VOLUNTEERS could be rewarded financially if a councillor elect wins a spot on the Wodonga City Council tomorrow week.

Mike Fraser – standing for election for the second time – will propose a Council Volunteer Rewards Program if he wins a seat on the seven-member council.

Mr Fraser believes volunteers who give 100 hours a year to a Wodonga council program should be offered $150 credit on their council rates.

“There are more than 500 people who help with council programs and if half took up an offer then the cost to council would be about $40,000 annually,” Mr Fraser said.

“I would propose this money be found in council efficiences so there is no impact on rate-payers. Finding $40,000 savings to create this program in a council budget of nearly $50 mil-lion is achievable.”

Mr Fraser, 52, doesn’t believe every volun-teer would want to accept the offer.

“Obviously, the first step would be to ask vol-unteers what they think is appropriate,” he said.

“They all deserve something but many would not want anything. It is important we at least ask them.

“I believe a Council Volunteer Reward Pro-gram would provide to the people who give hours of their time, some assistance against in-creasing council rates and other costs of living.

“While there are some processes in place council already have for volunteers, I propose that more can be done.

“We need to build our volunteer support group as a vital resource of our city and give better support and recognition to those willing to help out.”

This is the second time Mr Fraser is standing for election to the Wodonga City Council. He finished ninth of the 20 candidates who stood at the previous elections.

FOOTNOTE: This story was written for its news appeal and should not be seen as endors-ing Mike Fraser in the elections. NewsWeekly believes the idea of a Council Volunteer Re-ward Program is worth pursuing, regardless of whether Mr Fraser is elected or not.

By TREVOR JACKSONA WODONGA resident has “had enough” of sex stores in the city openly displaying their wares.

And another two people have complained to the council since one of the two sex stores in High Street opened its doors.

The “no cover” shopfront window is the butt of their grievances.

The resident, who asked to remain anony-mous, said the front windows of the stores al-lowed a full view of the interior.

“That isn’t good for the young people in town,” the man said.

Both stores are near food outlets. One, in particular, is often lit up at night, with displays clearly visible.

“A friend said he’d parked out the front of the shop one night to go to the Thai restaurant next door,” the resident said.

“When he picked up his food and returned to the car, he looked in the shop and thought, ‘I’ve left my kids parked in front of that shop’.

“Kids aren’t as naive as they used to be, but they just get saturated with that sort of thing these days.

“Why should there be a shop so open for anyone to look in and see those kinds of things?

“There’s enough pressure on kids without that.”

The resident – who added he wasn’t trying to have the business closed, just to be made to be “a little more discreet” - complained to Wodonga Council.

Wodonga Council’s manager environment and community protection Mark Verbaken said the situation had been reviewed.

“The council’s compliance staff have re-viewed the planning application and permit for the store, and have had contact with the owner and the complainant,” he said.

“The planning permit is not specific as to what can or cannot be displayed in the window, however, it states that it needs to meet the re-sponsible authority’s satisfaction, which in this case is the council.

“There has not been a specific complaint in this case regarding an offensive item or display in the window, apart from the presence of the shop being offensive as a whole.

“We are liaising with the owner on an ongo-ing basis as to what is appropriate and what is not, and the owner is being co-operative.”

News Weekly contacted the shop but were told the owner was on holidays.

No sex, please

EditorialCycle of drugsIT used to be pure. It used to be clean. It used to be wholesome.

How times can change. Cycling, worldwide at a competitive level, is now tainted. From all reports – supported by science and speakers here, there and everywhere – there are more drugs in cycling than you’d find in corrupt countries littered with drug deals.

Five minutes ago, he was arguably the most decorated, and admired, sportsman of all time. Lance Armstrong had beaten ’em all - more impor-tantly, he’d beaten cancer. He’d supposedly ridden a pathway for all to follow.

Much has been lost in this sad, sorry and sick situation. And not only by Armstrong and those (in all sports) who have been cited, stripped of titles, finances, sponsorship and support. Stuff them.

What about the public, the man in the street who follows these sportsmen like they are modern-day saints?

Confidence, belief, faith - they’ve all been robbed from the followers.

Cadel Evans – and he’s coming over as the shining light in this fiasco – inspired Aussies to ‘hop on ya bike’ when he won the Tour de France last year. Now it’s to be seen if people will jump out of the saddle.

Speaking of which, saddles in a different sport are always big news – even more so during the spring. The big races are with us. But, as in the ‘off-season’ in football, the news is bigger away from the centre of the action.

When all the talk is supposed to be on the hors-es, much is on the men who guide them.

One of the biggest names, Danny Nikolic, may never ride again – for something that didn’t hap-pen in the saddle – while a bigger name, Damien Oliver, is under the spotlight for betting.

Who knows where it will end?And then there’s the fiasco of the Carlton footy

club ‘outing’ Heath Scotland for two (meaning-less) pre-season Cup games and a piddly fine of $5000 over his part in an incident and the ludicrous finding in Albury court.

Hopefully Big Brother, the AFL, will kick in some commonsense on the matter – and deliver a penalty 99 per cent of people believe should be the case.

Ah sport, it used to be pure. It used to be clean. It used to be wholesome.

Youth in spaceALBURY City will next week hold two ses-sions to discuss the future of the Retro Youth Cafe in the CBD.

The options for a new youth space - along with the area needed, type of facilities and pro-gramming – will be the main points of discus-sion on Tuesday at the Albury Entertainment Centre.

Young people will meet between 4pm and 6pm, while the general community will gather between 6.15pm and 8pm.

Register by calling Maralee Vogel at Al-

buryCity on 02 6023 8111.

Meanwhile, nearly 550 people responded

to a recent survey on the Retro Youth Cafe,

which found 90 per cent of young people be-

lieved any new youth space should include a

cafe, 94 per cent said the cafe was in important

source of youth based information and 97 per

cent of the general community enjoyed the at-

mosphere of the cafe.

JAMES Fallon High School has been awarded a $5000 Anzac Community Grant to create a short multimedia documentary exploring the current views of children and young people about the Anzac legacy.

The grant will assist cover the costs of project co-ordination, materials, DVDs, printing, equipment hire and launch ex-penses.

The Anzac Community Grants program provides grants to ex-service organisations, community groups, schools and other edu-cational institutions, local government, mu-seums or historical societies.

