Solid Gold BENDIGO has been Victoria’s economic shining light over the past decade, allowing the city to shake its “can’t-do” parochial tag.

Major economic indicators point to the city experiencing its largest growth spurt since the Goldrush.

In the 11 years to 2012, Bendigo’s Gross Regional Product was the envy of the state, outgrowing all other major Victorian regional centres.

HARGREAVES Mall is pumping with activity, business booms and new blood has arrived.

The mall is serving up three new businesses, Mix & Go FroYo, Iobento and Typo.

Bendigo Traders’ Association president Ross White said the new businesses were a “great asset� to the CBD. “It shows confidence in the area and how they are fitting in nicely. They are also bringing in a different clientele,� he said. “It’s a positive move to see those shops full. The food stores are unique to the area.

Things are looking up.�

Dungey Carter Ketterer Real Estate director Robert Ketterer agreed there was renewed business confidence in the Mall.

PG24 COOL: Frozen yoghurt on offer.

SUSHI: A taste of Japan. “There are three new businesses not previously in the Mall and three new lines of products,� he said. “This confidence re-focusses people’s thinking. It gives people a reason to get out there.�

Originally from Geelong, Mix & Go FroYo is the latest in summer treats.

The self-serve frozen yoghurt is mixing it up with people enjoying it during the warm weather.

Bendigo’s newest Japanese restaurant, Iobento, has locals rapt serving sushi, bento and noodles.

Yutaka Sawa owners opened the new business in the Mall, confident about the business’ growth.

Typo made its mark, prior to the Christmas rush, and has committed to a long-term rental agreement after sustained retail success. “They have the confidence to commit to a long-term lease in the Mall,� Mr Ketterer said.

Only two vacant shops remain in the Mall.

The former Athletes Foot store remains empty as the business shifted across the Mall to bigger and brighter premises.

The second, seated between Factorie and Banjo’s Bakehouse Cafe, is ready to contribute to the hive of commercial activity.

Yet, the Mall is once again, a thriving retail centre.

IRONBARK and Long Gully are holding firm as Bendigo’s top two median value suburbs.

According to RP Data, the suburbs have seen a 5.3 and 5.1 per cent respective median house value rise in the year to September.

Yet according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ 2011 report, Long Gully was in the state’s top two per cent of most disadvantaged suburbs.

But CR Martin Real Estate director Clive Martin said Bendigo’s property market is knocking with opportunities. “There is a steady flow of new listings with $400,000 properties in high demand,� Mr Martin said. “This type of property is more highly sought after, especially over the last 12 months, in attractive suburbs.�

Mr Martin said the average house has risen from $350,000 in 2013 to $400,000 this year. “The land value is getting higher and higher. It all comes back to supply and demand,� he said.

Top three performing suburbs, Strathfieldsaye, Elmore and Strathdale have seen the strongest median values recording a 10.3, 9.5 and 8.4 per cent rise, respectively.

Greater Bendigo’s perennial top 10 performers such as Huntly, Golden Square and university suburbs Flora Hill and Kennington are all recording significant median value growth.

Mr Martin said there is a strong demand for three to four bedroom rental homes “in and around� La Trobe University. “The rental market is starting to pick up with more people inquiring since the new year especially with placements and their studies,� he said. “We are seeing new faces, people from out of town with a strong interest. “There is not much of a vacancy rate, it is pretty low. There is a high demand for rental properties.�

Yet urban growth is fuelling the demand for properties in the emerging suburbs Strathfieldsaye and Huntly.

Maiden Gully remains the most expensive suburb with a median house costing $436,613.

Prime real estate and serviceable homes remain the key to Bendigo’s housing market’s high demand.

Council offers park plan choice

By CHRISTINE McGINN

TWO Rosalind Park Recreation Reserve Precinct Masterplan concepts have been released for community feedback.

Greater Bendigo council released the plans yesterday and are urging the community to have their say on the park.

Preserving a passive parkland, Concept A aims to retain and creatively reuse the historic buildings.

It aims to form a sunken garden on the Barnard Street tennis courts site, build a sensory garden within part of Tom Flood Sports Centre and limit vehicle access.

The second, Concept

B, proposes diversity with both passive and active parkland for flexible community use.

Under this concept, all buildings would be retained for a “useful purpose”, a multi-purpose rec-

lenge residents’ thinking about Rosalind Park’s future.

“The concept plans consider two timeframes: short to medium-term initiatives to be implemented over the next five to 25 years and a

We are confident they suggest positive improvements to the park reation space built on the Barnard Street tennis court site with parking beneath and an informal recreation and events area in part of the Tom Flood Sports Centre.

Greater Bendigo strategy manager Trevor Budge said the plans will chal-

long-term vision spanning the next generation or two,” he said.

“Each concept is the result of considerable consultation with the community and Steering Committee and reflects a diverse range of ideas, themes and perspectives.

“We are confident they suggest positive improvements to the park and will further enhance Bendigo as a liveable and inviting city.”

Residents are urged to share their preference for a certain concept or aspects from each with the Strategy Unit now until mid-February.

The community feedback will help inform the Draft Masterplan to be prepared in the coming months.

Locals can view the plans and complete the survey online at www.bendigo.vic.gov.au/rosalindpark, request a printed version or send comments to strategyunit@bendigo.vic.gov. au.

Pool a step closer THE Greater Bendigo Indoor Aquatic Leisure Centre and Wellbeing Centre schematic plans were released this week.

Greater Bendigo Mayor Barry Lyons said the high quality plans bring the city’s “number one priority” a step closer.

“This is an exciting next step towards the project becoming ‘shovel ready,’ which enhances our case for funding from the state and federal governments,” he said.

The two storey, $30 million development planning proposal is set to be lodged next month.

Councillor Lyons said development would be a wholistic centre, catering to the community’s needs.

“The plans feature an eight-lane 50 metre swimming pool, hydrotherapy warm water pool and spa, children’s splash play and learn to swim pool, gymnasium, wellness centre,

“The new centre will be a 21st Century facility in design and concept and will be an important recreation and economic asset for Greater Bendigo.”

City architect Don Goldsworthy said the plans were “in context with the urban landscape”.

Acting chief executive officer Stan Liacos said

council would lobby state and federal governments for financial support.

“This will be a quality regional development,” he said “Originally the agreement [verbal] was each area of government would contribute a third.

“We are getting encouraging signs at particularly a state level.”

Mr Liacos said council would apply to the Re-

gional Development Fund expected to be revived next year.

“This is one of the most important projects council has agreed to and the benefits for the community will be long lasting,” he said.

The project is expected to take 15 months, once planning and funding arrangements, are approved.

The centre will be located off Browning Street in Kangaroo Flat.

JUNORTOUN Fire Brigade Captain Luke Carracher says “fire safety starts with you”.

“After had the first heat wave of summer, there have been hundreds of fires across the state, and being prepared makes you safer from bushfires”, Captain Carracher said.

