Power cut 

Power was lost to all 23,500 

Waipa Networks customers for 

a time on Saturday night 

following a severe electrical 

storm in the area. 

At 8.55pm lightning 

disrupted the Transpower 

Hamilton-Karapiro circuit 

causing loss of power to the 

Cambridge and Te Awamutu 

substations. The Cambridge 

substation was restored at 

9:17pm and Te Awamutu by 

9:34pm. 

“A disruption of this nature is 

very rare and it has been 

several years since both 

substations experienced 

simultaneous outages,” says 

Waipa Networks CEO Ray 

Milner. 

Five Waipa Networks 

transformers were struck by 

lightning with a further 45 faults 

due to blown network fuses. 

Field staff were kept busy 

Saturday night and most of 

Sunday carrying out repairs. 

Shade for kids 

Te Awamutu BNZ is 

fundraising to help Te 

Awamutu Plunket Playgroup 

put shade sails over their 

sandpit.

‘‘We have a life sized 

cardboard cut out of three 

Chiefs rugby players and one 

Chiefs rugby top to give 

away,’’says BNZ manager 

Chris McMillan. ‘‘ We are 

asking for a gold coin donation. 

Every donation goes into the 

draw to win either the 

cardboard cut-out or the rugby 

top.’’ 

Entries close July 29 with 

the draws made on August 1.

The Flying Scroll is the title 

for the combined churches

Road at 2pm this Sunday (July 

17).

YOUR LETTERS 

How the mountain lost its mojo 

To my children’s children’s 

children. 

Once upon a time there was 

a sad mountain named 

Maungatautari. 

The reason Maungatautari 

was said was because he had 

been invaded by evil pests, and 

they had eaten up nearly all of 

his lovely bird, insect and 

animal friends, who loved on 

his his bush clad slopes. 

On day a clever elf had the 

Time to look after our pennies 

There is an old saying ‘look after the 

pennies and the pounds will look after 

themselves’. Of course now it’s dollars 

and cents. 

You can go down town with money in 

your pocket, $50 or whatever thinking to 

yourself that’s plenty for what I need 

today, but where does it go? 

Spend a little here, a little there and 

before you know it the only thing in your 

pocket is your hand. Money is so easy to 

wonderful idea of putting up a 

special pest proof fence 

around maungatautari, and 

the getting rid of all the nasty 

possums, rats, mice, stoats and 

feral cats from bushy slopes. 

All the lovely native birds, 

insects and animals would 

then be able to return to 

Maungatautari and live there 

safely. 

Very soon the elf and lots of 

his friends built a marvellous 

fence, and got rid of all the evil 

pests. 

The birds, insects and 

animals returned and thrived. 

People came from far and 

wide to see the marvellous 

fence and the beautiful birds, 

insects and animals in the 

peaceful Maungatautari refuge. 

The elves looked after the 

fence and watched out for any 

pests who tried to sneak 

spend, debt is so easy to accumulate and it 

is real nice to have or want things — a big 

velodrome, a new swimming complex, a 

new museum with an entertainment 

centre as well. 

Just spend a few million and increase 

public debt and they are all yours. 

Waipa has around 45,000 people, (one 

third of the population of Hamilton) who 

are lucky to live in one of the most 

beautiful, natural places on this planet. 

Who helps the struggling ratepayers? 

In his letter Rob Waddell 

makes a weak attempt to 

explain why every ratepayer 

has to pay for the velodrome. 

It would be safe bet that 

less than 10%, but nearer 5% 

of the region’s ratepayers 

only will use it. 

The regional council has 

no right to grant a small 

group of people $6 Million. 

Instead, it should be a loan 

on which interest is paid. Mr 

Waddell and his mates 

should underwrite the loan. 

There has been so many 

figures quoted, how can we 

be sure the Home of Cycling 

Trust won’t come back to the 

ratepayers for more funds. 

The trust claims they 

have $13.7 Million but 

remember Waipa’s $1 Million 

has four caveats on it, so 

really they can only have 

$12.7 Million. 

