‘Lest we Forget’ Region to commemorate our ANZAC’S APRIL 25 means a lot to communities right across Australia, as all come together to honour, remember and thank those who have served our country past and present during ANZAC Day commemorations. Across the city on Tuesday, April 25 Shepparton’s services will begin with a Dawn Service at 6am with locals encouraged to gather at The Victoria Hotel on Fryers Street from 5:45am for the March to Memorial Park on Welsford Street where the service will be held. A Commemorative Service will follow, with the march beginning at the car park of the Shepparton RSL at 10:20am, with the service commencing at 11am at Memorial Park. Mooroopna will see their Commemorative Service held from 9am, with locals encouraged to gather at the water tower in McLennan Street from 8:30am to take part in the march. Shepparton RSL Club president, Bob Wilkie said, “ANZAC Day is such an important event for Australia and our local community. “To honour, remember and thank our past and present ANZACs for is something we should all be proud to do and so I encourage the community to come along to the commemoration services held in Shepparton and Mooroopna. “We will be having problems with parking this year as Welsford Street will be closed from 5am to midday.

A loving 70 years celebrated A VERY HAPPY LIFE TOGETHER… Local Mooroopna residents, 90 year olds Lorrain and Stan Watt celebrated 70 years of marriage recently. Photo: David Lee.

By David Lee NOT going to bed on an argument, a great family and wonderful friends have helped attribute to the full life and 70 years of marriage experienced by local Mooroopna residents, 90 year olds Lorrain and Stan Watt. It was an injury sustained by Stan when he was 17 that lead to the two meeting, but it wasn’t until he was 18 that the two went on their first official date, which Stan says cemented their relationship. At the time of Stan’s injury, Lorraine was a nurse at the Mooroopna Base Hospital and after meeting her, Stan would ride his bike from his job at the Flour Mill past the hospital in hope of a chance meeting. Stan said, “Soon after our first date, we were visiting my parents and on the way home, Lorraine said she was thinking of going to Tasmania to complete midwifery, I only had a push bike at the time and it’s a long ride to get to Tasmania, so I said I’ll have to marry you then. She said are you proposing to me and I replied, I guess I am. The next day I rode my bike into Shepparton to buy an engagement ring. “We were married on April 5, 1947,

Page 4 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1350 Wednesday, April 19, 2017

which was an Easter Saturday. “The secret to a successful marriage is trying not to go to bed on an argument… but the greatest fun is making up. “We have a great family; one son and three daughters, 10 grandchildren and seven great grandchildren. “We’ve had an eventful life. Lorraine was a cub leader, a nurse for a number of years and I have been in the fire brigade, president of the Mooroopna Chamber of Commerce, worked at Fairley’s in Shepparton, the Flour Mill in Mooroopna, picking tomatoes and beans, a sausage casing maker, and a life insurance salesman for 40 years. “We have lived a full life together. “We’ve been all over the world. We’ve been to New Zealand, Japan, Hawaii, America, Canada, France, Italy, London and we’re pretty keen dancers so spent many trips going to New Orleans. “I love that Lorraine is a very happy lady. She loves our children and friends.” Lorraine said, “My favourite thing about Stan is that he is very good at helping. He’s very handy to have about. “We’ve been very happy together.”

Government funding cuts to local youth law centre will hurt region By David Lee A YOUTH law service that has been offered to the local community through The Bridge Youth Service, is set to be axed from July this year, after the Commonwealth Government announced it would be cutting funding to all community legal centres. The Bridge Youth Service Youth & Family Support Team Manager, Mel Formica (Vidler) said, “The Youthlaw service, which had been offered for the past two years, has provided an outreach service in partnership with The Bridge Youth Service in Shepparton, to assist vulnerable young people with their legal problems. “This will be a huge loss to the youth of Goulburn Valley if the funding is indeed cut. If it is, Youthlaw will lose $72,000 per annum, which is a sizeable cut for a small legal centre. “The service provides legal advice and assistance through regular on-site visits, over the phone and by Skype and also provides secondary consultation to centre staff. This service is utilised at times daily by young people and staff at The Bridge Youth Service. Whether it be a staff consultation, a faceto-face meeting with a lawyer, telephone or Skype, each contact is vital to support our local youth. Issues

