Hay fever alertMiserable year for sufferers as normal medications fail

By BLAIR THOMSONCASES of hay fever and asthma have sky-rocketed on the Border.

Local emergency departments have seen a substantial increase in people needing treatment for asth-ma and pharmacies are selling out of hay fever medication.

Dr Bruce Graham from the school of biomedical sciences at CSU in Wagga said pollen counts were the highest he had seen since starting the job in 2008.

“It’s the highest I’ve seen it in years,” he said.

“When the thunderstorms come through it picks up all the grains which explode and release granules that can be breathed right into the lungs, causing asthma.

“There’s certainly an issue in Wagga where we collect the pollen counts and you can be pretty sure it will be high in Albury because it has similar weather patterns.”

Albury Terry White Chemists owner Jim Cominos has seen a huge spike in people needing hay fever medication.

“It’s one of the worst areas na-

tionwide for hay fever sufferers,” he said.

“Every year I find people that move to Albury Wodonga and the wider area that have never suffered from hay fever and from October, leading up to Christmas, suddenly they feel miserable.

“We’re in a rural area surround-ed by land and a lot of Paterson’s Curse and a lot of grasses, and once that dries out those pollens really play havoc.”

According to Mr Cominos, many people have found the hay

fever harder to get rid of this year. “What I’ve found this year is

that anti-histamines are not help-ing people, they’re not strong enough on their own,” he said.

“People might sometimes need extra products to be able to control their symptoms, whereas in past years an antihistamine would usu-ally control the problem on its own.

“The other thing you find is that you’re selling out of products be-cause your selling patterns change.

“Products get cleared out in a few days.”

NewsWeekly spoke to several pharmacies reporting a similar sce-nario.

“It’s the busiest we’ve had it for several years,” Mr Cominos said.

Director of the Public Health Unit of Greater Southern Area Health Tracey Oakman said there had been a “significant increase” in people attending local hospitals with asthma symptoms.

“I think the import thing is that people carry their asthma medica-tion over the next couple of days,” she said.

The ‘Border’sown’ ailmentcauses chaos

NWeDItorIal

NEWS that medical practitioners and pharmacists are being run off their feet by people seeking relief from the symptons of hay fever will come as no surprise to liter-ally thousands of Border residents.

For the past month or so life has been almost a living hell for those who are regu-lar hay fever sufferers.

For some reason the good rains of win-ter and early spring have made the Border hay fever central.

In some ways this is nothing new.For years people who have moved

to this district from areas where hay fe-ver hardly exists, have found they have a whole new health issue from September to late December.

For most, the rapid improvement in the efficiency of hay fever relief medica-tion has allowed sufferers to go about their normal activities with a minimum of inconvenience.

But this year has been something dif-ferent.

Streaming eyes and noses have been a normal part of the lives of sufferers.

And medication, that in the past has worked well, has been almost useless.

The storms of this week will no doubt make a difference as pollens and seeds, especially from rye grass, have been knocked to the ground.

In the meantime, we can only hope life is not too unpleasant for sufferers.

Services train for real thing

By BLAIR THOMSONPOLICE and other emergency service per-sonnel joined together to battle a raging in-ferno this week.

Thankfully, the fire was part of a simu-lated training exercise aimed at improving the way local services respond to emergency situations.

Representatives from the police, fire de-partments, ambulance service and other groups had to work together in response to the bushfire emergency under Operation Re-mus.

Program co-ordinator Inspector Kevin Dodds said the skills learnt on the day would be vital to combating a real emergency.

“It’s very important that they work to-gether,” Insp Dodds said.

“It helps to ensure there’s good cohesion, good communication and good decision making.

“By preparing yourself a number of times in how you would respond to an emergency, people become more comfortable in actually performing that role.”

While the various groups regularly con-

duct their own training, responding to the simulated scenario has its own benefits.

“It has that element of realism and puts them to that higher standard of training,” Insp Dodds said.

“They do practise quite well and it gives them the assurance that they’re doing it right.

“This program took nine months to write, it has a lot of video and maps and interactiv-ity between the syndicates.

“It’s a simulated exercise rather than a desktop exercise.”

The training comes as the Border braces for a high bushfire danger period with grass and other plant material highly built up in the region.

“It’s timely,” Insp Dodds said. “This can ensure that if an emergency

does occur in NSW they’ll be better equipped to deal with it.

“This is the first time the training exercise has come to Albury following a visit to Wagga last year.”

The program used a hi-tech video and computing system designed for use at the Sydney Olympics and counter terrorism.

Neighbourhoodhouse spreadsword to Kiwis

Enjoy a calmingstart to the day

BIRALLEE Neighbourhood House will share the knowledge it has gained from its Our Table To Yours/Our Garden To Yours projects in New Zealand this month.

People can check out the house’s Face-book page (facebook.com/Birhouse) to keep up-to-date with its trip from Novem-ber 12 to 19.

You can also like the page to see what courses are available.

The projects combined deliver around 120 freshly cooked meals to those in the community who need assistance includ-ing people who are unwell, palliative care, Ronald McDonald’s Family Room, churches and disadvantaged people.

The service is free and completely run by volunteers who have varied roles from helping to keep the vegetable garden go-ing through to delivering the meals.

Birallee Neighbourhood House co-or-dinator Di Mant and treasurer Sue Slater will head to Gisborne, New Zealand to-gether to share the project.

The pair is paying for their own travel costs for the trip, which shows how dedi-cated the committee is at Birallee Neigh-bourhood House.

“We will be giving a series of papers and talks on our projects,” Ms Mant said.

“The trip was organised by a senior so-cial worker at the Gisborne Hospital.

“We will present to the hospital board, indigenous groups and other interested groups.”

shaRING: Di Mant will share her project in Wodonga with groups in New Zealand.

By BLAIR THOMSONA NEW fine dining restaurant will open 14m above Dean Street next Friday (November 18).

Azotea, which means “roof terrace” in Spanish, is the final stage of a $3m renovation at the Albion that was conceived al-most five years ago.

Albion co-owner Brendon Cooper said there had already been a lot of interest in the res-taurant.

“We’re really happy with the way it’s turned out,” he said.

“There’s already a few nights that are booked out which is nice.”

The restaurant will serve meals ranging from $32 to $42 and have a wide ranging tapas menu.

“It’s based on the whole ex-perience of coming up and hav-ing a meal and having a drink,” Mr Cooper said.

“There are a lot of choices … you could have a six course meal up here our just end up having tapas.

“But it is geared more to-wards food than coming up and just having a drink.”

Mr Cooper is hopeful the res-taurant can weather the tough economic conditions putting the pressure on businesses.

“It’s always going to play on your mind,” he said.

“The economic times are a lot different now than when we first started this venture the best part of 4½ years ago.

“We were sort of locked into

it, we had our finances locked in back then.

“We’ve had to do a few things differently based on where the economy was at, but our theory is that if we can get through the next couple of years, things should only get easier.”

Azotea, which features 360 degree views taking in the monu-ment and mountains, will be open from 5pm from Wednesday to Saturday and from 9am on Sunday through to a late lunch.

“There’s probably been about 10 new staff that we’ve hired specifically for this,” Mr Cooper said.

“It’s good to have a few Al-

bury people involved in it who’s whole lives are food and their whole aim is to sort of make it as good a food experience as they could come up with.

“We’ve spent the last few weeks fine tuning everything and making a few changes and we’re really happy with where we’re at.”

Mr Cooper said strict plan-ning regulations and fire proof-ing the building had made the project quite difficult.

Other renovations at the Al-bion included the downstairs area and upgrading the second level for live music and func-tions.

Tough times claim well-known Border pet store

By BLAIR THOMSONDEAN Street pet store K9-Catfish will close for business tomorrow after more than 20 years in operation. The family-owned store has struggled to stay profitable in a tough economic climate, forcing the business to close, accord-ing to owner Dr Arthur Frauen-felder.