“It is vital our younger generations un-derstand and honour the enormous sacrific-es Australian soldiers have made through-out our nation’s history,” Victor Dominello, the NSW Minister for Youth, said.

MARGARET Whittaker vividly remem-bers “tagging along” with her parents to the J.C. King courts in Albury each weekend during the netball season.

Gordon and Noelene Reynolds were key players in the early days of the complex.

“Mum would be inside doing paperwork and keeping things running, while Dad was outside with a shovel and wheelbarrow col-lecting all the bindis that punctured balls and got on shoes,” Margaret said.

“We’d get there early on a Saturday and I helped Dad mark the courts with lime. He had a stringline and a jam tin to do the job.

“The markings would wash off during the week.”

Border netball officials and players, past and present, will tomorrow night celebrate 50 years of playing at the J.C. King courts over a dinner.

“A Mr J.C. King gave the land to the net-ball association,” Margaret said.

“Netball was played at Noreuil Park be-fore then. There are a lot of stories from the old days.”

Naturally Margaret, who played for a long time before deciding a few years back that she was “too old a girl” to be putting on a netball skirt, did to her children what her parents did to her. Drag them along to the netball.

“They were in the pram and I used to have them in the clubrooms,” Margaret said.

“Then they started growing, running around and playing on the courts and in the old creek that was there.”

Stories and memories like this from old netball days will flow tomorrow night. Contact Albury Netball Association presi-dent Donna on 0438 691 499 if interested in attending.

WANT to have a fun night out – and help a battling girl at the same time?

Then book a spot to the musical Spelling Bee and part of the ticket sale will go to the fund for Ciara Ryan – provided you mention her name at the Albury Entertainment Centre.

Ciara, 18 months, suffers neuroblastoma, a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in children, and is in the Royal Children’s Hospital in Mel-bourne.

The “very funny, very quirky” Spelling Bee is put on by Livid Productions, who are making the gesture for Ciara.

The show is on at the Jazz Basement on 25, 26 and 27 October and 1, 2 and 3 November.

Meanwhile, friends of Aidan and Mel Ryan, Ciara’s parents, have organised a fund-raising bar-becue at Baranduda Oval on Sunday.

The gold coin donation barbecue starts at 11am.

CRIME Stoppers are involved with the Wodonga City Council elections.

And the Victorian Electoral Commis-sion has urged people seeing suspicious activity around postal boxes or in streets to report it to Crime Stoppers – or the police.

The VEC is working with Crime Stop-pers to “protect the integrity” of postal elections in Victoria this month.

“If you know of any suspicious activity, such as persons removing items from let-terboxes along your street or within your housing complex, you can ring Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 without having to reveal your identity,” an VEC advertise-ment says.

“If you see someone in the act of re-moving ballot packs from letterboxes and require immediate police attendance, call 000.

“Fraudulent voting, theft of mail and falsely reporting crimes carry severe pen-alties.”

Voters in Wodonga go to the polls to-morrow week.

THE tireless work of Heather Watts in raising awareness of ovarian cancer was recognised by Wodonga City Council on Monday night.

Ms Watts was presented with Wodonga Council’s Eagle Award for October, which recognises residents who are involved in the community and helping others.

Finding many women had little idea about the symptoms of ovarian cancer fol-lowing the death of daughter, Kelsey, Ms Watts organised an awareness day and fund-raising walk around Sumsion Gardens on 21 April.

Sponsored by Rotary clubs and businesses, Wodonga Council and Wodonga Senior Sec-ondary College, about $2000 was raised and donated to the Albury-Wodonga Wellness Centre at the new cancer accommodation cen-tre.

The following day, the Wodonga and Dis-trict Turf Club named a race at its meeting in memory of Kelsey, a successful trainer.

Ms Watts and her supporters manned the gates to ask for donations for cancer research and raised another $700.

How Heather helps

By KRYSTEN MANUEL

PROMOTING awareness of ovarian cancer has driven Heather Watts since her daughter passed away from the disease.

“Kelsey lost her three-year struggle to a very rare cancer in December 2011,” Heather said.

“I have since wanted to promote awareness of this silent killer to women in our community. Raising awareness is most important as someone dies of ovarian cancer every 10 hours.”

Heather – and a group of like-minded women – have been inspiring the community into much-needed action.

Since Heather began the Border Ovarian Can-cer Awareness Group, more than $6500 has been raised towards the building of a new cancer centre in Albury, as well as contributing to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation.

“Since April the support of our community has been phenomenal. We have a committee with 20 supporting members,” Heather said.

“These are women who have come in and said: ‘let’s save the lives of women’ and they’re doing that.”

They sure have – and if Kay Pollard has her way the group will eventually have 1000 mem-bers.

“That’s our goal,” Mrs Pollard said. “It costs $5 a year to be a member and every cent we make

goes to ovarian cancer research.”Mrs Pollard was behind the counter at the fam-

ily-owned Wodonga Plant Farm when Heather Watts called in as part of her fund-raising drive.

The active Mrs Pollard not only donated – but offered to roll up her sleeves and help with the fund-raising.

The group has since organised several fund-raising events, including at the Boxing Day Races at Wodonga – where a race will be sponsored by McRae Motors - and a night walk on 21 February for National Cancer Week.

The Boxing Day fund-raiser is a sentimental event for Heather.

“Kelsey was in the horse industry. She grew up in Wodonga, went to pony club and worked as a manager at a thoroughbred stud farm. Her and her partner were involved with horses, she even had her own racehorse - Love Long Journey,” Heather said.

“From starting off by myself to having a com-mittee with so many generous, skilled supporters, it’s a testament to our community. The support has been amazing.

“We’ve got a few other functions in the wind, also.”

People wishing to donate, or for more infor-mation, can contact Heather on 0401 008 310. See our Pink Ribbon breast cancer feature, pages 12-16.

A GROUP of Border blokes will be twirling, grooming - and possibly praying to the facial hair Gods - during November.

And it’s all in the name of charity, as the Bor-der Mos want to raise as much money as possible for men’s health issues.

To build the bank account, the group first wants to bank on numbers.

“It’s a fun way of fund-raising,” Dan Sawyer said.

“During the first few weeks of Movember, you start seeing blokes on the street with a shade of a moustache, and you know you are not alone.

“I guess the thing which puts most guys off is the fear of doing Movember, and almost failing to grow a good moustache.

