26 June 2012

Spending in Nelson grew more than anywhere in the country last month and retailers say they hope the good times roll into winter.Figures released by Paymark at the start of the month showed Nelson spending through eft-pos machines on the Paymark network grew 8.4 per cent in May, higher than anywhere else in New Zealand. Spending for the same month in 2010 sat at $65.4 million. It rose last year to $67.4 million and jumped to $73.1 million this year.Nationally, the annual growth was 5.8 per cent for the month with much of that spending growth in the retail building sector. Plumbing retailers had a growth of 17.7 per cent, whole-sale building stores 16.4 per cent and floor covering suppli-ers 13.8 per cent.Nelson City Council also re-

corded a big increase in the number of building consents issued, up to 116 from just 74 in May last year.Paul Whiston from Paymark says the results are better than they would normally expect.“In particular, spending is run-ning better than usual amongst merchants that have some as-sociation with the building cycle and in terms of regions, Nelson stood out.”Nelson City Council says while its building consent figures show a remarkable increase from the same time last year, there was a spike in applica-tions before March last year when the Licensed Building Practitioner scheme started.But consents are still up for the year to date and 15 new houses were built in May 2012 against 11 for the same month last

More than 400 Hampden St School students will perform this week as part of the school’s production.Close Encounters of the Kiwi Kind is an origi-nal script written by teachers at the school. The performance is about an inept crew of aliens who crash-land in New Zealand and come across the country’s various inhabitants.

Students make up the cast and there will be a choir as well as dance groups and bands. The teachers and students have been working on the production throughout the term, with parents helping with costumes and props. The matinee performance was held yesterday, with performances in the school’s hall tonight and Thursday from 6pm.

Long day for local teensA five hour endurance challenge in Nelson marked the end of the eight week CACTUS pro-gramme for two dozen local teens.Three teams battled it out through exercises in-cluding relay races on the cathedral steps and scaling the fire station tower with a hose charged with more than 500 litres of water.Hannah VanderGieffen and Axel Shadbolt won the NZ Police award for leadership, with Jessica Young and Alexandra Cohen awarded the Nel-son Aviation College’s Best Attitude and Most Improved respectively. The students say they gained fitness, confidence and motiva-tion and learned to work as part of a team over the programme. “We have a real mixture of kids in terms of abilities and atti-tudes; it’s great to see how far they’ve come,” says Gavin Mill-er of Big Brothers Big Sisters.

Proudly supported by:

year, says Chris Wood from NCC.Retailers spoken to by Nel-son Weekly say they hope the growth continues through win-ter but many said they haven’t

noticed an increase and it is still “tough trading” for them.Mayor Aldo Miccio says the spending increase is great news for the city. “It’s fantastic, some I think is positive fallout from Christchurch and the fact that we have some quite strong ro-

bust economic drivers. We are in a good position but we still can’t be complacent, we need to keep going.”Aldo also believed a lot of do-mestic tourists are coming to Nelson because of the exposure from the Rugby World Cup.

The Vic to get an earthquake upgrade

Another iconic Nelson building has been deemed an earthquake risk and will un-dergo an upgrade next month.The Vic Brewbar will be closed for around two weeks in late July and will be disrupted over a two month period in total because of the renovations, although it will be able to open at nights during that time.General manager of The Vic Brewbar, Phil Williams, says there is never an ideal time to put up with the disruption but he is hap-py with the efforts the landlords have made to accommodate them.The Vic is the latest in several buildings around Nelson that have been closed awaiting a decision on whether they will be strengthened. Phil says The Vic will use the opportunity to make some cosmetic upgrades in the bar at the same time. “We’ll upgrade a few things and make it a bit nicer but generally the bar will be the same layout as it is now.”Work on the building is due to start on July 1 and finish August 23.

GOOD TIMES: Owners of the Nelson Weekly celebrate its rise in circulation, along with its sister paper Waimea Weekly. They are from left; Sarah and Andrew Board, Steve Page and Jenny Bates. Photo: Rosie Thomsen.

Your locally owned community newspaper has bucked the trend of newspapers world-wide as its circulation continues to rise, this month smashing past 30,000 copies.That means the Nelson Weekly and Waimea Weekly, the only locally owned newspapers in Nelson, go into more than 30,000 homes, with hundreds of extras dropped off at points in Stoke, Richmond and the CBD and to businesses. Chief executive and publisher of the newspapers Steve Page says the increase is due to reader de-mand and is a great sign that Nelsonians are get-ting behind a newspaper owned and operated by Nelsonians.“Nelson folk are very good at supporting Nel-son businesses if the product or service is up to scratch. We have been running for almost seven years now and we’ve proven that we deliver re-sults for advertisers and carry great, interesting stories. That means demand for the papers keeps growing and now has a circulation which has busted through the 30,000 mark, a great mile-stone for the newspapers.”