“It’s a sad day,” he said. “Nobody wants to admit de-

feat, but that’s the way it is.“The main thing is that we’re

making sure that the staff are looked after.

“All of the staff are sad to see the store go but they realise that despite their efforts and the promotions we’ve had, it’s good business to close down now be-fore it gets worse.”

All five staff employed at the store have found new jobs.

Dr Fraunfelder had spent the

past year looking to restructure the business but decided two weeks ago to shut the store.

“We haven’t been struggling to compete with the big stores, we’ve been restructuring, look-ing at what our buying patterns were but realised that in this cur-rent economic climate the small-er family orientated stores aren’t able to compete as easily as it has been in the past,” he said.

“We’re just not able to con-

tinue at a loss.”The store has held a sale

since announcing the closure, with hundreds of customers snapping up remaining stock.

Dr Frauenfelder expects to shut K9-Catfish tomorrow and sell the store fittings.

“We wanted to give our loyal customers a chance to come in and clear the store out by selling everything at 50 per cent off.”

Fish are the only pets left.

‘Jugs’ to wind up successful culture series

THE last event of the Café Culture Series 2011 features the four piece band “Jugu-larity” also known as “the Jugs”.

The band has been performing nation-ally and internationally for over 23 years and features Bruce Stephens, Gavan Mc-Carthy, Ernie Gruner and Peter Vadiveloo.

They play an energetic mix of folk, jazz, blues, lounge, rap and gypsy music in comedy-cabaret style.

They can be serious, silly, romantic, rousing or funny.

The roaming Casanova approach of the lead singer ensures that the audience is involved throughout the show.

Wielding their guitar, double bass, violin, harmonica, kazoo and percussion instruments as well as their combined voices, Jugularity create a light hearted, celebratory atmosphere synonymous with jug band music and a fitting end to a di-versely rich year of live shows.

The Café Culture Series is delivered by Just Shows to Go and tours throughout Regional Victoria. The program for 2012 will be announced during interval at the performance.

The show is presented by Arts Wo-donga and is supported by the Victorian Government through Arts Victoria and the Community Support Fund.

The event will be held at Arts Space Wodonga on Sunday, November 20, at 5pm.

Bookings at Arts Space Wodonga – phone 6022 9600.

Tickets will be available at the door if not sold out.

FINalE: Jugularity will wind up the 2011 Cafe Culture series.

Charity hopes to attract volunteersCOUNTRY Hope is urgently seeking volunteers to become part of its Al-bury team.

The Country Hope Trust provides support to families with children di-agnosed with cancer and other life threatening illnesses.

It recognises that childhood cancer and other life threatening ill-nesses place incredible stress on the family.

For this reason members are dedicated to developing holistic sup-port that addresses the needs of the entire family.

Volunteers are an essential part of the organisation.

The organisation is looking to de-velop several key areas for volunteer-ing with Country Hope in Albury, including a fund-raising committee and team, an events management

team, and a marketing/promotions and an administration team.

Other areas for volunteering in-clude the annual camp as a carer for the children (training provided) or in the many other aspects of camp life.

A drop-in information afternoon for those interested in volunteering with Country Hope will be held on November 23, from 4-6pm at The Stable Bar, Soden’s Hotel, Albury.

Guadalupe totake new role

A NEW administrative block for Mercy Cen-tre Lavington will be opened at the former Guadalupe House at Thurgoona on Sunday.

The ceremony will start at 11am with Welcome to Country, Eucharist and blessing of the buildings.

The official opening will take place at 2pm

Guadalupe House, which was originally St John’s Orphanage and run by the Sisters of Mercy, was recently purchased by Mercy Centre, a service for those with disabilities also run by the Sisters of Mercy.

The house has been fully redeveloped and renamed Anne’s House to honour the founder of St John’s Orphanage, Sister Mary Ignatius (Frances Anne) Murphy.

Sister Ignatius founded the Sisters of Mercy in Goulburn from Westport, Ireland in 1859, came to Albury in 1868 and founded the Sisters of Mercy in Olive St, before found-ing the orphanage in 1882.

She died at St John’s in July 1901. The Board and staff of Mercy Centre wel-

come visitors to the function.

GRADUATING students head-ing to 2011 schoolies celebra-tions should scrub up on their consumer rights and take some basic but important precautions when planning their activities, according to Greg Aplin.

The member for Albury said schoolies can easily end up as out-of-pocket consumers if they fail to do their research and ne-glect the fine print when pur-chasing goods and services.

“For many young people this will be their first experience looking after a holiday budget and paying their way,” he said.

Young and inexperienced consumers need to be aware of their rights and responsibilities, particularly when it comes to booking travel and accommoda-tion.”

New South Wales Schoolies runs from November 26 to De-cember 11.

More than 70,000 NSW Year 12 students will graduate this year and many are expected to converge on popular locations including Byron Bay, the NSW south coast, the Queensland Sunshine and Gold Coasts, Fiji, Bali and Vanuatu.

Mr Aplin advised students booking accommodation with friends to be sure to ask how many are allowed to stay in the room as failure to do so can leave you far from home without a roof over your head.

With so many young people together in one place, scammers and con artists see the young-sters as the perfect prey for their illegal activities.

Cup day holidayreview

Iconic restuarant to have ‘exciting new future’

Fonzies fades into historyBUSINESS owners are being asked their opinion on the half day holiday granted for the Albury Gold Cup.

Due to changes to the NSW Public Holiday leg-islation, Albury Council is required to nominate whether to retain the Al-bury Gold Cup as a half day public holiday or as a local event day.

The decision relates to the nature of the holi-day, not whether it con-tinues.

The council has asked Albury Northside Cham-ber of commerce to can-vas its members for their views on this issue.

Further information can be found on the web-site – www.alburynorth-side.com.au/chamberac-tivities/ Albury Gold Cup Carnival.

The chamber will be taking feedback from its members until Wednes-day, November 16, by phoning 6023 0100 or by email to [email protected]

The matter will also be on the agenda for discussion at the Albury monthly meeting on Tuesday, November 15.

By BLAIR THOMSONDEAN Street restaurant Fonzies has been sold.

The American diner-themed business, which featured a range of memorabilia including a statue of Elvis Presley, shut this week and has had its windows blacked out.

It will be stripped and re-opened as a new restaurant.

Owner Ben Sudano said an “ex-citing” new food outlet would be opening in the building.

“They’re doing something new and exciting in there, something which Albury’s never seen before,” he said.

“The owners don’t want me to say what it is at the moment, but there’s going to be a different theme, it’s all going to change.”

Mr Sudano had run Fonzies, which was formerly a Lebanese cafe, for three years.

“I built it myself,” he said. “I had a dream one night and I

woke up and I built it and Fonzies is laid out exactly as it was in my dream.

“Nobody there knew me as Ben, they all knew me as Fonzy.

“We appreciate all the customers and we want to thank them for their custom over the years.”

Mr Sudano said he would help set up the new restaurant with its new owners, who have moved to the area from interstate.

“The theme will no longer be rock and roll,” Mr Sudano said.

“It’s going to be something a bit different.” ClOsED: Fonzies has closed and will re-open as a different business. picture: BlaIR ThOMsON

CSU joins study of

Koorieducation

ExPLORING the experiences of how Aboriginal children in ur-ban areas move into school is the focus of a major research project that includes two senior educa-tion researchers at Charles Sturt University.

Professors Sue Dockett and Bob Perry from the Murray School of Education at CSU in Albury-Wodonga will take part in $360,000 research funded by the Australian Research Council over three years.

Starting in 2012, the project will follow the progress of Ab-original children to the end of Year 2, in their communities in south-western Sydney, through the eyes of family, community and educators and the children themselves.

Titled “An ecological study of school transition and the early years of school for Aborigi-nal children in an urban com-munity”, the project builds on the earlier Gudaga study that tracked the health, development and service use of 125 Aboriginal children from birth to five years of age in the same location as the new project.