“It does take a bit of guts to say ‘yeah, I’m going to do it’, but in the end, it’s a great cause.”

The official ‘shaper’ for the group will be The Border Barber, Stan Somers, but he says his ex-pertise will be somewhat limited.

“I can guarantee, most people won’t have much choice,” he said.

“The moustache will be what nature has given them.”

The group will gather weekly at The Bended Elbow to discuss their facial progress.

“We wanted a hub where us blokes can get together and check the growth of the mos,” Mr Sawyer said.

Anyone wanting to support the group can find boxes in local businesses or go online to the Mo-vember website and search for Border Mos - and, of course, sign up and grow a mo.

CARPORTS

A drive, ride down memory laneSENIOR citizens can step back in time with a display of old cars, motorcycles and hotrods at West-mont Aged Care Services on Sun-day.

The Baranduda aged care fa-cility will open its doors to the public again as part of the City of Wodonga Senior Celebrations, in-viting people to a day of food, fun and entertainment.

A highlight will be a free dis-play of antique motorcycles, heri-tage cars and hotrods provided by multiple car clubs and individu-als.

There will also be live en-tertainment, hot roast rolls and morning and afternoon teas avail-able for a minimal fee.

Westmont chief executive offi-cer Peter de Koeyer said the facil-ity was pleased to be involved in seniors celebrations - and looked forward to the event each year.

“We are a regular participant in senior celebrations and nor-mally do gardens or straight open

days,” he said.“This year we decided to do

something a little bit different and incorporate some colour and movement in the form of these vehicles.

“There will be static displays and heritage vehicles doing free rides around the Baranduda area, perhaps bringing back memories for some people.”

Presently, Westmont is home to about 150 residents.

The residential aged care fa-cility is at capacity, with a long waiting list. Some assisted living apartments remain unoccupied and independent living villas are being built as they are required.

“We are building our com-munity over the next five to 10 years,” Mr de Koeyer said.

The vehicle display and open day runs from 10am to 3pm, with tours of the facility every hour from 10.30am.

Phone Westmont on (02) 6043 9999 for further information.

FREE-FLYING… Get out in an old car in the counrty on Sunday.

ONE of Australia’s finest tenors will feature in the final days of the City of Wodonga Senior Celebrations 2012.

Jonathon Welch, who is best-known as the man behind the ABC TV smash hit se-ries Choir of Hard Knocks, will perform at The Cube Wodonga on Tuesday, 30 October at 10.30am.

Welch is a multi-award winning sing-er, conductor, teacher, songwriter and re-cording artist.

Making his debut with Dame Joan Sutherland at the Sydney Opera House in the Merry Widow 1988, Welch has more than 60 stage roles to his credit and has performed extensively in opera, musicals and in concert.

He has performed alongside many of the world’s greatest singers, directors and conductors, including KD Lang, Baz Lurhmann, Jimmy Barnes, June Bronhill and Richard Bonynge.

In 2007, Welch’s work creating choirs for the homeless and disadvantaged in Australia was the subject of the inter-nationally acclaimed ARIA, Logie and Helpmann award-winning TV documen-tary, Choir of Hard Knocks.

Welch also created the Jailbirds docu-mentary in the Victorian Women’s Pris-ons and was a judge on the highly suc-cessful Battle of the Choirs TV series for Channel 7.

Welch has been recognised for his out-

standing 30-year commitment to the mu-sic industry, youth music education and his work with marginalised and home-less communities. He has been awarded Australian of the Year Local Hero 2008, Anzac of the Year 2009, an Honorary Doctorate and an Order of Australia in the Queen's Birthday Honours in 2009.

Welch will perform songs from his early childhood, including his most loved musicals My Fair Lady, Kismet, Man of La Mancha and The Music Man, along with Australian ballads and popular songs like ‘You Raise Me Up’.

A morning tea will be held at 9.30am.Bookings are essential at The Cube

CANCER Council Victoria is urging Wodonga residents to volunteer their time to support Pink Ribbon Day ac-tivities on Monday, 22 October.

The annual fund-raiser helps sup-port the 3499 Victorian women – in-cluding 21 from Wodonga - who will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Sadly, each year 763 women in Victoria lose their life to the disease – three whom are from Wodonga.

Pink Ribbon Day raises awareness of breast cancer with the sale of mer-chandise and pink ribbons, which are the international symbol of support and recognition for women affected by breast cancer. The fund-raiser raises money for breast cancer research, prevention programs and support ser-vices.

This year the Cancer Council hopes to raise $1million in Victoria.

“We’re eager to recruit volunteers across Victoria to help man our stalls on Pink Ribbon Day, by selling pink ribbons and other merchandise,” CCV spokesperson Kate Delbridge said.

“Every cent raised through our stalls will go directly to funding our breast cancer research and providing support services to women affected by the disease. If you’re able to offer a morning or afternoon to help out on a Pink Ribbon Day stall, we’d love to hear from you.”

If you’d like to help, contact Ly-nette Phuong on 03 9635 5201 or at [email protected].

Don’t stall, be on one “THINK Pink” is the message from the Cancer Council for Australians in October.

And the Cancer Council NSW hopes to raise $3 million through Pink Ribbon.

“Stop and Pink with friends, fam-ily and work colleagues and help the only charity that funds and supports the entire breast cancer journey for patients and their families,” is their motto. · $5 pays for an Information Support Pack to be sent to someone who has just been diagnosed with can-cer and needs information on treat-ment and assistance options. · $25 covers a Helpline consultant phone call that will provide infor-mation and support for people af-fected by breast cancer. · $50 pays for an hour from a re-search assistant. · $100 pays for the collection and processing of a set of blood speci-mens to be kept in the biobank, a vital resource for future genetic and lifestyle research relating to

breast cancer.

· $200 pays for 25 skin swabs to be sent to one of the best labs in the world for analysis.

· $500 trains a volunteer who has had breast cancer, but is now well enough to connect and talk with women who are newly diagnosed or undergoing treatment.

· $1000 pays for software to model the effects of the cervical cancer vaccine.

· $1600 provides transport and treat-ment for a month for a person af-fected by breast cancer and their carer, who have no other options available.

· $3000 pays the costs of a facilita-tor to conduct a monthly telephone support group for people with ad-vanced cancer and $70,000 pays for production and stability testing of new anti-breast cancer drugs for one year.For more information or to sup-

port Cancer Council’s Pink Ribbon,visit www.pinkribbonfundraiser.com.au.