The Weeklys are delivered to every home from Rai Valley to Murchison and across to the Mou-tere Valley, giving fantastic coverage to the re-gion’s readers and advertisers.The boost in circulation is another milestone for the Weekly, after winning the Nelson Tasman Chamber of Commerce Award for best emerg-ing business last November.Steve says any businesses that haven’t used the Weeklys for advertising should give it a go.“We are now one of the largest privately owned newspaper groups in the country and provide a massive platform for potential advertisers to get their message across. Our current advertisers are getting the benefits of advertising in a newspa-per that goes to so many homes and we are keen to help other businesses with their marketing.”Steve says another major reason for the papers’ success is interesting stories that people want to read and says he encourages anyone with any story ideas to get in touch.To contact the team at Nelson and Waimea Weekly, give them a call on 548 4949.

Police issue advice after spike in theftTheft from cars in central Nelson has spiked recently, prompting po-lice to issue a caution.Nelson Bays area commander In-spector Steven Greally says that re-cently a number of motor vehicles have been broken into around the Nile St, Brook St and the Central City area. “Atawhai also has received the unwanted attention of thieves. Most of these vehicles were locked but de-spite this, valuable items and money had been left in plain view, making them a suitable target. If it can’t be seen, then it is less likely to be stolen. There are also a large number of cars left unlocked which makes them ap-pealing to a potential offender.” He says recorded theft from vehi-cles is actually down substantially in Nelson and by locking cars and ensuring valuable items are re-moved, or at least out of sight, he

is confident the figure will reduce even further. “Where possible, park your car up a driveway as it is more likely to be broken into if it is on the street. As most offences occur at night, security lighting and cut back vegetation on your property makes the risk of being caught outweigh any potential reward that someone may have in mind. Car alarms are also a good consideration, making your vehicle less attractive to a thief. And of course reporting suspicious behaviour to the police at the time you see it.” Steven says if your vehicle has been broken into, no matter how insig-nificant you think it is, then don’t touch it and report it. This allows the police to examine it forensically as well as gain a pattern of offending increasing the chance of catching the offender.

TUESDAY 26 June 2012NelsonYour Community Newspaper Weekly

A lightning strike in Brightwater last Monday night has caused com-puters to explode and ruined thou-sands of dollars worth of electronic equipment.Lightning struck Palmer Rd and Livingston Rd in Brightwater, leav-ing some residents without power or internet access for many days. There was a report of a destroyed television while phones, scanners, printers, modems and light bulbs were also ruined in some homes.Livingston Rd residents Colin and Jenny Hall were sitting in the lounge when they heard the computer room “combust.” The couple did not lose power to their home but a brand new $3000 computer, scan-ner and printer were ruined. “It was like a bolt out of the blue,” says Jenny. “It was just like the com-puter room blowing up. The whole room just went ‘kaboom’. We were in the lounge and we felt the com-bustion. It was horrible.”Kelly and Paula Fearnley, who also live on Livingston Rd, thought their son had been electrocuted by his Xbox. “There was a mas-sive bang. I heard my kid scream. I thought something had blown up. It was really scary,” says Kelly.

Paula was at a friend’s place when the lightning and thunder struck. She returned to her home without any power. “It was just black. There are no street lights so it was impos-sible to see.” Their computer and modem had been destroyed.When lightning hits the ground it tends to travel. In this case it trav-elled through an underground copper network and affected two telecommunications links, which

cater for up to 100 custom-ers. But Chorus s p o k e s p e r s o n Robin Kelly says the number of affected resi-dents was much less than 100. “It would’ve entered the network and travelled to road-side cabinets and also travelled down the line and affected custom-ers’ equipment in their own homes,” says Robin.

Repairs to their own network had been completed by Saturday but the lengthy process getting all of the residents back online can be a more difficult task. “We’re still working through everything so if there are residents that are experi-encing problems then they need to log a fault.” Lightning strikes are not “uncom-mon” in the Nelson region. Robin says the damage from Monday’s storm followed a “similar trend” to previous experiences.

We have passed the shortest day, and it is only a few more days until the second term school holidays, another month to cross off on the calendar. It’s been a busy ½ year at college for my own teenagers and their friends, and I know they are all looking forward to a relaxing school holiday. I am sure some of you are planning to go away or even head to the mountains for a play in the snow or to hit the slopes. Be safe and enjoy.Fashion Island is having the most amazing ‘winter wonderland.’ First week of the holidays we are bringing snow to Nelson… an ice/snow mountain with snow makers, so come and bring the children and have a play. Grab a hot chocolate and enjoy the winter white atmosphere. Make sure while you are here to go into the draw to win double ski passes to Rainbow ski field, or Cardrona ski field near Queenstown. Wrap up warm with some furs or decadently warm jerseys from The Rock Box. This gorgeous store has had more amazing winter clothes arrive, jackets, long tees, jeans and dresses. For all girls shopping for their ball dresses, you definitely need to look at the stunning selection of short and long dresses and with The Rock Box’s selection of beautiful jewellery you will be ready to start booking your makeup with The Body Shop for your special night. Have a fabulous week, and I look forward to seeing you at our Fashion Island.