If by some chance they get 

$6 Million from the regional 

council, that would be $18.7 

Million. Where is the last $10 

Million to make up the $28.5 

Million. 

The regional councillors 

who voted to spend $61,500 to 

consult the public and 

another $50,000 for an independent 

consultant’s report, 

plus $38,000 on Deloitte’s due 

diligence report are pouring 

$149,500 down the drain. 

The councillors who voted 

for this foolish move should 

be voted out at the next 

election — they are as pigheaded 

as the cycling project 

proponents. 

When a project is reliant 

on 100% finance in grants 

and donations, it is always 

doomed to fail. 

MALCOLM HUME 

through it. 

Unfortunately, one day the 

elves began to squabble 

amongst themselves. While 

they were arguing and squabbling, 

the sneaky possums, 

rats, mice, stoats and feral 

cats. who were locked outside 

Maungatautari, found little 

chinks in the fence and they 

started to climb and dig and 

chew their way through it ... 

MARY-ANN LAIDLAW 

Clean air, green fields, native bush, 

rivers, lakes, mountains, walkways and 

cycleways. 

These things make us such a unique 

and desirable place to visit or live. 

All we have to do is appreciate what we 

have, control spending, keep rate 

increases to an acceptable level and 

people will want to come and be part of 

Waipa ‘the home of the lucky’. 

VERN WILSON 

Can claim be 

substantiated? 

A Letter to the Editor from 

M.E. Wilson appeared in the Courier 

recently. 

M.E. Wilson claimed that the 

Southland velodrome in Invercargill 

was a great success. 

Can these statements be 

substantiated, financially or 

otherwise. Or are they statements 

gathered from previous press 

releases. 

It is very important to get 

correct information.

Workmates join forces for good cause

WORKMATES (from left): Raewyn Morrow, Debbie Bird, Carol Hooker, Carmen Rush (above) nervously 

get ready for their hair to be shaved and (below) compare the results afterwards. 

BY CATHY ASPLIN 

The middle of winter is probably 

not the best time to shave 

your hair off - but that’s exactly 

what four local women have done. 

Pop ‘n’ Good employees Debbie 

Bird, Raewyn Morrow, Carol 

Hooker and Carmen Rush decided 

to have their heads shaved to 

raise funds for the breast cancer 

foundation. 

‘‘We have in some way all been 

affected by Breast Cancer through 

friends and family and want to 

contribute towards raising funds 

for the cause. 

After setting their target at 

$3000 the women left pink buckets 

at various locations around town, 

staged sausage sizzles and gained 

personal sponsorship. 

In front of gathered friends, 

family and workmates they 

completed their end of the bargain 

by having their heads shaved at 

the Davies Foods’ Pop ‘n’ Good 

Factory on July 1. 

Debbie Bird says it was 

initially a bit of a shock to have 

the razor through her hair, but 

having it all removed has resulted 

in a few bonuses. 

‘‘I’m actually enjoying having 

no hair and I won’t have to colour 

it again.’’ 

Raewyn Morrow says they 

have all received nice feedback. 

‘‘People do a double take to 

start with when they see no hair, 

but they are impressed when they 

know why, especially those who 

have lost someone to breast cancer.’’ 

Carol Hooker says people have 

told them how brave they are. 

‘‘Many of them have said ‘I 

couldn’t so that’. Others says we 

have shown courage and that 

we’re awesome.’’ 

The four workmates thank 

Davies Foods Operations Manager 

Martin Kwan and other staff 

members for ongoing support. 

They are also extremely grateful 

to everyone who has helped 

them successfully reach their target. 

‘‘We have raised just over 

$3000 which was our initial aim, 

so we’re really pleased about 

that.’’ 

Further donations are always 

welcome in person at the factory 

or via the website (www.nzbcffundraising.org.nz). 

When asked if they would do it 

again, they were all quite adamant. 

‘‘It’s a once in a lifetime thing 

really - we can tick it off our list 

now - been there done that.’’

Young Farmer winner grew up here 

Will Grayling, winner of 

The National Bank Young 

Farmer Contest, may have 

been representing Aorangi 

Region but he grew up in this 

area. 