Where pink dollars go

Doing your bitEVERY day, 48 Australian wom-en are told they have breast or gynaecological cancer.

It’s a horrifying statistic – and one which led to the formation of Pink Ribbon Day.

And you, yes you, can play a big role in taking on the fight against cancer in women.

Why don’t you – or the com-pany you work for – organise a

pink-flavoured morning or after-noon tea, lunch, raffle or sports day. Or maybe you can sell mer-chandise or work on a stall.

Whatever you do, don’t keep the information ‘mum’.

Cancer councils across the country urge people to spread the message. So go to it and help lower the number of women hit by cancer.

HAPPY DAYS… Women readying to watch a TV show on Pink Ribbon Day.

WE know the myriad of effects of can-cer are not strictly contained within one person.

Emotionally, mentally, and, to some degree, physically, families experience a high cost when one person is struck ill.

But what about practical hardship? This is an area where Wodonga Real Estate’s Fran Wernert sees first-hand the devastating effects of families struck by cancer.

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s a landlord, vendor or tenant, of which we are all one,” she said.

“It has a massive impact.“We have a number of tenants who

have gone through breast cancer. It af-fects them financially, it affects the kids, relationships, even maintaining the house.

“The impact is often not fully re-alised until someone has come through and survived.”

The high cost of treatments, time off work and travel can send families to financial ruin. Which is why sys-tems such as the Mortgage Assistance Scheme from Housing NSW are so valuable.

However, the real backbone of fi-nancial assistance for cancer sufferers stems from fund-raising. With so many selfless people donating and organising

fund-raisers, women with cancer can be comforted in knowing they are not alone - financially or otherwise.

Like many groups in Albury Wodon-ga, the women of Wodonga Real Estate are doing their bit.

“The girls have organised a girls night in for staff,” Fran said.

“We did invite the boys, but it’s a pyjama party and beauty night. It’s a donation to get in and we’re going to raise money that way.”

Wodonga Real Estate owner Vicki Hodgson said “you cannot let the side down.”

“You have to do all you can to sup-port and fund that research.”

Every dollar helps

WITH all the media dos and dont’s floating around the C-word, you can count on exercise as a sure thing to lower your risk of cancer.

“Evidence shows that 30 to 60 minutes of physical activity per day significantly reduces the risk of breast cancer,” said a report written by the World Health Organisation.

So why not start now with Fern-wood’s latest offer - 14 days gym access for just $20 in support of Pink Ribbon Day.

Studies have also shown stren-uous exercise through adoles-cent years and constant exercise

throughout life will also reduce the risk of women getting cancer. One study concluded that women who exercised moderately after a diagnosis of breast cancer, had improved survival rates compared with more sedentary women.

“We have a personal trainer who is also a physio who can help you with any programs you may need,” said Ann Wilkesmann, the owner of Fernwood Albury.

“All our staff at Fernwood - in-structors, members and personal trainers - are all female.”

ONE of Wodonga’s fastest growing es-tates, White Box Rise, boasts of eco-friendliness and offers a healthy, active lifestyle - a lifestyle with no room for cancer.

“White Box Rise’s whole philosophy is about being eco-friendly,” land sales manager Amanda Kotzur said.

“You can walk to the shop, the doc-tor, the athletics track, the school and the aquatic centre.

“We’ve delivered massive amounts of parkland so people can be surrounded by and encouraged to utilise the environ-ment.”

Aside from being an astute business-woman, Amanda is also a young mother, representing and reminding us just what this means in an age of high incidence of cancers in women.

“I met a young lady who suffered through cancer in real estate. We struck up a relationship and I watched her through her journey.

“She was very inspirational - a sur-vivor.

“She was so young. She has a daugh-ter and for me it put things in perspective. It can affect any age and as a mother, you want to see your children grow up.”

Although time and money are pre-cious, it’s important to be reminded that every hour or dollar we donate is taking

Foundations for the future

MAMMOGRAMS are known to be one of the more uncomfortable tests women can undergo, but are a necessity given the prevalence of breast cancer in our modern society.

But a digital imaging machine at the Gardens X-Ray Group is helping to make the test a little more comfortable.

It has been given an apprecia-tive applause from women across the Border over the past year.

“The customer response has been really good,” Wayne Ashton of the X-Ray Group said.

“Patients can come knowing they have the most comfortable, most technologically advanced systems available.”

The Philips MamoDiagnost DR machine provides high quali-ty digital imaging with more com-fort and less radiation for patients.

“The image quality is the best you can get and the dose of ra-diation is as low as you can get,” Wayne said.

A year on and the system is still the most current of its kind and can only be found locally at the X-Ray Group.

The stereotactic biopsy device has also been “a huge success.”

“The device has been fantastic for the patients who have needed it,” Wayne said.

“It means they don’t have to travel out of town ... it allows the radiologist to place the needle exactly where the legion they’re looking at biopsying is.”

Mr Ashton believes the $250,000 the MamoDiagnost ma-chine cost, was money well spent.

“That’s the investment we’ve made to give our patients the best available care,” he added.

“I have two children, two and four years old. I hope that when they’re adults we have the equipment, the medicine and the technology to procure it, so they don’t become a statistic,” Amanda said.

“I hope people also have the right ac-cess so that people without private insur-ance can still have the same quality of treatment and people who live rurally can have the same medical opportunities as those who live in the city.”

LADIES, forget the diet and treat yourselves to Cup Day at the Newmarket Hotel Breast Cancer Luncheon.

Anyone for Atlantic salmon, chicken kiev gorged with creamy camembert, baby spinach and pancetta, mini cheesecakes and chocolate eclairs?

Hotel part-owners Phil and Leanne Nicholson are opening their doors in the name of breast can-cer support.

“It’s an issue close to our hearts,” Mrs Nich-olson said.

“Immediate family and close friends of ours have been touched - this is a tribute to them, to remember their struggle.”

Hosted by the ever-entertaining Steve Bowen, festivities include sweeps, raffles, lucky door prizes, prizes for best dressed and best hat and, of course, the perfect menu to pair with a glass or three of bubbly.

Numbers are limited and bookings are essen-tial. Call 02 6021 3332 by Monday, 5 November.

