Twin golds to College band

By Dean TaylorTe Awamutu College Concert

Band has once again proved it is on top of the music world by earning two Gold Awards at this year’s New Zealand Concert Bands Festival.

Playing in both the Festival Per-formance and Entertainment Per-formance categories, Te Awamutu College Concert Band was the only school band to win Gold Awards for both performances. The festival is held over two weeks at a South Island and North Island venue and involves school and community based concert bands.

The North Island Festival was held over three days in Napier, utilising three venues including their premier theatre, the historic and recently refurbished Munici-

pal Theatre.Te Awamutu College Concert

Band performed both programmes at this theatre.

Adjudicators are looking at tone, tuning, balance, dynamics, accura-cy, style, articulation and phrasing.

Te Awamutu played for Univer-sity of Notre Dame Professor of Music Dr Kenneth Dye.

While the performance is judged individually, Te Awamutu College was in the same section as such schools as King’s College, New Plymouth Boys and Girls High, St John’s and Sacred Heart, St Peter’s College and Birkenhead College.

For their entertainment pro-gramme Te Awamutu College performed ‘A Selection from Cats’, ‘Root Beer Rag’ and ‘Andrew Lloyd Webber: A Concert Celebration”.

Dr Dye considered it highly en-tertaining overall, commenting on the band’s effective concert attire and preparation.

He enjoyed the use of the four piece brass ‘choir’ and the ‘showy’ tap sequence by percussionist and dancer Ian Vincent in the fi nal number.

For their festival programme the band performed ‘Crown Imperial’, ‘Ritual Fire Dance’ and ‘Among The Clouds’.

Dr Dye again commented on the wonderful concert attire, stage presence and stage manners and thought the band had good blend and balance.

He also gave constructive advice on how each piece could be im-proved even more.

Te Awamutu College head of

music George Brooks was elated for his team in earning two Gold Awards.

He says while the praise is valu-able, the constructive advice from someone as respected as Dr Dye is especially valuable as it helps give the band direction for the future.

Mr Brooks says much of the credit has to go to band co-conduc-tor Bob Hollinshead and tutors Barry Cullen, Stewart Stanbridge and Catherine Orbell, all the par-ent helpers, as well as the students who put in a great effort to prepare for the event and were so responsi-ble at Napier.

He says the large group of stu-dents were away together for four days and demonstrated maturity and independence for the entire trip.

The New Zealand Historic Places Trust sur-prised Waipa District Mayor Alan Livingston, councillors and staff by awarding a Certifi cate of Merit at their Northern Region event in Cam-bridge.

Waikato branch chairperson Heather Garrett says while it is an unusual award to be made to a local body, local members were fully supportive of the nomination.

She says the reason for the award was Waipa District Council’s commendable leadership in work to preserve the heritage of Waipa and contri-butions to fostering public interest in its heritage.

Waipa District Council has or is involved in a number of heritage activities, including formation of the Heritage Council, Temple Cottage, Kihikihi Police house and cells, Pirongia Historic Visitors Centre, Climax Locomotive restoration, Cam-bridge Town Hall and CBD upgrade, Te Awamutu

and Cambridge Museums, Lake Ngaroto, Lake Te Ko Utu, Yarndley’s Bush, the MEIT project, Orakau Battle site, heritage trails, Alexandra East Redoubt and Matakitaki Pa .

Council has developed a heritage policy and im-plementation strategy and taken on a number of new projects at Selwyn/Morgan Park, reactivation and preservation of Cambridge’s town clock, add-ing new archaeological sites to the district plan, fi re protection for St John’s and St Paul’s, listing protected trees, identifying pre-1900 historic sites, establishment of heritage awards and maintain-ing various historic buildings and structures.

Council has also provided facilities to the branch and secretarial services to the Heritage Council.

In making the award the Historic Places Trust specifi cally commented on the unstinting dedica-tion of Mayor Livingston and new WDC heritage manager Andrew McFarlane.

Kudos for Council’s heritage work Online Courier one year old

Te Awamutu Courier celebrates its fi rst year as an online paper tomorrow.

Our fi rst edition of low reso-lution pdf fi les was posted on Thursday, August 19, 2004 on the www.teawamutu.co.nz website.

The paper can be viewed online or downloaded, and it has proved a hit according to feedback, which has included many emails from over-seas readers (often Te Awamutu ‘expats’).

Site owner Dave Owens says hav-ing the news on his site has been a bonus, bringing lots of new regulars to the web page.

YOUR LETTERS

The Policy Committee of Waipa Dis-trict Council has voted to send a recom-mendation to the DoC conservator that the reserve status of Anzac Green be revoked.

This does not surprise me, but I con-tinue to be aggrieved by the bumbling process allowed in this case by the com-mittee chairman and blindly followed by our elected representatives.

