the side-rear. Tail treatment has a built-in spoiler lip and the wide stance gives Genesis a powerful look from the rear. There’s no doubt this is a large car. The interior of the Genesis is excellent, with a modern appearance using multiple materials, including an upmarket hand-stitched look, real timber,

Your name: Dave Payne Make and model: Mazda RX7 FC3S How long you've been working on your vehicle?: I’ve had the vehicle for about 12 years I spent the first 6 customising it, and the last 6 maintaining it. Tell us your 'toy story'. . . I originally purchased the rotary engine that’s in the car to put in a corolla wagon I have but it was taking too long to get the conversion done (before I had the skills to do it myself) and this RX7 came up at Alessi Mazda so I grabbed it, I took it straight to the workshop and pulled the motor out and then decided to change the colour (as i don’t love white) and it snowballed from there. I changed the colour, painted or polished everything underneath, replaced every part that would come off, got a full custom interior built from some drawings i did, upgraded the audio and had the engine built with a bunch of upgraded parts (turbo, fuel system, cooling system etc) and it now makes about 500hp, I got aftermarket suspension to lower it so much and fitted 20” wheels. Too many mods to mention...

c dle Councils cud By KRYSTEN MANUEL
reIN THE face of recent comments garding Albury and Wodonga councils not communicating enough, Albury and Wodonga councillors met on Monday night to discuss working together currently and in the future. “I don’t think the community are aware of what we are doing,� AlburyCity mayor Kevin Mack said. “So I decided, with my Wodonga counterpart, to formalise that discussion and have a meeting with councillors only present to discuss what we’re to currently doing and what we intend do in the future for both of our cities. “It was about being able to touch base, to put some relevance to the current relationship we have. As councillors we needed to draw that line in the what we this is w sand again and say ‘this currently do together,’ which is quite .� substantial.�
City of Wodonga mayor Rodney Wangman supported Cr Mack in saying while meetings between councils were not new – they are held quarterly with the vision of having all councillors present twice a year, with meetings scheduled for more urgent issues there’s always room for improvement. “When you have new councillors on both sides it’s good to reaffirm policy co-operation right down to practicality issues,� he said. “What do we hope to achieve from these outcomes? Clearly some of those items are Albury Wodonga Health, the future of high-speed rail, the alliance of the councils of the Upper Murray, local procurement, then we get down istype to what I call ‘rats and mice’ sues that are fundamentally important to our community – all of us expect Albury Wodonga is perceived as one city, so morally and practically we op-

Making memories IT was an Australia Day long weekend to remember for many festival goers at Beechworth’s beautiful Mayday Hills. A strong crowd turned out on Saturday to attend the Beechworth Music Festival, which provided a diverse range of alternative music, acts and artists. The line-up included some great local, regional and national acts including Beaches, Jen Cloher, The Bennies, My Left Boot, and DJ Mermaid. The crowd enjoyed a full line up of entertainment right into the night, before many retreated to their tents.

Movie hitting the mark IT’S the silences instead of the explosions, the moral dilemmas instead of the action sequences, and the human instead of the hero that makes American Sniper worth a watch. This war film is based on the autobiography of Chris Kyle, known as the United State’s most lethal sniper. With 255 kills to his name, Kyle is one deadly soldier, and he sadly knows it. His career as a renowned marksmen began when he was deployed to Iraq after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Kyle’s first kills leave him emotionally scarred, but he soon learns to manage his emotions to earn the title of ‘Legend’ for his accuracy.
His legendary work soon becomes noticed by the enemy, and a bounty is placed on Kyle’s head. When Kyle eventually returns home to his family, he is haunted by his memories of war and his marriage begins to fracture. All this however doesn’t deter Kyle from embarking on another three tours of duty, where Kyle faces his own demons as a soldier, husband, and father. This film is up for six Oscar gongs this year, including Best Picture and Best Actor. With nominations like that, it’s best to ignore the critics and make your own judgement. You won’t regret it.
Cooper puts in the performance of his career as Kyle, while director Clint Eastwood like a fine wine only seems to continue improving with age. It’s a controversial film, and in this day and age any film that deals with terrorism is bound to receive tough criticism. If you’re looking for some good entertainment, simply go in with an open mind and you’re bound to enjoy the film. Be warned, though. The film has been labelled the most divisive of the year, and those wanting to dig for war propaganda, anti-Muslim messages, and controversial themes will have a goldmine of material to work through.

