Sons and daughters are draining the bank accounts of their elderly parents, says Age Concern, with around 50 reported cases in Nel-son this year.Age Concern came forward with its concerns around elder abuse in Nelson and Tasman after read-ing the new chief medical officer’s comments about the region’s age-ing population in last week’s Nel-son Weekly.Age Concern Nelson manager Sue Tilby says Dr Nick Baker is spot on to highlight the issue and they are disturbed and concerned about the increasing number of abuse cases they are working on. This year alone the organisation has 65 proven cases of abuse in Nelson and Tasman, 14 of those for self-neglect, the rest by carers ripping off older people.“We see a huge amount of finan-cial abuse here in Nelson, a huge amount,” says Sue. “It mainly comes from family members, in

fact 77 per cent is from sons and daughters ripping off their par-ents.”She says others befriend older people with an ulterior motive to rip them off. She says it’s hard to get the money back and in two separate cases this year they’ve seen one woman befriend a lonely elderly lady only to have massive cheques writ-ten for her. Because the woman signed the cheque they can’t get the money back. Another case was a carer who was given an elderly woman’s credit card and pin number. She used it to withdraw $25,000 for herself. Because the woman supplied her with her pin number, no charges were laid and the bank refused to

Dive pool back up and running

Kids rip off elderly parents

It’s bombs away at Nayland Park Pool. After a summer without access to the dive well, the opening of the new season wel-comed its return with hundreds of people pin dropping, bombing, flipping and diving back into the most popular pool.Last year the dive well had to be closed due to leaks. Pipes were replaced and “a lot of work was done over the winter” according to facil-ity manager Dave Mckenzie. Dave admits it was frustrating having to close the pool over that period. “We lost some of our clientele. The dive pool is a big pool for the teenagers,” he says. “But it’s all they want to use now. For the teen-agers it’s [popular because] they’re jumping in the air, doing the classic bombs and plenty of tricks.”Nayland Park Pool is open seven days a week on Nayland Rd, Stoke.

try to recover the money.She says sometimes they can press charges on the abusers, through police, if the victim will give them permission to investigate. Often they can’t.Other major issues are family members not putting elderly parents into homes because they don’t want them to spend their money, or stealing their money once they are in the homes. “People know the care is costly if they’re not entitled to a subsidy and they see it as their money, their right disappearing far too early and people don’t want their parents to spend their money. We’ve seen an older parent live in appalling basement conditions in a son and daughter’s house because they want to keep that person there because of the money side of it. It’s awful,” she says.“On the other side of the coin, one that pops

up quite frequently is we’ll get a call from a rest home saying that a person there has no money and then they find out that the family member managing their money has taken it.”Age Concern’s Jess Breeze says self-neglect is also a big issue and of the 14 cases this year she has seen some horrible living conditions. “There have been several really bad cases this year but one of the worst was coming across a client who had very advanced dementia and he wasn’t able to live in his home because there was no space to walk and there was rotting food and rodents and things. It was squalor.”She says the best way to help those people is for neighbours and family to report any con-cerns they may have. “We had quite a successful incident recent-ly where a man was living alone in not the greatest environment but we had a neigh-bourhood that was really connected and I had several calls of concern from the neigh-

bours so it was good to know that his neigh-bours were looking out for him. If you see something that doesn’t look right, make a call. It’s better to be over-cautious than not say anything at all,” she says.Age Concern has just three staff with a fourth likely to join soon, as the workload continues to increase.Age Concern’s main role is to provide sup-port, advice and advocacy information but it also provides education around elder abuse and organises a volunteer visitor service. Sue says she was thrilled to read Dr Nick Baker’s comments in the Weekly last week, where he stated the growing population of elderly in Nelson was a “major concern”.“We’ve done a bit of research around Nelson and we’re going to have a higher than aver-age older person ratio in Nelson. Everyone’s scrambling and trying to keep on top of it but if we don’t act now it could turn into a huge crisis.”

TUESDAY 19 November 2013NelsonYour Community Newspaper Weekly

Forget slow loading webpages or lagging online videos, if a group of tech savvy locals have their way Nelson will become the next “Gigatown” - with the fastest internet speed in the Southern Hemisphere.A national competition is set to determine which New Zea-land town will become the first on this side of the globe to re-ceive one-gigabyte per second broadband speeds – up to 100 times faster than most cities around the world. The competition, being coor-dinated and delivered by tele-communications company Chorus, will see towns all over the country battle it out to be-come Gigatown. And Nelson is already making its mark says David Brydon, who is spear-heading the project. Along with other keen individuals, he’s already got the ball rolling and Nelson is currently ranked 15th in the competition which ends next year and is judged on community involvment via social media. “The title ‘Gi-gatown’ implies that you are a forward thinking technol-ogy hub and that is a major in terms of what it could do for

Nelson,” says David. He says winning the competi-tion will bring more interest from technology companies and attract larger investments to Nelson. “High speed broad-band is a major drawcard. It will bring more businesses, in-cluding more small businesses to town. Nelson also has a huge number of contractors that work over the internet and ser-vice the world. I know a num-ber of people who are working with people around the world.”Winning the competition would drive business and in-novation in Nelson he says but it was also about the kudos that would come along with win-ning the title too.

Local game writer Edwin McRae who relies on the in-ternet for his career says he is in constant contact with game developers both nationally and internationally and says he would love to see Nelson be-come a Gigatown. “If we did win it would certainly make life for a digital nomad like me much easier. The better the broadband the easier it is. Just having a high res skype con-versation would be nice.”David and Edwin are urging anyone who is interested in helping Nelson become the next Gigatown to come along to a meeting at the Bridge St Collective next Thursday, No-vember 21, at 5pm.