Local hazards such as crop and grassfires around the smaller towns of the district and the outer residential areas of Bendigo make it particularly important that everyone is ready.

“The special danger of grassfires is that they can move very quickly, which leaves you very little time to respond if you have not prepared and been alert for warnings,” Mr Carracher said.

“Being well prepared means every member of the family is alert on days of high fire danger and knows what to do straight away if there’s a fire in the area.

“Having a good plan for

your family’s safety means you’re not caught out if something goes wrong; a missed warning, a power failure, a road closure or bad decisions made in a hurry.”

The Junortoun Fire Brigade volunteers have a simple tip to get you started; have a battery powered radio and a torch where you can easily find them.

Such items will come in handy if there is a power failure, whether it is bushfire related or not.

“There are easy sources of good advice; the State Government’s www.emergency.vic. gov.au website has the latest, you can get today’s conditions and warnings or order an information kit from the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667,” Captain Carracher said.

“Your local CFA volunteers are trained, qualified and ready to protect this community, and we want you to be ready too, because fire safety starts with you.”

Park plan choice may hit schools

By CHRISTINE McGINN

BENDIGO Senior Secondary College and Camp Hill Primary School could be closed under a long-term Rosalind Park plan.

Council released two Rosalind Park Recreation Reserve Precinct Masterplan concepts for community feedback yesterday.

Under Concept A, the schools in the park could be turned into parkland if the Department of Education decided to close the doors.

The Bendigo Aquatic Centre could also be wiped out for parkland if future councillors agreed.

This concept would also re-use historic buildings, including those at the schools,

for other purposes.

A sunken garden on the Barnard Street tennis courts site and a sensory garden within part of Tom Flood Sports Centre would be built with limited vehicle access.

These plans cover a range of possibilities. Nothing is definite On the other hand Concept B keeps the schools and aquatic centre with both passive and active parkland for community use.

Buildings would be retained for a “useful purpose”, a multi-purpose recreation space on the Barnard Street tennis court site with

short and long term development.

“The concept plans consider two timeframes: short to medium-term initiatives to be implemented over the next five to 25 years and a long-term vision spanning the next generation or two,” he said.

“We are putting this out there. Every building in the park will eventually be up for lease.

“The school is a really positive aspect of the park and puts thousands of users in the park but also places pressure on it too.

“It says ‘we have a plan’ if you [Department of Education] leave... But it may never happen.

“These plans cover a range of possibilities. Nothing is definite.”

The Steering Committee, along with community consultation assisted the concept plans’ development.

AUSTRALIA DAY 2014 Sporting Sam steps out for Borough event TV presenter and sports journalist, Samantha Lane, will kick off Australia Day celebrations in Eaglehawk this year.

Selected as an official Australia Day Ambassador, Samantha will share her Australia Day message and stories from her career on Prime7’s AFL coverage, The Age, Southern Cross Ten’s Before the Game and ABC Radio AFL coverage.

“It’s not every day Eaglehawk attracts national attention and we’re thrilled that Samantha Lane has been chosen as Eaglehawk’s Australia Day Ambassador given Samantha’s high profile and love of sport and people,” Eaglehawk Australia Day Committee’s Séamus Haugh said.

“Samantha is a big inspiration to other young women who aspire

to a career in sports journalism, having followed in her legendary father’s footsteps, Tim Lane.

SOLID GOLD

Bendigo the envy of the state SPECIAL REPORT

WIDER OUTLOOK: Bendigo ‘can do’.

Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

By ANTHONY RADFORD

BENDIGO has been Victoria’s economic shining light over the past decade, allowing the city to shake its “can’t-do” parochial tag.

Major economic indicators point to the city experiencing its largest growth spurt since the Goldrush.

In the 11 years to 2012, Bendigo’s Gross Regional Product was the envy of the state, outgrowing all other major Victorian regional centres.

On top of that, an analysis of financial and support contributions from local, state and federal governments has resulted in thousands of jobs created since 2007.

Gross Regional Product is the market value of all final goods and services produced within an area in a given period of time.

From 2002 to 2012, Bendigo’s headline GRP grew by more than 37.6 per cent, or $1.3 billion, to $4.57 billion.

That equates to 3.42 per cent a year. The average GRP growth across the state during that time was less than three per cent.

Wodonga was next best with growth around three per cent, followed by Ballarat and Geelong.

Per capita, Bendigo’s growth was also the best in the state.

Added to that is the impressive impact of programs and projects created with support from local, state and federal governments.

A conservative analysis, not including the $1 billion Bendigo hospital, or the 1.5 per cent residential growth per year, has put such contributions at $690 million.

A REMPLAN Impact Report has found a total effect from that contribution to be $1.6 billion,

with a flow-on in wage and salaries of $288.7m and a value-add of $562.2m.

All in all, the $690m contribution has added $2.45 billion to the Bendigo economy since 2007, creating an estimated 4,321 jobs.

The contribution of tourism to the Bendigo economy has also grown significantly since 2007, rising from $868m to $1.15 billion in 2012, or more than 10 per cent of the region’s economy.

Greater Bendigo acting chief executive officer Stan Liacos said the economic figures were historic.

“In 50 years’ time they will recognise this as the biggest growth spurt Bendigo has had

since the Goldrush days,” he said.

“The last 10-or-so-years-period has been steady progress.

“If you look at the crystal ball of what lies ahead, there is nothing to suggest our positive momentum and growth is going to slow.”

Mr Liacos said the past decade has been an economic and cultural coming of age for Bendigo.

He said the city was shaking its “it-won’t-work-here” attitude.

“We have outperformed all other notable regional cities in Victoria and we should be very proud of that,” he said.

“It is a remarkable achievement. We are not getting the Ballarat comparisons any more.

“A lot of civic pride has been engendered in Bendigo in recent years.

“Bendigo doesn’t think of itself as second-rate anymore. Importantly, the rest of Victoria is beginning to hear great things about Bendigo.

“It is no longer being seen as a static country town, but a dynamic small city. The word is getting out.”

Despite the success, Mr Liacos said now was not the time for Bendigo to become complacent.

“We have to remain positive as a community,” he said.

“We musn’t self-doubt and must have confidence to try different things.”

Man of steel Riley takes delivery IF you are out Epsom way you may notice a rather special mailbox.

Sisters Beryl Bevan and Val Hogan have taken their rather interesting approach because they were sick of looking at boring mailboxes around town. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why be like everyone else?â&#x20AC;? Beryl said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I decided to have something made that would stand out. A friend asked me what I wanted it to look like. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So I drew him a sketch and said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;use your imagination on thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.â&#x20AC;?

Last Saturday the box took pride of place on Peacock Avenue, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even got a place for the Bendigo Weekly.

ONE young lady has been given a lift by winning the naming the crane competition.

The first crane to grace the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skyline on the $630 million Bendigo Hospital Project has been named Ben, in honour of the former Bendigo Base Hospital.

