OPEN Upper Bank Street and looking GREAT!

Jane and her team at Molong's Flower Room have coped with the Molong Activation Plan works in Upper Bank Street. "The barricades are now down so you can see us, you can even drive right up to us and park outside. We are so excited to have our end of the street back again. Love to see everyone again."

Grateful for the opportunities to achieve and to do their best for their respective teams, sporting club and the towns they call 'home'. last weekend local and visiting families headed to Molong's Hunter Caldwell Park for their soccer games, and other locations for Magpies Junior Rugby. Pages 7, 14 & 15 for more photos and stories.

The first part of the Molong Activation Plan in Upper Bank Street is nearing completion and we must say is receiving positive comments. Trees have now been planted in the middle section of the road surrounded by paving and native grasses. A designated pedestrian/gopher/bike crossing is a welcomed safety addition - crossing from the Village Green to the Commonwealth Bank corner. Residents and business owners have concerns about the next stage of the street works in lower Bank Street causing disruptions to business, parking, street access etc. Well, in reality it is highly likely that such a works program will not be without disruptions of one kind or another. Or, even of most kinds. As a community of intelligent, progressive residents - let's keep going and look forward to the opportunities from such a program.

The steel mesh stairs were challenging in regard to safety, and being able to send groceries up to our kitchen. Thank you to Mary Mulhall (Molong’s gem) who helped us find the POD.”

Molong St. John’ Cadets - Learning Adventures Congratulations to Julie and Les Dean, the Burchetts, Betty Newstead and now the two former Cadets, Jade Kirk and Mitchell Cotter, who have returned to Molong to be part of the leaders team - and strive to keep the Molong St. John Cadets an important part of the local communities - and to benefit the young people/school students with skills building and knowledge, adventures, future professional careers and achieving ‘all rounder’ status in their lives. The Molong St. John Cadets, since the birth of the first group by former dedicated teacher/local resident/parent, Julie Dean - to today’s cadets - have been recognised Molong Cadets travelled to Blaxland for their Divisional Camp and to finish their Fire Safety Badge course. Part of the program included a visit to the Fire Museum at Penrith. There is an impressive display of old and new fire equipment, but I would not like to be the cleaner who has the task of keeping the shiny brass and red vehicles spotless and the glass in all displays free of fingerprints. Why are Dalmatian dogs associated with Fire Stations? Cadets also played laser tag, ten pin bowling and put- put golf at Penrith. On Saturday evening Benjamin McClure

NSW Deputy Commissioner - Youth and Matthew Griffiths NSW Residential Camps and Activities Coordinator visited the camp and were very impressed with the Molong Cadets and the activities they had been working on. Jade Kirk and Mitchell Cotter are to be commended on the assistance given to the Cadets over the weekend to complete all activities. A visit to the Glenbrook Fire Station was an adventure for the Cadets. They were shown through the Fire and Rescue equipment by the 4 retained Officers.

for their loyalty, committment, team building/skills and outdoor training/skills building have also been recognised for the good behaviour of the cadets and leadership teams. This recent visit to Blaxland and Penrith was for some cadets, their first time away from home. They behaved with interest, curiousity, a willingness to learn, manners and respect. Well done! Molong and your towns and villages are very proud of each of you - and your achievements.

MOLONG EXPRESS, Thursday 22 June 2023

One fact they learnt was in relation to Fire Hydrants on the footpath in urban areas. Where are they and how can you find them? These are important if you have a fire emergency. Do you let the grass grow over them and mow it, so it all looks nice or do you park your car on top of them? The electricity or light pole nearby will give you the clues you need if ever you have to utilize the water supply. Primary markers are found on power / light poles and face directly towards the hydrant. These plates can have the letters H, P or R stamped on them and a series of numbers. The letters stand for: H – hydrant; P – pathway; R – road Primary indicator plates are marked with two sets of numbers. The top number

gives the distance (in metres) from the plate to the hydrant and the bottom number gives the size (in millimetres) of the water main. A black line horizontal through the middle of the marker indicates that the hydrant is located across the road. Secondary markers can be found on power poles or marks on paths and roadways.These markers indicate the presence of a primary marker or a hydrant located adjacent to by the blue marker or on the other side by the green ‘H’ marker. Additionally, white or yellow triangles or arrows may be painted on roads, or blue markers may be fixed to the road to one side of the centre line. Hydrant cast iron cover may also be painted yellow.