Blow out leads to scrap between two car shows

A scrap has broken out be-tween the committee of the Nelson Car Show and one of its former members, who is the organiser of the new Nel-son Motor Show.Last week the committee of the Nelson Car Show issued a statement that they were in no way associated with the new show and claimed that its or-ganiser Steve Steele stole their dates and location for the 2014 show, which will be its tenth.Steve was a committee mem-ber of the Nelson Car Show and helped organise it for a number of years. He and fellow committee member Rik Thomas left the committee in September and told the remaining committee members they were starting a new show. “[Mr Steele advised] us that he was starting a new event, us-ing our previously confirmed venue and dates,” wrote the remaining car show commit-

tee members, Karl Tompson, Justin Radford, Graeme and Wendy Blincoe. “This event… has been given a very similar name to the origi-nal Nelson Car Show, and Mr Steele continues to make state-ments implying that his event is a continuation of the Nelson Car Show. This is untrue. The Nelson Car Show is no longer in any way affiliated with Steve Steele or his recently formed event.”But Steve says he left because organisation of the Nelson Car Show Trust was shambolic and he didn’t want to be a part of it. He says the 2014 event was canned by the committee so

he left to start his own show. “They shut the show down and then they reopened it, in the meantime I’ve changed what I do and now I’m Nelson Mo-tor Show. I went and got all the sponsors and kept the event going. The reason they shut down is because they were having in-house problems.“So I said I’m outta here, I’m not putting my name to that.”Steve says his new show is far from just cars and he already has planes, gyro-copters, boats and even a bus joining the hundreds of cars. He says the new show is reg-istered with IRD and has al-ready attracted a grant from

the Canterbury Community Trust.The Nelson Motor Show will be held on February 14-16 at the Tahuna Beach Holiday Park, dates and a location that Steve says he booked under his name, not Nelson Car Show. He says his move wasn’t dis-loyal and he worked hard for the Nelson Car Show, doing “most of the work” and the committee wanted to go in a different direction, “so I left them to it”.The Nelson Car Show com-mittee says their tenth show will be held the weekend be-fore the motor show at Tahuna beach and it will be free. “We find ourselves once again facing hurdles due to circum-stances beyond our control. [But] the show will go on.”It will be reduced to a one day event and stripped back from many of the other attractions at this year’s Nelson Car Show.It says it will not accept any donations for the show be-cause it doesn’t want to be the “target of rumours claiming monetary profit”.

The burn out competition was a highlight of the Nelson Car Show. It won’t be happening next year and the organisers of the event have split in two. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

“Is Broods New Zealand’s next pop wonder?” – that’s the headline US website Billboard decided to throw on top of their interview with Nelson musos Georgia and Caleb Nott, who have attracted plenty of interest since releasing their debut single “Bridges” last month.The former Garin College students, who were members of The Peasants when they were at high school, were praised by Billboard – one of the world’s premier music magazines. Billboard’s contributing author Jason Lipshutz was, like many other journalists, quick to point out the ties Broods have with Lorde who currently tops the Billboard Hot 100 – the American music industry standard singles popularity chart.Georgia, 19, and Caleb, 21, have been working closely with Joel Little who produced Lorde’s debut album “Pure Heroine”, and of course, Broods and Lorde are young New Zealanders, so for international media it’s easy to draw comparisons. “The associations with Lorde are natural – and like ‘Royals,’ Broods’ ‘Bridges’ is a startling single that yearns to be heard again and again,” Billboard wrote. “‘Bridges’, the debut single by the brother-sister duo Broods, freezes the listener in his or her tracks from the opening second.”And even though Georgia told Billboard that “we have to build our own identity outside of Lorde and the rest of New Zealand music”, the early connection has no doubt boosted their exposure. “Bridges” has already been played more than 200,000 times since

being uploaded to the band’s Sound Cloud page last month and multiple YouTube channels are already posting the audio.Georgia has often been praised for her stunning vocals. At the time of winning National Smokefreerockquest, judge and NZ on Air repertoire executive Tania Dean said it was “totally different from any other New Zealand singer,” and labelled it “powerful, emotional and dynamic”. “She actually left me speechless.”Caleb played guitar in the band when they were known as The Peasants of Eden and came second in the 2010 edition of the competition. He left school the year after, moved to Australia, before returning to Nelson and working at retail store Sidecar.The Peasants split late last year, and Georgia and Caleb are now living in Auckland where they are making their latest breakthrough in the music industry.

Nelson’s own garden show continues to flourish with an incredibly busy event this year says Nelson Growables Garden Fair event manager Jo Reilly.The fair, now in it’s fifth year, attracted thousands of green thumbs who were keen to pick the brains of local gardeners and growers, who had plants, produce and flowers on display and up for sale.“We were very happy with how it worked out. It was really fabulous to see how many people were buying trees and plants, there was a relaxed atmoshpere and an educational, garden focus.”More than 80 stands representing local gardening products and services, gardening hardware and

accessories, alongside garden arts and crafts were perused by the crowds who also enjoyed workshops, demonstrations and interactive learning opportunities.Jo says the highlight of the event was seeing “trees grow legs” and leaving the event, with people keen to take something home to plant straight away. “The food growing revolution that we’ve been seeing over the past few years is very much continuing. The health benefits, the budget benefits are all there when you grow your own food. Even if you are only growing tomatoes and lettuce, you will notice the difference in the taste and the quality.”

It’s taken a while, but residents of Wakapuaka and Hira have finally come into reception and will now be able to send and receive phone calls and messages to their Voda-fone cell phones.Despite being just ten minutes out of Nelson, the surrounding hilly terrain has meant residents have been unable to get reception to their cell phones – until last Tues-day. A 30 metre lattice tower installed in Hira will provide mobile cover-age and wireless broadband for the first time to over 190 households in the area. Vodafone will also up-grade its site at Atawhai, improving coverage and capacity. Under the government’s five year Rural Broadband Initiative Hira was identified by Vodafone as needing a new tower to improve coverage and is just one of 54 new towers it will install in rural areas all over New Zealand.The tower will be of benefit not only to residents of Hira in terms of convenience, but in dealing with emergencies, transport logistics,

road safety and other circumstanc-es previously hampered by limited coverage.Hira School Principal Kevin Ward says he’s pleased with the move and labels it as “all good progress in moving forward”. He says he wasn’t aware it had come “online” until his cell phone started ringing. “I thought ‘hang on, that doesn’t normally happen’.” He says having tradesmen and parents able to contact them at any time is a definite plus and the school was already connected to wireless broadband.A spokesperson for Vodafone says the new tower at Hira has been planned for quite some time and was part of their goal to achieve government community coverage targets. “Locals will be able to use it straight away but can also find out if coverage from the new tower at Hira extends to their address on-line or by calling.”

Plans for a new and improved Buxton Square toilet block have not been completely flushed down the loo, despite a takeo-ver from the Nelson City Coun-cil says project coordinator Lee Woodman.A group of volunteers were still very much involved in the pro-ject over the weekend, despite the council taking back con-trol to ensure the makeover is completed in time and is legally compliant.Nelmac, contracted by NCC, will carry out the remainder of the project as of this week. It was hoped to be a commu-nity run development. Les says while the group attracted many great volunteers it struggled to

get professional tradesmen on board. He says it is still very much a community vision de-spite the takeover.

“At the end of the day it will still receive a great makeover at a third of the price of what it could have cost.”

Experienced Appearance Medicine ProvidersWhen it comes to appearance medicine it is important to choose somewhere with experience. In the last 3 years Caci has treated over 10,000 people with Botox®, and every treatment is performed by trained Registered Cosmetic Nurses.

