Albury Wodonga’s largest circulating newspaper

Close encounters Local residents are concerned after seeing boats and jet-skis break regulations around the popular Noreuil Park swimming and recreational area. Speeding and driving on the wrong side of the river are among some concerns local river users have for their safety. SEE MORE ON PAGE 4

Shooting for success IT was only a few short years ago that former Albury High School student Jeff Johnson was using a hand-held camcorder and making his friends re-enact horror scenes across the Border for his HSC drama project. Now, just seven years on, the young Albury born-and-bred film-maker has taken out the Video of the Year title at last week’s annual Rolling Stone awards after creating Peking Duk’s ‘High’ clip. “That was amazing,” he told the Albury Wodonga NewsWeekly after the awards ceremony. “It was just great to be nominated, we went into it thinking Sia would win because she was winning all the clip awards.” Mr Johnson and his co-director Max Miller spent hours creating and tweaking the concept of the award-winning video under their production company label Frank Meets Wolf. After working on the High clip up to five months before its release and hearing the song continuously before it even hit airwaves, Mr Johnson said it was rewarding to see the company’s visions finally brought to life. “You have this idea on paper and in your head for a couple months and then once you get on set in the space and in the costumes it’s great to see it then there in front of you,” he said. “The original version wasn’t as dark as what it ended up being, but as we were shooting it felt more organic to get deeper and darker. “The song is about grief and loss, but we also wanted something quite visually interesting.”

Mr Johnson also battled food poisoning throughout the twoday shoot in the Otway Ranges, adding to the production challenges. The song’s release last year proved commercially successful, and placed number five on the Australian ARIA Charts, where the film-makers also received a double platinum certification. The song also placed at number two on the Triple J Hottest 100 in January. Frank Meets Wolf has also gone on to create more videos for Peking Duk, as well as work with Kingswood, Nervo, British India, and other Australian bands. While Mr Johnson is now working from Melbourne, he credits the supportive teaching staff and his patient friends in Albury for helping nurture his creativity and encouraging him to peruse his goals. “I had great drama teachers, Paula Rundle-Gorden and Margie Gleeson, who both pushed me into doing film. “I was doing a creative film, and there were not many courses in the HSC or high school in general for that. “Mr Haynes my English teacher at Albury High was also good at promoting the idea of fiction.” For other young aspiring film-makers on the Border, Mr Johnson says persistence is key. “The film industry is quite difficult to break into, especially coming from a smaller town where I didn’t know anyone in Melbourne. “Get a camera and just shoot things. “You don’t realise how much you learn from practising with friends.”

Spectacular Growth

MOTORISTS can expect delays on the Hume Highway northbound of Albury as the NSW Government carries out $10 million in repairs for a five kilometre section of the road at Kyeamba. Mr Aplin said the project followed on from $7 million of work carried out at the same location early last year. “Once completed, motorists will have a safer section of road on which to drive and the long term routine maintenance costs will be reduced considerably,” Mr Aplin said. Work is being carried out from Monday to Saturday from 6am until midnight, and is expected to be completed in early June, weather permitting. For the safety of workers and motorists, all traffic will use the two southbound lanes, 24 hours a day for the duration of the project, with the exception of the Easter long weekend when both sides of the road will be open to cater for increased holiday traffic. “Motorists should plan their trip, allow extra travel time and follow all signs, including reduced speed limits. “Access to properties along the road will be maintained at all times. Mr Aplin thanked the community for its patience during this important upgrade work. For more information on scheduled road work, visit www.livetraffic.com or download the Live Traffic NSW application or call 132 701.

Warren Langley with the new East Street sculpture. 135348 Pictures: ADAM WILSON popular bronze owl outside the Lavington Library. Cr Mack said the installation of public art was important in the leadup to the opening of the city’s new art gallery. “Albury is a regional growth centre and is an arts and cultural destination. “ Our new art museum is only months away and pieces like this are the perfect complement. “We recognise that cities can be created and given value through the integration of art, design, architec-

ture and cultural elements. Work like this gives us a sense of pride and identity.” Langley has been a working public artist for more than 30 years. His work includes major public art and exhibition pieces in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, Asia and Europe. His permanent public artwork includes pieces at the Anzac War Memorial in Sydney, the Winter Olympic Village in Vancouver, Brisbane Airport, Parliament House in Canberra and the Museum of New Zealand.

ONE of Australia’s most respected public artists has unveiled a major artwork at the East Street exit off the Hume Highway in Albury. Internationally acclaimed artist, Warren Langley, has taken inspiration from the endangered crimson spider orchids of Nail Can Hill to create an eight metre sculpture using steel and intercepted light. The final piece is expected to be a spectacular, high profile visual identifier for Albury. The artwork, titled Growth, is made from vandal resistant and low maintenance materials. “Warren is one of the world’s leading public artists and to have one of his pieces on display in our city is a huge statement,” AlburyCity Mayor Kevin Mack said. “East Street is a high profile location along the Hume Freeway and with the interstate rail line, is a major gateway to the city. “We wanted to create a piece that would have a strong visual presence while being uniquely ‘Albury’.” The artwork came with an $80,000 price tag after council’s 2010-2020 Urban and Public Art Strategy identified city entrances or gateways as critical to creating a ‘sense of place’ and positive impression about the city. The $80,000 artwork has been funded from the Special Variation to Rates, which was adopted following extensive community consultation. So far this financial year, council has attracted $463,000 in grant funding to install $637,000 worth of public art around the city. Some of the statement pieces include the anti-graffiti panels at the freeway pedestrian bridges and the