Cup lunch winner

STUDENTS and faculty at the Albury Wodon-ga Community College know the importance of education and ‘giving back’, when it comes to women’s cancer.

Starting with education through health pro-grams and visits from health workers, students can look forward to soon participating in a symbolic relationship with local fund-raising organisations.

“We have a health program to educate the students on cancer and a health worker who talks to the students about women’s and girls issues,” Marg Crisp, the education officer at the college, said.

“We find students have people in their fam-ily with cancer and they may not know how to deal with it and find it difficult to cope.

“That’s one of the reasons why education on

the issue is so important – it’s a challenge.“We’re trying to get them back into educa-

tion with a long-term outlook as to where they are in the workforce.

“We would definitely like to be involved with women’s cancer groups. We would like to actually get the students working as volunteers.

“It’s a two-way street … we have them link-ing into those networks and then participating and helping those networks.”

The college will be having a cupcake sale to local businesses to raise money for Pink Rib-bon Day.

“Next year we will send out notifications for local businesses and send the students to those participating businesses. We are hoping to both give back to and utilise the community to men-tor and teach the students.”

FAMILY has always been the “core and com-mon value” of Dysons.

“It is this attribute, above all else, which has made Dysons what it is today … and what it will continue to be through future generations,” a company statement said.

Care and respect, honesty, accountability and teamwork, are the four pillars which Dy-sons operate by, according to Brett Drinnan, the North East Regional Manager of Dysons.

“Without these, we do not have the basis for a successful company,” Mr Drinnan said.

“At Dysons, we take pride in what we do and how we do it.

“We are mindful of our place in the com-munity and, in turn, what we can provide it through our services.

“Dysons are a company with vision. We constantly look for opportunities to propel ourselves into the future to make our exis-tence secure in the area of public transport.”

Mr Drinnan said the public transport net-work locally was “first rate.”

“We offer the latest ultra-low floor ve-hicles which allow for easy ingress and ag-gress for the disabled and the infirm, with the vehicles being fully air-conditioned for pas-senger comfort.”

It’s all in the family

CLOSE KNIT… Lance Deacon, Les Dyson, Maisie Deacon, Tracey Dyson (back), Col Dyson, Anita Dyson, Jen Stewart, Brad Dyson, Lachlan Dyson and Roy Dyson are descendants of founder Laurie Dyson.

TWIN TOWERS… Brett Drinnan, manager of Dysons at Wodonga, stands between two showpiece buses.

DYSONS Bus Lines were one of three busi-nesses who were the first inductees into the Victorian chapter of the Family Business Australia Hall of Fame.

The award was made to Dysons at a Hall of Fame ceremony during the annual state conference of FBA in Melbourne earlier this year.

Haymes Paint and Wittners Australia were the other recipients recognised for making a significant contribution to Victoria.

“We recognise the work Dysons have done in Victoria for decades,” founding FBA chairman David Smorgon said.

“The national presence they have dem-onstrates that family businesses are really something special.”

Dysons and the other award winners were said by the FBA to have “exemplified the fundamentals of successful multi-genera-tional family businesses.”

“Each generation of these businesses has built on the reputation for quality their parents and grandparents worked so hard to establish,” Trudy Alcoe, executive officer of FBA in Victoria, said.

“When Laurie Dyson bought a bus busi-ness from his old boss in 1952, he had four ‘clapped out’ buses.

“Sixty years later, Dysons operates more than 350 buses and coaches from Melbourne up to the Northern Territory.”

FROM the heart of the city to the shad-ows of the CBD … it was a move that had to be made.

The Dyson Group of Compa-nies officially began operating in the Wodonga region on 2 July, 2008, when it purchased Mylon Motorways, a family-owned business that had been operating in Wodonga for just over a century.

Then the depot was in High Street – handy to “this, that and everything.” However, it was to be only a matter of time before a move had to be made.

The vehicle entrance at 153 High St became overworked, the entry and exit being via a rear street and having to be negotiated through a public car park. Some vehicles had to be parked in another yard off-site.

So a much roomier site was bought in July, 2009. Fast forward to the pres-ent day and the nearly two hectares at 18-20 Moloney Drive, Wodonga, can hold 70 vehicles, the workshop is ca-pable of handling four vehicles at any one time and includes a detail bay and wash bay.

And whereas getting buses in and out of the site had been a nightmare at High St, this isn’t the case at the site in the industrial estate adjacent to the Hume Freeway.

The move could be called progress, in more ways than one.

Move that had to be

THE year was 1952. Laurie Collins Dyson was working as a bus driver, struggling to make ends meet when his boss, Ned Gastin, passed away.

Then aged 48, Laurie was offered the business – which was four ‘clapped out’ buses and the rights to one route.

Oh, and he had a 13-year-old apprentice mechanic and two drivers. You could say L.C. Dysons Bus Services started by accident.

Not so its growth, as today there are about 350 buses and 700 employees in Victoria.

With headquarters in Mel-bourne, Dysons has depots at Bairnsdale, Moama, Leon-gatha, Kyneton and, of course, Wodonga.

Margie Hill remembers her late grandfather, Laurie Dyson, fondly.

“He was a man of vision,” Margie said.

“I started working for the company 28 years ago, when I was 15,” Margie, who is the events and social club co-ordi-nator at Dysons, said.

She started in the Mel-bourne suburb of Reservoir, now the headquarters are at Bundoora.

“My grandfather had amaz-ing vision for this place - he knew this part of the world would flourish,” Margie com-mented on the present site.

“And he had vision for the company.

“His main goal was to cre-ate jobs for his family, in par-ticular.

“He wanted the business to do well and grow. He would be amazed at how big the com-pany is today - there are about 700 employees. He would be a very proud man.”

One could say Laurie Dy-son made an investment … an investment that without his ability to gain and maintain loyal friendships, an excep-tional work ethic and a family who offered devout support, could have seen what is now a thriving transport business, collapse in its infancy.

Laurie Dyson passed away in 1984, aged 80.

On the buses – by accident

ROYAL RIDE… Cobb & Co delivered mail many, many years ago.

A very, very big part of history.That’s what Dysons got into a de-

cade ago when they bought the iconic Cobb and Co.

Now many companies loosely call themselves “iconic”, however, Cobb and Co never had to. It just is.

Dysons took over the title when it purchased the Bell Street Bus Com-pany in the early 2000s.

