ROSEBUD KITE FESTIVAL 2016
SUNDAY 13TH MARCH 2016
Meet Puff and Stuff the Spectacular Red Dragons THIS year’s festival will see not only feature sky kites, but for the first time includes a land kiting demo. The team of internationally acclaimed kite flyers from across mainland Australia and New Zealand will display above the heads of the crowd, their spectacular maxi kites which include sea creatures such as dolphins, whales, sting rays and octopus together with the red winged dragons and floating astronauts. These giant kites are so large they take a string of runner kites and a team of people to get them in the air and some pretty strong cabling attached to a car or two to keep them anchored to the ground. Flying high in the sky, against a backdrop of blue they never fail to impress. While on the ground, for the first time at Rosebud, you can enjoy a display of kite buggying. This is where

a kite is used to pull the buggy along a park, beach or dry lake. Whilst the limitations of the Rosebud site will restrict the speed of the display, in an open environment speeds of up to 130km have been recorded. Like the airborne kites, these buggies are purely wind powered and the skill is in catching the wind in the kite to maintain the movement. Undoubtedly there’s something very special about the Rosebud Kite Festival. Offering a free program of quality kite-inspired entertainment, it has become a quirky celebration of Aussie coastal life. With its iconic location on the Rosebud beach, festival goers will look to both the skyline and shoreline for an impressive array of beautiful kites and fun, family activities.
All ages event THIS ‘all ages’ event has grown to include a host of kids workshops, kite craft, carnival rides, food stalls, ‘come and try’ stand up paddle boarding as well as a full program of live entertainment. The Dreaming Space yellow, circus tent will be back with a program of comedy shows and skills workshops throughout the afternoon, plus, and for the brave at heart, Blacksnake Productions with their wildlife and reptile marquee for some ‘touch and feel’ sessions There are plenty of food stalls throughout the site, but bring a rug, or folding chair and be prepared to stay a few hours, as you won’t be able to tear yourself away from all the activity! Free entry. Parking available on Village Green and along Pt Nepean Road.

Sign of respect A STREET off the main entrance to Lloyd Park Reserve in Langwarrin has been named after one of Frankston’s favourite adopted sons Nevil Shute. The novelist penned several classic books including On The Beach, a post-apocalyptic tale about the end of the world subsequently adapted into a movie partly filmed in Frankston. Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley and Nevil Shute Foundation librarian Nancy Anderson were on hand to see Shute’s name get more recognition on the streets of Langwarrin. See story Page 6.

Sky rail dissent rises Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au ELEVATED rail along the Frankston line is shaping up as a political minefield for the Labor state government early in its first term in power. Community groups are marshalling opposition to any suggestion so-called sky rail could be built along the Frankston line, as part of the Andrews government’s commitment to removing level crossings, in the wake of the decision to install
elevated rail along sections of the Cranbourne-Pakenham railway line. More than 150 people packed into a meeting at Edithvale Life Saving Club last Sunday (28 February) organised by the ‘No Sky Rail: Frankston Line’ group to voice community concerns about the prospect of elevated rail in bayside suburbs. Residents who live near the rail line are angered that a nine-metre high elevated rail line from Mordialloc to Frankston could be on the cards since this was never mentioned
the
First term Labor MPs in the marginal seats of Mordialloc, Carrum and Frankston are feeling political heat in the wake of community protests elsewhere over a lack of consultation after the government announced sky rail on the Cranbourne-Pakenham line earlier this month. Mordialloc MP Tim Richardson is understood to have told Premier Daniel Andrews in a Labor Party caucus meeting that sky rail could cost Labor the seat of Mordialloc at the next state election. When contacted by The Times Mr
before the 2014 state election. No Sky Rail: Frankston Line group spokesman Willem Popp said the group is troubled by the state government’s sudden announcement of elevated rail for sections of the Cranbourne-Pakenham line and fears that the Frankston line is next for sky rail. “I don’t think it’ll be as attractive and beautiful as the brochures and publicity,” Mr Popp said. “I think it’ll turn into an eyesore in time and I think it’ll just be a concrete railway bridge.”