The General Store - Cumnock

Cabonne towns and villages have often marvelled at the community energy and passion that comes forward when the residents of the village of Cumnock experiences any kind of downturn. Once a village of a number of small businesses, including The General Store, Cumnock experienced the same decline as experienced across Cabonne Shire area, country towns of NSW and Australia. Drought, economic downturns, families leaving to find employment and the list of reasons for the decline of rural villages and towns continues - and will continue. However, not in Cumnock - the village of passion where residents come together to work together - and live by the saying “never, ever, give up”. With current owners of the Cumnock General Store, Paula and Peg Rudd signalling their need to retire - the community came together to figure out what would happen if a new owner/investor did not come along to answer the Rudd family’s ‘For Sale’ intentions. The last remaining ‘shop’ and traditional community ‘meeting place’ could simply not close. Already the local pub had closed, followed by the courthouse take-away. “Not the general store - no way” said a group of local women entrepreneurs who came forward from the village, the farming/grazier district, the school, pre-

school, sporting groups etc. They represent new and successful initiatives in Cumnock to build onto the traditional projects that have held the village together - including the Cumnock Markets, the Animals on Bikes sculpture trail, Rent a Farmhouse, Cumnock Progress Association, Cumnock Pre-School, Cumnock Public School, the sporting clubs including the bowling club, golf club, swimming club, tennis/squash club, little athletics club, local fire brigades and rural fire brigades, not forgetting CWA and the long list goes on of how this community and their village has stayed alive. Not forgetting the Cumnock Show committee who have built a fabulous community structure and caravan park on their wellkept and maintained site. The Long White Lunch has been one of the most significant successes in the village drawing hundreds of people dressed in white to a special once a year long lunch where the best in country foods are served together with local wines and the opportunity to draw ‘lunchers’ to their town during the annual Orange Food Week. From the Long White Lunch these clever women have banded together to keep their General Store going. They found an investor to buy the building and

grounds, and raised some $160,000 in a remarkably short period to help purchase the business as a community owned venture - via $1,000 purchase of shares. It will be interesting to see what they will do with the large premises, a delightful relic of past times where a country rural store would stock everything from groceries, to stock food, paint brushes, clothing, vegie peelers, sharp knives to colanders ... work wear, shoes, boots, newspapers and Arnott’s biscuits served from a tin. What will The General Store look after these clever investors add their ideas? It’s sure to be amazing. Currently Expressions of Interest are being sought (see advertisement below) for what is sure to be an amazing employment opportunity for a Manager. Already what strikes the eye and mind - is the fairness, the pleasant and honest approach of the organisers in finding the right person for the role. One that will be looked after extremely well. The Express will keep in touch with the Cumnock General Store entrepreneurs to follow what is a unique and fascinating journey happening in Cabonne Country.

