Golden Bay’s family violence
statistics prompt new initiative
Organisations working against family
violence are concerned at the rising rates of
cases reported every year in New Zealand.
They say family safety is not an individual’s
or an organisation’s responsibility: the entire
community needs to be involved to combat
the epidemic.
Safe Families Golden Bay is a communityled initiative funded by Te Rito Nelson. It
aims to raise awareness of the family violence
in Golden Bay - and is saying that we all need
to pitch in if we want to see change.
When community worker Emma
Brazendale did a survey on family violence in
Takaka, she said the overwhelming response
from local residents was that people didn’t
believe family violence was of concern in
the area. According to Emma, people were
“stunned” when she recounted the local
statistics.
At least one incident of family violence is
reported in Golden Bay every week, which
according to Emma is a frightening prospect
when you consider how many family
members could be involved in each case.
Local data shows there were seven reported
incidents of family violence in Golden Bay
in July 2015, and six in August. At the end
of September there were a staggering six
reported incidents in that one week alone,
a figure expected to rise leading up to and
over Christmas.
Nationally, police investigated over
100,000 instances of domestic violence in
2014, according to statistics released by the
New Zealand Family Violence Clearinghouse
(NZFVC), a figure up from 95,000 the year
before. However, the It’s Not OK website and
Statistics New Zealand report that “Police
recorded a family violence investigation
on average every five-and-a-half minutes
in 2014…Only about 25 per cent of family
violence incidents are reported to Police.”
Says Emma: “We’re here to spread the
message that everyone needs to take it on as
their responsibility to talk about all forms of
family violence. Reach out and ask for help
if you see anything, or if you’re experiencing
family violence. It doesn’t matter who you
tell; just tell someone.”
Violence isn’t limited to physical abuse,
and includes sexual, financial, emotional
and psychological violence, and includes
neglect. The latter forms can be harder to
detect, says Safe Families project manager,
Abbie Langford. “And they often do the most
damage.”
According to Community Workers Services
manager Glynn Rogers, the rural nature of our
community means families may tend toward
concealment.
“People often believe they have a lot to
lose if it gets out,” says Glynn. “And living in
isolated areas makes it easier to hide what’s
going on. Starting to talk about it and seeking
help is often the beginning of a life-changing
journey.”
Glynn is passionate about getting the
message out to the community that family
violence is not OK and that there is a way for
people to change their behaviour. “There’s
no excuse for family violence,” says Glynn.
“However, they may not have the skills to do
Safe Families core group members, clockwise from top left: Emma Brazendale, Glynn Rogers,

something different and it may be to do with
the way they were brought up.”
Glynn says there are numerous resources
available to help both the victims and
perpetrators, and that it’s vital to seek help
before somebody gets arrested or seriously
hurt.
She has also worked with abused men.
“They too can become victims.”
Counsellor Simon Jones says that for
perpetrators, violence can be about seeking
to take control of their lives. Simon has been
working with men and in Stopping Violence
programmes for over 20 years. He is in the
planning stages of creating an ongoing weekly
men’s group. “We need more awareness and
help available for men, more networks and
support, as they are often the shyest people
to reach out for help.”
According to statistics, elder abuse and
neglect is also an epidemic and on the rise
in New Zealand. Research suggests one in 10
elderly may be subject to financial abuse in
their lives, and that in 75 per cent of reported
cases, the perpetrator is a family member – 50
per cent being adult children. “Elder abuse is
often unseen, and sometimes the only people
they see are those they receive support from,
making it much harder to report abuse,” says
Simon.
Emma stresses that although Safe Families
Golden Bay is based at the Community
Centre, it is an open and community-led
initiative. “We’ve got the funding and it’s
about the community deciding what they
want to do with it,” she said.
The core group of eight – which includes
Maureen Harte, Loretta Horton, Roger File
and Conny Schrader - has been meeting
monthly to discuss strategies. Abbie Langford
has been employed as the group’s project
manager. She was involved in Women’s
Refuge and the It’s Not OK campaign in
Christchurch for many years.
A logo competition has just opened to the
public and will close on October 31. Entry
forms will be sent out to schools and are also
available from the Community Workers, as
are details of the prize. Entrants are invited
to design a logo representing Safe Families
in Golden Bay, which will be owned by the
group who retain the rights to adjust the
winning logo as necessary.
A planned launch will raise the group’s
profile in the community and it will unveil
its new logo. It hopes to heighten awareness
by sponsoring a local sports team (and one
is interested). Another idea is to publish the
local family violence statistics on a weekly or
monthly basis in The GB Weekly.
Keep an eye out for more details of the
logo competition and events planned by Safe
Families Golden Bay.
“And never be afraid to seek help or offer
help if you believe either you, or someone
else, is the victim of family violence,”
concludes Emma.
Nina Hindmarsh
*Domestic violence takes many forms
It involves abusive or intimidating
behaviour carried out by a partner,
friend or family member to control,
dominate or make you feel afraid.
The violence doesn’t have to be physical
- it can be emotional, psychological,
financial or sexual, or it can be threats
to abuse you in any of these ways.
If you or your children are experiencing
any domestic violence,
you need to get help.