To sit through a meeting where a member, invited correctly to give an op-posing view says “I don’t want to speak for or against but...” and then drones on for 10 minutes uninterrupted is an-noying and wastes everybody’s time; to have to watch $5,000 being promised of our money, on a non agenda item, con-trary to council Standing Orders - and therefore out of order - aggravates me.

When I see a committee being so dis-respectful to the public that they need the chief executive to laboriously read out summary and comments to public objections so that they can form an opinion, then I just get disheartened.

The process by which decisions are made in Waipa is a disgrace.

STEPHEN LEE

Decision making ‘debatable’

Accentuating positiveWhy don’t we start recognising the

positive input of our community instead of constantly voicing complaints through this column?

For example (in last week’s Couriers), Sam Christopher, Teresa Derbyshire and Brendon Liley (Waipa District Youth Art and Culture Award recipients), Te Awamutu Volunteer Fire Brigade (10 call outs last week), the team of young entrepreneurs behind the ‘Smuffy’ dice, Kiwanis Club (supplying such thoughtful items for parents in the Waikato Hospital children’s ward), numerous achievements from all sports (badminton, netball, golf, darts, rugby, soccer), and all the new ar-rivals to the families of the area.

What kind of example are we all set-ting to them?

Let’s all try to hold our heads high and show each other we are proud of this community, and the many talented peo-ple who represent Te Awamutu.

A smile costs nothing, yet it could change someone’s day.

K. STUART

I agree with Mano Manoharan’s let-ter in the Courier last week.

The Waipa District Council have showed they are happy to waste our rates by their $26,000 spending spree to Christchurch.

My rates for the small retirement unit I live in have increased from

$1440.36 in 2004/05 to $1516.59 for 2005/06.

According to the article in last Tuesday’s Courier about projects be-ing prioritised, this Council intends to continue to ‘hoop it up’ at the ratepay-ers’ expense.

Sunday, 10.27am. Private fi re alarm, Roche Street. 8.54pm. Car fi re, Pokuru Road.

Rates limit reached alreadyI have just received a rates bill for

$1600-plus, with a regional rates bill imminent.

So when reading about the top six projects chosen from a consultant’s as-sessment of the district’s needs, it was some comfort to read that the Mayor acknowledged that Council only has a limited amount of money to spend.

I am of the opinion that with a rates bill of $1600 for an ordinary residence

in town, the limit of spending was reached some time ago.

Projects such as those suggested are very attractive, particularly when the proponents do not have to pay for them.

Progress is desirable, but when it comes at the cost of forcing out resi-dents who can no longer afford to live here, what is the point?

By Grant JohnstonWomen’s Institute may be perceived as being

mainly about knitting, tea and scones - but they are closer to the cutting edge than most people realise.

In fact, in these days when people are more likely to communicate via cellphones or comput-ers, the Women’s Institute has become a unifi ed and champion voice of ‘ordinary Kiwis’.

A number of King Country Federation of WI members recently attended their national body’s annual meeting in Dunedin, including president Beryl Lukey and national executive member, Ai-leen Berrigan.

Just how ‘close to the action’ WI is has been il-lustrated in recent years by the fact remits at the AGM have been overtaken by political changes happening at the same time to bring about the desired results.

This happened this year when the Govern-ment announced increases in rest home subsidies at the same time WI members were calling for something to be done about meagre pay rates for rest home workers.

Other remits put to this year’s AGM called for harsher penalties for violent criminals and for something to be done to regulate the sale of ‘party pills’ - setting a minimum age for purchase of 18.

The remit was also withdrawn when it was an-nounced that Jim Anderton has passed a Private Members Bill to this very effect.

But a submission has still been made to Parlia-

ment to do something about regulating outlets.Guidelines for retailers along the lines of ‘host

responsibility’ (alcohol) were requested.“They are packaged like lollies and sit on the

counter alongside the lollies in our dairies,” says Mrs Berrigan.

WI members at the AGM were defi nitely close to ‘cutting edge technology’ when they heard from Noela Vallis, Spinal Cord Society president, about the work going on at the spinal cord research unit in Dunedin.

Rated an inspirational speaker by the King Country contingent, Mrs Vallis told members about successful stem cell growth research, with human trials for cure of paralysis now being con-sidered by the Ethics Committee.

It is a world-leading project that could contrib-ute to cures for a range of diseases, including Par-kinson’s, Alzheimers and Motor Neuron Disease.

“We learned that any money raised for this re-search will go straight to that research - nothing is wasted along the way,” Mrs Lukey says.

“It is very impressive that this is happening in New Zealand, for New Zealanders,” Mrs Berrigan says.

Last year WI voted to donated $15,000 towards spinal cord research. This year, after Mrs Vallis’ inspiring speech each of the 52 federation presi-dents pledged to stage a special project to raise extra funds.