Imagine the outcry if factories killed as many people as wood heaters

Imagine a fleet of ageing factories operating in neighbourhoods across Australia. On most days the smoke from their stacks is hardly noticed. But on cold days when the smog settles in the densely populated valleys and towns, doctors notice unusually high numbers of people suffering from a range of problems, especially asthma. Air-quality researchers are called in to study the problem in more detail. They confirm that neighbourhoods with these old factories have higher concentrations of fine particles, which are toxic air pollutants. Invisible to the naked eye, particles are inhaled deep into the lungs, enter the bloodstream and cause a range of harms throughout the body. This air pollution is linked to higher rates of heart and lung diseases, strokes, dementia and some cancers. It also increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and poorer learning outcomes in children. The researchers calculate that each year pollution from the factories causes 269 premature deaths in Sydney, 69 in Tasmania and 14 in Armidale, New South Wales. While the factories are supposed to be built, maintained and operated to certain standards, the regulations are rarely if ever enforced. There isn’t even a central register to tell authorities how many of these factories exist, how old they are, and where they are located. As news of this research is made public, how would the affected communities react? What might they demand of government? Would it matter if they knew we were not talking about factories, but wood heaters?

As news of this research is made public, how would the affected communities react? What might they demand of government? Would it matter if they knew we were not talking about factories, but wood heaters?

Heaters pollution

produce

much

our

air

Every sentence of this story is true if you replace the word “factory” with “wood heater”. Less than 10% of households own a wood heater, but burning wood for heating is the largest source of air pollution in many Australian cities and towns. While

means, for every unit of energy they consume, they generate up to six units of heating energy

vehicle manufacturers and industry have greatly reduced emissions following tightened government regulations, domestic heating technology has not kept pace. Today you would have to drive a diesel truck 500 kilometres to emit as much air pollution as a wood heater does in a single day. And that figure is for a wood heater that meets the current regulatory standards in Australia. Most do not. Furthermore, wood heater pollution can be many times more severe when owners leave logs to smoulder overnight, burn poorly seasoned wood, or close down the air intake immediately after loading more wood. Of course, particulate pollution is not all that wood heaters emit. When firewood is sourced from land clearing and illegal wood hooking, wood heaters add to net carbon dioxide and methane emissions in much the same as burning coal does because the carbon is no longer locked away in forests. The best estimates are that less than a quarter of firewood is sourced from sustainable plantation suppliers. Even from those sources, the carbon emissions take many years to be sequestered into growing trees. One study estimated that, if we stopped burning wood and clearing forest for heating, Australia would reduce its annual greenhouse gas emissions by 8.7 million tonnes. That’s about one-fifth of Australia’s car emissions.

Making the switch As people learn about the impacts of wood heaters on their neighbours, friends and relatives — on pregnant women, young children and the elderly — many will make the switch. Governments need to ensure safe and affordable heating technology is available to everyone regardless of their income. Already, governments in the Australian Capital Territory, Tasmania and New Zealand have programs that reimburse households for the cost of replacing their wood heaters. Buy-back schemes, home efficiency subsidies, regulation and enforcement, including property market regulation (ensuring wood heaters are removed prior to sale), and restrictions on new installations all have a role to play. We are conducting economic modelling to determine the most cost-effective policy settings for maximising the benefits of policies to manage the problem of wood heaters. Fire and smoke will remain important experiences for Australians. They can be savoured primarily outside the city, under bright stars, in open deserts and rugged coastlines, in beach shacks and farm cottages, and as part of Indigenous cultural practices. One day we will look back in amazement that we once tolerated wood heaters in our cities, right next to schools, homes and hospitals. We’ll regard them in much the same way that we think of polluting factories today.

The benefits of electrification

Inevitably, as Australia moves towards a zero-carbon future, the electrification of domestic heating will bring widespread health and economic benefits. It will prevent hundreds of premature deaths each year. Hospitals will benefit from a reprieve in the cooler months, enabling doctors and nurses to better cope with seasonal pneumonia and COVID-19 outbreaks. And even those outbreaks will be less severe with reduced air pollution. Besides being healthier, Australians will enjoy much lower heating costs as a result of using technologies such as reverse-cycle air conditioners (heat pumps). Remarkably, heat pumps are up to 600% efficient. That