Bob Croy likes to do his bit for the Cancer Society. He grows daffodils for its annual appeal and collects money on Daffodil Day. But after completing this year’s Relay for Life he wanted to do something bigger.His idea though was mini. A 1975 Morris Mini Mark 3, to be precise.Bob says he and three friends were sitting around a café table drinking coffee after this year’s Relay for Life, having raised more than $2500 for the charity. But seeing another group raise more than $6000 got their competitive juices going and he began to think about how they could top it for the 2014 event. “I thought ‘how the hell can I beat that?’”The idea of restoring a mini like brand new soon followed and in March Bob shook hands with a reluctant sell-er and purchased the Mini for him and his mates to restore before raffling it off. The plan was to raise $10,000 but with offers of help coming from all over the region Bob reckons they’ll smash that total. “I think that estimate will be very light,” he grins.The four mates – all from Wakefield – all have a pas-

sion for helping people with cancer. They have all seen its effects up close, so were keen to make sure the Mini raffle was done right and soon after starting their project they had offers of support from panel beaters, car painters and auto electrians. Bowater Motor Group also found out about the project and came on board as a sponsor, supply-ing every brand new part for free.Bob says the support was overwhelming. “When we start-ed my wife and I were going to pay for it all and when the raffle finished pay ourselves back and hoped there would be $10,000 at the end of it. But with everyone coming on board we don’t have to do that, it’s really good.”The mini has been stripped down to every last part and was recently sandblasted. The engine will be rebored and the car will be painted bright yellow. The only thing that will not be standard will be tyres and mags.

“We hope to have it finished by June next year, then we’ll cart it around and sell raffle tickets.”Among those volunteering their time to work on the car are Tony Johnson from Sun City Panel and Paint, Nick Harrison, John Ross and the three other originals, John Bruce, Dal Stewart and Colin Ryder. They plan to cart the Mini around on a trailer all over the top of the south.Bob says with the team now in place he contacted Nelson Weekly to let the public know what’s going on. “A lot of people don’t know about it. The people we’ve told have been right in behind us but the general public doesn’t really know so we want to get it out there.”By this time next year, the bright yellow Mini will defi-nitely be out there and Bob says he hopes it will make its mark not just for how it looks, but for how much money it raises.

Mini challenge a giant fundraiser

Organising an event is stressful, and leav-ing the most important part – the food – up to anyone other than the best will cer-tainly make it even more of a worry. That’s why Lincoln and Brigitta Womersley at Blinc Catering have been so busy. They are the best.From catering to just a few people at a private dinner party to 600 plus at the biggest of func-tions, Lincoln and his team are experts.Blinc caterers can do it all, from corporate catering and event catering to dozens of weddings in Nelson. Recently married, one Nelson couple were happy to rec-ommend others to use Blinc.“Trying to keep control of everything leading up to your big day is tough work. When your family is in town and every-thing is manic the last thing you want to worry about is the professionals you’ve employed to make your day special.“I can honestly say Lincoln and his team were the least of our worries. We spoke be-forehand about what we wanted and spe-

cial requirements for family members. He advised us on what worked well together while letting us decide what we wanted. The food was right on time, cooked mag-nificently and extremely tasty.“Every single person we spoke to com-mented on the food and how good it was.

The team was in and out without any fuss and I felt so grateful for the service I called Lincoln on Monday morning to thank him. It was fantastic service and wonder-ful food, no doubt.”Give Lincoln a call to find out more about what he offers, on 548 4768 or 021 259 9337 or visit www.blinc.co.nz.

New tanks for CaltexCaltex Bishopdale is getting an upgrade with two new fibre glass gas tanks being installed to replace the four older steel ones.Local owner operator Kyle Lightfoot says the project to re-place the tanks at the Waimea Rd petrol station will take be-tween six and eight weeks and started on June 11.Kyle says that the new tanks be-ing installed are “rather large” and provide the same capacity as before.“The main reason for the up-

grade is to future proof the site and meet the latest environmen-tal standards,” says Kyle.“It will be great for our custom-ers when it’s finished and we look forward to providing them great fuel service again soon.” In the interim, the Caltex Bish-opdale shop is still open to the public from 7am to 7pm each day for customers’ convenience and Caltex fuel card holders are able to use Gourdie Automotive, also on Waimea Rd, during the refit.

Caltex Bishopdale is closed while its tanks are replaced. The work will take between six and eight weeks. Photo: Rosie Thomsen.

Museum educator retires after 17 years For 17 years Imogen McCarthy has de-scribed the exhibits at the Nelson Pro-vincial Museum to thousands of Nelson students but last week she became an exhibit herself.Imogen retired last Thursday from her beloved job, and to show how important she has been to the museum, chief exec-utive Peter Millward gave her an exhibit tag – with an official museum number.“We don’t want to let her go so she will be in our system forever now,” he joked.Imogen was one of two educators at the museum and was farewelled last Thurs-day by her work colleagues, family, friends and representatives from most of the schools in the region.She says she will miss the job but it is time to “move on”.“I’m 68 years old so it’s time I made dif-ferent choices and I’ll still do contracts for people but I want to be able to choose what I do and when I do it. I’ve got lots of grandchildren so that will keep me

busy.” Her former workmates said Imogen is “one out of the box” and she will leave a “big hole”.“The gifts she has given the children is quite something. She’s been an absolute leader, the teaching style is unique and different from other parts of the coun-try,” says Peter.Imogen started her working life as a for-ester but says there wasn’t much work for a female forester “back in those days”. So she became a school teacher, working for 20 years at Tapawera Area School. She says contact with the children and being able to study a wide range of con-tent were two highlights of her job. “I’ve got a mine of useless information so it was quite nice to share it.”She says she was a little embarrassed by all the fuss over her retirement but her colleagues said she deserved the send-off. “She is a living legend,” says Peter. “As it says on her official exhibition tag; they don’t lie.”