Neve Nisbet, aged 7, of Wedderburn, won the right to name the first crane in the Name the Cranes competition run by Bendigo Health, and project partners Exemplar Health and Lend Lease.

State Liberal Member for Northern Victoria Amanda Millar said the crane was a Favelle M310D with a 55 metre reach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be able to lift loads of up to 3.7 tonne, just over the weight of two family sedans,â&#x20AC;? Mrs Millar said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The crane will be 33 metres high, initially, and will later be increased to 45 metres, towering over the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skyline. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to congratulate Neve on naming the first crane, which will bear the moniker Ben, and look for-

ward to announcing three further winners as work progresses on the biggest health development in regional Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Victorian Coalition Government encourages everyone in Bendigo and the region to embrace this project which will deliver an outstanding facility providing the highest quality healthcare for people in the region. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The other successful entries will be announced as the cranes go up and the winners will be invited on site to see the crane they

have named.â&#x20AC;?

Mrs Millar said the new hospital was progressing on time and on budget for project completion in 2016. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This new hospital will make Bendigo Health the leading regional integrated health service in Australia and, importantly, people living in Bendigo and the Loddon Mallee will be able to access the best available health services locally without having to travel down the Calder Highway to Melbourne,â&#x20AC;?

Mrs Millar said.

A $6 million residential development is set to be built in North Bendigo.

The 29 double storey, double bedroom townhouses on 61 to 65 Thunder Street are paving the way for a new residential development.

Owner and property planner Daniel Bowden said the homes were “unashamedly modern”.

“We are just trying to do something different but in context with the area, in a modern flavour,” he said.

Young professionals, couples and people associated with Bendigo Health are expected to move in.

The modern townhouses will be steeped in their design to ensure “site cuts are minimised”.

“The development will specifically improve housing choice among the community and achieve wider urban consolidation objectives,” the proposal stated.

“It will also ensure the policy initiatives encouraging development near major public transport facilities and the consolidation of residential activities within existing urban areas are met.”

The housing subdivision is close to Bendigo Health, the CBD and the number seven bus route.

Kavellaris Urban Design de-

STEEPED: The townhouse design has yet to be approved by council. Image: KUD signed architects designed the contemporary homes in context with their surrounds.

The sustainable design includes grey water tanks, solar hot water systems, evaporative cooling, Indigenous landscaped gardens and energy efficiency principles.

Four townhouses do not meet the required 40m2 of land but the owners hope the proximity to

open space will be sufficient.

Lots eight to 12 also fail to meet the 40m2 requirement but an upper balcony and 25m2 backyard is also hoped to be adequate.

Each townhouse will be allocated a parking space with an additional five spaces for visitors, two fewer than required.

Greater Bendigo council is yet to consider the proposed development.

Golden Square pool a big hit

GOLDEN Square Community Pool’s crowds broke records last week.

An unprecedented 2400 people visited the newly re-opened community pool, beating the entire 2011/12 summer season record of 1800.

“We are just amazed by the figure, it has exceeded expectations,” GSCP manager Ken Hamilton said.

“It really comes down to the way it is being run.

It has been a complete turn around and the community can just really see that.

“The heat has definitely played a part but it’s not all that.”

About 470 visitors went on both Wednesday and Thursday last week, topping the week’s daily visitor record.

The pool celebrated its re-opening on November 30 last year.

About 1000 people visited the pool between December 15 to 21, the previous top record since the pool’s last open summer season.

The Save Our Pool campaign and local support kept the pool afloat.

“The whole journey has been amazing. There have been four committees and about 40 volunteers working to bring the pool back to life,” Mr Hamilton said.

Greater Bendigo council originally closed the pool in November 2012, as part of a long-term pool strategy.

Mr Hamilton said the GSCP-only ticket passes have been received well by the community.

Golden Square Pool day passes begin at $3 to $10 for a family.

Diocese looks at revised Golden Square development

Back on the agenda

By CHRISTINE McGINN

AN 87 lot Golden Square subdivision is set to revive a previously controversial decision on the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s housing development.

The Sandhurst Diocese has proposed a three stage residential development at 134 to 166 Aspinall Street, Golden Square.

The 14.98 hectare site will be divided into residential lots averaging 604 square metres each.

About eight hectares of native vegetation will be removed from the site with 7.15ha set aside for a Flora and Fauna Reserve protected under a Trust for Nature Conservation Covenant.

The Bishopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house and associated outbuildings will be preserved.

Greater Bendigo council previously approved a 69 lot subdivision in 2010 on the same site after three revised subdivision plans.

The controversial de-

cision was taken to a Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal planning tribunal hearing in 2011.

The Aspinall Street Action Group, Bendigo District Environment Council and two residents won at VCAT and councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision was overturned.

Former Greater Bendigo councillor Keith Reynard opposed the councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision in 2010, preferring to preserve the native vegetation.

Mr Reynard said it was important the new proposal conserved the native vegetation and its signifi-

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a valuable and vital parcel of land and needs to be retained The three day planning tribunal hearing found â&#x20AC;&#x153;the basic philosophy underpinning the subdivision is flawedâ&#x20AC;?.

The VCAT decision did not rule out future development but called for a different planning approach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It needs to adopt a quite different and more â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;organicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; response to the highly significant native vegetation that exists,â&#x20AC;?

VCAT member Bennett said.

cance to the city. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a valuable and vital parcel of land and needs to be retained in a relatively natural state to preserve it,â&#x20AC;? the Bendigo Sustainability Group president said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Flora and Fauna Reserve provides a significant improvement on the initial planning proposal on that parcel of land.

This is a huge improvement and something the local community will appreciate.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;These blocks of land are vital for the community, for the environment and biodiversity.â&#x20AC;?

Councillor Peter Cox said all applications are considered on their merits and he will cast his vote on the plan when considered at council.

Mr Reynard said council continues to face the broader issues of ensuring smarter and more sustainable future development. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is about how we undertake future development and how we preserve peri-urban reserves,â&#x20AC;? Mr Reynard said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bendigo has a lot of urban treasures at the boundaries to the forest.

We need to know how to preserve and keep the integrity of those areas.â&#x20AC;?

Locals will have the opportunity to comment once a planning permit is approved.

The Sandhurst Diocese was contacted for comment.

Dispense with delay APPY: Pharmacist Sarah Standen with the smartphone app.

TECHNOLOGY has taken another leap with a new smart phone app Eaglehawk UFS Dispensary clients can download the free eRX Express app to order their medical prescriptions.

“The app is a great way to make collecting medicines even easier for people in the Eaglehawk and Bendigo community,” Eaglehawk UFS pharmacist Sarah Standen said.

“We expect it to be of real benefit for people who are busy, as well as anybody who might need to plan a trip to a pharmacy, whether because they live regionally, are socially

isolated, need the support of a carer, or have complications such as chronic health issues.”

Customers simply scan their scripts, using the QR code that appears on the original prescription before electronically submitting their script nominating a convenient pick up time.

The original prescription only needs to be taken into the pharmacy at the time that medicines are collected.

