Supporting community developmentKaipara District Council has
granted the Dargaville Community Development Board Inc the
management role of 34 social housing units in a move that will see
the board shift closer to its aim of becoming a selfsustainable
organisation.
The income generated from the units located in Dargaville and
Ruawai will support paid staff members to oversee the
administration of the properties, who will also have spare capacity
which can be directed to helping with the boards support role with
the Dargaville Business Forum and the Kauri Coast Promotion
Society.
This will effectively increase the shelf life of our volunteers,
says current chair of the Dargaville Community Development Board,
Allan Mortensen.
We will manage the 34 units with the emphasis on achieving the
best living environment for those tenants.
We are also there as a support structure for the business forum
and the promotion society and will continue to look at other
revenue streams so we can be self sufficient and not reliant on
grants.
In the past Mr Mortensen says similar volunteerled organisations
have experienced burn out in even their most driven members.
People still need to earn a living, so having paid staff that
are able to do some of the volunteer work will mean we can achieve
more.
Unit tenants gather as the management of 34 social housing units
is passed over from the Kaipara District Council to the Dargaville
Community Development Board Inc. Pictured from left: Louise Dick,
new property manager Gloria Milich, George Macmillan, past Kaipara
District Council property manager Brenda Polwarth, Jack Jenkins,
Sharlene Hall and Sue Jenkins
Our unit management staff will also assist with organising
community projects and essentially make life easier for the
volunteers.
Mr Mortensen says the move is an extension of the message
recently emphasised by community revitalisation expert Peter Kenyon
in a visit to Dargaville.
The past is the window to the future. We need to look at what
has worked in Dargaville previously, focus on that and not get
caught up in what didnt work.
He believes the success of the former Kauri Coast Development
Board, and the Kaipara Community Health Trust, has been largely due
to having the resources which enabled those groups to be
operational for many years.
The Dargaville Community Development Board is excited about this
move and part of its plan is to work together with tenants in a
support role and provide the security of healthy homes.

A festive day
Lions lunch honours age
Staff of the Dargaville ASB held a bake sale with a sausage
sizzle which raised $280 for the local St John Ambulance service.
St John staff and volunteers were on deck selling new toy ambulance
building blocks which have been available from ASB banks as part of
a fundraiser to buy a new ambulance for the service across the
country. The toy ambulances have over 100 pieces and are a great
gift for children. They have been very popular and are a great way
to support the cause. It was a very successful day, said ASB senior
customer service officer Serena Carran.

A generational game by Ayla Miller
Three generations of the Webb family gathered at the Arapohue
Bowling Club on December 2, marking a special occasion the 50th
anniversary of the Webb Memorial Pairs.
The trophy is a memorial to George Webb who was a founding
member of the club.
Later in life when his brother Karl died the trophy was
dedicated to both men.
Twentyeight teams travelled from as far away as Kerikeri and
Coromandel for the competition which club member Viv Webb says has
always had strong support from clubs everywhere.
It was a very successful day and it was nice to have the family
coming from afar to take part in the event, Viv said. Georges
91year-old son
Bill Webb was also able to celebrate the memorials anniversary
and only stopped playing in this tournament one year ago.
A passion for bowls runs in the Webb family and Karls grandson
Rhys Webb travelled from Perth to participate, whilst Georges
great-grandson Bevan visited from Christchurch.
The trophy was won by ex Arapohue member Kevin Gainfort of Te
Puru, Coromandel and Sandy Foy of Arapohue.
We hope to continue the tradition on for many more years, said
Viv.
Carts venture takes off by Ayla Miller
A new tourism venture is ready to roll, and set to bring more
tourists to the Kaipara, as three years of preparations and
negotiations finally come to fruition.
Dargaville Rail and River, the brainchild of riverboat Daisy
operator John Hansen and business partner Dave Selby, officially
opened on December 12 and offers people the chance to see the rail
tracks from Dargaville to Tangowahine in a way they have never been
seen before.
Hopefully it will bring new people into the area. It will be
great to see them enjoying the drive and doing something different,
says Mr Hansen.
It will give users a completely unique perspective of the area
to what they would normally see from the road.
After years of planning and organising, he says it feels good to
finally have everything in place.
The pair have leased the lines and obtained a rail licence which
is required to run anything on the line.
He says patrons should allow for up to three hours return to
cover the 15 kilometre stretch on the carts which travel at 25
kilometres an hour.
After a rail inspection the tracks are deemed up to standard and
fit for purpose.
The rail carts sit four people and the driver must have a full
drivers licence. The trail will follow a lead car which can
communicate with other carts via radio.
Tourists will be treated to a history lesson about the rail
lines and Mr Hansen says he hopes the venture will encourage
visitors to stay longer in Dargaville.
Hopefully they will stay overnight at a hotel or motel which
will create a spin off for other businesses.
There has already been a significant amount of interest and they
have been taking bookings long before the lines opened.
We are hoping people will come from out of town specifically to
do this, especially train buffs.
Bookings can be made through the Dargaville and Kauri Coast
Visitor Information Centre or on their website