At 10am on the 10th day of
the 10th month, Collingwood
artist NgAngA will throw
open the doors of his Tasman
Street gallery to reveal a
collection of new paintings.
The works have been
created for NgAngA’s
Collingwood and Beyond
show. The exhibition features
people and places within
or around the historic
township.
“For me, ‘beyond’ is from
Parapara, up to Bainham,
out to Wharariki and over to
Westhaven,” says the artist.
The exhibits take the viewer
on a journey, in oil, pastel
and watercolour, through
many of these vivid land- and
seascapes. Subjects include
a flock of spoonbills, a herd
of Jersey cows at Pakawau
and the formations of Mount
Burnett and Archway Island.
Whether representational,
impressionist or abstract,
the paintings ooze affection
for the people and their
surroundings. “It reflects my
love for the community and
the area.”
NgAngA says his move to
Collingwood late last year
inspired him to pick up his
palette and mix his oil paints
after a relatively dormant
period.
After being embraced by
the community, the artist is
repaying the favour. “For the
first seven days, all new art
in the exhibition will be at
mates’ rates – 50 per cent off.
And then it will be at ‘Golden
Bay rates’ – 25 per cent off
NgAngA puts the finishing touches on a new work for his exhibition. Photo: Jo Richards.
until the 1 January. It’s my
way of supporting locals.”
NgAngA has supported
fellow artists from the day
his gallery opened - helping
them avoid commercial rates
by selling their work on a
koha commission basis. The
democratic painter is also
sharing his award-winning
talent, bringing art to the
people and holding regular
classes for those keen to have
a go. “Master classes are on
Tuesdays and beginners are
on Thursdays.”
He’s happy to teach all
ages and abilities – from
Takaka preschoolers to the
mature ladies of Pakawau
Rural Women – and says
he always gets results. “I
guarantee to get people
painting.” The evidence is
on display in the window
of his gallery; a dozen
pastel portraits of Vincent
van Gogh, drawn in the
style of the great master, by
NgAngA’s novices. “It was
their first-ever portrait.”
Clearly enthusiastic about
infecting locals with his
love of painting, NgAngA
also hopes to spread his
message to those beyond
Collingwood. “I’m thinking
about offering art classes to
visitors and tourists – a oneday class that will give them
the painting bug for life.”
In the meantime, the artist
is busy putting the finishing
touches to his new exhibits.
If everything goes according
to plan, he’s likely to be busy
every spring: “Collingwood
and Beyond will be an
annual event, opening on the
10th day of the 10th month
every year.”
Collingwood and
Beyond opens at 10am on
Saturday 10 October at
NgAngART, Tasman Street,
Collingwood.