Here are answers to questions you may have about Botox® and Dermal Fillers:

What is the difference between Botox® and Dermal Fillers? Botox® is used to relax specific facial muscles, softening facial expression lines, however dermal fillers are used to restore facial volume. Dermal fillers are injectable gels used below the skins surface to provide support and structure to add natural – looking volume, revive the youthful contours of the face, and plump lips.

Can you get a natural look with Dermal Fillers and Botox®? At Caci, they pride themselves on giving their clients the most

natural results possible. In fact most clients say that their friends and family comment on how great they look, but cannot pin point that they have had any treatment.

Is it affordable? One of the main reasons clients don’t have appearance medicine

treatments is the perceived cost involved. The cost varies with treatment. Caci offer Amerase™ treatment plans to make it easy for people to manage. These annual plans at Caci start from as little as $30 per week.

How long does it take and how long will it last? Treatment takes 15- 45 minutes. You will start to see Botox® results in 3-5 days, and Filler results will be seen immediately. Botox® can last up to 4 months and fillers last up to 12-18 months. TAPS NA6772

A house that burnt down in Stoke on Friday has since been found to have been housing a commercial cannabis growing operation.Police say they, along with the Fire Service, are still working to find the cause and the origin of the fire in Manson Ave but it was

through those investigations that they found the growing operation.“While attending the scene police discovered the house was set up as a commercial cannabis growing operation,” says detective senior sergeant Wayne McCoy. “A quantity of cannabis plants was

recovered and police have spoken to the tenant.”He says charges are likely.Wayne says no one was home when the fire broke out, but all bedrooms in the house were dedicated to the cannabis operation so it was doubtful anyone was actually

living in the house. He said indoor cannabis cultivation was becoming increasingly common in Nelson he estimated police were uncovering one indoor grow room a week. Police also took time to praise the quick actions of the fire service.

Burnt house was growing cannabis

“No one has ever drowned between the flags,” Ed Steenbergen simply says, just two weeks before he and 34 others will start patrolling Tahunanui Beach for summer.Ed, who was named Lifeguard of the Year at the 2013 South Island regional Surf Life Saving Awards of Excellence earlier this year, is proud to say his club is in a good place right now. Volunteer numbers are at an all-time high and they’ve just acquired a new site at the beach which will include a first aid room, lunch room and space to put rescue equipment.The Nelson Surf Life Saving Club recently moved into the new premises across the Tahunanui Beach car park. The building was previously vacated by the police. “Ideally we’d like to be on that side of the car park,” he says, pointing at the beach. “But this is the closest to it.” Currently there are 35 volunteer

lifeguards with another six in training. The ages range from 14 to 45 and the reason for the strong numbers can be put down to the new nipper programme for children up to 13 years old. There are 60 kids involved in that programme. “We only had ten members four years ago.”Ten lifeguards have pagers that are linked to the police and can be on call at any time of the week. Ed says Tahunanui Beach “looks nice and safe” but there are still dangers, including water currents and wind. “Most of our rescues are of kite surfers who get blown or sucked out into Tasman Bay. It’s a reasonably safe place but you only need an inch of water to drown in so it doesn’t take much to create an emergency.”Injuries needing first aid, such as cut feet, is also a common occurrence, along with the odd-tsunami warning.

A 1080 aerial drop and ground operation around Nelson and Tasman hills has locals up in arms over their access to local forestry for hunting and walking.While sodium fluoroacetate – known in pesticide form as 1080 – is always a controversial issue, a current operation involving aerial application of bait across 22,600 hectares of Kahurangi Na-tional Park and adjacent forestry blocks has some local landowners and users of affected areas upset.The TBfree New Zealand pro-gramme, managed by the Animal Health Board, is doing aerial pos-sum control operations in a bid to stop the spread of bovine tuber-culosis (TB), a highly-infectious disease affecting farmed cattle and deer. TB has been found in possums, cattle and wild pigs in various areas bordering Ka-hurangi National Park, which is known as a major reservoir for the disease. Adjacent for-estry blocks and areas from Up-per Takaka and the Barron area across to the lower Flora Steam, Mt Campbell and upper Riwaka will all be affected.The operation will see cereal baits

dropped out of a helicopter at a rate of two kilograms per hec-tare. While the bait is toxic to possums, it is also poisonous to other species such as predators to native birdlife like rats and stoats but also deer, wild pigs, dogs and goats – and it’s these that have lo-cals put out.Due to the toxic nature of 1080, local deer and pig hunters, horse riders and dog walkers will be unable to access areas being bait-ed under the operation.Claudia Manderson, a Brooklyn Valley resident and landowner, says she will be significantly put out by a dropping zone less than a kilometre away from her home and wishes it wasn’t going ahead.She says she believes the opera-tion near her home is completely unnecessary. “I don’t see any point in going ahead with this operation. There are hardly any possums found here. The area could have been managed by in-creased ground control for this season, which would have spared

us from the aerial drop. “She believes the operation, being conducted ahead of the tourist season is a mistake. “How does it look when tourists pass signs with skeleton and crossbones while looking for a relaxing healthy holiday?”Nelson resident and Deerstalkers Association vice-president Bill

O’Leary says he opposes the use of 1080 because it is an “indiscriminate killer” and he believes the current operation will take out a number of other species. “It takes out game animals such as deer and from a hunters point of view that is my

principal concern. We hunt all year round and we’ve got some real issues as far as deer goes. They are very susceptible and die a horrible death, in agony. “He says another concern is the withholding period because dogs, when used for pig hunting, are extremely susceptible to 1080.“People who are pig hunters will find they cannot use the area for a long period of time.”Local pig hunter Gray Parkin-son says he has more questions than answers when it comes to the dangers of 1080, but says he doesn’t see why they need to aeri-ally bait areas. “There are other ways of controlling possums. You can’t take your dogs in because

if they kill a pig or eat a possum that’s been poisoned it will kill them.”He adds that there is no doubt other animals will suffer from the drop. “If it doesn’t kill other animals then it wouldn’t be work-ing. All I know is I have been in places that have been 1080’d and it’s just quiet. There is no birdlife, no sound.”In contrast, one local organisa-tion is pleased the drop is going ahead. Forest and Bird supports the use of the poison as the only way of protecting native birdlife from predators such as stoats and rats, says Nelson Tasman branch sec-retary Gillian Pollock. “Bird, lizard and insect life does come back in abundance after 1080 is used, it is noticeable after the following breeding season. Although some kea have eaten 1080 and died, overall their pop-ulation also benefits because their eggs and chicks are ravaged by stoats, possums and rats. Where kea numbers are low it is because of these pests. All ground nesting birds are particularly vulnerable to pests.”Pre-baiting for the operation was completed at the start of the month and the remainder of the project will go ahead from last week to December 5. Recreation-al users of forestry will be alerted to 1080 drop zones and baited areas via signs at each entry way and in some cases, people will be stationed to inform the public.