JUNIOR SOCCER

Molong's U7 Owls & U10 Galahs- Great Play

Despite a very frosty start to the morning, we were once again fortunate to host another round of home games at Hunter Caldwell on a lovely, sunny day. Lots of excitement building up to this round, with many of our MDSC teams having the chance to play against each other. MDSC teams all played well, displayed great club spirit and genuinely enjoyed putting on a great

performance for the keen spectators. The canteen helpers were kept busy, the BBQ ran non-stop, and there was a steady stream of players and spectators enjoying the convenience of on-site coffee and hot chocolates from the mobile coffee cart. It was wonderful to put our gazebos up for the first time. We are so pleased to have these within the club. Once

Fortress Hunter Caldwell greeted the early morning ground staff with a frost coated field. The morning sun melted away the frost and set the scene for a great mornings football. The under 10 Galahs took on CYMS Gold in front of an ever-growing crowd who knew where to come and watch some amazing grass roots football. Everyone was on their game. Harrison backed up last weeks player of the week performance with more strong running in attack, A Abbygail and Jack Toynton ran their legs off in the mid field keeping us in great scoring postion. In goals both Arlow and Isaac kept the opposition scoring to a minium. Dax, Reba, Jacob and Ebony again showed what a good defensive line can do, keeping out the attack and making sure Tabitha, Mason and Jack Piggot got the ball through the mid field. Dustin had one of his best games, with strong passing, great ability to win the ball and all-round team work. The non-stop running and ability to find the back of the net saw young Gil Dowling score a game high 5 goals which helped secure a 6-2 victory for the Galahs. Jose got to present the player of the week award. There was some great football played, which was a pleasure to watch. Dustin Lawrence (below) was awarded Player of the Week. Dustin showed strong determination on the ball both in defence and attack. Coach Wade.

The Under 7 Powerful Owls played the Peewees in a local derby. A great fun game played with/against friends, with all kids giving it their best and showing their improved skills. The Peewees came away with the win on this occasion. Cumnock boys Mason Reynolds & Harrison Foster (right) were awarded Players of the week for their respective teams. Well done!

The U8 Cockatoos had a great match against Waratahs ‘Nashdale’, winning 8 nil, and nearly every player getting a goal!. Pippa Lawrence had a standout performance scoring two, and getting player of the week!.

REG’S BENCH My wife said to me "The two things I cook best are meatloaf and apple pie Which one is this I asked. A man walks into a bar. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a little man, maybe a foot tall, and a little piano. He puts them both on the bar and the little guy starts playing Mozart as the man orders his drink. The bartender says "I'm sure it's none of my business, but where did you find a little man who plays piano like that?" The guy says "There's a genie outside granting wishes, I bet he's still there if you hurry." The bartender runs outside, and moments later a bunch of ducks come in through the front door and start causing a big ruckus. The bartender says "You didn't tell me the genie was deaf, I asked for a million bucks, not a million ducks." The guy says Do you really think I asked for an eleven inch pianist?" I was driving down a dark lonely road one night when a saw an attractive woman hitchhiking on the side of the road. I stopped and picked her up and during the small talk I asked her what she did for a living. “I’m a witch.’ “A witch?’ “Yes.”

QUICK CROSSWORD

“You mean a witch like spells and turning people into frogs and that?” ‘Yup’ “I don’t believe you.” She slid across the bench seat in my truck, put her hand on the inside of my thigh, leaned over closer, pressing a firm breast against my arm and whispered in my ear, “I bet I can turn you into a motel…” My wife asked for some peace and quiet while she cooked dinner So I took the batteries out of the smoke alarm. Larry, the clumsy carpenter, was using his tablesaw and leaned in close to check he was following the line he had marked on the plank. ZANNGGG! His left ear gets neatly severed, tumbles through the air and lands in the pile of sawdust. Screaming in pain and panic, Larry drops to the ground, one hand pressed against his head and the other sifting through the sawdust. Joe, hearing the commotion, races over to help. When Larry tells him what happened, Joe starts searching too. Suddenly Joe pulls a bloody left ear from the sawdust, "Is this it Larry?", he asks. Larry takes a look and then goes back to searching. "Nah, mine had a pencil behind it."