Work to improve safety at the intersection of Abel Tasman
Drive and Motupipi Street in Golden Bay has begin.
The work will replace the existing roundabout to allow
traffic travelling on Motupipi Street to turn freely on to Abel
Tasman Drive. Traffic travelling from Meihana Street and
Factory Road will be required to give way under the new
layout. New kerb and channel and raised traffic islands will
be installed on Meihana Street.
As well as making the intersection safer, the work will also
allow for the footpath on Abel Tasman Drive to be extended
along Motupipi Street.
There will be some disruption to traffic travelling along
this route while the work is carried out over several weeks,
and motorists should expect minor delays. Fulton Hogan
is carrying out the works on behalf of the Tasman District
Council.

The GB Weekly, Friday 9 OCTOBER 2015
Visit and talk by world leaders in rites of passage
Teenagers. Aren’t they the most wonderful, creative,
infuriating, and complex beings on the planet? Full of energy,
optimism and potential, they go full-steam ahead towards
adulthood.
Sometimes, however, during the transition from boy to
man or from girl to woman, things go a bit off track. Keeping it
all on the rails is a challenge that every parent faces, but there
is help out there; increasingly it’s recognised that a conscious
rite of passage can safely guide teens on their journey from
adolescent to responsible young adult.
The alternative is not good. As an old African proverb
warns: “If we do not initiate the young, they will burn down
the village to feel the heat.”
Through its Tracks and Tides programmes, the Rites of
Passage Foundation (ROPF) has been initiating our teenagers
and safeguarding the village for years. The local organisation
is part of a growing worldwide movement doing similar good
work. On Monday 12 October, two of the leading lights in
this global network, Frederick Marx and Dr Arne Rubenstein,
will be in the Bay to present a unique one-off event for those
parenting their teenagers “Across the Fire”.
ROPF founder Jim Horton believes the Bay is privileged
to be hosting these top names.
“These men are international leaders in their fields and are
combining strengths to create this very special evening.”
Academy-nominated filmmaker Frederick Marx promises
to be a fascinating speaker. He is currently making a 90minute feature-length documentary about the importance of
healthy rites of passage and mentorship for teens transitioning
to adulthood. The project reflects his commitment to the
cause.
“My belief is that every teen, deep in their bones, knows
they deserve healthy, not destructive, rites of passage and
mature adult mentorship.”
The evening’s other star contributor, Dr Rubinstein, is an
expert on adolescent development, with 30 years’ experience
as a doctor, counsellor, mentor and workshop facilitator.
His programmes and seminars are designed to make the
transition from child to young adult both safe and healthy,
with a particular focus on coming-of-age rites of passage. His
book The Making of Men is a practical handbook for parents
and teachers.
While in the Bay, the two presenters will assist Jim with
the launch of his own book.
“It’s a compilation of true experiences that capture the
mysteries and magic of rites of passage,” explains Jim. “I
started writing my story and sent it out to a dozen other
people around the world, saying ‘write about your rites’.”
What came back, he says, was profound. “There are some
very deep personal stories.” When his Book of many Voices
is published, Jim hopes it will inspire and empower readers.
“It will be a manual about how to do rites of passage.”
Boys to men: New young men return at the end of their Tracks event. Two international leaders in the field are speaking about
rites of passage in Takaka next week. Photo: Jo Richards.
Drawing upon his extensive knowledge and experience,
Jim reasons that the nature of the rite determines the quality
of the passage. “Everyone has multiple rites of passage,
but it’s important that it’s conscious, acknowledged and
recognised.”
Parenting Teenagers “Across the Fire”. Presented by Dr
Arne Rubinstein and Frederick Marx on Monday Oct 12 at
6.30pm, Golden Bay High School. Admission: Koha.

