Everyone has a story from the Sherbourne Terrace
Celebrating 50 years as one of Shepparton’s most memorable hotel-motels HAVING undergone four name changes over the years, and between $5M and $10M worth of renovations since the Zurcas family purchased the Sherbourne Motor Inn (as it was known then) in 1978, the Sherbourne Terrace on Wyndham
Street, Shepparton is celebrating 50 years being one of Shepparton’s most memorable and successful hotel-motels. The building first started its life from 1966 as the Commodore, then transformed into the Inlander in the early
1970s before Stan Zurcas and his family left their Numurkah hotel to eventually open what would become one of the city’s most prestigious hotels, the Sherbourne Motor Inn. Continued on page 2
Everyone has a story from the Sherbourne Terrace Celebrating 50 years as one of Shepparton’s most memorable hotel-motels continued from front page THE Sherbourne’s first major renovation was in 1980, when the Zurcas family decided to extend the building to include the Shakers disco and drive-in bottle shop. In the mid 1980s, the building saw its next extension, where another 34 motel rooms and Banquet Function Room were added and a change to its title to become the now well-known Sherbourne Terrace. By the time 1992 came around, the Zurcas family decided it was time to remodel the façade and install the establishment’s first gaming room upstairs with 49 machines, but it still didn’t look like the Sherbourne Terrace as seen today until 1998, when the front of the building was extended and the gaming room brought downstairs. Managing director and son of Stan, Nick Zurcas said that the family had always been involved in hospitality and orchards in the region, with the first Zurcas family hotel being operated in Numurkah in the early 1960s.
“After the hotel in Numurkah, we then purchased the GV Hotel in the mid 1960s and through the growth of the family, our cousins purchased the GV Hotel from us and our side of the family purchased the Sherbourne Motor Inn. “It’s been a huge part of all of our lives and I am sure that everyone in the Goulburn Valley has a memory of this hotel. Everyone would have a story of this hotel whether it be from a wedding, the nightclubs, engagements, conferences, dining or just relaxing with a drink alongside friends. “When it comes to hospitality, there is nothing you can’t do at the Sherbourne. It’s a one-stop hospitality complex. “We do have some future plans for major renovations within the next two years. There is definitely something on the horizon.”

At the forefront of hospitality AT least one section of the Sherbourne Terrace today is always open, with the popular hotel-motel operating 21 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The Sherbourne Terrace has undergone some minor changes over the last 20 years, with an upgraded and extended function room, all ability access to the premises, upgraded motel rooms and a renovation having been carried out
on the sports bar meaning there is something for all ages. Thousands of people utilise the various aspects of the premises on a weekly basis including the drive thru bottle shop, TAB, sports bar, bistro, gaming room, accommodation suites or one of the three function rooms, and there will be continued growth to continue accommodating for the community’s and visitors’ needs.

THE Quality Hotel Sherbourne Terrace’s 55 accommodation rooms cater for all budgets and requirements, and sees more than 10,000 people stay at the popular hotel-motel each year bringing along with them more than an estimated $1M economic boost to the region.
COMFORT… The North Courtyard Room.
The South Courtyard Room features a queen and single bed and is designed for corporate use. The North Courtyard Room features a queen bed with a sofa bed and caters for couples, families or the visitor who just wants that little bit of extra room.
STYLE… The Spa Suite Room.
The Spa Suite Room is perhaps the Sherbourne’s most luxurious room and is the largest of the three options. It features a queen bed, large bathroom and sitting area and as the name states it sports a double spa for that extra touch on a relaxing stay. The Sherbourne’ has been awarded many times over the years, receiving AHA Awards among others. And of course, all rooms come with access to digital television, Foxtel, bathroom amenities, wireless internet access and tea and coffee facilities.
A FAMILY HELPING THE REGION GROW… The Zurcas family have played many important roles in helping the region to grow. From 1943 when Andrew Zurcas and his son, Bill settled in Shepparton, after arriving in Australia in 1937 from Florina in Greece, the Zurcas family have been involved in the fruit industry through their orchards, Zurcas Coolstore and Packing and their exportation of apples and pears. The family has also had links with the transport industry through Zurcas and Co Trucking Company, in property development when they organised the build of the City Central Arcade (Target Arcade) and of course in the hospitality industry through the family’s dealings with the Sherbourne.’ From left (back), Stan Zurcas, Nathan Zurcas, William Zurcas and Sam Zurcas.

