Big weekend in Corryong The small Upper Murray town of Corryong is gearing up for what is set to be another huge weekend celebrating horsemanship, live music, art, poetry and community over Thursday 30 March to Sunday 2 April.

FULL STORY, PAGE 9

Music on the move Two young Border musicians are set to immerse themselves in the best of the UK’s vibrant rural music scene after headlining at the 2016 Henty Machinery Field Days. Maidie Dawson, of Kergunyah, and Lachlan Mitchell, of Jindera, performed as part of the Dreamfields Creative Youth mentor program at the field days, and were selected to take part in an exchange program with Somerset Rural Youth Project in the UK. The two young musicians will tour and perform in Somerset on 20 to 30 April, visiting the site of one of the world’s most iconic music festivals, Glastonbury. Maidie and Lachlan will take part in the Somerset Rural Youth Project annual conference, which involves youth music providers across the south-west of England on 28 April. They will visit the Glastonbury music festival site and meet with founder Michael Eavis, as well as spend time at the National Folk Music Centre at Halsway Manor. The exchange is also supported by the Australian Cultural Fund, a fund-raising platform for Australian artists. Somerset Rural Youth Project chief executive Nik Harwood is looking forward to welcoming Lachlan and Maidie to the region. “Somerset Rural Youth Project are excited at the amazing opportunity offered by the Dreamfields Exchange,’’ Mr Harwood said. “We will enjoy getting Maidie and Lachlan alongside some of the young musicians we are working with, and seeing the creativity flow. “This perhaps may culminate in the recording of some new material in our studio to reflect their experience on the exchange.’’ Mr Harwood said the two young Australians would also take part in the Rural Music Network sessions. Maidie has had years of performing under her belt with twice being an entrant in the Telstra Road to Discovery

in 2010 and 2012. Listing her music genre as alternative folk and country, she released her debut EP single, Running Home, under the Dreamfields program in 2013. Maidie supported country music star Tania Kernaghan during concerts at the Birdsville and Innamincka Hotels in 2015, and now studies nursing at La Trobe University, Ballarat. Lachlan, 23, works as a radiographer, has performed over the summer as a solo artist and is finishing a new album at David Wilson Recording in Wagga. The Jindera blues rock singer songwriter says the exposure to other musical genres in the UK would be an

the exchange will be open to young musicians, photographers and creative writers participating in workshops held at their schools,’’ Mr Dent said. In turn, it is envisaged Somerset Rural Youth will select two recipients to travel to Australia in September. They will be special guests at the Dreamfields Festival at the Thurgoona Golf Club on September 16, and headline at the 2017 Henty Machinery Field Days on September 19-21. “They will tour the region in a shared rural experience between the Border community and Somerset,’’ Mr Dent said. This year will be the fourth Henty Machinery Field Days has hosted the

inspiration. “I never thought I would get such an opportunity - it will be interesting to see what they are doing and how I can learn from it,’’ Lachlan said. The Border community raised $2000 in sponsorship and donations to pay for Maidie and Lachlan’s flights to the UK while Somerset Rural Youth are providing accommodation. Dreamfields convenor Craig Dent said Maidie and Lachlan were selected for the inaugural exchange after excelling themselves in the Border music scene over the past few years. “There are three creative streams to the Dreamfields Awards so next year

HMFD chief executive officer Belinda Anderson said the co-operative was a strong advocate of youth involvement in the field days. “We are happy to help the Dreamfields program reach a wider audience and foster the incredibly talented youth from the local region and the UK,’’ Mrs Anderson said. “The exchange recipients from Somerset will have a chance to experience first hand the hospitality of our region, and the uniquely Australian event the field days have evolved into.’’

THE ambitious 580ha LOGIC industrial “hub� near Wodonga may soon have a new tenant, but who, what, when and where remains a closely guarded secret. Wodonga Council’s director of investment attraction, Ralph Paruit, referred to a preliminary agreement with a new tenant while addressing Wodonga Chamber of Commerce last week, but did not go into detail. The impression he gave was that it was a large business and securing them was somewhat of a coup. Mr Paruit was updating chamber members on approved and proposed developments at their Thursday lunch meeting. NewsWeekly asked Mr Paruit for more information after the meeting, but the request was referred to council’s media team, who after consulting with management decided not to comment because of commercial confidentiality. If the new tenant does eventuate, it will be another feather in the cap for the council-conceived industrial park, which opened to great fanfare a number of years ago. Among the first to build was Woolworths, who established a $100m regional distribution centre. Other tenants include freight companies Border Express, Roadmaster and Cope Sensitive Freight. Work is also underway on a $16m national driver training centre for Wodonga TAFE and a possible tenant for the service station site was mooted late last year. The plan on the LOGIC website - www.logicwodonga.com.au - indicates 31 lots still available, ranging in size from 3.41ha to 61.5ha. The LOGIC industry hub is 14km from Wodonga and adjacent to the Hume Freeway and Sydney-Mel-