“These detailed data provide a unique opportunity to consider

the complex individual and com-munity factors that contribute to positive outcomes for Aboriginal children in their early school years,” Prof Dockett said.

“The project aims to fol-low this group of children into the early years of their school-ing, exploring their transition into school and mapping their achievements in light of previ-ously measured indicators of their earlier growth and develop-ment.

“We seek to document and analyse what constitutes a suc-cessful transition for an Aborigi-nal child living in an urban area.

“This will help educators and policy makers create tailored programs for these children and their families.”

The research is supported by state and local Aboriginal com-munity health and education organisations, and will influence education policies and practices for Aboriginal children, their families and communities.

The research team is led by Associate Prof Lynn Kemp and includes other researchers from the University of NSW.

The project is due to be com-pleted by the end of 2014.

Wodonga is leading way in recycling initiativesAS part of national recycling week Wodonga Council and Planet Ark are targeting car batteries, elec-tronic waste and office paper.

They say many householders and businesses are unsure of how to dispose of these materials.

“We are good recyclers of news-papers, aluminium cans and milk and juice cartons, however, what to do with e-waste is still the big-gest problem facing Australian households and businesses,” says Planet Ark’s manager of recycling programs Janet Sparrow.

“Our two recycling information services receive hundreds of thou-sands of enquiries a year with the largest group being about e-waste.”

Wodonga residents can find local recycling options on the Wodonga Council page of Planet Ark’s RecyclingNearYou.com.au website – a service which provides reuse, recycling and safe disposal information for more than 32 dif-ferent materials.

Wodonga Mayor Cr Mark By-att said the waste transfer station in Kane Road aims to recycle and

re-use, and saves tonnes of mate-rial each year from ending up in landfill.

“Wodonga is very lucky to have a diversion facility in the city,” he said.

“Items taken to the station are sorted and then sent on to recycle or re-use, or sold in the shop on-site.

“Wodonga Council is also a proud supporter of the Halve Waste campaign that aims to re-duce the amount of rubbish being taken to the Albury landfill site.”

Printer cartridges, mobile phones and batteries are three of the most common forms of elec-tronic waste and there are effective programs to deal with them.

Lake perfect setting for young sailorsJUNIOR numbers are on the increase at the albury Wodonga Yacht Club according to commodore, David stoffels.

The sport has received a boost recently with a full lake hume providing a picture

perfect setting for competitors.But it’s the junior ranks

that drive any sporting club and the weekend’s races and training programs proved young skippers are keen to get out on the water.

pictured is up-and-coming sailor, Cameron Mcpherson on his off-the-beach boat, Defacto.

Cameron has been returning consistent results this season but with competition growing through the ranks from

other juniors such as laura Thomson and Matilda and Olivia Richardson, to name just a few, the rest of this season’s junior racing is sure to be tightly contested.

Travelling minister back ‘home’ for seminarRAY Cowling last spent time in Al-bury-Wodonga almost 70 years ago – and he has fond memories of his early schooling at the Albury Prima-ry School.

Ray, who left the area in 1944 as a young man, has spent the last 44 years as a travelling minister. He re-turned last weekend as a speaker for a seminar attended by over 700 del-egates from the Riverina and Border areas.

Jehovah’s Witnesses have up-

wards of 150 seminars throughout Australia each year.

The seminar this past weekend lasted two days, covering a range of religious topics.

The theme chosen for this cur-rent series was “Let God’s Name Be Sanctified.”

The sequence of lectures, illus-trated parts and discussions con-cluded on Sunday with a talk given by Mr Cowling on the gathering’s theme.

Family stilllooking forNed’s plot

By BLAIR THOMSONTHE remains of outlaw bushranger Ned Kelly are likely to return to the North East.

Victorian Attorney-General Rob-ert Clark this week agreed to hand Kelly’s bones, minus his missing skull, to his descendants, who will select a suitable resting place for them.

Kelly’s great great nephew Leigh Olver, who’s DNA was recently used to identify the remains, told News-Weekly it was an “important step” for the family.

“It’s been a great decision made to hand the remains back to the family,” he said.

“It’s a logical conclusion to have him rest in peace in a place that’s very appropriate and dignified for him and something he would have wanted.

“It appears at this point in time that the bones will end up in the North East but nothing is set in concrete yet.

“But the general family consensus is that that general area is an appro-priate place for him.”

Mr Olver said some relatives thought Greta Cemetary was a suit-able spot.

“Ned’s mother’s buried there and Jim Kelly and a few other descen-dants,” he said.

“A lot of them are kept in un-

marked graves and kept quiet.“I know there are a lot of people

that want to have a public ceremony and that will be our next issue to deal with.”

Representatives from each branch of Ned’s siblings will decide on the resting place, whether he has a marked or unmarked grave and what the pub-lic’s involvement will be.

“I think the public in general will be interested in getting involved in some way,” he said.

“He’s waited 131 years to this point to find a resting place so it’s not that urgent to have him buried this week-end.

“There’s a lot to consider and it’s an ongoing saga.”

Wangaratta mayor and Kelly de-scendant Anthony Griffith was also keen to point out a decision on a rest-ing place was yet to be made.

“In all likelihood it will be in the weeks and probably months before he is buried,” he said.

“It’s a bit unprecedented to have such an old body returned and there’s a few legalities that we have to go through.”

The old Beechworth jail was raised as a final resting place but Mr Olver had previously said it probably wasn’t suitable.

Jazz night to

aidAsher

THE Jazz Basement will be the venue for a night to support young Asher Hayne on Satur-day.

Asher is in the Roy-al Children’s Hospital in Melbourne recover-ing from a 12½-hour operation to remove a brain tumour.

Parents Ian and Amy are staying in Ronald McDonald House to be with their son.

Mum Amy is a well respected singer and member of the Border musical scene and is a member of the Peter Massey Quintet and has also sung with Hidden Agenda.

Both bands will play at the Jazz Base-ment on Saturday night.

The music will start at 8pm with the bar open from 7.30pm.

Entry is $20 and $15 concession with all proceeds going to the Hayne family. REsTING plaCE: leigh Olver says the family is yet to decide where the final resting place

for Ned Kelly will be located. picture: BlaIR ThOMsON.

Student’s outward bound course means week with ...

No creature comfortsSEVENTY two Albury High School students have returned from a seven day wilderness ad-venture with valuable life lessons about perseverance and lead-ership as part of a continuing program with Outward Bound Australia.

The Year 8 students left their mobiles, iPods, makeup and other creature comforts back at home in Albury.

They then put their resilience to the test with a range of physi-cal, social and mental challenges aimed to take them out of their comfort zones in the bush sur-roundings of ACT’s Namadgi National Park.

The course offers a personal challenge to the students of their perceived limits and encourages them to push against the easy way out through challenges such as abseiling, rock-climbing, hik-ing and learning how to become self-sufficient.

The concept of leadership was also introduced to the Year 8s through navigation challeng-es where the students take turns navigating teams through the national park.

Student Darcy Larkin said the course has been a life chang-ing experience.

“Outward Bound has helped me become more independent, fitter and healthier,” she said.

“Everyone was so supportive and we made a great team.”

Michael Heran, another stu-dent who participated in the

course, said the week with Out-ward Bound was hard but taught him some important life skills.

“It was an amazing experi-ence that taught me the limits of myself and how to be independ-ent,” he said.

The Annual Albury High School Outward Bound course has become a rite of passage for the Year 8 students and, now in its eighth year, has been part of the curriculum since 2004.

To ensure the students are given equal opportunity to at-tend the course, The Australian

Outward Bound Development Fund offers support and funds to Albury High School and relies on the generous donations from members of the public.

Year 8 teacher Melissa Albert said the course is an important part of the student’s personal de-velopment.

“It’s a rewarding and posi-tive experience for the students which allows them to develop both physically and personally,” she said.

