The Return Of An Icon

THE world-class $120 million-dollar restoration of Sorrento’s historic Hotel Continental will soon be complete, with the new precinct set to open its doors as The Continental Sorrento in March 2022.

The Continental is a first-of-its-kind combination of vibrant hospitality venues, luxury accommodation and a state-of-the-art wellness centre and bathhouse, that will bring a touch of Europe to Sorrento, while celebrating the history of Victoria’s most popular seaside town.

The restored icon will welcome the world’s largest luxury hotel brand, InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, with the opening of InterContinental

Sorrento Mornington Peninsula. The precinct will also showcase Aurora Spa & Bathhouse, Lyndall Mitchell’s pioneering urban retreat from St Kilda, totally reinvented for its new location, alongside an impressive selection of six food and beverage venues - from fine dining to casual – and four incredible function spaces.

The food and beverage venues will be operated by chef and restauranteur, Scott Pickett, in partnership with renowned publican, Craig Shearer of Kickon Group. The beverage menu is also sure to impress, with the awardwinning cocktail team, Speakeasy Group, appointed to curate a list of innovative and seasonal drinks.

21 December 2021

Craig Shearer, Founder and Director of Kickon Group, explains “The Continental Sorrento will see the best in Australian hospitality come together to deliver a range of experiences within the one precinct – which is what will set us apart. Whether you’re after a casual beer with your mates, a five-star dining experience, or to sip cocktails and dance until late, you can do all of that and more under The Continental roof.”

“Lots of us have very fond memories of The Conti, so I am excited to see a new generation of memories be made,” Shearer continued.

Architecturally designed by Woods Bagot and spanning 20,000-square-

metres, six levels and five buildings, the reimagined Continental draws inspiration from the local coastline and the building’s rich 146-year history, retaining plenty of its original character and paying tribute to George Coppin, who founded the original venue in 1875. Complementing the awe-inspiring architecture will be a sophisticated and diverse art program, curated around the themes of nostalgia and romanticism.

Robert DiCintio, Development Manager and part-owner of The Continental, says “the revival of this famous Sorrento site brings much excitement to the hospitality and tourism industries, while simultaneously

giving the Mornington Peninsula economy a much-needed boost. We can’t wait to welcome Peninsula locals, visitors from all across Australia and even guests from abroad to what will be a truly world-class destination”, says DiCintio.

The Continental Sorrento is now hiring for its food and beverage venues, with casual roles and career opportunities available to people of all skill levels.

Opposition pledges to fund free TAFE classes Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au MORE free TAFE courses have been promised by Labor if it wins next year’s federal election.

Chisholm TAFE in Frankston will offer more free courses on top of the

free courses already offered by the state government.

Dunkley Labor MP Peta Murphy said that the new free courses would be in industries “with a recognised skills shortage”.

“Labor’s free TAFE will provide opportunities for a solid career path for people of all ages, while also

bolstering Dunkley’s future by delivering a pipeline of skilled workers to meet future demand. Labor will also provide $50 million for a TAFE Technology Fund to create worldleading TAFE training centres and simulators,” she said about the promise from the opposition.

“TAFE graduates are valuable

workers, adding billions to the economy each year, including $85 billion in 2019 alone. At a time when productivity and wages are flatlining, our TAFEs have the potential to grow the economy and sustain the secure well-paid jobs of the future.”

From next month, more than 60 courses will be added to the free

Footy fever EXCITEMENT is growing for the debut of AFLW football at SkyBus Stadium.

St Kilda FC captain Hannah Priest visited the Frankston football ground last week to meet young footballers and survey the Saints’ new temporary home.

The AFLW season begins at SkyBus Stadium on 7 January. St Kilda will take on Richmond under lights.

While redevelopment works are undertaken at St Kilda’s regular home ground in Moorabbin, the club is likely to play out of Frankston. Works at Moorabbin will run until February.

AUTHOR Myke Mollard. Picture: Supplied

A POPULAR children’s book by a Frankston South author has been relaunched just in time for Christmas.

Australian Bush Creatures by Myke Mollard is in print in hardback for the first time in a decade. The author and illustrator says that the book calls on kids to experience and discover nature. “For me kid’s books on wildlife are about engaging kids to go out into the bush and explore. This book is a visual treasure trove of animals designed to be a journey through the Australian bush,” he said.

“I hand draw everything and colour it in the computer to demonstrate that my art is employing the best of both worlds. Mum’s and Dads can relate and this infusion is to engage the kids and in a way create superheroes from the naturalistic portraits of these Australian Bush creatures.”

