“Young energy” needed
at GB Senior Citizens
Golden Bay Senior Citizens president
Bill Fishley has been wearing several official
hats over the past year, and is hopeful that
other members can step into vacant roles of
secretary and treasurer.
Though there are 44 fee-paying members
in Senior Citizens, Bill says they are struggling
to find people to help keep things ticking
over. He is hopeful that younger people (aged
65) will join and take on roles that may be
somewhat challenging for older members.
Members enjoy outings and events,
including a longer trip way in March. Bill
would like the club to be able to continue
offering a full range of activities to its
members.
The GB Weekly caught up with several
members playing indoor bowls and cards
at their hall (behind the Catholic Church).
A recently installed heat pump keeps the
well-used facility cosy for seniors and other
community members that gather there.
“We have a lot of fun here,” says Bill.
Members organise raffles and each bring
along an item for prizes, and they enjoy a
cuppa at afternoon tea time.
Bill can be reached at 525 8338.

The GB Weekly, Friday 25 SEPTEMBER 2015
In a vote of confidence in Golden Bay’s
retail economy, proprietors in a range of
Takaka businesses are changing aspects of
their operation.
Pohutukawa Gallery owner Marg Braggins
has moved her business from the Golden Bay
Museum building to the former Feel Good
Food building in the heart of the Takaka
CBD.
“I’m looking forward to doing business in
the middle of town and expanding my range
of products,” says Marg. “We’ll be open for
business in the new shop from Monday 28
September.”
~~~~~~~~
Pohutukawa Gallery will be replaced in
the museum building by Anita Hutchinson’s
Paradise Entertainment and Stitch ’n’ Sew
businesses.
Interestingly, Anita will be moving her
business from the former museum building
further up Commercial Street to the current
museum headquarters. Once she reopens in
her new premises in mid-October, she will
be using the huge historic wooden counter
that once graced Kirk’s haberdashery and
general store.
“The counter’s a real part of Takaka’s
heritage. I’m excited about it and the whole
move,” says Anita.
Anita has also agreed to become the agent
for The GB Weekly from her current premises,
and the agency arrangement will continue
when she opens for business in the museum
building.
“It’s good for continuity,” said Marg, the
manager of The GB Weekly. “People are used
to going there to place their ads . Parking can
be a little bit easier there too. We’re really
pleased that Anita will be our agent.”
Anita’s laundrette and ice businesses will
remain at the former Paradise Entertainment
site. David Hutchinson, Anita’s son, will take
them over and will convert the former DVD
store to a second-hand bookshop. This will
fulfil a lifelong dream for David, says Anita.
~~~~~~~~
The former RSA clubrooms in Commercial
Street will be extensively renovated and
converted to a multi-use building. Owner
Joanna Stevenson says: “[It] will be converted
into a two-storied building. The downstairs
part will be retail/office, either as a whole or
divided into two, rear and front, making an
exciting space for new or existing businesses
in 2016.”
~~~~~~~~
Joanna is also shifting her business, Golden
Bay Hair Design, out of the council-owned
building between De-Lish and Grasshopper.
Joanna says she will be entering a new kind
of business arrangement with Lisa Lewis of
The Hair Revolution.
“Lisa and I are collaborating to bring our
two businesses into one space.
This is a forward-thinking business model
that could be adopted by other businesses as
a way of minimising expenditure and utilising
commercial space to the best advantage of
both parties, say Joanna and Lisa.
Friday 2 October will be Golden Bay Hair
Design’s last day of trading at 24 Commercial
Street. Joanna and Lisa will be welcoming
clients to the Hair Revolution site in the
alley between First National Real Estate
and The Wholemeal Cafe from Monday 5
October. The new contact phone number
is 525 9898.
Tasman District Council property services
manager Jim Frater told The GB Weekly about
the building from which Joanna is moving.
“[It] was vested in council by the Crown
in about 1929 as a fire station. It must have
been a horse-drawn fire cart, going by the
size of the building. In the 1960s I recall the
TAB operating from the building.
“The building is of concrete block
construction and has a floor level which is
lower than the present code requires. Over
several years we’ve experienced problems
with moisture wicking into the building.
We’ve tried several fixes and they have lasted
a few years, but it’s an old building, which
was probably constructed to be just a fire
shed. We have yet to consider a future use,
but if it is to be occupied for commercial
purposes, we’ll have to consider what
remediation works need to be done.”

Milk and Honey
The GB Mountain Bike Club is wheeling out, for its fifth
year, the uniquely challenging “Milk and Honey” bike race.