By MONIQUE KUZEFF A TWILIGHT market was a grand gesture to the opening of the Promenade at Junction Place last week as it represented one of many events that the new space is able to host. While the Promenade was the second public space to open at Junction Place, following the opening of Junction Square in early 2015, it stands as an integral part of central Wodonga linking the two historic railway buildings to the precinct. On Friday, the public space was officially opened by representatives of Places Victoria and the Wodonga Council including Parks Victoria general manager Precincts Simon Wilson and Wodonga Mayor Anna Speedie. Mr Wilson said Junction Place was an area that would attract a wide range of population. “When it’s finished, there will be offices, retail shops and possibly a hotel or cinema, who knows what else,� Mr Wilson said. “The idea is for parents and visitors to come by and have a picnic or to use the cafes, which are on either side of the Promenade, “It’s a very social and flexible area with a lot of open and hard standing space - we will see a really huge opportunity for events such as the twilight market here.� The $1.25 million Promenade, which is Australia’s largest regional urban renewel project, was funded by Places Victoria with assistance from the Federal Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development’s National Stronger Regions Fund. Parks Victoria CEO Greg Anderson said the further establishment of Junction Place was

necessary for the growing population in the area. “With Wodonga’s population to grow in excess of 40 per cent over the next 20 years, the revitalisation of Junction Place is a necessary part for the catering of the city’s growing needs,� Mr Anderson said. “It is a new public space for Wodonga and will be the hub of the new dining precinct within Junction Place, which will continue to grow with the newly opened Goods Shed Beer Cafe. “The precinct has already become a place to meet both day and night, and it is bringing you life to the former railway site which will be transformed into a new part of Albury Wodonga over the next 15 to 20 years.� Construction of the Promenade began in August 2015, with Places Victoria contracting the City of Wodonga to construct the square on its behalf. Wodonga Mayor Anna Speedie said a development like Junction Place only came together with good planning, time, money and effort and the community had already embraced the precinct. “What an exciting moment this community has worked very hard for it...it was nearly nine years ago when we saw the $45 million investment and removal of the railway from this site, and it has created a momentum for us to rebuild the heart of our city,� she said. “The development of this precinct has seen us establish some fantastic retail and food businesses including Broad Gauge, BeanStation Cafe and the Goods Shed and some of our pop ups as well.�

bourne rail line and has been well promoted as a new industrial mecca. “Uniquely located on the national road and rail corridor, between Melbourne and Sydney, LOGIC industry hub is within an overnight transport shift of Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and is central to 75 per cent of Australia’s population,� the blurb on the website reads. “LOGIC offers an extraordinary opportunity as the central intermodal ‘port’ on the eastern seaboard, offering the potential for savings in supply chain logistics. “LOGIC industry hub not only offers a great location with great site dynamics it also plans in time to provide extra facilities including largescale service centre incorporating fuel supplies, cafe, truck servicing, truck was facility, accommodation and amenities; and quality child-care facilities.�

By ERIN SOMERVILLE AN ALBURY councillor has spoken out against the practice of councillors voting for the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mayor, saying it should be a job left for the community. Councillor Graham Dockseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments come after current Albury mayor Kevin Mack announced he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be seeking re-election this month due to family and work commitments. Deputy mayor Ross Jackson will also be stepping aside from his post. The vacancies are expected to see a number of potential candidates raise their hands for the job. Cr Docksey says the decision should be left for the public to make in the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is my personal opinion that no one councillor should be placed in the position of being the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;king makerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I firmly believe that as the community voted in the nine councillors, then the community should have the right to vote for their mayor and deputy mayor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Let the community decide who they consider best to represent their community.â&#x20AC;? Cr Docksey said the procedure could help stamp out potential secret backroom deals and revolving mayors. Current local government procedure as a general rule sees councillors elect one of their number to be the mayor for a one-year term. However in some councils it has been decided by referendum that the voters will elect the mayor. Where this is the case, the mayor is said to be â&#x20AC;&#x2122;elected by popular voteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;a directly elected mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and serves a fouryear term. In this situation the optional preferential method of voting is used. Albury councillors will vote for the new mayor and deputy mayor on 28 September.

It gets the hairs on the back of your neck standing up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Australian soldiers over in Afghanistan are doing a fantastic job to meet the current political climate to ensure they stop insurgents in Afghanistan, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re upholding the customs and traditions of the Australian Army. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have the utmost respect for the young soldiers out there on the ground doing the job now. They are busy, they are good at what they do and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud to be Australian. The Australian flag is everywhere in Afghanistan and that just shows to me the Anzac spirit is well and truly alive.â&#x20AC;? Turn to pages 4 and 5 for more Anzac day coverage.

WHAT does Anzac Day mean to you? For many Australians itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a time to reflect on wars passed, the old Diggers who served our country and to give thanks for the lifestyle we have come to enjoy in this country. For others itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just as important to pay the same respect to our current crop of defence force personnel serving in various parts of the world. For Warrant Officer Class One Shane Knowles itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a day of reflection, a day about past and present and tradition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anzac Day for me is a special day,â&#x20AC;? WO Knowles said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a soldier itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a day of recognition for all the guys who have paid the ultimate sacrifice, the loss of their life, on operations to fight for what we believe in, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to look after Australia.â&#x20AC;? Currently based at Bandiana, WO Knowles has served in the Australian Army for 24 years. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seen action in Rwanda, East Timor and more recently returned from a six-month tour in Afghanistan. He says he has â&#x20AC;&#x153;seen enoughâ&#x20AC;? to know the importance of the job. He said Anzac Day for him generally panned out in similar fashion each year, whether marching in Sydney, Townsville or here in Wodonga, but had more recently taken on new importance through one of his two sons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Me and my 12-year-old son will get up early and go to the Dawn Service, pay our respects and reflect on the guys who have lost their lives,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit of an educational thing for my son as well. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now coming to that age where he wants to understand and wants to know what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From there weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go back and have a bit of gunfire breakfast and after that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go and do the march. Then I might go to the RSL and have a couple of beers with the older soldiers.â&#x20AC;? WO Knowles said the chance to chat to the older soldiers was an important part of the day for him, to be able to share stories, both old and new. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a huge respect for those older soldiers,â&#x20AC;? he said.