The book sold more than 80,000 copies between 2008 and 2015. The book is available from book stores or online at woodslane.com.au

Carols a highlight of Christmas celebrations Provider says prepare for power issues CHRISTMAS is just a few days away.

As part of Christmas celebrations in Frankston, carols filled the air and the 100-year-old Norfolk Pine lit up the streets.

The local carols were last weekend at SkyBus Stadium. A crowd of thousands turned out to watch the event on Saturday, which was headlined by Bonnie Anderson. There were also performances from Mick Harrington, Team Dream, PLOS Musical Productions, Mornington Peninsula Welsh Ladies Choir, and the Frankston City Band.

Frankston mayor Nathan Conroy said “what a journey we have all been on over the past 12 months. Since my time on council, I have been so proud of our community spirit and resilience.”

“Like many of you, I am looking forward to Christmas this year and being able to celebrate with my family and friends,” he said. “It is wonderful to be here in front of such a large crowd of happy faces, after what has been a hard year.”

Frankston’s Magical Christmas events run until Christmas Eve. For a full list of Christmas events and a map of outstanding local Christmas lights, visit discoverfrankston.com/ events/frankstons-magical-christmas-2021

A MAJOR electricity provider has warned residents to be prepared for power outages this summer.

Major storms and winds have already caused power outages across Victoria this year. United Energy head of customer experience, Adam Nason, said that people planning to go to the Mornington Peninsula for summer holidays should plan ahead for what they would do in case of a power outage.

“Extreme weather events and bushfires can both cause extended power outages and are more likely to occur in the summer months,” Mr Nason said. “In June and October, severe weather ripped through parts of our network, causing major destruction.

Both events are a reminder that extreme weather can impact your power supply.

“While we have made significant investments in the network, there will always be a place for customers knowing and understanding what to do if the lights go out. Our crews have worked year-round to make sure our network is safe and reliable, and we are ready to respond quickly if an outage does occur.

“We recommend everyone has a plan to have the power they need this summer and understands what to do if the lights go out.”

United Energy says it has spent $129 million this year to protect against power outages.

PLANS for a new eight-storey building at Bayside Shopping Centre have been unveiled.

The approved plans for 12 Balmoral Walk show a large building with around 14,000-square metres of office space across its eight floors. The building will be mixed use, with offices occupying most of the space and the ground floor occupied by a retailer and hospitality businesses.

Vicinity Centres owns the Bayside Shopping Centre. Vicinity chief development officer Carolyn Viney said the new building is “the first step in the transformation of Bayside and forms part of the evolution of Frankston’s business district, offering a new workplace solution boasting the hyper convenience of direct transport links to the greater metropolitan Melbourne area, on-site parking and enjoying

the vibrancy of the Bayside retail and entertainment precinct on its doorstep.”

“The work near home model is gaining momentum as people long for the connection missing while working from home but without the commute time. 12 Balmoral Walk is perfectly located to provide the work near home model for employers and employees looking for the best in work-life balance,” she said.

Construction is expected to begin as soon as a leasing pre-commitment is secured.

MPNG will close for a well deserved break for 2 weeks and resume printing 11 January 2022.

‘Hero’ opens pantry to help others A LANGWARRIN resident who helped keep people fed during lockdown has been hailed as a “pandemic hero”.

While the state was under lockdown, Hiromi Hampton got to thinking about how she could help her fellow Langwarrin residents. She started up a little pantry on Melaleuca Crescent, complete with food and basic items for those who need them.

After beginning with a small pantry outside her home, a rise in donations and demand has seen Ms Hampton open a second, larger pantry.

Ms Hampton said the kindness of her neigh-

bors and friends were the reasons for the pantry’s success. “All my neighbours and friends are very kind and support me in so many ways, otherwise I couldn’t keep going like this. Such wonderful people here and I’m so lucky to have them,” she said.

Dunkley MP Peta Murphy says that Ms Hampton is a “hero” of the pandemic. “Since August, Hiromi’s little pantry has been supporting locals doing it tough. It has also allowed other locals to get involved by donating goods,” she said. “I’m proud to recognise her on behalf of our community.”

‘Pest’ fears over hydrogen exports Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au FEARS are held overt the export of hydrogen from Western Port leading to the import of marine pests.

Kawasaki Heavy Industries has agreed to conduct surveys to monitor Western Port for marine pests already introduced into Port Phillip by ships from Japan.

The hydrogen being transported from western Port to Japan is being produced from brown coal in the Latrobe Valley, a process that depends for success on carbon being stored underground through CCS (carbon capture and storage).

The hydrogen from brown coal project began more than a decade ago and the state and federal governments each gave $50 million towards the $400m trial. This figure does not include extra money being spent by government on CCS research, which is already under way.