Outward Bound CEO Darren Black believes outdoor adven-

tures are crucial for the devel-opment of young Australians so they can discover, develop and achieve their potential.

“The course stretches stu-dents mentally and physically, but the challenge helps them grow,” Mr Black said.

If you would like to assist the continuation program and help give next year’s Year 8 students the opportunity to participate in the course, contact Outward Bound on 1800 267 999 or email Susan Scharf: [email protected]

ChallENGEs: The trip helped students phoebe Nicholson, Jasmine Bailey, alex Nero, sally Jenkins (back), Darcy larkin (front),Teagan Bennie, Isabel O’Riain, and Clemmie Bates, realise they can achieve anything if they try.

Community groups benefitfrom field days

EDUCATION, early childhood services, sporting clubs and community groups were beneficiaries of almost $250,000 from this year’s Henty Machinery Field Days.

Field Days chairman Ross Edwards said by providing essential services to the running of the three day event in Septem-ber, a variety of community groups ben-efit.

“We rely on community groups at the field days for tasks such as organising car parking, running the visitor gates, cater-ing, cleaning amenities, operating the bar, keeping the rubbish away … the list goes on,” Mr Edwards said.

“And we think this helps create the unique friendly atmosphere at Henty.”

Among the groups to benefit are Hen-ty Early Childhood Association; Culcairn, Osborne, Mangoplah and Henty football clubs; Henty Park Tennis Club; Culcairn Swimming Pool Committee; Holbrook and Henty Rotary clubs; Yerong Creek and Henty CWA; Henty Catering Asso-ciation; Henty Public School P&C Asso-ciation; Yerong Creek Public School P&C Association; St Paul’s Primary School; St Joseph’s Primary School; St Patrick’s Pri-mary School; Pleasant Hills Public School P&C Association and Walbundrie com-munity groups.

Alison Campbell, president of the Henty Catering Association which runs three food outlets, said the money raised in those sheds in 2011 was divided amongst the Henty Public School P&C Association, the Henty Medical Centre Committee and Billabong High School P&C Association.

The 2012 event is the 50th anniver-sary of the field days.

OUTDOORLIVINGAdvErtisiNg FEAturE

Enjoy life in great outdoorsAUSTRALIAN living is outdoor liv-ing particularly during this time of the year.

Spring, summer and autumn in Albury Wodonga are perfect for all outdoor activities.

That is why people place so

much importance on having a functional outdoor living area in their home.

Enjoying company while cook-ing a barbecue, children playing on the lawn or swimming, and wind-ing up the evening under the night

sky is what most families look for-ward to at the end of the working day and on weekends.

No longer is a table and a few chairs plus the barbecue enough.

Our outdoor areas today often open onto a pool or spa and many

of us have our own bar area plus outdoor settings and lounges.

And the big television screens (with pay TV connected) make sure the entertainment never stops.

The advertisers in this feature have a range of products that can

add to your enjoyment of your out-door area.

Look at their products and thoughts if you are planning a new outdoor living area, or just adding to what you already have for your family enjoyment.

IF you are of age pension age and receive a pension you will be able to earn up to $250 from employment each fortnight and it won’t be in-cluded in your income.

If your employment in-come is less than the $250 work bonus per fortnight, then the difference between this income and the $250 will be added to your work bonus balance.

If you are not working, the entire $250 is added to your balance.

Your work bonus balance starts from scratch on July 1, 2011 and can accumulate to a maximum amount of $6500.

It can be used to discount employment income above $250 in future fortnights.

The work bonus calcula-tion is in addition to the in-come free area.

The work bonus is an in-centive for age pensioners to remain in the workforce.

The change to the work bonus is designed to let you use up to the maximum dis-count of $6500 even if you only work occasionally.

Once you have a work bonus balance, you can work for short periods with little or no effect on your pension.

If you receive a transi-tional rate of pension, Cen-trelink will continue to com-

pare your rate (which has no work bonus) with the rate in-troduced in September 2009 (which includes the work bonus).

Once your transitional rate is no longer higher, you will move to the new rate permanently.

If you receive the transi-tional rate you should con-tact Centrelink to find out how it will affect your pen-sion before you start any paid work.

For more information on changes to the Work Bonus visit www.centrelink.gov.au or call the Centrelink Seniors line on 13 2300 or visit your nearest Centrelink office.

Changes to benefit elderlyDESPITE efforts to abolish the age limit of 75 for super contributions, the changes only apply to compulsory employer contributions, according to the Combined Pensiors and Su-perannuants Association.

Association policy co-ordinator Paul Versteege said that from July 1, 2013, the employee age of 70 at which employers no longer have to pay the super guarantee will be abolished.

Initially, the age would merely be in-creased to 75, but the Government changed its mind.

“It seems the Government responded to

Opposition accusations of age discrimina-tion and got rid of all super contribution age limits, but forgot to apply this to salary sacri-ficing and putting your after-tax savings into super to a maximum of $150,000 a year,” Mr Versteege said.

“While the mature age employment ef-fect of these changes is laudable, people over 75 are also concerned about putting their life savings into super where the investment re-turn is not taxed.

“CPSA calls on the Government to ex-tend the abolition of the age limit to all super contributions,” Mr Versteege said.

Is there a superwindfall for you?

MILLIONS of dollars in unclaimed super have been reported by Australian super funds.

Is some of it yours?Many people lose track of their super

over the years, particularly as they change jobs and addresses.

Super savings become “unclaimed” once a fund has not received contributions from the member for at least two years, and five years have passed since that member was successfully contacted.

Searching for unclaimed amounts is as simple as calling 13 3865. You can also log on to the Tax Office web site www.ato.gov.au

Team effort awin for aged care services

WODONGA Council’s aged care team in partnership with Wodonga TAFE’s aged care team recently took out the LGPro Aged and Disability Services Award in the Award for Outstanding Team Contribution.

The state award is a culmination of the council’s and TAFE’s work during the past five years.

Wodonga Council’s manager commu-nity support and aged care Debbie MacKin-lay said the partnership has focussed on the idea of incorporating Certificate III Aged Care and Certificate III Home and Commu-nity Care students into the Planned Activity Group and Home and Community Care as part of their learning around maintaining the psycho-social wellbeing of older people.

“This is a terrific example of two well-known organisations working together to in-crease client-care and help educate aged care professionals,” she said.

“The aged care team as well as many cli-ents have enjoyed working with the TAFE students and will continue to do so into the future.”

Wodonga TAFE’s manager community services and health, Jenny Gordon, is thrilled with the success of the program.

“This award celebrates a unique and sustainable partnership between Wodonga TAFE and Wodonga Council, which has mu-tual benefits for staff, students, and service recipients. It is certainly a win-win situation for all,” she said.

The activities currently in place between the council’s aged care team and Wodonga TAFE include:

• Undertaking the community care com-ponent of placement within the Home and Community Care team at Wodonga Coun-cil. These placements have led to a greater knowledge of and experience in the provision of HACC services in a practical sense’

• A greater awareness of HACC services in the community through class presenta-tions by community carers and staff from the council’s aged care team;

• Planning, resourcing and delivering ac-tivities through The Willows, a Planned Ac-tivity Group which provides meaningful pro-grams for frail aged people and adults with disabilities living in the community; and

• Undertaking interviews on behalf of Wodonga Council evaluating consumer satisfaction with HACC. This has led to im-provement of services.

pROUD: Residents of Kensington Gardens took pride in showing off their village to visitors.

Residents show off villageTHE facilities of Kensington Gardens were open for public inspection at a highly suc-cessful open day.

Visitors were greeted by a resident from Kensington Gardens and handed over a bag with more information about the village as well as some extra free goodies.

Residents accompanied visitors, show-ing them around the club house area, and answered questions and importantly gave a first hand account of life in the village.