that young people have been supported with vary but include; family violence, housing issues, victim assistance, debts and general advice. “The service intervenes early to prevent many negative consequences and crisis situations, so young people can move on with their lives. We know that young people feel comfortable using this service and, without it, they are unlikely to seek or obtain legal assistance. “It is crucial in rural and remote areas for young people to be able to access such a service because we simply don’t have those services here that are youth specific and can relate to young people. “There is a real need to demystify the legal situation that the young person is in, so that they understand it and that it can be dealt with. If you don’t provide that support the consequences can be catastrophic for the young person, such as suicide, breakdown of family relationships and being shunned from the community. “It’s extremely disappointing that under the current government the cuts mean that Youthlaw will not be able to provide the invaluable service after July. This will leave many already disadvantaged young people in situations that will continue to spiral out of control without the Youthlaw support.”

Big industry advancements everyday H HYDRAULICS forms the core technology behind many industrial companies and so many of the applications we see in our daily lives. Whether it’s at home or at work, in mobile or stationary applications, life, as we know it, wouldn’t be possible without hydraulic systems. Construction vehicles, cable cars, and most manufacturing machines all run with the use of hydraulics, no theatre stage would rotate, no harvesting machine would work with speed and precision and unloading trucks would be near impossible.

Open Therapeutic Corrective Exercise Session (Group)

Your therapy specialists FIX offer treatments for corrective, therapeutic and rehabilitation needs. These therapies include:

Myotherapy:

Myotherapy is a specialised manual therapy that is aimed at treating and managing the soft tissues of the body. These soft tissues include muscular and connective tissues and their interactions with body systems. A Myotherapist uses their supporting knowledge of the anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, biomechanics and pathology to understand the relationships between the myofascia (muscles and related connective tissues), and how the muscles and connective tissues relate to other systems of the body. Myotherapists use their clinical examination skills to locate the sources of your symptoms to identify any dysfunctions. Where symptoms or dysfunctions exist, treatment is aimed to normalise sensation and function. Where no symptoms exist, management of this area aims to optimise function, posture and movement resulting in the relief of pain and the return of normal sensation, posture and movement.

Myotherapist, Adrian Crestani performing a Passive Hamstring Stretch.

Remedial Massage:

Remedial Massage treatment is a deep tissue massage with a relaxation component. Remedial Massage combines deep tissue massage techniques and relaxation therapy, to help balance both the body and mind. Generally, the emphasis of these treatments is on the body as a whole but can be more specific as needed.

Sports Therapy:

Sports Therapy provides immediate care and treatment of injuries and soreness through Remedial Massage and Corrective Exercise. Sports Therapy also focuses on injury prevention and optimisation of performance by utilising sports and exercise specific principles. Sports Therapists can also plan and implement appropriate programs.

Corrective Exercise Sessions:

Corrective Exercise Sessions are tailored to clients’ individual needs and can be specific to: • Rehabilitation after surgery • Recovery from muscle/joint trauma • Restriction of movement • Strength deficits • Poor movement patterns Or if you would simply prefer, we can tailor a program specified to your goals or needs of movement. During these sessions, your instructor will conduct several different types of testing and from there, will teach you the basis of ‘neutral spine’ and provide a corrective exercise program tailored to your body’s needs to help you improve. Your program can be continued at home or you can progress into our Open Therapeutic Corrective Exercise Sessions.

Pilates & Yoga Waiting Area

Studios for a range of classes Our purpose-built clinic offers two large Pilates studios as well as a Yoga studio.

Reformer Pilates:

Utilising spring-loaded ‘Reformer’ machines, these classes are designed to help you achieve a strong lean physique without building bulk or stressing your joints. These sessions are for anyone, of any age, at any fitness level. We ask that all participants complete a term of beginners initially. This is where we teach the basics of completing the exercises while using ‘neutral spine.’ Our class levels include beginners, slow intermediate, intermediate, advanced, pregnancy, parents and bubs as well as teenagers.

Pregnancy Pilates:

Pregnancy Pilates is dedicated to supporting mums to help maintain fitness and building strength. We focus on a smooth, efficient and balanced program to help develop your core, the deep stabilising muscles which are key to good posture, balance and strength. The low impact nature of Pilates, which trains your body to be strong and flexible, teamed with deep breathing and relaxation is an ideal way to stay clam when you need it the most. At the end of our small, personalised classes you will leave feeling refreshed, relaxed and renewed.

Mat Pilates:

Mat Pilates is Pilates exercises performed on the floor without the reformer. Mat Pilates is a fantastic way to build strength and flexibility as well as learn exercises that can be continued at home. Pilates accessories are also utilised to continue challenging participants.