Crowds welcome the Lord NelsonNelsonians gave a warm welcome to the tall ship Lord Nelson as it entered the harbour for the first time over the weekend.Crowds of people lined Rocks Rd, Sunderland Memorial Pier and Wakefield Quay to watch as the ship made it’s way through the cut on Saturday afternoon.The ship was built in 1986 and is designed for able bodied and disabled crew. It is on its first visit to New Zealand. Welcome coordinator Milo Colden of the TS Talisman Sea Cadets, says the welcome was “an

amazing opportunity” to connect with our namesake. “Admiral Lord Nelson was a huge naval hero and was one of the greatest seamen and leaders of all time. We have streets named after his ships, the battles he fought in and the officers who served after him so it’s a big connection for this city.”The Lord Nelson will be berthing at Port Nelson’s coastal berth, but will not be able to hold an open day due to crew changes and work projects preparing for a voyage to South America.

Alcohol licensing changes handsThe members of a new alcohol licensing committee have been confirmed with the new regional body to take control in a month.The Nelson City Council District Licensing Committee replaces the district licensing authority and will make decisions on applications for renewed liquor licenses and managers certificates. It will also consider more criteria when deciding whether to grant an application for special event licenses.

These include how the proposed event will impact the good order and amenity of an area, any local alcohol policy, and the design and layout of the area for the proposed event. The new committee is dominated by councillors or former councillors but will be chaired by retired district court judge E.O.K (Oke) Blaikie with councillor Ian Barker as his deputy. Other members are mayor Rachel Reese, deputy mayor Paul Matheson, councillor Kate Fulton

and “community members” and former councillors Derek Shaw and Gail Collingwood.The Sale and Supply of Liquor Act 2012 comes into full effect on 18 December and, under this Act, the DLC will be the decision making body for all liquor license applications. Rachel says members of the DLC are required under legislation to have experience relevant to alcohol licensing matters.

“There’s a very strong pool of community and decision-making experience in the appointments here and that’s important as the community can now have greater input into local alcohol issues under the new Act,” she says.The appoointments coincide with work to the Local Alcohol Policy which has been open for public consultation. The council is due to hear submissions before making any changes to the draft policy and adopting it.

This week I want to let you know about the change that’s about to take place to the law in relation to anyone supplying alcohol to people under 18 years of age.At present it is an offence to buy alcohol for a minor, unless you are their parent or guardian or you supply the alcohol at a private gathering.New rules being introduced from 18 December will place more restrictions around who can legally supply alcohol to a minor and in what conditions.These new conditions are all about ensuring anyone who is supplying alcohol to a minor is doing so in a safe and responsible way. It means is that if you choose to supply your teenager with alcohol you will be required to supervise the consumption of that alcohol.“Responsible supply” of alcohol to teenagers includes ensuring food and non-alcoholic drinks are also available, making sure safe transport is provided and being responsible about the quantity and strength of the alcohol supplied. The intention of this law change is to ensure parents and guardians who supply alcohol to teenagers use a bit of common sense and continue to take responsibility for their welfare during and after the drinking taking place.All too often my staff deal with drunken teenagers and out of control parties where parents have bought alcohol for their kids then let them go off out with their mates. To be honest, it astonishes me how many parents regularly do this sort of thing and more often than not it ends in tears.With this law change, those parents or guardians will now have to step up and take full responsibility for their actions. Failure to do so could result in you being fined up to $2000. We all know teenagers aren’t great judges of what is safe or unsafe at the best of times. Add to that mix a belly full of alcohol and we create extremely vulnerable people. Their decision making will be compromised and they become easy targets for criminals. This law simply aims to keep kids safe by preventing offending and victimisation. I think it sends a pretty clear message to parents that they need to be a whole lot more responsible about what they’re allowing their kids to do. If not, they will be held to account.

All motorcyclists are being en-couraged to get out for the Route 6 motorcycle club Dice Run.This Saturday, more than 100 mo-torcyclists are expected to take part in the mystery 160km round trip, which starts in Richmond and finishes at the Abbey.Participants can sign up for $15 from the Stables Richmond car park before 10:30am. From 11am sharp the riders will then head into Tasman stopping off at five pubs along the way, where they will get to roll the dice at each

stop. The rider with the highest total at the end of the day will get a cash prize and there are plenty of other spot prizes on offer too.Club captain Richard Eddington says the event, now in its third year, has been popular and all mo-torcyclists are welcomed. At each pub the publican will hand a bottle of spirits to the owner of his or her favourite motorcycle.All of the prizes will be dished out at the Abbey, where there will also be a free barbeque. The event will go ahead no matter the weather.

Motorcycles ready for ‘dice run’


The goal was simple: “To get kids fishing again”. And having seen the smiles on chil-dren’s faces as a result of hooking their first ever rainbow trout, trustees of the Sport Fishing for Youth Charitable Trust believe it is working.Just four years ago the trustees were look-ing at “bare land”, says Richard Boyden. Now they fish alongside children at three functional fishing ponds filled with hun-dreds of rainbow trout, some up to 4kg in weight, adjacent to the Waimea River.The trust schedules kids fishing days where children between the ages of six and 16 are taught how to catch a trout. Volunteers, who have a background in fishing, are on hand with a net for those lucky enough to land one. Once the fish is caught, the child picks up a rock, smashes it on the fish’s head and takes it over to be weighed, cleaned and gutted. Richard is a member of the Nelson Trout Fishing Club and says young people just aren’t joining anymore.

“We need more kids off the street, off the computer and fishing,” he explains, helping out at the second to last kids fishing day of the year.When asked if it had exceeded expecta-tions, Richard believed it had. “We’re all very pleased and very much hap-

py with the whole thing. Seeing the smiles on the parents, the photos taken, the kids are loving it and they want to come back.”The Sport Fishing for Youth Charitable Trust this year took out the supreme title at the Trustpower Nelson Tasman Com-munity Awards.

Representatives for the trust will next year attend the national awards ceremony, but reflecting on the win, Richard says in some ways it has worked against the charity. “All the funding people they get lots of ap-plications and they probably figure any-one with a supreme award will probably be right [without it]. So we’ve lost out on about half of it.”It costs $5000 to purchase 336 rainbow trout from the Canterbury Fish Hatchery, and Richard estimates another injection of fish will be needed come-February. Be-cause of the huge costs, he says the mission for the trust is to get more funding, per-haps from a big corporate sponsor. “But we’re accomplishing what we want and that’s the main thing.”The next kids fishing day will be held on December 15 and anyone looking for their children to participate can book in at Fish & Game on Champion Rd. Richard says helpers, who need to have a passion in fishing, are also needed.