Fake notes doing rounds By ERIN SOMERVILLE ALBURY police are appealing for information from the public after local businesses reported being paid with counterfeit banknotes. Last week Albury police released CCTV images of two women who were connected with the fake notes and while they have received some public information they are still appealing for assistance. Albury Local Area Command Crime Prevention Officer Senior Constable Emma-Jane Musgrave said the Border was usually sheltered from fake currency scams. “We normally don’t have a great issue with counterfeit notes, but we have had an influx into town associated with these people,” she said. “At this stage, the information we have is in excess of eight businesses in Albury and Lavington exchanged counterfeit notes for goods and services. “The money value is around $800.” The businesses reported receiving fake $100 notes on Monday and Tuesday last week. Police are now urging the public to also stay vigilant to detect fake money. Differences in texture, clarity and quality are some indicators to detect whether a note is a fake. Anyone who knows either woman or anyone who believes they have any information which may assist the police is asked to contact Albury police on 6023 9299 or anonymously via Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Water wear for survival MARITIME Safety Victoria (MSV) is calling on all boaters, including paddlers, to put safety first and wear a lifejacket following the recent drowning of a kayaker near Tallangatta in the state’s north east. The drowning, which occurred on the Mitta Mitta River on 20 February, marks the first fatality of the summer. While the number of fatalities is lower than for this time last year, three of the five boating fatalities in 2014-15 occurred on kayaks. Paul Corkill, spokesperson for the maritime safety regulator, said the incident is another tragic reminder about the potential dangers associated with boating and paddling on inland waters. “While the circumstances of this death are yet to be investigated, this tragic incident adds to an already worrying trend for boaters on inland waters,” he said. “Despite the perception that inland waters are safe, they have accounted for around 40 per cent of Victoria’s boating fatalities in recent years. “In most of these incidents, the deceased were not believed to have been wearing a lifejacket. “The consequences for not wearing a lifejacket can be catastrophic. “Our message to all boaters is, regardless of the boat or the waterway you visit, make it a firm rule to wear a lifejacket at all times,” Mr Corkill said. This summer MSV has been running its Wear a Lifejacket, or Others Wear the Consequences campaign to encourage boaters to wear lifejackets. For more information about the campaign, visit www.wearalifejacket. vic.gov.au.

Need to reduce the speed ALBURY City council has revealed the five worst streets for speeding as chosen by local residents and will work with police to crackdown on offending drivers. The five streets to be targeted as part of Council’s No Sign, No Brainer campaign are Vickers Road, Douglas Road, East Street, Logan Road and Watson Street. Earlier this month the council asked residents to nominate streets where speeding was a problem. More than 220 residents contacted the council and 110 streets were identified. The council has since been conducting traffic and speed counts on the nominated streets

and the data has been passed onto local police. The findings will form the basis of a police crackdown in the form of additional patrols and speed enforcement. Albury City mayor Kevin Mack said the number of streets nominated shows how concerned residents are about speeding in their streets. “The nominations were spread out across Albury and its surrounding suburbs, suggesting speeding isn’t just a localised issue but is a problem right across the city. “There are often children playing in these streets, people walking or riding bikes and vehicles reversing out of driveways.

“The faster you are travelling the longer it will take for you to stop, increasing your chances of being involved in a crash. “The consequences of speeding can have devastating effects,” Cr Mack said. “Residential streets have a 50km/h speed limit. “Drivers who choose to ignore this are not only putting their own lives at risk but also those of other drivers, cyclists and pedestrians.” Albury City road safety officer Lauren Musil said speed is the biggest killer on NSW roads, causing about 40 per cent of road deaths each year.

Hard to be a woman

Water limits

By ERIN SOMERVILLE

By ERIN SOMERVILLE SPEEDING jet-skis and boats around the popular Noreuil Park area are causing concern for Murray River users. Local residents worry speeding watercraft in the popular recreational area in Albury are jeopardising people’s safety as they take to the river for a swim or kayak. Currently, boats, jet skis, and other motorised vessels are restricted to a speed limit of four knots in the area of Noreuil, Hovell Tree, and Mates Parks. Resident Ruby Rowat is one local river user who appreciates watercrafts’ rights, but has seen boats and jet-skis travel too fast in speed-restricted areas of the Murray. She says she is cautious when she swims in the river and wears a bright swimming cap after having some close encounters with speeding vessels. “One evening I was just floating and a boat came charging up (by Noreuil Park) very fast and I saw that they didn’t see me,” Ms Rowat said. “They saw me probably within 10 metres and slowed right down when they saw, but by then it would have been too late.” Ms Rowat said she had had further encounters with speeding watercraft while supervising three children at a swimming spot near Mates Park, and also while taking them kayaking on the river. “Maybe if there were signs with info, or an easy way - a boating or council website - for swimmers to report incidents. “This may act as a deterrent

Murray River Canoe Hire operator David Breedon said non-local jet skiers tend to be more problematic for speeding in the waterways than boats. “Most jet-skiers are very well behaved, but unfortunately Albury jet-skiers cop the flack when out-of-towners come in,” said Mr Breedon, who operates part of his business from Noreuil Park. “We get a lot of complaints about jet-skiers, but they’re not locals.”

Mr Breedon has also witnessed a recent spike in the number of people utilising the Murray for swimming and recreational activities, particularly at Noreuil Park. “Since the removal of the boat ramp at Noreuil Park more people are visibly using it more down there, it’s also a bit of a correlation between the new bike path around Wonga Wetlands.” Albury Wodonga News Weekly contacted Roads and Martime Services and questioned how regularly the service patrolled the Albury area and how they deter maritime speeding, but did not receive a response at the time of going to press.