Yoga Classes:

Our style of Yoga is a flowing series of postures, which is helpful in unifying breath, movement and mind. Its focus is to create heat and energy flow through the system, increasing suppleness and awareness. Yoga builds core strength, lightness and deep conditioning to improve balance and posture while nurturing your spirit. We do appreciate that every body is different and work towards an enriching, calm and empowering class for you, focusing only on seeking nothing more than reaching towards your own individual potential. “Through steady and consistent practice of Yoga, maintaining your focus and using your breath, you are able to stay present, one breath at a time”

Parents and Bubs Pilates:

Bring your baby (newborn to crawler) and enjoy the benefits of postnatal Pilates in a safe and baby friendly environment. See and feel the changes in your body within a few weeks. Our exclusive Parents and Bubs Classes will strengthen your pelvic floor and deep abdominal muscles and improve your overall strength, flexibility and posture. These classes are a must for mums but dads are also more than welcome to take advantage of these classes.

Teen Pilates:

Bid to host “The People’s Games” AS a first of a kind vision, the Greater Victorian Com monwealth Games would see venues for the 10 compulsory Commonwealth Games events include Greater Bendigo Indoor Aquatic Leisure Centre to host the Aquatics including ParaSwimming Events, Boxing at Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports and Entertainment Complex in Traralgon, Hockey at Geelong Stead Park Hockey Centre, Netball at Ballarat Sports and Events Centre, Men’s and Women’s Rugby 7’s at Simonds Stadium in Geelong and Weightlifting and ParaPowerlifting at Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports and Entertainment Complex in Traralgon. Shepparton would host the Athletics including Para-Athletic Events at the Shepparton Sports Precinct, Lawn Bowls including Para-Lawn Bowls at Shepparton Park Bowls Club and Squash at Shepparton Sports Stadium. Preliminary ideas for venues of optional Commonwealth Games events also include Men’s Basketball at the Shepparton Sports Stadium, Triathlon at Victoria Park Lake in Shepparton, Women’s Basketball at Bendigo Stadium, Road Cycling at the Warrnambool/ Port Campbell, Mountain Bike Cycling at Mount Buller and Track Cycling at Bendigo’s Tom Flood Centre, Diving at the Greater Bendigo Indoor Aquatic Leisure Centre, Gymnastics at the Geelong Convention Centre, Rowing at Lake Nagambie, Sailing at Lake Mulwala, Yarrawonga and Tennis at Wodonga Lawn Tennis Centre. Members of the 13 member 2030 bid ‘taskforce’ met for the first time following the announcement on Thursday last week, to commence stage one of the work in exploring the possibility of a regional bid. Chaired by former Swisse Wellness managing director, Adem Karafili, other committee members include deputy chair, Nick Holland, Heloise Pratt AM, Peter Crinis, Radek Sali, Mitch Catlin, Andrew Ryan, Leon Spellson, The Hon Jeanette Powell, Margaret Zita, Lauren Jackson AO and John Steffensen and the Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Cr Dinny Adem. The committee will be due to hand down its preliminary report on June 30, with the final report due two weeks later. Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Cr Dinny Adem said, “What we have unveiled is a ‘first of its kind’ vision, and what we believe could form the blueprint for future major sporting events given the cost required and infrastructure needed to hold global competitions like the Commonwealth Games. “Importantly, staging a ground-breaking concept such as this across regional cities and towns will leave a legacy for millions of people like we have never seen before. The economic and social impact will be so significant, not to mention the wave of optimism that would sweep the state.” As part of the bid concept, Greater Shepparton City Council is proposing up to three test events for the 2030 Commonwealth Games – Cricket, Softball and /or B each Volleyball in M ildura and BMX in Shepparton, with Greater Shepparton Council currently bidding for the BMX World Cup. “Under this top-line schedule, we envisage that the focus for proposed