Molong Magpies Walla – 18 June at Wellington The Molong Magpies Wallas made the journey to Wellington for a bitterly cold, frosted laden Rygate Oval in Wellington. U6 drew Mudgee and Wellington White, U8 Mudgee Red and Wellington Red, U10 Dubbo and Wellington Red. U6 This week saw the under 6s play back to back games in Wellington. Our young Magpies showcased their impressive skills and teamwork, ultimately securing a victory against Mudgee in their first match. The game saw a full bench for Molong, with a fantastic turnout of players eagerly taking to the field. It is worth mentioning that Paddy Murphy, Isaac Hobbs, Luke Mackenzie, Henry Welsh and Alex Barrett showed true sportsmanship once again by helping out Mudgee who were short on players. Their dedication and commitment to Mudgee, was evident as they played with great skill, contributing to Mudgee's scoring efforts. However, it was Molong who emerged as the winners, demonstrating their exceptional abilities throughout the match. The second game of the day saw Molong facing off against Wellington. Right from the start, Ollie Townsend made an outstanding catch off the Wellington kick-off, setting the stage for an exhilarating game. Our under 6s showcased their remarkable passing abilities, leading to numerous tries. The teamwork displayed on the field was truly exceptional, with a plethora of remarkable passes and impressive runs. Among the remarkable tries scored during the game, a standout moment belonged to Henry Welsh. Spotting a gap on the far wing, Welsh quickly capitalised on the opportunity, running across the field with precision before perfectly placing the ball down for a magnificent try. His skillful play left both spectators and even Welsh himself in awe, needing a moment to confirm

that the try was indeed valid after he had completed the kick-off. Quinn Butler, is this weeks "Player of the Day" for once again exhibiting her outstanding attitude and determination. With the biggest grin on her face, Butler proved to be a magnet for trouble on the field. In her position as the half-back this week, she consistently followed the ball and was always prepared to pick and pass. She ensured that her teammates were in the right positions before distributing the ball with precision. Looking ahead to the next game, the our under 6s have identified an area for improvement, and this week's focus will be on enhancing their two-handed tagging technique. By honing this fundamental skill, they aim to further strengthen their defensive capabilities and ensure a formidable performance in their upcoming matches. U10 The frost hardy Magpies relished the early morning game against the Dubbo Roos. The Magpies burst out of the blocks and through intensive counter rucking and superior ball skills, sent shockwaves through the confident Dubbo spectators. Jaxon Townsend and Torsten Ellis were excellent, putting in the hard yards around the park to lay a solid platform for the rest of their teammates. The Magpies had their tails up at half time and were not prepared for the return of fire that was to come from the Roos after half time. The Roos moved quickly to square up the scoreline. The Magpies responded accordingly and all parents and friends enjoyed watching two teams tussle it out with all their might, grit and determination. Bryson (who is Big and Bad), 'Mr Energy' Cooper and Tom 'The Rooster' showed great defence all game!

It wasn't long (about 3.5mins) before the Magpies were on the field again for game 2 against the host team, the Wellington Redbacks. The Magpies showed excellent stamina and concentration for the entire duration of this game and the team is to be commended for their mighty effort! The Magpies are improving so much week to week and one aspect of that is a strong realisation about how important it is for us to retain the ball. Hard work from the forward pack (Jaxon and Torsten must take a bow again) allowed the rest of the team to shine. Hunter Roberts is evolving as a well rounded player and showed great vision and maturity with his passing and running options in both games. Hunter accepted a well earned player of the day. Guy Shannon consistently made crunching tackles, retrieved unretrievable balls from any ruck and put his head down and pumped his legs when solid meters were needed. Guy was awarded toughest player of the day. Well done to the Mighty U10s Magpies - every week you turn up, do your best and make yourselves, your parents and Molong very proud! . A recap of the legendry Players of the Gala Day were: U6 Quinnie Butler U8 Lewis Elliott with Max Garlic ‘Best Magpie’ U10 Hunter Roberts with Guy Shannon ‘Toughest Player” Thankyou again to Wellington for hosting the day. Next week sees the club travelling to Emus on Sunday 25 June 2023 and supporters are always welcome. The Magpie