Nick Zurcas
Stan Zurcas (Deceased)
Sherbourne Terrace Founder The hospitality industry has been a way of life for Sherbourne Motor Inn founder, Stan Zurcas as he has worked in the industry since 1963. During his time, he witnessed great changes in the area of hospitality and it has been a constant challenge to remain abreast of those changes.
Page 4 – Special Sherbourne Terrace 50th Anniversary Wrap-Around, July 2016. The Adviser
Sherbourne Terrace Managing Director and Overseer the Zurcas Group of Companies Having been a part of the Sherbourne since day one, Nick Zurcas says he has a love for the hospitality industry, which was the reason he decided to work with the family business. He believes the secret behind the Sherbourne Terrace’s success is the fact it is a local, family run business. Nick said, “Hospitality continues to evolve and will never cease to evolve.”
Nathan Zurcas
Manager Son of Sam and Liz Zurcas, Nathan Zurcas has been at the Sherbourne’ his whole life, but he officially began working full time straight after school. Growing up in the hotel and around customers he realised his love for hospitality. Nathan said, “You never know how we will have to evolve, but as we have shown in the past we are always up for the challenge of providing a family friendly hospitality experience for everyone to come and enjoy.”
Jenny Matthews Dale Anwyl
Bottle Shop Manager Dale has been working alongside the Zurcas family since 1979. He started working with the company after his mother, who also worked there, got him a trial. Dale says that the success behind the Sherbourne’ is the fact that it has been longstanding.
Executive Housekeeper Almost 30 years ago Jenny Matthews took up the casual, part time job being offered at the Sherbourne’ and has stayed on board for the long haul. She decided to join the team because it was a family run business with family values. Jenny said, “It is great to see how the Sherbourne has progressed and it can only continue to grow.”

Courtney said, “The ESOF brings people together to discuss current and future breakthroughs in contemporary science. “Not only will I be able to experience the forefront of new and exciting research, from the very best researchers and scientists in their field, but I’ll also see the interplay between politics, science and the wider society on an international level. “I’ll have the chance to learn more about the fields of science that interest me such as material science and nano technology, and I’ll also be learning more about the sciences I don’t know so much about, or even fields of research that are ground-breaking and promise new jobs and careers in the future. I may even discover the career path that I

Transformation projects to
unlock region’s potential By David Lee WAT E R secu rit y, a new SA M , the Goulburn Valley Shepparton Bypass, GV Health radiotherapy services, improved passenger rail services, a new Shepparton Rail Station, high speed rail and food bowl inland rail route are all priorities that Greater Shepparton City Council are presenting to state and Federal Governments and ministers in a bid to gain funding to unlock the potential of the region. The Priority Transformation Projects document and accompanying video, which details seven key infrastructure projects, are being pushed to being front of mind for the government in hope that funding will be secured to meet the current and future needs of Greater Shepparton. As part of the priority projects, Greater Shepparton City Council are hoping to convince the government to help secure our water for irrigation and agriculture through the government putting a halt to water recovery initiatives and future federal water purchases, for them to take into account the findings of an independent socio-economic analysis, for the Federal Government to commit to funding and delivering the full 650GL of environmental offsets and putting a halt on all efforts to recover 450GL of additional water for South Australia and for the Murray Darling Basin Authority to be relocated to Shepparton.

Rail in Shepparton is also a major part of the projects being put in the spotlight, which includes $25M of State Government funding for the relocation of the Shepparton Rail Station from its current location on Purcell Street to North Street, a total of $488M to improve passenger rail services between Shepparton and Melbourne, a commitment
to exploring innovative funding and financial approaches to deliver high speed rail via the Shepparton route and for the Food Bowl Inland Rail Route to be reassessed to pass through the Shepparton line rather than the proposed Albury-Wagga Wagga line. Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Cr Dinny Adem said, “These projects need to happen. “We make a point of personally presenting the document to as many government representatives as possible. Both the document and the video are planned to have the most impact they possibly can. “The projects all must be achieved in order to accomplish the outcomes we want for Greater Shepparton.”

