The Kaiwaka Sports Association's fifth

annual Top of the Rock multi-sport

event was a great success!

There were over 300 entries – we had

competitors from Kerikeri in the north

to Tauranga in the south as well as lots

entries

from

locals.

Some

competitors tackled the challenging

10km run + 15km mountain bike

course or the 30 and 14km mountain

bike route while the majority entered

the 10 or 5km run or walk course.

TV3's Brendon 'The Money Man’

Johnson was there to hand out the

awards. With generous sponsors, there

were over 90 prizes up for grabs.

Winners got first choice from the prize

table, then the remaining prizes were

given out by a draw.

Results:

Run + bike (male) Jeremy Smart

Run + bike (female) Hayley Hodgetts

& Holly Anderson

Mangawhai Tyres kindly donated $50

for the oldest competitor. This was

won, for the third year in a row, by

Maungaturoto's Trevor Brljevich, 84

years old.

We offered two earlybird prize draws

to encourage people to register early. A

prize pack of cycling accessories went

to Morris Gray and a $200 meal

voucher from Smashed Pipi was won

by Leah Mitchell.

This year there were over fifty

volunteers helping run the event – the

winner of the volunteers’ prize draw

was Karen Stewart. Karen won a

beautiful hard-carved pendant, donated

by Perry Allan of Bone Idol Carvings.

A special prize was given to Merv

Huxford, who was passing everyone in

the bike event – and then got a

puncture!

A lawnmower, generously donated by

Steve Elliott of Kaiwaka Motorcycles,

was raffled off and went to Chris

Wilson.

The main spot prize of a mountain

bike, kindly sponsored by My Bike in

Whangarei was won by an excited Rita

Roland-Kristensen.

As with most community events this is

a team effort, so thank you to:

• the many marshals and registration

officials

• the various groups who provided

food stalls

• Kaiwaka Fire Brigade for the route

supervision

• Coates Family Trust for permission

to climb Baldrock Mountain

• Roxanne Kelly who did the traffic

management

• bar staff and photographers

• and the many landowners who gave

permission for the routes to go over

their farmland.

Some feedback received from the

competitors after the event:

“We loved this event and it was very

well run and well supported with

friendly,

happy

and

helpful

volunteers.”

“Fantastic event, as a first timer the

climb to the rock was a highlight, I'm

still buzzing. Lots of out-of-towners,

heaps of prizes, well done to

everyone.”

“Great event, we had such a good time.

Hard yakka but well worth the climb

for the spectacular view!”

“What a great community! The

organisers, volunteers and marshalls

were all so helpful & loads of great

prizes from all those awesome

sponsors.”

SHEEP DOG

TRIALS

As we look forward to the 2015

season (it's already started), we will be

hosting the Northland Centre Champs,

at Oneriri Road on the 17th, 18th and

the finals on the 19th of April. We

have out-of-centre judges from

Wairoa, Dannevirke and Masterton.

The locals have been churning out the

kilometres of late, with a trip to

Kaitaia for the ever-popular Tux arena

event. Dash made the run-off finishing

a very creditable 4th on trying sheep;

not to be over-awed by her success,

she produced five healthy puppies the

next weekend.

Sunday the 11th of January saw us

hosting the Tux Handy Dog at Otioro

Road, perhaps the most successful

event since we left Breamtail Farm

some eleven years ago. Unfortunately

we locals were only making up the

numbers, with nearly all the cheques

going south and some as far as Taupo

and Turangi.

At very short notice I had to judge the

King Country and North Island Finals

of the Tux Yarding, three full days of

judging and another one for the finals.

Although not winning, Northland dogs

featured very prominently - the winner

being one of our great supporters

Barney Strong and Sparkle. I did

enjoy the job but was very happy to

get away from an extremely hot

Taumarunui, get home and get eye

balls back in their sockets.

We have already had two hill trials,

Scott with Toby and Sceata are setting

a very hot pace - Sceata with two wins

and a second, Toby with two wins.

Duncan and Tim had a 4th at

Helensville, Rob and Jack were 4th at

the Bay of Islands. Scott Silby and

Dawn won the maiden on the very

tough Longhead at the Bay of Islands.