The Labour weekend date gives locals the opportunity to ride
the two-discipline event and compete against elite riders from
around the country.
Teams or individuals can join the 60km ride, which begins
with an ascent up the Takaka Hill to the Canaan turnoff,
where road bikes are swapped for the mountainbike stretch
down the Rameka Track. The course reaches 880 metres at
its highest point, passes through ancient beech forest and a
rolling landscape with sinkholes and limestone outcrops.
Organiser Mark Godden says that although it’s a fundraiser
for the club, “the main reason is that it’s a really cool race
and we want to put it on for people”.
Club members can assist folks wanting to team up with
others for the ride, which will be on Sunday 25 October
from 8am-5pm. Enter by midnight Monday 20 October at
for the opening fee of $50 per individual. Later entries are
$75. Registration closes at midnight on 23 October. www.

TDC: Greater online payments options
People will soon be able to pay their
dog registration fees and most other
payments online through the Tasman
District Council’s website.
To enable the changes maintenance
to the credit card payment facility on the
council’s website will take place from
Monday 28 September until Thursday 1
October 2015, during which time the
payment facility will not be available.
Alternative options for payment
include internet and phone banking, as
well as over-the-counter transactions.
Currently ratepayers can pay their
rates and water bills online with a credit
card. Once the site upgrade is complete
online payments will be available for:
• Dog registrations
• Building and Resource Consents
• Parking tickets
• Debtors
In addition to the changes at the TDC
end, those setting up internet banking
payments will be able to search for the
council through their major bank’s preloaded list of organisations, meaning
you will not need to know the exact
bank account number. You will need
to know your type of payment and have
your account details handy.
The majority of payment types will
be able to be made by internet banking
including rates, water, dog registrations,
debtors, library fees and LIMs.
We apologise in advance for any
inconvenience while the upgrades are
being installed.

Farewell Spit’s old pines
outlive their usefulness
Wider view: Walkers taking the alternative path across Triangle Flat will be treated to an expanding vista of the Bay, as the curtain
of old pines is gradually pulled back. Photo: Jo Richards.
A familiar feature on the Golden Bay landscape is rapidly
disappearing. Loggers are removing the one-kilometre stand
of mature pines lining the inner beach at the base of Farewell
Spit.
The highly visible green battlement can be seen from
as far away as Separation Point and the top of Takaka Hill.
It has graced the edge of the Puponga horizon for several
decades, having being planted in the 1940s by Triangle Flat
farmer Steve Freeman.
On the first day of felling operations, The GB Weekly
watched Tumeke Logging boss Dan Solly take his long-bar
chainsaw and make the first incision into the trunk of a 30mtall old man pine. Less than a minute later, the 70-year-old
tree hit the ground, flinging up sand and dust and making a
thud that reverberated across the adjacent paddock. A trio of
chainsaws quickly stripped the trunk and cut it into lengths
ready to be carted off by logging truck.
Dan estimates the job will take some time, despite the
loggers’ obvious efficiency. “We’ll be here for around a
month, working five to six days a week.”
Cutting up the gnarly timber, however, is positively speedy
compared to ploughing through the prerequisite red tape: The
documented occurrence of middens, ovens, occupation areas
and other features associated with pre-1900 human activity at
Triangle Flat required DOC to obtain authority from Heritage
New Zealand – a process that took over a year to complete.
To ensure compliance, DOC archaeological expert Steve
Bagley and local iwi will be regularly onsite to monitor the
logging activity.
Although planted post-1900, the 20th century pines are
nevertheless part of the Spit’s rich history; Steve Freeman,
who bought up Triangle Flat in 1934, planted them to help
prevent coastal erosion (sound familiar?) and to provide
shelter. In their old age, these tall protectors have now
become more of a liability than an asset, according to DOC
biodiversity manager Hans Stoffregen.
“During storms they fall and pull up their root-balls, which
causes erosion.”
That’s not the only problem, says Hans. “They are
becoming dangerous for people walking along the beach.
And broken fences allow livestock to escape from Puponga
Farm Park and wander about on the beach.”
Furthermore, he explains that the presence of these
introduced plants affects the ecology of the spit. “They act
as a seed source for the spit. We spend a lot of effort pulling
small pines.”