It is a cause that sits comfortably with Women’s Institute’s motto ‘For home and country’.

Not many weeks are left in the current term of the Labour led Gov-ernment and Jack Mockford has lost hope that a promise by the Minister of Health, Annette King will be met.

Mr Mockford, who farms at Pua-hue, is one of 200 haemophiliacs infected by hepatitis C through ‘bad blood’ in 1987.

He says he has suffered through the infection, but nowhere near as badly as some.

In a letter to Prime Minister Helen Clark last month he wrote: “I took the word of your Minister of Health

that it would be settled during this present term of Government, as in-deed most other governments over-seas have long since done.

“It appears this hasn’t been the case, and I appeal to your ‘promise to deliver’ and the pledge of your Government to do so, even if only on moral grounds.”

Mr Mockford undertook to keep the issue to himself until he received a response, but all he has received so far is a letter from the PM’s sec-retary acknowledging receipt of his letter.

Bad blood still exists over botch up

The Kihikihi School chess club was only started in June by principal, Graeme Miller, so he was thrilled with the team’s re-cent performance in the Central North Island Chess Champion-ships held at Southwell School in Hamilton.

Kihikihi School fi nished fourth in the tournament, just half a point behind the third placed team, Tamahere School, with Southwell School picking up fi rst and second spot.

Mr Miller says this is the fi rst time Kihikihi has competed in the tournament and the result is a great encouragement

“Some of our students had only been playing chess for a short time, one for just four weeks, in contrast to some players in other teams who have been playing for four years.”

He says the shining star for Kihikihi was Gabrielle Swift who won four of her fi ve games in-

cluding a victory over the fourth ranked player in the number one Southwell team.

Children in each team were

ranked from one to four and played four or fi ve games against children with the same ranking in the other teams.

Karam-Whalleys in sharp form

The Karam-Whalley family have been to the fore in re-cent hairdressing competitions in the Hawke’s Bay and Bay of Plenty and look set to be a force in the Waikato Regional Awards later this month.

Top result came from Aaron with a win in the Oceanic Masters Award in the Hawke’s Bay competition, which gives him automatic entry into the Oceanic Competition in Australia.

He will compete against the best from Asia and the Pa-cifi c in Sydney during October.

Aaron also picked up a second in Creative Men’s Cut (Hawke’s Bay), a third in Urban Day Hair (Bay of Plenty) and a fourth in Directional Ladies Cut (Bay of Plenty).

His mother Lynnette narrowly missed qualifying for the Oceanic competition, fi nishing second in the Oceanic Mas-ter Award at the Bay of Plenty competition. She also picked up a third placing there in Creative Men’s Fashion Cut.

Seamus Karam-Whalley picked up two second placings - in Creative Men’s Cut (Bay of Plenty) and Directional Men’s Cut (Hawke’s Bay).

Fellow Team 7 stylist Shannon Wilson was placed fourth in the Oceanic Master Award.

Bridge tournament draws players

Te Awamutu Bridge Club’s Intermediate Restricted Tournament attracted 72 players from the Waikato-Bays area.

In the morning session, local players Crean Kabel and Marieanne Quin claimed fi rst equal North/South, with Alix Haywood and Ruth Holden taking third place East/West.

In the afternoon session Alix Haywood and Ruth Holden improved their game to take second North/South and third place in the tournament overall.

College 1st XV rock and rollA case of third time lucky against Church College for Paerata and his team

By Colin ThorsenTe Awamutu College 1st XV rugby team extend-

ed their unbeaten run to eight games winning the Waikato secondary schools’ division two champion-ship.

Playing with commendable structure, aggression and self belief, Te Awamutu beat the Church Col-lege 2nd XV 18-10 on their home turf in Saturday’s fi nal.

New Zealand Tall Blacks basketball coach Tab Baldwin would have been proud of them.

The well-coached Singleton & Hansen sponsored 1st XV played with a lot of the qualities that Bald-win has installed in his successful side.

Baldwin was quoted earlier this week: “Some-times it is not always the worst thing to lose to an opponent before you play them again in a big game.”

It certainly rang true with the 1st XV. They won the game that mattered most against

Church College after losing 21-0 and drawing 11-all in their two previous clashes this season.

It was patently obvious to all who were watch-ing, that the 15 young men, plus reserves, of the Te Awamutu 1st XV were on a mission.

After a spirited haka performed before kickoff, they drove into their opponents with tenacity and passion to lead 13-0 after 20 minutes.

Church College were clearly outmuscled at this stage by a team that they had always thought that they had the measure of.

Mike Stinson, a Church College old boy, has watched all three encounters between these two teams this season.

He admired the way in which Te Awamutu lifted their game to fi nally win the ultimate prize - the right to call themselves champions.

