Campdraft “One of the best in the State”
“One of the best in the State”, “Best run of cattle used in a
Campdraft”, were two of the many (all good) feedback comments Peter Eade
received as a result of the successful Campdraft held at Scurrah Reserve, the
former home of Lockington Pony Club, on October 11th and 12th. Peter
said they received 720 entries from as far away as Gundagai, Portland
and Maffra, and unfortunately had to turn away 300 entries.
The Rich River Campdraft Club, which is a member of the Campdraft
Association, only had 3 months to revamp and make suitable the site with
volunteers erecting new fences and yards, and they were working up until
the day before the event, therefore apologised for the lack of publicity
to the local community. They hope more news will become available as
they hope to run schools and clinics, and the Campdraft will be annual
event. There is a lot of work they wish to do in setting up sheds, a
kitchen, showers, and getting the power put on, which is a major
expense, and one of their big aims is to be one of the best Campdraft sites.
Campdrafting tests the skill of horse and rider in cutting a beast from
a herd, bringing it to a gate, and in 40 seconds or less, manoeuvring
it through a course. Judges on horseback control the safety and assess
the skill of the rider. Any indication of stress to the beast being
drafted results in the crack of a stockwhip and the immediate halt of
the draft. 900 cattle were used, and all were donated by local farmers,
and were returned home in the same good condition in which they were
given. Cooper’s Animal Health, a major sponsor, supplied drench to the
farmers who donated cattle.
Of all the events, the “Super Cutout” was the only one won by a
‘local’, who was “Macca” McLennan of Nanneella, all other winners were from
further afield. Maiden Junior, Novice, Juvenile, and Women’s Open were
other events held. The children didn’t miss out and all who
participated went home with ribbons for events which included whip cracking and
barrel racing (that’s on horse back), etc.
Both Peter and Michelle Penny said, “It was really good to see a lot of
the local people come to have a look, it was fantastic to have so many
locals popping in. Sparked up morale.” Saturday night was great too,
with a 2 course roast meal served to 150 people, and a Campdrafters
Band from Wangaratta entertained. An auction raised more than $1000
which helped the running costs and will assist in setting up next year’s
Campdraft. More than 60% of entry fees went back in prizes to the
entrants.
The Club are very grateful to those who supported and sponsored the
event. A special thanks to major sponsors Teangi Stock Feeds, who
supplied 3 bags horse feed per event place getters, and Cooper’s Animal Health
for the drench. Also to Pentreath’s who sponsored the ladies event,
and other local business houses who supported other events.
Michelle said, “The local CAG group were fully supportive of the event,
before and after, and we are very grateful. Peter, who organised the
cattle, said the event would not have been run so successfully without
the generous support of the farmers and their cattle.
Ed. Well done RRCC another great event places Lockington on the map.

DAY CARE AT LOCKINGTON
On the 1st Monday of each Month Lockington LBU ladies provide a lovely
luncheon. Two small bus loads of Ladies and Gents come with their
carers from Rochester & Elmore, very few attend from Lockington which is a
great pity. The entertainment varies, novelties, competitions usually
musical groups in the afternoon.
Last Monday was Hat Day and many wore hats because of the Melbourne
Cup. Steve Pellegrino looked great fabulous thanks to Dawn Sutton. Dawn
was chosen because of her hat and Anne Fiedler was named “Lady of the
Day.”
Bev Lees invited us to view her lovely garden, many thanks to Bev.
Ruby the Kangaroo was there to wel -come us.
A really great day was had by all.

LOCKINGTON SENIOR CITIZENS
Busy time for Lockington Senior Citizens, Monday 13 October. We all
enjoyed a nice afternoon, (even though our numbers were down) with a
light luncheon and afternoon with a fashion parade with Helen Pitts
clothes.
Oct 17th five Locky members joined Elmore in their Annual Birthday
afternoon tea & Concert.
Eight Locky members joined Rochester Seniors going with “Maffescioni
Bus Lines Maryborough” to the Gippsland Lakes, Lakes Entrance, Dainum,
Warragul, Bainsdale, Orbost, More, Traralgon, Trafalgar, Marlo, Cape
Conan, Nowra - Nowra, Mingling Watus, Moe, Metung,Wahalla and a guided tour
over Loy Yang Power Works and many more with lots of interesting things
to see around the Gippsland Areas.
Four members went to Rushworth 30th October to have a great time at
their Annual Birthday.
There were 10 members from the Lockington Senior Citizens who enjoyed a
lovely day with the Elmore Senior Citizens. Leaving Elmore at 8pm and
onto Gisbourne for morning tea at 10 am, then onto Werribee to see the
Rose Gardens, of which some were flower but a lot more to bloom. They
were very pretty, then we had a BBQ lunch in the picnic area at 12.30pm
which was very nice.
Then onto the Zoo, for a 2 pm bus Safari which took about 1 hr out in
the open plains. There were Emus, a Hippopotamus and baby sleeping in
the water. There was also a baby white rhinoceros and mother. There
were a lot of Zebras, deer, elks, wild horses, also 2 baby bison's with
their mothers. The babies are called pumpkins, I suppose because there
are orange in color. Also there were 3 Giraffes .
We left Werribee at 3:30pm and on to Gisborne for afternoon tea then
home.
A great day was enjoyed by everyone.