Will (25) is the son of Jim 

and Mary Grayling of O’Regan 

Road, Ngahinapouri. 

‘‘He lives in the South 

Island at the moment, but is 

very much a local boy. He 

attended Ngahinapouri Primary 

School and St Paul’s Collegiate,’’ 

says mum, Mary. 

She and her husband were 

at Masterton to see their son 

triumph in the contest and 

Mrs Grayling says they could 

not be more proud of him. 

He took out The Ultimate 

Rural Challenge after three 

days of intense competition, 

collecting a prize package with 

a value of $85,000. 

It all started on Thursday 

with the Technical Day at 

Brancepeth Station followed 

by the Practical Day at the 

Solway A and P Showgrounds 

and Saturday night’s Televised 

Grand Final Evening 

Show on July 2. 

Along with the excitement 

of winning, Will said he was 

feeling very relieved after 

such a gruelling week. 

“It’s been a pretty challenging 

week, there were some 

tough times but I stuck in 

there. A lot of hard work has 

gone into this and it’s great to 

get this result.” 

Will’s fiancé Kimberley 

True summed up the contest 

as ‘the true test of a man’ and 

congratulated all seven 

contestants for their hard 

work throughout the week. 

Nearly 800 people attended 

the Televised Grand Final 

Evening Show at the Wairarapa 

College Auditorium, 

which was broadcast live on 

TVNZ 7 with delayed coverage

BY GRANT JOHNSTON 

Five women who have collectively 

served RSA Women’s 

Section for over 100 years were 

honoured with life membership 

on Thursday. 

The awards were presented 

by Angel Erstich, president of 

the National Women’s Section 

Association to RSA New Zealand, 

in front of a large gathering 

of local Women’s Section 

8225665AA 

members at Te Awamutu RSA 

Clubrooms. 

She travelled to the event 

from Kaitaia to honour the 

women’s superb service. 

Te Awamutu Women’s Section 

RSA president Mary 

Gadsby said all the women 

had served over 15 years and 

spent countless hours selling 

poppies, catering for funerals, 

creating floral tributes for 

RSA graves and other tasks.

Voters who haven’t received update pack need to re-enroll 

About 50,000 New Zealanders 

need to get back on the 

electoral roll because their 

enrolment update pack has 

bounced back marked ‘gone no 

address’. 

The Electoral Enrolment 

Centre mailed enrolment 

update packs to everyone on the 

electoral roll at the end of May, 

to let them know that the 

election is on its way, and to ask 

them to check their enrolment 

details. 

‘‘If you are one of the 50,000 

or so voters whose pack has 

returned to us because you’ve 

moved house and not updated 

your enrolment details, you 

have been removed from the 

electoral roll,’’ says Murray 

Wicks, National Manager, Electoral 

Enrolment Centre. 

Wellington Central has had 

the most voters removed from 

the roll, while Taranaki-King 

Country has had the least. 

Voters can freetext their 

name and address to 3676, get a 

form from a PostShop, call 

Freephone 0800 36 76 56 or go

Harold and Masterchef 

to create kitchen magic 

It might be a stretch to 

imagine Life Education Trust’s 

mascot, Harold the Giraffe, whipping 

up delicious gourmet fare 

with TV’s 2011 Masterchef winner 

Nadia Lim — but that’s 

what’s on the menu in Te Awamutu 

College Hall on August 20. 

‘Harold’s Winter Feast’ is a 

fundraiser for Waipa King 

Country Life Education Trust, 

which provides a mobile classroom 

to over 60 schools throughout 

the Waipa King Country area. 

Educator Nicky Wise and 

mascot Harold teach kids how to 

‘walk tall’, understand how their 

bodies work and how to value and 

take care of themselves. 

Tickets for the event include a 

three course meal of entrée, main 

and dessert. 

Chef, Nadia Lim will demonstrate 

the choice of two starters 

and desserts during the evening 

(under Harold’s watchful eye). 