School gala a huge successA great turnout to the Hampden St School gala on Friday evening has seen more than $20,000 raised.The annual event is incredibly suc-cessful each year says principal Don McLean, so it came as no suprise to see the huge crowd that came to support it this year. “The crowd would have been well into the thousands, we were really thrilled with the turnout.”While parents and supporters of Hampden St School turned out in full force, it wasn't unusual that a great number from other areas made the ef-fort to support the event too. “That is really important to us. It is really good to see people from outside the commu-nity, share in our community.”Peter Gould of Stoke and his family at-tended because “it's a great way to help them raise money for their school”.

Nelson City Council has spent $1.4 million on land and buildings near Wakefield Quay as part of a plan to create “stronger linkages” from the city to the sea.The council last week announced the purchase of the Anchor Building and land as well as the land where the Cus-tom House is.The Custom House building and busi-ness is owned independently.In August the council resolved to pur-chase the properties and agreed to pay $1 million and $460,000 respectively for the Anchor Building and land, and the Custom House land. It took pos-session of the Anchor Building and land on October 31 and anticipates taking possession in February of the Custom House land. The rating valuation for the Anchor Building and land was $611,000, though the independent valuation ob-tained by the council was $1.10 mil-lion. Rating valuation for the Custom House land was $270,000, though the independent valuation obtained by the council was $455,000.This land, combined with the council’s previous purchase of the former 4 Sea-sons and Reliance Engineering build-ings and land, now create a significant land holding says the council.

Stoke teen to design Hollywood filmsNCC snaps up Anchor building on water front

A Stoke teenager has become the first New Zealander to be accepted to the prestigious Art Centre College of Design in Los Angeles – a stepping stone to working on Hollywood movies.Liam MacDonald has been working towards entry to the school for the past four years after a chance encounter with the university’s then chair of entertainment design in Nelson.That meeting gave Liam a goal after first picking up a pencil as a four year old and hardly putting it down since. His love of drawing and art was then channelled into entertainment design, or designing the look of movies and video games.The course is extremely difficult to get into but Liam has already been to the school twice, once in the school’s summer school class, which gave him a taste of the work load.He says he’s thrilled to be accepted but the course costs $80,000 a year and despite $30,000 in scholarships, he’s still trying to raise enough money so he can get his US visa. Once he raises enough money for the first year, his four year visa will be granted.Liam has spent his first year

out of school working full time at New World Stoke while also working full time on his entrance portfolio.He’s also been drawing pet portraits and doing some art commissions but he says unless he can raise the remaining $50,000, of which he has almost half, he won’t be able to accept the place in the school. “It’s the number one industrial design school in the world. My major will be entertainment design, designing things for movies and games so working alongside a movie director to design the movie. You get the script and then design everything from the character costumes to the environment, architecture, transport, props.”He says it’s as much of a science degree as an arts one. “There was one guy who was studying a train wreck in the snow so he had to know when the carriages fell off, how the oil would sit in the snow and how the tracks would bend under heat and pressure so there’s heaps more that goes into it.”If you’d like to donate towards Liam’s dream, you can donate online at givealittle.co.nz and search “Liam MacDonald” or email him at [email protected].


The Nelson North Country Club is gearing up for one of its biggest nights of the year when it will host its sixth an-nual Speed Shear.The night starts with competitors across four divisions shearing sheep on a stage in the club, a fleece throwing competi-tion and ends in a team’s competition that has as much to do with humour as it does competition.President of the Wakapuaka-based club, John Taylor, says it’s a great night for the community and says visitors from around the region are encouraged to come along and enjoy a great night.“It’s a good activity that suits this area but it’s also a chance for people in town who’ve never seen anything like this before to come in and have a look,” he says. “People that do come sit here and they’re glued to it. They really enjoy it and the more the merrier.”The Speed Shear is held to coincide with the Nelson A&P Show as some of the country’s top shearers are in town. Club member and former winner John Haw-ley says around 30 shearers will com-pete and it’s impressive to watch.

“We’ve had the top shearers in New Zealand here, they’re generally doing the show circuit so they’re pretty good, they can polish off a sheep in 24 seconds so it’s not bad is it?”The fastest shear of all time is just 14.6 seconds.All money collected via entry fees go back to the shearers as prizes but the club benefits from meal and drink sales.While the top local and visiting shear-ing are the top attraction the teams

event at the end of the night is often the most talked about. It involves a team of four, one of whom must be a woman and one a shearer, doing one task each. One has to shear, one wind an old fashioned shearing ma-chine, one drink a beer and the other eat something that can’t be digested eas-ily, like Weetbix or a cold pie.The Speed Shear is being held this Saturday at 7pm at the Nelson North Country Club in Wakapuaka.

Two dogs at the centre of a battle between their owners and Nelson City Council have been put down.Last week the council reached a settlement with the owners of three dogs involved in an attack on then-mayoral candidate Brian McGurk in September while he was door-knocking in Ta-hunanui.The owners of the dogs Paris, Honey Bee and Bella have taken responsibility for the actions of their dogs, says Nelson City Council, and volun-tarily agreed to euthanize Paris and Bella. In return the council has dropped charges against owner Leah McQuillan as a result of this negotiated outcome. It has also waived the fees to impound and euthanize both animals.Honey Bee, which the investigation indicated did not pose a threat during the attack, was re-turned to her owner. The Dog Control Act 1996 requires the council to handle reported attacks through an investiga-tive process, and negotiated settlements are pos-sible as long as community safety is not risked. Information discovered during the investigation prompted an order to seize the dogs, which were impounded.