Visitors also enjoyed a free sausage sizzle and people enjoyed a coffee, tea or a drink from the bar area, to give them the opportu-nity to experience the way the existing resi-dents enjoy life.

A bus service was provided to drive visi-

tors around the village.Radio station, 3SR 95.3 FM had a live

outside broadcast during Saturday.Feedback was very positive with one visi-

tor even emailing on Monday to congratulate the organisers on their efforts.

WORKERs: plenty of effort went in to making the day a success.

Plants that make a statement, either as a result of clipping or have a naturally striking form, have a place in every

garden, no matter what sort of style or design the gardener has adopted. They can enhance either a formal or infor-mal design by adding constructional elements to the garden planting. The trick is to use them sparingly.

Stand-out, or architectural plants, which create highlights in your garden, can be used in every way, maybe to lift an otherwise dull border with their form or interesting foliage. The shape alone might transform part of your gar-den, adding height and helping create the framework. They can certainly be planted to act as an individual feature plant, or else as an exclamation mark at the end of a bed, at your entrance, at the top or bottom of steps, or even to introduce a new part of the garden.

Architectural plants always have a distinct, strong form and this is as im-portant as colour. Their foliage is usu-ally attractive as well, either its shape or the colour. Flowers are often a bo-nus. Plants which are evergreen with strong structure can form the back-bone of your design because they are always there. This can be particularly

important in a cottage garden in which many plants only flower once a year, and others are deciduous.

A good idea when choosing an ar-chitectural plant for a particular spot in your garden, is to look at a black and white garden photo in which the plant features, so you can see how its form adds to the photo. You are not distract-ed by flowers and colour. Plants with good form stand out.

Architectural plants can be peren-nials, shrubs or trees. Many of them come originally from drier climatic regions which is good for us! Think of many of the succulents like yuccas and agaves. Their colour, the shape of their leaves as well as the texture of the fo-liage allow the plants to make a state-ment.

Among the most often used archi-tectural plants today are the ornamen-tal grasses because they are softer than so many plants. Not only do they have a defined shape, but they cause plants nearby to stand out. They can be used as a uniform border too.

Slender conifers are also used regu-larly to make a statement, especially in creating an avenue and guiding the eye towards something the gardener wants seen. Good examples are Juniperus

scopulorum “Skyrocket”, and where a tree is required, the Italian cypress, Cupressus sempervirens.

Hedges can be an architectural feature in any garden. They can divide the garden into rooms or else create the boundary. Hedges can be formal or informal, high or low, dense or allow-ing a glimpse into a new area, depend-ing which plant is chosen. Box (Buxus sempervirens) of course is one of the most popular hedging plants. It can be clipped into any shape, or to whatever height is needed.

Rosemary and lavender are two popular choices for hedging too. They offer the added benefits of flowers and fragrance, especially when they are freshly clipped. For a taller hedge, yews are the traditional plant used, but they are very well known as being very slow growers. Other conifers, such as Port Jackson pine or Leighton’s Green cypress, are being chosen instead.

Whatever the statement you want to make in the garden, and whatever size you imagine it being, there will be a suitable plant. Make sure it will be happy in the conditions which you have to offer or it will look neither healthy and happy, nor make a state-ment.

gArdEN tAsks:✓ Marigolds are a great annual

to plant. they are so bright and cheerful, enjoy our summer heat, and also have insect-repelling qualities, so if planted near fruit and vegetables they can help preserve your products.

✓ tomatoes will be healthier if dusted regularly with some product like Yates tomato and vegetable dust, which has both disease and insect control.

✓ some roses, like the rambling roses (e.g. the Banksias) only flower in the spring. Prune them after flowering finishes, and then feed them with something like dynamic Lifter Advance for roses.

✓ it is a good time to feed lawns

PLANTS THAT MAKE A

STATEMENT

whether it’s green, purple or white, now is the time to enjoy freshly cut

Aussie asparagus. It’s a unique, versatile and nutritious vegeta-ble and is a good source of folate, vitamins A,C and E, and dietary fibre.ASPARAGUS - NOW AN EVERY-DAY VEGETABLE

As recently as the early 2000s Australians considered fresh asparagus a “gourmet” veg-etable and delicacy to be eaten on special occasions. Today sup-plies are generous so it’s become an everyday vegetable.

Use this healthy ingredient in canapés, soups, entrees, sal-ads, mains and quick snacks. I’ve even tasted a sensational, silky white asparagus mousse filling in a tart.EASY COOKING METHODS

To stir-fry – cut green spears into 2cm diagonal pieces. Heat a wok and add peanut or vegetable oil. Add asparagus, finely sliced mushrooms, garlic, fresh ginger and shallots. Stir-fry for two minutes, or until crisp- tender. Add a splash of oyster

sauce and a little water and toss until asparagus is slightly glazed.

To barbecue, grill or roast – drizzle green asparagus spears with olive oil (add crushed garlic if you like) Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Throw on the barbie or grill or roast spears at 200 C, turning occasionally until aspar-agus browns and is just tender.

To microwave – put one bunch of green asparagus in a clean plastic freezer bag. Add 2-3 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil and ground pepper. Tie the bag very loosely. Microwave on high for two minutes or until as-paragus is just tender. To serve, cut bag open onto a plate, taking care as the bag will release steam when opened. Sprinkle with sea salt.

To serve asparagus cold for salads, cook trimmed green spears in boiling water until crisp-tender and drain. Then ‘refresh’ by plunging spears into iced water for two minutes only. Drain again and pat dry on paper towels. Cover and refrigerate.

Do this a day ahead so you are ready to whip up a salad in no time.

AsPArAgus ANtiPAstO(Serves 4)2 bunches green asparagus spears, trimmed4 roma tomatoes, diced½ cup fresh corn kernels, uncooked12 black olives1 tblspn chopped parsley or chives2 tblspns extra virgin Olive Oil1 tblspn lemon juice1 small clove garlic, crushedsalt and freshly ground black pepper200g haloumi cheese, cut into 5mm slices olive oil4 slices prosciutto lemon, for garnish

Plunge asparagus into a large pan of boiling water and cook for 1-2 minutes. drain and refresh spears under cold water. drain again and pat dry with paper towel.

in a medium bowl combine

the tomatoes, corn, olives and herbs. Add the olive oil, lemon juice and garlic. season with salt and pepper and toss gently.

Heat a spoonful of olive oil in a frying pan and cook haloumi for 1-2 minutes turning once until golden brown on both sides.

Arrange asparagus on a serving platter and spoon tomato mixture over.

Add haloumi, prosciutto and lemon and serve with crusty bread.PAUL’S WINE PICKAsparagus has a love affair with sauvignon Blanc – they are as well matched as Mickey and Minnie Mouse. if you like lots of tropical fruit, buy a New Zealand “savvy”. But for a few extra dollars, grab a sancerre or Pouilly Fume from the Loire valley (France). the combination will be hard to beat.

when Dr Christopher Penfold purchased the Magill Estate in 1844, he would have never en-

visaged the footprint he would leave on the Australian wine trade. A cen-tury later, Penfolds became the “play thing” of the big corporates including Adelaide’s Steamship Company and then Southcorp (now part of Treasury Wine Estates). Although Penfolds fo-cused on fortified wines in the first half of the last century, the 60s and 70s saw a dramatic shift to red wine production and a flirtation with pre-mium white varieties in the 90s.

I think I have more Penfolds reds in my cellar than any other maker, and I believe no other company has had a greater influence on wine drinkers in the past several decades.THE STAND-OUT

Grange Hermitage is Australia’s number one red wine, and justifiably so. Mostly, it seems indestructible in the bottle and rarely does it disap-point.

