Taranaki Electricity Trust Celebrate 25 Years On Saturday 21 July, the Taranaki Electricity Trust had a double celebration, the trust’s twenty fifth birthday and the opening of their new offices in Inglewood, the first time the Trust has had its own home. The area the Trust covers is that which was previously supplied by the old Taranaki Electric Power Board, it extends to past Uruti in North Taranaki, includes W a i t a r a , I n g l e w o o d , Stratford, Eltham and extends as far south as Te Roti. South of the mountain, the west boundary is
Awatuna and the eastern boundary extends well inland past Whangamomona. The original fund began with $16m from the sale of the Taranaki Electric Power Board and now the fund stands in excess of $100m, this is after making grants in excess of $93m over those 25 years. The TET Inglewood Stadium, Waitara Sports Complex and Stratford Sports Complex are the standout beneficiaries among many groups and organisations in our communities that have received grants. Among those attending the opening were former and current trustees including Phillip Marchant, the sole surviving original trustee and prior chairs Bill Watson and Brian Jeffares. Current Chairman John Campbell said “The Trusts new profile on Inglewood’s main street is a sign that they are here to stay”. John added that “The trust runs a lean operation with minimal bureaucracy and overheads, with part time office and secretarial services and the trustees are elected by the communities in which they live and work, so they know the people, the organisations and their needs”. John Campbell and Phillip Marchant had the honour of cutting the cake.
The original trust logo which has had v e r y f e w modifications over 25 years was hand drawn on a piece of paper by Sandra Lewis wife of early trustee Peter Lewis, after the trust had received a offer to design a logo at a huge cost. Sandra had to wait 25 years for her payment and it came in the form of a p i e c e o f t h e celebration cake.

I get asked on a regular basis do I enjoy the role of Deputy Mayor. The answer is always yes. I regarded it as an honour five years ago when you first chose me to be your councillor. When the Mayor asked me to be his Deputy, I accepted with no hesitation. I love our Inglewood district, the wider New Plymouth area and the province of Taranaki with a passion and to be given the chance to represent it at a higher level, I was very happy to do so. In my role I have the chance to meet and speak to many locals and people from around New Zealand and further a f ie ld . I use these opportunities to promote ‘our place’ as the best place to live, raise our children and do business.

It is very difficult to know just who we should blame for the mess that the Yarrows Stadium has become. Last November the East Stand, along with the offices and the changing rooms were closed due to earthquake risk. It is not that long since this fine looking facility was built but apparently they failed to put in some underground beams that are needed to make it safe. Now there is a possibility that the whole building may have to be demolished. Recently the West Stand was closed. Again, I am not sure when it was built but it is not all that long ago. The old concrete terraces were removed and a really good grandstand was made on the old bank there. It was largely funded by Noel and Melva Yarrow. The bank is now perceived to be not stable enough if there was an earthquake. Taranaki Rugby are the current holders of the Ranfurly Shield and face the prospect of defending it on a ground with no grandstands and only temporary facilities. Ranfurly defences usually attract very large crowds in Taranaki, and now it will only be a limited number who can pack the two areas behind the goal posts. A lot of money, many millions, has been spent on these two buildings and now they seem to have little or no value. Of course, they didn’t have the hindsight of the major earthquakes we have experienced over the last few years, but they got it wrong. If they build again, let’s hope they remember that the ground was only a few metres short for international cricket.
Food for thought, eh?

All Welcome Peter Anderson - President
Recently in very changeable conditions the club was able to get the Lovell Memorial Mixed 2BBB Tournament played with eight couples participating. The winners were Rodney Clough and Debbie Oulsnam with John Christini
and Maree Messenger runners up. Other results: Top Dog Winners 2018: Trev Terry and Dave Bates winning 2 up on the 17th against John Moore and John Christini. Quite a bit of excitement at the course on Saturday 14 July with Mel Wilson shooting a hole in one on the 12th. Mel's mum Chris Wilson put the challenge to the men to match Mel's feat. Paul Urbahn stepped up to the challenge and he too managed to shoot a hole in one on the 12th hole shortly afterwards. Congratulations to Mel and Paul on their feats of skill! This is the second time that Mel has scored an ace on the 12th. Ladies Midweek Top Dog: Winners: Ann Aitken and Shirley Butt, Runners Up: Jill Forbes and Sandra Willans.

welcomed. The hospital wing needs a final push to enable this to happen!!! There is opportunity to help if you do not want to donate directly (remember forms at Fun Ho! Toys) by taking part in some activities that are planned or in the pipeline.

We have moved! We had outgrown our space next to the Cool shop and on Monday 23rd we moved into our new building. You can’t miss us - The freshly painted green building next to the Z station. We are now considering how to best use the amazing space. Blair Balsom has joined our team as a Ranger. Blair has had an exciting introduction to the project being part of the kokako catching team at Hauturu (Little Barrier Island) where our birds relocated from. This week he will be out ‘beeping’ kiwi with Bob as part of our monitor programme.

A h u g e congratulations to Penny Hook a n d h e r dedicated team of district nurses. This wonderful team have recently had their three yearly audit by Health Share and have impressed the auditors who found that all the procedures and policies are complied with and are working well. This is something that those who have experienced the care and commitment that the Inglewood Health Trust give, already knew. It is a privilege to have such a service available in our community. A lot of hard work has gone into making this audit an exceptional success, and it shows the team is well and truly on the correct path.