Stinson says they showed what true teamwork can achieve. Their win was proof to the adage that ‘a champion team will always beat a team full of champions’.

“Even though I’m a Church College old boy, I can-not deny that the committed Te Awamutu 1st XV are worthy champions and good ambassadors of their college and the game of rugby,” says Stinson.

Captain Josh Paerata was proud of the boys.“We had a number of young players making their

1st XV debuts this season after playing under-15 footy last year. It’s a big step up.

“We had a rough start to the season, while they found their feet, but they have all come of age.”

The captain/blindside fl anker was wearing the

1st XV jersey for the last time, along with second fi ve Pearson Tukua, lock Kirk Davidson, centre Shannon Heke, openside Jason Parker, prop Luke Edwards and halfback Daniel Hawker.

“It’s a great way to go out,” says Paerata.“Our coaches (Bruce Bain, Jack Tukua) and man-

ager (Murray Bain) have done an awesome job to turn our season around, and our supporters have been second to none.”

The silverware is fi tting reward for the two coaches who are fashioning a fi ne record together. The under-16 side of 2003 made the semi-fi nals and their 2nd XV were beaten fi nalists last year.

“We’re so proud of all the boys and what they’ve achieved this season,” says Bruce Bain.

“It’s just reward for all concerned, particularly

the senior members who have tried so hard, for so long.”

Co-coach Jack Tukua says he found it very grati-fying coming through with the 2nd XV last year and 1st XV this year to winning a fi nal and seeing progress within the boys throughout this period.”

Te Awamutu’s points came from tries to winger Prez Mapiu and lock John Pollock, and two penal-ties and a conversion to fullback Taina Heke, who looked like a young Andy Baker in the making with his prodigious punting and allround skills.

It was not the only gold for the Te Awamutu College 1st XV on the day. Ryan Taylor, the team’s regular winger, who had prior College band com-mitments, collected two golds at the New Zealand Concert Bands North Island Festival in Napier.

Public invited to hear the Environment Commissioner

Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment Dr Mor-gan Williams will be hosted by Te Awamutu College on Friday week, with the opportunity for the public to also meet and hear him.

Dr Williams will speak at 9am on Friday, August 26 in the school hall. He is in the school for two hours, so there is also a chance for a question and an-swer section.

Agricultural teacher Steve Hart made the invitation af-ter meeting Dr Williams at a seminar and workshop on the release of the latest report from the commissioner’s offi ce.

Dr Williams was one of the authors of ‘Growing For Good - Intensive farming, sustain-ability and New Zealand’s en-vironment’.

Mr Hart says the report

signals some important and radical steps for New Zealand agriculture if it is taken seri-

ously, and he believes there is a chance for Te Awamutu College to be involved.

He also believes there would be many school parents and other adults in this agricultural district who would like the op-portunity to discuss matters with Dr Williams.

Mr Hart says the future of farming in New Zealand begins at schools, so he would be keen to discuss a relationship be-tween Te Awamutu College and the commisioner’s offi ce.

He says the school could be-come a testing ground for con-cepts identifi ed by the commis-sioner, which would be good for the school and the community

Mr Hart says there is some good material in the report, but how serious the Government is about making changes will be seen in the future.

There were 3006 enquir-ies over the past year to Te Awamutu Citizen Advice Bu-reau - down on last year’s 3476.

The conclusion at the organi-sation’s AGM last week was that this is probably the result of the new location in Bank Street, which is a little further from main foot traffi c, although there is ample parking.

The meeting saw 18 members of the 26 CAB volunteers in at-tendance, along with fi ve guests. It was Te Awamutu CAB’s 23rd annual meeting.

Gratitude was expressed to Waipa District Council for their share of fi nancial support, and also to Waikato Community Trust, COGS, Lotteries Board and Trillian Trust.

Donations from the RSA, Pa-keke Lions, Rural Women, Busi-ness and Professional Women,

Zipper Club and others were gratefully received. Recently a $3,500 grant was received from the Lottery Board.

A vote of thanks was recorded to the local supporting law-yers, who give their time and expertise to the Bureau twice a month to provide a free legal service for customers in need.

This is held every second Thursday, with 10 minute ap-pointments between 1 and 2 pm. This is usually fully booked and an appointment needs to be made through the Bureau.

With the help of funding the Bureau was able to buy two new computers, necessary to collate the huge amount of in-formation held.

Local as well as national information can be obtained by phoning 871 4111 or by calling in at the offi ce at 321

Bank Street between 9am and 3.30pm.

Guest speaker was Detective Andy Bubear from Hamilton CIB.

He gave a presentation on a crime scene examination of a homicide case he and his team had investigated and solved about fi ve years ago.

There was absolute silence as he spoke and screened a de-tailed slide show, everyone was quite impressed to see and hear about modern crime solving methods.