“The naming rights will give you plenty. They will mean as much as any-thing you’ve done, or will do,” a long-time and senior figure at Cobb and Co said at the time.

REMEMBERING… Buses from 1983 (left) and 1967. Memorabilia from Dysons Road Show.

A TRIP down memory lane – highlight-ed by a Road Show – is how Dysons cel-ebrated its 60th anniversary.

On 1 June, L.C. Dyson’s Bus Servic-es Pty. Ltd. chalked up six decades in the passenger transport industry.

The Road Show visited Dysons six depots at Wodonga, Kyneton, Leon-gatha, Bairnsdale, Moama and Mel-bourne over a four-month period.

The “remember when” over lunch at each venue was surrounded by an impressive display of memora-bilia and three meticulously restored

historical buses.Guests at each Road Show included

Dyson family members from five gener-ations, past and present staff and various business clientele.

Dysons became a member of FBA (Family Business Australia) in 2003 and has twice been honoured with FBA’s ‘Family Business of the Year – Third Generation – Victoria’ and ‘Family Business of the Year – Third Generation – National’ awards in 2003 and 2009. The awards celebrate the achievements of Australian family businesses and their contribution to our lives, culture and the

Australian economy.Dysons, started with four buses by

founder Laurie Dyson, now operates 350 coaches and has about 700 staff.

It is one of Australia’s largest coach operators and offers local charter and luxury tour coaches, including major event transport special services, Victo-rian Government V/Line contracted rail replacement services and Department of School Education contracted services, school route services, including special community and district contracts and short distance metropolitan commuter services.

By TREVOR JACKSON

DESCRIBED as a Melbourne music institution, Paul Williamson’s Ham-mond Combo is bringing its high-energy, upbeat sounds back to the Jazz basement tonight.

The band has been somewhat of a regular fixture at the Border venue.

Having played the first Jazz basement gig in 2004, they’ve since returned several times, on occasion with Motown legend Gil Askey of Dianna Ross and Stevie Wonder fame.

Frontman, vocalist and saxo-phonist, Paul Williamson, has played with some of the biggest Australian and international acts, in-cluding Deep Purple, Dire Straits, Jo Jo Zepp and Men at Work, to name a few.

Likewise, Tim Neal has a wealth of experience, including working with The Swingin’ Sidewalks, The Feelin’ Groovies and Banana Oil. He brings the classic sounds of the B3 Hammond organ to the stage.

Drummer and vocalist, Mike Jor-dan, is well known in jazz circles for his work with the Brian Brown En-semble and Art Attack.

Venue owner Graeme Cook said the band had proved popular with jazz and blues fans in the region.

“Their last Jazz basement gig was October 2006, so it has been a long time between drinks,” he said.

“They are a great combo and an iconic Melbourne-based group.”

Attendances have continued to grow at the Gateway Island venue, with newcomers and a loyal, regular fan base.

And while Mr Cook said they strived to provide the best quality gigs possible, attracting many over-seas artists in the process, the venue also helped produce a solid follow-ing.

“We’ve worked very hard over the years to make the gigs happen,” he said. “Musicians certainly recog-nise this and enjoy coming here.

“The room produces a great sound and we have a great sound engineer in Callum Gough.

“We have been attracting interest from lots of international artists.”

Tonight’s gig kicks off at 8pm, with the bar open from 7.30pm.

IN 1924, Italian film director Angelo Drovet-ti embarked on an epic 8000 nautical mile voyage with his movie camera.

The result, Dall’Italia All’Australia, (from Italy to Australia), is regarded by many as the most comprehensive film made of any migrant voyage.

Melbourne writer and historian Anthony De Bolfo will introduce and commentate on this early silent film at Chiltern’s Star The-atre tomorrow night.

The film showcases the panoramic views witnessed by Italian, Yugoslav, Greek, Ara-bic and Jewish migrants as they stood atop the deck of the Regina d’Italia (Queen of It-aly) during their seven-week world odyssey from Genoa to Australia, by way of Egypt, the Suez Canal and Sri Lanka, arriving here in September 1924.

The film is also accompanied by a soundtrack of lively Italian folk music by Aria award- winning musicians, “I Viaggia-tori” - The Voyagers.

The cost of the film, barbecue tea, discus-sion and supper is $20, or $10 for the film at 8.15pm. Children are half-price. Bookings to Lois Hotson on (03) 57 261 358 or [email protected]

A bloody masterpieceBy KRYSTEN MANUEL

MOVIE: Killing Them SoftlyDURATION: 97 minutesIN a triumphant display of breath-taking cinematography and sublime acting, director Andrew Dominik has artfully created a fly-on-the-wall view of crime as a way of life.

Every word is meaningful, every breath is noted, every bead of sweat is tasted - and the violence? The violence is raw, fleshy, savage and delicate.

Having adapted the 1974 novel, Co-gan’s Trade by George Higgins, Kill-ing Them Softly is set in the gloom of New Orleans and tells the story of a heist that goes wrong. Two exception-ally dumb guys fresh out of jail are

hired to rob a backroom poker game. With no effort spared, Markie (Ray Li-otta) is pinned for a robbery he didn’t organise.

Markie’s “talking to” is an appetiser for the main course of violence served up throughout the rest of the movie.

Enter Jackie Cogan (Brad Pitt). Jackie is hired by the mob to restore or-der, but suffers from an inability to kill, or should I say, a slight conscience, to kill people he knows. Jackie likes “killing them softly” from a distance. Though from the flapping bloody mess of a stomach he left one victim with, one would have to say the “softness” is all Jackie’s.

The film explores the unwelcome parallels between crime and the broad-

er, economic state of America as busi-nesses. The constant screeching chalk-board of politics and idealism makes several appearances in a cynical, al-most laughable contrast to the painful-ly vivid but more real situation at hand.

“It was gritty and intense. It was a bit much for me but at the same time it was so real,” Carly, who scored it three stars, said.

“It was a good change of pace from the blockbuster movies to a select few awesome performances,” Ben said.

“It was good that it made you think, ‘what’s the connection?’ America’s problem is corporate business, we’re all on our own and it’s all about the money.”

WITH GEOFF HABERECHT OF TRU HIFI

OVER the past decade there has been a significant change in the electrical retail market.

We have seen the market dominance of long-term well engineered products make way for short-term fashionable products.