“Ultimately, we expect this to mean less waiting time for our customers and that’s a real positive,” Sarah said.

READY TO RIDE: Valence and brumby VBA Lana sharing a moment.

Brumby takes a ride REDESDALE horse trainer Valence Williams is saddled up and ready to take the Australian Brumby Challenge.

Based on the Mustang Makeovers in the USA, the challenge brings together a passionate group of horse trainers and a group of totally wild, unhandled Australian brumbies The brumbies have been caught from the wild in the Kosciuszko and Alpine National Parks in South Eastern Australia.

Over 100 days, the trainers have transformed their allocated brumbies into docile, friendly riding horses and future riding horses, using gentle training methods.

All trainers will demonstrate a range of compulsory manoeuvres on the ground, with the ridden challenge participants

also showing their brumbies’ skills under saddle.

Finalists will also give a freestyle display to music.

After the event, the brumbies will be offered for sale.

Ms Williams, who has been chosen to train a brumby in the event said it’s an exciting challenge.

“It’s a wonderful opportunity to showcase how great our heritage brumbies really are when given the chance,” she said.

“I’ve found brumbies to be engaging, easy to train, hardy and sound. It’s going to be difficult to see my little girl go.”

The final competition weekend is on February 1 and 2 at the Victorian Equestrian Centre in Upper Beaconsfield.

BLACK SATURDAY – FIVE YEARS ON

Community spirit saved the day NEXT month will mark five years since Bendigo’s greatest natural disaster.

One man died and 58 homes were destroyed in the Bendigo Black Saturday fire on February 7, 2009.

As the anniversary looms, Bendigo will remember the utter devastation and the heroic acts it inspired.

In the coming weeks, the Bendigo Weekly will share the journey and memories of those affected by the fires, in the lead-up to the anniversary.

WHILE the fires scorched our city on Black Saturday, Bendigo’s community spirit was in full force.

The mercury hit 45.3 on February 7, 2009, Victoria’s hottest day.

Bendigo Police senior sergeant Craig Gaffee was on duty that afternoon, leading the local police team.

“We knew it was going to be a bad day, so while we were all hoping and praying there wouldn’t be any fires, we expected some,” he said.

“That day everything was so extreme.

“The heat was so extreme, the weather was so extreme, it had been dry for so long . it started so close to a built up area and it encroached on that built up area.

“The circumstances themselves were almost like a perfect storm.”

Sen Sgt Gaffee said he was leading a team to clear the Happy Valley and Sparrowhawk roads intersection when he realised the fire was close.

“We cleared that intersection and the smoke visibility was reduced to 50 metres.

We knew the fire was coming towards us,” he said.

Concentrating on the location of police units and the fire, Sen Sgt Gaffee said he held an administrative role

during the blaze.

“It was about knowing where the fire was, where we were, trying to block off roads and also warn people the best we could, about what was coming,” he said.

Yet five years on, Sen Sgt Gaffee admits the city and its people were not prepared for Black Saturday.

But he knows if it occurred again, the tables would turn.

“I don’t think something like that would be quite as bad simply because we’ve

learnt so much and we are a lot better now communicating with the other emergency services and working together,” he said.

“As a result of that day, and the plans that are in place, we get to practise so much more.

“We are all aware of the consequences so our planning is better and a lot more informed. Certainly, we are a lot smarter about how we plan.”

But Bendigo’s spirit was its saving grace and light relief in its darkest moment.

“It was a busy day. There was lots of really good work done by everyone involved

Fire Safety Starts With You. emergency.vic.gov.au

in the emergency services,” he said.

“The response from people working that day [on the ground], those back here at the police station was phenomenonal” he said.

“We had people coming back from days on leave, trips to Melbourne, driving back to Bendigo to help out.”

The community’s resilience and unified spirit brought the city back to life.

“Bendigo is a fantastic community and we see regularly, how well the com-

munity comes together. The days after... There was heaps and heaps of support and donations from the community,” he said.

“The community is so much more informed and aware.

“The community is not so blasé about those warnings now and tend to listen better and obey police.”

Filled with a sense of relief, Sen Sgt Gaffee said if history repeated itself, we’d be prepared.

“No one wants to be in that sort of situation but knowing that if you are prepared, it makes a difference,” he said.

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, January 24, 2014

Doney then and now

Can you spot the differences?

By Dianne Dempsey

Bendigo’s changing streetscape has been depicted in a series of photographs taken by the Weekly’s award winning photographer Andrew Perryman.

Mr Perryman used as his starting point the iconic photographs of Allan doney (1900-1987).

Mr doney first moved to Bendigo in 1949 and during the 1950s and 60s, as a dedicated hobbyist, took hundreds of photographs of his surroundings, creating an astonishing record of Bendigo’s gold rush heritage. “it was a fascinating process looking for the same buildings and parts of the city that were in doney’s photographs,” Mr Perryman said. “i then tried to find the same viewpoint that he used and took the shots. While some of our heritage buildings have been maintained, there are plenty of examples where you just want to wince and say what a shame that heritage has been lost,” Mr Perryman said.

Allan doney was a

family friend of Bendigo historian James Lerk who said that one of the reasons that doney was such a good photographer was because of his fastidious nature.

“He was a tailor and they had a shop, doney’s Alterations, upstairs in the old mining brokers exchange, above Allan’s Walk. He took great care with everything he did.

“He also had a great eye. He was incredibly observant. You can tell that by the subject matter – he is intrigued by the cast iron balconies, the beautiful lacework. He loves shadows, the contrast between light and shade.

“You can tell he walked to work every morning from his house in Barnard street by the subject matter. He is watching all the time.”

Permission to use the doney photographs was given to the Weekly by the Bendigo national Trust.

As buildings were being pulled down or developed the doney photographs were instrumental in saving much of Bendigo’s beautiful heritage.

Permission to reproduce Doney images has been granted by the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) Bendigo and Region Branch, Doney Photographic Collection.

A developing story I refer to the article in fridays’ Bendigo Weekly regarding Bendigo Airport. It seems that the media unit at Greater Bendigo council is at it again and once more Stan Liacos is centre stage of another fiasco. firstly we have the Bendigo airport redevelopment project sold as a business/economic development project. This involved new buildings and a new runway to handle larger aircraft and the attraction of a new regional airline operator to Bendigo. This was exciting news.

But wait, how was the project being managed and where was the funding going to come from?

The independent review found the following: firstly, the project had been approved by council but there was a shortfall in funding of about $10 million.

How does council approve this project without the necessary funding in place?

Secondly, the proposed runway was too short for the new aircraft to use it, so the new aircraft would have to carry lighter loads so as not to cause problems at take-off and landing.

How could the proponents in City futures of the new runway not know this?

In view of these circumstances (and many other similar instances) the recent independent review recommended that projects must contain full and transparent information for councillors and the community.

According to the mayor we are now told that there has been very little maintenance or repairs carried out on the existing runway and it has deteriorated to such an extent that it is now a safety issue.