PRAISE TO THE COUNCIL Dear Editor, Rarely do I give praise to the council, but this time it’s well deserved. I live on The Boulevard, Shepparton and have witnessed many ‘near misses’ and vehicular accidents at the bend of Knight Street/The Boulevard, where the road surface has been worn smooth causing drivers to lose control of their vehicles, especially in wet weather. There have been two accidents in the last month that required a tow truck to remove the vehicles from the scene. I contacted council and they arranged a meeting with Senior Design and Traffic Engineer, Brendan Walsh at the site to discuss what could be done to improve the safety for drivers, residents and also pedestrians. While we were there we witnessed a few of the problems with vehicles nearly tail ending each other as they approached the bend and a vehicle coming from Knight Street, screeching its tyres. Luckily the road was dry otherwise there would have been another accident. A few of the ideas that were discussed were rumble strips, a pedestrian island, new road markings and a change in signage and also reflectors on the road. Later I had a chat with another council worker who came to assess the road surface. He pointed out the road surface had worn smooth and would need resurfacing but it would have to wait until November 2016 for warmer weather and they could only do a spray treatment but it would require a complete resurface, which would have to be listed for the next financial year. He would also recommend a drop in the speed limit from 60km/h to 35km/h until the complete resurfacing was done. The council has now taken action by placing new signage at this corner. The first sign is in Knight Street, just past Quinan Parade, where the speed limit has been dropped from 60km/h to 35km/h. The second sign is located on The Boulevard showing the road on the left that enters Knight Street as you round the bend. I’d personally like to thank Cr Patterson and Mr Brendan Walsh for their assistance with making this corner safer for all. Yours sincerely, Stephen Templeman Shepparton
LEAVE THE MALL Dear Editor, Maude Street Mall is fine. It is just that there is no parking for access to the mall. People are generally lazy and won’t walk to where they want to go. But that is not true either, they will park in Coles car park and walk quite a good distance to where they can buy printer things for their computer in Kmart, then walk twice as far to get bread etc from Coles; but where can you park to get to Maude Street Mall? An answer to this is to build a big overhead car park over Maude Street to accommodate 110 percent of cars in the Greater Shepparton area. But then that would not work, as people would complain that there is no daylight in the Mall and they would want elevators to every shop. So change the shops layout so that cars can ‘drive through’ as per KFC or McDonalds. But that would take up too much room. Open up the mall to traffic and you would have another congested area similar to that in front of Coles/Kmart and Wyndham Street. So, to sum up the situation, those who really want to go to the mall will find a park space and walk there. Those who just want to get their shopping done will walk across the provided car parks of the shopping centres. Those who do not want to go to town at all can do all their shopping from home on their computer and have the things delivered. The only things that I am reluctant to buy online are personal things that have to be fitted, like shoes or undergarments. I visited a shopping centre in America that had 17 acres of car parks! Quite a walk to get to the stores. I personally like Maude Street Mall as a place to stroll on a warm summer day. It can be a hive of activity with great attractions – whoops, sorry, I asked at the council if I could perform in the mall and the council wanted a $50 fee for a two month’s license! Great incentive I suppose; but that is another story. Yours sincerely, Dennis Oyston Shepparton Want to have your say? Email your letters to the Editor to editorial@sheppartonadviser.com.au.

Shepparton residents called on to gather Census data THE Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) is calling on Shepparton residents to participate in the reporting of Census data this year. The ABS is concentrating on Shepparton because accurate data is required in 2016 to inform planning for vital infrastructure and local services, including schools, health services and transport. The ABS has already started working with the community to prepare for the Census, employing nearly 80 local residents to run the Census in the Shepparton area. Shepparton residents can expect to receive a letter from August 1, which will contain instructions and a unique Census login for completing the Census online and directions on how to request a paper form. Victoria’s Census director, Annette Kelly said it’s critical that everyone in Shepparton and surrounds is counted as part of the Census so that the information collected about the area is as accurate as possible. “The 2016 Census will reveal important information about how Shepparton’s population, along with its education, employment and housing, has changed over the past five years. “Census data will support planning, decision-making and funding at all levels of government, which will directly affect everyone here in Shepparton. It will provide the information that helps deliver the services and facilities used in this area every day.”
The search is on for our best local wines ENTRIES for the 13th annual Dookie Wine Show are now open for 2016 entrants and the region’s wineries are being encouraged to enter their offerings. Regional manager for Phillips Wines retail sales and one of the organisers of this year’s Dookie Wine Show event, John Spies said, “The Dookie Wine Show in the 12 years previous has just kept on getting bigger and bigger. “The Awards Dinner is a genuine celebration of all of the best local wines from across the region. “The best thing about the Dookie Wine Show is the amount of traction that the winners do get. You look back to the 2011 Tallis Wines Viognier, a fantastic wine and it’s now well known as being a classic Viognier. The 2014 winning wine, the Mitchelton Blackwood Park Riesling, right back to the 2004 Maygars Hill Shiraz, just absolutely great wines which have enjoyed good local leverage through the Dookie Wine Show exposure. “The Dookie Wine Show has been recognised as a platform for stand out wines produced locally and with the judging team lead by head show judge, Simon Killeen, we’re really excited about the potential of the wines already being entered this year. “The Awards Dinner continues to be a sell out event each year and offers a premier display of our region’s local talent when it comes to food preparation and pairing with award winning wines. “If you feel that you have a wine that is worth entering in the Dookie Wine Show, then by all means, we encourage you to enter.” Entries close on Monday, July 18. Judging will be held on Thursday, July 21 and bookings are already being taken for

LOCALS may have noticed that from July 1, their favourite Ten shows are now found on Nine’s new channel 5 and 9HD on channel 50, after Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) entered into a new agreement with the Nine Network following the expiration of its program supply agreement with the TEN Network on June 30. SCA head of regional media, Rick Lenarcic said, “When SCA entered into a new affiliation agreement with the Nine Network on April 29, we announced the channel would be put to air as soon after
1 July as possible, but by mid-August at the latest. The agreement was made on the basis that new HD equipment needed to be ordered, arrive from overseas and the channel installed and tested. “Recognising how much our viewers value the quality of high definition, our technical staff have been working tirelessly to get HD to air as quickly as possible. “SCA would particularly like to thank Cisco Systems who have assisted us in getting the channel to air well ahead of schedule.”