Farmers from South America by Ann Morgan
A group of 22 South American visitors stayed at the Commercial
Hotel bed and breakfast in Dargaville recently as part of a joint
programme with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, learning
how New Zealand dairy farmers get good production from their
cows.
It is a four year project targeting small to medium dairy
farmers in the high tropics of Colombia South America aiming to
improve their productivity and quality of milk on farms for a
better standard of living and helping make the country more self
sufficient, said host Maria Duter.
The group visited the Northland Agricultural Research Farm in
Dargaville to see how New Zealand farming is similar to theirs. Due
to the high altitude where they come from, the grass that grows
there is Kikuyu Pennisetum clandestinum, which is also widely
spread across Northland.
It was a great day out with them on the farm and it was a huge
learning experience for them to see how we manage our pasture. They
really enjoyed learning how its possible to manage a Kikuyu system
and were looking forward to taking back some of our practices
and putting them into action in their own country, said farm
manager Karla Frost.
Ms Duter said there are many experts across different areas of
farming in New Zealand sharing their knowledge in all areas of farm
systems from business to feed growth, cheesemaking and
marketing.
A farm over there can consist of five cows, the average is two
or three. The farms are like 1920s New Zealand, they are still
milking by hand. This project is to help them adopt improved
practises and the end result will be profitable with the local
community benefitting.
The farmers work very hard to leave a legacy for the generations
to come and the information our country is giving them is very
practical in helping them achieve better results.
It was great visiting Northland, they had a really good time
here and learnt lots of valuable information, she said.
The group of Colombian farmers interacted with the a group of
local singers whilst staying at the Commercial Hotel on their
farming expedition to New Zealand

Biotoxin shellfish warning by Ayla Miller
The Northland District Health Board Public Health Unit have
issued a public health warning, urging the people not to collect or
eat shellfish from between, and including, Mitimiti north of the
Hokianga harbour, to Pouto at the entrance to Kaipara harbour.
Shellfish collected within the area have shown the presence of
Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning toxins, above the regulatory level.
The symptoms of paralytic shellfish poisoning include numbness and
tingling around the mouth, face or extremities, difficulty in
swallowing or breathing, dizziness and double vision.
In severe cases, paralysis and respiratory failure can occur
within 12 hours of consuming shellfish.
Cooking the shellfish does not remove the toxin. Anyone who
becomes ill after eating shellfish should see a doctor or phone
Healthline for advice on 0800 61 11 16. For emergencies, phone 111
for immediate medical help, says Northland district health board
medical officer Dr Clair Mills.
There is a regular monitoring programme along the coastline in
New Zealand that is managed by the Ministry of Primary
Industries.
There are trigger levels in the water that we use to determine
what is happening. When the trigger level is elevated a warning is
issued as
shellfish concentrate the toxins. They filter water at large
volumes so that is why they are the most unsafe thing to eat when
there are toxins around.
Dr Mills also reminds people to be careful of shellfish they may
have collected in the last week and put in the freezer.
It takes a few days for the test results to come through. We did
have a slightly elevated trigger already in the first week of
December so it is important that people are aware of that.
Similar cases have typically lasted a couple of weeks and
sometimes longer depending on the weather and the tides.
Northland District Health Board will monitor the situation and
advise of any changes.
Members of the public with queries about shellfish safety may
call: Whangarei Hospital on 09 430 4100 and request the on-call
Health Protection Officer.