This appears to be another example of the council placing too much emphasis on the Art Gallery and Capital Theatre View Street Precinct at the expense of maintaining important council assets and infrastructure such as the airport.

One wonders whether this airport project was dreamed up to cover the failure by council to maintain the existing airport runway in compliance with regulatory requirements.

Council clearly cannot afford these costs from its own resources. One way of obtaining funds from external sources is to propose the building of a com-

pletely new runway right next to the existing runway.

The inference in the article that the operation of emergency helicopters would be compromised if the new runway was not funded by the federal government is ludicrous. They need a landing pad.

Another feather in the cap of Mr Liacos.

If the new runway is funded, council should adopt an improved preventative maintenance program/system for it.

Bendigo’s fringe lunatics MId-LAST week my teenagers drew my attention to the antiBendigo mosque facebook page, which, as their mother I am proud to report, both offended and amused them by turns.

The vicious irrationality, paranoid intolerance and thinly veiled racism offended; the narrow-minded hypocrisy and ignorance amused.

Both kids promptly notified facebook of the appalling content of this odious page, and I urge everyone else who similarly finds this platform for hate speech nauseating to do likewise.

The Bendigo Weekly is correct when it refers to the instigators of, and contributors to this cowardly cyber-bigotry as “fringe lunatics”, but its claim that they are all from “outside Bendigo” is, unfortunately, a case of wishful thinking.

No matter how much we may wish it was otherwise, there is a seam of religious bigotry running deep through Bendigo, and it’s influence is pervasive.

The number of extremist “Christian” far-right political parties and “independents” crowding our ballot papers during the recent federal election was testament to this, and they will likely be out in force again during the forthcoming state election. every vote is powerful, and careful consideration of every candidate’s social agenda is vital.

(electricity) we, the gullible public, are told that it is all about infrastructure and ongoing increases from the power source to the resellers in turn to us; yet in times of oppressive heat conditions we are still selectively blacked out.

We did not lose power in Strathfieldsaye but many others did across Victoria at great risk to the elderly and infirm.

If, as the power suppliers say, we have to conserve power when the demand exceeds supply many will suffer, will it be because the suppliers have failed to take action to overcome the demand at times like this?

If deaths are attributed to the failure to provide an essential and vital service will the coroner point the finger at the responsible supplier?

The other question that comes to mind is, who is it that makes the decisions to “black out” the affected areas?

The responsible minister and the premier have to look closely at this whole issue to ensure we are prepared for the future which has been neglected by the past.

Comments on the Bendigo Weekly website are, as ever, varied and welcome. This week several topics caused readers to comment.

Abortion clinic back in Bendigo (story from August 2013) It is quite amazing how so many people judge this act.

I for one know how hard it is to abort a baby but due to medical reasons I am not allowed any more babies as it will kill me.

I have four beautiful children and would not like to see them without their mum due to me thinking how murderous an abortion is and going ahead with my pregnancy.

Yes I have been careful but things can happen and besides it is not even a baby yet. You really need not to be so judgemental. Everyone has a choice.

– Rebecca Anti-mosque flyer delivered How can you claim that the flyer “makes a series of racist claims about Islam”, when

Islam is not a race, but a religion.

– Kraig Open for culture I’m pleased to see you are allowing comments in opposition to the mosque onto your website.

We are not all prejudiced “bigots” as is often claimed.

There are genuine reasons to be concerned with the growth of Islam in Western democracies.

The establishment of a mosque is not the main issue – it just tends to focus community interest onto the broader question of Islam in Australia.

The increasing influence Islam has on our politics and governance should be the main concern.

– Ewan Beautiful. I support a mosque in Bendigo. These people deserve to celebrate their religion peacefully in their own place of worship.

– Abigail

Pool Breaks Visitor records A great result. But not a mention in the story of the councillor who was prepared to stand up and go against the might of Bendigo council in order to help save the Golden Square pool, until the multi million dollar new Aquatic Centre is built.

– Colin Carrington Runway a hot topic Blame the hot weather. Never mind all the neglect and lack of maintenance by Bendigo council over the years.

Pity there was not a huge mural, or static art display at airport, that would have soon resulted in funding and proper maintenance.

– Colin Carrington Car spa plans Beetle monument I would rather a giant Kangaroo.

editorial

Success story A few months ago, a notable letter to the editor appeared in the Adelaide Advertiser.

It was commenting on a $36 billion transport plan by the State Government and the negative reaction the idea had received.

The letter-writer said Adelaide was â&#x20AC;&#x153;turning into a Bendigo with a bayâ&#x20AC;?.

The inference was that the negative reaction to an idea that could significantly benefit the city and its resi-

These groups exist, and none of them have dominance dents and promote economic growth was something the author expected from Bendigo, rather than Adelaide.

The Bendigo Weekly has published a number of opinion pieces, including editorials, about the idea of a battle between the â&#x20AC;&#x153;old and newâ&#x20AC;?

Bendigos.

The idea centres around the struggle between two sections of the community and their views.

One is the sustainable, culture and tourism-focussed view, the other is that the city should focus solely on

the facilities for those here now, including roads, footpaths and rubbish.

It is more than a progress or not debate, and both sides are often correct. It is a battle of ideas and ideals that is played out on most local issues.

However, the economic growth data revealed by the Weekly on todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s front page and page 7, shows that Bendigo is changing, and so must its attitudes.

While being as focussed as ever on issues of accountability, especially when it comes to pie-in-the-sky plans, it seems Bendigo, and its population, is moving forward.

The evidence points to a rapid (the fastest in the state), but organic and stable growth.

Is this the result of one side of the Old vs New Bendigo debate getting the upper hand?

Have the coffee drinkers got one over the beer drinkers??

Have the bike riders had success over the bus riders?

Have the Greenies stumped the majority social conservatives of the city?

Have the scarf wearers strangled the jeans wearers?

The answer to all of these questions is â&#x20AC;&#x153;noâ&#x20AC;?.

The reason for Bendigoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic success over the past decade is because all these groups exist, and none of them have dominance.

The variety of opinions, ideas, views, skills, cultures and industries is what has made Bendigo a success.

Long may it continue.

The end of the heatwave AWARD-WINNING photographer Andrew Perryman is responsible for most of the photographs you see in the Bendigo Weekly. His job takes him far and wide, and like most in his craft he is always on the lookout for a good photograph.

At the tail end of last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heatwave, from a vantage point just outside Marong, Andrew managed to capture the passing stormclouds of the change which heralded the welcome cooler weather.

A minor invasion

dear dotty...

Dear Dotty, Young people have moved into the rental property next door and have a nasty habit of playing their music late into the night, rendering us sleepless and cranky.

They seem to play the same discordant, bangbany song over and over again.

While some of us have to go to work in the mornings, they slumber on until mid afternoon when they get up and wander down to the servo for a microwaved pie. We are pulling our hair out.