Many of the regions’ budding young artists will have their work displayed for the very first time thanks to the My Kid Could Do That! art competi-tion.The competition attracted more than 400 entries after it appeared in Nel-son Weekly last month, thrilling its organiser Gill Starling, of Richmond Picture Framers. The top 31 works were selected to be framed and exhib-ited as part of the competition.It took the experi-enced judges Lloyd Harwood, Anne Rush and Steve Fullmer more than three hours to se-lect which artworks will be framed and exhibited. Richmond Picture Framers now has a big task ahead to frame all 31 art-works before the show opens on

July 1 says Gill. “We’ve heard from Reflections Art Gallery at WOW that quite a few people have already visited hoping to see the show, so the signs are that it’s going to be a massive success. The exhibition has been so much fun to organise.” My Kid Could Do That! is open for three weeks from July 1. All the art-works displayed will be for sale.

The Maori king, Tuheitia Paki, will open the region’s first ever Maori immersion school on July 14.Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Tuia te Matangi, which is situated in Richmond next to Salisbury School and the Richmond Church of Christ, has employed six teachers, including its principal, and has 54 students currently enrolled. The majority of those students have come from central Nelson.It will be the fifth Maori immersion school in the South Island and was fully funded by the Ministry of Education.Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Tuia te Matangi principal Merita Waitoa-Paki says the school “is a dream come true” following an idea that started 20 years ago to build a kura in Nelson. “Even for me, who has come on in the later time,

for Maori education in Nelson, Marlborough and Tasman it is exciting,” she says. “For me personally it is huge challenge but it’s very exciting and motivating.”The first month will involve creating a culture amongst the school. Staff will go through a three day “live in” at the Whakatu Marae before the school opens.The kura is being constructed by Arrow International.Every student and family was interviewed and assessed in Te Reo Maori prior to joining the kura. Merita would like to acknowledge the schools that the students are coming from. “They’ve been so supportive for the students to go. As part of the exit from their schools, a lot of them will be holding various farewells and we’ve been invited for the hand over.”

Children were taught to mix envi-ronmental responsibility with fun for the Hyperwaste Art Expo, held on the cathedral steps last Friday.Any waste was fair game for the stu-dents, with CDs, old lampshades, plastic bottles and food wrappers finding a second life in the 30-odd artworks. Nine schools and early childhood centres got involved.

The exhibition was the brainchild of Sarah Langi, of the Nelson Environ-ment Centre, who timed the expo with Matariki to tie in with the fun of the event and the message of new beginnings.The Refinery Artspace selected 10 pieces for their display, with the remainder going to the childrens library. They will be gathered once more for Ecofest in August.

Celebrate the opening of LK this Saturday, as the

familiar Liquor King store invites the public for an afternoon of fun and giveaways in honour of the store's facelift and re-branding. The familiar store on the corner of Collingwood and Hardy now has the most modern liquor experience in the country. Huge discounts and specials will be on offer all day, with the radio stations coming along in full force with a sausage sizzle between 1pm and 3pm. Dave Hall, the store manager, is confident you "won't find a better looking store in the country." The store is spacious and easy to navigate, with a wide range of exclusive beers and ciders available on tap for customers to try and take home in a two litre glass siphon. As part of a national franchise, the new LK store was designed and built to exceptional standards, to create a welcoming and desirable environment for shopping.LK has functions and events sorted, with bulk discounts on large orders, and even free

delivery to the venue. The passionate staff have been kept busy during the transition, with the store remaining open throughout the six week renovations. Many have been with the store for a long time and they're more than happy to help out. Dave has extensive product knowledge and can help you cater to everyone's needs, whether you're buying for a 21st or trying to pick the perfect bottle of

wine for a special occasion.Nelson is the 21st store in New Zealand to undertake the rebranding, with more to follow. Local builders have been used in each case, to help stimulate and put money into the economy. In Nelson, Scott's Construction took the reins, along with local subcontractors, doing a great job of renovating the store while allowing it to remain open, with an emphasis on customer safety at all times.

LK will be celebrating this weekend with unbeatable prices, and great specials and offers will continue to run throughout July.

Healthcare in Nelson is about to take a leap forward in convenience and accessibility with the opening of the Collingwood Centre set for the end of next month. The new building will house Nelson Radiology, Nelson Orthopaedics, as well as general practitioners, a pharmacy and various other medical and health services.The shared location of these services will allow medical professionals to easily refer patients to other specialists. It will boast an ambulance bay as well as an Accidents and Medical clinic, and has been designed as a supplement to the hospital.The newly constructed building will be three stories tall and more than 3,500 square metres, allowing an abundance of space for the specialists already on board and space for more to join.On the ground floor will largely be the accidents and medical clinic, with an undercover ambulance bay at the rear of the building, as well as a cafe and a standalone pharmacy, with access under a covered glass walkway.The first floor will house Nelson Radiology and Nelson Orthopaedics, with the second floor designed to be adapted to fit a few large sized specialists, or up to ten smaller specialists. It is designed to be flexible so if the needs of the occupants change, or there is a change of

business, the space can be adapted to fit the need.Some spaces have already been reserved, with a lot of interest being generated in the lead up to the opening.The building was designed by Arthouse Architecture, with Architect Jorgen Andersen spearheading the project. Arthouse Architecture has made a name for themselves in the Nelson region, designing striking and modern buildings such as the new Saxton Pavilion. They have won several awards within the industry, including New Zealand Institute of Architecture Awards, as well as awards from Registered Master Builders, ITM and Wild Tomato. Arthouse Architecture won the contract for the design with the concept designed by Anderson.