ter what you do for your community,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You get to be a force that can drive the community forward especially in a community like the Bhutanese Association where everyone is trying to settle in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re organised and are willing to put time in, there is always opportunities to contribute to the community. Even if you have a full-time job I was able to do a lot of things.â&#x20AC;? But now a new journey begins for Ram, who spent the last week settling in to his new apartment in Wollongong, getting ready to embark on a journey that will see him become a graduate doctor at the end of 2020. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Disbelief is the word that would accurately sum up how I am feeling about it all,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel privileged and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thankful that I could come to Australia and have the opportunity like everyone else to do what I wanted to do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I worked really hard in 2016 to make sure I was able to start medical school this year, which is definitely a big tick for what I wanted to do but I also want to continue my work in the community.â&#x20AC;? Ram said he intended to move back to Albury to continue working in his community once he has graduated from medical school. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My preference after graduating is to get back to Albury and I will do whatever I can to make sure it happens.â&#x20AC;?

tended their roosting range into the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Garden which forced the closure of this area and into the Kauri Tree which is the tallest and most significant tree in the Botanic Gardens. The grey headed flying fox is listed as a threatened species under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 and also listed as threatened under the Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999. The little red flying fox is protected under the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974. The status of the Flying Foxes requires a licence from the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage to relocate. Council has also launched a new webpage with the most-up-to-date information on the relocation, which is available at alburycity.nsw. gov.au/batrelocation

A NEW immunisation policy â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;No Jab, No Payâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; requires that parents of children (less than 20 years of age) who are not fully immunised or on a recognised catch-up schedule will no longer be eligible to receive family assistance payments. The No Jab, No Pay policy was put into action from 1 January as a part of the Federal Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to improving immunisation coverage in Australia. According to the new policy, conscientious objection and vaccination objection on non-medical grounds will no longer be a valid exemption from immunisation requirements and Centrelink will notify families who do not meet the new immunisation requirements. General practitioner at the Jindera Medical and Acupuncture Centre Dr Glen Mobilia, who has been applying the new requirements, supports the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new immunisation policy. Dr Mobilia said the positives of immunisation far outweigh the negative and he believed that people should think not only of their child but of other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe that immunisation does prevent the infectious diseases and consequences of those diseases. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been given an incentive to try and do what the evidence at the time strongly shows,â&#x20AC;? Dr Mobilia said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Overall the best option is not always clear however, we should try and base what we do on readily available evidence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is an overall responsibility in other people who have taken that step with immunisation and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to consider the general community prevention strategy,â&#x20AC;? he said. Dr Mobilia said the incentive of family assistance payment should not be the reason parents get their children vaccinated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unfortunately it does happen, for example some people get pregnant be-

cause thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s some pregnancy payout available,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to respect that people are entitled to have a their own view

and all I can really do in my position is provide information from which they can come to a decision as parents for their children.â&#x20AC;?

The new policy states that only medical contra-indications and natural immunity are considered for possible exemptions from the new immunisa-

Council advised nearby residents they would hear loud noise and machinery at dawn, dusk and periodically throughout the day. Council also advised residents that although the gardens would remain open during the relocation process, they should be mindful of the bats which are likely to be disturbed during daylight hours. In September 2013 a colony of flying foxes (grey headed flying foxes and little red flying foxes) established itself in the Albury Botanic Gardens. Bat colonies have been roosting along the Murray for 35 years. This is the first time any colony has established itself in the Botanic Gardens and is believed to be an isolated incident.

THE sounds of starting pistols, whipper snippers, chainsaws, blowers, mowers, banging metallic objects and computer generated recordings took over the Albury Botanic Gardens on Monday, ridding the gardens of all but seven bats. In a bid to rid the gardens of the whole fruit bat colony, AlburyCity consulted the appropriate authorities, gained approval from The Office of Environment and Heritage, and devised a plan. With an expectation of taking weeks, many are surprised at the batsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; quick response. The plan was developed in conjunction with staff from Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Botanic Gardens, which successfully relocated a colony of bats from its gardens in 2003. Relocation involves filling the gardens with loud noise

The dream doctor is in By Monique Kuzeff

Seven years ago, Ram Khanal was unsure of where his fate would take him. Having transitioned from the basic lifestyle that a Beldangi refugee camp could afford him to a country full of opportunity, Ram grasped his new life in Australia by the horns. Today the 23-year-old prepares for his first week at the University of Wollongong, where he will spend the next four years studying a Doctor of Medicine (MD). He'll be chasing a dream he once thought he could never reach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today I am one step closer to achieving that dream,â&#x20AC;? Ram said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve still got a long way to go but I am so glad that the journey is beginning. I cannot describe how excited I am.â&#x20AC;? He said his inspiration to become a doctor manifested through his own experiences with medical treatment in the refugee camp. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seeing people die in the camp because of the lack of health services available was definitely eye-opening for me,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was never a quick fix at all and today people continue to suffer from the increasingly prevailing health risk conditions we now see over there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It motivated me to become a doctor and give back to my community.â&#x20AC;? Ram has always been pro-active and is not one to turn down a great opportunity when it presents itself. Since coming to Australia in 2009, Ram has worked tirelessly in many jobs

THE Albury Wodonga Community College (AWCC) is celebrating itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 40th anniversary this year. In 40 years the college has been open it has grown from strength to strength thanks to a plethora of dedicated staff and the generosity of many in terms of time and money. But success did not come easily. Consistent growth within the college called for growth in venues, staff, courses and funds needed, all of which came about through clever planning and hard work. Today, the AWCC boasts up to 120 equivalent full time workers, plus tutors, servicing over 5,000 knowledge-hungry students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the Community College ďŹ rst formed it really came out of grass roots community initiatives,â&#x20AC;? AWCC CEO Rodney Wangman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The 40th anniversary is quite signiďŹ cant considering it started in one very small dilapidated old building into the site that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become. Gone are the days of having a handful of students and one person running the facility. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In my mind itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a signiďŹ cant community asset