IN 2015, being a woman still has its challenges. As people across the globe come together on Sunday to mark International Women’s Day, the team at Zonta Club of Albury-Wodonga will be welcoming Border inspiration Matina Jewell to highlight women’s equality issues and outline females’ amazing contributions to society. Ms Jewell’s story is one of inspiration from her trail-blazing military career, her heroic war efforts, and her ties with the UN and Anzac Centenary Commission. She has even been the subject of a two-piece Australian Story special on the ABC. ‘Matina has showed that women can make an equal contribution to whatever workforce they’re in,” Zonta Club of Albury-Wodonga president Janelle Tasker said. “At an event like this we hope to remind the community

how we all can enjoy and appreciate each other as equal human beings.” The local Zonta Club, meaning honest and trustworthy, is part of the United Nation’s recognised Zonta group that strives to empower women worldwide though service and advocacy. While the local club has held events in the past to mark International Women’s Day, this year’s event will be their largest, and coincide with the 20th anniversary of women joining Albury North Rotary Club. The women of Zonta encourage all men and women to join in on this inspirational afternoon and help raise awareness for the equality of women. “The speakers we’ve had (on International Women’s Day) have enhanced what Zonta is about: working for the status of women,” Ms Tasker said. “It is still a very male-dominated world.” Ms Jewell’s audiences are always captivated by her grip-

They’re creepy and a bit kooky

Strong feel for teal By ERIN SOMERVILLE

By ERIN SOMERVILLE THEY may be creepy and kooky, but don’t let that scare you off. The students and staff at The Scots School Albury are bringing the Addams Family to their stage this weekend, and while the family is a little mysterious and spooky, the show guarantees to be a great laugh for the family. The talented cast has spent hours rehearsing each week since October, and is now putting on the final touches before the opening this week. It’s been a rewarding experience the school’s seniors won’t quickly forget. “It’s not something the region gets to see very often,” Lewis Stanley, who plays Uncle Fester, said. “It’s been on Broadway and is relatively new.” The play is also a treat for those who grew up with the unorthodox Addams Family on television. The main cast will be accompanied by up to 70 other performers as part of a chorus, making it an inclusive event for many Year 11 and 12 students. “This is a very special tradition, and Year 11 and Year 12 students see the production as a rite of passage,” co-ordinator of Theatre Elizabeth Hietneyer said. “It really brings the year group together for their last fun activity before the HSC.” As well as the witty humour inserted in the play, Ms Hietneyer said the calibre of the cast was a highlight of this year’s production, with some cast members having performed at Albury’s Carols by Candelight, entering X Factor, or being

IT’S known as the silent killer, but thanks to the Border Ovarian Cancer Awareness Group a deadly disease is starting to be heard. As Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month came to a close on Sunday, the local group that was only formed in 2012 is pleased with the mark it’s making on the community. With the help of local business leaders and landmarks donning teal knickers, badges, and balloons, through the local initiative, people are starting to talk about the disease that kills an Australian woman every 10 hours. “We wanted to raise awareness first, and then money for research,” Border Ovarian Cancer Awareness Group founder Heather Watts, who lost her daughter to the disease in 2011, said. “We raised $1200 through the business packs, but we only expected to break even.” The local initiative received over 1000 tweets, was copied for an awareness campaign in Ballarat, and even gained social media attention in the USA and Canada. Over the past three years, the awareness group is slowly beginning to see the surface scratched on this cancer that is often left in the dark compared to other types, such as breast cancer. “Before there was this wall of silence, now people are starting to talk about it.” Ms Watts also marked Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month with an invitation-only trip to meet and speak with doctors and researchers from the Garvan Institute who

Local businesses raised the teal balloons and donned teal knickers to raise awareness for ovarian cancer. 135425 are working on breakthroughs for the disease. The latest exciting discovery includes identifying biochemical changes that commonly occur in the DNA of women with ovarian cancer, which may help diagnose the cancer at an earlier stage in the future. Ms Watts said it was a great chance to network with professionals in the field, and eventually hoped to be able to host a forum on the disease in the Border community which has offered its support to the cause over the past three years. With the cancer affecting women from as young as 12 through to their seventies, Ms Watts is encouraging women to join in and help the cause. The Border Ovarian Cancer Awareness Group meets every second Tuesday of the month at 7pm. For more information, phone 0401 008 310.

Cash for oval facilities from grants round URANA Road Oval has received a funding injection from the NSW Liberals and Nationals Government for the construction of a first-class sporting pavilion. Member for Albury Greg Aplin on Friday joined NSW Deputy Premier and Minister for Hospitality, Gaming and Racing Troy Grant to announce the grant following a successful ClubGRANTS application. “I’m pleased to announce the NSW Government is supporting the redevelopment of our oval with a $228,000 grant to be spent on replacing the old and well-worn sports pavilion,” Mr Aplin said. “The new building will include changerooms for men and women, toilets, canteen and storage facilities.

“The redevelopment will be the envy of many and will no doubt be enjoyed by our players, coaches and referees and of course supporters. “The new pavilion will be an outstanding asset for the local sport community especially for our many cricketers and footballers, and will ensure Lavington is equipped to compete and train for generations to come.” Deputy Premier and Minister for Hospitality Troy Grant said the NSW Government was proud to support this important project that would contribute to the well-being and enjoyment of so many in the region. “Part of the focus of the ClubGRANTS scheme in 2014’15 is on the development and enhancement of sport, recreation and cultural facilities

in line with the government’s NSW 2021 commitment to increase participation in sport, recreational, arts and cultural activities and support healthy lifestyles,” Mr Grant said. “The NSW Liberals and Nationals understand how important enhancing a local facility is to meet the needs of thriving communities, and I’m proud to join Greg today to present the community with this funding boost.” ClubsNSW CEO Anthony Ball said that the club community was pleased to be able to support this fantastic initiative. “Sport and fitness is an area that every club invests in, so we’re looking forward to seeing the impact that support will have here in Albury,” Mr Ball said.