An historic Nelson building has been saved by its owner who says he couldn’t live with himself if he were to pull it down as Nelson’s architecture has already gone from looking “important” to looking like a “toon town”.Robbert Steigenberger bought the former church manse, bikie headquarters, restaurant and health centre at 144 Collingwood St last year and says he found out pretty quick that he had to do something to stop it losing money. The ideal solution would be to pull the circa-1876 building down and build four town houses on the property but he refused to go down that route.“Economically it would have been better to pull this down but I’m probably too romantic for that, I couldn’t do it. I’ve seen so much pulled down in Nelson, it’s bloody awful and then they build crap in its place.”He says it’s a shame to see the old stone, concrete and brick facades of Trafalgar St go and he was determined that his building wouldn’t go the same way. “Trafalgar St looked important 100 years ago. It looks like a Toon Town now.”The former health centre was on the market for two years before Robbert bought it and he says in that time a number of health businesses that leased a room in the building had moved on. He held a meeting with the remaining tenants when he bought it to say it would continue as a health centre and he unsuccessfully tried to lure some of

the old tenants back from the newer purpose-built facilities that have popped up around town.He says he lost $45,000 in the first year and the second year was going the same way. “So I thought ‘no, we’ve got to do something’.”So Robbert is giving the building – which is across the road from the Nelson School of Music and in front of Marsden House Funeral Homes – enough work that he hopes will see it survive for another 137 years. “We’re stripping it back as much as possible, trying to save what we can. We’re spending $200,000 to do it right.”He says the building will go out for lease once the work is finished at the

end of the year and he’s hoping to secure a tenant as soon as he can. He’s also after some history of the building. “There are no records or plans at the council, nothing. We haven’t seen any photos, if anyone has any information we’d be really happy to hear it.”Robbert says he first entered the building in the 1980s when it was a restaurant named the Dead Priest. He fell in love with it that night and says he’s still in love and is thrilled to be able to restore it and own it. “I fell in love with the building, it’s never been to make money out of. I don’t like speculating with property,” he says. “But it has become a bigger job than I thought it would be.”

Baby name gets rejected:Just wanna say that I think parents should be able to name their chil-

dren whatever they like as long they are decent. If I wanted to call my daughter Princess I should have that right without it being

rejected by Internal Affairs. Get with the times. Stuart R Cole.

What utter garbage. Since when has it been a law that people can't

call their new born what ever they want? Hell we came from a society that gave us

surnames after what occupation we had. William Cleaver.

It's a pretty fair law. Excus-ing this above case but it's

cruel to the child naming him/her something ridiculous like anal, talula does the hula or a freaking symbol e.g "*" "." (Via website).

You could understand vul-gar names being banned

but seriously. Who do these toss pots think they are, banning names like this? Just another con-trol governments would like to use to keep their people under rule. Good on you for fighting for your rights. Peter Cannon.

Best name ever heard is La-a. It's not Laa or La-

uh. It's Ladasha because the dash don't be silent. Naming Game.

I have a relative that want-ed to call her daughter Jus-

tice, it was not allowed but she was

allowed Justyce. Stupid as its said the same way. A Relative.

You should be able to call your child whatever you like apart from

swear words as your child has the right to change their own name when they are old enough if they do not like it. But a name should be something that is well thought about as there are so many ways for bully-ing these days and names are one of them unfortunately. Aleisha Brunell.

Aleisha - "your child has the right to change their own name when

they are old enough if they do not like it" - that won't take back years of likely bully-ing at school/lost opportunities at an early age being given an incredibly fringe name. The law has a definite role here, in this case it was wrong/the lady makes a convincing case/was successful in her case to have it overturned. B Morgan Murrah.

Fish frenzy in Nelson Haven:We should have gone fishing! Ellie Thomson.

Bloodied footpaths along Rocks Rd. Shay Wilson.

Pfff, fish! At the Glen we've been swimming with dolphins the last

couple of days... Linda Nichols.

Tahuna BBQs:We used the new BBQ at Tahuna Beach the other night and loved it.

Thanks NCC. (Via text).

Police crack down on drivers:I read with interest your article on Nelson Police targeting car enthu-

sists in town for the 4 and Rotary cham-pionships. As someone who attended both events of the champs I think it was great what the police were doing. I was stopped twice, no problems so I went through. Peo-ple got upset at it but I personally have no problem. Daniel (Via text).

No dogs at Village:It has been brought to our atten-tion, over the last few days, that

prospective buyers looking at properties in Waimea Village have dogs, and it would seem that they have been given to under-stand that there is a probability that this would now be acceptable. It is not, and never has been. The Lease agreement firmly states that no dogs are allowed in the Village. There is no likelihood of this being changed.Could you please advise your salespeople and branches of this matter, as it is causing unnecessary grief to prospective buyers, and just creating another uncertainty for existing residents.Yours faithfully, Jerry Rowland, chairman, Waimea Village Residents Committee.

Nelson Airport has been helping people take off for 75 years – a huge milestone for a town that every year sees more people touch down at its airport every year than the region’s entire population. Nelson’s aviation history started with the landing of an Avro 504 in 1921 and has since seen the town flourish to become one of the busiest centres for scheduled flights in the country. To celebrate the significant anni-versary, people are invited to a free com-munity open day at the airport, Saturday November 30, between 10am and 4pm.Nelson has come a long way in aviation since that first plane landing, which was actually bound for Brightwater but ran short of fuel prompting a stop at Marsden paddock in Stoke. The town’s isolation by mountains and sea meant that travel by air was met with enthusiasm by the entire community and was grabbed with both hands by the Harbour Board, who spear-headed plans to bring a functioning com-mercial airfield to the region. So Nelson

Airport was born.Current Nelson Airport chief executive Kaye McNabb says that in the earlier days Saxton Field was the first aerodrome in use. “Saxton field was where the Aero Club was based, but it soon became clear that it was not going to be adequate for the long term.” After finding the site where the airport as we know it now resides on Quaran-tine Reserve, Nelson Air-port was constructed and opened and functioning by 1938 with the first commer-cial flight taking off on the 30th November that year.“The next major event that really put Nelson Airport on the map was the moving in of the RNZAF No. 2 Gen-eral Reconnaissance squad-ron. When they arrived it

really became one of the major Cook Strait defence bas-es during the war. That gave rise to the building of two large hangars, which are still in use today as well as a number of other airfield build-ings.”Nelson Airport has always been up there when it comes to commercial flights, but a steady growth in de-mand has seen it become the fourth busiest commercial airport in New Zealand, rubbing shoulders with

major centres such as Wellington, Auck-land, Christchurch and Dunedin. Around 800,000 passengers touch down and take off there every year and it’s taken out the

Airport of the Year award three times in 2008, 2010 and more recently 2012.With 63 different businesses operating out of Nelson Airport, the milestone anniver-sary is not just about the daily arrivals and departures passing through the terminal doors, but the hub that Nelson Airport has created as a whole says Kaye. “The busi-nesses such as Air NZ Technical which repairs and maintains the ATR and Q300 aircraft, and HNZ Global, an international business centered here means that the air-

port contributes more than $80 million a year to the local economy.”It is easy to draw comparisons look-ing back on the way Nelson Airport has

changed over the years. The original terminal, what is now used as the archive shed, made way for a replacement that was built in the 50s says Kaye. “Alot of people will remember using that terminal. There were buckets to catch the leaks coming through from the ceiling and a pot belly stove for heating.” The current terminal was built in 1975 and was refurbished and ex-tended in 2002. A fea-ture that still remains a fond memory from the original décor is that

“wonderful 1960s carpet” which was re-placed but used in a World Of Wearable Art entry, a waistcoat that now hangs in the airport as a reminder of what once was. “You can imagine that passenger numbers back in 1975 were in the hun-dreds, where as now they are over 800,000 per year. We’ve had it replaced twice since, in 2002 and again in 2011.”The evolution of Nelson Airport won’t stop at its 75th anniversary either, with a development of the airport further north

to expand the area available for general avia-tion parking. “And the next development people should expect to see over the next 12 months is a complete revamp of the parking and traffic access to the airport, followed very closely by a terminal expansion.”The anniversary of Nelson Airport will be cel-ebrated on Saturday November 30 with a free entry, open to the public event. Crowds well into the thousands are expected to gather at what Kaye describes as a true community airport. “We very much think of ourselves as a part of the community.

and the New Zealand Company’s barracks and storerooms. Following the Wairau Massacre in 1843, the hill was hastily fortified and named Fort Arthur, in honour of Captain Wakefield who died at the Wairau.