and continues to provide a service to our community that wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t otherwise be here.â&#x20AC;? The AWCC services all ages, from babies and toddlers in early education right through to seniors wanting to further their education and skill set. It offers community services and education courses that cover learning of all types and outcomes, with four separate divisions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Community College now has grown to the point where we have different divisions providing services across the community in a wide array of areas,â&#x20AC;? Mr Wangman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have U3A and active aging groups, child care, Vocational Education and Training (VET), and our Independent School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Community early years child care goes all the way out to remote and rural facilities that wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t otherwise be provided because the populous is too small. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a full Vocation and Education Training program which gives people nationally accredited qualiďŹ cations that allow them to go out and secure

work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And our Independent School is about providing a different alternative from the normal education curriculum in the way itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually taught. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very unique area we entered into eight years ago ... We found there were a lot of kids missing out on education because they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ďŹ t to the traditional model. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our Independent School still runs to Victorian curriculum standards or a modiďŹ ed New South Wales curriculum, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taught a little differently. We have counsellors to back kids up for when they need extra help and extra support, and really small class sizes mean they get even more individual support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In terms of evidence, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen the longer you can keep a young person in school the better the outcomes are socially, for their own progress in life and to hold down employment.â&#x20AC;? The 40th anniversary is also signiďŹ cant for the site itself, which has housed education since the mid 1800â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the fact that 63 High Street has always

been an education site is pretty signiďŹ cant,â&#x20AC;? Mr Wangman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While the Community College has been here for 40 years, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve actually had education on this site since 1857. The ďŹ rst school in the area was actually located here â&#x20AC;&#x201C; School Number 37, the Belvoir Common School.â&#x20AC;? The complexities of operating a not-for-proďŹ t organisation as a modern corporate business relies heavily on the connectedness that the organisation can achieve with its local community, sector peak bodies and government funding agencies. In a frequently changing environment, the AWCC seeks to remain ďŹ&#x201A;exible, responsive and engaged, with a steadfast belief in learning as a tool of empowerment and growth, providing opportunities, choice and improved quality of life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about providing services to a community at a cost-effective way, providing an array of services that sometimes wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be provided for, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about stepping out and meeting community needs.â&#x20AC;?

Big bypass for 44,000 tween Albury and Wodonga has benefited countless motorists in the past 10 years, with improved travel times between the major cities and greater safety,” Mr Aplin said. “Ten years on, maintenance of the bypass, as well as the responsibility of vegetation and infrastructure has been handed from Lend Lease back to Roads and Maritime Services. “Maintenance is an essential part

Ten years after the Hume Highway bypass at Albury first opened to traffic, figures show an average of around 44,000 people use the road each day. Albury MP Greg Aplin said the bypass was this month celebrating a major milestone and announced Lend Lease would hand the road maintenance back to Roads and Maritime Services. “The Hume Highway bypass be-

of the operation of any road, especially a major thoroughfare like the Hume Highway bypass, to ensure the safety of the thousands of motorists who travel on it. He said the Lend Lease would continue to work closely with Roads and Maritime to ensure the handover period ran smoothly and that any outstanding work was completed during this time.

An average of around 44,000 people use the Hume Highway each day.

Last edition This is the final edition of the Albury Wodonga NewsWeekly. The newspaper was started by a group of local shareholders just under eight years ago. The newspaper has provided an independent, community voice to local residents and has been an effective mass medium tool for many businesses in the local region over that time. To all shareholders, advertisers, readers and staff involved in NewsWeekly since its launch, we thank you for your support.

Put your hand up for youth council - and represent! Nominations are now open for the AlburyCity Youth Council. Young people aged between 14 and 18 who are passionate about representing the views of young people in Albury are encouraged to nominate. Mayor Kevin Mack said the youth council provided a great platform for young people to get their voice heard directly with council. “We’re looking for enthusiastic young people who want to have a say on the programs and services that impact them,” Cr Mack said. “We want to make sure council is adequately planning for young people, so it’s really important we hear what they have to say. Youth councillors play a really important role as advocates and spokespeople for their peers. “Apart from influencing the services and facilities we deliver to young people, it’s an excellent development opportunity for its participants. Youth council is a great way to learn problem-solving, bud-

geting, networking and team work." Youth councillors will organise an annual youth forum, which is used to determine the needs of young people and the issues they face in the region. Youth councillors help AlburyCity develop plans and strategies that make sure young people are represented in council’s decision-making process. Youth councillors can be self-nominated, nominated by an individual or by an organisation. There will be nine youth councillor positions, with a youth mayor and deputy youth mayor. The youth councillors will hold their position for a 12-month period, with an overlap period allowing handover to the next youth council. Nomination forms are available from AlburyCity Customer Service or online at: alburycity.nsw.gov.au/youthcouncil Nominations close on 28 April 2017.

Revolting coal plan Protesters wearing dust masks gathered outside Albury’s Westpac Bank earlier this month to express dismay at the bank’s refusal to rule out a loan for the proposed Adani Carmichael coal mine in Queensland. Protest organiser Tracey Esler said the Adani coal mine would be the largest coal mine in Australia’s history. “There is enough coal in the mine to devastate the world’s climate if it was dug up,” Ms Esler said. “Time and again Westpac have pledged to keep warming below two degrees, but funding of this project will wreck the Great Barrier Reef, worsen global warming and threaten our health.” “I’ve long been concerned about climate change, but with my first grandchild on the way I’m motivated to do anything I can to prevent a climate catastrophe. “One day my grandchild will say ‘Nan, how did you let this happen?’ and I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could to prevent it.” Ms Esler said Adani had an appalling track record of corruption and environmental vandalism. She said 12 major international banks had refused to fund their Queensland project. “They realise Adani is untrustworthy and the mine will become a stranded asset due to falling global coal demand. Adani needs the support of one of our big four banks,”