History transformed by Ann Morgan
After three years of negotiations and renovations, Mangawhai
Artists Inc now have a home to call their own. The building which
was originally the museum in Mangawhai village now proudly displays
local artworks.
We have repainted the exterior to fit in with the surroundings
the library and village hall. It has been lined and painted and we
are ready to kick off and officially open to the public on on
Saturday December 19, said committee member Cliff McPherson.
The group of 103 members have been proactive in promoting and
providing their own sense of ownership of the project and a good
number have been getting together and had many working bees and
scrubbed, painted and renovated to get it all ready. He says the
community have started to take note of the changes and are
appreciating that the building has a new life.
I have lived in Mangawhai for over ten years and have seen many
changes. There is quite a buzz around here
and the market which happens to be outside our building makes
the whole atmosphere very vibrant.
The gallery is opening with an exhibition of small works by
members of the group and will have a real sense of unity as each
small work is the same size. This can be a challenge to some
artists but it also drives your creative sense of experimentation
and adventure.
This is the first time Mangawhai artists will have their own
space and throughout the year there will be group and private
exhibitions on display.
It will be operated on a volunteer basis and we are very
excited. This is absolutely great for Mangawhai. We have turned a
bit of an ugly duckling into a beautiful gallery.
Members of the Mangawhai Artists Inc Marie Reid, Ailsa Dennis,
Jean Fountain and Cliff MacPherson adding the finishing touches to
the renovations for the new gallery opening
Kiwi author earns accoladesB O O K R E V I E W
From sleazy streets in downtown Asian cities to the idyll of
island life in New Zealand, the settings in the book City of Storms
are described in such detail they remain vividly imprinted. Someone
should buy the film rights it would be a fabulous movie.
Amazon book reviewer Verily Annabel has joined others in praise
of author Paul Campbells new novel City of Storms, now available in
e-book and print form.
I spent 16 years in Asia and pretty much lived the research for
the book, Mr Campbell says.
It is set against historical events so its a balance between
fact and fiction.
I leave it up to the reader to decide which is which so it is a
bit of a modern twist on those historical novels out there. But it
has surely received support on line.
Reviewer D Bryenton wrote: A human drama set against the
backdrop of social upheaval, and a cast of characters who are
thoroughly real, totally engaging and who are shaped by the culture
which author Paul Campbell has expertly depicted. This is the good
stuff. Five out of five stars!
M C Poole added: City of Storms brings to enthralling life the
city of Manila as the Marcos regime
crumples, a vibrant street culture most of us pass by on the
other side of the road, and the semi-detached existence lived by
the foreign correspondent, one foot in the palace, one foot in the
gutter or the camp of the freedom fighter. There is love and sex
and bathos, yet through it all Paul Campbell keeps a finger on that
essential pulse the human spirit so beautiful, so tough, and so
frail. Well done.