A new management commit-tee was elected at the AGM:

Chairperson: Morna Kerr; vice chairperson: Colleen Rankin; secretary/treasurer: Peter Roberts; committee members: Margaret Kinmont, Ra Potaka, Jenny Hall, Leslie Gambrill and Joy Osborne.

CAB ready, able to serve public

Te Awamutu’s Al-trusa Club has won several district awards, but can now celebrate its fi rst major success at international level.

The club was recently announced runners-up in the Altrusa Interna-tional Relations Award in front of 450 del-egates at the Altrusa International Conven-tion in Puerto Rico.

The Dr Nina Fay Calhoun International Relations Award was won by Te Awamutu at a district level, for its work with service projects such as sup-porting the Hagar home for Cambodian girls who are rescued from the sex industry.

The home is run by two Te Awamutu wom-en, Sue Hanna and Sue Taylor.

The district success meant the club quali-fi ed for the interna-tional competition.

Te Awamutu Altrusa Club member Leanne Milligan was in Puerto Rico in her role as International Service Chair, but had no idea the club was going to be placed in the com-petitions.

“I have been to three

international conven-tions and was involved with the awards cer-emony this year, but they managed to keep Te Awamutu’s success a secret from me.”

The award was pre-sented by Linda Nicols from Texas who is now the Altrusa Interna-tional President.

“It was a very proud moment for me as we have a great club in Te Awamutu,” Miss Mil-

ligan says.The Te Awamutu

Altrusa Club was also one of 20 clubs world-wide to be presented with a distinguished club award.

“It was a great awards evening all round for New Zealand, the Tauranga Club won the international com-petition for the Letha H Brown Literacy Awards, so there was plenty of celebrating

that night.” Miss Milligan com-

pleted her trip with a visit to Te Awamutu’s sister club in Atlanta.

On her return she was able to put on her ‘district hat’ as First Vice-Governor to present the inter-national award to Te Awamutu Past Presi-dent Marie Kay and Community Committee Chair Sharon Turney at the club meeting.

Sculpture sold to museumA korowai, or Maori cloak, by Te Awamutu sculp-

tor Rhonda Bird is the latest purchase for the Trust Waikato Collection at the Museum of Art and His-tory.

Trust Waikato’s art consultant, Stuart Stubbs, de-scribes the sculpture as ‘stunning’. It incorporates over 400 individually crafted ceramic feathers.

It was among Trust Waikato’s latest blend of can-vas, sculpture and photographic imagery welcomed to the Museum of Art and History with a powhiri last Friday.

The growing Trust Waikato Collection now incor-porates over 80 pieces of art - carefully selected for their signifi cance to the Waikato region.

The Trusts’ aim is to preserve part of the artistic fabric that has woven, and continues to weave the art history of the Waikato.

Infl uential regional artists along with works de-picting images of the Waikato are priorities for the Trust’s $90,000 acquisition budget.

Other recent taonga include an expansive painting of the Coromandel mountain range by Tim Wilson, a contemporary work by local Raglan artist Deborah Duffi eld, a Frances Ellis work entitled Landscape with Cathedral (Hamilton), an Ida Carey depiction of kuia at Turangawaewae, an historical poster of the Ngaruawahia regatta, photographs of young Maori women by IIes Photographers of Thames, an oil on board painting entitled ‘The Leading Violinist’ by Garth Tapper, and ‘At Work in the Poultry Shed’, a painting by Vida Steinert.

Red Cross after new blood

Te Awamutu Branch of Red Cross needs new blood.

Not for transfusions for victims, but to ensure the ongoing health of the organisation.

The loss of fi ve active members over the past year has reduced the number of active members to 84, supported by 73 fi nancial members.

Local secretary/treasurer Betty McDonald says recruitment of young members is a problem na-tionally for the Red Cross movement.

The branch farewelled Betty Riddle, a member of the executive and clothing convenor for many of the 20 plus years of service she gave to the or-ganisation. She has moved to Pukekohe.

Te Awamutu branch supported the regional book fair in Hamilton, which raised over $45,000.

There was generous public support through the donation of books

There was also great support for the annual ap-peal, which raised $2758. Garage sales through-out the year raised $1628 and the World Red Cross day celebration raised $200.

Donations were sent for the fl ood appeals in Manawatu and Bay of Plenty and also the tragic tsunami appeal.

“Our big social event this year was celebrating our 65th birthday - 57 members attended a very successful and happy luncheon at Whitby Farm Restaurant,” Mrs McDonald says.

“It was good to see quite a number of members who had been at our 50th and 60th celebrations,” she says.

At the meeting the following offi cers were elect-ed for 2005/06: patron: Joan Miller; secretary/treasurer: Betty McDonald; executive: Mary Ward, Avis Peterson, Joan Lee, Amy Gordon, Maude Trotter, Billie Davies.