Environment groups including Ninety Mile against Carbon Storage are opposed to CCS and say the “socalled ‘blue hydrogen’ projects that rely on unproven CCS technology would entrench the unnecessary use of fossil fuels in energy production”, Since the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain Project (HESC) began, experts, including the CSIRO, have suggested the cost of making hydrogen through renewable electricity powered electrolysis will be competitive if not equal to brown coal by 2025.

“In summary the HECS trial is tak-

ing 160 tonnes of brown coal, burning it, producing three tonnes of hydrogen and 100 tonnes of emissions.

The trial will offset its emissions by buying carbon credits. The technology to capture the emissions and store them in the Bass Strait has not been finalised, proven or been shown to be economically viable,” former Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Simon Brooks said (“Brown coal to hydrogen: responsible or risky” The Times 12/4/21).

Kawasaki agreed to the marine surveys after requests from eight environmental groups, led by Westernport and Peninsula Protection Council (WPPC), an organisation with 50 years of experience in Western Port.

Early detection was the “only hope” to eradicate northern Pacific seastars (Asterias amurensis) and Japanese kelp (Undaria pinnatifida), said the WPPC’s secretary Karri Giles.

“If introduced, these pests could prove devastating to the bay’s diver-

sity, ecology, fish stocks and water quality,” Ms Giles said.

“We don’t want ships from Japan entering Western Port to export hydrogen long-term because of the risk of introducing these serious marine pests, which have already been introduced to Port Phillip.”

Yaringa Boat Harbour and Stony Point jetty have been given the all clear after marine pest surveys were conducted for the WPPC and Save Westernport by Fathom Pacific.

The undersea work was carried out by the consulting and research firm that specialises in marine and freshwater areas through a federal government grant.

The company says it is “committed to delivering state-of-the-art solutions and high-quality outcomes”.

Kawasaki Heavy Industries’ senior staff officer Yuko Fukuma said the first of its marine survey would “assess the risk profile of the Port of Kobe, the Port of Hastings and the [hydrogen carrier ship] Suiso Frontier to determine the marine pest risk from the Suiso Frontier travelling between the two ports”.

The 116 metre, 8000 tonne Suiso Frontier, launched in December 2019 as part of the brown-coal-to-hydrogen demonstration project, is expected to arrive in Western Port before March next year.

The first stage of the marine survey looked at the environmental similarities and differences between the ports, such as water temperatures, seabed types, current and nutrient regimes and existing levels of ecological disturbance.

Using those findings as a baseline, the consultants will next investigate what marine pests already exist in Western Port ahead of the Suiso Frontier’s arrival.

“This survey work will be repeated several months after the vessel has departed in 2022 to assess whether any new marine pests have appeared,” Yuko Fukuma said, adding that the results would be “shared” in the second half of 2022.

Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight) directed this electrifying thriller which examines the rivalry that exists between two illusionists. Rupert Angier (Hugh Jackman, left) is a magician who exists in the shadow of fellow conjurer Alfred Borden (Christian Bale). The shared unease is elevated when Borden pulls off a mindbending trick. Enraged, Angier is led down an obsessive path to try to expose Borden as a fraud by deploying his assistant (Scarlett Johansson) to spy on him.

American police procedurals are reliably slick affairs, and there’s arguably no one better to create one than Dick Wolf, the veteran producer of the Law & Order franchise, as well as this engaging series.

While viewers can expect a crimes to be solved by a bunch of world-weary police investigators, this series stands out from the pack in Australia because of its stars. Featuring American heartthrob Kellan Lutz (Twilight), it also features Aussie Julian McMahon (Nip/ Tuck, above) and Kiwi-Aussie Keisha Castle-Hughes (Whale Rider). In “Unhinged”, Hana (Castle-Hughes) rejoins the team.

There are probably a gazillion Christmasthemed episodes you could tune in to this year. But if you’re after a family-friendly, informative and jam-packed diversion, Better Homes and Gardens is a trusty and loved option. Joh (below) catches up with Bella Taylor Smith and Penny McNamee, who are singing at Carols In The Domain.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

The Mornington Express - An Inferno on Wheels Compiled by Cameron McCullough THOUGH called the Mornington Express, it does not mean, of course, that this aristocrat of the seaside track (says a writer in an exchange) makes an absolutely uninterrupted run to that salubrious terminal, for passengers residing as far as Mordialloc are at liberty to travel thereby while in the slacker season, residents of even Mentone and Cheltenham are privileged to book passages.

Its daily routine is to arrive at Flinders street at about 9.30am, which it does with creditable regularity, and leaving on the home journey with becoming fuss and dignity at 5.9pm.