Molong Golf

Sport

by the Ghost Walker Just the usual suspects at the Royal Molong Golf Course on Sunday for golf. Stubba and Bell, Mark ‘Bro’ Oates, Scott Oates, Matt Philpott, Steven Ball, Mark Frazer and Myself. Weather wise it was quite pleasant with the sun out but of course the cloud came across and a breeze came up and made it a bit chilly. Bro declared from the outset that he wasn’t playing an ambrose event. The others could but he needed to concentrate on playing his own shots. We played a twelve hole stableford event although our group thought it was just a stroke event. So how did Bro go playing his own shots? Well, he lost one golf ball over the fence behind the green on the first hole. He lost a second golf ball when he hit the branch in front of the eighth tee for the second week running. The ball slammed into the branch and where it went nobody knows.We had a good look but couldn’t find it. As for his scoring. There were two nines on his scorecard (one was actually an eleven but sometimes we don’t count past nine) and one par on the fourth hole. That’s the only score he could remember after the game. Perhaps he thinks it’s more satisfying to be bad at golf because the worse he plays the better he remembers the occasional good shot. He’s going to continue to play his own game gain on Sunday. The rest of our group, Stubba, Bell and myself weren’t any better. Stubba again came up with the quote of the week, “if I didn’t play so any shots I might have parred a few holes.” I don’t know if a winner was declared but I think the other group played okay. I heard Matt’s name mentioned as hitting it well. I must have been busy enlightening Bro on where he went wrong.

Woodbridge Cup RL

MOLONG BOWLS Molong Bowling Club Roving Report Social bowls commenced on Sunday with 12 keen bowlers turning up. It was so good to hear laughter and lots of words of encouragement echoing around the greens. Most encouragement/ excitement award goes to Kerry Hicks. Andy did a few good shots and the accolades were amazing. We also welcomed new bowler Rodney – Danny’s dad from Wild Flower. Was great to see him come and have a roll up, Rodney will be one to watch in the future. Social bowls will continue every Sunday so if you would like to come over and have some laughs and roll up come on over. Cost is $10 this covers green fees and sausage sizzle. Goes from 11am to 2pm. Thanks to Janelle for running the bar, Brian for cooking BBQ, Gossie for rolling the greens, Rellie and Bob for weeding and prepping the gutters. It really is a team effort at the bowlo. The club would not be able to continue without our wonderful crew.

Golf again on Sunday, 8.30am for 9am. Being the last Sunday of the month the event is usually a eighteen hole stroke event but we’ll decide on the day what event will be played. Anyone and everyone is welcome to join us.

Thankyou all for your continued support. Wednesday social bowls is still running. Starts at 2pm, bar facilities available. There is a good crowd rolling up for this social event. If you have a spare few hours on a Wednesday afternoon, come on over and show them your style. We had our board meeting on Wednesday night. No new updates from the insurance company to date. We have had to get a new scope of works review done, hopefully in the coming weeks we might hear from them. With the winter cold setting in and big frosts the club championships have been pushed back to end of July. If any members have a spare 10 minutes on Sunday we are looking for muscles to help move our new play equipment back a metre. Time 1.30pm. Would be great to get some assistance with this please. That’s it from the club, stay warm and see you on the greens.

Manildra Rhinos League Tag and First Grade teams headed to Peak Hill last weekend. Unfortunately League Tag lost to Peak Hill with a close final score and a great game. Rhinos First Grade side saw a fantastic win and game against Peak Hill. Well done Manildra Rhinos Tag and First Grade