competition venues will be on significant upgrades to existing infrastructure to ensure Commonwealth Games regulations are met rather than building brand new facilities across the board at large expense,” Cr Adem said. “Naturally, we do envisage that some temporary infrastructure will be required to house athletes and games activities as part of a satellite approach. “The legacy of such upgrades is that regional cities and towns would be in a prime position to successfully bid for future national and international events for years to come. This means ongoing investment and benefits into local economies for decades,” Cr Adem said. Formal approaches have already been made with the Victorian Premier, The Hon Daniel Andrews MP and Victorian Minister for Sport, and Tourism and Major Events, The Hon John Eren, along with the Prime Minister of Australia, Malcolm Turnbull MP and new Federal Sports Minister and Victorian MP, Greg Hunt. “Naturally this idea won’t even get off the ground without very significant support across all levels of government and the private sector. Parties of all political persuasions have been talking for years about the importance of delivering jobs and investment strategies for regional areas and this ambitious but very real proposal will deliver on many, many fronts and for many, many years. No one does major events, particularly major sporting events, better than Victorians. “We see ourselves as Australia’s regional sporting hub and this will put a stamp on that. If the bid is successful, hosting the Commonwealth Games would just be the icing on the cake,” Cr Adem said. Bid committee chair, Adem Karafili said, “It is such an honour to be working with so many talented people on trying to bring this dream alive. There is no doubt that this idea has very strong foundations and it is the job of the committee to ensure we can take this to the next step. “I still have many family members living in the Shepparton region so this project has a real personal connection for me.” Australian sporting legend, Lauren Jackson is fully behind the innovative campaign. “I live in Bellbridge, which is close to Wodonga, and the impact an event like this would on our town and across the state is

actually hard to imagine. It will literally be a game-changer for millions of people and I really hope our dream becomes a reality.” Former runner and current Athletics Australia board member, John Steffensen said, “It’s such an honour to be involved in this process. We have seen how Nitro in Melbourne revolutionised athletics globally, and I strongly believe a regional Commonwealth Games in my home State will be unparalleled in its transformation of major sporting events.” Independent Member for the Shepparton District Suzanna Sheed is leading the

political charge to secure support from all levels of government. “This is an amazing opportunity for our regional cities to host and engage with the 2030 Commonwealth Games, and I commend Greater Shepparton City Council for this visionary project. “In politics, it is so easy to think in short term only. This is truly planning for our future, and represents the chance for regional Victorian cities to showcase themselves and to participate in the wealth creation that comes from great events,” Ms Sheed said.

More growth in Shepparton WORK WELL DONE… Spade directors David and Susan Marshall may be retiring but they’ll still be connected to the business and will have continued involvement in regional community activities and eventsL. Photo: Nicholise Garner

SHEPPARTON businesses will benefit strongly from the rapid growth of Cloud Copy Click following the acquisition of Spade Computers in Shepparton last week. Cloud Copy Click general manager, Dean Primmer said, “Cloud Copy Click is overwhelmingly driven by providing businesses with the ability to focus on productivity and trust in their technology and office solutions being looked after across the board. “T he acqu isition of such a longstanding office support business like Spade Computers is only going to put more resources around keeping businesses ahead of the curve on technology and support,’’ he said. It’s also business as usual for customers of Spade, with the existing Spade team continuing to deliver quality advice and service on office equipment and IT support. Cloud Copy Click’s Shepparton team now numbers 12 employees with the purchase of Spade, while directors David and Sue Marshall are planning retirement as well as a continued involvement in regional community activities and events. Spade computers has been supplying and servicing computers and copiers throughout the Goulburn Valley region since 1981 and the acquisition of the brand is a perfect fit for the growing Cloud Copy Click brand. “It (the purchase of Spade) is a perfect fit really. For a business to have to ring two,

three or even four different organisations to keep productivity and efficiencies, is often a time consuming and costly exercise. “T his latest announcement means business will benefit from having one support agency across all its essential office

technology. It’s just makes good business sense,’’ said Mr Primmer. Find Cloud Copy Click at 33 Hoskin Street, Shepparton or call them on 1300 136 069.

Royal Freemasons honours 150 year legacy T HE chief executive of Royal Freemasons, Felix Pintado announced recently a major service development program that will deliver 840 new aged care beds across six sites in regional Victoria over the next two and a half years. Construction is nearing completion in Bendigo and Sale, which are due to open in May and August this year respectively. The four other sites are Bacchus Marsh, Moe, Benalla and Langwarrin. Five of the sites will provide 144 aged care beds each and one site is planned for 120 beds. M r Pi nt ado sa id t hat t he a mbit ious projec t , i n t he organisation’s 150th year of operation as a not-for-profit provider in Victoria, will enable Royal Freemasons to deliver its strategic growth plan for 2013-2018 and will set the foundations for its next advance as a sector leader. The six high-quality, purpose-built facilities will bring the total to almost 2,000 aged care beds operated by Royal Freemasons across 17 sites in Victoria.