In the interim, however, it is out of service and rests out in the open with all apertures carefully closed up.

This is immaterial when conditions are normal, but when, as often happens at this time of the year, the vehicles are subjected all day to the penetrating rays of a 90.8 sun, and they are then backed into the platform 10 minutes prior to starting time, the consequent violent evaporative process at once becomes operative and those who are forced to enter this inferno on wheels are soon viewing each other as through a heavy curtain of scalding tears of distress with looks indicating how effectively they could give expression to their feelings were it not for the presence of ladies.

If our respected Mr Clapp would obviate these torture chamber conditions by finding ways and means of cleaning carriages and directing that duty to be done, his kindness will

never be forgotten by an important section of your subscribers, that is, they who travel by the Mornington Express. *** RAY Baxter, who won the all round trophy for his college, leaves this week for Sydney with the Scotch College cricket team. *** TOMORROW, Frankston cricketers journey to Cheltenham.

Players are requested to travel by the 1.40 train. The team comprises: Box, Baxter, Earl, Kemp, Deane, Watkins, Burton, Kennedy, H. McComb, and McCulloch.

On the local ground the following team will engage the Carrum club at 2.30 tomorrow: Lawrey, McComb (3), Hanton, Jolly, Luff, Holt, Petrie, N. Baxter, Aitken; emergencies – Oates, Hanton Jnr. *** ADVERTISERS and others are reminded that, following the usual custom of the provincial Press, there will be no issue of the “Standard” between Xmas Day and the New Year.

Full advantage should be taken of next week’s special issue of the “Standard,” which will include an attractively printed calendar.

Advance orders should be lodged with news agents to save disappointment. *** MEMBERS of the Frankston Fire Brigade turned up in strong numbers at the fire station one night last week, when presentation badges were given to ex Capt. J. Wells, and ex-Foreman F. Addicott.

The badges were awarded for long service, and are only available to men whose membership extends over twelve years.

Capt. D. Petrie did the honors, and delivered a neat speech appropriate to the occasion.

The brigade is rapidly getting on its feet again, and the right men are at the head of affairs to keep up the present enthusiasm.

The members ran a very successful euchre party the other night, when the prize winners were – Ladies: Miss Cook; Gents, Mr Eric Bell. *** THE Frankston show committee meet next Monday night.

The prize schedules are now printed and may be obtained from the secretary, Mr W. M. Hanton. *** SOMERVILLE In connection with the St. Andrew’s Sunday School prize distribution on Monday evening next, it has been decided to say farewell to Rev J. E. Watts, M.A., who is leaving for another parish at the end of the month.

The monthly meeting of the Fruitgrowers’ Association was held on Monday evening last.

In the absence of the president, the vice-president (Mr C. W. Grant) occupied the chair. There were a fair number of members present.

A letter was read from the president (Mr G. R. Warren), stating that owing to uncertain health he felt compelled to resign his position.

He was reluctant to take this step, but in the interests of the association

he thought it wise to do so.

The resignation was accepted with regret, and a letter of thanks ordered to be sent to Mr Warren for his past services.

There was some difficulty in filling the vacancy thus created. Eventually, Mr John Twyford was unanimously elected. *** AT the Frankston Police Court on Monday last the licensee of the Prince of Wales Hotel, Winifred Hallenan, was charged alternatively with having trafficked in the sale of liquor to other than bona fide travellers on Sunday, October 30th, and with having allowed certain persons, other than bona fide travellers on the premises on the same date contrary to the Act. Inspector McCormack prosecuted.

Miss Hallenan, for whom Mr. Luke Murphy appeared, pleaded not guilty.

Constable Nelson, of the Melbourne police, deposed that on Sunday, October 30th, at 8.45pm, in company with Constable Maloney, he observed two men enter the Prince of Wales Hotel.

He entered the hotel and found the licensee serving the men with glasses of beer.

He asked Miss Hallenan were they bona fide travellers, and she replied.

“I don’t know.” She declared she did not know where the men lived.

After a while she said to the men, “You said you were bona fide travellers, didn’t you?” but they did not reply, although she asked three times.

Constable Mahoney, of the Frankston police, supported the

statements made by Constable Nelson, and declared that he did not know either of the men found on the premises.

Mr. Murphy, for the defence, said there was no denying that the liquor was sold, but Miss Hallenan was of the belief that she was not guilty of the offence, because the men claimed to be bona fide travellers.

Frankston, as a pleasure resort, was outside the 20 mile radius, and there was always a large number of visitors from the city on Sundays.

The men told her that they came from Footscray and Williamstown, and had slept there on the Saturday night.