terracotta tile pattern that wraps around the front exterior is inspired by strands of DNA, as well as the idea of having one layer protecting the next. The wooden slats will be complimented by planters and a wall length water feature. Lighting has been installed around the exterior, with the designers opting for LED lights to allow them to run all night without using much electricity. They will help ensure overnight safety and security.The project was among the first developments approved by the Nelson City Council’s Urban Design Panel, and although it was designed by local engineers, collaboration was sought from Christchurch and Wellington for structural and service engineering.More than five services and businesses have already claimed their place within the new complex, with more to come. The staff will have access to a spacious staff room, complete with kitchen and shower facilities.The issue of privacy for the occupants and visitors to the building was addressed through the use of vertical solar shading and sections of solid wall around the exterior as well as effective use of the vertical timber battens to reduce visibility of the rooms without compromising sunlight.The building was designed with sustainability in mind. The structure and external decor will require minimum maintenance, with materials chosen for their durability and resistance to degradation. Natural light is harnessed within the building wherever possible, with an effort to have all rooms against an external wall to allow for windows.The need for artificial temperature control is intended to be minimal, with the options of opening curtains or windows kept a priority. Double glazing and high levels of insulation have been installed to keep the building cool in the summer and warm in the winter with little effort or expense.

“We’ve installed a thing on the north facing wall called the ‘eyebrow,’ inside of

which will be a whole lot of vertical sun louvers, which will help

regulate the heat gain through the window. Every window, or at

least part of it, can be opened. We’re trying to reduce the reliance

on artificial heating and cooling, so there

are options in place which can be taken advantage of before having to rely on the air conditioners,” says Anderson.Occupant safety was a factor that weighed heavily on the design plans. A fire escape is located at the rear of the building, and the building is fitted throughout with a sprinkler system. In the unlikely event of an earthquake, the building is structurally designed to withstand well; as a medical building it is required to be 30 per cent more earthquake resistant than the equivalent office building. Even in a severe quake, the building is designed to stand long enough to safely evacuate all occupants.There are 28 parking spaces with the majority of them undercover, as well as 18 cycle parks. Cars are directed in through a drive between LK and the Collingwood Centre through the one way entrance, and through behind the building to the exit up St John St. A raised walkway allows pedestrians safe access to the rear entrance.The building will be an asset to the medical community as well as the community at large, as it brings together specialists and specialty equipment in a complex with modern facilities and a welcoming, safe atmosphere. The Cafe provides the perfect way for patients or friends and relatives to wait for appointments or prescriptions.With the opening just a month away, the public will soon have the chance to experience the convenience and benefits of the new Collingwood Centre.

The Collingwood Centre build is being undertaken by Gibbons Construction, who began construction of the project in 2010. The building is due to be complete by end of this month, with the services opening to the public at the end of July.Emphasis has been placed on ease of navigation throughout the building. The central atrium is the full height of the building, with each floor displaying colour coded signage which is easily visible from any floor. There are central stairs and an elevator to allow easy access to all parts

of the building.The outside of the building is adorned with a cedar wraparound pattern, which was designed to serve multiple purposes. “We’ve used a lot of timber over the top of the concrete panels, that’s just another way of softening the exterior. We’ve also tried to use it as a bit of a way-finding mechanism; the idea is that they wrap around the bottom of the building and end up at either the front door or the back door,” says Anderson.The outside of the building was designed to reflect the medical nature of its occupants. The

The new Collingwood Centre, opposite Buxton’s Car park on Collingwood St. Construction is due to finish within the next month.

The new Collingwood Centre will house a range of medical specialists and was developed as a supplement to the hospital.

Hot rods ready to light up Nelson roadsIan Jones knows what it’s like to be stared at. His stunning hot rod has turned more heads than Rachel Hunter in a bikini. So this weekend’s cruise with most of the re-gion's hot rods as well as American vintage cars and American motorbikes should be quite a sight.The Nelson Hot Rod Club is organising a cruise from its base at the Nelson Suburban Club to Kaiteriteri this Sunday, July 1, to commemorate American Independence Day. The club is inviting everyone with any kind of American vehicle to come along and take part, be it in a vintage car, motorbike or late model car.Ian and his wife Sue will be driving in their hot rod that Ian spent three and a half years build-ing. He says it’s a mash of several different cars. “It was scratch built, the only thing original is the chasse rails. The rest has been modified.”