Duke of Edinburgh/Hillary Awards
The article submitted by Debby Smith (GBW 2/10) - Tony
and Ann’s grandchildren make history - I’m sure everyone
will agree that it’s great to see our young people obtaining
these levels of confidence, but one must also think of the
many unpaid volunteers who supervise and judge the
many activities that are involved in firstly the bronze medal
certificate, then the silver medal cretificate and finally the
gold certificate and medal.
We just want to publicly thank those unknown people
who, throughout New Zealand, make this possible and,
naturally, the Duke of Edinburgh and Hillary Commission.

Transition to school
Specials valid 9 October to 18 October
Kia ora koutou. Thank you for this opportunity to clarify
some of the points reported in The GB Weekly (25/9) on
the topic of transition to school. Whilst it is great to see this
topic getting press, there were a number of inaccuracies that
I believe are important to set straight.
The literature shows that making friends in the classroom
is the most salient feature in academic success, but having an
interest in symbols (letters and numbers) is also an important
factor. Whilst social connections are greatly important to some
children, there are also children who experience success by
being introverted, and that is fine. The idea of cultural capital
is a sociological take on the simple economic idea of capital,
it is useful as a metaphor for transitions because it reminds
us that early childhood services and schools need to work
together to ensure children feel that their experiences are
relevant in both settings.
Finally, New Zealand is one of three countries in the
OECD where children begin school on their fifth birthday;
this is largely cultural and may change as the Education Act is
updated over the coming year. For those interested in reading
more, I suggest visiting the ERO website and taking a look at
the 2015 national report on continuity of learning.

The last few years have witnessed a loss of control of
governance by our elected councillors. TDC statistics state
we give 80 per cent of our requests, problems, and decision
making direct to staff. Only nine per cent of us take our
concerns to councillors. This leaves them out of the loop of
our issues. By default we are giving more power and control
of our lives to staff and less to our representatives. Thus the
expression “the tail wagging the dog”.
Our councillors are becoming servants of the staff. This is
role reversal. Councillors are responsible for policy planning
and governance, overseeing our community where we can
work and play, in the pursuit of happiness. We have allowed
this role reversal by not empowering our elected members
and not involving them in our daily concerns or issues.
It appears impossible to hold staff to account for their
actions. They have life careers in the public service and job
security.
Our councillors are unable to absorb all the complex LGA
rules and procedures in which staff are trained. This produces
a we know better than you attitude. This inhibits councillors
from being the bosses of staff.
Next year we must elect councillors willing to take control
of governance, bringing power, control, respect and service
over that of staff. Those who stand to serve us must have the
courage to change the current culture. “They that pay the
piper, call the tune.“ We are they.

Smart meters
Nelson Mail (2/10/15) ran another smart-meter whitewash
blurb from Network Tasman’s Wayne Mackey.
He infers again that smart-meters are the only meters which
can be certified as accurate. In fact, all analogue meters are
certified at production point and, like smart-meters, need to
be recertified every 15 years. If your analogue meter is close
to, or older than, 15 years you should be given the option of
an analogue replacement.
If you have a computer and the online tool, the smart-meter
can tell you to stay cold, eat raw or hot-wash only your hands,
because on that cold day, around dinner time, or when the
kids return from muddy sport, your power usage is higher.
If you need the help of your computer, rather than guessing,
won’t you then be using even more electricity?
Surely the responsibility lies with the power companies
to be less greedy in their pricing and more understanding in
human well-being. Modern society relies more and more on
electricity (eg heat pumps not wood burners) and a limited
budget should not mean limited healthiness.
Wayne claims Network Tasman “exists for the benefit
of the consumers”; that’s Contact Energy and other power
companies, not you and me.

Golden Bay Gives Back
Golden Bay Gives Back is now formally operating thanks
to generous donations from The Lions Club, Trash Palace
and Fresh Choice, as well as money left over from our variety
concert earlier this year.
We aim to assist families who have children or adolescents
requiring regular trips over the Hill for a medical condition.
Our assistance is in the form of petrol vouchers. Families
can contact us directly to see if they fit our criteria, or we
may have referrals from GPs, Well Child nurse, etc. We will
maintain confidentiality at all times as we believe this to be
of upmost importance to families.
Any organisation wishing to donate to us please contact
us, details below, also we would like to hold a variety concert
again early next year, any entertainers wishing to partake,
please contact us.