Splash space for mental health By ERIN SOMERVILLE HEADSPACE may now be up and running on the Border but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean the conversation about mental health should stop. Tonightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Albury Wodonga Big Splash at Albury Swim Centre aims to raise awareness of mental health as well as funds for the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Headspace service. Big Splash organising committee member Annette Baker knows how important it is to keep mental health issues in the spotlight after her daughter Mary tragically took her own life in 2011. Mary was an active member of Tigers Water Polo Club and the team has jumped on board to co-ordinate the event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (Headspace) certainly a place many young adults will use,â&#x20AC;? Mrs Baker said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An important thing Patrick McGorry (2010 Australian of the Year) pointed out was there are good headspaces and bad ones, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important we have a good one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are also lots of people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t read newspapers and are unaware of Headspace and needing help and are still uncertain as to where they can go.â&#x20AC;? Steve Mamouney, who also serves on the organising committee, is hopeful that the event will help remove the stigma that still surrounds mental health. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to continue having the conversa-

tion and talk about the issues they have, not just young people,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to make it OK to seek help and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to keep raising awareness to ensure we are more readily able to deal with it.â&#x20AC;? The Big Splash is all about having fun and will feature some competitive racing as well as tube races, music, comedy, pool fashions, good food and plenty of fun. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on this evening (4 March), from 5pm to 8pm at Albury Swim Centre. Head on down to join in the fun, or simply watch and soak up the party atmosphere. Race categories have been developed to encourage participation from a broad range of the local community including tradesmen, family, community groups, car dealers, real estate agents, schools, sporting clubs, corporates and a celebrity challenge. There will also be plenty of entertainment on the evening with local personality John Walker as master of ceremonies, music provided by DJ Jono from Albury DJ Entertainment and Fashions on the Pool competitions. There will be catering available on the evening. Organisers say they are thankful for the help offered by their primary sponsor Hume Bank.

Counting on bikes boost By ERIN SOMERVILLE THIS trio from Albury High School were just a few of the volunteers who rose early yesterday and were scattered across the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bike paths to participate in the Bicycle Networkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Super Tuesday Commuter Bike Count. Now in its ninth year, the initiative sees volunteers record rider movements at major road and path intersections and other vantage points to better understand the infrastructure needs in the city. Bicycle Network then verifies and analyses the data, submitting their findings and bike riding facility recommendations to participating councils in a written report. Bicycle Networkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Super Tuesday Bike Count collects bike rider data on behalf of local councils to help identify how they can improve conditions for bike riders and encourage more people to be physically active. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the count itself is very important,â&#x20AC;? volunteer Craig Day said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relevant for the right cycling infrastructure and increasing awareness of how many cyclists are out there.â&#x20AC;? Many local governments use the count to guide their bike riding investments and programs. Bicycle Network chief executive officer Craig Richards

Angus Mackinnon, Tim Lutton and Craig Day volunteer to gather data on the city's bicycle flow. 135428 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE said Super Tuesday data is an important tool for councils for planning infrastructure and facilities for local bike riders. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By establishing a consistent measure of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bike riding patterns, we can show how many people are riding and where they are going,â&#x20AC;? Mr Richards said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This further strengthens the

case for investment in better bicycle facilities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Providing the right conditions for riders encourages more people to jump on their bikes and reap the rewards of better physical and mental health.â&#x20AC;?

Sore for a good cause By ERIN SOMERVILLE “I CAN'T believe how sore my legs are.” This is how Jacquie Hawkins felt on Monday after spending nine days pedalling 1000 kilometres across the countryside to raise funds for Give me 5 For Kids and Albury Children’s Ward. Starting in Wodonga, Ms Hawkins visited communities from Wagga, to Urana, Yarrawonga, and Chiltern to help raise funds. But it was a journey that got off to a tricky start. “I crossed the causeway and I got my first puncture,” she said. “I had to go get that looked at.” Six punctures later, Ms Hawkins pedalled her way across the finish line on Sunday with around $9000 in funds under her belt. “I had no idea I had got to that

number at all,” she said. “To me, it was something to do because I’m passionate about the cause behind it.” Ms Hawkins said she couldn’t have done the journey without the support of sponsors and her family, including her mother who followed her on the entire journey in her car, and her sister who helped rattle fundraising tins at the end of each day. As Ms Hawkins lets the bicycle tyres cool off this week, she says she’d like to help continue raising awareness for children’s cancer after seeing it affect her family and friends. “There are other ways of doing things as well, this was just one way to show we can all make a difference.” You can still donate to Ms Hawkins’ effort at http://www. jhawkins.com.au/donations/

Orientation Week, more commonly known as O Week, was in full swing at Charles Sturt University as 450 “freshers” made new friends, found their way around the eco-friendly campus on tours, and geared up to tackle a degree. “We’ve had lots of activiO Week team leaders Jess Farrell, Kurtis Wyatt, and ties through the week getting to Claire Thistleton welcome students with arms wide open to CSU Albury. 135423 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE know the campus,” O Week co-

ordinator Kurtis Wyatt, who is also undertaking a Bachelor of Physiotherapy, said. “We’ve got lots of people moving down south, and a lot from places like Griffith and Wagga, and a few from Sydney and Melbourne. “It’s important to meet people in your course and other courses in O Week, most of those people are who you’ll be with throughout your time here.” Most of the new students are aged between 18 and 20 years old, but some mature age students are also calling Albury

CSU their home, too. “A lot of students like Albury. “It’s rural but it has a lot of facilities.” While O Week is typically known for its parties at all universities, Mr Wyatt said CSU was keen to tackle drug and alcohol issues, and support students’ health and well-being. “We have support services for students if they feel homesick or overwhelmed, and there is a counsellor you can go to for a chat.” The 2015 session one for CSU started on Monday.