Funding boost for road projects welcomed

Regional Land Transport Committee chairman, Angus Macdonald, told the Courier he welcomes the announcement of the funding boost for key roading projects in the Waikato region.

“Following the Bay of Plenty’s success in gain-ing extra funding, Waikato representatives have been working hard on pushing for the additional resources that are needed to address the major problems facing the Waikato,” he says.

“We are delighted to see that Transit have now signifi cantly advanced the completion dates for major projects, such as the Te Rapa by-pass, and the Ngaruawahia by-pass.”

However Mr Macdonald cautions that the Waikato Expressway is something that needs to be addressed in its entirety, if it is to produce the maximum effi ciency gains.

“The Waikato Expressway is a like a large jig-saw puzzle that must all fi t together for it to work properly.

“By doing it piece-by-piece, there is a potential for failing to maximise the effi ciency and eco-nomic gains,” he says.

“I am concerned that Transit’s announcement, which does not include funding for the Hamilton by-pass in the same timeframe as Ngaruawahia and Te Rapa, means that the jig-saw puzzle will not be complete.

“The Regional Land Transport Committee will need to monitor this process to ensure that the traffi c problems in the Waikato are fully ad-dressed, such as pushing for the Rangiriri and Cambridge by-passes.”230TC016-05

Mini ‘bash’ heading to town next month The Variety Weekend Rally

hits town in September – and anyone can join the fun.

A weird and wonderful collec-tion of vehicles and a madcap bunch of people will be spread-ing their unique brand of sun-shine to kids throughout South Auckland, the Waikato and King Country on The Variety Bash King Country Gumboot Weekend Rally.

The Variety Weekend Rally is the smaller version of the Varie-ty Bash, New Zealand’s largest, craziest, colourful, fun loving and big hearted fundraising event for Kiwi children.

What makes it special is that anyone can enter any type of vehicle, and join the crazy road-trip for free.

Bash director Jill Glazewski says that the Variety Weekend Rally is a great opportunity for anyone to experience the thrill and excitement of this iconic kiwi event.

“The Variety Weekend Rally is a great chance for people who enjoy cars and having fun to get out and experience something totally different,” said Glazews-ki. “It costs nothing to enter a vehicle, and you can enter any-thing from a 1960’s fi re engine to the latest Ford Falcon V8.

“The event is structured just like an offi cial motorsport rally, with comprehensive route notes and way points. The only differ-ence is that the ‘Bashers’ don’t know where they are going and there are plenty of fun-fi lled

surprises.”There is a per person Mini

Bash activity fee which covers administration and evening entertainment costs. It does not cover accommodation costs.

On Friday, September 16 the rally starts with breakfast at Rainbows End Fun Park at 7.15am before heading south towards the King Country via Te Awamutu, overnighting in Waitomo.

On September 18 the rally will visit Kawhia for a late morning tea, then onto Raglan.

Variety grants will be distrib-uted along the route.

For more information on par-ticipating in the 2005 Variety Mini Bash, call Jill Glazewski or Anna Gorman on 09 520 4111.


Staggering win for Stewart Alexander

TOAST OF CLUB: Stewart Alexander’s champion weekend pennant team after sealing their victory at the weekend. From left, Pam Thomson, Wendy Heta, Ani Bahler, Tema Tapu. Photo supplied

By Colin ThorsenStewart Alexander have re-

written the record books with a massive win in the Waikato women’s weekend pennant golf competition.

The four-strong team of Ani Bahler, Wendy Heta, Tema Tapu and Pam Thomson fi nished 47 points ahead of second placed Waitomo after the third and fi -nal round at Stewart Alexander on Sunday.

They won the fi nal round with a score of 217 net, 11 shots ahead of Walton, who headed Lochiel by one.

By winning the fi nal round, Stewart Alexander completed a notable three-sweep.

Golf historians believe it is the fi rst time a club has won all three rounds in one season.

It was also the fi rst time in its

history Stewart Alexander had won the overall title.

Team captain Pam Thomson said it was set up for them having the last round on their home course after they had built a handsome lead winning the fi rst two rounds.

“We’re rapt. It was awesome to win in front of all our sup-porters.

“We have tremendous spirit within the club at present. There’s nothing like some suc-cess to get everyone buzzing.”

Stewart Alexander was led by Bahler, who shot 69 net for the day’s best score - well supported by Tapu’s 73 and Thomson with a 75. Heta had a non-counting 82.

Sixteen clubs entered the competition.

Te Awamutu had to settle for fi fth after blowing their chances

of a top three fi nish with a fi nal round score of 245.

Stewart Alexander women have a royal chance of fi nish-ing their best season for many years with three trophies in the cabinet.

Their latest win follows vic-tory in the Week Day Pennant in June.