Richardson said he won’t comment on private discussions within caucus but he was comfortable making residents’ views known on elevated rail. “I will always represent the interests of my community and I want everyone to have the opportunity to be involved in shaping the level crossings removals to significantly ease congestion in our local area,” Mr Richardson said. Carrum MP Sonya Kilkenny and Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke did not respond to questions about the consultation process. Continued Page 8

Water slide closed in wake of more injuries Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au
Never mind the Pollocks: Artist Kerrie Warren’s The Bonfire artwork will adorn the exterior of the Frankston Arts Centre.
Flaming big art on its way A TOWERING inferno of an artwork by abstract artist Kerrie Warren will make its debut an outer wall at the Frankston Arts Centre this month. The 4 metre by 6 metre piece, entitled ‘The Bonfire’, by the former Frankston resident is reminiscent of the works of Jackson Pollock and will be displayed on four panels outside the arts centre. Council hopes The Bonfire becomes a focal point on Davey St. Mayor Cr James Dooley said it is the first in a series of artworks to be installed in Frankston’s centre and along the foreshore. “Frankston is developing a reputation as one of Melbourne’s key destinations to experience arts and culture. We look forward to announcing the additional sculptural pieces that
we’ll be adding to our public art collection soon,� Cr Dooley said. The Bonfire will cost $10,000 to display and exhibit for three years and will be funded from council’s annual public art budget, set at $120,000 this financial year. The mayor said council welcomes any opportunity to support local artists but ultimately quality, aesthetic appeal, value and appropriateness for a display space take precedence. “Not all of Frankston City’s public art acquisitions are currently on display. There are more pieces we look forward to unveiling this April,� Cr Dooley said. Warren said she was looking forward to working with council to install The Bonfire at the arts centre. “Photographer Darryl Whitaker
has popped in a couple of times to organise and take very high resolution images of ‘The Bonfire’ for the Frankston City Council and I then worked with Simon Griffin to prepare the image for print‌ it looks fabulous!â€? she said on her kerriewarren. com.au website. Council advised the last independent audit of municipal artworks, carried out in July 2011, valued the city’s public arts collection at about $1.7 million. This figure excluded works owned by McClelland Gallery and Southern Way who display artworks along Peninsula Link. Cr Dooley said “the majority of cultural highlights across the cityâ€? can be viewed by the public for free. Neil Walker
A WATER slide at Frankston’s Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre is out of action after two boys were injured while using the slide. PARC CEO Tim Gledhill confirmed the AquaSphere slide will be closed “for the next few weeks� until an investigation into the incident takes place. The two boys were using the AquaSphere water slide last Saturday (27 February), featuring raft rides for two to four people, when the incident occurred. “Both boys received immediate medical attention from our lifeguard staff before being transferred to hospital where one was treated for concussion and the other boy was diagnosed with a fractured elbow,� Mr Gledhill said. “We are working closely with the manufacturer of the slide, Whitewater West, to investigate the cause of the incident and the slide is anticipated to remain closed for the next few weeks during this process.� The centre will remain open and the AquaPlay aquatic playground featuring multi-level landings and slides is still in use. The 79-metre high AquaSphere, billed as “a thrilling family raft ride featuring high-speed twists and drops, fully enclosed spheres and 90 degree corners�, was closed for ten months after two adults suffered
head injuries on the slide in August 2014. Mr Gledhill said “engineering changes� were made by the slide’s manufacturer after the previous incident. “The current incident is unrelated and will be treated according to the suggestions made by the manufacturer following the investigation,� he said. “The safety of our members and guests is our highest priority and we remain committed to ensuring our visitors have safe and enjoyable experience at all times.� The $49.7 million PARC, funded by the federal government, state government and Frankston Council, opened in late 2014 and the AquaSphere ride was hailed as “a key highlight of the centre�. Frankston Council CEO Dennis Hovenden said PARC advised council immediately of the latest incident on the water slide. “It was noted their first concerns were for the two boys and making sure they were attended to,� Mr Hovenden said. “They advised council of the closure of the ride and that an investigation would follow.� “We are interested in how this is being managed. However, it should be noted that this incident comes after a lengthy period of operation without any incident. “Council is being kept informed and will await further advice.�

SOLITAIRE Looking forward: Liberal opposition leader Matthew Guy does not believe the theft of $1.5 million from party coffers affected the 2014 state election result. Picture: Gary Sissons
Election ‘not stolen’ from Libs Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE THEFT of about $1.5 million in Liberal Party funds by former state director Damien Mantach did not alter the outcome of the 2014 state election according to opposition leader Matthew Guy. Mr Mantach pleaded guilty last month to a total of 44 charges related to the false printing of invoices and fraudulent expenses billed to the Liberal Party of Victoria over four-and-a-half years for personal gain. He used the ill-gotten gains to buy a car, shares, a cafe and to
make mortgage repayments on his Ocean Grove home. The party was overcharged for printing and Mr Mantach pocketed the difference. Mr Guy told The Times there had been nothing to indicate that pre-election mail outs had not been posted out to voters in marginal seats such as Frankston, Carrum and Mordialloc won by Labor candidates from Liberal incumbents at the 2014 poll. “I don’t think it would have made a difference to the election result overall,” Mr Guy said when asked about the confirmed theft when he visited Ed-
ithvale train station last month. “But as you can imagine the party, particularly our rank and file and supporters, are furious about it.” The Liberal Party realised money was missing during an audit carried out in August last year. Mr Mantach was the party’s state director, tasked with running the Liberals’ election campaign, from 2011 until he resigned in March last year. Auditors recovered $466,713 from Mr Mantach. Mr Mantach, who has been in jail since November last year, will face court again in May.

FAMED novelist Nevil Shute has been honoured with the naming of a Langwarrin street in his honour. The English aeronautical engineer turned author Nevil Norway, who adopted the penname Nevil Shute, called Australia home in later life. Shute’s 1957 post-apocalyptic book On The Beach, about a group of people in Australia facing the end of life on Earth after a devastating nuclear war in the northern hemisphere, was adapted into a movie. Parts of the 1959 Hollywood production starring Gregory Peck, Ava Gardner, Fred Astaire and Anthony Perkins were filmed in Frankston. Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley joined historians and representatives from Langwarrin community groups to officially name the street, located off the main entrance to Lloyd Park Reserve, last Tuesday (1 March). “Nevil ‘Shute’ Norway lived a life rich enough to have made up four lifetimes,” Cr Dooley said. “A talented aeronautical engineer, sailor, pilot, journalist, writer and later a racing car driver, Nevil emigrated to Australia from London in 1950 after World War II with his wife Frances and two daughters Heather and Shirley. “Here he took on the role of a farmer and ran ‘Devon Park’ a 20 acre property on Robinsons Rd in Langwarrin – that he extended to 100 acres during his time.” The mayor said Shute’s efforts as a writer had left a great legacy for the world.

Several of his 24 published books were adapted into movies including On The Beach, No Highway and A Town Like Alice. For the past three years Langwarrin resident David Dawson pushed for a suitable way to acknowledge Shute’s legacy in the Frankston area. Mr Dawson, originally from Stokeon-Trent in England, said he had long been an admirer of Shute’s life and work. “He was a schoolboy hero of mine. I read his books when I was young and then in 2011 I got in touch with Nancy Anderson at the Nevil Shute Foundation to borrow his books and read them all within a year,” Mr Dawson said. “I thought that a street should be named after him and I’m glad to see it’s all come together.” Nancy Anderson, the Australian
librarian for the Nevil Shute Foundation, said foundation members from all over the world are elated about the street named in Langwarrin in Shute’s honour. “I’ve had emails and so many of them are so very happy about it happening. There are not many incidences in the world where he is commemorated,” Ms Anderson said. Cr Dooley noted Shute “put our city on the map” but he also made significant contributions to the community, “many of which were either made anonymously or without any pomp and splendour including making contributions to support many struggling families in Langwarrin”. A replica blade bearing the street name Shute Drive was presented to the Nevil Shute Foundation at the official street naming ceremony.