They’ll keep on Searchin’ By TANIA PHILLIPS THE internet went wild with memes when Kanye West fans asked who that Paul McCartney guy was and that he’d be famous now but one person who thought it was particularly funny was Frank Allen. Bass player and front man for The Searchers, Frank experienced the popularity of The Beatles and the other “Mersey Beat” bands from the inside. In the space of just a few years, The Searchers left an indelible mark thanks to a catalogue that includes “Sweets For My Sweet”, “Sugar And Spice”, the Jackie DeShannon re-make of “Needles And Pins” and “When You Walk In The Room”, “Love Potion Number 9”, a cover of The Orions’ “Don’t Throw Your Love Away” and “Someday We’re Gonna Love Again”. And 52 years after this odyssey began for Frank and his mates, they are still playing gigs all over the world and enjoying it more than ever. In fact at 71, retirement is the furthest thing from Frank’s mind. “What would we do (if the band retired),” he laughed. “People retire to relax and do what they’ve always wanted to do but we’re already doing that.
Rocking up a storm to the Mersey Beat are the Searchers - 52 years touring and performing and still going strong.
The Searchers.
“We made enough years and years ago not to need to do this because of the money - we just can’t imagine not doing it.” “I’m 71 and John McNally (sixstring guitar, 12 string guitar and vo-
cals) is 73 but I still feel like I’m 25 I have no health problems. We love doing 200 shows a year.” But while their days of hit-making were over in the ’60s, that doesn’t mean they wouldn’t mind being a little
more famous. So will they be seeking out Kanye West like that Paul McCartney guy so they too can be a little more famous? “I don’t think he needs it,” Frank laughs.
resulting in this amazing exhibition. Hurry, it’s on at the LIbraryMuseum for free until 1 February.

The largest ever Lego model of Rome’s famous Colosseum is coming to Albury. A quarter of a million bricks were used in its construction, put together by 10,000 slaves working for architect and Lego Certified Professional Ryan 'Vitruvius’ McNaught. The Lego model is the centrepiece of this Nicholson Museum touring exhibition
and tells the story of Rome’s largest surviving building from the great days of the Roman Empire. Don’t miss the feast of programs across the Summer holidays to inspire the gladiator in all of us - Lego Mayhem, Minecraft Colosseum and much more. It is on until 15 February at LibraryMuseum for free.

“We do have some fans in high places. “The Birds have cited us as an influence and Bruce Springsteen. “Marty Ramone, the last remaining Ramone, got up on stage and performed Needles and Pins with us at the Cutting Room in New York - there’s a clip on YouTube.” So no Kanye but Frank admits if Springsteen wanted them to play on a track on his next album, they wouldn’t say no. But even if it doesn’t happen the guys, who still enjoy playing live and mixing up their sets to cater for the audience and the mood of the night, will still be happy. Let’s face it when you’ve contributed as much as they have to the British music industry, with record sales well in excess of 45 million and were the second group from Liverpool, after The Beatles, to have a hit in the US when “Needles and Pins” charted - you really don’t have a lot to prove.