The peace is shattered by unexpected visitors

W

E are very set in our ways.

The long-suffering Mrs Kendall and I were pottering around on Sunday doing things around the house and yard when a text came in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Are you around this afternoon?â&#x20AC;? it said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will pop in on the way past.â&#x20AC;?

Thankfully the house was in a fair state so no last minute rush clean was needed.

Errol the robot vacuum had been busy, well sort of busy â&#x20AC;&#x201C; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very lazy, and most of the cat fur had been sucked up.

The car arrived bearing our visitors... it was like a train pulling into Southern Cross.

First Kaz and Kevin got out, then three children and Kevinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mum.

I ran and hid in a panic, children. Other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children at that.

The kettle was soon on and the visitors had brought hot-cross buns, so at least the initial shock was calmed.

So many children.

Our poor teapot was strained to provide so much content, the kettle was on

Jean and Don, Golden Square

constantly and Mrs K was withering under the comings and goings of children.

Thankfully Kaz and Mrs K used to work together in the same job, so had lots of technical chat to get on with, along with a healthy dollop of gossip about former colleagues.

The children now discovered we had a couple of cats, and for some reason it was as if they had never seen cats before.

The poor furry creatures were picked up and photographed from every angle and fussed over like they were going out of fashion.

Zip the dog was patted and preened, and the whole house started to be covered in fur again.

In the pursuit of pets, the children roamed and photographed and opened doors and generally behaved like... well, children.

I had a bun and a cup of tea and tried to remain calm chatting about the house.

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how parents manage it. It is the most tiring thing I have seen in a while.

These active mini-humans are so inquisitive and lively, and exhausting.

I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a shift from the norm. Mrs K and I are

plainly not used to the fuss.

As the visitors left we went to the bedroom to see if any cats were hiding, or any children left behind.

At the end of the bed was a horse crop, and various potions were by the bed.

Let me assure you Kaz and Kevin, as you look at the pictures of the cats on the bed your children took, the potions are for Mrs Kâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skin, and the riding crop is for us to shoo out the cats from under the bed.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our story, and we are sticking to it. twitter: @stevekendall1

Dear Jean and Don, I hear what you say and admire the fact that you have hair to pull out.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll hazard a guess and say the song you are hearing is Bangarang by Skrillex.

As for the microwaved pies, washed down with a carton of iced coffee, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not bad at all.

I do however believe in revenge, the thrills of which are not to be underestimated.

And as far as I know, revenge, like swearing, is not fattening.

So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d suggest the follow-

Illustration: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wildeyâ&#x20AC;?

ing: Before you go to work and just as your neigbours have fallen into a deep, choof-induced sleep, open up your windows and yell, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Take that you little buggersâ&#x20AC;?. Then play The Best of the Seekers as loudly as possible. Good luck and best wishes.

Dear Dotty My mum is always nagging me to make my bed which is a total bore. What difference does it make to world peace if I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it.

Jason Hi Jason, why donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you stop all the arguing and just sleep on the floor and that way you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to do a thing, you lazy little bison.

Local food industry insider with Marika McMahon

Weekend wonder W

E Bendigonians know that our town is punching well above its weight in the food stakes but this will be clear to all given the amazing Bendigo events scheduled for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Melbourne Food and Wine Festival.

The Bendigo part of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s longest lunch, under the trees in Rosalind Park, has been a fixture for many years now. The three additional Bendigo events are shaping up to be pretty special.

On the Sunday (March 16) there will be a Mad Hatterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s picnic at the fabulously revamped Botanical gardens.

The picnic is billed as an event focused on food education for children, and will be a way to celebrate what a wonderful child space the gardens now are.

Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to find out more details about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s planned for that day.

The weekend will kick off on the Friday night, March 14, with The Dispensaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very creative entry for the festivals water theme.

Working on the theory that both men use a touch of water in their drink of choice, Tim Baxter has designed a James Bond versus Don Draper dinner.

Our table will definitely be backing the great ad manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team for this one. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t decide whether I am more excited about the cocktails, the food or dressing up like Joan Holloway.

After that exciting night it will be off to the Bendigo Jockey Club for the Golden Mile Race day. This will a

pleasant day of relaxation before the next element of the Food and Wine Festival, Justin McPhailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fermentation dinner.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll leave it to another week to tell you more about the wonderful food that Justin is doing at the beautiful Goldmines Hotel.

You may know Justin as one of the founders of Bendigo Beer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; his Festival dinner will combine his love and amazing knowledge of both food and the brewing process to showcase a dinner of cutting edge food and techniques.

This dinner will be a great way to expand our food horizons. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve only

very tentatively dipped my toe into the world of fermentation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even been game to try kimchi, the Korean fermented vegetable dish that is all the rage at the moment.

Justin is having lots of fun working on the fermentation process for the dishes for the dinner, anticipating what they will be like come Saturday, March 15 and planning what drinks will complement them perfectly.

The rest of us now need to be doing a bit of training to get ready for this big Bendigo weekend. www.melbournefoodandwine. com.au/get-inspired?term=Bendigo

Culinary questions with Jody and Brent Loam of the Willow Room, Heathcote Q. What are some tips for crunchy roast potatoes?

A. For great crisp roast potatoes always use a dry, floury potato like Desiree, Royal Blue or King Edward.

Peel and cut your potatoes into large chunks and bring to the boil in salted water. Turn down to a simmer and cook for a couple of minutes until the potatoes are almost cooked, but still firm and holding their shape. Drain the potatoes well and put onto a tray. Let them cool then leave them uncovered in your fridge for up to 24 hours. The fridge will dry the potatoes out and allow them to get a great crunchy shell when put into a hot oven for

LIFE â&#x20AC;˘ 23

www.bendigoweekly.com.au

roasting. You can heat your oven tray first to help them crisp up and not stick.

Q. How do you make a good Carbonara?

A. I believe a good carbonara has only five ingredients. Pancetta or bacon, but some Italians may use cured pork cheek; eggs, Parmesan cheese, black pepper and of course pasta. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need cream, mushrooms or onions that a lot of people may add. Create your sauce from the eggs and a little of the pasta water. This dish is thought to come from the coal workers in Italy as it was a hearty meal, and

is known as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pasta of the coal minersâ&#x20AC;?. My Italian relatives say you add cracked pepper on top to represent the dust of the coal.

Q. How can you pick good, fresh fish?

A. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at the markets or fish shop and want to know what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting is fresh always look at the fishâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eyes. They should be large, bright and full, not sunken dull and dark. Then use this same formula with the rest of the fish. It should be firm, bright skinned and shiny. You can always ask to have a closer look at the fish and have a good smell. Fresh fish has a very faint but pleasant fresh smell.

ALK along Bendigoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s streets at night and you may pick up an eerie sound. No itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an exotic nocturnal creature nor is it a stray zombie from a film set, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the tap, tap tapping of hundreds of authors working away at their computers.

This week we are promoting the books of three local writers who have chosen the path of community and self-publishing.