she said. “NAB has refused a loan and the Commonwealth and ANZ have made similar noises. But Westpac is staying mum. They have already done $643 million in deals with Adani. “Could Westpac become the straw that breaks the camel’s back? The point of no return for our reef and planet?” Guest speaker at the rally Dr Rosie Saxton said as a general practitioner she had urged people to change habits now for long-term health benefits. “Smokers with a mild cough deny the risks of cancer and heart disease,” Dr Saxton said. “I see the planet as a living system, the lungs of which are choked with pollution, the arteries clogged and it’s developing abnormalities of temperature regulation. “My diagnosis is of a potentially terminal illness and my prescription is for urgent behaviour change. Smoking cessation’s long-term survival gain outweighs short-term withdrawal effects." According to Ms Esler, Westpac management has ignored hundreds of emails and letters on the issue. “Westpac are putting their reputation on the line. This protest is not a criticism of the Albury branch and its lovely staff. But we need to let them know what we think of Adani’s mine.”

Some shoes in search of a little sole Repair Cafe Albury-Wodonga will feature shoe sole glueing as a one-off service on Saturday 1 April from 10am to 1pm at the Sustainable Activity Centre, Gateway Island. “Most of us have experienced the disappointment when a sole separates from a favourite pair of shoes,” Repair Cafe co-ordinator Lizette Salmon said. “Some of us have tried glueing it back together, in my case with mixed success. “Glueing soles is not rocket science, but I now realise there are some important elements to ensure success, such as cleaning and roughening the surfaces, using the right glue and waiting until it feels tacky before pressing the surfaces together. “We’ve had some Repair Cafe visitors inquire about shoe sole glueing, so we’ve decided to offer it as a special oneoff service in April.” The glueing station will be overseen by Terry Burns with assistance from Russell Renfrey. Both have been Repair Cafe generalist repairers and garden tool sharpeners since it opened in November 2015. “I’ve been a jack of all trades for many years, but am new to shoe glueing,” Mr Renfrey said. “I’ve watched my father glue shoes together and am looking forward to helping Terry. It’s always good to pick up new skills, which is what the Repair Cafe is all about. “Terry will be there to show people how to prepare the shoes, apply the grip contact adhesive, clamp and then advise on curing. “We’ll be encouraging people to do most of it themselves, so in future they’re able to do it independently.” Visitors should note that shoe glueing works best in shoes with a flat sole. Soles with a vertical edge at the toe will need to be clamped by hand and are at greater risk of detaching. “Steps for glueing shoe soles, including recommended glues, will be posted FOR LEASE

Russell Renfrey inspects a shoe with a separated sole. on our Facebook page shortly after the Repair Cafe session,” Ms Salmon said. To date almost 700 people have visited Albury-Wodonga’s free Repair Cafe, a community-driven initiative helping people fix furniture, bikes, battery-operated appliances, clothing, books and jewellery, as well as sharpening small

garden tools. Repair Cafe Albury-Wodonga is open 10am-1pm the first Saturday of each month, except January, at the Sustainable Activity Centre, Gateway Island. For more information visit Facebook or ecoportal.net.au.

Sod-turning for MPS By Monique Kuzeff

Wednesday, 29 March, 2017 Page 5

$196,400 of opportunity By Monique Kuzeff

The first sod was turned by Albury MP Greg Aplin to make a start on construction on the new Culcairn MultiPurpose Service (MPS). Following the award of the construction contract to Zauner Construction, the ceremony marked the beginning of construction at the Balfour Road site with work scheduled to be completed in late 2018. The new Culcairn MPS will include the construction of a new building that will complement the existing Kiltearn House Residential Aged Care facility, which will be retained. The new facility will incorporate an increase in residential aged care beds from 22 to 28; larger residential aged care rooms with dedicated ensuites; enhanced staff facilities including staff accommodation; a modern and larger reception area; dedicated activity spaces; modern inpatient rooms; and enhanced community health. “The redevelopment of the Culcairn MPS is an important achievement for Culcairn and the surrounding communities,” Mr Aplin said. “The Holbrook MPS has been completed, Culcairn is commencing and next in line is Tumbarumba.” “These projects represent up to $63.5 million in investment by the NSW Government into our regional health services.” The Culcairn MPS project is part of a greater $300 million program of works to upgrade existing or build new MPS facilities in a number of rural and remote communities across NSW. The MPS model tailors healthcare needs for the local community by integrating health, aged care services, and emergency services, to provide flexible health service delivery - from primary health care to acute and residential aged care.

A massive $196,400 was recently donated to Albury Wodonga Health (AWH) from their two opportunity shops. The funds, which were raised over the last two years, will largely benefit the surgical department enabling it to purchase much-needed equipment, including ear, nose and throat items valued at $61,700 and a CystoNephro videoscope valued at $46,000. Community health has also been able to purchase an audiometer to test infant and children’s hearing, valued at $6500. The donation helps to support the capital equipment program for items not funded by the government. The Wodonga Opportunity Shop, located at 43 High Street, has had a long association with the Wodonga Hospital. In 1989, the Wodonga shop made its first donation of $25,000; in 2016-’17 the donation is $126,900. The Albury Opportunity Shop, located in Swift Street, was opened in September 2014, this year making their first donation of $69,500 to the health service. AWH Volunteer Coordinator Elaine Hill said the shops had a combined number of 69 volunteers that did all the work. “We are very grateful for the community support,” she said. “Without the high quality donations that the community provide it would not generate these funds for such a great cause.” AWH CEO Leigh McJames said: “The community continues to pleasantly surprise us with their generosity.” “$196,400 significantly increases our ability to provide the services and care our community deserves.”