Focus now turns to the Wills Cup team, who have made it through to the district fi nal at Te Awamutu course on Sep-tember 16 after winning their zone fi nal. Pirongia were the runners-up.

Top fi ve weekend pennant teams from round three at Stewart Alexan-der: Stewart Alexander 217, Walton 228, Lochiel 229, Waikare 231, Ngahinapouri 232, Ngaruawahia 233.

Final results after three rounds: Stewart Alexander 641, Waitomo 688, Ngahinapouri 693, Putaruru 704, Te Awamutu 705.

Two cyclists at opposite ends of their cycling careers fought out a sprint fi nish to Te Awamutu Sports Cycling Club’s Schwart-feger Cup race.

Veteran Manu Robson took the honours from up-and-comer, Col-lege fi fth former Callum New-lands, who was disadvantaged by riding restricted gears because of his age group.

Both the open and under-17 grade competed together, rac-ing twice around the Bell-Bird-Pirongia-Paterangi road circuit.

The break group of Robson, Newlands, Beven Gibbs and Bob Puru rode throw the entire fi eld.

In fi nishing second, Newlands won the Glass Cup as the fi rst U17 rider.

Robson is a bit of a legend on Waikato cycling scene.

He has had his share of success over many years riding the ma-jor roads tours in New Zealand, including the Tour of Wellington in which he crashed out of con-tention breaking both arms.

The versatile Robson has also represented Waikato with dis-tinction at the track nationals, winning medals.

He was part of the Te Awamutu team that won the national clubs team time trial championships two years ago.

Newlands is enjoying the best season of his fl edgling career, having previously featured prominently in the Twin Peaks road race and Tour of Taranaki.

He is looking forward to the national secondary schools’ road championships on September 23, followed by the national road championships from October 20-23 at Palmerston North.

The club’s under-15 riders raced around the Bell-Bird-Pirongia-Bowmans road circuit with the Messenger Cup at stake.

Front marker Michael McPher-son must have thought he had the cup in his hand until encoun-tering the Bowmans road hill.

The fi ve minute pair of Hay-den McCormick and Sean Fleck caught and passed McPherson and Rebecca Leijen.

McCormick won the sprint fi n-ish to take the Messenger Cup.

Third placed Sjoerd van Wag-tendonk took fastest time from fi rst time racer Tom Marshall.

Westend hat-trickRachel Westend benefi tted from excel-

lent teamwork with a hat-trick of goals in Te Awamutu women’s soccer team’s 3-0 win over Ngaruawahia.

The victory keeps them on course to win the bottom four section of Waikato fi rst division com-petition.

Westend was joint player of the day with Emma Petersen, while the return of Sarah Prowse at centre half was signifcant. She has been out of the action for the past fortnight.

Coach Graham Smith says it is good to see young players developing the necessary confi -dence to attack and score.

For the fi rst time in 10 weeks, defending premier netball champions Cogs 1 will be at full strength for tonight’s semi-fi nal against Marist Weka.

Team spokesperson, Louise Dossers reports that Cogs 1 had a ‘really good training’ Tuesday night.

“The whole spirit of the side has been lifted by the news that both Stephanie (Clark) and Kristie (Parkes) can play in the semi-fi nal.”

Clark has made a miraculous recovery after suf-fering what looked to be a serious injury when roll-ing her ankle against College Open A last week.

The physio told her she could train lightly early in the week and can play tonight.

Parkes is eagerly awaiting a return to the fray after spraining her ankle playing against Kawau Tigers three weeks ago.

Dorssers says it’s great to fi nally have a full compliment of players available and no reshuf-fl ing any more.

“We’re in pretty good shape. I I thought we showed character coming from eight down to beat the top seeds College Open A by three last week.

“But there is way no way we’re going to take Marist Weka lightly. They’re a very good side and will be exceptionally tough to beat.”

The two sides have met twice already this sea-son with honours even at one win apiece.

Marist Weka are expected to be at full strength for the 8.15pm game at ASB Bank Stadium, Te Awamutu Events Centre.

The early semi-fi nal at 6.30pm will feature last year’s beaten fi nalists Kawau Tigers and College Open A.

In last week’s games, Cogs 1 came from behind to beat College Open A 54-51.

Diane Cox reports that a large crowd of support-ers were treated to a fast paced game, with the lead changing every quarter.

Pirongia Meateaters started well against TAS Ecolab, going the fi rst break one goal ahead.

But unlike the previous week, they were unable to maintain the momentum, going down 49-34.

Georgie Smith, at GK for TAS Ecolab, read the game well and secured many intercepts and rebounds.

Kawau Tigers kept in touch with Marist Weka for the fi rst half of their game but could not main-tain the focus in the second half, losing 57-41.