Thanking the universe
A paper hot-air balloon propelled by a naked flame, landed
in a tree close to a wooden house in Onekaka last week. It
had a message written on it, giving thanks to the universe.
Do you think it would make more sense to give thanks to
the One who made the universe? I hope you’d thank your
mother for knitting you a pair of socks rather than talking to
the socks.
Would you please join me in thanking the Father of our
Lord Jesus Christ that nothing and no-one suffered damage this
time, and would you please take great care with any future
endeavours in your life?

Golden Bay Arts Council’s arts worker Sarah Kaye, with works from the Art Bank’s latest exhibition.
A previous manager of The Village Theatre, Sarah Kaye,
is stepping into the arts worker role for the Golden Bay Arts
Council, recently held by Georgina West.
Sarah managed the theatre for 10 years. She has also been
the treasurer for the arts committee, but admits she’s not
much of an artist.
“I’m a businessperson, and the focus of the arts worker is
more behind the scenes.”
Committee member Grant Knowles says that the fact she’s
not an artist is a strength.
“She has bought to the job a very sound business model,
in that she’s very good at the financial and business stuff normally the things artists are useless at!” laughs Grant.
In her new role as arts worker, Sarah will tend to the business
and administrative side of the Arts Council’s dealings. She is
its spokesperson for information and upcoming events, and

is the first point of contact for funding applications through
Creative Communities.
Sarah says she’s excited about some of the upcoming
events, such as Bay Art. “It’s really starting to get amped up
now, and we want to remind everyone to submit their pieces
on 22 October.”
Young@Art will open at the Art Bank on Labour Weekend,
and a life-drawing course still sits in the pipeline. Sarah says
the current exhibition at Art Bank, the last of the four winter
exhibitions, reflects people’s interpretations of Kiwi cleverness
and ingenuity. It is open until October 19, and also features
a special guest exhibition of Geoff Heath’s work.
Sarah will be working every Thursday at the Art Bank. Keep
an eye out for details about two special Art Bank exhibitions
in November, before the busy summer season starts up.

Crawford Agri Services has added a purposebuilt and designed JCB Agricultural loader to
the fleet for the upcoming silage season. The
JCB is weighing in at 13 tonne which will be
sure to compact and expel any air in the pit
or bun. Being purpose-built it will climb and
manoeuvre over the pit/bun efficiently leaving
Crawford Agri Services (CAS) will be operating 2 silage harvesters with
intention to be harvesting your silage on time to maximise quality. To make this
possible we are running a Pottinger mower with a grouper, where possible,
cut out a pass with our Claas Rake. Our cartage work will continue to be
carried out by Solly’s Transport. We will work together to ensure we provide
a cost-effective and quality service.
CAS is also pleased to announce we will be able to cater to your silage cover
needs for the 2015/2016 season. We are offering top quality high micron
sheeting that is stretch and puncture resistant. Being able to cut the cover
to size eliminates the part-used expensive rolls sitting in the shed. CAS will
open the cover and pin it at the base before heading for the next job. We
will be offering 2 sizes to accommodate the smaller pits and also the larger
pits and buns.
We look forward to working with you all over the coming season.
Please don’t hesitate to be in touch with either myself of Danny to discuss
your needs further.