Conversations to help bring about changes in family violence A NEW project dubbed ‘Conversations for Change’ and being run by Primary Care Connect (PCC) is now underway in the region, which aims at bringing to light and opening the forum to discuss the issues surrounding family violence (FV). With 458 FV incidents reported in Shepparton in 2011/12, 1,986 in 2012/13 and 2,212 in 2013/14, the statistics are showing a rise in reported FV events across the city, and PCC is hoping to deliver the Conversations for Change project by engaging with the local community and leading 1,000 conversations focused on family and community violence. The conversations are facilitated but intended to be informal, casual and relaxed. They can be held
whenever and wherever to suit you and your group. Each session runs between one and one and a half hours and can include a group size of three to 10 people. PCC CEO, Rebecca Lorains said, “We need a community response to family and community violence in Greater Shepparton. “The information from these conversations is coming directly from our community members and is key to driving our community response. “I urge everyone to be part of a conversation and together formulate our community’s response.” For further information, contact Nicole Montgomery or Broni Paine at Primary Care Connect on 5823 3200.

Damian Drum said, “It was a very positive result over the weekend and certainly the
result is very close to being called, however the AEC has made it very clear they are going to need a couple more days to count the votes as they come in. “The way the votes have come in would suggest a substantial lead, so I am very confident. “If you look back and reflect, it’s been fantastic to have been able to run a positive campaign and to address and look at the issues that we think matter most to the people and were able to talk about what we plan to do in government. “We are planning on delivering the Echuca-Moama Bridge, we’re planning on jobs and employment investment programs ($20M into this region) and we’re going to build the Wedderburn Pipeline for $20M. It’s just announcements and announcements. “Our vision for the region is clear and positive.
The best way to deliver projects for the people of Murray, is going to be to work behind the scenes to make sure that the projects that are important to the people are given absolute priority.” AEC Divisional Returning Officer for the Division of Murray, Craig Rickards said, “The finalisation of counting votes may take a couple of weeks, which is consistent with any election. “We have to go through and check that all votes cast are formal votes and then every ballot paper needs to be re-scrutinised and that is what takes time. It’s quite an involved process. “It’s always critical to cast your vote, particularly in an election like this where the votes are so close. With the seats that are close seats, such as here in Murray, every vote has a significant bearing on the result.”

Bec was up against some tough competition, with 11 other fitness instructors from across the state also nominated. Bec says it’s a privilege sharing her enjoyment of group fitness with her participants. “I love seeing the satisfaction on their faces when they nail a combo, or at the end of a class when sweat is pouring, but they had so much fun. “Having the ability to change a participant’s mood in an hour or 45 minute class is incredible.” Aquamoves centre manager, Marcus Cook says the ARV Industry Awards provide an opportunity for Aquamoves to showcase its depth of talent. “We are very fortunate to have highly performing and hardworking staff providing a broad range of valuable facilities and services for the local community.”

Murray Goulburn sets 2016-17
farmgate milk price MURRAY Goulburn Co-operative Co. Limited (MG) last week announced that it is forecasting a 2016-17 farmgate milk price (FY17 FMP) of $4.80 per kg of milk solid with a net opening FMP of $4.31 per kg of milk solid after application of the Milk Supply Support Package repayment. MG interim CEO, David Mallinson said, “Commodity prices remain the largest external influence on MG’s financial performance. Global conditions have not improved, and the latest data suggests excess global inventories, including the impact of European intervention, may have surpassed the equivalent of 6 billion litres of milk. Key commodity prices have remained below US$3,000 per tonne for almost two years, much longer than historical price downturns. “In the face of these difficult market conditions, the forecast FY17 FMP reflects MG’s view that commodity prices will
continue to trade around current levels for the remainder of the 2016 calendar year with only a modest recovery in price of around six percent across MG’s major commodities during the second half of FY17. “We acknowledge FY17 will be a challenging year for our suppliers. We have set a robust forecast and while there are a number of areas, which may provide upside to our FY17 forecast, we do not believe it is prudent to include these in our forecast at this stage. Should more positive conditions emerge, MG will be vigilant in ensuring any upside passes to our suppliers and investors. “We believe there is an opportunity to continue to generate better efficiencies from our business, both from a cost and working capital perspective, and in generating benefits from our recent investments across new systems and manufacturing facilities.”