LOCKINGTON & DISTRICT LIVING HERITAGE COMPLEX
Heritage Complex Web Site
Hello Everyone,
Schools History.
Our history book has been completed and has gone to the printers. We
are very grateful to anyone who helped in anyway, particularly to Beryl
who assisted with typing and some indexing in the final hectic week.
Louise and I were working pretty much full time on the project as the
printers deadline approached. (when he is old enough to know what I’m
talking about, I must thank baby William Ross - not 3 months old at the
time!! - for having been so patient and co-operative) Now all we need
to do it wait for the “Book Launch” at the Consolidated School 50th
Anniversary celebrations on November 29, 2003!
Display Area/Heritage Shed
A great deal of time and effort in being directed towards having our
new shedding all ready for its Official Opening by Cr Greg Toll on 30
November, 2003. Water, lighting, screenings, fencing and general tiding
of the site, have all been completed - or will be soon!! This won’t
mean that there is nothing more to be achieved, of course. Local
history Museums are works in progress, and the Heritage Complex will be
there to challenge and excite us for years to come.
Kevin Sarre Statue
The unveiling of the statue honoring our local and national shearing
great, the late Kevin Sarre, will also be taking place on 30 November,
2003. Mr Bob Rankin is making an excellent job of the bluestone wall at
the back of the statue. Protective glass and the other extras still
have to be completed, but it will all be ready on the day!! The memorial
statue is an initiative of the Lockington Arts & Cultural Development
Group, assisted by a grant awarded by the Shire of Campaspe. The
official unveiling will be carried out by Mayor Cr Murray McDonald. We look
forward having your company for both of these events, and for the
barbeque lunch beforehand, so please mark the date on your calendar.
Carols By Torchlight
While you are marking your calendar please put a circle around Sunday
21st December 2003, so that you will be sure to come along to sing
Christmas Carols with us on that evening, at 7:30pm. I’ll let you know more
of the plans for that night, as it come closer. One sure bet is that
we can expect a special Visitor (from the North Pole???)
That’s all my news for now. Cheerio.
Marg O'Brien.

MEDIA RELEASE FROM 15/10
TAXI PROGRAM CUTS UNFAIR FOR REGIONAL VICTORIANS
The Nationals’ Member for Rodney Noel Maughan said the Bracks
Government’s decision to cut back and cap the Multi-Purpose Taxi Program (MPTP)
is another example of Labor’s inability to manage money, which will
impact most on rural and regional Victorians.
“The decision to cap the MPTP at $550 per year was draconian, unfair
and will make life tough for elderly, disabled and intellectually
disabled residents” Mr. Maughan said.
“The MPTP provides a subsidy for taxi use for people who have
difficulty using public transport or other transport and is used by 180,000
people across the state.”
“Transport Minister Peter Batchelor has now taken the axe to it,
introducing the cap, means testing and a $16.50 charge for membership cards,
yet another revenue raiser for this government.”
Mr Maughan said that the decision will impact most on aged and disabled
people living in country Victoria who require regular visits to a
doctor or clinic.
“Many of these people are simply unable to pay and these heartless cuts
will either compromise their medical treatment or significantly
increase their stress level, or both.”
“I have already been contacted by a number of people who are angry and
very concerned about the governments’ decision to cap the program.”
“This, together with the so called productivity cuts to the Disability
sector, shows Labor has clearly lost control of the state’s finances
and is now hitting some of the most vulnerable members of our community.
“Victoria is bigger than Melbourne and it is appalling that country
Victorians have to suffer further under this city-centric Labor
Government,” Mr. Maughan said.