Propagating your own seedlings doesn’t take much extra
work - just a little preparation.
It all starts with the seed. Save seed from plants that have
grown well, ideally over several seasons, and so are adapted
to our particular climate. The next best choice is seeds saved
in New Zealand by Koanga and Eco Seeds. Big guys like
Kings Seeds, Yates and McGregors have more variety but
also imported lines. Choose to suit your needs (heirloom,
F1, compact varieties, etc).
Next, use suitable seed-raising and potting mixes. Either
buy a pre-made mix like Daltons or Tui, or make your own
using good compost, coarse sand and broken-down seagrass
or peat. Mix ingredients in equal parts in a wheelbarrow.
Keep it moist. Ideally, your homemade compost has been
hot-composted and turned several times to minimise weeds
and diseases. Leaf mould compost is another option, and
bark-based composts like Flourish or Greenwaste to Zero
are good too. Some people heat small quantities of mix to
sterilize it for seedbeds.
Now you need a container with drainage holes. Small
punnets work well, or pots. Rule of thumb: Cover seeds with
mix one to three times the depth/size of the seed, EXCEPT
those seeds that need some light to germinate (lettuce, dill,
some peppers).
Tomatoes. For saved tomatoes you’ve squished onto a
piece of tissue, add moisture and put on a plate in the hot
water cupboard. Or put the tissue or commercial seeds in a
punnet of mix, then cover with finely sieved compost. Firm
down with a brick or another punnet/pot. Add water and
place a piece of wet newspaper over the top. Cover with clear
plastic to keep warmth and moisture in. Put in the hot water
cupboard or on a heat mat. Later in spring they will germinate
well in a hothouse, cold frame or just on the windowsill.
Check daily and mist with water if dry. If they dry out they
won’t germinate. Once the first true leaf unfolds, they can be
pricked out. This involves loosening the seedling with a small
knife, large nail, etc. Carefully pick them up individually and
plant (root downwards!) into about 5mm potting mix in a pot
to grow them on. To plant, make a hole with your finger and
drop the roots down so the leaf growing point is level with
the top of the pot. Avoid handling the roots. Hold the leaf
and completely fill with mix, then firm it down using four
fingers around the seedling and a single good push. Water
gently and put in hothouse or warm, light spot.
Always handle all seedlings by the leaves, not the stem.
A broken leaf can regrow; a stem won’t. If you’re a smoker,
it’s very important to wear gloves. Nicotine can harm young
seedlings. Tobacco can also transfer a virus to Solanaceous
plants.
Cucumbers. The same procedure works with cucumbers,
but the bigger seeds can be sown directly into pots for growing
on before planting. I use more of a potting mix, ie less sand,
and also cover them with moist paper and plastic.

A friend, Avner Cain, germinates his cucumbers (and the
rest of the Cucurbit family, eg pumpkins) by putting seeds in
moist tissue and into a plastic bag in a hot water cupboard.
Germinated individual seeds are transferred with care into
pots.
Note: Overwatering or poor drainage kills young
cucumber seedlings.
Brassicas. Sow brassica seeds like tomatoes, though they
don’t need extra heat. Once a true leaf shows they can be
pricked out into punnets, preferably with larger cells than the
standard sixer punnets cells. Adding a little blood and bone
and seaweed to the potting mix can reduce later problems.
During spring and summer, spraying young seedlings with
Bt gets them resisting cabbage moth larvae. Stress from lack
of water or very low temperatures can cause brassicas to bolt
early after planting.
Remember to label seedlings, especially if you grow
several varieties.
Seedling care. Overwatering young seedlings causes
fungal rots. Often the surface mix looks dry, but do check
with a finger first. If you plan to grow them to maturity in
pots (eg tomatoes), repot them before they get rootbound. I
recommend adding compound NZ Fertiliser mix and a dash
of dolomite to the potting mix, and liquid fertilising with
seaweed for added health and strength.