It is the second hot rod Ian has built, buying his first one as an 18 year old. He says he likes the “nostalgia” of driving an old-style car.“I like the stylish looking car, the shapes, curves, the contours. Something you can panel beat and make look good. I like driving the old-style cars because they have a lot of character.”Ian imported a roadster body from the United States for his car, which also has an Edelbrock 350 Chevy motor with high performance gear in it, a turbo 350 auto transmission with a 9 inch diff. The brakes and steering are from a Holden HQ.The cruise is meeting at the Nelson Suburban Club, 68 Tahuanui Dr, July 1 at 9.30am and leav-ing at 11am. It will go via Main Rd, Stoke, Queen St Richmond, then via the Coastal Highway to Kaiteriteri, parking up there for two hours then cruising back via the old Moutere highway back to the Suburban Club around 4pm.

You have a further obligation to assist the police as required until advised otherwise. • Some time ago a concerned citizen rightly called the police as they thought someone in-side the harbour, standing on the upturned hull of their small yacht, was in danger. The

wind was very strong and the conditions rough. Unfortunately they then gave the po-lice a false phone number and scarpered. Several resources responded to the mayday inconveniencing many, and costing many a great deal of time and money. When the con-cerned citizen watched the yacht get righted, the sailor climb inside and then sail away he could have rung the police back and cancelled the mayday. Too easy. There is absolutely no penalty in these circumstances.• The harbour master, police and Search and Rescue co-ordinators do appreciate early and accurate notice of an emergency unfolding. If it doesn’t unfold we also appreciate notifica-tion that it won’t.

Please, don’t hesitate to call, and don’t hesitate to call back.

Local talent took the spotlight as doctors and medical students graced the Nelson School of Music stage. A full house welcomed the inaugural performance of the New Zealand Doctors’ Orchestra, comprised of 65 doctors and medical students from around the country.Local surgeon Adrian Secker received rapturous applause for his piano solo, followed by physiotherapist Tara Martin, who captivated the audience with her soprano solo, both accompanied by the orchestra.Professor Tim Wilkinson of the University of Otago, says they uncovered a “wealth of musical talent and enthusiasm,” when seeking skilled musicians in the medical industry, with the

majority of the orchestra players having reached grade eight or higher for their respective instruments.The NZDO was partly formed to highlight the necessity to maintain a healthy work-life balance in a demanding job, says Wilkinson. Similar ventures have become a tradition in Australia and Europe, with medical professionals showcasing their musical talent to raise money for local charities. The concert was the first by the NZ Doctors’ Orchestra, which is touring New Zealand for charity, with costs for travel and venue hire covered by the players themselves. All proceeds from Nelson’s ticket sales are to be donated to the Nelson Regional Hospice Trust.

SPORT

The country's fastest growing sport is hav-ing similar effects in Nelson.Futsal, an indoor variant to football, has called the Nelson College for Girls Hall home on Monday nights but due to the sport's growing popularity, a new winter league will also be held on Wednesdays.Currently, Nelson Bays Fustal has 16 teams that compete in its Autumn League on Monday. But that demand is now bursting at the seams and the sport's leading figure in Nel-son says it's time for new players and teams to join the flow over on a Wednesday. The first week is free. "I just want to let people know that now is the time to give it a go. If I could replicate on a Wednesday night what we do on a Monday night then I'd be happy as, it'd be brilliant," says coordinator John Vaughan.The Winter League is even open to play-ers who do not have a team organised. It is common for players to show interest and be put into teams on the night.Participation numbers have grown 25 per cent over the past six months.Futsal is part of New Zealand Football's Whole of Football Plan, which was imple-mented following the 2010 FIFA World Cup to develop future stars.Nelson's own future futsal players are start-ing to develop now as well with the region sending an Under-15 representative side to a junior futsal tournament in Wellington next month. If you are interested in playing futsal or want to find out more information on the sport, please contact John on 027 547 4436.

Around 180 people witnessed the in-augural Tasman Secondary Schools and Years 7 and 8 Teams motocross held at the Parkes property, 88 Valley, Wakefield on Sunday. Supported by Sport Tasman and hosted by the Nelson Motorcycle Club in con-junction with MotoX Events, 63 riders thrilled the crowd with close and fast racing on a perfectly groomed track.Individual points and honours were up for grabs as well as the all important Teams trophy consisting of 3 riders per team.Jackson Walker of Broadgreen Inter-mediate owned the small wheel 85/150 class with four outright wins leaving Joel Madsen-Clark and Ethan Couper

to claim 2nd and 3rd respectively.Clayton Roeske of Waimea Interme-diate had to fight for first place in the big wheel 85/150 class from a consist-ent Ethan Waters with George Holland rounding out third.The speed and stamina of Bradley Biggs from Waimea College was too much for the 20 other 125/250 class riders to match. A hard fight and deserved sec-ond place went to Liam Hutton also of Waimea College with Nelson College’s Ethan Bruce taking third.Twelve teams fought for the top school honours with the combined total of Waimea College just edging out Waimea Intermediate which came sec-ond and Nelson College placed third.

Galbraith Group Nelson may have stumbled in last year’s division one final against Wakatu Marist, but there was no denying the side’s dominance on Saturday as it romped home to win the inaugu-ral Bayleys Tasman Trophy 35-0.Nelson scored first points at a rain-soaked Trafalgar Park courtesy of two first half tries by Andrew Goodman and Danny Glover.

