SALE YARDS CELEBRATING
 50 YEARS OF HISTORY

  The Jamestown saleyards were opened
  in their present position in 1969 the yards
  were built jointly by Elders, Dalgety’s
  and Southern farmers. With the first sale
  in February of that year. The yards were
  moved to their current spot after two
  previous positionings, one where the
  current caravan park is and then where
  Perry’s fuel depot of today. When the yards
  were opened they would cater for sheep
  and lambs, pigs and a separate complex for
  cattle. The majority of sheep in the earlier
  years were walked to the sale yards or
  brought in by rail as most trucks were only
  two and three decks. Continued on pg3

SALE YARD HISTORY CONT...                                            1986
                     Continued from Front Page...

The catering for the yards was carried out by people from the
Home for the Age and the standard sandwiches was Mutton &
Chutney. The canteen and office complex was a simple tin shed
on the eastern side of the yards which would go under water in
the event of a rainy sale. The yards continue in their early form until
1994, when several neighbouring town saleyards were closed,
and the Crystal Brook sale yards were brought to Jamestown
and re-erected at the Southern end. In 1996 extra trees were
planted for shade in this new section. In 2000 a watering system
was introduced to the yards to minimise dust, and in 2009 the
four ramps were replaced with electric winches. In the same year
a new canteen, office complex with a toilet and shower system
was built and financed jointly by the agents, council & the federal
government together with the vendors that sold sheep though
the yards in the form of a levy. In 2014 a huge renovation to the         2019
yards took place and some of the original yards were totally
replaced.

The Jamestown saleyards have been operated jointly by
Landmark and Elders during these 50 years on a regular monthly
and by monthly basis. It is a testament to the local producers
and numerous staff that have worked through these yards that
they still exist today where nearly every other saleyard complex
in surrounding towns have almost all been demolished. The
Thursday market days represent a boost for the local shop
keepers in the town with people travelling near and far for the
sale and a general catch up.

During the last 50 years we have seen the lows of the sheep
market where entire pens of sheep were sold for as low as $20
per pen to present day times where we are seeing numerous
pens selling to more than $200 per head. From the early days
with the sheep not only being railed to the yards but also the
majority railed from the sale, to today where we see four deckers,
B doubles, road trains & AB Triples all loading into and out of the
sale.

During the 50th Year the agents have introduced an interfaced
sale with Auctions Plus participating in the physical sale. This has
proven to be very successful in the couple of times that is has
been used with buyers being able to logon and access the sale
from far and remote areas. With this new innovate selling process
we see the longevity of the Jamestown Sale yards complex.

NORTHERN SHOWS
  ANNUAL PRESENTATION
         NIGHT
MC George Seppelt welcomed 120 guests to the Clare Town Hall
for the annual Northern Shows presentation dinner.
During the evening awards were presented to both junior and
senior winners of the aggregate prizes in various sections of show
participation. There was also the recognition of dedicated and
untiring contributions to the show movement with two names
being added to the Achiever’s Award again this year.
The Rural Ambassadors and Young Rural Ambassadors representing
various northern shows were also judged on the night. Each entrant         Young Rural Ambassadors from Left to Right - Chloe Hilder (winner)

faced a panel of judges during the afternoon and on the night was
interviewed by the MC in front of the dinner guests. Once again the
show societies put forward a group of excellent young people to
represent them and the judges struggled to make their decision.
The winners will represent Northern Shows in Adelaide later this
year where they will compete against Ambassadors from around
the state.
Presentations made on the night were:
Young Rural Ambassador (16-19 years) winners were: Chloe Hilder
from Quorn Show and Garry Schutz from Eudunda Show with
runner up being Sasha Selleck from Gawler Show.
Rural Ambassador (20-30 years) winners were Sharna Juett from
Clare Show and Karl Milde from Eudunda Show with runner up
being Jade Smith from Gawler Show

We have made smoothies, pizza, biscuits, fruit salad and scooping
out balls of watermelon. We practiced lots of skills including
cutting up the fruit and rolling out the biscuit dough. Cooking
is always a favourite activity for the children. It is great for math
skills, with measuring and weighing, and they are more likely to try
different foods if they have helped cook or even grow them.
We have explored with different textures and getting involved
in some messy play. We constructed a beach with the inclusion
of sandy playdough. This playdough felt a little different to the
smooth playdough we normally explore. We have also explored
with jelly slime. When we first took the jelly from the fridge it was
so cold it even had a thin layer of ice on it. Once the ice melted
everyone had a go squishing the jelly through their fingers. We
even found some jelly worms. We used our hands to paint some
pictures. We found that by using our fingers we could make lots
of squiggly lines. We have also mixed colours into the soapy foam.
As we used the whisks we watched as the foam went from white
to many shades of the rainbow.
We have continued to occupy the mud patch, adding more and
more water and creating a wonderful muddy mess! We have
started to see the Nature Play onesies and some gum boots come