Annual Farewell Spit cleanup
gathers 280kg of rubbish
The Marine Farming
Association, in conjunction
with the Department of
Conservation (DOC), spent
three days during winter
scouring Farewell Spit in
an effort to keep its natural
environments free from
a buildup of waste and
rubbish.
Takaka’s DOC manager,
Andrew Lamason, explains
that as a nature reserve, the
spit has the highest level of
conservation protection.
“The shape and location
of Farewell Spit means that
anything dropped at sea in
the Bay or coming out of the
Takaka and Collingwood
rivers can wash up on the
shore. It isn’t only the marine
operators who need to take
responsibility: it’s all of us.
Anything that can blow away
into a river or stream or is
dropped on the beach could
well end up on the Spit.”
Environ-mentor for marine
farming, Darren Clarke, says
the spit is included in a
general annual cleanup that
takes place across the Top of
the South.
Darren explains that
all companies involved in
fisheries (for example Talleys,
King Salmon and Sanfords)
pay a levy that allows the
association’s environmental
committee to continue its
work.

vehicles…and we ensure that all barges
have rubbish bins on board.” Environmental
awareness workshops are part of the industry’s
educational efforts.
The yearly sweep involves the use of quad
bikes and a trailer, though the majority of
the work is done on foot, Darren says. This
year, a team of five spent evenings in the
DOC house on the spit, and during the days
gathered 280kg of general rubbish.
“We keep a log which documents the
percentages of things found, so we can
analyse who the main polluters are in order
to try and improve our work habits all the
time.”
Fifty-seven mussel floats were also
recovered during the cleanup. There is a
retrieval bounty - a reward paid to the collector
for returning floats. The environmental team
recovers $10 per float from the mussel float
owner (whose identification is branded on
each float). The float money collected from
the clean-up is being donated to GBHS
aquaculture academy.
Andrew Lamason says the loss of
mussel buoys is inevitable in such a harsh
environment. “It’s good that these can be
reused or recycled but the rubbish that
accumulates is largely avoidable.
“It’s great that Darren and his team
undertakes this work each year and helps us
to preserve this area.”

Rembrandt Remastered
October marks the 10th anniversary of the Nelson
Provincial Museum moving from Isel Park to the Nelson
CBD. As a gift from the museum to the residents of Nelson
and Tasman, an exhibition of 57 life-sized Rembrandt
reproductions, that have been digitally remastered, will be
on display across the Museum and the Suter Art Gallery until
15 November.
“Life etches itself onto our faces as we grow older showing
our violence, excesses or kindnesses.” - Rembrandt.
Entry is free to all local residents thanks to the generosity
of Nelson Pine Industries Ltd.
Whale oil be blowed!
They’re fizzing! Golden Bay Museum Te Waka Huia o
Mohua has just received news that Alan McLean’s whale
preparation project has been awarded more than $17,000
from Pub Charity. That will cover all costs of the whale
skeleton preparation, right through to display in mid-2016. It’s
come on top of news of a Network Tasman grant for Alan’s
electricity costs.
“It’s just wonderful to know that Alan’s patient commitment
has received this recognition,” says museum board chair
Penny Griffith. “Now there’s just $60,000 to find for the
whalery to house it!”.
Poetry Slam @ Live Poets
Live Poets this month, at the Mussel Inn on Thursday 15
October, hosts Poetry Slam heats.
In a Poetry Slam the audience is an integral part of the
show. Their response to the performance of each poet – what
they are saying and how they are saying it – gives the judges
their cue and affects the score they are given. So we want to
get as many out to participate as we can.
Christina Gurrola, a talented singer-songwriter from the
USA, will be the special guest at the Golden Bay Slam event.
She will open the evening at 7.30pm with a short set featuring
songs from her recently released debut EP Dawn Medley.
Christina is currently turning heads at venues across New
Zealand with a voice and style that is being described as
“Norah Jones meets Amy Winehouse”. Big boots to fill there,
but it sounds like we are in for a treat.