The strength of the internet - and the growth of public relations companies – has been coupled with the organised so-cial network community.

The change has quite often seen the commentary now more important than the product.

In many cases, what may suit a mass market may not necessarily suit you.

A significant issue is musical home entertainment, where we see the oppo-site of the general perception for many

people aged over 50.“My hearing has diminished to the

point where I cannot hear the differ-ence,” is the common comment.

With this misconception, the quality hi-fi system has been downsized to a ba-sic $300 to $400 stereo that never had the opportunity to replace the enjoyment of music.

As you age, the enjoyment of music doesn’t diminish - it simply requires a sound system to take in the changes.

Music should come from a direct source, reflected and surround systems may be detrimental to the primary role of clear acoustics, especially in the voice region. This means it is even more im-portant to connect your TV to the sound system.

Thirty years ago, only a small per-centage of products looked to the marketon price alone.

Today’s fixation on price alone has reduced the ratio of product offerings. However, quality products are still avail-able.

You do not purchase a television without seeing or hearing it on normaleveryday programs, similarly you don’t judge a sound system until you listen to a sound system at normal listening levels - and comparing the sound systems for the richness of sound in the middle fre-quency region. Middle frequencies are where most vocal activity occurs.

And the older you get, the more itmakes sense to invest in a better sound system without the bells and whistles.

Investment for life

THE successful return to Australia for hifi shows in 2011 has provided the country with an annual event rotated between Melbourne and Sydney.

Sheraton on the Park in Sydney is this weekend hosting the 2012 version.

With larger demonstration rooms - and 60 premium brands - this will be the largest exhibition of fine au-dio the country has seen.

I will discuss the many new and future product releases, plus cutting-edge products that were on display at the Australian Audio and Video Show, in my next column.

Say hi to hifi

HAPPINESS… Music can provide smiles all round when the sound system is changed.

AN entire gallery has been transformed into a giant playroom for the exhibition ‘Under The Story Bed’, being held at the LibraryMuseum in Albury during Chil-dren’s Month.

Under the Story Bed features fully-equipped cubbyhouses, an indoor camp-ing centre, reading pod and a giant mod-el bed that doubles as a secret place to indulge in an array of books, games and toys.

But it’s not just kids’ stuff, and par-

ents and guardians are encouraged to play and interact with the colourful dis-plays.

Under the Story Bed space is for chil-dren aged two to seven.

Up until 11 November, children will be encouraged to venture into a magical world and enjoy the books, toys, games, puzzles and crafts.

Learning and Outreach Co-ordinator Caryn Giblin said Under the Story Bed was a wonderful world for little people

to “let their imagination run wild.”“The exhibition encourages children,

parents and caregivers to turn their chil-dren’s bedrooms into simple, inexpen-sive creative play areas.”

A special Under the Story Bed story-time happens at 11am between Monday and Saturday during the exhibition. An outdoor play space will also be held in conjunction with the Applause Festival in QEII Square on Saturday.

It’s not kids’ stuff

By TREVOR JACKSON

WE’VE all heard the often used catch-phrase of the above head-line, but this property can boast just that.

The opportunity to create something special is presented in one of the best streets in Wodon-ga’s sought-after Willow Rise Estate.

Privacy is assured, and adds to the appeal, with neighbours on one side and a green belt and park on the other.

Here you’ll find easy access to the city’s walking and cy-cling trails, while a short drive to Pearce Street ensures convenient access to the city’s major road distributors.

The home lends itself to the handyman/renovator, providing the perfect blank canvas for those willing to use a bit of elbow-grease and reap the rewards fur-ther down the track.

It’s all there – it just needs a little TLC to create your own oa-sis.

New carpets, paint and ducted heating and cooling ensure the necessities are in place, ready to add your touches.

Step down into the sunken, formal lounge room for those cosy nights entertaining family or friends.

A brick feature wall, complete with arch leads to the main din-ing area, with access to a small

front deck. This could easily be extended to create a real alfresco dining experience, overlooking the garden and park.

The spacious kitchen is cer-tainly in need of TLC, but with gas cooking, dishwasher and ample cupboard space, the pos-sibilities are limited only by your imagination.

The master bedroom includes a large walk-in robe and spacious ensuite bathroom, while the two remaining bedrooms are spacious and include built-in robes.

These are serviced by a large main bathroom and separate toi-let.

Outside the possibilities con-tinue, with more than enough space for a family pool, play-ground setting, or whatever you might desire.

A paved entertaining area is in place, just right for those sunny afternoon barbecues.

The yard comfortably wraps around three sides of the home, with ample room on each side to create separate outdoor living for all members of the family.

Access is simple, through the carport or via two other gates, making the job of landscaping and maintenance a little more convenient.

If you’re looking for a prop-erty to add your touch to, or if you’re after a long-term invest-ment plan, this could be the per-fect opportunity.

Location, location, location

ON THE RISE… This home has all you need... and more.

THE only weekly television show about the localproperty market, MPTV, has just entered its fifthseason.

Almost 300,000 people are watching across Australia and online to learn more about the mar-ket and the selling, buying and leasing of real estate.

Unlike reality TV shows about real estate, MPTV provides the basic advice you need tomake informed decisions about real estate.

The show is screened every Tuesday at 7.30pm on TV4ME (digital 74 or 64 depending on yourlocation) and repeated on Thursday at 7pm.

Hosted by Des Dowling, MPTV visits a dif-ferent suburb each week, meeting the experts and providing viewers with important informationabout the local area and its market. The show has visited over 40 different locations: from Bendigo to Fitzroy; from Point Cook to Pakenham.

The weekly panel looks at topical issues, like should you renovate or build a new home fromscratch? How do you choose the right real estateagent? How do you make the switch from owner-occupier to investor? Each of these segments isavailable for viewing and reference at a later date from www.melbournepropertytv.com

The show is backed by a range of real estate professionals, including the REIV, Fletchers, In-folio Property Advisers, ME Bank, Archicentre,HIA, Empower Wealth, NRAS Superstore andStewart Title Limited.

Experts from each organisation provide advice and quality information.

Importantly, every Monday morning you can watch a two-minute market wrap online, which reviews the performance of the market over the previous week in most parts of Australia.

To view, just visit www.reiv.com.au on Mon-day mornings or watch the Tweet from @REIV-ictoria.