Miss Hallenan denied that Constable Nelson ever asked her the questions he made use of in his evidence.

The owner of the hotel property, Mr. McKinnon, and an employee, were present when the police entered. She did not know either Lynch or Rush, the men concerned.

Archibald McKinnon, owner of the Prince of Wales Hotel, declared that the evidence of the constables was absolutely untrue, and alleged that Rush and Lynch had admitted to Nelson that they had told Miss Hallenan they were bona fide travellers.

After a verbal duel with Mr. Murphy, the magistrate said the charge was a serious one, affecting as it did the licensee’s license, and she would be convicted on the first charge only, the second case being dismissed.

Fined £2, with 4/6 costs. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 16 December 1921

Pines and Balnarring all level, Baxter wins a tight one

By Brodie Cowburn

PENINSULA

Picture: Craig Barrett

MPCA WOMENS

AFTER a thrilling battle at Eric Bell Reserve on Sunday, nothing could separate Pines and Balnarring.

The two sides have both been impressive in the MPCA Women’s league so far.

A win for either would have put them in the mix for the top of the table spot.

Balnarring were sent in to bat first and put a good score on the board. Opener Abby Trezise top scored with 27, with her side going on to make 139 before their 20 overs were up.

Pines were impressive with the bat, but their run rate was what cost them in the end.

Despite a knock of 47 from Jaide Anthony and another good innings from Samantha Ryan (37), Pines could only do enough to snatch a tie. Both sides finished all square with 139 runs.

Things were a little less competitive at Lloyd Park on Sunday. Langwarrin secured top of the table with a good win over Rye. Rye batted first but could only set their opponents a target of 71 to win. Rye opener Stella Appleford did her best, scoring 40 runs.

Langwarrin made quick work of their target. They wrapped up the win with seven overs left to play and six wickets to spare.

Tootgarook had a bye.

PROVINCIAL

A STELLAR innings of 91 not out from Matt Prosser was the highlight of Langwarrin’s win over Old Peninsula on Saturday.

Old Peninsula set their opponents a target of 147 to chase down to win.

Their top scorer was Justin Grant, who scored a half century (51).

Langwarrin lost opener Chris Brittain early on but never looked back from there. Prosser’s awesome innings, complete with four boundaries, got his side over the line.

Langy won by nine wickets.

It was a little less easy for Baxter on Saturday, as they scraped over the line in a low scoring clash with Red Hill.

Red Hill chose to bat first but struggled. They were bowled out for just 96.

William Borthwick did damage with the ball, sending Red Hill’s openers and number three to the sheds and posting final figures of 3/8.

Baxter’s run chase got off to a nightmare start with both openers gone for ducks. They continued to lose wickets, and at 7/58 looked in real danger at letting the game slip from their fingers.

A good late showing from the tail got Baxter over the line, They ended up winning by just two wickets.

In other Provincial action last weekend a half century from Nick Jewell helped Long Island defeat Mt Eliza, and Baden Powell defeated Sorrento by six wickets.

A BRILLIANT unbeaten knock from Damien Lawrence was the difference between Pines and Mornington at Eric Bell Reserve last weekend.

Lawrence opened the batting and was superb. He scored 91 runs, and batted the whole way through the innings.

Pines set Mornington a target of 197 to win.

A few Mornington batters made starts but none could turn them into big scores. At the end of Mornington’s 40 overs they remained 82 runs short of victory.

Seaford Tigers, Heatherhill, and Somerville rounded out the winner’s list in the Peninsula division last weekend. They defeated Moorooduc, Flinders, and Rosebud respectively.

DISTRICT

MAIN Ridge and Carrum did battle in a nail-biter last weekend.

Main Ridge chose to bat first on their home deck. Their innings went well, with most batters making contributions to the score.

After 40 overs Main Ridge ended their innings at 9/170. Carrum had a tough task ahead of them to get the win.

Carrum lost both openers early, but a strong showing from the middle order got them back on track. Ryan Dyer was their best performer with the bat with a

score of 40.

After Ryan’s wicket fell, Carrum still had 50 runs to score with four wickets in hand. They worked hard, but time was against them.

Carrum ended up just a couple of runs short of victory. They finished their innings at 8/169.

Delacombe Park defeated Carrum Downs on Saturday, while Dromana bested Crib Point. Hastings had a great day, smashing Frankston YCW by nearly 100 runs.

SUB DISTRICT

TOOTGAROOK took home the win in a thriller over Mt Martha on Saturday.

Chasing down 108 to win, Tootgarook faced some resistance from the Mt Martha bowlers. A strong opening stand between Travis French and Steven Nelson proved crucial in the end.