When play is serious Wodonga Council is taking the future of play seriously, calling on the community to provide feedback on a draft strategy for the city’s playgrounds. The draft Playground Strategy 2016-'20 was endorsed by councillors at their monthly council meeting last Wednesday, signalling the start of a two-week community consultation period before its adoption. Cr John Watson said the strategy provided ongoing direction to playground development and renewal in the city, shaping the next four years of decision-making. “Wodonga is very fortunate to have some fantastic playgrounds across the city,” he said. “The strategy will guide the provision, development, management and investment in outdoor play spaces to ensure variety of play spaces and equipment for all ages.” It also aims to develop criteria and principles for effective play provision, including play value, demand, supply and distribution.

“Play is critically important to all children in the development of their physical, social, mental, emotional and creative skills,” Cr Watson said. “It’s important we foster and support play opportunities, which is what the proposed strategy is aims to achieve.” Wodonga has an existing model for play provision that is both successful and unique. It considers the perspectives of many stakeholders involved in the process, such as engineering, infrastructure, sport, community planning and family youth. The revision of the strategy will ensure its continued success in catering for the ongoing needs for children in our growing community, and the management of the 72 public playgrounds currently overseen by the council. Residents interested in providing feedback on the draft Playground Strategy 2016-'20 and the accompanying play environments in Wodonga should visitmakewodongayours.com. au for more information.

Corryong’s finest By Monique Kuzeff Corryong’s very own country music artist Fanny Lumsden and her band The Thrillseekers are certainly making a name for themselves nationally. Recently Lumsden was awarded the CMC New Australian Artist of the Year. “This award is huge, because we are self-managed and we’ve done everything ourselves and to have the support of our peers and the fans out there who voted for us and everyone who’s been sharing this story,” Lumsden said. “It’s fantastic, it’s a really big deal - it’s really exciting.” The 29-year-old country girl, who boarded at Scots School in Albury, had previously been nominated for three Golden Guitars but was “thrilled” to take home the award. “This award has really given us a boost both in the industry and the public eye,” she said. “There are, of course, people who haven’t heard of us yet and we are putting out a new album this year so, hopefully, there will be a few more that catch on.” Lumsden said her new album was expected to come out later in the year and that all her songs had been written and were in the process of being recorded. “I have the songs ready to go and we’ve booked in a time to record them in the next few months, as we are looking to release the album later this year. “The record is crowd-funded and is literally made possible through the support of the community and

people getting behind us, so I can’t thank them all enough.” Lumsden and her band will again be hitting the road pretty heavily this year as they head out on a tour of the country between March and June and perform at house concerts in-between. Later on in the year she will also be kicking off the Country Halls Tour, which will see her and her band travel through regional towns across the country. To find out more about Fanny Lumsden’s movements, visit www. fannylumsden.net.

Fanny Lumsden won the CMC New Australian Artist of the Year.

Time to bring out our best Wodonga Council is calling for nominations for the 2017 Wodonga Volunteer of the Year awards for people who have made an outstanding contribution to the community in the Wodonga region. Wodonga Mayor Cr Anna Speedie said more than 300 people volunteered across Wodonga for various reasons. Some volunteer to contribute or give back to the community, others as part of their studies, to get some experience that may lead to employment, to socialise or network, or as part of their workplace. “Volunteers add enormously to our city, and really help to strengthen the fabric of our community,” Cr Speedie said. “They also make a significant financial contribution - for every dollar invested in volunteerism there is an estimated economic return of $4.” In 2016-'17 the council invested $90,000 in volunteerism - this equates to $360,000 of value to the organisation and the community. This includes human capital but also the physical, social and symbolic capital that volunteers contribute either to an organisation or the community. In Wodonga, volunteers help out at many different venues, events and activities from tree plantings to youth committees, the waste transfer station and the visitor information centre. They vary widely in age, background, skills, and availability - and each one is valued enormously. In 2016 Wodonga Council hosted its inaugural Volunteer of the Year Awards with tributes for the best individual (Sarah Negrin), team (Wodonga Storm Junior Rugby League’s Sal Kaiwai and Ryan Dodd) and across the three categories of community service (Megan Pearce and Geoffrey Smith), sport/recreation (Kyle Brereton), and environment/science/technology (Don Grant). Nominations close 5pm on Friday, 21 April, with the awards presented at the Volunteer Fair on Saturday, 13 May during National Volunteer Week.

Albury Wodonga

On behalf of The Pet Foundation and Petbarn Albury, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the local Albury-Wodonga community for their generosity in supporting The Pet Foundation’s annual Tree of Hope Appeal, which raised muchneeded funds for animals in need. I am thrilled to announce that the local AlburyWodonga community contributed $2788 towards the appeal. Collectively, we were able to exceed last’s years fund-raising total of $633,000 and raise a massive $1,015,763 nationally - a truly outstanding achievement. All funds raised through the appeal will go directly to helping local animal shelters continue to

Some of these organisations include RSPCA, Cat Haven, Lort Smith, Cat Corner and Pet Haven Foundation, just to name a few. The appeal, which kicked off in November, ran across Petbarn stores nationally for six weeks and encouraged Aussies to dig deep by dropping into their local Petbarn Albury store and purchasing a $3, $5 or $10 Christmas decoration. With the festive season a busy time for animal shelters, the annual appeal was a simple way for Aussie pet lovers to show their support.

Terrible memory I was reading about the emergency services be-

ing so upset after finding the young missing boy in the Murray River after an unfortunate incident with his mother recently. In 2005 I was a CFA first emergency responder first on the scene of a double fatal vehicle incineration of a mother and baby on the Great Alpine Road (former Ovens Highway) and that never goes away. I was on the end of a firehose and after the flames and smoke receded there was a charred figure of a person in the driver’s seat and I was later to learn from ambulance officers that there was a child in the back seat also. The CFA treated me like a person with leprosy after that and they didn’t give me any help whatsoever to get over this terrible memory. Name and address supplied.