FIGHTERS from all parts of New South Wales and Victoria will converge on the Border tomor-row for the Australian Amateur Boxing League’s Fight Night Under the Stars.

Local boxers will take on all comers, with a women’s bout being a highlight.

The event is at the open-air venue of the Kinross Hotel and organiser Graeme Melbourne expects a bumper crowd.

“The last time we had it out at the Kinross, it attracted close to 1000 people,” he said.

Melbourne said local fighters to watch includ-ed Wodonga’s Adam Doody and the John Fraw-

ley trained Josh McGrath from Albury.Doody is trained by Kevin Hasler in Wodon-

ga, who said his 20-year-old charge is as “fit as a fiddle”.

“He has had four fights, won three and lost one,” Hasler said.

“He has grown as a person - his attitude, he’s a good fighter and a good guy all-round.”

Doody said while he was feeling nervous, he believed his form was good.

There’s the weigh-in of fighters at 1pm, with gates opening at 5.30pm for a 7pm start. There will be a raffle and auction of memorabilia.

COUNTRY Hope, a locally-based family cen-tred support organisation for children with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses, will benefit from Sunday’s annual Mayor’s Trophy golf day.

Held at the challenging Commercial Golf Resort Albury, the event is an 18-hole indi-vidual stableford championship for A and B grade division - and caters for handicap and

non-handicap golfers.The event is run by Albury West Rotary

Club. The day begins with registration and a barbecue at noon, followed by a shotgun start at 1pm.

Entry is $45 and includes golf and lunch and a chance to win the main trophy and other events.

Entry forms are available at golf clubs, golf-ing retailers and Rotary clubs.

THEY used to get battered, now Walla Walla Cro-quet Club does the battering.

After being in the wilderness since 2006, when it entered the interclub series, Walla Walla finally won a Battered Ball competition – a 10-match an-nual interclub event between Walla Walla, Albury and Wodonga.

The Walla Walla ‘white’ team comprised cap-tain Alan Hunter, Belle Cahill, Elaine Krause, Melba Muller, Merv Wegener, Ruth Kotzur and emergencies Wendy Tolley, Judy Wegener and Ross Krause.

Walla Walla won eight of its 10 games, includ-ing 12-3 and 9-1 wins against Wodonga Yellow and 14-1 and 13-2 victories against Wodonga Red.

Then there were close wins, against Walla Walla Green 8-7 and Albury White 8-7.

Dog-gone day for some

By TREVOR JACKSONMATT Chahda has continued his rise up the mo-torsport ladder in Australia, winning his last out-ing in an open-wheel Formula Ford.

And now the Border-based driver has the op-portunity to add a bit of international experience to his resume.

Chahda has been offered a drive in a Legend race car in Las Vegas for the national series final on a flat-track road circuit.

Bronson Butcher, a friend who is competing in the States in the Legend series, threw Chahda’s name in the hat - and Chahda accepted an offer to drive.

He’ll head to the States in early December.“They had a couple of seats available and were

about to advertise the drive in Australia,” Chahda

said.“Bronson told them I’d like to have a run and

they offered me the drive. They want internation-al competition - what we do is flat track drivingwhere they do a lot of oval stuff.”

The Legend race cars are similar to Aussie Racing Cars.

They run a similar chassis and motorcycle en-gine, with an old-school body on top.

While Chahda said he’d had limited time in the Australian version, he considered his flat-track experience would bode well against his American competitors.

“I don’t know all the details yet, I’ll just get to Las Vegas,” Chahda said.

“It’s something good to add to the CV, if I go well. It will show I can jump in a different car,even in a different country and drive well.”

Border boy for States

JUST weeks ago, every man and his dog was at the Lavington Sports Complex for the grand final of the 2012 Ovens and Murray Football League.

Last Saturday, there was just a woman and her dog on the outer at Lavington when the first ball was bowled in the 2012-’13 cricket season.

PETER SWEENEY captured the woman and her mutt having a ball, while the men in the middle were chasing balls.

THE transition from dirt to bitumen hasn’t fazed Felicity Wardlaw.

In fact, the Albury Wodonga Mountain Bikers club member, who recently finished runner-up in a gru-elling 24-hour mountain bike in Can-berra, is making her mark on the road.

She was recently victorious in the Women’s Masters Cycling Champi-onships in Goulburn, consisting of time trial, criterium and road race stages.

Wardlaw took out two gold medals and a silver to clinch the title.

And last weekend she managed a credible seventh in the National Road Series Shipwreck Classic at Warrnambool, racing for the Bicycle Superstore TORQ team.

After being asked to fill in for the team in a road event, Wardlaw has taken to the genre with a passion.

She says her mountain-biking fit-ness has helped, but the experience offered by team-mates was invalu-able.

“It can be daunting jumping into a national road series without having done much road cycling,” she said.

“The challenge has been learning team tactics and skills for riding in a large peloton.

“I have some good and experi-enced team members who have pro-vided good mentoring, which is what you need when you’re quite green.”

Wardlaw heads to Ballarat this weekend for the final round of the na-tional series.

She says the course should suit Border cyclist Lisa Barry.

“It’d be really good to get a plac-ing,” she said.

“But it’d be better to have a couple of our riders in the top 10.”

Simply, ORR-some

A winner on all surfaces“OFF and racing.”

That will be the call tomorrow when the Wodonga Turf Club hosts the first of eight meetings for the 2012-’13 season.

Hot on the heels will be the Mel-bourne Cup day fixture.

Sportsmen and women from many winter sports are tomorrow expected to head for the sports marquee.

“It’s $20 to get in and that includes a couple of drinks and a band,” WTC manager Brad Thomas said.

“We’re expecting it to be a big hit with teams winding up their seasons. Given good weather, we’re budgeting on 2000 people on Saturday.

“We’re planning on many families coming. You can bring everything ex-cept alcohol and there will be many activities for children.”

The first local race is at 1.40pm, with gates opening two hours earlier.

LAVINGTON-BASED equestrian photographer Peter Orr snapped Canberra-based Eleanor Miller and her steed Kaloona Grace clearing this jump during a NSW pony club championship at the Al-bury-Wodonga Equestrian Centre. Some of the competition was can-celled, due to a thunderstorm and a waterlogged course. However, a talk by Olympic Games bronze medallist Shane Rose on his ex-periences from pony club to elite level competition more than made up for the downtime.