Stern words at halftime from coach Tiari Gis-borne, coupled with the accurate shooting of Wendy Heta kept Marist Weka on track for a convincing win.

The last game of the night was a one-sided affair won 59-18 by Bailey Ingham Wanderers over Cogs Manz.

Injury to shooter Kathryn Hewitt, in the fi rst quarter, put an end to any hopes Cogs Manz had of keeping Bailey Ingham Wanderers in their sights.

FINGER TIP CONTROL: Te Awamutu College 4A’s Laura Sinclair in action against St Peter’s at the Waikato Secondary Schools’ tournament in Hamilton. It was a frustrating day for 4A, losing all their games by narrow margins. 2300517AD

With the release of the fi lm ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ in September, Nestlé confectionery is mak-ing dreams come true, offering fi ve lucky New Zealanders the chance of winning an incred-ible trip of a lifetime to the Nestlé chocolate factory in the UK.

Just like in the much loved ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ story, children from all over New Zealand have the chance to discover one of fi ve lucky Wonka Golden Tickets in limited edition Wonka chocolate products and be transported to chocolate heaven.

Five much sought af-ter Golden Tickets have been hidden inside randomly-selected 48g bars and 190g blocks of new Wonka Whipple Scrumptious Caramel Delight, a limited edi-tion, Scrumdiddlyump-tious bar, made from

Chocolate mud sludge with rice crisps and a gooey caramel centre smothered in creamy Wonka milk chocolate. Unwrapping a winning bar will instantly re-veal a dazzling Wonka Golden Ticket!

The race to fi nd the fi ve Golden Tickets begins as soon as spe-cially marked packs ap-pear in stores and will be followed soon after by the New Zealand release of the ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Fac-tory’, starring Johnny Depp on September 8.

Directed by Tim Bur-ton, the adaptation of

this classic Roald Dahl book, looks set to be one of the season’s block-busters, appealing to children and grown-ups still young at heart.

All fi ve Wonka Golden Ticket winners will receive a seven-day family trip, (two adults and two children under 12), to the UK, (London and York) in April 2006, where they will have exciting adventures visiting the Nestlé chocolate factory in York.

The fun doesn’t end there. There are also loads of other great prizes up for grabs

as part of this incred-ible Wonka promotion, including Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie tickets, books and of course lots of Wonka chocolate and lollies.

Look out for the new Wonka Whipple Scrumptious Caramel Delight bars in shops all around New Zea-land from today.

For more infor-mation on this magical prize visit www.goldenticket.co.nz and start dreaming of what it would be like to be in Charlie Bucket’s shoes.

Win with ‘Willy Wonka’

Te Awamutu Courier and Tracs give readers the chance to celebrate Jimmy Webb live in concert at Auckland’s Sky City Theatre on Wednesday, Sep-tember 14 by winning a copy of the new CD ‘Twi-light of the Renegades’.

Tickets for the show are available from Ticketek.Jimmy Webb, one of the truly great songwriters

popular music has produced, is playing the one-off show as part of his Australasian tour.

Performing his enviable back catalogue of ambro-sial masterpieces, Webb will play solo at the piano; an experience his devoted audiences around the world know is second to none.

Less known for his solo career, Webb’s articulate live presence and depth of delivery at the piano, while performing the original repertoire made fa-mous by others, is nothing short of breathtaking. The classic renditions may have made you smile wistfully, but the wondrous effect of Webb’s own ver-sions is incurable and terminal.

Webb’s live outing is in support of his new album ‘Twilight of the Renegades’, his fi rst solo album since 1996’s ‘Ten Easy Pieces’. The new record, made up of new songs and live classics never before recorded, houses a rich set of tunes to be cherished and replayed again and again.

Raised in Oklahoma and west Texas, Jimmy Webb launched a celebrated songwriting career while still

in his teens, his “Up, Up And Away” topping the charts for The Fifth Dimension in 1967. His lush, romantic pop songs - “MacArthur Park” for Richard Harris and “By The Time I Get To Phoenix” for Glen Campbell followed to tremendous acclaim. His songbook includes the classics “Wichita Lineman”, “Galveston”, “Didn’t We”, “The Highwayman” and “The Moon’s A Harsh Mistress.”

The list of artists who have performed or recorded his songs is a spectacular and varied one includ-ing such luminaries as Frank Sinatra, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Tony Bennett and R.E.M.

Webb has consistently impressed critics and the public while his peers have always recognised his genius, bestowing a large number of prestigious songwriting awards upon him.

In the Grammys department Webb remains the only artist to be awarded in all three categories of music, lyrics, and orchestration.

To be in to win simply put your name, address and daytime contact number on the back of a stand-ard sized envelope., address it to the ‘Jimmy Webb CD Competition’ and make sure it reaches the Te Awamutu Courier offi ce by 5pm next Tuesday.