There’ll also be a ‘silent’ 

auction and a live auction of 

prizes on the night. Prizes gathered 

so far include a Lake Tarawera 

fishing trip and lunch for 10 

lucky people with Sir Henry van 

der Heyden; coaching and a 

round of golf with Gina Scott; 

beach house weekends at 

Whangamata and Mount 

Maunganui; cookware from 

Stevens; and a range of exciting 

gift vouchers from other supporting 

businesses. 

Organisers at Waipa King 

Country Life Education Trust are 

looking forward to ‘Harold’s Winter 

Feast’ providing an entertaining 

evening full of fun. 

As always, the trust is keen to 

acknowledge its supporters who 

help raise the over $100,000 

needed to keep the mobile classroom 

on the road each year.

Johnston fights way 

to NZ karate crown 

BY COLIN THORSEN 

Kathryn Johnston is the toast 

of Kihikihi Kyokushin Karate 

Club after winning the New Zealand 

novice women’s middleweight 

kumite (fighting) title. 

The yellow belt was without 

peer in her division at the 

national full contact Kyokushin 

Karate Championships in Palmerston 

North. 

The referee stopped both her 

semi-final bout, against Amy 

Watson (Palmerston North), and 

final, against Ellyce Wichman 

(Porirua), after the first of three 

scheduled rounds — awarding 

each fight to Johnston by unanimous 

points decisions. 

Johnston says the martial art 

is a great way to get fit and learn 

self defence. 

She collected a second medal, 

claiming silver in the kata (set 

patterns). 

Clare Fraser also did her Kihikihi 

club proud, claiming a silver 

medal in the lightweight kumite 

final. The blue belt lost a close 

contest, on points, against Palmerston 

North’s Kate Nicholas. 

Fraser also performed well in 

the adult kata, without featuring 

in the medals. 

Kihikihi’s small team of six 

collectively achieved excellent 

results. 

In the men’s elite division, 

club instructor Kevin Maber was 

eliminated on a points decision to 

nemesis Conrad Tuhinga of Auckland, 

an opponent he had beaten 

twice previously. 

Maber is a second dan black

Each club fields a 

team of six players per

The runners-up in 

each zone play for The 

Jug. This was presented 

in 1999 by Merle Shaw, 

Margaret Ranger and 

the late Margaret Johnston. 

Last year’s winners 

of the Wills Cup were 

Horsham Downs, in a 

tight contest from 

Tahuna. It was the first 

time Horsham Downs 

had won the Wills Cup. 

The Jug winners 

were Pirongia, 16 points 

clear of second placed 

Hamilton. 

Baynes and Parker 

had further success 

when their team, also 

including Elaine 

Troutbeck and Sherrill 

Lawrence, won the Stewart 

Alexander ladies’ 

teams tournament. 

The runners-up were 

R. Coleman, B. O’Regan, 

D. Spiers and G. Kay, 

with C. Forster, S. 

Alcock, S. Taylor and P. 

Mills third, and A. 

McGhie, J. Yarndley, E. 

Ford and B. Dench 

fourth. 

Twos were scored by 

C. Forster, S. Taylor, G. 

Street and S. Smith. 

On the club scene at 

Pirongia, new member 

Jill Morgan celebrated 

her Waikato rep selection 

by beating Shirley 

Kewish 3/2 in the final of 

the June Tray.

Grylls quite at home in Cup win 

Satherley dedicates her victory to grandmother 

TC120711CT08 

MUD splattered Te Awamutu Cup winning jockey 

Craig Grylls returns to scale. 

BY PHILLIP QUAY 

Former and current Te Awamutu 

jockeys enjoyed plenty of the limelight at 

Saturday’s Freight Lines Te Awamutu Cup 

meeting. 

Former Te Awamutu jockey Craig 

Grylls won the feature event, the $17,500 

Freight Lines Te Awamutu Cup (1580m,) 

aboard Murray and Bjorn Baker-trained 

Hurricane Mickey who started favourite. 

Grylls, nowadays based at Matamata, 

had not previously won the Cup — so he 

was delighted to add the race to his record 

of major victories. 

‘‘I still regard Te Awamutu as my home 

track, so it was great to win the Cup. 

‘‘He (Hurricane Mickey) loves the wet 

tracks and he was right in his element 

today. 