Page 34 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1350 Wednesday, April 19, 2017

“The development program is a win-win on many levels. The services provided will help to address the growing need for quality aged care and accommodation among a broader group of elders in each of the local communities and the surrounding districts,” Mr Pintado said. “The projects will also create jobs for local tradespeople during the construction period and, as the facilities become operational, new jobs will come on-line providing work for hundreds of aged care and allied health workers on an ongoing basis. Recruitment for the facility in Bendigo has already commenced. “The deliberate strategy has afforded Royal Freemasons a unique opportunity to establish a strong presence in rural and regional Victoria to complement its already substantial presence in metropolitan Melbourne. It means that we can play an increasing role in the future and growth of these communities,” Mr Pintado said.

STAG to bare flesh on stage IN September 2017 Shepparton Theatre Arts Group is presenting the cheeky but moving play Calendar Girls written by Tim Firth, and the group is currently searching for talented performers. Four males and nine females over 18, who not afraid to bare a little flesh, are being sought, with those interested encouraged to attend an information night on Wednesday, April 19 from 7pm.
 This hilarious but touching play follows the character Annie after her husband, John dies of Leukaemia. She and best friend, Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They manage to persuade four fellow WI members to pose nude with them for an “alternative” calendar, with a little help from hospital porter and amateur photographer, Lawrence. The news of the women’s charitable venture spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on the small village of Knapeley in the Yorkshire Dales. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annie’s friendship is put to the test under the strain of their new-

found fame. Based on the true story of eleven WI members who posed nude for a calendar to raise money for the Leukaemia Research Fund, Calendar Girls opened at the Chichester Festival Theatre and has since become the fastest selling play in British theatre history. Co-directors, Bron Prater and Cindy Abbey are looking for a cast not afraid to bare a little flesh. “We are seeking individuals who want to be a part of something that is hilarious and at times extremely moving,” Ms Prater said. “The play is about loss, friendship, hope, determination and ultimately acceptance. We look forward to presenting something that will be a little cheeky for Shepparton audiences.” Auditions will be held on April 28 and 29 and a photo shoot with successful auditionees for a 2018 calendar will be on May 6. For more information, contact Nicky Pummeroy on 0408 361 893.

HIGH COST OF LEASING… Landlords across the Goulburn Valley have received more than $224,000 in insurance payouts to repair damage to their properties that they have leased, according to 2016 figures released by RACV. Photo: Supplied.

Goulburn Valley landlords’ damage bill increases GOULBURN Valley landlords received more than $224,000 in insurance payouts to repair damage to property leased last year, according to new RACV data. This represented an 18 percent rise compared to 2015, however the number of claims only increased by one, from 49 to 50. Across Victoria, landlord insurance claims increased almost 24 percent and cost almost 11 percent more in 2016 than in the year previous. Storms and malicious tenants were the most significant reasons for landlord insurance claims. Storm damage across the state accounted for the largest proportion of landlord insurance claims at 29 percent while escaping water claims (e.g. from burst pipes) resulted in 18 percent of all claims and caused more than $2.8M in damage. Stormdamage related costs tripled in 2016 when compared to the

Page 36 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1350 Wednesday, April 19, 2017

previous year, totalling almost $3.2M. Overall, Victorian tenants were more reliable in 2016, with landlord insurance claims for malicious damage, rental defaults, or leave without notice dropping by four percent. However, the cost of the claims still totalled nearly $6M and was slightly more than in 2015. RACV Home Insurance general manager, Stacey Maher said, “In addition to tenants causing damage, landlords should also consider the cost of natural disasters, such as storms, floods and fires and how a lack of adequate insurance cover could seriously impact their investment return “The RACV data reinforces the importance for landlords to protect their investment by having the right type of policy in place and to know what they are covered for.”