Despite a middle order collapse, Tootgarook managed to drag themselves over the line. They hit the winning runs with just one wicket left to spare.

A paltry total of 41 doomed Boneo to defeat against Rye. In other Sub District matchups Tyabb smashed Seaford by 100 runs, Pearcedale defeated Balnarring, and Skye defeated Ballam Park.

“The course goes through aspects of mental health illnesses – what are the causes, what are the symptoms like and what are the treatment options?

“Just as general first aid has an action plan mental health first aid has an action plan.

“We take participants through that action plan and alert them to the main mental health diagnoses and teach them to look out for each other.”

Baxter president Bray Hodgkinson was thrilled with his club’s achievement and hoped that it would raise awareness of mental health issues among other clubs.

“An achievement like this for our small community club is incredible and I want to thank the participants and Bryan from MOAT who made this possible,” he said.

“We’re immensely proud to be the first sports’ club in the world to be accredited and hope to

Bryan Jeffrey from MOAT Mental Health Services conducted the course at Baxter Park that involved 16 participants drawn from the soccer club’s administration, coaching and playing ranks.

“I spoke to MHFA and they confirmed that no other club in the world has this accreditation,” Jeffrey said.

“It entails two days of training but we split the training up into evening chunks to make it easier for the club to organise participants.”

The course draws parallels between general first aid and mental health first aid and prompts participants to establish an action plan.

In State 3 news Frankston Pines clinched the signature of Callum Batey last week.

The 22-year-old has played at left back, central defence and in midfield.

Batey’s football journey started when he was just five years old and joined the junior program at English Premier League club Newcastle United.

Two years later the family moved to Melbourne and he spent almost six years at Brighton before joining Bentleigh Greens as a 13-year-old.

He had a stint at Oakleigh Cannons then switched to Beaumaris making his senior debut as a teenager under head coach Marcus Stergiopoulos.

Batey was first alerted to Pines’ interest through close friend Marinos Panayi who joined the club last season.

The pair were teammates at Beaumaris.

“Marinos told me that they obviously are looking to get promoted and when I went down I really liked the group and the coach so it just seemed like a really good fit for me,” Batey said.

Pines have a couple more targets in their sights but the club isn’t prepared to name them yet.

In State 4 news Chelsea has confirmed details of some pre-season games.

Carlo Melino’s men will face Casey Panthers at Prospect Hill Reserve on Saturday 29 January (1pm and 3pm), Pakenham United at IYU Recreation Reserve on Saturday 5 February (1pm and 3pm), Peninsula Strikers at Centenary Park on Saturday 26 February (1pm and 3pm) and Aspendale Stingrays at Edithvale Recreation Reserve on Thursday 10 March (6.30pm and 8.30pm).

In other news Football Victoria released its preliminary league structures for 2022 last week and there’s been little change for local clubs.

Barton United, based in Cranbourne West, won the race for the spot in State 5 South that Rosebud

Heart thought it had.

Barton runs senior men’s and women’s and junior programs and plays at Barton Recreation Reserve, a $7 million sporting precinct opened in 2019.

Scanning the club names throughout next year’s leagues makes it clear that FV has well and truly consigned the one-time policy of banning foreign names to the dustbin of history.

That policy was implemented and enforced by the old Sir Arthur George-led Australian Soccer Federation and would never have allowed Manningham Juventus or Monash City Villareal to compete under such names.

Meanwhile FV also released its player registration and team entry fees for next year.

Individual player fees for MiniRoos (age 11 and under) are $70, community juniors (under 12 to 18) $110, NPL juniors (under 14 to 18) $200, community senior men $233, community senior women $201 and over 35s (men and women) $135.

Player registration and team entry fees for senior NPL clubs are combined.

Langwarrin is up for $18,200 for its senior NPL2 teams next season.

There’s a sliding scale of team fees for State League clubs and the following entry fees are combined totals for seniors and reserves: For State 1 (Mornington) the fee is $8430, State 2 (Peninsula Strikers and Skye United) $6920, State 3 (Frankston Pines) $5840, State 4 (Baxter, Seaford United, Chelsea and Somerville) $3780 and State 5 (Rosebud, Aspendale and Mount Martha) $3350.

FV has also set a 20 January deadline for clubs to supply fixturing information for next year.

Clubs must contact the federation by this date with information on preferred day of play, home fixture kick-off times and primary home venue.

For years now there’s been a fixture logjam on the peninsula with local clubs playing home games on the same day and at the same time.

Although playing home games on Saturday afternoons has long been the fixture preference of the majority of local clubs it’s hoped that FV’s fixturing may finally be tweaked to alleviate the congestion.