Saved from the wreckers: The main homestead at Down’s Estate in Seaford will not be demolished. Picture: Gary Sissons
Historic homestead saved HISTORIC farm buildings at Down’s Estate have been saved after Frankston councillors decided to overrule council officers to stop the demolition of the historical homestead in Seaford. At the latest public council meeting last month councillors unanimously backed the retention of a main farm homestead, formerly occupied by renowned whip and saddlemaker Harry Down, and a large shed on the land. Council officers had previously recommended all buildings on the council-owned site be knocked down. A carport, outbuildings, water tank and windmill frame will be demolished since the structures have been assessed as being unsafe. Down’s Estate Community Working Group chairman Noel Tudball welcomed Frankston Council’s willingness to listen to community
www. m
c c le ll
feedback pushing for the historic buildings to be saved. Councillors agreed to work with the DECWG to establish a steering committee to work on a master plan for the site’s future. “We are stoked at the decision by the councillors to give conditional permission to proceed and want to thank everyone who has participated in and supported this project over the years,” Mr Tudball said. “Now the real work can finally start.” Frankston Council bought the Down’s Estate land in 2007 to ensure the protection of the adjoining RAMSAR-listed Seaford Wetlands and its wildlife. The site has fallen into disrepair and has been targeted by vandals on several occasions. “Council was unanimous that all
of the structures identified as unsafe need to be demolished, it supported working with the community working group, to determine long-term plans for the site,” mayor Cr James Dooley said. “There have been a number of exciting ideas raised about how best to revive and showcase the farmstead. These include transforming Down’s Estate into an eco-park with an onsite cafe and educational historical tours, similar to the Collingwood Children’s Farm.” The DECWG steering committee will present a master plan to council in June. Fencing will be installed at the site to try to stop vandals entering the property. Neil Walker
A LANGWARRIN man was arrested in the early hours of Sunday 28 February while allegedly trying to evade police on a stolen motorbike. Detective Senior Constable Stephanie Groom, of Frankston CIU, will allege the 28 year old was told to pull over in Lyrebird Dr, Carrum Downs, but instead sped off on the bike which had been stolen in a Tyabb robbery on 6 December. Police say they found drugs, knives and a quantity of cash on the man, who was remanded to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court at a later date. He was also charged with having outstanding warrants.
Charges over Ferrari theft, arson A FRANKSTON man was last week charged over the alleged theft of a Ferrari from a Braeside factory in November. It was one of two Ferraris taken from an industrial area, 3.40am, Friday 6 November. The high-price marques were later found burnt out – one in Langwarrin and the other in Frankston. They had a combined value of more than $2 million. Vehicle Crime Squad detectives on Thursday arrested a 34 year old Frankston man, a 33 year old Langwarrin woman, and a 36 year old Skye woman. The two women were later released without charge while the man was charged with multiple offences, including theft and arson. He was refused bail and remanded to appear at the Melbourne Magistrates’

Court Friday. A fourth man, 32, from Frankston, was also arrested on unrelated matters. Sergeant Kris Hamilton, of police media, said the investigation was continuing.
Demands for money A BIKIE on a Harley Davidson is terrorising residents at a Karingal apartment block while making demands for cash, Frankston detectives say. The man, wearing a face mask, helmet, leathers and with his bike’s number plate covered, has three times ridden down the driveway, calling out that a certain resident owes him money. He appears to have a handgun strapped to his thigh. Senior Constable Anthony Smith, of Frankston CIU, said a CCTV camera at the property captures the action. On 18 February a female resident at the property confronted the bikie and told him the man he was looking for no longer lived there, and to go away. The bikie is described as late 30s/ early 40s, 172cm tall, medium build, wearing Army style boots and sunglasses. Anyone with information is urged to call Senior Constable Smith, Frankston CIU, 9784 5555.