SE AT TLE is a vibrant town; a ver y interesting city with a population of just over 600,000. It’s easy to get around and quite close to the Canadian border. Highlights include the Pike Place Market, Space Needle and The Boeing Factory, where you could spend a whole day because the factory is so big it is said to have its own climate. The hop-on, hop-off bus is always a good way to see the city highlights and like many cities near the coast you can ride the ducks. These amphibian vehicles can tour the city and drive down a boat launching ramp to take you on a waterborn experience. Seattle features a number of homes both floating and on stilts and, of course, the most famous was the home in the movie Sleepless in Seattle starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. The duck takes you right past the floating home used in the movie. It recently sold for some $2M. The river homes both float and are on pylons and some of the newer ones go down two storeys under the water, so you can have dinner while you watch the fish go by through huge round windows. After some time in Seattle, I decided to travel by train to L.A. It’s called the Starlight Express, a sleeper train that travels along the coast through San Francisco and arriving in L.A. 36 hours later. The journey is very interesting from Washington. You travel through Oregon and then into California, and as well as great views along the shoreline, there is a huge irrigation area that runs through a

massive valley. They grow just about everything and it’s known as the edible garden of America. It’s so big it took over an hour to travel through the valley. Buses brought in pickers who worked out in the hot sun harvesting the bounty. The planted area is so big that each bus towed a trailer with portable toilets for the workers. I wondered if these might have been some of the illegal workers who keep the economy going with cheap labour. Finally we arrived in L.A. It’s been years since I have been here and there is much to experience, but I found myself being drawn to Universal Studios, where they have just opened their latest adventure, the Harry Potter experience. There were people of all ages wondering around in Harry Potter outfits and many with wands. You are taken to the wand master in front of a huge wall of wands in their boxes that start jumping out at you until a wand selects you. They are interactive and as you walk around the exhibit a wave of your wand can make f lowe r s ope n, f rogs a ppe ar, make Quidditch balls rise into air and perform all manner of magical things. You can spend a whole day there. It’s fun for all ages and so is Disneyland and L.A.’s nightlife, but for me the experience is over and it’s time to catch my Qantas flight and head home. It’s good to be back. Until next time, Safe Travel’n, Geoff Vallance

Plan to tackle crime THE Nationals in coalition with the Liberals plan to take a tough approach on crime if elected next year, following a 20 percent rise in crime across the state. In Shepparton, the crime rate has risen a whopping 14.98 percent since 2014. Member for Euroa and Deputy Leader of The Nationals, Steph Ryan said it was clear a different approach was needed and the Coalition had a clear plan to tackle crime. “Rather than more of the same soft on crime approach, an elected Liberal-Nationals government would take a tough approach and introduce mandatory minimum jail sentences for the most dangerous offenders in our community,” Ms Ryan said. “Violent repeat offenders shouldn’t be getting second, third and fourth chances to commit violent crimes - no more excuses, no more second chances, it’s two strikes and you’re in.” The minimum sentences would apply to 11 violent offences, including rape, aggravated burglary, manslaughter by single punch or strike and murder. Ms Ryan said these changes would extend to all areas of our community. “Perpetrators of domestic violence, who think they can ignore the lessons of earlier violent behaviour, will face long sentences for their contempt for our laws,” Ms Ryan said. Ms Ryan said it joined a broader suit of earlier announcements by the Liberals and The Nationals on bail, sentencing, police resourcing and youth justice which would be needed to make Victoria safer. “In addition to sentences that better reflect community standards, the Liberals and The Nationals will deny parole to convicted murders who refuse to disclose the location of their victims, we will reinstate Neighbourhood Watch funding, introduce new carjacking offences and abolish cash payment for scrap metal,” Ms Ryan said. “We will name and shame repeat violent offenders, expose the

A RARE FIND… Local resident, Andrew Colley couldn’t pass up buying this rare, 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Rally Sport 307 when he came across it in 2014. Photos: Alicia Niglia.

A real

head turner By David Lee THE striking LeMans Blue colour and the grunt of a V8 engine with 200 horsepower of local resident, Andrew Colley’s 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Rally Sport 307, certainly is a head turner. The rare Camaro began its life being purchased new from the factory in July 1969 at a cost of $3,895 before being purchased in 2000 and restored by its next owner from New Jersey. In 2005, it had been restored back to original condition and was sold in 2013 to a Queensland resident, which is where Andrew came across it in 2014.

I was always after something original and you couldn’t get a car that was original and in this kind of condition, so as soon as I saw it I had to buy. “This is the first Camaro I have owned, so it’s a pretty special thing for me. “It’s in stock standard condition and is pretty much as it would have been when it rolled off the factory floor. There is not a stone chip on it. “It’s a real head turner. Wherever I go, people comment on it. People pull up at the lights and roll their windows down to tell me how nice of a car it is.”