All proceeds go to the Sorrento Surf Life Saving Club

The Sorrento Bay Swim will be returning in 2022, held virtually for the duration of the month of January.

The Swim is in its 18th year, and after having to cancel the event in 2021 due to the pandemic, the Sorrento Surf Life Saving Club is very keen to bring this event to the community again. At the time of making the decision to proceed, the environment was not quite ready for a live event, so the decision was made to go virtual!

This means entrants will complete their 600m, 2,000m, or 4,000m swim in their own time, during January 2022, and they can complete their swim in the open water or in a pool, at a location of their choice.

It’s a great opportunity for families to complete the swim together, and for learner swimmers and swimmers with mobility issues to participate. Having the whole month of January to complete the swim allows entrants to choose a day and time that suits them, and for those unable to complete the full distance in one swim, it can be completed over several days.

The Club provides a valuable community service with a well-patrolled beach environment for locals and visitors to Sorrento back beach.

This event assists the Club with its endeavours to keep our beaches safe and provide the youth of the area with a Surf Awareness program to learn surf safety through their excellent Nippers program. The Swim also assists to fund raise for important safety equipment such as rescue boards and inflatable rescue boats.

The entry fees have been lowered this year, since the event is being held virtually, and because the Club appreciates how tough this year has been for everyone. So entrants are being invited to help the Club raise funds through setting up a fundraising page when they register and inviting friends and family to sponsor their swim.

Entrants can register online now at sorrentobayswim2022.raisely.com and will receive a T-Shirt and Certificate of Participation after completing their swim and there will be prizes given away throughout the event. They can connect their Strava activity tracking to their fundraising page, otherwise it can be entered manually.

Local artist Justine McNamara has designed another incredible graphic for this year’s Swim, which will be featured on the front of the entrant’s T-Shirts. The Club always look forward to seeing what creative ideas Justine comes up with, and this year she has really captured the ‘virtual’ element of the event.

Sorrento Surf Life Saving Club President Jane Wright said ‘We’re really excited to be able to bring back our swim to the community, albeit in a different, but what we hope is an exciting, new format. The virtual swim allows even more people to participate, as entrants can complete the swim in their own time and at their own pace. We’re hoping that the community gets on board and that we can make this part of our ongoing public offering. Our club thrives on helping our community and it’s great to see the support our community gives back to our club.’

The Swim is kindly sponsored by Your Community Bank Rye|Dromana|Rosebud, Bay Print & Design, Fletchers Mornington Peninsula, Functioning Together, and Mornington Peninsula News Group. The support provided by the event sponsors and all the local businesses who provide T-Shirt sponsorship, ensures the Swim can be held each year, and the Club is extremely grateful for their support, especially those who have supported the event since its inception.

Any enquiries can be directed to the Event Manager, Paula Creek event@sorrentoslsc.com.

Searoad Ferries prepares for a bumper summer MORE ferries, a new bus shuttle service and roving artists, musicians and performers are all part of Searoad Ferries summer offering. The Queenscliff Sorrento ferry service is preparing for a bumper summer as passenger and vehicle numbers are expected to be strong as Victorians get out and about, catch up with family and friends and holiday around the state.

A new bus shuttle service, Searoad Shuttle, will operate over summer connecting the ferry terminals to the townships of Sorrento, Pt Nepean, and Portsea on the Mornington Peninsula, and Queenscliff and Pt Lonsdale on the Bellarine. The service will connect with most ferry departures allowing foot passengers to travel further afield.

The shuttle is not restricted to ferry passengers and locals and visitors can jump on at any stop. The fare is $4

each time you travel on the shuttle and payment is by card only. You don’t need to book, but seating is limited so it’s first come, first served. Comfortable, air-conditioned coaches will operate through the peak of summer from December 29, 2021, to January 30, 2022.

Searoad Ferries is planning to make a big, bumper summer even better.

‘Summer of Ferry Fun’ is a series of activities and roving entertainers onboard and around the ferries. Live music, street performers, magicians, pirates, puppetry and more will make the sail across the bay just a whole lot more fun. Activities will be most days in January with something for everyone, young and old.

Three ferries will operate over the peak of summer commencing December 25. The added services will relieve the peak travel times and ensure

passengers and vehicles can get where they are going. Searoad Ferries is ideally placed as both an experience and a short cut across the bay, where passengers can relax and get off the road on their way to their destination.

Searoad Ferries is the car & passenger ferry, sailing between Sorrento on the Mornington Peninsula and Queenscliff on the Bellarine, every hour 7am – 6pm, every day, (extra 7pm service December 26 – 31 January). The ferry crossing is an experience in and of itself with beautiful bay and coastal views, plenty of deck space and fresh sea air.