Devine departure from AFL Goulburn Murray AFL Goulburn Murray league operations manager, Simon Devine has tendered his resignation and will move to Melbourne at the end of the month to join the Northern Football League and head up their football operations department. Devine has been with AFL Goulburn Murray since relocating from Queensland to Shepparton in January last year, with his main area of responsibility being the operations of the Goulburn Valley Football League (GVFL). Simon said, “It has been a whirlwind 18 months but one which has been instrumental in my development as a football administrator. “The support I have received from AFL Goulburn Murray, the GVFL Board and GVFL clubs and more so their volunteers made this role a pleasure to undertake and I will continue to take a keen interest in
football in the region. “I’m sure the support and assistance I have received from clubs will further grow and develop as the GVFL brand will only get stronger with the platform that has now been put in place.” AFL Goulburn Murray region general manager, Martin Gleeson paid tribute to Devine’s contribution to local football in a short timeframe. “Simon joined us in readiness for last season when we had just taken on the reigns of the GVFL administration and immediately had an impact. “His operational experience and expertise were instrumental in putting processes and procedures in place and he very quickly developed a strong rapport and working relationship with club volunteers. “The streamlining of tribunal operations, the introduction of live scoring and match
filming, the provision of iPads to all clubs, an increase in social media and website traffic and an increase in service level and support for club volunteers have been cornerstones of the GVFL administration growth during Simon’s tenure. “He has also been a valuable team member in the office and an important part of our staff working across all leagues and contributing to other commission projects over the past 18 months.”

175 percent increase in drug reporting continued from front page DURING the two-week campaign there was a 175 percent increase in the number of ‘drug-related information reports’ received by Crime Stoppers, and a 163 percent increase in ‘information reports relating to amphetamines.’ Crime Stoppers has declared the campaign a success and the information received by its contact centre will be passed on to police for further investigation.
Crime Stoppers Victoria spokesperson, Chris Plumridge said, “Crime Stoppers Victoria would like to thank the Shepparton community for supporting us in our quest to stamp out ICE and other illicit drugs in the region. “Drugs like crystal methyl-amphetamine have devastating consequences for regional Victorian cities, placing pressure on police, health services, as well as emergency service staff and volunteers. “While the Dob in a Dealer program will now shift
focus to other locations across the state, reports can be made to Crime Stoppers 365 days a year and we urge the community to continue to pass on information about any suspicious behaviour. “Making a report to Crime Stoppers is completely confidential. Every piece of information you provide can help solve crimes and reduce the supply of illicit drugs to regional Victoria.”

headspace celebrates a decade W H I L E headspace Sheppa r ton f i rst opened its doors in Shepparton in June 2013, celebrations rang out last week for the organisation’s 10 year anniversary in providing help for young people. Across Australia, headspace has helped more than 250,000 young Australians, up to 1.5 million times when they’ve sought help at centres across Australia, over the phone and online at eheadspace. headspace Shepparton manager, Caroline French said that headspace Shepparton was
proud to celebrate their achievement since opening in 2013 and the decade of support provided for young people nationally. “We are delighted to celebrate 10 years of headspace in Australia and provide access for young people in Shepparton - a place created just for them, a place built with a decade of input from young people like them, a place with a name they know and a place where they can feel safe,” Ms French said. In 2015, headspace Shepparton staff
supported more than 673 young people; 472 of those were new clients. headspace Shepparton provided around 2,715 services for young people and the average number of services accessed per young person was four. More than 67 percent of young people sought support from headspace Shepparton for mental health issues. headspace CEO, Chris Tanti said he is proud headspace has helped traditionally marginalised groups of young people and
made a difference to their lives. “Getting help takes a lot of courage; we’ve made it easier for young people to come to the one place with all the support they need. “ We s u p p o r t a d i v e r s e g r o u p experiencing a tough time, including high numbers from regional and rural areas, those identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and questioning (LGBTIQ) and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people,” Chris said.