Paul Foley, an amateur astronomer, has been publishing articles locally for several years.

His book, Beyond Earth,, is a collection of essays designed to make the elusive stars more accessible.

He also touches on genetics, biology and science history.

Beyond Earth is published by Bendigo Community Publishing, $20 plus postage. Order by email to beyondearthbook@hotmail. com. Beyond Earth is also available from the Discovery Centre.

In the fantasy novel The Gate - A New Breed of Orc, Brett Crandell has men and dwarves fighting side by side against a new breed of orc in the Kingdom of Lertia. Contact him on www.bncrandell.com or by email: brett.des@bigpond. com or by phone on 03 5447 9679.

Finally we have a debut novel by Nicholas Walsh.

In the The Mysterious Coat Tyler Brown works as a staff member at The Duke Of York Hotel in St Kilda and falls in love with the hotelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tabletop dancer, Angelique.

But his life turns crazy when he realises a strange person who wears a mysterious coat is stalking him around St Kilda. Not a bad set up.

Mr Walsh has had much help over the years from the Mansfield Autistic Centre. He now lives independently with some support and studies writing at Bendigo Tafe The Mysterious Coat is published by Sid Harta Publishers and is available from Dymocks.

USICIANS from Bendigo will support nationally famous rock acts at the inaugural Rock in the Vines music festival.

Twenty-seven acts across three stages are scheduled for the Labour Day weekend event on March 9, to be held at Big Hill Vineyard in Bendigo from noon to 10pm.

The line-up includes a mix of both local performers and bigger acts including Jackson Firebird, Davey Lane, King of the North, My Left Boot and local success story Berlin Postmark.

Combining with local bands to present this ‘grass-roots’ day out, the festival aims to develop the

local artistic music culture; providing public exposure and the opportunity to play in a professional environment alongside nationally recognised performers.

“The musical line up is diverse with a wide range of male and female rock acts, acoustic performances, solo performers, duos and groups,” event creator Steve Saxton said.

Mine guides show the way I

N late November last year I introduced George H Crawford, a member of the Welcome Committee for the officers and sailors of the Great White Fleet.

Mr Crawford was the representative of the Mine Owners’ Association, which worked in close collaboration with the Bendigo Mine Managers’ Association, particularly in respect to impending visits by the guests from across the Pacific to the mines.

Following the luncheon at the Town Hall, many of the sailors were keen to take up the offer to visit the mines.

Bendigo’s reputation was near its zenith as far as gold mining was concerned.

It was one of the world’s great goldfields and its fame lay not only in the great depth of the mines but also in gold production. There were more deep mine shafts, in a relatively small area, than to be found in any other place on earth.

Those men who were keen to go to the mines made their way through the Williamson Street side doors of the town hall and awaited the carriages which would take them on their excursion.

A number of Bendigo’s mine managers were on hand to guide the visitors and explain significant aspects of the goldfield to the guests.

John J Ryan, who was the secretary of the Mine Managers’ Association, was also to act as one of the guides to the American sailors.

Mr Ryan was born at Hamilton in the Western District and he

came to Bendigo in 1883.

Initially he became a battery boy, feeding quartz into the back of the battery boxes. Then he worked as a miner for nine years at one of Bendigo’s premier mines, the Garden Gully United, which was situated just off Ashley Street.

Keen to improve himself Mr Ryan began to study and undertake the necessary practical experience to become a mine engine driver and also studied to qualify as a mine manager. In 1897 he received his first managerial appointment at the Princess May. Another appointment as manager followed for Mr Ryan at Crusoe, and soon thereafter he was placed in charge of Lansell’s GVL Mine.

A further more responsible position followed when he succeeded one of Lansell’s much respected managers Zachariah Hollow.

In Mr Hollow’s footsteps he took charge of the Concord Mine at Diamond Hill and a little further north simultaneously worked the South Red White and Blue Mine. Here was a guide who had been directly associated with the late Quartz King.

On April 3, 1911, Mr Ryan reluctantly handed in his resignation as secretary of the Mine Managers’ Association as he was leaving Bendigo to take up a management position for Mount Copeland in NSW. Another Australian born mine manager, this time a local, Joseph Samuel Roberts, was also to become a guide for the visitors.

Mr Roberts was a “Borough

Boy” having been born there in 1858. When he was 16, he began working in the Snobs Hill group of mines off Caldwell’s Road and for eight years at the Central Catherine Mine.

The United Devonshire not far away followed for another eight years, then a further seven years at the Dixon Mine.

In 1900 Mr Roberts made a move to Long Gully and the Hercules and Energetic mines where he

became shift boss for a period of three years.

Having studied for a Mining Managers Certificate, he realised his dream and was put in charge of this long lasting gold mine.

Becoming mine manager was the best 45th birthday gift

heritagematters heritage matters

that Mr Roberts could have received.

Under his managership he helped uncover rich reefs in the much neglected upper areas of the Hercules and Energetic.

Substantial dividends to the shareholders followed, naturally he was held in very high esteem by the investors in that enterprise.

Mr Roberts was of Cornish stock as was his wife Susan Grace nee Jobe, whose father had also been a miner.

The Roberts couple had nine children including one set of twins.

Sadly most of the children did not reach adulthood.

OSEPH Henry Abbott is one of the most influential figures in Bendigo’s history. He came to Bendigo in 1852, attracted by the discovery of gold.

He served as Bendigo’s mayor, JP, local parliamentarian, and became a leading businessman and community leader, establishing many businesses and institutions which survive to this day.

The above book, titled Cromwell and the Protectorate by Sir Daniel Wilson, London 1848, from a local collection, gives a fascinating insight into why this famous Bendigonian was so community minded.

According to the inscription, it was presented to Abbott at a farewell before he left for Australia.

The farewell was held at the Church of the Saviour in Birmingham, where the minister was George Dawson, one of the most famous figures in 19th century social reform, with a keen interest in libraries and education.

Perhaps the faded inscription in this humble book shows how one of the great figures in Bendigo’s story was inspired by social reformers half a world away.

EAN Pollock is very excited about a relatively new product he has been using for the past six months. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Polylast totally changes surface solutions,â&#x20AC;? he says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basically rubber flooring but its level of durability is extraordinary.â&#x20AC;?

Utilising recycled rubber and a patented bonding process, Polylast can be used for a variety of floor surfaces. Sean says that the uses Polylast is put to are extremely versatile.

These include animal flooring in sheds, sale yards and abbatoirs. Residential and commercial floors are also catered for â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even driveways.

The patented solution increases the comfort and safety of residential and commercial floors, decks, patios, ramps and walkways.

With its non-slip, cushioned texture and versatile installation process, Polylast

is sure to solve a multitude of challenges.

Polylast can be applied over cracked, unsightly concrete to create a smooth finish or on ramps or walkways to provide a nonslip surface. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Clients donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out there,â&#x20AC;? Sean says,â&#x20AC;? and when they see how tough it is, and how good it is, they are incredibly impressed.â&#x20AC;?Polylast has even been used for roadway repair uses, ute tray liners and swimming pool surrounds Another use is for PVC fencing, post and rail fencing, picket, horizontal slats and privacy screens.