Although the base of the spit will appear rather barren after

Chiefs to perform in the Bay
From a chance meeting in a Paekakariki café in 2012,
four singer/songwriter bandleaders, Wayne Mason, Rob
Joass, Laura Collins and Andrew London, hatched a
cunning plan to join forces and present a show featuring
their favourite original songs, without their usual
“Indians”. Although working in slightly different genres the
Chiefs discovered enough common ground to compile a
repertoire that brings together elements of jazz, country,
folk, blues and good old rock’n’roll, and showcases some
of the best songwriting New Zealand has to offer.
Wayne Mason won the song of the millennium with his
song Nature, first recorded in the 1960s. He is a founding
member of the legendary Warratahs.
Rob Joass leads two groups; The Shot Band and
Hobnail. He has experienced decades of constant touring
through the highways and back roads of New Zealand.
Andrew London is best known for his trio Hot Club
Sandwich, whose repertoire consists mostly of Andrew’s
whimsical, humourous and satirical ditties.
Laura Collins is known for her soulful voice. Her
instinctive and empathetic vocal contributions to the other
Chief’s songs are highlights of the show.

Timber! A Farewell Spit pine fall to the ground. Photo: Jo Richards.
Dan has done his work, Hans explains that this should only be
temporary. “The plan is to regenerate and replant with native
trees, which will give it a more native look and help to protect
the archaeological sites.” Meanwhile, the old pine stumps will
be left in place to maintain beachfront integrity.
By the end of their first week, Dan and his team had
processed and removed scores of trees, with piles of logs
stacked at the car park - now a temporary storage yard where
the timber awaits onward transport. As a result, access to
the beach from the car-park is temporarily closed, but an
alternative route has been opened across the paddocks of
Triangle Flat. As the curtain of old pines is gradually pulled
back, walkers taking this path will be treated to an everwidening vista of the Bay

We have been truly fortunate to live in Golden Bay since
1990. During that time we have walked the beaches, fished
and played in the rock pools with our kids. I’ve worked a
bit in the fishing industry in mussels and other shellfish and
crabbing. While at sea we have seen incredible numbers of
marine mammals and schools of kahawai in feeding group
of tens of hectares at a time.
A few weeks ago I took a walk around Patons Rock and
was shocked. The former masses of mussels are gone. The
rock pools are devoid of life and the forests of kelp are no
longer there. Maybe I shouldn’t be shocked as I no longer
see paddle crabs or flounders. Scallops are virtually gone
and most material on the seabed is dead including oysters,
whelks and so on. I no longer see shoals of small fish of any
quantity as were common 15 years ago. Even the common
seaweed no longer washes up in any quantity.
Has anyone else noticed the lack of sealife? Does anyone
else get the impression that there is something seriously
wrong in paradise?

was, of course, “Overwork!” What was meant was someone

Techy of choice for The GB Weekly
was asking someone else to do something they shouldn’t
be expected to do. But this saying clearly has its origin in a
reference to the days of slavery when “black boys” did a lot
of overworking (and died for it). I would expect these words
could offensive to descendants of slaves and others. Being
aware of its racist overtones, I don’t use the saying.
The horticultural columnist in Lifestyle Block magazine
recently apologised for using the terms Black Boy Peach and
Kaffir Lime, and put out the challenge to take what he claimed
was racist terminology out of our horticulture. While I think
the name for the peach is probably not ever used knowingly
in a racist way, once its origin is realised, why wouldn’t we
want to find another name?
Let’s take up the challenge and be the first region in
New Zealand to find a better name for one of our favourite
stonefruits. I’m not yet familiar with the lime. This summer
I will be offering friends and neighbours some of our nice
home-grown Red-Fleshed peaches. Any other suggestions
for a new name?

Sock nets
Your somewhat biased report on sock nets (GBW 18/9),
and by intimating that all of us that do use them are solely in
it to make money, being largely respoinsible for the decline
in whitebait numbers, has not taken into account a number
of other factors that are contributing to the decline, if any.
These factors could be seen to include the so-called
cashed-up retired baby boomers with access to mobile
homes, 4WDs, quad bikes, alloy boats, time and better access
to rivers; the unmonitored amounts of nitrogenous-based
fertilisers being poured on to the ground; leachates from
agricultural chemicals; urban, industrial and rural wastes;
indiscriminate irrigation; lowered water tables; overstocking
or rural holdings; over-the-top 1080 applications; the El Nino
effects, and drainage of wetlands (somewhat alleviated by the
Clean Streams Accord).
How can we, as whitebaiters, help to alleviate the
decline? I, and I know others, would advocate a two-month,
September-October season, and an adoption of the West
Coast regulations over the whole country. The photo in last
week’s article showed exactly the way those on the coast do
not use a sock net screen outside, more than three metres of
screen, and water between land and screen. Also adoption
of no-fish areas, pegging the extent to which rivers can be
fished and perhaps encouraging the use of nitrogen-fixing
grazing grasses.