Collingwood campground benefits
The sale of a council-owned cottage in Collingwood’s
William Street is planned to help pay for much-needed
improvements to the Collingwood Motor Camp.
A TDC press release says that urgent work to bring the
campground’s gas, electrical and water infrastructure up to
standard was completed earlier this year. Future improvements
planned for the campground include the construction of more
cabins, a new toilet and shower block, and the replacement
of stormwater, wastewater and water supply pipes.
The work is estimated to cost between $400,000 and
$500,000. To help offset some of this cost, council has put
the cottage up for sale. It is currently used as additional
campground accommodation.
The building was sold to the Golden Bay County Council
in 1940 for £20 to use for the benefit of the community.
The cottage itself also needs some work. Rather than
putting more money into upgrading this building, it was
decided to allow a new owner to give it the love it needs
while generating funds for the campground.
Arts Festival comes to the Bay
Comedian, actor and
playwright Arthur Meek
made Golden Bay audiences
guffaw in Richard Meros
Salutes the Southern Man
and took Helen Clark as his
young lover in a previous Arts
Festival.
After winning hearts and
swinging voters in New York,
Arthur Meek’s over-educated
under-achieving character Richard Meros BA is heading back
to the Bay with On the Conditions and Possibilities of Hillary
Clinton taking me as her Young Lover, on at the Village
Theatre, Friday 16 October at 8pm.
New York Magazine described the show as “demented
and hilarious”. Nelson Arts Festival Programmer Charlie
Unwin says New Zealand audiences will also find this kiwi
academic’s take on the American political system hilarious
and thought provoking.
Also coming to Golden Bay as part of this year’s Arts Festival
is a gathering of exceptionally
talented Irish musicians
performing traditional music
in The Seisiún (session) at
The Mussel Inn on Tuesday
20 October at 8.30pm.
Fronted by Irish singersongwriter Roesy, one of
Ireland’s most respected
touring artists, this ensemble
will beguile audiences
with the ancient Irish art of
storytelling, lyric poetry,
folk music and even some
traditional dance.
Charlie says, “Traditionally a Seisiún is Irish music played
by Irish musicians in a pub or pub-like setting. There is
nowhere more apt in the Bay than the Mussel Inn for this
show.”

Festival, visit www.nelsonartsfestival.co.nz

Project De-Vine in East Takaka
A working bee and the start of the East Takaka phase of
vine control is on Saturday 17 October (if wet – the Saturday
after). We will assemble at 9.30am at the letterbox of Bluey
Powell, 877 East Takaka Road on.
There are many vines on the slopes above the road. We
will work on two properties. The owners are keen to start
working on the vines and by giving this area a big hit now, it
will save the weed team a lot of time and show the owners
in this project what can be done in a few hours. This helps
raise our contributions towards the funding. Members of our
experienced weed team will show how to effectively cut and
paste the vines. Pottles of gel are supplied and available for
taking to work on your own property. The last working bee
cut 1000 vines.
This a chance for the many landowners in this area to meet
and work with us.
It does not matter how much you know, as you will be
teamed up with those that know the pest and native vines.
Please brings sturdy shoes, gloves and secateurs, loppers
or handsaws, your own water and snack food to share
afterwards.
The more the better, as there are plenty of vines to share
around, anyone over 16 can learn how to cut and paste the
vines. Women welcome, we have women in the weed team
– it is not just blokes’ work.
The working bee is sponsored by Project Janszoon, Nelson
Building Society and the suppliers of the Glyphosate pottles:

This cute kiwi bach is one of Collingwood's iconic buildings and
opened for business on the 19th October 1940. Now 75 years on,
we are proud to be offering the building and its 78m2 parcel of
Freehold land for sale. That's not a whole lot of real estate!
Sited just off the main street, you can enjoy the convenience of
being just around the corner from Tinky's Tavern, handy to the
General Store, and not very far from a few coveted whitebait spots!

Artist Geoffrey Heath has loved living and
working here - the native bush on the doorstep
and the beach nearby are daily inspiration for his
well-known paintings. The 65sqm brand new
workshop/studio is a wonderful addition to this
attractive property. This is a marvellous
opportunity for another artisan to step in and
take over the love affair, not only with the place
but the lifestyle that it offers.
