  • Cootamundra War Memorial
    COOTAMUNDRA WAR MEMORIAL ALBERT PARK – HOVELL STREET COOTAMUNDRA WORLD WAR 1 HONOUR ROLL Compilation by Kevin Casey, Breakfast Point 2012 COOTAMUNDRA WAR MEMORIAL – WORLD WAR 1 A marble obelisk and other memorials have been erected in Albert Park in memory of those citizens of Cootamundra and District who served and died in the defence of Australia during times of conflict. The names of many of those who served in World Wars 1 and 2 are engraved and highlighted in gold on the obelisk. This account has been prepared to provide a background to the men associated with the Cootamundra district who served and died in World War 1. While it is acknowledged that an exhaustive list of local men who served in the war has not been compiled, this account briefly highlights the family and military backgrounds of those who did and who are recorded on the obelisk. Other men not listed on the obelisk but who were associated with the district and who also served and died in the war have been identified in the course of the research. They are also included in this account. No doubt further research will identify more men. Hopefully this account will jog a few memories and inspire further research into the topic. An invitation is extended to interested people to add to the knowledge of those who served Those who served came from a wide range of backgrounds. A number of the men had long family associations with the district and many have family members who are still residents of the district.

  • A Response to the Draft Guide to the Murray Darling Basin Plan
    A Response to the Draft Guide to the Murray Darling Basin Plan 152 Oaklands Road Berrigan 2712 NSW ‐ 03 5885 2392 0416 156429 [email protected] 1 | Page A Brief History of West Corurgan P.I.D: The concept of the West Corurgan Private Irrigation District was first recorded in a document ‘The Case for Corugan’ published in 1938. From that point the commitment of the proponents of the scheme was unwavering right up to the commissioning of the West Corurgan Private Irrigation District on the 12th of April 1969. The District straddles the municipalities of Berrigan, Corowa, Jerilderie and Urana, covering a tract of land 212,000 hectares, delivering irrigation to 21,200 hectares via 565 kilometres of open channel. The Headworks is located 10 kilometres downstream of Corowa, lifting water 13 metres via 5 pumps into the Main Channel. From there the water is dispersed via gravity over the entire length and breadth of the district as far northwest as the Billabong Creek. The district is bounded by the townships of Berrigan, Corowa, Oaklands, Jerilderie and Urana. Agribusiness in the district includes but is not limited to beef, dairy, lamb and pork production, wool as well as rice, wheat, barley, potato and fodder cropping. Future agribusiness enterprises include but are not limited to fruit and vegetable production utilising open and reticulating irrigation practices together with wine grapes, flowers and aquaculture enterprises. The W.C.P.I.D is privately owned and fully funded by its membership. It does not enjoy the benefit of any funding or financial assistance by the State or Federal government.

  • Forum Media Statement 20 09 07
    MEDIA STATEMENT - SEPTEMBER 2007 Making progress in battle with depression Rural communities have embraced a program to increase awareness of depression and how it can be treated, according to a psychologist who works closely with farming families. “The word is slowly spreading that if someone on the land is having trouble coping with today’s pressures, then help is readily available,” said Paul Templeton, of the Riverina Counselling Service based at Wagga Wagga, NSW. “While the program is aimed at helping farming families, it is great that it also delivers practical help to other members of the community who may not be travelling well.” Mr Templeton, who also lectures in mental health at Charles Sturt University in Wagga Wagga, addressed the fortieth community depression-awareness forum organised by fertiliser company Incitec Pivot. The milestone forum, held at Cootamundra on 19 September, attracted 600 participants. It was organised in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Cootamundra and Thompsons Rural Supplies. Mr Templeton told the forum that, despite a good start to the winter cropping season, many farmers were anxious about prospects for their current crops. “The good start to the season could have created false hope if we don’t get follow-up rain soon to enable growers to take advantage of the good prices for their crops,” he said. “It is quite possible that this is putting them under more stress that the drought did.” Mr Templeton said an array of support services were available to help people who felt they were not coping well with pressure. The Cootamundra community forum was initiated by Tania Baldock, a local mother of three who has close knowledge of depression and the potentially tragic outcomes it can produce if untreated.