So, you naysayers, as you contemplate your top-of-theline gear all designed to enhance your chances, regard the
sock net in the same light and let us work together to find an
amicable solution that benefits us all.

Time to come out of hibernation Golden Bay!
The GB Weekly, in collaboration with some of its
advertisers, is offering readers a month-long “eating out”
experience.
Twelve eatery establishments across the Bay have made
some juicy offers to reward their regular customers and tempt
future customers, until the end of October. The vouchers
with the offers on them are printed on this page. Vouchers
are valid from today.
“All the Bay’s businesses are gearing up for the busy
season,” said GB Weekly editor Marg Braggins. “We
encourage locals to come out of hibernation and visit these
local eateries. We hope that plenty of people get out and take
advantage of the vouchers.”
When you visit the participating businesses, take the cutout voucher from the The GB Weekly with you. Write your
name and phone number on the back of the voucher when
you present it to the business and The GB Weekly will conduct

“Cultural capital” is key to
successful transition to school
For new entrants
transitioning from an earlychildhood setting and into
school, Dr Bradley Hannigan
said at a recent workshop
that the determining factor
for success is the “cultural
capital” new entrants take
with them when they cross
the border into school.
Dr Hannigan’s recent talk
at Golden Bay Kindergarten
highlighted the fact that a
child’s success is not linked
to their ability to manipulate
numbers and letters.
“It’s actually linked to their
ability to form friendships,”
said the Nelson Tasman
kindergartens’ education
advisor. “And it’s even better
if they have got friendships
across that border already that
they can transition into, and
they will be more successful
than those who do not have
those close connections.”

“If children take nothing else from an early-childhood those gaps and pass on the information to parents.”
Her advice for parents is to visit schools as much as

Primary students take to the slopes
On Wednesday 16
September eight Takaka
Primary School children from
Years 4 to 6 participated
in the Solander Rainbow
Inter-Primary School Ski
Championships at Rainbow
ski field. This was the first
year the school had entered
this race.
In the junior section (Years
1-6) two teams were the
Takaka Torpedoes (Phoebe
Potts, Luca Turner, Stella
Molloy, James Hartshorne)
and the Takaka Speedsters
(Hazel Molloy, Reggie-Lee
Baker, Tim van der Meer,
Hollie Gray). Each skier had
two runs down the slalom
course.
At the beginning of this
term, 52 Years 5 and 6 children
travelled to Rainbow Ski Field
to learn the basic skills of
skiing. They had lessons in
the morning and practised
their skills in the afternoon.

Pohara Hall
It is disappointing to find out through the grapevine
that council have refused the Golden Valley Country
Music group access to the Pohara Hall for their annual
competition Queen’s Birthday weekend next year. It is
disappointing to have had none of the promised public
consultation and also disappointing to find that there is
a lack of transparency from council about decisions that
affect our community, our families and our businesses.
It is clearly not from lack of trying that our hall sits
unused as I understand there is a wedding booked for
November, also next January and January 2017 (and the
music awards that have been denied access). This is a
viable community hall that serves a variety of purposes to
the Bay including the Civil Defence during the floods.
Aside from the personal use of the hall there is a flowon affect within the Pohara township. The country music
awards are the last big financial push before we fall into
the lean winter months. This income is a well needed
boost to help us through the winter season. Have council
considered the impact of this loss to the businesses within
Pohara? Have you been to Pohara in winter?
We have also heard that the hall is to be used as a
museum to house the waka that was found on the coast. Is
this correct? Would it not be better to display the waka at
the marae? Or extend the town museum to house it? This
could all be gossip but again without some transparency
from council, it’s all we have.
As for the people with the bookings, my understanding
is they have a legal and binding contract with council for
the use of this hall. Weddings don’t just happen; they’re
planned, sometimes years in advance.
I would like to ask for expressions of interest from
anyone interested in forming a Pohara “community”
Hall committee. Someone with a background from the
Tarakohe Cement Works would be helpful so that we
can find out a little more about the “gifting” of the hall to
the council. Someone with a background in law would
also be helpful.
Please contact me at home if you are able to put
your name forward and I’ll try and book the Pohara
“Community” hall for our first meeting.

Inaugural Marble Mountain shield
Golden Bay's 2nd XI men's football team closed their
season on a high note against Wakefield, bringing home The
Marble Mountain shield in a dominant 5-1 victory.
