ARARUA PONY CLUB UPDATE
Ararua Pony Club has started its 2010 season with 14 riding
members as well as 15 adult members. This season we have
decided to introduce rides out or treks.
Our first Pony Club trek was on Sunday 7that Mooney farms.
We trekked over the farm to the Kaipara Harbour, swam the
horses , got very wet, then put our mounts in the yard, had lunchon the Mooneys expansive deck and rode back again. There
were no incidents thanks to good riding and sensible horses.
Well done kids!
Pony club is about every 10 days incorporating Wednesday and
Saturdays. We ride at the NKAA grounds at Paparoa.
Wednesdays rallies start at 5.00pm and Saturdays rallies go
from 10.30am to 2.30pm. However these days could change
depending on the wishes of the members so ring Beth on 09
4316 850 to find out when pony club is on.
We have three senior riders , Jason Ball, Raquelle Gibberd, andHannah Underwood who are out and about representing not only
their pony club but their area in Dressage, eventing and
Show jumping. Hannah also coaches at Pony club rallies.
We have riders planning to sit D, C, C+ and B certificates this
season, as well as Pony Club team events in games and Dressage
and Show jumping coming up.
Our Christmas rally will be Saturday December 17th. This will
be a Games Day.

Rt Revd Ross Bay, Anglican Bishop of Auckland,
Eileen Parsons.
On Sunday November 14th the Bishop of AucklandThe Rt. Revd Ross Bay conducted a special Confirma-
tion Service at Holy Trinity Anglican Church Maun-
gaturoto. The church was packed with friends and
visitors supporting the two confirmation candidates
Karlene Story and Eileen Parsons, who both affirmed
their faith in Christ and committed themselves to His
service.
The Bishop, on his first visit to the parish since his
election last year, led the congregation in renewing
their baptism vows, before going on to the laying on
of hands for the candidates. In his stirring and chal-
lenging address, spiced with good humour, he encour-
aged all christians to remain faithful to their
convictions and to demonstrate in their lives the
unique qualities that faith in Jesus Christ gives us.
The service was led by theVicar of the Paparoa Parish,
The Revered Rodney Dunlop, who highlighted the
fact that this was the first Confirmation Service held
in Maungaturoto for over 10 years, making it a his-
toric occasion. The songs all sung with 'gusto' were
the choices of Karlene and Eileen, and captured theirown expressions of faith and conviction.

I am not alone at all, I thought. I was never
alone at all. And that, of course, is the
message of Christmas. We are never alone.
Not when the night is darkest, the wind cold-
est, the world seemingly most indifferent. For
this is still the time God chooses.Taylor Caldwell

Trouble getting an appointment when you feel you need one?
We really do care about your health needs.
As you are aware, there is a countrywide shortage of GPs. Many
rural clinics are solely nurse run. We are doing our best to cover
all of our clinics well. We have highly trained practice nurses
who are helping us streamline the process.
If we are fully booked and you feel that you need to be seen on
that particular day, please come in for a nurse assessment. The
nurse will give treatment or advice where he/she can. If you need
to see a doctor, the urgency of your situation will be evaluated
and an appointment will be given to you within an appropriatetime frame. We will accommodate you in Maungaturoto and
Paparoa if we can, but you may need to travel into Wellsford if
appropriate, bearing in mind your ability to travel.
Do not hesitate to contact us if you feel unwell and feel that you
need to be seen urgently. Please inform the nurse or receptionist
that takes your call the urgency of the situation.
We also encourage those of you who have chronic conditions to
book your repeat check-ups well ahead of the time that your
medication is due to run out.
We hope that this message clarifies our system for you.
The Team at Coast to Coast Health Care
St John inspires youth to succeed
One of New Zealands fastest growing youth programmes is in-
spiring youth to succeed, set goals and plan for their future.
The St John youth programme has a membership that exceeds
5,500 and its growing, says St John Northern Region Youth
Manager Christine Benson.
She believes the growth is due to the significant time and effortvolunteer youth leaders contribute and the way in which St John
responds to trends and needs of youth.
St John Youth programmes are about having fun, discovering
new things and working together. We cater for 6 to 18 year olds
in a co-educational youth programme that provides a safe and
secure environment where young people can learn first aid,
health care, self discipline, leadership and general life skills, she
says.
St John has adjusted and modified the delivery of its youth pro-
gramme including the release of new resources, the use of mod-
ern technologies and structures that ensure its leadership is intouch with the communities it serves.
We are very proud to announce our newest division will be open-
ing in your area in the new school year 2011. It will be based at
our newly revamped Ambulance Station, with one of the opera-
tional volunteers also becoming our new division leader, Jodie
Hosford.
We welcome all enquiries and are planning an open afternoon
before the Santa Parade on the 4thDecember. There will be CPR
demostrations with manakins, give aways, colouring competition
and lots of exciting stuff. Here you will be able to ask questions
see more of what we do and and talk to our new leaders. Anyonewelcome. Look for our flyers around town closer to the event.
One of the ethos behind St John Youth is preparing young people
to be successful adults and building self esteem.
Evidence of the programmes success can be seen in the skill and
enjoyment of cadets competing in a drill or first aid competition,
and examples of our young people saving lives in emergency
situations, Says Ms Benson.
She believes youth development is the responsibility of many
including family/whanau, schools, the wider community and peer
groups.
St John can play a vital role in youth development, our pro-grammes wont be for everyone but there are many young people
who enjoy and benefit from being part of St John and prosper
from the involvement with their peers in a group environment,
she says.
You can contact Jodie Hosford on 431 9090.

Obituary
Ian Frederick Cullen. Aged 80
A willing and enthusiastic former resident and farrier
of Maungaturoto. Active and respected in many or-
ganisations in the district, served in St John Ambu-
lance for 26 years, he had a big hand in alterations to
the station adding on a garage as well as normal du-
ties.
After retiring to Whangarei he joined the WhangareiAuxiliary Ambulance Service and was often seen
driving their shuttle vehicle between Whangarei and
Onerahi Airport.
Being very clever at engineering he became involved
in building support equipment for the Northland Res-
cue Helicopter. He was a volunteer at the Kauri Mu-
seum in Matakohe in the engineer boys team restor-
ing machinery and all sorts of exhibits. He travelled
to Matakohe most Wednesdays, took home work to
do in his well-equipped workshop to turn out unavail-able vital parts on his lathe for various restorations.
He also built a very popular exhibit, a jersey cow,
very lifelike with twitching tail and wagging ears,
which was installed into a replica cowshed.
In earlier years Ian took up flying with the Otamatea
Aero Club and in recent times has been building his
lifes dream a real aeroplane. Unfortunately, in
spite of his determination, life ran out before it was
quite finished.
He was a real perfectionist in everything he did so
has left his mark in many fields. Other interests
were yachting and in younger days, motor sports,
especially hill-climbing races in which he did very
well coming 4th in the New Zealand hill-climb
championships one year.
A devoted family man, Ian leaves his wife Lois, two
daughters and their families.
He will be sorely missed in many quarters but well
remembered. Well done Ian.
There is already a mannequin model of Ian in the
Kauri
Museum, a fitting memorial.