Andrew also landed one penalty goal.Nelson’s ruthlessness on attack has been a catalyst for its impres-sive start to the season, which sees the side more than 20 points clear of second place in the Car Company division one standings, but it was the side’s defence that paid dividends throughout the encounter.

IN BRIEFRUgbY LEAgUE: The Simon Mannering Cup will take place tomorrow at Tahunanui Sports Fields after it was postphoned from last week. The cup is a primary school competition which is due to kick off around 1.20pm.

fooTbALL: AMI Nelson Suburbs has been knocked out of the ASB Chatham Cup, losing to Cashmere Technical 2-0 in Christchurch over the weekend.

RUn mAhAnA: Nelson Events has changed this years RunMahana to a Sunday and No-vember 25 is headed towards a big field al-ready with 125 entered over opening day weekend. Full details about the race and its new dates on www.runmahana.co.nz.

The Nelson Sparks were one early morning tipoff away from a perfect start to the Women's Basketball Championship season.The 53-43 loss to Waitakere West Auckland Rangers was the only blight on an otherwise superb first up tournament that was high-lighted by a 50-42 victory over the Canterbury Wildcats late on Sunday afternoon.The WBC, which is the premier basketball tournament for women in New Zealand, is held in a different format from the men's equivalent. Instead of playing each weekend on a home and away basis, the WBC is held over three separate three day tournaments. The final tournament will also hold the playoffs.Nelson Sparks welcomed back Jelena Vucinic and Jessica Bygate from the United States for the tournament, while a number of other play-ers studying at university also donned the blue singlet. Youngsters Kaitlyn Stringer, Lily Hos-pers and Gracie Roberts were named in the in-itial squad as head coach Tatjana Zizic looked for a mixture of youth and experience. Jodi Hi-kuroa, Lisa Book and Kat Jones were all used to good effect throughout the tournament.Big wins over Palmerston North Storm and the Taranaki Trojans in the first two rounds had put Nelson on top of the standings early. But Sunday morning's loss has left the side in third place going into tournament two next month. The unusual time of an 8am tipoff for Sunday's clash with Waitakere West Auckland was no excuse as Tatjana cited a lack of execution for the loss. Rangers were clinical from the floor, nailing shots at 60 per cent throughout the en-counter. "Apart from that I was really happy. It was the first tournament and we had about three or four players come into the squad and we didn't have much time as a team," she says. The next two tournaments will be held in July and August in Hutt Valley and Dunedin.

A two week break may have been just what Stoke needed.Due to a default and a bye Accesman Stoke's division one team was able to mend battered bodies and refocus ahead of a run to the finals and proved why it cannot be discounted, toppling in form Wanderers, 46-18.Stoke dominated in all facets of the game. The victory was paved by an immense game from the Stoke forwards, mar-shalled by half back Shawn Begg. The Stoke pack provided the necessary front foot ball to combine well with the backs. Stoke went into the break in unfamiliar territory with a comfortable 29-3 lead already securing a well needed bonus point. After the break Stoke continued to apply pressure resulting in tries to Chad Lowrie, Shawn Begg and Sam Dempster. This was Sam’s inaugural game for the division one team, turning in a fantastic performance, and an extremely valuable contribution to the team effort. Shawn Begg was inspiring behind the pack, with an outstanding display in the number 9 jersey, finishing the day with a well-de-served hat trick of tries. The front row of Mike Tyler, Max Glos-sop and Ray Packer provided the im-petuous by taking on the opposition ball in hand in a display of powerful run-ning. Max’s replacement Craig Groome maintained the momentum. Jarrod Aberhart was full of vigour, dominating lineouts and the ball in the air. Hard-working lock Ben Douglas demonstrated some glimpses of individual brilliance with ball in hand and number 8 Tevita Koloamatangi was again in devastating form, carv-ing up the opposition at will. Skipper Stu Tunnicliff put in another admirable performance leading from the front while first five Jacob Beleski made several well timed line breaks, with some sharp incisive running. The midfield pairing of Chad Lowrie and Patrick Tafili-Reid proved a real handful on attack and rock solid on defence and the back three of Chris Little, Leon Guerin and Brenton Con-nell combined well, and always were threatening on coun-terattack, thus complimented by Brenton finishing off a

well worked move. Stoke is set to take on Wakatu Hotel Marist this Saturday.The Stoke womens’ team easily turned in its performance of the season so far against Marist at Tahunanui on Satur-day, winning 40-12. It was truly a team effort against spirited opposition, and after a faced-paced start Stoke managed to settle things down by dictating field position. Sallyanne Archibald was instrumental with a well-executed kick-chase game and the aid of a nice tail wind, allowing her speedy outsides time to follow up. Playing in the opposition half paid dividends for Stoke and it took a 21-5 lead into the break, after seeing off a late Marist onslaught.

Marist came out firing in the second half, and defence was clearly a focus, with supporters cheering their team on af-ter every big hit. Stoke’s forwards met the challenge and muscled up at the breakdown where superior ball reten-tion and counter-rucking kept them on the front foot. Out wide, the backs were linking expertly, retaining the ball well in the tackle until backup arrived and allowing good continuity. Many players stood up when it counted. Dependable centre Lucy Higgins had an outstanding game, and winger Fern Hoskin was solid on both attack and defence. The work rate of Janelle McGregor and Holly Fry was su-perb up front, and they should be well pleased with their contribution to the team’s 40-12 win.