‘‘He was travelling well throughout the 

race and had them covered in the final 200 

metres.’’ 

Hurricane Mickey has won 10 races 

from only 31 starts and most of his success 

has come on heavy tracks. 

Te Awamutu jockey Lynsey Satherley

HURRICANE MICKEY (Craig Grylls) gets home by three quarters of a length 

from Ourforeignminister (Mark Sweeney) in the Te Awamutu Cup. 

dedicated her win aboard D’Llaro in the 

Rosetown Holden 2000 to her grandmother, 

Angela Thomas, who died early 

last week. 

‘‘It’s been a tough week and this is a 

very emotional win for me,’’ said 

Satherley. 

‘‘She was my biggest fan and kept 

scrapbooks with stories from the paper on 

my wins and about a lot of things in racing. 

‘‘My daughter is named after her 

(Sophie Angela).’’ 

Satherley was pleased with the outcome 

of Saturday’s race after she selected 

D’Llaro ahead of a number of other horses 

engaged in the race. 

‘‘I had a choice of six rides in this race 

and fortunately I picked the right one.’’ 

It was Satherley’s first win since 

breaking her hand in a fall at the Rotorua 

meeting on April 15. 

‘‘It’s great to get a win on the board 

again,’’ she said. 

D’Llaro, who is trained at Cambridge by 

Graeme Lord, excelled on the heavy track 

conditions. 

‘‘He has really clicked now what the 

racing game is all about and I expected him 

to be hard to beat today,’’ said Lord. 

‘‘Lynsey has done quite a lot of riding 

for me and I am delighted to see her get this 

win, especially with what she has been 

through this week.’’ 

D’Llaro scored by half-a-length from 

Tom’s Myth, one of the mounts that 

Satherley was also offered. 

Satherley’s manager, Simon Holmes, 

was pleased to see Satherley back in the 

winners’ circle. 

‘‘She does a lot of hard work and 

deserves all the success she gets,’’ said 

Holmes. 

The other Te Awamutu-based jockey to 

enjoy success at the meeting was Mark 

Sweeney who has been in outstanding 

riding form in recent months. 

Sweeney was successful aboard the 

Rogerson-trained mare, La Bella Signora, 

who is headed for the broodmare paddock 

this spring. 

Sweeney also finished runner-up in the 

Te Awamutu Cup aboard 

Ourforeignminister, trained by Richard 

and Chris Otto. 

Classic win for Darvill trained I’m Isaac 

BY PHILLIP QUAY 

I’m Isaac’s ninth career win 

in the John F Grylls Memorial 

Classic at Te Awamutu on Saturday 

had more meaning than 

any of his previous victories for 

Tauranga trainer Peter Darvill. 

It was the first time Darvill 

had not only celebrated a win as 

the eight-year-old’s part-owner, 

but also this time was recognised 

as his trainer. 

Previously, I’m Isaac was 

prepared for his race victories 

by Tauranga trainers Bruce 

McKeagg and Jim Pender. 

‘‘Today I’m his trainer, 

breeder, part-owner and 

strapper and it’s a great feeling,’’ 

says Darvill, who races 

the Istidaad gelding in partnership 

with his wife, Nola. 

‘‘I thought he could turn his 

form around because he has 

been working well and was 

very fit. 

‘‘I was a bit worried though, 

that the track might have been 

too heavy for him.’’ 

Darvill says I’m Isaac has 

been a special horse for them, 

having won a few Cup races 

including the Te Aroha Cup 

and Wairoa Cup. 

‘‘The race means a lot to us, 

too, because it is named after 

Johnny Grylls who rode this 

horse’s grand-mother, Pheroz 

Faith.’’ 

I’m Isaac will head next to 

the $80,000 Taumarunui Gold 

Cup (2100m) at Te Rapa on July 

30. 

‘‘He had to go a good race 

today to clinch a start in the 

Taumarunui Cup and he’s done 

that.’’ 

Darvill’s riding instructions 

to apprentice, Maija Vance, 

were followed to a tee. 