Alatalo Bros can also help find the perfect parcel of land. “At the moment baby boomers are five to 10 years off retiring and in a position where they could move in to a lifestyle village, but that doesn’t suit everybody,” Alatalo sales manager Michelle Brown said. “Many people look at building a brand new home to save on maintenance, security, have designed to their own comfort for their needs now and in the future. “It’s good to do it before retirement while people still have the funds and means.” The team at Alatalo, with more than 30 years’ local experience, can be trusted to help build a dream downsized home and make the building process a smooth one. The team is dedicated to ensuring a home is exactly the one clients envisage and is happy to tailor designs to their needs. “Clients can come and take one of our plans and we can build it as it is,
The Acacia by Alatalo Bros. or we have in-house designers who can design from scratch,” Michelle said. “We are very flexible in that respect.” For retirees, being able to cater for the future is the perfect option with Alatalo Bros being able to ensure spaces and levels are walking frame and
wheelchair friendly, or able to customise bench tops to the perfect height. There is an interior designer on hand to help clients choose all their colours and finishing touches that make a house a home if the job is too overwhelming. The team can also help with security needs or the popular solar panels
and offer panels from three to five kilowatts to ensure a home is environmentally friendly and cheaper to run. With the vision of building homes, not just houses, the team at Alatalo Bros is the ideal next stop for the next move. “We are not just builders, but developers.”
“We have flexibility and a reputation for our finished home, which means we receive repeat business and constant referral.” With the business using the same trustworthy trades, clients can be sure that their future Alatalo Bros home will look just as great as what they promise.
Opening Soon... Alatalo Bros are excited to announce the upcoming opening of their new display home. Located in Thurgoona a contemporary community set amongst a stunning natural environment and only minutes away from Albury Wodonga.

Local Sport At the edge of upset By JAMES MCNEIL BELVOIR has gone perilously close to upsetting last year’s premiers Wodonga in what was the game of round 11 of Cricket Albury Wodonga. Chasing 330 at Kelly Park, the Eagles needed runs from their big names and received that in bulk. Drew Cameron led the way with his second hundred this year and plundered his way to 123. Cameron’s innings was one in which Belvoir built its score around. He was supported well by Nat Sariman (36), Mick Russell (61) and Jon Spencer (28). For Wodonga skipper Robbie Jackson was the best with the ball in taking 5/45 while Beau Kennedy chipped in with 2/59. Belvoir will now need to win almost all of their games to make finals this season while Wodonga maintained its standing on top of the ladder. Chasing 254 at Billson Park was always going to be challenging for Albury and it proved too difficult a task for it on a lush outfield. Jarryd Hatton was the best with the ball for St Pats as he took 4/25 and Mark Butters (3/10) and Andrew Lade (2/3) chipped in to assist. St Pats then batted again and made its way to 5/95 with Nicholas Flood making 39. It was an important win for St Pats which is sitting just in finals contention while this loss puts pressure on Albury to win in the coming weeks to ensure a spot in finals cricket. At Rowen Park, East Albury managed to defend its score of 179 on a good batting wicket with a slow outfield. The crows managed to take all of Tallangatta’s wickets leaving the Bushies 20 runs short. Torquil McKillop was the best of the batsmen for Tallangatta compiling a well made 38, while Mat Arsmtrong (33) and Englishman James Weighell (32) made an impact as well.
By TANIA PHILLIPS
Andrew Mackinlay gets the ball back in play.
Kori Stevenson takes on the ball. Chris Bridle was the best for the Crows with the ball with 3/46 off 18 and James McNeil grabbed three wickets as well. The Crows are sitting second on the ladder and Tallangatta is in a similar position to Albury and Belvoir where good performances could book a finals appearance. Wodonga Raiders looked set to challenge Lavington’s total of 192 at the Scots School oval until youngster Jaydon Wright tore through the Raiders’ middle order to finish with 4/38 off 14.1. Jesse Griffiths was the top scorer for Wodonga with 30 while Josh Warren Marmo (26) and Luke Brunow (25) provided some resistance. Nathan Brown (3/29) and Michael Galvin (2/24) also took wickets to help the Panthers’ cause. While the Raiders remain glued to the bottom of the ladder, Lavington has all but sealed a finals birth and will be looking to hit top form leading in. North Albury has taken the points at Bunton Park in a match which New City would rather forget. Having scored 6/347, North Al-