Letters Adoption support YOUR interview with Helen Nicholson was most interesting. The Albury-Wodonga Adoption Support Group was in action long before legislation was passed, enabling adopted persons to access original birth certificates. Our membership comprised birth parents, adoptive parents and adoptees. Anyone wanting help was welcome to attend our meetings and there were no membership fees or other charges. We were willing to help in any way we could, barring breaking the law. I well remember my adopted child and myself sitting on the steps of Albury Courthouse, waiting for it to open, so that we could be first in Albury to apply for an original birth certificate. The courthouse staff were so helpful at all times, we finally wrote to the Attorney-General, expressing our thanks. As time passed, the need for our help dwindled, so we eventually went into recession, though we always remained ready, willing and able to help others. That situation remains the same today. It would be nice if some of us oldies were able to attend one of the meetings at Glenecho Neighbourhood House and meet Helen and some of the other newcomers, though we are probably classed as “aged” these days. Patricia Strachan, Thurgoona.

A time to remember SITTING alongside the fresh Murray River in the beautiful hills of Jingellic, there is nowhere better to feel the fresh air of autumn start its trickle down the valley than at the Bridge Hotel. With the hotel’s beautiful rustic interiors, waterfront views, and the warmest of company partnered with the finest cold beers, the Jingellic Bridge Hotel is the ideal place to farewell summer and celebrate in style after the popular Towong Cup on 7 March. Enjoy the beautiful 40-minute drive along the picturesque Murray River as you say goodbye to the Towong Turf Club and continue your night in true winning style at Jingellic. With Recreational Rock Stars providing quality entertainment from 7.30pm until midnight, and delicious meals being served up to fuel your energy, it is a prime position to call home over this festive weekend in the Upper Murray region. Whether you’re after a punt at the nearby race meeting, want to sing and dance along with the hotel’s entertainment, or are simply looking to escape into the nearby tranquillity by casting out a fishing line, enjoying local birdlife, or using the boat ramp to go canoeing, it’s all here at the Bridge Hotel. “It is a beautiful place to be,” proud owner Ian Clarke said. “We offer everything, and it really is an iconic country pub.“ Established in 1925, carved over

Whatever guests decide to do with their days, most will agree that the Bridge Hotel is the ideal place on the Murray to be replenished. The hotel’s a la carte lunch and dinner bistro offers delicious, varied, and hearty meals that will sate the appetite

of the hungriest and fussiest of guests. All this can be washed down with one of six frosty beers that are available on tap every day. The hotel offers clean, comfortable, country accommodation for all tastes, and is a great place to rest a weary head after being trackside at Towong. There is room for the whole family or your racing entourage at the establishment’s three-bedroom cabin, which has two bedrooms with queen beds, and one bedroom with two singles. A balcony overlooking the mighty Murray River guarantees you stunning

and tranquil views during your entire stay for the affordable price of $160 for a couple per night, and $20 extra for each guest beyond that. Guests can stay in a smaller twobedroom cabin, that boasts a queen bed and two bunks, for just $120 per night, plus $20 for each guest beyond that. Both cabins come with a laundry, television, lounge and dining area, kitchenette, and television to keep the family going during any length of stay. Those looking for smaller accommodation options can book the hotel’s motel-style rooms, which contain a

queen bed and a single. Prices start from just $95. Nature-lovers need not look any further, either. Mr Clarke and his team at the Bridge Hotel will allow you to pitch your tent in a designated area on the establishment’s grounds right on the banks of the Murray for free. Toilets and showers are also available. So take a punt this weekend in Towong, before getting the best bang for your buck at Jingellic’s Bridge Hotel. Odds are you’ll have a time to remember.

Over 55’s... Downsize without compromise DOWNSIZING doesn’t mean compromising on style. The team at Murray Gardens are pleased to unveil one of their newly renovated units, showcasing the maximum lifestyle that can be achieved when downscaling. Their latest unit on offer boasts all the latest mod cons, and with its modern and naturally well-lit interior, is an easy place to call home. An impressively large dining/living area means there is plenty of space for you and all your guests. New carpets, paint, and tiles make the place feel brand-new, and with no uneven surfaces or trip points throughout, getting around is a breeze. Modern LED lighting and a reverse-cycle climate control system means the room will be comfortable and welcoming year ‘round. The team at Murray Gardens have thought of all the latest conveniences to allow you to grow with your new home. The brand-new kitchen offers plenty of room to move around in, and ensures all appliances, and soft-shut drawers and cupboards are at a perfect height so you’ll never have to worry about over-