ABOVE: ACTIVITIES GALORE… Lots of activities while at sea. For those looking for a challenge you can try the rock-climbing wall. INSET: SKATING ENTERTAINMENT… The Explorer of the Seas has its own ice rink available to passengers and also provides special floor shows featuring skaters from around the world. MAIN: RELAX ON DECK… Pools and spas abound with plenty of deck space to lay back in a deck chair.
Sailing to America
WE left Fiji last night and today is the first of seven days we will spend at sea, until we arrive in Hawaii. As I said earlier in these stories, this is a relocation cruise, with the ship Explorer of the Seas returning to America from Australia for the summer months. I decided to sleep in this morning and am being awakened by the sound of my cabin attendant gently knocking on the door. Room service has arrived with my breakfast and I think I’ll have it on the verandah. Looking out over my orange juice it’s a perfect day. The sunny sky shines down on a near flat, gentle sea and no land can be seen, nor any other ships. The sea is wide and deep. We have (according to the captain) over 3,270m of water under the keel. The Pacific Ocean is the largest single body of water on the planet and covers an area bigger than all the land masses combined. As I look at this mass of ocean I savour my culinary start to the first of the sea days. Looking at the activities available on board, they have been going on since 7am. There is everything from exercise classes, yoga, tai chi, daily trivia and much more, even the casino has been open since 9am. I decide to attend morning trivia in the lounge on deck five, following that is learn to play bridge classes, then line dancing on deck 13 and shuffleboard out on deck four. Well, that’s taken care of the morning, time for a cuppa in one of the six different restaurants on-board. If there is one thing the Explorer of the Seas has it’s plenty of food. You can eat six meals a day if you wish and there is always the Cafe on the Promenade open 24/7. There is a movie about to start in the main theatre and guess what, the movie is about food; Burnt staring Bradley Cooper. After the movie it’s time to eat, so up to the Windjammer on deck 11 for the buffet. One has to be careful not to overdo it and start stacking on the ‘kilos.’ After lunch you can grab a good book from the library and relax in a deck chair around the swimming pools and spas; they come in multiples on this ship. Later I’ll watch the competition on the rock-climbing wall on deck 13 and then the Page 20 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1310 Wednesday, July 6, 2016
flow rider. Today it’s stand up surfing as this continuous flow of fast moving water provides some spills and thrills for contestants and the watching crowd. Next it will be time to get dressed for dinner, followed by a floor show in the main theatre, then a nightcap and off to bed, or off to one of the entertainment lounges for more live acts. Well for me that’s a big day. If the rest of this week is the same I guess I’ll have no trouble handling one week at sea. It’s now our fourth consecutive day at sea and we have crossed the International Date Line and celebrated two Mondays in a row. Today we are on the deepest sea in our journey. Our ship is crossing the Mariana Trench and the captain tells us there is 10,000m of water between our keel and the bottom of the trench. Fellow passengers seem to be taking to the sea days with ease. Lots happening on each deck, from sports to bingo or just lazing around the various pools and spas. Everyone is in a party mood. Last night we had a formal night and it was great to see the ladies all dressed up for the occasion and the guys looked good too in their dinner suits. Three more days to go before Honolulu. I’m hoping we may see some whales in the coming days and they tell me it’s still the season to see them in these waters until the end of May. We have just crossed the equator and everyone is on deck to witness the ceremony as King Neptune boards our ship to pronounce penance on those among the crew and passengers who have been found unworthy to be aboard. It’s a lot of fun as King Neptune doles out the punishment. Everything from flour to treacle is smeared on the sinners who then have their sins washed away along with the flour. The crowd loves it. They show no mercy and cheer on the proceedings. Then it’s back to the serious business of sunning by the pool while everyone takes part in a huge barbeque on deck. It’s another beautiful day. The sun is shining, the sea is flat and the warm barmy weather
part II
makes it ideal to be on deck. We are now in the Northern hemisphere on the North Pacific Ocean and all looks good for continuing our relaxing days at sea. Until next time, Safe Travel’n, Geoff Vallance

Bushrangers joust the Knights THE Murray Bushrangers have scored a 43 point victory over the Northern Knights at Norm Minns Oval in Wangaratta at the weekend. The contest was played in great spirit and the playing surface held up well after cold weather and rain throughout the week. The Bushrangers’ saw Laitham Vandermeer debut after good form at Mooroopna and Xavier College. I n f r o n t o f a h o m e c r o wd t h e Bushrangers’ kicked out to a 17 point victory early in the contest courtesy of a seven goal opening term. However such was the tight tussle in the contest that the Knights’ were able to close to within four points at the half time break. The Bushrangers’ started the third term slowly but their ability to be robust and competitive enabled them to out run the Knights’ and go into the final term with a 14 point lead. The final term saw the Bushrangers’ kick an identical score from the first term piling on seven goals, and three behinds whilst restricting the Knights’ to two goals. The Bushrangers’ ability to finish the game strongly showed great attributes in character and the determination to stay in the contest for longer periods of the game. James Cousins continued his excellent form and dominated the possession count with disposals both inside the contest whilst also providing run and carry from