Festive birthdaycelebrations for museumA sold-out gathering of
supporters and residents enjoyed an afternoon of bubbles, baubles
and song to celebrate the Mangawhai Museums first full year of
operation.
The bubbles were used to toast not only the success of the first
year but also to drink to the success of the museum into the
future.
The baubles were amongst display of mostly handcrafted Christmas
decorations made by locals and there were promises of something
special planned for next year.
The museums first year of operations has been successful with
many groups booking their outings with us and our in house cafe,
Jessies. Next year we are hoping to become more involved with the
local schools as we are in the process of setting up a
wonderful education programme, said museum manager Emma
Gray.
Society president, Christine Bygrave acknowledged Emmas work in
her address and thanked all the volunteers without whom the Museum
could not operate.
The year saw the first special exhibition which highlighted the
sinking of the Niagara. More exhibitions of this type are planned
with the next one due early next year.
Plans for Mangawhai Park and the Historical Village continue to
take shape forming an attraction that is hoped to benefit Mangawhai
as a whole.
The Do Re Me quartet gave a concert of classical and traditional
carols at the Mangawhai Museums first birthday celebrations
Win for brigade member by Ayla Miller
The votes are in, the donations counted and long serving
Dargaville Volunteer Fireman Gary Murdoch has won over the people
of Dargaville, awarding him the prestigious title of Dargaville
Person of the Year 2015.
Dargaville Person of the Year creator Erica Tebbutt says, Gary
is a very deserving recipient of the title this year. Everyone has
recently celebrated his 50 years with the Dargaville Fire Brigade
and this is a brilliant way to acknowledge his amazing contribution
to our community.
He is a great leader that sets a great example to all of us. As
Gary represented the Dargaville Fire brigade, they will receive the
profits from the event which will be presented next week.
The total amount raised will be $300. A cheque of $300 will go
to the
Dargaville Fire Brigade to help keep the brigade up and
running.
Gary is very humble and a great character. We really appreciate
all he does and even though hes accomplished 50 years of service,
he still keeps coming to the station and we like that, said chief
fire officer Jeffrey Palmer.
He is generally an all round good character and fully deserves
this award, he is really well known around the community, not just
with the fire brigade but with many community organisations. It is
a pleasure working with him.

Lighting up the street by Ayla Miller
The Horseshoe Cafe, Takeaway and Dairy owner Jolene Morris, is
lighting up Hokianga Road with her extensive Christmas lights
display.
Jolene decided to decorate her store last Christmas and has now
expanded her collection.
This year Ive added a lot more lights. They are all over the
front of the shop and inside the windows as well.
She says her motivation came from enjoying the lights herself
but mostly does it for the kids.
I enjoy people coming to admire them. I dont do much for
Christmas because I dont get to have a holiday, so putting the
lights up is my thing.
She typically starts her display on December 1, although she
says it took her a little longer this year due to sheer
quantity.
Ive had lots of people coming in and commenting on them.
People drop in when they are driving past and see them. They
sometimes
stop me in town and tell me they look good too.The slight
increase in her power bill doesnt worry her a bit as she
says the lights create a buzz amongst her customers and even
attracts new ones.

Foodbank co-ordinator Millie said Its absolutely fantastic to
receive the cakes.
We really appreciate the club making this donation. It will make

are sure the receivers will like the added touch and appreciate the
effort the ladies have gone to.

WISHING ALL KAIPARA RESIDENTS A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY
SEASON
A trailer full of joy by Ayla Miller
A trailer load of Christmas joy was delivered to Kaipara Abuse
Prevention by the Kaipara District Council, in the form of gifts
for less fortunate families, donated by the community and council
staff members.
Kaipara Abuse Prevention manager Simone Matthews says the act of
generosity has been humbling.
In this industry we are often asking for support and funding so
it has been great to be chosen in this instance, she said.
It is a reflection of the great work that KAP have done over the
years and indicates that we have been raising our profile.
The initiative was spearheaded by KDC staff member Missy Hokai,
who wanted to to spread some festive cheer to local children in
need.
Simone says the gifts will be distributed to families that KAP
work with when their volunteers go on visits.
We will acknowledge that they are from the community as it is
important that our families know their community cares.
We recognise Christmas can be a difficult and stressful time for
families
KDC staff members Paula Hansen, Jessie Wordley, Darlene Lang
Gent, KAP coordinator Bethne Smith, KDC staff member Annie Frost,
KAP manager Simone Matthews and KDC staff member and project
founder Missy Hokai
and these gifts will help parents feel as if their children
arent missing out. They will be able to celebrate Christmas like
many other families.
Kaipara Abuse Prevention would sincerely like to thank the
council and staff for initiating this project as well as members of
the community who donated items.
Parade fun in the sun
The sun was out and so were the crowds as the streets of Ruawai
were lined with colourful and creative floats for the towns annual
Christmas parade. Here Ruawai JMB Rugby players greet their
supporters in the parade of 17 floats. Taking the lead was the fire
van and police with Santa bringing up the rear in the fire engine.
Northash Farms Ltd was awarded the prize for the best float which
came complete with farm dog, children decked out in farm safety
gear and a green tyre Christmas tree.