Tigers roar into town

ON THE back of a four game unbeaten winning streak to start the season Richmond Football Club players have taken a little time out to visit Shepparton this week, as part of the AFL Goulburn Murray player appearance program. Dion Prestia, Shaun Grigg, Ben Lennon, Jayden Short, Kane Lambert, Oleg Markov, Kamdyn McIntosh and local boy, Nathan Drummond roared into town on Tuesday to visit schools, run a multicultural coaching session and conduct a super clinic for local primary school children. Over 450 local grade 5 and 6 students were involved in the super clinic held at Kialla Park Recreation Reserve, with the Richmond players teaching the art of kicking, handballing, marking and other fun activities before a question and answer session finished off the program. In the afternoon, players visited secondary schools to talk about leadership, training programs and the life of a being a professional sports person, before they headed to Victory Park on St Georges Road where they took students from Sirius College and Shepparton English Language Centre through in a skill development session

Goulburn Murray offices getting a facelift NEW alterations and refurbishment works have commenced at the AFL Goulburn Murray offices at Kialla Park Community Centre and are expected to be completed by the end of June. The AFL Goulburn Murray Commission organisation has undergone a sustained period of growth over recent years and now requires larger premises to facilitate current operations and continue to support community sporting programs. After completion of the project the new refurbishment will offer, a boardroom to seat 10-12 people, which will also function

as a Tribunal room, a second smaller meeting room to accommodate four to six people, a trophy cabinet to showcase major trophies, a Goulburn Valley League Hall Of Fame physical display, extra storage space, a revamped and more accessible front entrance and workstations to accommodate up to 15 staff including Netball Victoria representation. A F L G o u l b u r n M u r r ay r e g i o n a l manager, Martin Gleeson said, “We have well and truly outgrown our current office environment after significant growth over the past three years.

“As we continue to grow resource and service levels for leagues and clubs we have been exploring our options and I am pleased that as part of the renovations Kialla Park will become the region’s football and netball administrative hub into the future. “The finished project will be a much more conducive and appropriate workspace for staff as well as providing an effective administrative base for the football and netball community.” Greater Shepparton City Council has contributed $247,000 to the alterations and

refurbishment, with AFL Goulburn Murray contributing additional costs associated with the project. G re ater Sheppa r ton C it y C ou nci l Director Infrastructure, Steve Bowmaker said, “This project has the potential to d e velop i nto a r e g ion a l sp or t s administration hub in Greater Shepparton and will be of great benefit for the future of AFL and netball in the Greater Shepparton community.” Due to construction, there are limited car parks at the Kialla Park Community Centre.

Shepparton locals urged to get physical SHEPPARTON locals are being urged to get moving as new research from health promotion foundation VicHealth shows more than 64 percent of residents do not do enough physical activity during the week to meet recommended guidelines. VicHealth CEO, Jerril Rechter is calling on the local community to get active to improve their health and mental wellbeing. “Daily activity is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle, helping us reduce our risk of chronic disease and improve our mental wellbeing. “Yet our research has shown too many Shepparton residents are not getting enough exercise, with only 35 percent of community members exercising on four or more days a week and 20 percent doing no physical activity at all. “You don’t need to spend hours at the gym to stay healthy and active. Making exercise an easy and enjoyable part of your day by walking to school or work or joining a local sports team is a great way to keep fit.” Ms Rechter said the research results from Shepparton reflected the concerning levels of physical inactivity across Victoria. “We know that as a whole Victorians have become more sedentary and this is having a major impact on our health. “Two in three Victorian adults, and one in four of our children, are overweight or obese, and physical inactivity is one of the top 10 leading risk factors for death worldwide. “It doesn’t have to be this way. Our research shows that every step really does count, and anything that gets you moving is beneficial to your health.”

GET ACTIVE… Local residents are being urged to get active, after VicHealth released data showing that 64 percent of residents do not do enough physical activity. Photo: Supplied.

Football Followers have the chance to WIN BIG during the 2017 AFL football season with Viatek/The Adviser Football Tipping Competition. Each week there will be a prize of $50 to be spent at any of the 22 supporting business houses. All you have to do is place a tick against the football team that you think will win each game. Be careful with your selections as only correct entries will go into the draw for the weekly $50 voucher. If no correct entry is received the prize will jackpot each week until a correct entry is submitted. Entries will only be accepted at the office, 219-225 Wyndham Street, Shepparton, no later than 5pm on each Friday during 2017, 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.