At a recent luncheon, I enjoyed a “flight” of four vintages of Grange, the star of which was a 1962 that was not only living, but still had years of life left.THE SPECIAL BINS

Max Schubert, the “inventor” of Grange, kept his early winemaking experiment secret from the Penfolds directors. In like fashion, other leg-

endary winemakers at Penfolds have since the 60s produced extremely small batches of handcrafted reds, us-ing premium fruit from selected vine-yards. Most of these wines were off the average drinker’s “radar”, as they were rarely seen in bottle shops and only occasionally in the auction scene. The 1962 Bin 60A Coonawarra Cabernet/ Barossa Shiraz is said to be one of the greatest Australian wines ever made.

At our special lunch, my generous friends produced four of these Special Bin wines, from 1980 through to 1990.

Each was remarkably fresh and complex, and all were wonderful ex-pressions of the loving care of the original winemakers.THE WHITES

Readers of this column will know that I encourage drinking of Aussie Chardonnay within five years of vin-tage, and for the better ones, certainly within 10 years.

In the 90s, Penfolds threw a squil-lion dollars at white winemaking, in an attempt to “break into” this obvi-ous gap in their product lineup. No ex-pense was spared and the iconic “Yat-tarna” was born to parents of perfect fruit and expensive oak. It started life at a 100 bucks and even at that pre-viously unheard of level, I suspect the Penfolds bean counters were wailing and gnashing their teeth at the cost of production. But the Penny whites have really never got off the ground. Sure,

they were yummy drops but Penfolds red wine fans did not quite “get it”.

Nonetheless, our recent luncheon enjoyed a “flight” of four Chardy’s (two Special Bins and two Yattarna’s), which were lovely to see. The 1994 and 1995 were, predictably, a little “tired” but the 2000 and 2004 were remark-ably fresh.

The bottom line? The rule hasn’t changed – buy Oz Chardonnays by all means, but drink them within 10 years.THE CURIOSITIES

My generous lunch companions managed to source two “sparkling” reds from the Penfolds museum stock (1961 and 1971). The bubbles had long gone but the base wine on the 1961 was incredibly fresh – an extraordi-nary experiment by Penfolds which, regrettably, they did not continue.

My own contribution to lunch was a 1967 “Sauternes” – one of only two sweet Special Bins made in my life-time. In brilliant condition it made a lovely foil to the savoury duck liver pate that accompanied. Alas, that was my only bottle – never to be seen again.THE GRAND FINALE

As if this sea of riches was not enough, my luncheon friends topped off the day with a 1945 “Grandfather” Tawny Port, and a 1964 Vintage Port – what a finale!THE STATISTICS

For the mathematically minded, the average age of the 21 luncheon bottles was 30 years, and the cumula-tive age 660 years!

I shudder to think what the auc-tion value of these Penfolds icons would have been but it was well into the thousands of dollars – I hasten to add that my friends did not pay that sort of money – in my case, the sweet wine was a gift and many of the other wines had been purchased years ago for much more reasonable amounts.

That said, the unbridled gener-osity of my friends continues to be a humbling experience. Their philoso-phy? Forget the auction price – what greater pleasure than to share their special drops with 10 likeminded wine lovers. The memory of the experience will last a lot longer than a cheque in the bank.AND THE FOOD?

Great wine demands great food – “La Maison” on the Causeway pro-vided seven courses that were beauti-fully matched to each wine “flight” – special mention should be made of the Moreton Bay Bug tortellini, and the “Duo of Lamb” which were stand out dishes – ask genial host Wassim (aka “Rocky”) Saliba to persuade his talent-ed chef Stacey to put them on for you one day – you won’t be disappointed.NExT WEEK: Wine humour – some cartoons quips and quotes for your amusement.

Sisters Celeste and Sophie Clabburn head the four piece band, singing songs about life in Australia.

“We were surrounded by country music when we were growing up because dad was always listening to it,” Celeste told News-Weekly.

“Growing up on a farm in the country, we were brought up like that and it stuck with us.

“We like to sing about Australia but I guess it’s more modern than say, Slim

Dusty’s stuff. “We’re coming from that tradition but

with a modern edge ... I think that’s how I would describe it.”

Despite winning a swag of awards amid heavy touring, the girls are happy enough to take things as they come.

“We’ve been doing music full time now for six years, I guess that’s what makes me think that we’re successful, the fact that we can continue to do it,” Celeste said.

“We don’t have any plans to go overseas or anything, we’re happy living in Australia.

“We’re really content with what we’re doing and as long as we can keep doing it and people keep enjoying the music, that’s all we want.”

boXoffIceBy BLAIR THOMSONMOVIE: In Time (M)DURATION: 115 minutes

TIME is currency in Andrew Nic-col’s new film.

It’s an intriguing idea. Rather than pay money for, say,

a bus fare, people instead pay two hours of their time.

Make a phone call and it will cost a minute, and a nice meal might cost a day or two.

People age normally until 25, at which point they’re given a year to live as shown by a glowing green clock on their left arm.

They must work in order to re-charge their time.

Hence the rich can live for cen-

turies while working class ghetto dwellers are constantly at risk of running out of time and dying.

Set in a bleak, dystopian future with a strong tinge of George Or-well’s 1984, this sci-fi action film stars Justin Timberlake as Will Salas, an ordinary man thrust into an extraordinary situation when he inherits a century from a suicidal man.

While that time is priceless, it makes him a marked man with gangs of time thieves constantly looking to twist people’s arms and suck the time out of them.

As Will uses his new wealth to travel through the time zones that separate the rich from the poor, he soon learns that the world is un-

equal and a conspiracy to segregate society is at hand.

The system is in fact rotten to the core.

For a few men to be immortal, many must die.

While the film is reasonably light-on in terms of futuristic gad-gets, the hi-tech cars (which sound like they have electric V8 motors) and scenery are both fascinating.

Gone are any artistic elements in buildings, instead replaced with huge, intimidating and utilitarian structures.

It’s one of the most unique re-leases of the year and an interesting film from start to finish.

By BLAIR THOMSONMORE than 12,000 people are set to pack into Gateway Lakes next Friday to watch reformed iconic rock act Cold Chisel blast out their hits.

Headed by legendary front man Jimmy Barnes, the band has been performing to packed audiences across the nation as part of the Light the Nitro tour.

Guitarist Ian Moss told News-Weekly the band members felt there was still plenty to be achieved in Cold Chisel.

“It’s the feeling of there being un-finished business and knowing that after all these years the band still has a lot to give,” he said.

“We got back together for a one-off show in 2009 and it felt so good and went so well that we thought we might as well keep doing it.

“We’ve been nicely surprised by the response to it.

“The tickets went on sale in July and Acer Arena was sold out in 20 minutes and Rod Laver Arena sold out in 30 minutes.”

Formed in Adelaide in 1973 un-der the name Orange, Cold Chisel gained a reputation for hard hitting

live performances at pubs through-out Australia.

Songs like Khe Sahn, Choir Girl and Flame Trees gathered the band a huge following, led by Barnes’ pow-erful voice.

Despite their huge success, ten-sions simmered between band mem-bers and they called it quits in 1983.

But according to Moss, things are now running smoothly.

“We’re all pretty upbeat about the whole thing,” he said.

“It feels fantastic, back with the old gang and out with the boys.

“Everyone’s getting on really well, everyone’s playing great and playing great consistently.

“It just fits like an old glove, as they say ... I can only think of one thing that might beat doing this,” he added with a laugh.

Moss said the band had now re-formed for good with a new album due in April and future tours in the pipeline.

“We’re not going to sacrifice solo careers completely but if we can have our cake and eat it too, that will be good,” he said.

“We’ve got a brand new album

which we play two songs from on the tour, and the whole idea of that is to propel us along.”

While there’s one noticeable ab-sence in the band’s line up – drum-mer Steve Prestwich died from a brain tumour operation earlier this year – he still features in the show.

“It’s not really sad; we’re trying to make it a celebratory occasion and not a mournful occasion,” Moss said.

“We try to keep it a bit of a sur-prise really, but he’s definitely a fea-ture of the show.”

Huge video screens will display the band’s Wodonga gig with a “mas-sive” visual and audio show planned.