KAIPARA LIFESTYLER December 15 - 2015 11
Kaipara Health Services Community UpdateNorthland DHB and
Dargaville Medical Centre announced new joint arrangements for
healthcare in the Kaipara that commenced on 1 October. Here are
some frequently asked questions and answers, for your
information.
DOES DARGAVILLE HOSPITAL HAVE AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT?
Dargaville Hospital does not have an emergency department. If
you are very unwell, require complex investigations such as CT scan
and/or specialist input you will be transferred to Whangarei
Hospital regardless of the hour of day.
ARE THE SERVICES AT DARGAVILLE HOSPITAL BEING REDUCED?
No. Dargaville Medical Centre has struggled in recent years to
recruit GPs who are willing to work after-hours and be on-call to
the hospital. Dargaville Medical Centre has notified Northland DHB
that it is no longer able to provide the day-to-day and overnight
care of Dargaville Hospital.
Northland DHB agreed to take back responsibility for medical
staffing at Dargaville Hospital so the community can be reassured
that all services will now be sustainable. The Northland DHB
Dargaville Hospital contract started on 1 October.
The new model is actually an increase in service because there
will now be a dedicated hospital doctor available in addition to
the current GP on call and it will provide a sustainable hospital
model rather that the existing system which has been shown to be
unsustainable.
The DHB and Dargaville Medical Centre are committed to the
people of the Kaipara. With Northland DHB agreeing to take back
responsibility for medical staffing at Dargaville Hospital the
community can be reassured that all service will now be
sustainable. The Northland DHB Dargaville Hospital contract started
on 1 October.
WHEN CAN I SEE A DOCTOR AFTER-HOURS?
As well as their normal Monday to Friday GP clinics, Dargaville
Medical Centre will continue a three-hour clinic on Saturdays and
Sundays and retain the 24/7 after-hours GP service. The first point
of contact of all health concerns during the day or after-hours
will remain through Dargaville Medical Centre on 09 439 8079 where
you will be put through to the triage nurse.
WHAT IS ACTUALLY CHANGING?
Admission to Dargaville Hospital will occur as usual between the
hours of 7am and 10pm. After 10pm all patients requiring admission
will be transferred to Whangarei. There will still be a GP on call
for healthcare provided in the community, usually from a GP or
practice nurse. There is also a doctor on call for the hospital
inpatients and any emergencies that require stabilisation prior to
transfer to Whangarei.
HOW DOES THIS AFFECT LOCAL STAFFING? WILL ANY JOBS BE LOST?
The DHB is committed to ensuring safe staffing levels at
Dargaville Hospital which will create some extra employment in the
area. In order to protect the medical staff from professional
isolation it is likely that the Medical Officers will undertake
some duties in other Rural Sites, not work exclusively in
Dargaville.
HOW MUCH WILL IT COST TO SEE A DOCTOR AFTER-HOURS?
There will still be a charge for seeing a GP after-hours. If a
patient is picked up at home and taken directly to Dargaville or
Whangarei Hospital and sees the hospital doctor there will no
doctor charge. If you call an ambulance from your home the standard
ambulance charge will apply. If you are a member of the St John
Supporter scheme then emergency ambulance transport to hospital is
free.
WHAT IMPACT HAS THIS HAD ON DARGAVILLE ST JOHN AMBULANCE?
St John Ambulance, the Northland DHB and Dargaville Medical
Centre continue to work closely together as the new model evolves.
Regular meetings focus on addressing issues resulting from these
changes as they arise. Our priority is to ensure patient safety and
the delivery of a patient-centred service.
For unwell, unstable or marginally sick patients ambulance
officers are able to contact the On Call GP for support within the
Dargaville community.
There has been no change to the care we provide in the case of
time critical and seriously unstable patients. The hospital doctor
is available on call to assist with emergency stabilisation at the
Dargaville hospital prior to transfer to Whangarei.
There is also no change for patients located outside the
immediate Dargaville township area, ambulance crews are able to
call on ambulance advanced life support teams, either by road
ambulance or via the rescue helicopter, to assist with stabilising
and transporting time critical patients to Whangarei Hospital.
There has been an increase in the average drive time for
incidents between 10.00pm and 7.00am. This increase potentially
exposes the Dargaville area to longer periods with limited local
ambulance cover.
However, since 1 October there has been on average one transfer
per week directly from the Dargaville community to Whangarei
Hospital, between 10.00pm and 7.00am which is less than the one
transfer every three days we had estimated.
It should be noted that had these patients been transported
directly to Dargaville Hospital several would potentially have
required subsequent transfer by ambulance to Whangarei
Hospital.
Every effort is made to have fully-crewed ambulances available.
In the event that an unstable patient requires urgent transfer and
there is only a single ambulance officer available, Dargaville
Hospital has undertaken to release a nurse to ride with and support
the patient on route to Whangarei Hospital.
Some instances have been reported where patients have refused
transport once they realise it means they will be taken directly to
Whangarei instead of Dargaville Hospital. While patients have the
right to refuse transport, they must realise this places ambulance
crews in a very difficult situation, especially if St John has
already provided treatment that they may need to monitor.
Ambulance officers always aim to act in the patients best
interests. If their advice is to go to hospital, or as an
alternate, be seen by the On Call GP, then we strongly advise
patients to do so. Failure to do this not only places the patients
health at risk, but also increases stress levels for the ambulance
officers as their protocols focus on the best care (and
destination) for their patients.
In December St John will be providing their 111 Clinical Hub
service in Northland which helps connect patients to the right care
at the right time. Non-urgent (not serious or immediately life
threatening) issues can often be managed faster which is better for
the patient and also frees up ambulance resources to focus on the
urgent and life threatening incidents.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS FOR THE LOCAL KAIPARA COMMUNITY?
The local community is benefiting by having dedicated hospital
specialists and senior medical officers providing their hospital
care. These doctors are also available to assist in emergencies
which will increase the emergency response capacity in the region.
These doctors are employed by Northland DHB which increases the
pool of medical staff who are available to provide cover in
Dargaville making the roster more sustainable and safer.
Remember, if you are feeling unwell please try and seek medical
attention as early as possible so that medical staff can provide
the care you need in a timely manner, and help prevent you getting
worse. Please call Dargaville Medical Centre on 09 439 8079 to be
put through to the triage nurse. For minor to moderate ailments
call the Dargaville Medical Centre on 09 439 8079 to be put through
to the triage nurse. For emergency and life-threatening conditions,
please phone 111 and ask for Ambulance.