Don't forget those dates in April, well

worth the drive down Oneriri Road,

just look for the big yellow Tux signs.

Friend of the Devil, by Peter

Robinson. A girl is mur der ed in

Taylor's Yard, a maze of alleyways in

the town of Eastvale, on a Saturday

night. Her body is found the next day

by the owner of the nearby leather-

goods shop, who's storeroom is the

scene of the grisly crime. DCI Banks is

in charge of the investigating team.

Meanwhile, DI Cabbot is on loan to

Eastern Area, and on the same day is

called to investigate a body found on

the cliffs with its throat cut, apparently

staring out to sea. It takes little time to

work out that the body is that of a

woman who was taken out from a

nearby rest home, who had not yet

been missed. The two cases seem to be

unconnected at first...

I've been a fan of the tv series "DCI

Banks" before I discovered this author,

and was not disappointed. This is my

second Peter Robinson book (though

the 17th book in the

Inspector

Banks

series), and I'll be

back for more.

This book is on the

Dargaville

shelves

until June 2015.

RSA Launches Online

DIY Commemorations

Toolkit

The RSA has launched

DIY Commemorations;

a free online toolkit of

simple resources designed to help

Kiwis

deliver

their

own

commemorative events and to find out

more about how they can honour their

family’s

military

history.

The toolkit is available to download at

www.rsa.org.nz/diycommemorations

and covers a range of topics; from how

to plan a commemorative event and

maintaining and wearing medals,

through to finding military service

records

RSA National President, BJ Clark, says

the

RSA

developed

DIY

Commemorations to suppor t New

Zealand’s World War One centenary

commemorations and empower Kiwis

to celebrate and remember in ways that

reflect their own unique history.

“Remembrance is not just a salute to

the past. It’s also a way to carry the

stories and ideals of our grandparents

and great grandparents forward into

our world today,” says Mr Clark.

“We encourage all Kiwis to use our

guides and look for opportunities to

weave in the stories and memories that

will truly bring their commemorations

to life.”

Derek Nees, who oversaw the

development

the

DIY

Commemorations toolkit as par t of

the RSA Remembrance Committee,

says many of the resources are

particularly

suited

schools,

community

organisations

and

workplaces who want to hold a

memorial service or event.

“RSAs across the country may also be

available to support communities and

organisations

with

their

commemorations,” says Mr Nees.

“Poppies,

advice

protocol,

information on local military history

and

great

venue

for

post

commemorative events can all be

found at your local RSA.

*Gout is the second most common type

of arthritis in NZ and it is a very poorly

understood condition. People often

think it is all about food and alcohol -

this is what I call one of the myths and

legends of gout.

Gout is a serious and very painful

condition which if it is not treated with

preventative medication can lead to

kidney and permanent bone damage. It

is not just the pain.

Anyone who has gout or would like to

know more about it is welcome to

come along to these sessions at no

cost. I welcome anyone who has any

type of arthritis and would like

information and support to these

sessions.

KAIWAKA’S FIRST ROAD

FATALITY

The following description which is very down to earth

happened 135 years ago not far from my gateway in

Settlement Road and shows what had to be done at a time

when there was no phone to call, no ambulance to summon

and no doctor on hand.

PUKEKARORO.— FATAL ACCIDENT.