Sam Field, 16, in his first game for Nelson claims his first wicket against Canterbury Country at Marsden Rec on Saturday. Photo: Evan Barnes/Shuttersport.

Nelson batsmen fail to fire in rep friendlyThe good news was watching a young 16 year old spinner take his first ever rep wicket for Nelson, the bad was watching the visitors from Canterbury Country take far too many of their own.Nelson failed to fire with the bat in its two day representative “friendly” at the Mars-den Rec on Sunday. After losing the toss, Nelson had battled well in the field with Waimea Toi Toi United youngster Sam Field celebrating his first rep wicket and Nelson holding the visitors to just 243.The main star of the Nelson bowling ef-fort was fast bowler Joe O'Connor who grabbed a five-for.Captain Ryan Edwards says he was im-pressed with the side's effort in the field.“I thought the bowling was outstand-ing, all the seamers and all the spinners bowled particularly well. We stuck to the plans, we never gave up, we didn't bowl loosely, we put the balls in the right areas.We had to be patient and wait for things to happen and we did that and I would have taken the total we bowled them out for.”He says it was a nice moment for Sam, tak-ing his first rep wicket and he was thrilled with his work at the crease.“He was class, he was brilliant. As soon as we chucked him the ball he knew what field he wanted, there were no nerves. It was like he's played rep cricket for 15 years,” he says.

“You've probably got three spinners in front of the pecking order at the moment but it's nice to know that if we lose a spin-ner we have depth and we wouldn't think twice about playing Sammy.”After bowling the visitors out, Ryan says he was happy with how the game was pro-gressing but then a horror hour struck, just before the end of the day's play.“We knew it was an important hour, we spoke about it but we weren't quite up to scratch with the bat.”He says to lose four wickets before the end of play was disappointing and that put Nelson on the back foot heading into the second day of play on Sunday.Nelson was bowled out for just 166 with Ricky Edwards top scoring with 45.Ryan says despite the loss it was good to get a game under their belts.“We don't play a lot of two day competi-tive cricket as a unit. I guess if you want to have a batting collapse you want to do it when there are no Hawke Cup points up for grabs. You never want to do it but the one shining light was that we didn't lose any Hawke Cup points. Hopefully we can address our issues and move forward.”The next competitive game for Nelson is against Buller in the Hawke Cup at Saxton Oval on January 11 and 12 before games against Marlborough and Canterbury Country.

The Port Nelson Summer Sea Swim series continues to ride a wave of popularity with a record 174 swimmers taking the plunge on the opening night of the series last Thursday.That's a big increase on the hand-ful of swimmers that lined up in the series when it started 25 years ago and one of the organisers Dick Bennison says he's not surprised at the growth. Sea swimming is becoming increasingly popular all around the country and Dick says the Port Nelson series is no excep-tion. "It started as a small group of tri-athletes getting together for a swim and when I joined up 15 years ago we only had about 30 swimmers. It's been growing steadily over the last three or four years and now we are up to 170 and we're still getting registrations coming in."Dick says there are a number of reasons for the popularity of sea swimming nationally including the fact that it is gaining a higher profile in the media and is the per-fect low-impact sport for ageing athletes. The Port Nelson series has also benefited from the decisions to aim the series at swimmers of all abilities with a long and short course option and make it more user friendly by starting the swim-mers in three waves to minimise the washing machine effect."A lot of people were telling us that they found the starts intimi-dating and so we decided to start the races in three waves to make it a friendlier environment. Now people see it as a very achievable event." Dick says the Nelson Triathlon and Multisport Club which runs the series is also fortunate to have a good sponsor in Port Nelson and a harbour with benign sea condi-

tions. The harbour is also highly visible to the public which helps raise the profile of the series and attract new swimmers.However, the growth has present-ed the organisers with a number of challenges including getting enough safety boats to keep an eye on swimmers and volunteers to manage the registration and tim-ing. Dick says the Nelson Surf Life Saving Club and Nelson Kayak Club have been doing a fantastic job of providing safety craft while a team of volunteers ensure starts and timing goes smoothly."The safety plan is crucial to the swims and we take it very seri-ously. We have the Nelson Surf Life Saving Club's inflatable rescue boat manned by three crew and six kayakers from the kayak club as well as a trained on-shore resus-citator." For the record, Fraser Neill was the fastest male over the long course completing the 650 metres in 7 minutes 38 seconds with Amy Coulton the fastest female in 8min 28 sec. Although the teenagers set the pace last Thursday there is still a big contingent of super-fast mas-ters with Kerry Mathison (9min 30sec) and Simon Kneebone (8min 18sec) the quickest of the 40-something swimmers. Ireland Steenbergen was the fast-est swimmer over the short course finishing in 4min 46sec. Mandy Medcalf-Stephens was second in 4min 49sec.The series is held at the Nelson Yacht Club every Thursday at 6.15pm over the summer. There will also be the four-race Clements Endurance a long distance series starting on December 1.