The product comes in eight different colours which effectively means you never have to paint your fence again. PVC vinyl fencing is practical and long lasting.

For further enquiries contact Sean Pollock on 0478 305 460 or call and see Sean at the upcoming Seymour Field Days at site 290.

Ice-blocks can be helpful to get your pets through the day if you are not home. Give extra water containers just in case they get knocked over. Going on walks or being put on the back of a Ute in such extreme heat can burn the pads on dogs paws so if you can’t stand bare foot then they probably can’t either.

Future brighter with lighting go ahead this week stated that if both projects are successful, council will allocate money from the sale of the land used to build the Bendigo Hospital staff accommodation facility as its contribution.

Councillor Rod Campbell said he is fully behind the application.

“The current facilities are definitely in need of this upgrade and here we’ve got an opportunity to seize with government cooperation and the club’s support,” he said.

This is a wonderful thing and collectively we are getting there. This is a most deserving application and I am 100 per cent behind it.”

Successful applicants for funding under the Country Football and netball Program will be announced in mid-April.

THe north Bendigo Football netball club is in line to get a boost, with Greater Bendigo councillors endorsing a funding application for new lights at the Atkins Street complex this week.

The application seeks $100,000 from the state government toward the $252,000 overall cost of the project, under the Country Football and netball Program.

The upgrade will see the lights at the facility upgraded to training standard on both the football oval and two netball.

The Golden City Soccer Club, also based at the reserve, is already in line for new lights under the community facilities funding program.

TwenTy cricket associations from across the state came together in Bendigo this week for the 2014 Bendigo Bank Country week cricket tournament.

Perfect weather conditions greeted over 200 players across three divisions, in matches played as far north as Rochester.

The Bendigo District Cricket association entered two teams, while the emu Valley Cricket Association enjoyed one of its most successful

campaigns in recent times.

The emus took out two of their first three games, with Matt Dwyer and Alex and Andrew Collins dominating with the bat.

Dwyer made half-centuries in the eVCA’s first three games, while Alex Collins made 98 in the opening clash against Swan Hill and District Cricket Association.

Andrew Collins then made 75 and 58 in the eVCA’s next two matches, his 75 coming in a thrilling fiverun loss to Goulburn Murray Colts.

Alex Collins was the form bowler

going into Thursday’s clash with Portland and District, taking six wickets at an average of 9.83 heading into Thursday’s match.

In division three, white Hills’ Gareth Davies produced one of the more memorable displays of hitting seen at Country week, blasting 115 off just 51 balls in leading the BDCA to victory over Upper Loddon.

Finals will be held today, with the division one showdown to be played at the Queen elizabeth Oval, division two at weeroona Oval and division three at Harry Trott Oval.

Emu Valley Cricket Association – Division 1

Panthers holding the advantage A SUPeRB knock from Marong’s Scott Ross has given the Panthers the upper hand in their clash with Axe Creek after day one of play in round nine of the emu Valley Cricket Association.

Ross, last year’s leading run scorer in the eVCA, blasted 155, and along with nick ede (76) and Richard Murphy (51) led the home side to a formidable 7/342 from its 75 overs.

Travis nolan was the only multiple wicket taker for the Cowboys, who face a mammoth task this Saturday, taking 2/38 from his 12 overs.

At One Tree Hill Oval, a sensational bowling performance has put Spring Gully within reach of the upset of the season, after the Crows skittled west Bendigo for a paltry 136.

Des Gilmore and Liam Pilcher both took four wickets for the hosts, while Shaun Makepeace took the key scalps of Travis

O’Connell (36) and Ken Bell (32).

Spring Gully will resume its innings at 2/10, with Pilcher and Gilmore (five not out) at the crease.

In the battle of the gullies at evolution Oval, Golden Gully are closing in on first innings points against Maiden Gully, going to stumps at 7/103 chasing 122.

Simon Cole played a lone hand for Maiden Gully with 54, while Cameron Moore and Travis eckardt both took four wickets for the Cobras.

Golden Gully still face a challenge to make the required 20 runs for first innings points when play resumes, after losing their last four wickets for only 10 runs on day one.

In the game of the round, Daniel Chamberlain, Shaun Cattanach and Simon Marwood all scored half centuries for emu Creek as it compiled 9/337 in the grand final rematch against Mandurang.

Opener and captain Chamberlain (73) led from the outset and put on 94 with Cattanach (90) for the second wicket, before former Bridgewater clubmates Marwood (66) and Cattanach added 105 in a fourth wicket stand.

Ben Rodda was the best of the Rangas’ bowlers, who had the pressure put on them all day, taking 3/38.

At Club Court, United are in a dominant position against Sedgwick, going to stumps at 1/74 after dismissing the Rams for 181.

Opener Damian Coppock (60) passed 50 for the second consecutive week and put on 91 for the first wicket with Zac Poole (30), but only number seven Greg Burns (29) provided resistance thereafter.

Andrew Gaul took four wickets for the Tigers while Brenton Dillon claimed three.

Play will resume with Andrew Collins (24 not out) and Forbes Klemm (five not out) at the crease.

A tough stretch

LOW POINT: The expressions say it all.

Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

By JOEL PETERSON

REBOUNDING from a home loss is not something the Bendigo Spirit has had to do since November of last year, but Bernie Harrower is determined to ensure his team rebounds from being soundly beaten by Townsville last Saturday.

After getting out to an early lead it was evident the Fire had come to play, with the visitors getting on top of the

game in the third quarter and never relinquishing control.

During a timeout huddle on Saturday, Harrower implemented a zone defence, saying he simply did not know “what else to do”, after his team did not respond earlier in the contest.

“The effort wasn’t there, our defence wasn’t there, and I think that was our glaring issue, that we didn’t play the kind of defence that has got us to this point,” Harrower said.

“I just didn’t get the response from the players that I needed. They were able to show some deficiencies in our game. Now that we’ve had our butts kicked, it might get the girls into gear so they don’t let it happen again.”

Harrower again reiterated the importance of playing well at the right time of the season heading into Saturday’s game, as the Spirit heads into a tough stretch on the schedule.

“This is when you need to be playing your best basketball and improving, not taking backward steps,” Harrower said.

“We’ve got a big challenge over the next few weeks, and it is vitally important we reclaim so momentum going into the finals.”

Bendigo has already ensured it will not slip outside the top-four, and two wins this weekend would mean only one win is required from its final

four games to lock up top spot.

This weekend begins a tough three-week stretch for Bendigo, with a home game against Logan before a return trip to Townsville coming on Friday night and Sunday of this weekend, followed by matches against Sydney, Dandenong and Melbourne over the next three rounds.

Friday night’s match against Logan tips off at the Bendigo Stadium at 7.30pm.