“The band knows how to rock and ultimately it’s just enjoyable,” Moss said.

“We’ve got songs that we never get sick of playing and songs that people never get sick of hearing.

“We put a lot of work into it to make sure that we get it right.”

Additional tickets have been add-ed to the Gateway Lakes gig which is close to sold out.

Davis Sanders homes also took out the commercial special pur-pose housing award for work at the Ronald McDonald family room at the Wodonga Hospital.

F & J Sanders Builders won the house of the year award.

Judged by industry profession-als, the awards acknowledge the talent of designers, builders and building companies who plan and construct quality new housing and apartments, renovations and out-door projects.

The house of the year was de-scribed as offering the ultimate in energy efficiency and luxury.

The Ronald McDonald family room was designed and construct-ed by Davis Sanders Homes at a cost of $548,000 and is attached to the Maternity Unit of Wodonga Hospital.

This purpose built home away from home was designed to allow two families living in close prox-imity, private spaces, communal spaces, separate outdoor spaces and above all, the creature com-forts of home while caring for their sick newborns in the Neonatal In-tensive Care.

The house is accessed via a

swipe card security system from the main hospital and boasts plen-ty of lockable storage areas both in the kitchen and private bathrooms.

Bedrooms include their own en-suites plus a large disabled shower and toilet. The colour scheme has been professionally co-ordinated with the furniture and appliances in mind by the Davis Sanders Col-our Consultant.

The judges noted that the care and attention to detail throughout

reflects the pride and love infused throughout the whole project.

“Due to the work being ex-tensively donated, the trades have taken great pride in their work and the finish is exceptional,” they said.

The Ronald McDonald Family Room has been funded via a grant from Ronald McDonald House Charities and major fund raising within the Albury Wodonga com-munity over the past 2 years. The fund raising team still has $50,000

to raise to completely pay off the debt for this fabulous community resource that Albury Wodonga should be very proud of.

Donations can be made by call-ing Laurel Butler on 0407 232 565 or Maree Cables on 0417 055 893.

As winners of this Special Pur-pose Housing Award, this project now goes on to compete as a final-ist against Special Purpose Hous-ing winners across Australia at the 2012 Awards in Cairns next May.

HIA Victorian Executive Direc-tor Gil King congratulated the win-ners.

“In a year where building ac-tivity in Victoria has come “off the boil”, it’s wonderful to see that our builders are maintaining the very high standards we have come to expect.” Mr King said.

“Victorian builders are first class in the design, workmanship and quality of new homes and ren-ovations.”

QUalITY: The workmanship on the Ronald McDonald family room was praised by the award judges.

THE perfect opportunity awaits the new owners of this week’s featured property to simply move in and enjoy a well main-

tained and comfortable family home.Originally built as a display home this

three bedroom plus study home has style in abundance in a package ideal for family living or entertaining in a relaxing, peaceful part of town.

An interesting design makes use of ca-thedral ceilings with timber panelling and exposed beams throughout the sunken living areas.

The large light-filled dining and kitchen areas are sure to please with electric cook-ing, dishwasher and ample space to cater for the largest family gathering.

And the party can quite easily spill out on

the rear al-fresco deck via either the dining room or the spacious lounge room.

The main bedroom includes an en-suite and built in robes while the remaining two bedrooms are both spacious and make use of a beautiful bathroom with separate toilet.

The study has been opened up to allow easy entry and ample light, ideal for the high tech student or maybe an avid sewer.

A double garage, itself making use of ca-thedral ceilings is large enough to house the family car or two, or maybe a small camper-van or boat.

The grounds are well established with a fernery down one side and high fences to en-sure privacy.

Recent painting and new floor coverings has kept the home in beautiful condition.

All it needs is your family

A CARNIVAL atmosphere will return to the Lauren Jackson Sports Centre and Scots School courts this weekend with the 28th consecutive running of the Twin Cit-ies Senior Basketball Classic.

Around 70 senior men’s and women’s teams are expected to participate in the annual carnival across eight grades with $5000 in prize money up for grabs.

Eleven teams will contest the A grade men’s and women’s competition with A reserve, B, C and Masters Men’s grades also on the card.

Teams from Albury and Wodonga will take the courts against rivals from Sydney, Wollongong, Canberra, Melbourne and country and regional Victoria.

Event organiser, Paul Gooding said the competition originally began back in the old tin shed at the showgrounds that was once Albury’s basketball stadium be-fore moving to the current location.

He said after a period of absence on the calendar the carnival returned in the early 80s and has been running consist-ently since, attracting many of the same players year in year out ensuring the con-tinued success of the annual event.

“It’s interesting to note if you went through the people who organise the teams I know 75-80 percent of them by name,” he said.

“They’ve been coming for up to 14 years in some instances so you know that you’ve got about 50 teams before you kick it off.”

Gooding said this year promised to be very competitive. He said the men’s A grade winners from the last two years, the Swamp Donkeys would be looking to take yet another title but would be facing some stiff competition from Melbourne.

“There’s a team in there called NTM from Melbourne this year and they’ve got Cam Rigby playing,” Gooding said.

“He’s a pretty powerful SEABL play-er and has played NBL as well and he’s got three of his team mates with him, so they’d be pretty close to the favourites.”

THE Border’s Bandits have announced in-coming coaches for the 2012 season.

Brad Chalmers will be taking over the job of the men’s team from Ian Gallaway.

Chalmers was a long term fixture in the team playing more than 250 games for the club.

The Lady Bandits will be headed by Tammy Goyne.

Goyne played for the Border team last season and is currently coaching the Lady Gators in the Victorian Country Basket-ball League.

Goyne attended the university of Tulsa in the US and played for Dandenong in the WNBL.

Both coaches will be under pressure to turn around a rather lacklustre few years, the only real highlight in recent times when the Lady Bandits made their first ever play-off series in 2009 under the tu-telage of Kennedy Kereama.

Flying visit snaresmini-triathlon

FORMER Border traithlete, Scott Schilg has taken out the first of the Albury Wodonga triathlon club’s mini-triathlons for the sea-son at Allans Flat on Sunday.

Schilg finished with close to a 2½ minute gap over nearest rival, Chris Moscher with Stuart White coming home in third.

First woman home was Al-bury’s Heidi Poole followed by Angela Sandral and Sharnie Mc-Cooke.

Schilg took control in the bike leg and powered on to take out the event by a comfortable mar-gin.

Currently living in Launces-ton, Schilg was back on the Bor-der to visit family and compete in a half iron man at Shepparton this weekend.

He said the mini triathlon was the ideal lead up to that event on a course he enjoyed and in perfect weather conditions.

“It’s a nice little course and the weather couldn’t be better with no wind,” Schilg said.

“There’s good competition as

well … they kept pushing me the whole way.”

Schilg said it also gave him the opportunity to test out his new bike before the Shepparton event with all looking good for his next challenge.

Poole managed a strong ef-fort to take the women’s section, crossing the line in eighth place overall.

Poole said she begins training this week for an event in March and Sunday’s event was a good indication of where she was at as far as fitness was concerned.

She said she was pleased with the result being her first hit-out for the season.

“It’s a tough, undulating course on the bike and even though it’s short it’s hard,” she said.

“I actually find these short courses quite challenging be-cause your heart rate is racing at the threshold all the time.

“It hurt but I was really happy with my time. It was pretty close to my best time.”

ALBURY Wodonga Triathlon Club members, Alessia Orla and Kirsty Deacon have taken vic-tory in race one of the Triathlon Victoria State Series at Brighton beach, Melbourne.

Six AWTC members trav-elled to Melbourne to contest round one of the series consist-ing of a 500m swim, 20km bike ride and 5km run.

In the category places AWTC members collected two gold medals, one bronze and three top 10 places.

Orla took gold in the open elite female division as did Dea-con in the 14-15 years female, just four minutes behind Orla and the first junior home.