Have you ever thought about building yourself a raised garden? They can be as simple or as complicated as you like. What kind of timber? There’s ongoing debate about what timber you should use, untreated hardwood like macrocarpa is rot resistant and looks great, but costs more, H4 treated pine is
popular because it’s economical and you can buy it anywhere and because it’s treated, it won’t rot either. The debate is around whether the timber treatment chemicals will leach into the soil you’re growing your veges in. If you’re not comfortable with treated timber you can staple polythene sheet around the inside of the planks as a barrier between the timber and soil. Just remember that good drainage is important for a raised garden so don’t run the polythene sheet over the bottom of the garden. They can be the simple 6 x 2 nailed or screwed together or something a bit or a lot fancier. There are plenty of plans on the web if you need them (most are downloadable for free). You probably have all the tools you need in your own shed. The best part about a raised garden is that you can fill it with the very best soil, which can be your own compost or bags from the local DYI store. Once you got it built it’s time for the garden. Spread about six layers of old newspaper over the ground to help prevent weed growth, then wet down with a little water to hold the paper in place while you add soil. You can then just put in your layer of compost or bagged mix from the shop, or make it even easier by simply using vege mix (a garden mix and potting mix combo). You don’t have to fill it right to the top and you are ready to go. You will be absolutely amazed at the speed and health of you vegetables and its as easy as. Have a go!!

Parihaka was breathtaking, like an old oil painting that had settled itself down to rest. Hearing the marae waiata was like listening to a nightingale sing, it sounded beautiful. Seeing the ancient buildings that could hold secrets of any kind, they looked mysterious. Climbing to the top of Cannon Hill was mind-blowing, it was like Parihaka was an decrepit map spread out beneath my astonished eyes. My Parihaka experience was awe-inspiring and ever remembering By Milly

Lions Serving Inglewood (Peter Winter)
Page 9 Issue 222
Inglewood Lions have recently celebrated fifty years of service to the Inglewood and district Community, in the year that Lionism celebrated 100 years of existence. During that time Inglewood Lions have raised $500,000 and put in many thousands of hours for various projects around the town
and further afield. These have included grants to the Fire Brigade, District Nurses, Marinoto, schools and preschool education. In addition, Lions have been able to assist individual families, those with disabilities, and young people with aspirations in both sport and academia. Nationally we have supported the children’s wing at the hospital, the Fred Hollows Foundation for the Blind, Rural Support, Daffodil Day, Search and Rescue, riding for the Disabled, Age Concern and Little Fighters, to name just a few. In Inglewood we organise the Christmas parade, the ANZAC display and often act as marshals for various events such as cycling races, fun walks, and Americarna. We raise funds with the Fertilizer Drive, the Maize Maze and telephone book deliveries, and are currently embarking on one our biggest projects yet: the Inglewood Mini Putt Course.
However, we have a Problem. Your Lions are growing long in the tooth, grey in the mane and bald in the tail, and a few have moved off to hunting grounds closer to where they now live. We are finding that although the Club remains strong and in good heart, it is becoming more and more difficult to get enough paws on the ground to accomplish all our projects current and
future. The answer: We need newer and younger Lions! With a few more in the Pride we could achieve our goals with the workload more evenly shared – and think of the ideas for new and exciting projects. Lions is an apolitical and secular organisation dedicated to serv ing the local community and needs further afield both with finance and a
hands-on approach. Moreover, it is a group in which strong friendships are formed, and its members come together socially, not only for meetings and entertainment, but to support each other in adverse times. Lions however, is not for everyone – there are of course membership fees, and a Lion is expected to be prepared to accept leadership and organisational responsibilities within the Club. However, if you think you might have the abilities and character to serve those in your immediate community, as well as nationally and abroad, give us a call.

Our small Taranaki town experiencing big changes. Inglewood is on the rise. This small Taranaki town is enjoying prosperous times with its house values rising five per cent from this time last year. New builds are increasing in value too, with the thirteen building consents issues in the 2017/2018 financial year averaging a cost of $420,000 per build, up from $340,000 in the previous year. To support this growth and help make the Inglewood lifestyle even more appealing NPDC is investing in the town's parks and community facilities. "We've already seen how NPDC is committed to developing the Joe Gibbs and PG Nops reserves into beautiful parks as well as other improvements like the Festive Lights and Windsor Walkway. Our population is growing and we're listening to our community, empowering them to decide their own future by giving organisations the security to plan ahead and develop at their own pace," says Councillor and local resident Marie Pearce. NPDC's support for the town includes: * A $500,000 spruce up for the Inglewood Town hall, this was supported by Taranaki Electricity Trust (TET) grants and allows the hall to serve the community for another century. * Jubilee Park is getting a new playground and landscaping with $85,000 from NPDC, $83,000 from TET and $40,000 from NZCT. NPDC is investing a further $80,000 to improve the park's sports fields. The park is also getting a state-of-the-art $260,000 skatepark with funding from NPDC and a $60,000 TSB grant. * $1 per year ground leases have helped secure homes for the town's Plunket rooms and squash club. * We have helped the local Lions Club with its plans for a mini-putt course in the park by granting them a $1 ground lease. * Inglewood's soccer and cricket teams are to buy their Karo Park clubrooms off NPDC for $1 and will pay a $1 ground lease. * To support the Scouts and Guides we are leasing their buildings to the groups for 1 per cent of the value. * A new path and seating in Trimble Park now offers the perfect panorama of the historic town thanks to $62,500 of funding.