A U T O S & M A R I N E
Generous start to a cracker summer by Andy Bryenton
Its all about community groups helping each other thats the
message which the Northern Wairoa Boating Club are promoting with a
seasonal donation to Saint Johns Ambulance staff.
The keen boaties raised over $600 for the first-response heroes
at Dargavilles ambulance station through their recent trivia night,
and thats just the beginning of a big calendar of events planned to
spice up the summer on the water.
Commodore Rodney Wilson is pleased to announce a full dance card
of nautical fun, designed to raise the profile of the
long-established club and interact with other boating groups around
the Southern Hemispheres largest harbour. Kicking off on the first
of January, the club will re-instigate a fine Kiwi tradition the
multi-species fishing contest. Anglers will vie to land the biggest
catch with rod and reel across a variety of elusive and tasty
fish such as gurnard and snapper. With a cost of only $15 for
adults and $5 for kids, this competition will last until April,
making this summers fishing a lot more interesting.
As the new year rolls around, the club will be preparing for
their annual regatta. Theyre looking to attract a record number of
boats of all kinds for this fun day on the February 6, with
pennants flying in the breeze, and of course some obligatory
celebrations when its time to drop anchor at the end of the day.
This stirring sight reminiscent of the
days when the river was thronged with traffic is a bit of a
contrast with that other fine Northern Wairoa Boating Club event,
the seagull race. Tiny horsepower and a big helping of courage help
these diminutive craft navigate from Ruawai to Dargaville on a
twohour course.
The Commodore and all club members wish their fellow boaties a
safe and happy holiday on the water this year, and invite new
members to join their fraternity, taking advantage of the
facilities they have established here in Dargaville.