Storm clean-up gets underway Wodonga Council is actively responding to damage caused by Monday night’s severe storm, including trees down, limbs across public infrastructure, and blocked roads and footpaths. Wodonga Mayor Councillor Anna Speedie said the council was organising crews and contractors to begin the clean-up first thing on Tuesday morning. “We are currently assessing what damage we have sustained across Wodonga, with several cars and fences damaged by our trees,” Cr

Speedie said. “The strong winds moved through a central corridor from west Wodonga out to Killara and were very destructive. “Wodonga Council crews are responding and dealing with the higher priority trees and clean-up first. “We are supporting the CFA, SES and any other community organisation in helping our community recover from this severe storm. “I would also like to thank the community for their assistance - we’ve seen many in-

stances of neighbours helping neighbours.” The Waste Transfer Station at 29 Kane Road will accept any storm debris material for free until 4pm this Sunday, 2 April. Members of the public should report any councilrelated damage by phoning Wodonga Council on (02) 6022 9300. The council thanks the community for its understanding and patience as staff prioritise the clean-up of our city.

Corryong set to come alive The small Upper Murray town of Corryong is gearing up for what is set to be another huge weekend celebrating horsemanship, live music, art, poetry and community over Thursday 30 March to Sunday 2 April. In its 21st year, The Man From Snowy River Bush Festival (MFSR) was born as an event to truly reflect ‘what the Man From Snowy River poem meant to our Australian horsemen and women’. Now, 22 years on, it boasts a jam-packed program including a diverse range of events with the MFSR Horsemanship Challenge - where 80 of the best riders in the country compete for the $80,000 prize pool and the prestige of joining the MFSR Challenge Legends board, at its heart. It also features the exhilarating ‘Man From Snowy River’ re-enactment where the poem is brought to life in an action-packed display of horsemanship, poetry and music. Other attractions include the art and photography exhibition, street parades, markets, fantastic food, bush poetry, working dog championships and loads more. It’s a festival where truly everyone’s tastes are catered for. “We are so proud to be able to celebrate our unique bush heritage and its culture here in Corryong every year and cannot wait to kick off what our hard-working community has helped to bring together for the 21st festival!” festival co-ordinator Jenny Boardman said. A number of new events have been added to this year’s festival including the trainers challenge, where three horsemen showcase their training skills with three young unhandled horses over three days of the festival. The MFSRlive line-up will feature performances from The Wolfe Brothers, The Bushwackers, Caitlyn Shadbolt, Deep Creek Road, Pete Denahy, Brad Butcher, Melody Moko and Danny Phegan. As a predominantly volunteer-run festival and with the profits being donated back into the community of Corryong through a grant funding program, the festival focus is supporting the community that supports it.

There will be plenty of time to relax around the campfire.

‘Life’ still in horror tales Life (MA15+) Starring: Ryan Reynolds, Jake Gyllenhaal

(G)

Jake Gyllenhaal goes for a spin in Life - and it's not for the faint-hearted. many, many horrible twists. Much fun, good times and larrikin hijinks do not ensue. Last word to my son, a challenging 15 years of age, who penned this remarkable - and accurate - review: “That was hands down the most depressing, catastrophic

and intimidating movie I have ever seen. It s**** on your emotions and just when you think maybe you will get over it, it pushes you off a cliff ... onto rocks ... to die a slow, painful death ... not even kidding." That’s my boy. - Jason Beck

COMMENCES THURSDAY 12344585-HM13-17

Forget this little gem if you’re looking for science fiction - it’s straight-out horror. It’s hard to know where to start with “Life", a movie with B Grade monster sensibilities, an A Grade cast ... and an Aplus monster. That said, it does achieve a remarkable monster indeed. If humans are most scared of spiders and snakes, then this creature feature does an enviable task of combining both horrors into the sum of many, many nightmares. Oh ... and did I mention it’s smart as a whip, as well? Grown in a lab on the International Space Station from a scrap of Martian soil, the early warning comes when one of the crew notes that all cells are identical - so it’s “all muscle, all eyes and all brain". Yep, you just know that’s going to go well. Inevitably, the not-so-friendly Martian gets out of the lab and what ensues is an Alien remake with a twist. Make that

Local Sport Riding off into the future By Stephen Whitehouse Last Saturday night’s final round of the sky lift series held at the Lincoln causeway complex capped off an exciting summer of racing for the local Albury Wodonga motorcycle club. Held over three rounds, it provided handlebar to handlebar racing and was a credit to all involved, both riders and club officials. It showcased the depth of riding talent here on the Border with classes for beginner riders on PW50s right up to racing of the highest standard from the

pro open 450s. The 10-lap final on Saturday night proved a fitting finale with exciting and close racing right to the finish line. Albury Wodonga is privileged to have a facility like this in our town and I encourage everyone to support the local club in their endeavours. Motocross is now also in full swing, with many local riders successfully competing in the opening rounds of the northern regions motocross titles and with Albury Wodonga due to host round five on 7 May, it will be a perfect

opportunity to slip down to the causeway and see how much riding talent this area produces. The club will also be hosting round four of the Victorian motocross championships later this year on 24 June, so there is plenty of excitement coming our way later this year. On a slightly different note, on the previous weekend Brenda and I joined over 500 fellow motorcyclists for the annual black dog ride which left from the Wangaratta airport and covered approximately 240 kilometres of our great roads for riding motorcycles in

the north-east of Victoria, before finishing with a lunch stop at the Myrtleford reserve and a silent auction. This event raises funds and awareness for suicide prevention and mental health and I believe showcases what I love about motorcycling, where we all get together to support a great cause while enjoying what we love, riding and comradeship! Moto GP has kicked off for the year and what a year it promises to be with Maverick Vinales setting the early pace in qualifying and following it up with his first victory for the Movie Star Ya-

maha factory team in Qatar. Aussie rider Jack Miller also recorded a good result, finishing in eighth place, a great start to the year for Jack. This year promises to be even more exciting and eventful than last year’s championship. In summing up in my final column, I wish every one of you regardless of the style or type of motorcycle you ride, safe and enjoyable riding wherever that might be in this exciting world of ours!