bury then proceeded in bowling New City out for 87. Mitchell O’Brien provided the only resistance scoring 25. Tom Hemsley took the miserly figures of 3/12 and Rob Hartnett (2/21) and Daniel Ahtanitis (2/27) also took wickets. Instead of going for an outright, North decided to give its batsmen time in the middle and managed to get to 5/169 with Brendan Simmons (56) top scoring and Craig Taylor making 40 not out. In the T20 Big Bash, Tradelink
has run out winner for the second year running. Captained by Trent Ball, the Hurricanes made 8/172 in the first innings with James Weighell (48) and Josh Warren-Marmo (44) the top scorers. In reply, the Lindhe Reds lost early wickets and never recovered as they were bowled out for 68 and lost the game by 104 runs. It’s an exciting time of year for cricketers and spots are getting tight for those teams wishing to make finals.
Bend it like bicyclers in the first match-up by CRAIG McMILLAN, BENDED ELBOW CYCLING TEAM THE first race in the inaugural Bended Elbow Time Trial Series was raced on Thursday night on the fast Old Barnawartha Road course. Breezy and hot conditions welcomed the strong field from as far away as Bright, competing in a number of categories including Men’s, Women’s, Masters and Junior. Also included in the event was a standard Road Bike category to encourage riders to compete that may not have access to aerodynamic equipment. An initiative of the Bended Elbow Cycling Team, the Time Trial Series is targeted at giving local riders a summer race series to develop their skills against the clock, and in the same environment looking to attract and welcome new riders to the sport. As each rider races individually over 16 kilometres it is less intimidating than starting in longer group events, enabling confidence to be built before trying other forms of racing.

Three event race licences were available on the night to encourage new riders, with Women’s winner Kirrilie De Athridge taking the honours in her first event with an impressive ride. Aaron Moffat of Albury scorched
the course with an average of more than 42 kilometres per hour to post the fastest time on the night, looking impressive with a full aerodynamic set up. Charly McMillan of the Bended Elbow Team was close behind with
a time equal to Masters winner, Gordon Sutherland from Bright. Declan Gregory of the Bended Elbow team took out the Standard Road Bike category, with the Junior winner, Nahum Little also coming from this category. With the series raced on Thursday nights over the next eigh weeks, riders experienced and new will be looking to improve on times and chase series prizes within the categories. With a large number of triathletes and mountain bike riders in the area, the Bended Elbow Team is looking for new riders who may consider complementing their current racing with road events. With the Time Trial an event raced at the national championships each January, the team is keen to take a larger contingent to compete against the world’s best next year. For any cyclists that are keen to try cycle racing the event starts at 6.15pm at the corner of Old Barnawartha and McFarlands Road, each Thursday night until 12 March. Sign on starts at 5.45pm and all abilities welcome.
WHEN swimmer Lachlan Boye’s mum heard about Ian Thorpe’s big feet and heard jokes that his parents had to get him into swimming because they couldn’t find him shoes she thought it was pretty funny. Anne Boye still thinks it’s funny but it’s a bit closer to home now. At 16, Wodonga Swimming Club member Lachlan is 6’2" with size 15 feet and although he’s been swimming for three years competitively he’s already dominating his sport. The talented freestyle and breast-stroke swimmer, who followed his younger sister into the sport, dominated his division at the Victorian Open Swimming Championships at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre last week. Competing in the incredibly strong Multi Class Division - which included several Australian representatives - he put in an amazing performance, earning a place in the finals of almost all of his events. Lachlan competed as a Swimmer With Disability in the 14 classification of the Multi Class (MC) Championships, swimming in nine events over the three days. This is the first time he has competed at the Victorian Championships and he swam personal best times in most of his events. Lachlan swam the 50 metre events in all four strokes, making the finals in all of them and achieving a fifth placing in backstroke and sixth in breaststroke. He swam an impressive 4.5 second Personal Best in the 200 metre Freestyle, qualifying for the finals of that event as well. He also qualified for the finals in the 100 Free, 100 Breast and the 200 Individual Medley. Wodonga Swimming Club head coach Jenny Weldon said it was a fantastic result after a lot of hard work by Lachlan. “He has trained really well in the lead up to the Championships,” she said. “This has been a great result for Lachlan who now has his eyes set on Nationals and is keen to get training for this major event which will be held in Sydney in April.” The talented swimmer will swim in both the National Age and National Open titles in Sydney - the two events are just a week apart but if he is to achieve his aim of being a Paralympian one day, it’s probably something he’ll have to get use to.