Charles Davidson is the winner of the 2021 Mornington Peninsula Regional Tourism’s Legend’s Award AS a leading pioneer in geothermal bathing in Australia and prominent influence in the tourism industry, Charles Davidson is the recipient of this year’s Mornington Peninsula Regional Tourism Legend’s Award.

This Award has been introduced to not only recognise the commitment an individual has to the tourism organisation they work in or for, but additionally acknowledge their contribution to and leadership in the tourism industry as a whole.

As Founder, Chairman and Creative Director of Peninsula Hot Springs, one of the region’s most popular year-round attractions, Charles has led an extensive and admirable career.

While on an Asia Pacific fellowship in 1992 in Japan, Charles was inspired to bring the immersive experience of hot springs bathing and decided to bring the experience to his hometown of the Mornington Peninsula.

After eight years of hard work with his brother Richard to make this dream a reality, Peninsula Hot Springs was finally opened to customers in 2005.

Today, this iconic destination has become one of the most successful wellness experiences on both national and global scales, continuing to attract over

500,000 visitors every year.

In 2010, the business was crowned with its first Victorian Tourism Award and has been inducted into the Victorian Tourism Awards Hall of Fame in Health and Wellbeing, Tourist Attraction and Ecotourism categories since.

For the last eight years, Peninsula Hot Springs has been awarded Global Winner and Oceania Winner at the World Luxury Spa Awards, taking home accolades concurrently from 2020-2021.

As a place of relaxation and reconnection, Peninsula Hot Springs continues to showcase the natural beauty of the region, bringing people together in a coastal oasis.

Alongside his dedication to the local region, Charles has made a profound impact across the spa and wellbeing industry, including as current Chairman of the Global Wellness Institute - Hot Springs Initiative, and most recently establishing the Australasian Hot and Mineral Springs Bathing Alliance in recognition of the emerging new businesses.

Previously, he has worked as Chairman of the Victorian Tourism Industry Council, Director of the Australasian Spa and Wellness Association (ASWell) and Director of Mornington

Peninsula Tourism for nearly six years.

Passion and resilience have been two major pillars of Charles’ entrepreneurial success over the years, making him a well-deserving recipient of this year’s Mornington Peninsula Regional Tourism’s Legend’s Award.

“It is with great humility that I received the honour of joining the ranks of the Mornington Peninsula Tourism Legends. In these pandemic times, everyone in our industry sector has had to stand up and work doubly hard to survive, revive and seek to thrive once again. Now more than ever it is how we choose to engage and interact with our community that is paramount to building the kind of society we want to live in,” said Mr Davidson.

“It’s a really well-deserved honour. Since the late 1990’s, Charles has identified an opportunity to broaden tourism on the Mornington Peninsula and he has done so with tremendous success. His passion and commitment to have the Mornington Peninsula recognised as a leading wellness destination is absolutely outstanding,” said Chairman of the Mornington Peninsula Regional Tourism Board, Roger Lancia.

BABBA heading to town “DARE I say it! As good as ABBA” - Molly Meldrum.

What a way to start an editorial on one of the longest running Tribute shows here in Australia. From BABBA’s very beginning’s back on the 2nd of December 1994 there was something very special about this talented group of vocalists and musicians.

During those 28 yrs the band have thrilled audiences throughout South East Asia, New Zealand, the Maldives, the Gallipoli Cruise from Perth to Italy and across Australia. This band has seen a few different incarnations throughout its history with original members, Michael Ingvarson (Benny), James Macdonald (Bjorn) and Paul Edsall (Drums) having been there from the start.

The end of 2021 see’s James Macdonald retiring from the band who now welcome Benjamin Provest (Babba’s new Bjorn) to the current line-up with Susie King (Agnetha) and Jacqueline Hamilton (Frida). It’s been a seamless transition with Ben who’s worked tirelessly to get it right.

One of the biggest highlights for BABBA was their performance at the Hong Kong Jockey Clubs – Swedish Night at the end of 2019 right before covid-19 hit the world. As a part of the festivities Benny Andersson from ABBA was also in attendance as a guest of the Swedish consulate in Hong Kong. After he concluded his duties, Benny came to the Jockey Club where BABBA were performing “Winner Takes it All” at the time. At the conclusion of the song Benny took the stage with the BABBA members and spent time chatting with each person and then stayed to have photos taken with them. Benny was very complimentary of what BABBA were doing and the band were blown away!

You can catch them live in Mornington during the holidays in Jan at Merchant Lane.