reaching again. The four-top electric cooker and oven are easy to use and will make whipping up a meal a pleasure as you look out onto your own backyard. Parts of the kitchen have also been levied so you’ll never have to worry about wear and tear around the bottom of cupboard and kitchen surfaces if you need a walker. Sliding door access onto a covered alfresco dining area also means you can enjoy the best of the outdoors in any weather over a meal. Just off the kitchen is a large laundry, with plenty of room to store the washing, do the ironing, and gain easy access to the clothesline. The bathroom has been remodelled, and includes a lovely spacious shower, generous bathroom mirror, heat lights, and a modern elevated vanity. A separate raised toilet with enough room for a walker is also an added bonus in the home. The main bedroom comes with all the creature comforts, and offers plenty of room including your bed, lots of natural light, and even a walk-in wardrobe. While the second bedroom

is a little smaller, it comes with a built-in wardrobe, and is great for guests or even to use as a study or hobby room. The outdoors of this home is just as appealing. Maintained lawns out the front enhance the feel of the village’s private streets, while an easily maintainable and very private patio and garden area out back allows you to use your green thumb as much or little as you please. There is also a storage shed to ensure your backyard is never cluttered.

The beautiful design of the home was achieved with the help of building contractors A.S. Wills of Albury. “We refurbished this for those looking to downsize their homes but upsize their lifestyle,” Murray Gardens comanager Anne Jack said. “There is everything here, and we look after the internal and external maintenance.” Give the team at Murray Gardens a call today before this great modern unit is snapped up.

Over 55’s... ALMOST three years since she became Mardross Gardens’ village manager, Anne Martin is incredibly proud of the sense of community she has fostered within the village. “The most important part of the job is being there for the residents,” Ms Martin said. “Whether the residents need my help getting around the village, arranging activities, or linking them to community services, I enjoy making their life better by helping with their needs. “Often, our residents just need a friendly ear, or a warm smile, and that makes all the difference. “Knowing that the residents really appreciate what I do - I think that’s important, and it motivates me to make the community even better.” Mardross Gardens is an active rental retirement community with 37 residents between the ages of 55 and 95. “Our residents really enjoy Mardross Gardens’ rental retirement model. Instead of buying a property with large upfront expenses, residents sign a se-

AMPLIFY Hearing and Diagnostics is locally owned and independent. Emma Burdziejko, Liz Lockett and Kate Rixon combined their skills in 2013 to meet the community’s overwhelming need for personalised service and patient focus in hearing healthcare. “With long-term, experienced and local clinicians, we believe we are becoming the clinic of choice for independent, expert advice regarding the latest in technology for hearing aid fittings and diagnostic audiology,” Emma said. With one in six Australians suffering from hearing loss, Amplify Hearing and Diagnostics aim to provide a complete service for adults with hearing concerns catering to self-funded retirees, pensioners, veterans and NSW and Victorian workers compensation. They also offer full diagnostic audiology for children upwards of nine months of age. Audiologist Liz Lockett explains: “Being independent allows us to offer hearing aids that are most suitable for each individual's needs from a large number of brands as opposed to many of the clinics that are now owned or affiliated with any one hearing aid manufacturer.” Amplify Hearing and Diagnostics is accredited by the Office of Hearing Services to provide free hearing services to eligible pensioners and veterans. The Office of Hearing Services recently upgraded their computer

system to allow even easier access for clients - whether they are wanting to come onto the scheme for the first time, or are an existing client wishing to check when they are next due for a hearing test or new hearing aids. Business owner Emma Burdziejko says: “Amplify Hearing’s clinicians share a common goal of providing professional, ethical and excellence in service to those with hearing problems. “We are continually sourcing the best in hearing technology for our clients. “We recently trialled a product within our clinic which has proven successful and wish to extend the trial publicly.” They are currently offering a free four-week hearing aid trial - all you have to do is call to book your place (mention this article). Kate said: “The difference with this trial is that you get to try the hearing aids at the first appointment, then wear them home with no cost or commitment. “Then you decide if you love the hearing aids or simply return them and owe nothing.” So for quality service from highly knowledgeable, local clinicians, visit Amplify Hearing and Diagnostics at 549 Macauley Street Albury, or call (02) 6021 7500.

“It just felt right.” Mrs Stivens’ instinct was right, and now two years after that first encounter with Riverwood the couple is now happy to call it home. Initially from Wagga, the Stivenses moved to the Border to be closer to family and take advantage of the great location and facilities of the area. While a private residence in Wodonga was initially their first option, they quickly realised the advantages of moving to a lifestyle estate like Riverwood. “This is bigger and more workable,” Mrs Stivens said. “The private houses we looked at need to be done up and we didn’t have that sort of money. “This is a lot more affordable than private, and it fits with our needs and is comfortable.” Now, the couple enjoys their two-bedroom unit that provides plenty of space, a generous backyard for their Maltese dog Lochi to roam happily in, and is easily maintenable. It’s also the peace of mind and easy lifestyle that Riverwood provides that wins over residents like the Stivenses. “It’s central, secure, and friendly. “If Ed goes away I feel safe by myself.” Both big fans of travelling, the Stivenses are also able to simply pack up and leave their home as they embark on their adventures and know it will be left in safe and secure hands.

Top advice on all aged care FOR many families, moving a loved one into care can be a stressful and emotional experience without having to deal with the extensive red tape that comes on top. The friendly and experienced team at Generations Aged Care Advice are on hand to help make the transition as smooth as possible for you and your family. Their extensive and specialised knowledge helps clients and their families to understand their options in relation to paying the fees associated with care, be provided with administrative assistance and can act as an advocate when dealing with care providers. Having this type of professional support provides peace of mind and give you more time to focus on your loved ones. While placing someone into a care service may seem like a simple task, there are many hurdles and challenges to overcome such as long waiting lists to get into a particular home or care package, Centrelink and tax implications of restructuring assets, confusing terminology, jargon, and fees, just to mention a few.