A  most  deplorable  accident  occurred  on  Tuesday,  December
18,  by  which  Mr.  J.  Waldron,  Kaiwaka,  lost  his  life.  The  sad
catastrophe  happened  almost  within  sight  of  his  own  house.
The particulars connected with the sad affair were brought out
in  evidence  given  at  the  inquest  held  at  his  late  residence,
before  Mr.  J.  Ryan,  Coroner,  and  a  jury,  of  which  Mr.  T.  W.
Dowson  was  foreman.  The  principal  witness  examined  was  a
lad  named  Joseph  Harris,  nephew  of  deceased,  who  deposed
that  on  the  day  of  the  accident  he  was  in  company  with  his
uncle, who was returning from Mangawai  [sic]  with a  team of
bullocks and dray. The dray contained stones. The two leading
bullocks were not mates, and were very unsteady in the yoke.
On nearing Mr. Leslie's farm deceased took charge of the team,
leading  the  near  bullock  by  a  piece  of  rope.  His  uncle  was
walking backwards, when his foot came in contact with a tuft of
rushes. He overbalanced himself, falling by the roadside, which
startled  the  bullocks,  causing  them  to  swerve  round.  Before
deceased  had  time  to  regain  his  feet  the  wheel  of  the  dray
passed over his left breast  and lower part  of his face. Witness
lost  no  time  in  bringing  up  the  bullocks  and  returning  to  his
uncle,  who  was  lying  stretched  out,  his  face  downwards.
Witness  lifted  him  up,  setting  his  back  against  a  bunch  of
rushes.  Deceased  desired  to  be  put  back  again  to  his  former
position, and asked for a drink. His uncle was then bleeding at
the  mouth.  Witness  then  left  him  to  procure  water  and
assistance.  When  leaving,  he  heard  deceased  say,  "Good  by,
Joe."  He  ran  to  Mr.  Leslie,  and  told  him  of  the  accident,  and
was  afterwards  sent  for  additional  assistance.  He  went  to  the
house of Mr.  A. Cameron, and had to pass the spot  where his
uncle lay. He appeared to be still alive, and was surrounded by
witness's aunt, Mr. Leslie, his wife, and their son. To a juror: he
did  not  see  the  wheel  go  over  deceased's  head,  as  at  that
moment his attention was directed to the bullocks. He did not
consider the life of deceased could have been saved.—William
Leslie  was  examined,  and  deposed  that  deceased  died  when
they  were  conveying  him  home  on  a  stretcher.  The  time
between the accident and the death of deceased would not be
more  than  fifteen  minutes.  —This  being  all  the  evidence  the
jury  considered  necessary,  the  Coroner  made  a  few  remarks,
whereupon the jury, after a few minutes' deliberation, returned
the  following  verdict.  "That  deceased,  John  Waldron,  was
accidently  killed  by  being  run  over  by  the  wheel  of  his  loaded
dray." The jury, through their foreman, desired the Coroner to
convey to Mrs. Waldron their expression of deep sympathy for
the sudden bereavement she had sustained.
The funeral procession left Mr. Waldron's late residence about
two  hours  after  the  close  of  the  inquest.  His  remains  were
borne  to  the  grave  by  his  sorrowing  neighbours.  Through  the
suddenness  of  the  melancholy  accident  many  friends  were
unable  to  show  the  last  mark  of  respect  to  one  who  was  well
known  as  an  industrious  and  thriving  settler.  Deceased  had
been 19 years in the colony, was well known in Auckland and at
the Thames. He was born in Lydford, Devonshire, and 52 years
of  age.  Deceased  had  no  family,  but  leaves  his  widow
comfortably

Correspondent.]

(PapersPast.natlib.govt.nz)

The Waldron and Leslie families landed in NZ and took up

land within a few days of one another. Joe Harris left soon

after the accident and became prominent in the lower North

Island, when I did an account of him for the Bugle a couple

of years ago. ~Bill Leslie

BOOK REVIEW

The Fear Index, by Robert Harris

Dr Alex Hoffmann is a very wealthy

scientist, a visionary who developed a

revolutionary artificial intelligence - a

computer

program that

learned

work

the

investment

hedge fund

system

such a way

that it made

money

the bucket-

load

even

when other

investments

were failing.

makes

billions

dollars every day, just in its testing

phase.

But then on the eve of launching this

"service" to the top investors in his

company, Alex's home is invaded.

Somehow a man bypassed all the

sophisticated security, and when Alex

found him - having been woken by a

noise - he was laying out knives in the

kitchen and sharpening them. To do

what, exactly, to Alex and his wife?

And so begins the nightmare of

paranoia and violence, as Alex tries to

find out who is doing this, who is

trying to destroy him.

I've read several Robert Harris books

before, and enjoyed all of them. This is

no exception, and I recommend it. This

book is on the Rental Fiction shelves in

the library.