Thomas Noble managed bronze in the 14-15 male mini triathlon, Alexander Holbrook finished fifth in the 16-19 male, Caleb Noble finished eighth in the junior elite male and Har-rison Rees finished ninth in the junior elite male.

Coach of AWTC, Fabrizio Andreoni said the result was very pleasing and reflected on the quality and attitude of the young athletes in the club.

“We put in a lot of effort coaching and providing ses-sions for juniors,” he said.

“But the other good point is the attitude they have in terms of training and commitment, this showed with the result on the weekend.

“Now we have a very good group of people that want to do it.

“They want to perform at the best of their ability and it’s good to see the best of their ability now is at state standard.”

Orla, from Torino, Italy and a recent addition to the club, had previously trained with Andreoni in Italy and came to Australia for her ‘winter’ train-ing sessions.

Andreoni said it was good to have Orla training and com-peting as a member of AWTC with her experience and ability invaluable to the juniors in the club.

WODONGA Wolves have taken a stunning come-from-behind win with a final quarter 30 point blitz to defeat Marybor-ough Blazers 77-71 in a tough road trip on Saturday night.

And the Lady Wolves have continued their undefeated start to the season with a solid 80-58 win over the Lady Blaz-ers.

The men were jumped by the home side from the outset with the Blazers taking control early.

Poor ball rotation in attack saw easy turnovers putting the Blazers in the fast break sce-nario but they could only man-aged a four point lead at the first break.

The second term saw much of the same with the Wolves un-able to close the gap despite big efforts from Dylan Webb and Heath Ohlin and went to the long break trailing by six.

The home side opened the gap further in the third and with a 15 point lead half way through the term looked like cruising to victory but a deter-mined Wolves closed the gap to eight before a buzzer-beating triple from Blazers’ Matt John-son opened it to 11 at the final break.

Coach, Mick Merrilees felt his boys had the momentum in the final half of the third term despite the margin and desper-ation soon turned to inspiration as the Border boys ran home.

With Webb covered inside Joldy Bradley stepped up to knock down some easy baskets.

Ohlin took care of the Blaz-ers’ danger man, Johnson lim-iting him to a solitary field goal and saw the visitors go on to a 30-13 final term and take the points.

Merrilees praised his team’s effort in a win he referred to as a “get out of jail free card”.

“We were out-played for three quarters but it shows the character and calibre of the players we have in the group,” he said.

Makos pepper the goalsOLIVIA Bahr has managed a seven goal bag to help her team, Makos to a dominant 15-1 vic-tory over Albury Wodonga in the under 14 girls water polo compe-tition on the weekend.

Ashleigh Gould managed five and Claudia McCulloch chimed in with three to ensure Makos were never troubled throughout the game.

Northside Stingrays also managed a strong victory with their 10-1 result over Pool Pi-rates Bones.

Scores were spread evenly across the board for Stingrays while Cassandra Gibbs was the sole contributor for Bones.

And Pool Pirates Skulls took a 7-2 victory over Albury Tigers, Hollie Wornes top scoring with three goals.

The 14 boys saw some more dominant results with Stingrays overcoming Bones 9-4 in the closest result while Tigers Yel-low notched up a big 13-2 win over Skulls and Tigers Black just as impressive with a 12-3 victory over Wodonga.

The girls again showed the way to the net in the under 16 division.

Merry Buckmaster was im-pressive with five goals in North-side Stingers 12-4 win over Pool Pirates.

Chelsea Lacey also contrib-uted for the victors with three goals as did Sharlet Medcraft for Pirates.

Alhana Hofer chipped in with four goals for Sharks in their 14-1 win over Northside Rays while Alex Cox and Jessie Rand both contributed three in Tigers Black’s 15-3 win over Ti-gers Yellow.

For the boys four goals from Skulls’ Nicholas Hynes wasn’t enough to take victory over Ti-gers Yellow with the latter pre-vailing in a tough 8-5 result.

James Mitchelhill top scored for the victors with three.

Tigers Black won 9-2 over Bones on the back of a four goal bag from Thomas Duck and Sharks took a 14-5 win over Ma-kos with Jack Hunter contribut-ing four goals for the victors.

YOUR BEST BODY12 WEEK CHALLENGE

Proudly Supported by:

WEEK TENBRING A FRIEND AND SHARE THE FUN

The not so great weather over the

last few weeks has kept a few people

away from our weekly group sessions.

However along with the return of the

wonderful weather it was great to see

the return of some familiar faces.

This weekend we held a “Bring a

Friend” day. We invited the Your Best Body Challengers to bring along fam-ily and friends so that they could ex-perience fi rst hand the group fi tness sessions that have been helping par-ticipants get fi tter and healthier over the past couple of months.

All participants took part in a simple session of sprinting, squats and star jumps. Although we say

simple, that doesn’t mean it didn’t get the heart going. An effective workout never needs to be diffi cult or compli-cated. It should be something that is able to be completed by people at any level, increasing intensity or adapting as needed.

The clock is ticking down on the Your Best Body Albury Wodonga Chal-lenge with only two more group ses-

sions. In just a few short weeks we

will announce the winners of the inau-

gural Your Best Body Albury Wodonga

Challenge. We are excited by the

changes in health, fi tness and body

composition that we are witnessing

however it is certainly too close to call

yet.

Capital comebackPlenty at stake as

Canberra pair meet at Jackson stadium

WNBL is about to hit town again and will this year take a new twist, being the first top level basketball game played since the re-naming of the Lau-ren Jackson Sports Centre.

Canberra is looking to expand its fan base into regional NSW and last year trialled the idea of using Albury as a fixture on its home and away ros-ter.

Stadium manager, Michael Stan-ton told NewsWeekly that last year’s inaugural match attracted about 750-800 people for Canberra’s top of the table clash with Bendigo and this year’s clash with the AIS should be no less popular.

A three-year deal between Albury-City and Basketball ACT has ensured the short term future of the now an-nual fixture.

Another interesting feature of the night will be the pitting of Australian Opals and Capitals coach Carri Graf against her Opals assistant, AIS coach Phil Brown which has been dubbed a “local derby with a difference”.

Graf offered a little more insight into the importance of the game.

“This time it’s the first time we play in the newly named Lauren Jack-son Stadium,” Graf said.

“I think from a Canberra Capitals and Albury basketball perspective, and for basketball in Australia that’s a big event.

“Canberra is the only team that Lauren’s played for in the WNBL, other than the AIS obviously where most of our elite juniors play, and it’s probably the club that she’s going to retire with.

“So I think it’s really a unique op-portunity for our club to play in Al-bury and the Lauren Jackson stadium for the first time … it’s Canberra ver-

sus the AIS, the two teams that she’s played for.”

Graf said she had a healthy respect for her Opals assistant stating he was one the biggest influences on junior elite athletes in recent times.

But she said once they took the floor on opposing sides they were there to do a job and for Graf that meant looking to take a victory.

“When he’s coaching the AIS and I’m coaching the Capitals, we’re about trying to get a win and we never take the AIS lightly, they’ve really pushed a lot of teams this year,” Graf said.

“Our win-loss hasn’t been great to date, we’re finding our feet in a some-what new group but when we come to Albury it’s about making sure we come out and play hard and go after the win.”

Graf said fans on the Border could expect a high quality game of basket-ball with several players sure to pro-vide plenty of action.

“The AIS have got some wonderful young athletes,” she said.

“They’ve got some great size and they’re playing some really good hoop this year.

“Obviously (for Canberra) Jess Bibby is someone who is always ex-citing to watch play, she’s a hell of a three point shooter, Marianna Tolo as a post player going up against some of the young posts, Nicole Hunt as an emerging talent point guard … hope-fully what you’ll see is a great game of up-tempo women’s basketball.”

Tickets prices for the game start at $20 for adults, $13 for concession holders, $10 for children under 16 and $50 for family passes which include two adults and two children.