Situations become even more complex when planning for the care of couples or dealing with assets that are earmarked to be left to particular people or difficult to liquidate such as family farms. Managing these issues on behalf of a loved one when balancing working life, raising a family, and co-ordinating care plans with other family members who live afar can often become overwhelming for the families of the elderly. Generations Aged Care Advice is here to help take the stress off you and your loved ones, and with our staff specialising in financial advice regarding home and permanent residential aged care, you will always be in safe and knowledgeable hands. Megan McGrath, principal of Generations Aged Care Advice understands the complexity and emotional impact the decisions around aged care can have on you and your family. She has good working relationships with local homes and a thorough understanding of what can work for you. Megan is flexible and happy to work around your needs, and can arrange home appointments, office meetings,

or even a consultation online. Megan can assist with the financial analysis necessary to help your family make an informed decision as to how to structure and pay for the costs of care. Planning ahead is always a great way to make the emotional journey into care an easier ride for the whole family. A well-planned transition to care can give the entire family plenty of time to explore the available options and organise finances ultimately leading to reduced family stress and tension. This means that when the time finally comes, the “How are we going to do this?” is sorted and the family can concentrate on looking after mum or dad’s emotional needs.

THE problem with a sequel to a highly popular, successful and original movie is that you are pretty much asking lightning to strike twice in the same place with the same ferocity. Sure it happens, but not very often. The lightning is buzzing in the air and you can smell the ozone but it doesn’t quite hit the ground with The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. That’s not to say it isn’t a great movie, funny and heartwarming, beautifully shot and wonderfully acted but then with a cast which includes the brilliant and wickedly funny Maggie Smith, Bill Nighy, Judi Dench, Maxine Imrie and the versatile Dev Patel, it’s hard to go wrong. This is a beautiful movie - you can almost smell the heady Indian spices in the air and the dance sequences are beautiful and joyous. But while The Best Exotic Marigold broke new ground and brought multi-generational romantic comedy to the screens in a strong and legitimate way, the second best is just that. It treads a similar path to the first although it’s present-

ed as a movie in three parts starting from the engagement party, family party and then the wedding. It takes up not long after the first film, with Sonny deciding it’s time to expand (the road trip scenes are beautifully funny). But although it is walking a now familiar path of autumn love and elder angst, it does so with a lot of heart. And at its heart are a range of beautifully realised relationships between actors at the top of their game. The interaction between Dame Maggie and Dev Patel’s characters is both over the top and yet in its own way understated. They play for laughs and push it to the edge but they never quite push the boundaries into the silliness so many actors and writers think you need for something to be funny. They are the odd couple of many comedies but it works in such a heart-warming way.

This time around we are also treated to a new piece of man-candy in the form of Richard Gere who manages to hold his own in such esteemed company. Interestingly, most of his interaction is with Patel and Lillete Dubey, who once again brilliantly brings Sonny’s over-bearing, over-critical mother to life, and not with the indefatigable and commanding Dench or Smith or even Imrie (whose beautifully told romance is one of the most touching of the movie). This film is like the hotel itself, beautifully shambolic and yet imposing, old but beautiful in its own way. There is not much new from the first one, but then does there have to be? It’s just nice to revisit this colourful, warm funny world again and prove you don’t have to be 24 and built like Miss World to be in love. - Tania Phillips

Mud and guts OVER 300 competitors got down and dirty at the weekend’s Allfit Border Battlefield challenge. Team members and solo competitors tackled the 10-kilometre course, and crawled, swam and swung their way through to the finish line.

Local Sport Coach shows way By JAMES MCNEIL

Ryan Clifford. 135424

Records set in road race By CRAIG McMILLAN BENDED ELBOW CYCLING TEAM WANGARATTA’S rising cycling star Tomarsh Loki continued his development as a future star of road cycling with a blistering course record over the 16km Bended Elbow time trial course. Fresh from top 10 placings in the under-19 Oceania Games, Tomarsh blistered a 44.86km/h average to cover the course in 21.24, a solid 59 seconds ahead of fellow Wangaratta rider and masters winner Tully Lyster. Time trialling ability is critical for riders with aspirations of higher honours in the sport and Tomarsh is a natural at the discipline. For the first time in the series the riders were faced with a head wind on the outbound leg and tail wind on the return, with lighter winds and cooler temperatures. Big movers on the night proved to be Mat Hamblin, who has steadily dropped his PB; Ryan Clifford, who slashed his PB time by over a minute; and woman’s leader Kirrilie De Athridge, who every week improves her PB and impresses. With two weeks to go, the riders have the chance to lock down PB times to last the winter. It is not too late to join the action. For all cyclists who are keen to try cycle racing the event starts at 6.15pm, at the corner of Old Barnawartha and McFarlands roads, each Thursday night. Sign on starts at 5.45pm and all abilities are welcome. A large contingent of riders from the Border headed to Narrandera on the Sunday for the first race of the Tour of The Riverina. Held over 70 kilometres in windy and warm conditions, a sizeable field was whittled down to a handful of riders to contest an exciting sprint. Top regional rider Peter Treloar of Wagga Wagga proving the strongest. Border riders Craig McMillan, Aaron Moffat and Ken Payne finished strong in 5th, 6th and 7th spots.The next round of the series will be at Griffith next Sunday, over a 70km course.