‘‘I told Maija to stay away 

from the rails and that’s exactly 

what she did,’’ says 

Darvill.Vance, who rode her 

50th winner mid-week at Te 

Rapa, has been enjoying 

improved fortunes since she 

moved from Ardmore to Cambridge 

a month ago. 

‘‘I plan to make Cambridge 

my permanent home now,’’ she 

says. 

‘‘I have been getting more 

rides and my weight is under 

control. I can now ride at 53kg 

whereas before I was struggling 

to get below 56kg.’’

WELCOME back Marty Holah ... the Waikato flanker takes the attack to Taranaki, supported by team-mates, from left, Toby 

Lynn, Malcolm Barnes, Alex Bradley, Chris Middleton and Nathan White. 

Under-20 World Cup winning team member 

Beauden Barrett at first five. 

In doing so, Waikato regained the Ryan 

Wheeler Memorial Trophy, exclusively at 

stake whenever these two proud rugby 

unions meet. 

Waikato coach, Chris Gibbes says he and 

his assistants (Scott McLeod and Greg 

Smith) are ‘incredibly proud’ to be able to 

bring the trophy back to where it belongs. 

‘‘We are very pleased with the effort put 

in by the team at Te Awamutu.’’ 

Taranaki captain Craig Clarke handed 

the trophy over to his Chiefs’ team-mate, 

Waikato captain Nathan White at the aftermatch 

function in Te Awamutu Sports Club. 

John Wheeler, Ryan’s father, was in attendance. 

Gibbes says he could hardly believe his 

eyes at the size of the crowd. 

‘‘To arrive at those grounds and see all of 

the Red, Yellow and Black supporters 

8222550AA 

8228795AA 

8228605AA 

braving the weather to support us, really 

was superb. 

‘‘It was fantastic to be able to take an ITM 

Cup pre-season fixture out to where rugby 

begins — in the local clubs.’’ 

Gibbes says a huge thank you must go to 

Keith Parsons and the team at Te Awamutu 

Sports for putting it all together. 

‘‘Your support is much appreciated by 

everyone at Waikato Rugby.’’

Waikato building nicely for ITM Cup 

WAIKATO wing Frank Halai makes a break against Taranaki, with Tim Mikkelson in support. 

From page 14. 

After the success of 

last Wednesday’s match 

and last Monday’s 

school visits, Gibbes 

says the Waikato Rugby 

Union will certainly be 

looking to take more of 

their events out to the 

local clubs within the 

region. 

The coaching staff 

were understandably 

stoked with the effort of 

the Waikato team. 

‘‘To go from a tough 

loss to Auckland on Saturday 

night to a very 

physical, hard-fought 

win against Taranaki 

four days later shows 

that we have what it 

takes to handle the short 

turn around this season, 

and the ability to field a 

competitive team week 

228855AA 

in, week out,’’ says 

Gibbes. 

Stand outs for Waikato 

were former All 

Black openside flanker 

Marty Holah, in his first 

game since May for the 

Ospreys in Wales, 

destructive No. 8 Alex 

Bradley who scored a 

brace of tries, New Zealand 

Sevens stars Declan 

O’Donnell and Frank 

Halai in the threequarters, 

and the second 

half replacement pairing 

of halfback Tawera 

Kerr-Barlow and 

Stephen Donald. 

Skipper White 

anchored a Waikato 

scrum that often had 

Taranaki’s pack backpedalling, 

while his Te 

Awamutu Sports clubmate 

Chris Middleton 

Waikato Toyota 

WOF Specials 

$25 25 

Valid until July 29th 2011 

impressed locking the 

scrum, in the first half, 

with former Te Awamutu 

Gwynne Shield 

rep Toby Lynn. Both 

these locks worked 

tirelessly at set piece 

and in general play. 

Gibbes made changes 

to the pack at halftime 

without losing any 

momentum. 

The coach warns that 

Taranaki will be 

tougher when the two 

teams meet in round 

two, having spent little 

time working on their 

scrum to date. Following 

the game here, Waikato 

had another big week of 

training in preparation 

for their round one ITM 

Cup game against Southland 

in Invercargill on 

Friday.