midfield forward and deep in defence; while adding three goals to cement best on ground honours. Lachlan Tiziani, in season best form, kicked six goals across the four quarters and played some crucial time through the midfield winning solid possession.
Sporting chance takes national award THE local Sporting Chance Program recently walked away with an award under the Programs, Activities and Events category and then went on to win the Overall Innovations Award in the inaugural Australian Sport, Recreation and Play Industry Awards. As winners of the category the program receives a trophy and a $1,000 cheque and as overall winner a $5,000 cheque from FieldTurf Tarket, which will be invested back into the program to enable it to continue and grow. Greater Shepparton City Council Director Community, Kaye Thomson said, “The shortlisted competitors in our category were two significant metro programs – the YMCA Active Moreland Program and Sunshine Coast Council Heart Week Expo – so it is quite an achievement to beat two metropolitan councils. “To win the overall award we were competing against some really significant projects across six other categories including City of Boroondara’s multi-million dollar centre re-development, Ballarat Regional Sports Park Redevelopment, City of Geelong, Tennis Victoria, Hornsby Shire Council and the Deakin University (Geelong) Multi-Sport Precinct Development.” Family Care CEO, David Tennant said it was well deserved recognition for a program that makes a difference in so many people’s lives. “Family Care is thrilled with the win for this partnership program. We firmly believe that no family and especially no child should miss out on participating in sport because of financial pressures.”
Half back, Harry Morrison showed class and poise and enabled great transition from defence through the midfield and drive the ball forward. Key defender, Ned Nihill was a rock in defence taking many solid marks and controlling and direct play from the defensive 50. Jake Page, playing deep
defence, provided excellent run to break lines and pushed the ball forward. While midfielder, Ben Paton kicked three goals in an all-round game. Defender turned forward, Damon Hemphill kicked two goals with great crumbing at the feet of the tall Bushrangers forwards.
Swan named first legend SHEPPARTON Swans champion ruckman of the 1950s, Robbie Orrman was elevated to ‘legend’ status during a star studded GVFL Hall Of Fame ceremony at the weekend. Orrman was chosen as the league’s first legend from the first 16 Hall Of Fame members who have been inducted over the past two years. His three Morrison Medals (1951, 1954 and 1959), earned during his illustrious career with the Lemnos Football Club, stand him apart as a worthy recipient of the league’s highest honour. One of the greatest aspects of Orrman’s career was his fairness. His quiet disposition and fair play made him one of the most popular players of his time. Robbie also had a star studded career in GVFL representative teams. Eight new members were also inducted into the Hall Of Fame, including the ‘Prince of Coaches’ (Kevin Kenna) and ‘Mr Football’ (Barry Connolly). The GVFL’s greatest ever goal kicker Chris Stuhldreier also earned his place as a Hall of Fame inductee, with a career which included the extraordinary achievement of eight consecutive 100 goal seasons. Other inductees included Shepparton superstar, Stephen Ash, Euroa premiership coach, Kevin Storer, Echuca champion, John Haw and Shepparton United stalwart, Richard Warburton. The other administrator inducted for his foundation work in the league was Tatura’s long serving league secretary from the early part of last century, Steve O’Toole.

Be careful with your selections as only correct entries will go into the draw for the weekly $100 shopping voucher. If no correct entry is received the prize will jackpot each week until a correct entry is submitted. Draws between two teams will only be recognised if a tick is placed beside both teams. Entries will only be accepted by post or hand delivery no later than 5.00pm on each Friday during 2016, unless stated otherwise due to matches being played outside the normal weekend. Entries must be on original forms – no faxes or photocopies will be accepted and only one entry per household is permitted. The judge’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.

FOOTBALL FAIRNESS… The region’s communities and clubs should be able to have some success every so often to see the survival of the local football leagues, and this can only happen if we make things as equal between regional towns and cities. Photo: Bailey Opie Photography.
HAVING competitions with teams being on a level or equal playing field, and being competitive, is tough in the AFL but even tougher in our country leagues. Regional cities versus regional towns, fixtures, spending and access to more people/players are just some of the reasons we have lop sided results week-in week-out in the country. This year in our region, there have been a few senior sides not score some weeks and every week we see some margins over 200 points and many 100 plus point margins. The point system is coming in to help curb the spending of the richer clubs that can afford to splurge on top end talent, while the poorer clubs struggle to be competitive, but will that work?
Salary caps have been tried before without success. We have lost enough football clubs over the last 20 years and let’s hope the points system can help all clubs. The people that run the game in the region also need to get the fixtures correct in the larger competitions so that the weaker clubs play the weaker clubs twice a year which gives the players, supporters and communities hope. There are many ways that we can help all clubs survive and be competitive and we need to do everything we can to preserve our clubs going forward. Our communities and clubs should be able to have some success every so often to survive and this can only happen if we make things as equal as we can.