THE second day of round 14 of the Cricket Albury Wondonga competition saw the wrapping up of the regular season and some excellent performances to finish the year. Having set up a chance for an outright victory to move themselves into finals, Belvoir ended up surprise losers, thanks to an innings of 168 not out from coach Josh Warren-Marmo. Chasing 236 at Birallee and in trouble at the end of day one, Warren-Marmo produced a fighting innings to not only save Wodonga from an outright loss but to bring them their second victory of the year. Warren-Marmo was the standout, scoring more than half of the Raiders runs and was able to deal with all Belvoir had to throw at him. Even the competition leading wicket-taker Zac Simmonds could not remove him with his figures 2/121 off 29 overs. Noah Spiteri was the shining light for Belvoir with the junior taking figures of 3/11 off 2.5. Unfortunately for both teams that is the end of the season, but there is plenty of positives for both teams heading into next season. Tallangatta fell 17 runs short of victory at Rowen Park this weekend despite Albury being without its star bowler David Tassell. On the back of a Kade Brown hundred, Albury had plenty of runs to play with and stand-in skipper Grant Wells ensured a victory was at hand with the figures of 5/63 of 21 overs while Liam Hocking also took 4/46 off 11.

Out? Lavington's Joshua Jones attempts to dismiss the diving Jack Craig. James Weighell and Josh Bousfield who are both English imports were Tallangatta’s best batsmen, with both making half-centuries. Fortunately for Tallangatta with Belvoir losing they were assured a spot in the final 6. Albury’s season has finished on a high but with the talent they have in their team it would be assured they are disappointed not to be playing in March. Wodonga Bulldogs have beaten Lavington in their battle at Les Cheesley Oval, with the bulldogs chasing down Lavington's 256 which was possible thanks to a Sam Harris hundred. Wodonga drew on all their resources to chase the score down with Trent Ball (46), James Tonkin (49), Jack Craig (46) and Dan Dixon (48) the main contributors. Jaydon Wright was the best with the ball for the Panthers with 4/59 off 17 overs. Both teams will be in finals this week with Wodonga sitting 2nd and Lavington 6th.

East Albury has accounted for North Albury at Alexandra Park by 78 runs. After making 222 the week prior, the Crows were left without opening bowler Chris Bridle. David Farrell was the top scorer for North Albury with 53 while Brendan Simmonds (26) and Tylar Young (21) were the other conrtributors. For East Albury, Damien Barber was the best with the ball with 3/43 off 14 overs while youngsters Nicholas Brown (2/13) and Kris Milosta (1/11) were economical. This win guaranteed East Albury top place on the ladder whilst North Albury finished third. After rolling New City for just 84, St Patricks declared 7/207 and would have been confident in outright victory. A fighting 83 from Jack Thomas and 30 from Jack Phillips took New City to 8/211 after 80 overs, staving off outright defeat. Missing the likes of Hatton and Naughton, St Patricks best bowler was Kane Arendarcikas with 2/60

off 20. New City is now finished for the season while St Patricks will finish in 4th place. The weekend just passed proved to be an exciting one for some of the top ranked bowlers in CAW with the opportunity to bowl to the world’s best. A group of 12 individuals experienced something that will surely be a fond memory in years to come and something to tell the grandkids. Bowling to the likes of De Villiers, Du Plessis, Joyce and Stirling will for some players be the highlight of their career. The hospitality of ACT Cricket and both the Irish and South African cricketers was absolutely outstanding. The impact that the players had on the younger cricketers will provide them with a learning tool that only a handful will get in their lifetime. The organisation from CAW and its officials was extremely smooth and much appreciated. The finals draw: Provincial 1st Grade Saturday/ Sunday East Albury (1) vs Lavington (6) at Alexander Park Wodonga (2) vs Tallangatta (5) at Kelly Park Nth Albury (3) vs St Pats (4) at Bunton Park Provincial 2nd Grade Saturday/ Sunday Wodonga (1) vs Albury (6) at Billson Park St Pats (2) vs Lavington (5) at Xavier High School East Albury (3) vs Nth Albury (4) at Wilson Oval Scots School

All together now, the beat is dragon on IT was an emotional day as 4000 people headed to Gateway Lake for the Dragon Boat Regatta at the weekend. The event, marked with a Remembrance Ceremony at its opening for those lost to cancer, highlighted the importance of team work and support - both in the boat and out.

The Regatta had 500 paddlers take to 22 community boats and three cancer survivor boats during the day. Money raised from the event will stay in the community and be directed to local cancer services. Photographer KATIE HARDMAN was on scene to capture the event.

Dragon Boat competitors gave their best effort on Saturday. 135347

Battle weary, but tough enough to last By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE filthier, harder and higher, the better. There was no taking it easy on Saturday as 300 competitors hit the AllFit Border Battlefield, tackling 9.9 kilometres of challenging terrain, 300 metres of mud, threemetre walls, and 30 obstacles at its new venue on the shores of Lake Hume. Organiser Paul Azzi said teamwork really shone through on the day. “There were a lot of teams, they helped everyone through,” he said. “Teams really got a lot out of it and got into the spirit.” Some teams used the event as pre-season training, and even stayed overnight at the nearby Great Aussie Holiday Park to enhance team

bonding. Mr Azzi said the new venue proved to be popular, despite the new course proving a little more challenging with steeper hill runs, longer mud channels, and harder obstacles. “They loved the new venue. “If they wanted more mud before they certainly got it.” The course appealed to a broad range of demographics, including a 64-year-old challenger, and even Captain Risky. But Mr Azzi warned those who conquered this year’s course not to rest on their laurels, with a bigger and better challenge possibly in the works for next year. “We’ll potentially be adding to next year’s course,” he said “We’ll see what we can make bigger and better.”