Maclean takes speedway line honours Goulburn Ovens Sedan Association racing headed to Speedway Wangaratta on 18 March for the last round of the three round ‘Ryan’s Refrigerated Transport’ Wangaratta Track Series. Current Victorian Champion Ross Maclean took the line honours on the night, however it was Frank Gordon who took the prize when he secured the overall series win based on his consistent results. Gordon (# 92 Gasweld Tool Centre - Commodore) came out on top of Chelsea Cornelius and Clint Henderson after they failed to finish the feature race on the final night of the series. Gordon and Mitch Watts (#54 Ace Smash Repairs Leeton - Commodore) began the first qualifying race swapping position at the front of the field through turn one and two of lap one before Gordon and then Stuart Balins spun. Watts went on to secure a great win in front of Cornelius, Maclean, Tom Barnard, Gordon who gained a few positions back after his spin then Nathan Shortis, Henderson, Joel Copeland and Todd Atkin (#78 GrainLink - Commodore). A welcome return to racing for Peter Schmetzer when starting from the front row of the second heat of the night, he used all his experience to put his Commodore out front and on the way to an all the way victory ahead of Sam Davey (#93 Hartnett Transport - Commodore),

Harry Walliss, Jamie Atkin, James Powell, Jack Milthorpe and Scott Callendar (#24 Jindera Automotive - Falcon). Henderson from the front row put all the power of his LS1 Chevrolet engine to good use in the second round, securing a win ahead of Maclean (#27 Dunkley Paint and Panels - Commodore), Shortis, Cornelius, Watts, Barnard and Todd Atkins with the returning Mick Bunt and Gordon non-finishers. Bowers, who is also returning behind the steering wheel after a little time off the scene took a win in the fourth qualifier with Powell (#45 James Powell Mechanical - Falcon) in second spot then Callendar, Jamie Atkin, Copeland and Davey. Schmetzer and Wallis were marked down as non-finishers. Henderson (#21 Corowa Kitchens and Cabinets - Commodore) didn’t have such a good race in his final qualifier as he tried to make an outside pass in

turn two around a backmarker while leading and put his car into the concrete wall, tearing the front end apart. Shortis went on to secure the win from Cornelius (Cornelius Classic Panels - Commodore), Maclean, Watts, Barnard and Todd Atkins. Powell, who has changed to racing his brother's Falcon for the rest of the Goulburn Ovens Sedan Association season then justified that call with a last heat win ahead of Callendar, Bowers, Jamie Atkin, Copeland and Davey. After the six heats Powell had qualified in pole position from Maclean, Cornelius, Shortis (#55 Stickemon Stickers - Commodore), Watts and Callender. It would be Ross Maclean while out of contention for the overall Wangaratta track series win, who went on to take a strong victory in the final round of the series with victory ahead of James Powell, Thomas Bowers, Mitch Watts, Nathan Shortis, Gordon, Jamie Atkin, Callendar,

Barnard, Copeland and Davey. Racing in among the pack was very competitive for the night, with many of the drivers finishing back behind the leader taking to social media to express how much fun they had jostling for position. Hard luck for Chelsea Cornelius who potentially up until the end of the third round of heats had almost done enough to take the overall win, before her car broke down with a starter motor shortout while second in the feature. Frank Gordon from Leeton who did finish the final, had done enough over the three meetings to take the overall win from Cornelius and Clint Henderson who crashed out early in the night, damaging his front and rear end of the car extensively. The top five in the ‘Ryans Refrigerated Transport’ Wangaratta Speedway Series was Frank Gordon 271, Corowa club racer Cornelius 252, Henderson 241, Wangaratta club racer Nathan Shortis 205 and Mitch Watts 154. Gordon was pleasantly surprised in regards to the win. “When Dean (Dean Thompson Media rep) came over to tell me he was pretty sure I was in the top three and I better get down to the presentation, I was still uncertain. However to get the win in the series is a pleasing result for the effort Mark (his son) and the crew have put into our car. Thankyou to Wangaratta, the series sponsor and the Goulburn Ovens Sedan Association for working together to create this series.”

Warriors Albury Wodonga Dragon Boat Club.

Dragon boats not draggin’ their heels Warriors Albury Wodonga Dragon Boat Club started in September 2012 and is growing not only in numbers but success in its short time as a club. Last week capped off a big week in dragon boating for the Warriors, with great success at the Victoria State Dragon Boat Championships on the weekend and then on Tuesday 28 March with 190 students from eight high schools contesting the annual Schools Dragon Boat Challenge. Warriors weekend success at the Victorian State Titles held at the National Watersports Centre Carrum saw us bring home medals with two first placings in the Masters Womens 20s (200m and 500m), 2nd Master Opens 20s (200m), 3rd Masters Open 20s (500).

The team had been training hard and are ready now for the national championships which will be held at the Gateway Lakes, Wodonga commencing 19 to 24 April 2017. This year’s Annual Schools Event has been supported by a small grant from the council of Wodonga and will see 190 students from both sides of the Border participating in what provided some great competition and friendly rivalry at Gateway Lakes, Wodonga on Tuesday. It all started at 9.30am with medal presentations by Cr Anna Speedie that went until midday. Eight high schools participated in paddling instructions, practice sessions and culminating with heats.
