TUESDAY 16TH MAY 2017

Join Tim Mander and the Buzz in a walk for Youngcare. We want to welcome the Youngcare residents to Albany Creek by raising funds for a special purpose vehicle.

When I first saw the Youngcare sign up on the fence on the corner of Leitchs Road and Albany Creek Road, I thought that it was fantastic that Youngcare was building a facility in Albany Creek. For those who are not aware, 7,000 young Aussies currently live in aged care because there is nowhere else equipped to provide the support they need. Youngcare is committed to driving change and developing practical alternatives to aged care. Through their building program they are creating appropriate homes – vibrant, modern living spaces where young people can live young and independent lives, with appropriate and dignified care.

A new Youngcare facility at Albany Creek will open soon and Walk for Youngcare will raise funds for a special purpose vehicle for the eight young people who will be calling Albany Creek home.

Inspired by Shevaune Conry, a young woman who had contracted multiple sclerosis, by the age of 33, she had reached a stage where her beloved husband David was no longer able to safely care for her at home. Shevaune and David were faced with the agonizing decision for Shevaune to move out of their home and move into aged care, because it was the only place that could provide for her care needs and simply, no other alternative was available.

Shevaune’s husband David and his three mates – Matthew Lawson, Nick Bonifant and Simon Lockyer– vowed to change the system. They set out to create a brighter future for Shevaune and the thousands of other young Aussies like her, and so Youngcare was born in 2005.

Albany Creek Buzz

When Tim Mander (local state member for Albany Creek) approached the Buzz and asked for our support in raising funds for the new residents of Youngcare, we were delighted to help. Tim’s idea was that we would have a “Walk for Youngcare” which will take place on May 16th. After discussions it was decided we would try and raise enough money to buy a special purpose vehicle for the new residents of Youngcare Albany Creek.

The response to date has been fantastic and as of Tuesday 2nd of May, the fundraising total has reached over $11,000 with 40 local businesses making donations.

If you are in a position to help, you can make a donation at

A new way to train F45 Training Albany Creek opened on 18th of March at the Woolworths Market Place, and there has been a great response to this exciting new way to train.

The F45 concept is simple, members join a 45 minute High-Intensity, Circuit Training workout class which runs from early in the morning at one hour intervals. There are 27 different, 45 minute workout experiences. This combination of interval, cardiovascular and strength training has been proven to be the most effective workout method for burning fat and building lean muscle. Unlike normal gyms, members never get the same workout twice.

All the workouts can be scaled up and down depending on your fitness levels and injury maintenance. The total time includes class introduction, demonstrations of the movements and the warm up.

The F45 training method is innovative and designed to help motivate and encourage its members to achieve their own goals. The result is a training session that is more fun and a program that produces real changes in strength and fitness.

If you are bored with the same old gym routine, why not step up and meet some new friends at F45 training Albany Creek, the friendly team would love to show you around.

TRAIN LIKE THE STARS INNOVATION MOTIVATION RESULTS F45 is the most innovative, challenging and systemised team training workout in the world.

The variation of our workout programming keeps our members challenged, eager to grow and ready to have fun.

Don’t commit until you love it! ask about our 1 week free trial.

Come along and have a chat with the team to get more information or call 0497 644 377 or email albanycreek@f45training.com.au

A vocational and cultural exchange program:

Group Study Exchange Group Study Exchange (GSE) started through the Rotary Foundation in 1965 as a unique cultural and vocational exchange opportunity for young business and professional people between the ages of 25 and 40 and in the early years of their professional life. The program aims to develop professional and leadership skills among young adults. GSE participants follow an extensive and rigorous program of international travel and team activities designed to provide cultural experience, vocational visits and fellowship promoting world peace and understanding of their vocations as well as their being ambassadors for their own country and local community.

For approximately 4 weeks, the Rotarian leader and team members experience the host country’s institutions and ways of life, observe their own vocations as practiced abroad, develop personal and professional relationships and exchange ideas.

The Rotary Club of Albany Creek hosted a dinner to farewell the current team travelling to New York (Rotary District 7950) on Easter Monday. Team leader, Tracey Wyatt, from the Rotary Club of Aspley is a OHS and Risk Management Coordinator for major sporting and event stadiums/facilities. The 4 team members include Donyque Curtis, a bomb appraisal officer with the Australian Federal Police, Roberta Ramoifuila, a Solomon Islander who is involved with counselling for family violence and other crises, Emily Seaman, a mentor and policy advisor

to Papua New Guinea’s Department of Immigration in relation to resettling refugees and asylum seekers leaving Manus Island detention centre and Richard Dening, a mediator and trained lawyer in the Dispute Resolution Branch of the Department of Justice, working on Elder Abuse.

The team’s main aim whilst in D7950 in the north-eastern corner of the USA is to gain a full appreciation of life in that part of the world – exploring vocational opportunities within each of our respective fields, enjoying meeting new friends, seeing the beauty and areas within the district, and building goodwill and friendships across the world, with future potential projects as a possible outcome.
