Naracoorte Pistol Club
By Vanessa Mikutta Thank you to The News for their generous donation to our Club. With these funds we plan to start the next stage of the upgrade to our 50m range framework which was started at our last working bee. Our members are working hard to keep the facilities up to a high standard with many other projects to be started in the coming year. We are always on the lookout for new members – one way to do this is by holding “Come and Try” days. These are open to any group or individual. Our last one was held on the 20th May and was well attended. If you have any questions please contact our club via Facebook or by emailing naracoortepistolclub@gmail.com Editor’s Note: With this Give Back donation of $500 we have reached $99,799 donated to local service, arts and sports groups. Please register anytime by emailing […]
50/1 shot continues stable’s roughies record
By Paul Mitchell A 50/1 success last week added another chapter to the Jaensch stable’s history of producing long-priced winners. Debutante Gusty Way saluted at the Murray Bridge midweek meeting (paying $55.60 on the TAB tote), but local mother-son training team Sue and Jason Jaensch hardly fell off their chairs after the one-length win. “No, we weren’t surprised,” said Naracoorte-based Sue. “We knew he went alright.” Gusty Way’s win sparked memories of the stable’s past winning longshots, headlined by a remarkable two-day double that saluted at odds of around 6000/1. “I went to Melbourne one day and won a race at 75/1 with Bronze Roulette, who went on to win the Swan Hill Cup,” Sue recalled. “And the next day we had a maiden horse win at 82/1.” Sue recalls Madja blowing punters out of the water at 100/1 at Stawell one day, but a Naracoorte Cup roughie is her […]
Statement by Nick McBride – Member for MacKillop
I have come to the conclusion that it is no longer tenable for me to remain in the Liberal party. I have been a proud member of this party for more than 30 years, so this has been an extremely difficult decision for me. I believe my constituents and electorate will be better served by me working as the Independent Member for MacKillop. My primary aim is to achieve better outcomes for the people of the MacKilllop electorate. I believe a party should work together regardless of individual beliefs to achieve good results for their community. Despite what the Liberal party may say, there are factional pressures at play which have resulted in disunity. I understand some people may be disappointed with my decision, given I was elected as a Liberal member. I hope those people can understand I have found it increasingly difficult to represent the party that I […]
Minister admits challenges at hospital
By Nasik Swami South Australian minister for Health and Wellbeing has admitted that infrastructure issues at the Naracoorte Hospital “have been long ignored”. Chris Picton said the issues would be fixed soon, assuring the public that many plans have been put in place that will address the most urgent and critical needs at the hospital. Responding to questions from The News, Mr Picton said, unlike the previous Liberal Government, the Malinauskas Labor Government was investing in regional health, including at Naracoorte. “There’s no doubt there are infrastructure issues at the hospital that have been long ignored. This is why we have committed $8m towards the first stage of the redevelopment of Naracoorte Hospital. “We were able to fund this project when we cancelled the previous plans for a $662m city basketball stadium and invested those funds into health.” Mr Picton explained that plans for the first stage of upgrades to […]