LOCKINGTON BOWLS REPORT
The Lockington Bowls Club conducted a successful Melbourne Cup day
Bowls tournament. Bowlers enjoyed a fine meal and two games. The winning
team was Neil Haines, Annice Jensen and Madge Cunnington (5). Joan
O'Brien won the annual Cup sweep in fine style.
The Ladies Pennant teams had mixed results with Division One losing to
City of Echuca while Division Three chalked up another win over
Deniliquin. Division One: Lockington 68 lost to City of Echuca 80. Alice
McMinn skipped the winning team while Mary Dullard and Irene Kauffman just
failed to contain the opposition. Division Three: Lockington 58 defeated
Deniliquin 35. (M Malone, P Macfarlane, M Cunnington, P Humbert (s) d.
L Morris 2~18; J Chappel, J O'Brien, G Haines, B Mustey (5) d M King
2~17).
In the Mens Pennant there was only the one winning team with Division
Three scraping home from Deniliquin R.S.L. by three shots 6562 The
Division One squad had a tough day at the office against a spirited Mathoura
side going down 88-129. John Dinsdale was the winning skipper on the
day. Division Five journeyed to Rich River and returned home losing by
just three shots - 4541.
In the early rounds of the Club championship there have been a couple
of surprises. The Ladies championship series began with last year’s
winner Rhonda Gallagher losing to Irene Kauffman in a high standard
display. Joan O'Brien proved too consistent for Bev Brereton. Lois Chugg
played really top bowls to defeat Gwen Haines. Mary Dullard used her vast
experience to win against Julie Chappel while Joan Ryan was in
devastating form to defeat Colleen Holman. Betty Mustey played solid bowls to win
through to the next round after defeating Phyllis Macfarlane in a
see-sawing game. Kath Palmer defeated Madge Cunnington.
Rhonda Gallagher and Joan Ryan contested the State Singles at Moama
during the week. Rhonda Gallagher won a couple of game to make the last
eight while Joan Ryan enjoyed the experience.
The mens championship is under way with John Dinsdale proving too
strong for Kevin Humbert. In the Presidents trophy (21 Up) Club Secretary
Jeff Millard bowled brilliantly to defeat Ian Holman in the first round.
On the local tournament scene Lockington bowlers travelled to Elmore
and City of Echuca during the week. Not much sucess at Echuca however,
Mick Brown and Don lsgro won the major trophies at the Elmore 2x4x2 Pairs
being the only three game winner Brian Jones and Len Aicken (Rochester)
were the Runners Up. Geoff Shawcross - Les Forster along with Alan
kauffman - Chris Stewart had little to show after winning one game between
them.

LOCKINGTON TENNIS NEWS
9 NOVEMBER 2003
On Melbourne Cup eve, the Lockington Cricket and Tennis Clubs conducted
a successful and enjoyable Calcutta. Travis Mancer’s table purchased
Makybe Diva for $255, and collected the winner’s prize of $1500. Sue
Neale’s table sold their horse for $70, and then purchased She’s Archie
for $80, which meant that they spent only $10. Their astute investment
earned them a wonderful $750. Steve Holt’s table collected $250 for
running third with their horse Jardine’s Lookout.
Ian Maddison conducted the auction in a brilliant fashion, assisted
capably by Graeme Carnie – thanks to them for their terrific work. Thanks
to Flip and Linda from the Locky Pub for keeping the punters happy, and
many thanks to all the members from the Tennis Club and Cricket Club
who provided the delicious supper. Finally a big thank you to all the
people who turned up on the night, which was an extremely successful
fundraiser for the Clubs.
Tennis scores: 1/11 – Under 13s: Locky 13 2 sets 20 games defeated
Locky 12 2 sets 16 games. For Locky 13, Mark Ovens won both his sets,
while Marcus Angove won both his sets for Locky 12. Locky 14 1/9 lost to
Bamawm 14 3/23. Blake Mears and Michael Chapman won their set 6/5 for
Locky 14.
8/11 – Section 2B: Locky 7 5/55 lost to Lawn 9 8/66. Locky 7 played
well in the earlier sets to lead by 1 game going into the crucial mixed,
but Lawn won all the mixed sets to win on the day. Grant Humbert,
Russell Hann and Melissa Haines all won 2 sets on the day.
Under 13s: Locky 13 1/13 lost to Bamawm 13 3/23. Carl O’Brien and
Alister Holt won their set 6/5 for Locky 13. Locky 15 4/24 d South 13 0/1
– well done to the Locky kids. South were one player short, so a big
thank you to Ashlee Keath for filling in at short notice (and to Pauline
the taxi-driver for making 2 trips), which enabled a full match to take
place, and all the kids were able to have a hit.