The two teams which gained promotion to Grade 7 - Stoke Power Signs and Suburban Gold faced off at Saxton Saturday on Saturday.Suburban had the better start and had an 8-7 lead after the first quarter, courtesy of some excellent shooting by goal attack Georgia Harris.Stoke Power Signs coach, Natalie Ewing introduced Courtney Musgrove at wing attack and made four positional changes which made an impact. The most effective was Tara Beleski’s move out to goal defence. She came into her own with more room to roam where she picked up numerous well timed intercepts. Tara displayed speed through court and rebounded strongly and was a formidable

defensive unit with Savanna Adams. Stoke outscored Suburban in the second period to go into the major break 18-15 up.Suburban lifted its game in the third quarter on the back of some hard work by mid courters Caitlin Hampton and Alex McCombe who

hassled their opposites for every scrap of ball. The quarter was shared at 7 apiece.Stoke moved up a gear in the final period when it outscored Suburban by two to one. Shooters, Zoe Cookson and Joy

Symthe were the force behind the resurgence as they moved the circle to find their favoured shooting position. Zoe also got through a power of work defensively as she had considerable tip

ball.The shooters had an abundance of quality ball delivered by Tessa Wright from centre. Tessa fed intelligently, with beautiful angles - from the sideline it looked as if the ball was astray as it left her hands, however there were only three passes that did not reach their target and given Tessa’s workload it was a pretty impressive negative statistic.Courtney did great work off the line and received the bulk of the centre passes.Suburban coach, Carole Ferguson-Leslie was rapt with her players’ performance. Her girls looked focussed from the onset, they did a bit of jiving in their warm up - the music coming from the other end of the stadium where the New Zealand Women’s Basketball Tournament was competing. Suburban played with passion and was intent in playing a strong defensive game and was unlucky to miss out on a bonus point in the 27-35 loss.

Stoke starts strong in new grade

Troy Dando with a tagged kingfish caught at D’Urville.

This week we are looking at areas to jig kingfish. The most common area close to Nelson in summer is around the mussel farms close to Motueka. Use a 200gm – 300gm jig close to the ends of the farms at first light and be prepared to move away from the structure when you hook up. Another way is to throw a stickbait or popper into the farm and have another person jigging on the boat, like switch baiting marlin.The most common area to target big kingfish is around D’Urville Island. Look for areas of fast moving water with steep dropoffs. Use your sounder to find the schools of bait fish and look for kingfish around the outsides of these schools.Be prepared to change jigs a lot until

you find one that will work. Having a good range of different jigs is a must. Top, bottom and middle weighted jigs, different colours, sizes and shapes, you can never cover enough bases, and one of them will work. Keep your line straight up and down to maximise your hook-up rate.Remember don’t gaff your fish, lift them out with your heavy leader, tag and release your fish. We recommend one fish per boat per day to keep the fishery sustainable. Come and see us at the DBFC club, to learn from members like Troy, on how to land, tag and release these awesome fish.

Coming Soon

Nelson's Anita Punt looks destined to receive her 100th test cap on the biggest stage of them all – the 2012 Olympic Games.The pacey Black Sticks attacking midfielder has been involved in the national side for the past four years, having represented New Zealand at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi. Anita will officially make her Olympic debut in Lon-don, following her selection in the 16-person squad earlier this month.The former Waimea College product currently sits on 93 tests and was quick to point out that the big 100 should be reached in London, after the four nations tournament in Germany next month. "If I play all of those games in Germany then that's four caps so I most probably will get my 100th in London which is pretty exciting," says Anita. "Hopefully it goes to plan and that happens."The Black Sticks women are ranked sixth in the world but Anita was realistic about the team's medal chances in London despite winning bronze at last year's Champions Trophy. "Each team will be at its best because it's the Olympics so it is going to be really tough for us. But if we play well as a team then we can beat anyone. But we don't want to think about medals yet."Joining New Zealand in Pool B is Argentina, Ger-many, Australia, United States and South Africa.Australia will be New Zea-land's first opponents at the Games. "I think it's good to play them first because we've played them a lot and it's such a good rivalry. At the moment we're slightly ahead of them in terms of winning so we just have to go there and play game by game."According to Hockey New Zealand's website, Anita's blinding speed over 10m would put her in the top eight in the men's squad. While speed is her most dangerous weapon on the turf, Anita was quick to distinguish the hype that she was the fastest women's player in the world. "It's not actually proven so I don't like to say that at all. I've never raced everyone. But that's what I bring to the team; speed and fitness. When I don't play as well, it's my confidence in my speed not my ability in hockey."In an Olympic year, playing for the Black Sticks women's team is a full-time job, compared with the men's team which has players that work 9-5 jobs every day of the week and find time to train before or after. Anita's parents, sister and brothers will be trave-ling to London to watch her play at the Olympics and she says she is excited about the prospect of completing her childhood dream of playing at the Olympics. "I'm from little old Richmond, Nelson. I never thought I'd get to go to an Olym-pic Games. You watch it on TV and dream about it but to actually go is going to be great. But I don't want to get too overwhelmed because I don't want it to affect my performance."