The latest in combat fun has arrived in Nelson in time for summer.ProKarts in Tahuna has brought Pro Combat Laser Tag to its business in the hope of at-tracting fans of combat games that won't have to worry about the mess and bruises from paintball.Pro Combat Laser Tag owner Nick Fowler says he first came across the idea when trying to find ways to expand his busi-ness and laser tag fitted the bill because of its popularity over-seas and because he can run it right next to his go-kart track. "I didn't want to do an indoor version. I wanted to be able to do something here at the ProKarts site. I saw a few out-doors ones and thought that could work and just started re-

searching it from there."The laser tag will be run on the council-owned reserve oppo-site the skating rink and will also be able to be used at school fairs and galas."The good thing with laser tag

is that the ground doesn't get ripped up or anything, whereas with paintball you're spraying paint everywhere and making a mess."To find out more visit www.prokarts.co.nz

Rev up your Summer

A one, two finish has seen the Nelson Tigers cruise past the Canterbury Glen Eagles in a rela-tively tame superstock teams race on Saturday night.Shane Harwood took the checkered flag with usual blocker Blair Cunningham making the most of a rare running role to finish second place ahead of Canterbury’s Malcolm Ngatai.The race plan saw two drivers, Shane and Blair, drag the Canterbury drivers through the 12 laps while Dale Ewers and Jared Gray were given the blocking duties. Malcolm was the quickest driv-er out of the starting blocks, but was eventually mown down by the Tigers duo after just three laps. “It was pretty easy in the end. It all went to plan,” says team selector Wayne Martin. “The Christchurch car was winning but we knew if we just sat behind him that our blockers would sort him out. Shane and Blair then ran through after about the third lap.”Blair’s running role may have caught the Glen Eagles by surprise, as he’s generally a blocker. Wayne says that decision was made to compen-

sate for the heavy workload, with three races in three weeks, and to keep the opposition guess-ing. “Blair’s car is on the pace in his tank so we have no problems with them racing. We just pin your ears back and go.”While the win means Nelson holds onto the Mc-Call Trophy for another year, Wayne says the focus now turns to Palmerston North for this weekend’s annual Challenge Cup clash with the Panthers. “It’ll get a bit tougher against Palmy. It’s good for us to get up there and race them be-fore the Teams Champs later in the year. Espe-cially if we’re taking [new driver] Ben Taylor up.”Ben was the unused driver on the weekend, and if even if stands down again on Saturday, Wayne says it will be a good experience for him travel-ling with the team and racing in the cash races.Last year Nelson lost the Challenge Cup to Palm-erston North here at the Tahuna Beach Holiday Park Speedway. Two of the drivers were put in the back of a St John ambulance, including Car-ey Harwood who has not returned to the track since.

Tigers roar in openerThe last couple of weeks have pro-duced some stunning fishing days and the Saturday just gone was proof with a temperature in the mid 20’s. Because of the lovely warm weather and little rain, the water temperature has also shot up accordingly and is near enough to that magical snapper figure of 18 degrees. The first snapper will be starting to spawn and from now on they will tend to be a bit more tentative in their feeding habits. This will mean a slight change of tactics may be required to entice the snapper on the bite. Smaller baits will probably work in your favour on flasher rigs with smaller hooks when fishing on the rods. The setline will still be a good option as a backup using small squid baits. The snapper this season seem to be generally larger than last season averaging around the 35-45cm and are absolutely the perfect size for the dinner table. Al-though there have been reports of plenty of fish over 10kg and some closer to 15kg. These big fish can strike any time and you need to make sure your rod, reel, nylon and tackle are up for the challenge. Last weekend on our boat, we dropped the setline in 20 metres of water. We stray lined a pilchard from the back of the boat as we drifted away from the setline and landed a 6kg snapper within 5 min-utes of fishing. Several other big fish

hit this same rig within 5 minutes of each other but dropped the bait af-ter feeling the weight come on and that was it for the next 2 hours as the tide changed. Some smaller fish did come back on the bite and were landed on the rods.The carpet sharks are still in abun-dance, but so are the large schools of 2 kilo plus kahawai. Last week the large school of kahawai and associated birdlife that have been seen outside the cut by boaties over the last few weeks, came in close to Fifeshire Rock and Rocks Road. This activity saw land based an-glers flocking down to get amongst the action. Heaps of kahawai were caught and it was great to see all the kids out their enjoying the occasion with the bigger kids as well.With all the kahawai around the kingfish will be following closely behind. The Boulder Bank and the spat farm must be due to go off very soon. Kenepuru has still been a bit patchy with a 10kg fish taken recently, but the 7 gillers are still there to make life a bit harder. The weather is predicted to be reason-ably good during the week and into the following week, so get all the chores done asap. The fishing will only get better leading up to Christ-mas so get out there while you can. As always, come and see us at the Dawnbreakers Fishing club for all the latest news on what’s working and where the action is.

Entries needed for charity golf tournamentAfter 29 years and $330,000, the re-gion’s most successful charity golf tournament is ready to celebrate its 30th in style.The Nelson Host Lions South Pine Charity Golf Tournament is held over two days on November 23 and 24 and will see players play the first day at the Nelson Golf Club and the second at Greenacres Golf Course in Richmond.Each year the tournament attracts golfers from all over the region, in-cluding some of the very best and some of the very social. South Pine’s Jud Hadfield says the tournament is popular because of the great prizes, its uniqueness in

playing over two courses and that it’s a great community event.There are prizes for overall net (max 24 handicap) and then prizes for net, gross and stableford for overall, Grade A, Grade B and ladies. There is also a social prize and lots of nov-elty prizes.This year money raised from the tournament will be going to help renovate a cottage at the hospital that will be used by mothers whose babies need hospital care.To enter into the tournament or for more information call Jud on 547 9629 or 021 449 352. Payment can be made on the day and is $50 for the two days.

Nelson and the host club, Mo-tueka. The Maitahi club secured several first placings in various

events and several third plac-ings as well. The club's presi-

If you missed out last time, get ready for a weekend of swinging and grooving with The FlamingMudcats.The Auckland band are set to bring their special blend of blues and funk back to Nelson for what they “guarantee to be an exhilarating weekend of blues.”They will perform at the Boathouse in Nelson on Friday 22 November and The Mussel Inn in Onekaka, Golden Bay on Saturday 23 No-vember. Bassist Sean McCarthy says they are excited to be back in Nelson. “There wasn’t much blues to be heard when I lived in Nelson a few years back in the mid 90s, but it’s great to see local bands like Boogie Train down here perform-ing well and taking it to the people.”The Flaming Mudcats performed to an enthusiastic crowd at the 2011 Nelson Jazz and BluesFestival, and at The Playhouse in 2012.The band will be playing tunes from

their debut album ‘Gave You What You Wanted’, and will also perform new work from their upcoming al-bum which is due for release early in 2014.After a whirlwind tour of the USA, where they played in Chicago and opened the inaugural ‘Field of Blues Festival’ in Rockford, Illinois, the band earned rave reviews with a recent write up on muzic.net.nz dubbing the band “up there with some of the late greats of 1950’s American Blues” and are self-described as “equally at home in down-home shuffles, New Orleans funk, spacious minor blues, west coast swing, pounding four-on-the-floor and rollicking Texas shuf-fles”.The Flaming Mudcats are giving away four tickets to their show and have CDs up for grabs to readers of the Nelson Weekly and Waimea Weekly.