This the first meeting for The Marble Mountain shield
which will now be competed for twice a year, at the beginning
and end of the football calendar. The shield highlights the
growing relationship between these clubs.
The early encounters were even with both sides creating
chances. GB opened the scoring through Mitchell Winter
with a smart finish after being one on one with the keeper.
Wakefield pulled back shortly after with a thunderbolt of a
freekick. GB were particularly good on the counter attack
using the fast men on the wings to create good chances.
GB’s second goal came through a Henning Hack cross that
left Chris Von Roy one-on-one with the keeper, rounding the
keeper he slotted home. The third GB goal was the highlight
of the day. Mitchell Winter was again on the score sheet as
he fired home a screamer from 30 yards out. Fionn Murphy
followed up with the fourth goal with a well placed shot
finding its way into the top corner passing the despairing
keeper. Timo Milne completed the strong showing after a
cross found its way to the back post where he put a knee
shot into the top corner.
The next shield game will be in Golden Bay at the
beginning of next season. The Golden Bay Football Club
prize-giving will take place this Sunday at The Mussel Inn
from 2pm for both U-17 teams and both men's sides.

down to earth: Growing microgreens
We’re in an El Nino weather cycle this year, which suggests
a dry summer. Prepare now by adding loads of organic
matter to your beds. For vegetables, compost is best, ideally
your own that you made last spring or later (provided you
turned it to enhance decomposition). For fruits, use woody
compost made by shredding your prunings from shelter and
ornamental trees.
Right now we’re having a typical spring with wet periods,
so digging over the garden may be a challenge. Your greens
and other vegetables may have bolted too. Why not try sowing
microgreens inside and avoid getting wet and dirty?
The process is the same as sowing seed for growing crops,
except that you sow more thickly. Get some seed-raising mix
or make you own: One part good-quality, well-broken-down
sieved compost; one part coarse granite sand; one part fine
broken-down seagrass or peat. Mix well and moisten.
Select a suitable container: seedling pots or punnets,
bottoms of plastic bottles, plastic biscuit trays, tin cans or
egg cartons. Poke holes in the bottoms. If you care about
aesthetics, try pottery pots, provided they have drain holes.
Part-fill them with seed-raising mix and sow with alfalfa,
mung bean, fenugreek, rainbow chard, amaranth, sunflower;
any brassicas like radish, mustard or kale; celery, lettuce and
mesclun mix, rocket and herbs such as basil, coriander, or
parsley. And wheatgrass too.
Cover slightly by sieving some seed-raising mix over them,
pat down and cover with moist paper until they sprout. Water
with a misting bottle, especially the edges, which dry out
more. Overwatering can cause damping off disease.
Keep on the windowsill in good light. Harvest once they
get their first true leaves (not the two first cotyledons you see).
Use scissors and trim off what you need. Some will resprout
and provide several cuts. Otherwise, stagger your sowing of
different varieties to ensure continuous supply. This way you
have yummy greens at your fingertips, ready to add to salads
or as a side dish.

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, and, as
not all the piles currently meet the ground the selling price is likely
to be pretty small too!
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!
1A1F
Secreted away at Parapara we have found a
cute wee bach furnished with everything you
need for a great holiday at the beach. More
private than most this two bedroom Versatile
Cottage sits on a large elevated bush clad
section overlooking the bay to the north and has
direct walking access to the inlet to the south
west via the Reserve.

PATON'S ROCK TREASURE
From the moment you pull in the tar sealed
driveway you can tell this well presented property
has something special about it.
The gardens are a delight and the immaculately
kept home is positioned for privacy and to the
sun, and from the first floor living you enjoy 180
degree views of the sea. The 60m2 boat shed
and fishermans set up are second to none.
The LIM has been provided, contact me for

LUCKY LAST AT LIGAR BAY
If you love boating and you have an eye for a
bargain then make sure you view this property
as soon as you can. There are 2 living areas, 2
bathrooms and 3 bedrooms. The layout offers
the potential for shared living. You simply can't
go wrong here in Collingwood so close to the
wharf, boat ramp and beach with a double lock
up garage, single internal access garage and
loads of off street parking.
This is the last undeveloped beachfront section
at Ligar Bay and if you are lucky you just might
be the one who gets the chance to build here!
Positioned across the road from the Esplanade
Reserve, this 809sqm residential section offers a
front row seat to some of the most beautiful
scenery in NZ. The backdrop is semi-rural and
the elevation of the land improves your view of
the golden sand and clear waters of the bay.
