PAGE 2 Te Awamutu Courier, Tuesday, June 7, 2005 Sports’ mates pack in behind Mr Eight

There was no better supported run- ner at Waipa Races last Wednesday than Mr Eight. The Graeme Sanders-Debbie Sweeney trained three-year-old is owned by the Numberate Syndicate, comprising eight loyal Te Awamutu Rugby, Sports and Recreation Club members. Seven are fi rst time owners who were talked into the ‘Sport of Kings;’ by sen- ior lock Mark Sanders, son and brother of the trainers. Sanders was celebrating his 27th birthday on Wednesday and was hoping for a win to mark the oc- casion. Mr Eight gave them a great run for their money too, leading from the outset and only being headed halfway up the home straight by eventual winner, To Hell And Back, and nailed on the line by Liyaah Boy into third place. It was Mr Eight’s sixth start. He had a fi fth last year as a two-year-old and had won two trials and fi nished second in another leading up to last Wednes- day’s outing. He has shown enough to suggest he will soon put the Sports’ team in the winner’s circle. Other syndicate members are Sports A coach Martyn Steffert, club manager, Keith Parsons, David Muir (father of Deon Muir), club captain, Chris Hig- ginson, rugby club life member, Ian Davison and club sponsors Peter Glid- SPORTING CHANCE: Mr Eight and Daniel Hain (on rails) are collared in the run home by winner To Hell and Back and Noel Harris (red den and Willie Berkers. cap), while second placegetter Liyaah Boy storms down the outside with Michael Coleman (white cap). 158053AD Te Awamutu entrant looking for Big Break to help buy farm Committed to achieving his Break programme. one of 400 semi-fi nalists compet- been inspiring youth to pursue AUD$50,000. dream of owning his own farm by He was selected from more than ing for a Nescafé Big Break of their dreams by offering a total Ric must now submit a detailed the time he’s 30, Ric Awburn from 4400 entries across Australia and AUD$50,000, which will help prize pool of AUD$220,000.

TIME OUT TEAM (from left) beauty therapist Loren Bennett, massage therapist Jackie Dunderdale 158TC028/05 and hair stylist Kyleigh Tuatara. 158059AD Feeling jaded or stressed out? Need to have a break from the children or perhaps the wet, winter weather is getting you down? Take some time out at Pirongia’s newest business. ‘Time Out Massage and Beauty Centre’ is the brainchild of massage therapist Jackie Dunderdale. “I wanted to provide a place where peo- ple could come to have a range of treat- ments. The idea was to have somewhere they could relax in a peaceful atmosphere and enjoy the surroundings while they have an enjoyable, enhancing experience. “Pirongia is a perfect spot to do that and a place that is becoming known for its interesting variety of businesses.” The Time Out Massage and Beauty Cen- tre recently had a well attended open day, so that people could view the premises on the corner of McClure and Crozier Streets, meet the team and fi nd out more about the services they offer. These include hairstyling, massage therapy, beauty therapy and sunbeds. “It was a great success. Most people were surprised by the amount of room we have here and felt it was a wonderful set- ting for the business.” The centre currently has three special- ists, who all operate their own businesses, with enough room for a fourth to be added in the future. ● Jackie Dunderdale is a massage ther- apist. She graduated from the Shalimar Clinic School of Massage in 2001 and re- ceived a Certifi cate of Natural Therapies in Relaxation Massage with Honours. She has also completed courses in pregnancy massage, anatomy and physiology, as well as a short course in sport massage therapy. ● Kyleigh Tuatara has 17 years hairstyl- ing experience. She completed her appren- ticeship and received a trade certifi cate in hairdressing in 1992. Kyleigh is skilled in all aspects of hairstyling and enjoys fash- ion colouring and creative cutting. She works with Matrix, a professional range of haircare products and can advise the best products for your hair and /or lifestyle. ● Loren Bennett graduated in 2003 with national and international diplomas in Beauty Therapy. She offers traditional beauty therapy services such as mani- cures, pedicures, tinting and waxing, but her passion is skincare. She approaches the fi eld of beauty and skincare therapy from an holistic angle and is very inter- ested in the function of the skin in rela- tion to the internal body environment. She works with Janesce, a skincare range that is pure, active and organic. RELAXING EXPERIENCE Each of the team provides a comfortable, friendly, relaxing experience at the Time Out centre. As an opening special (for the month of June) they are offering discounts on their regular prices. Ask for details when you book an appointment at Time Out (ph 872 8073). For people looking for a special birth- day present or a thankyou gift, Time Out vouchers are also available to provide a special treat. Time out Massage and Beauty Therapy Centre is open from 9am-5pm Monday to Friday, with a late night Wednesday until 8pm. Other times are by arrangement/ ap- pointment, with special packages for balls, weddings etc. Te Awamutu Courier, Tuesday, June 7, 2005 PAGE 9 158TC022/05 PAGE 10 Te Awamutu Courier, Tuesday, June 7, 2005 Inverter control provides you Kickboxers legging with greater energy savings. it to world champs Three kickboxers with Te Awamutu con- nections have made the New Zealand squad for the world champion- ships in Hungary in GO IN THE DRAW December.