eThe faces behind the Sherbourne Terrace
Jeff Campbell Matthew Zurcas
Manager In 2011, son of Nick and Maria Zurcas, Matthew Zurcas made the decision to join the Sherbourne Terrace team because of his interest in the family run business. He believes the success of the Sherbourne’ has come from the fact that not only is it family run but the staff and management have a great understanding of their patrons. Matthew said, “In 50 years I hope to see the celebration of the Sherbourne’s 100 years.
Hotel Manager As hotel manager, Jeff Campbell’s role is to oversee the running of the Squatters Sports Bar and McGuires Bistro. He first worked at the Sherbourne’ in 1993 and it is his fifth time working for the Zurcas family. Jeff feels the secret to the success of the hotel is the dedication to continual improvements of facilities over an extended period of time. Jeff said, “With continued upgrades and dedication to the Goulburn Valley, and the continual investment in staff and hospitality systems, the hotel will only continue to grow into the future.”
Mandy Rogers
Reception Manager Since 1983, Mandy Rogers has been a part of the Sherbourne’ family. After looking for work in the city, she noticed the position available at the Sherbourne’ and because it was a family run business she jumped on the opportunity. Mandy said, “Anything could happen in the future of the Sherbourne Terrace.”
The Sherboure Terrace family EMPLOYING locals is something that the Sherbourne Terrace knows all too well the importance of, as it helps to build a strong local economy. There are between 80 and 90 members of staff as part of the Sherbourne Terrace family who take care of the kitchen, bar, TAB, housekeeping and reception areas to ensure each visitor enjoys their time as much as possible at the Sherbourne.’ Managing director, Nick Zurcas said,
“Because we are open 7 days a week there is somebody here all day everyday of the week, and every day of the year. “It is crucial for the town to employ locals. The town can’t thrive without job security. “This hotel has been here for 50 years under different names and over that time it has seen the creation of a substantial amount of jobs.”

A memorable part of Shepparton’s nightlife THE Sherbourne Terrace’s nightclubs have all been famous in their own right, with the evolution of its nightlife scene moving from Quarter Deck to Station One. The Quarter Deck was one of the most popular places to be in the late 1960s and was famous for its jazz nights. In 1978, the club adjusted to the times and became Shakers disco, which was well known for its cover bands. But perhaps one of the venue’s most memorable clubs that many can say they frequented, would be Station 1, which came to life in 1988 and was popular for its DJs. Manager, Nathan Zurcas said, “Many people would have memories of each of the clubs and they have played an important part in the lives of many in the Goulburn Valley. “Everyone loved them. “While there is no nightclub in operation at the Sherbourne at the moment, we are contemplating opening one in the future.”

Functionality to suit any occasion WHETHER it’s a wedding, business conference, private lunch or dinner, convention, cocktail function or a birthday party, the Sherbourne Terrace can cater for any occasion through its purpose designed function rooms. The newest addition to its optional function spaces is the Terrace Room, which can cater for 400 sit down guests and is perfect for weddings, conferences and conventions. The Wyndham Room caters for up to 60 guests sit down and would suit small meetings or private lunches and dinners. The Nightclub can seat up to 400 people but is better suited for cocktail functions and birthday parties, and
because it was the old Station 1, the room is already decked out with all the equipment you need to ensure a great night out. All rooms have access to data and audio visual equipment and can be catered to suit any need, so drop in at the Sherbourne Terrace and speak with one of their friendly staff about the function room options available. PURPOSE DESIGNED FUNCTION ROOMS… The Sherbourne Terrace has three purpose designed function rooms to accommodate for anything from a wedding, business conference, private lunch or dinner, convention, cocktail function or a birthday party.

Drive thru ease and convenience
AN entertaining sports bar, inviting bistro, TAB and gaming room are all a part of the Sherbourne Terrace charm. Squatters Sports Bar began as a saloon style bar, but in 2012 underwent a modernisation becoming a complete entertainment venue with 30 televisions showing a range of live sports and races. The 2012 upgrade came at a cost of $150,000 and saw the bar fully gutted and the installation of new walls, floors, an extension of the floor space and the construction of an outdoor smoking area. The sports bar also has access to the venue’s TAB area, which offers punters of all kinds the chance to watch their races and games closely and place their bets accordingly. Starting out as a small ladies lounge coupled with a full restaurant upstairs at the Sherbourne, McGuires Bistro gained its name and original look in the mid 1980s and has had some cosmetic upgrades over the past 20 years. Today it seats approximately 150 people and has been combined with the restaurant. The bistro offers a deliciously tantalising menu which includes the typical options you expect to find at any good bistro, including a chicken parmigiana, steaks,
pasta dishes, seafood as well as weekly specials that offer the chef the chance to be creative and offer something unique. The gaming room was started in 1993 with 49 machines and due to government regulations, now has 43 machines.

THE Sherbourne Terrace premises has had a bottle shop since it was the Commodore in 1966, but it only became a drive thru bottle shop in 1978 and still remains one of Shepparton last remaining drive thru bottle shops.
Originally a United Inn Keeper, the bottle shop is now a Thirsty Camel and offers ease and convenience and its manager of 35 years, Dale Anwyl can help you with any purchase or top drop you are after.