Easter line closures on the level BUSES will replace trains on a section of the Frankston line from Friday 25 March until Monday 5 April as part of the Labor state government’s commitment to remove eleven level crossings along the line. Premier Daniel Andrews says an “Easter blitz” to remove three level crossings – at Ormond, McKinnon and Bentleigh – means the works at those three sites will be completed ahead of the original schedule of mid-2017. Buses will shuttle passengers between Mordialloc and Caulfield stations. Ormond and McKinnon Stations will also be closed for up to five months so they can be demolished and completely rebuilt but trains will be able to run In line for protests? Community groups are gathering to voice opposition to any sky rail plan for sections of the Frankston line. Picture: Gary Sissons
Sky rail concerns gather steam “Residents are genuinely fearful that their interests aren’t going to be taken into consideration.” Liberal opposition leader Matthew Guy has seized the opportunity to raise the pressure on Labor over the possibility of elevated rail along the Frankston line, visiting Edithvale train station last month to say sky rail “would be devastating” for the bayside suburbs, amid concerns about increased noise from elevated trains and the amenity of suburbs, especially for residents near the rail line (‘Sky rail ‘must be dropped’’, The News 24/2/16). Kingston councillors debated whether to oppose elevated rail at the year’s first public council meeting last month but opted to write to Premier Dan-
Continued from Page 1 Another community group, the Carrum and Patterson Lakes Forum group, will hand over a petition against sky rail to Ms Kilkenny this month. The online petition at change.org has more than 450 signatures to date. Group spokesman Cameron Howe said the community group speaks to councillors and politicians about local issues as they arise and sky rail has become a concern. “From what I can tell the Level Crossing Removal Authority’s process hasn’t been too transparent so far,” Mr Howe said. “There is great concern within the community that the authority perhaps doesn’t have the most suitable process.
iel Andrews and Transport Minister Jacinta Allan to ask that community feedback be taken into consideration. A majority of Frankston councillors decided it is too soon to engage the state government on the specifics of Frankston line plans to remove level crossings (‘Sky rail ‘a future fight’’, The Times 8/2/16) The Level Crossing Removal Authority is hosting a series of interactive community sessions in March about plans to separate road from rail at eleven level crossings along the Frankston line.

along the Frankston line during these works. “More than 500 staff will work round the clock this Easter, so these dangerous crossings are gone and these new stations are built months ahead of schedule – we’re getting on with it,” Mr Andrews said. Roads Minister Luke Donnellan thanked passengers for their patience “while we get rid of these congested death-traps”. “There will be disruption, but it’s nothing compared to the congestion, delay and distress these crossings cause every day.” See Public Transport Victoria’s site at ptv.vic.gov.au to plan train journeys on any given day.
Choir sings for patron’s 90th Welshmen love to sing, and you don’t have to travel far through the Cambrian hills before encountering a male choir. With their origins in the mining communities of the valleys, the Welsh choirs’ harmonies and power are a glorious sound to behold. But Wales is a long way to go when there’s a world class choir on the peninsula. The Australian Welsh Male Choir (Côr Meibion Cymreig Awstralia) has been in Frankston for more than 40 years, entertaining concert-goers with its harmonies and inspirational music. During that time it has travelled far and wide, locally and overseas, and has represented Australia at iconic venues. The choir’s repertoire consists of pieces sung in the “language of the angels” but most of the material is in English: spirituals, opera choruses,
show tunes and the best of contemporary music, providing plenty of variety and something for everyone. Mornington Peninsula audiences have the chance to hear the choir at a concert for its long-time patron, Baillieu “Bails” Myer, who lives at Elgee Park, Merricks North, who recently celebrated his 90th birthday (or as Bails likes to put it: the 40th anniversary of his 50th birthday). The concert to thank him for his support will be supported by ensemble “Encore,” consisting of four women with their own brand of harmonic magic. The concert will be at 2pm, Sunday 20 March, at Peninsula Community Theatre, 91 Wilsons Rd, Mornington. Tickets from trybooking.com/KFIG or Farrell’s Bookshop, 143 Main St, Mornington. Details: 0425 725 575.
Appeal for witnesses to fatal crash FRANKSTON Highway Patrol is appealing for witnesses following a fatal collision in Seaford last week (‘Motorcyclist dies after collision’, The Times 29/2/16). A car and motorcyclist collided on Seaford Rd near the southbound Frankston Freeway on-ramp, 9.30am, Wednesday 24 February. The rider, 39, of Seaford, died at the scene. Police are appealing for the driver of a silver or brownish Ford sedan to come forward. It is believed the driver stopped beside the motorcycle at the Seaford Rd and Hartnett Dr intersection soon after the crash. Leading Senior Constable Julie-Anne Newman said police would also like to speak to the drivers of a blue four-wheel-drive and silver Holden station wagon, who assisted at the scene. Anyone with information or who saw the collision, particularly the drivers who stopped at the scene, should call Frankston Highway Patrol, 8770 4161, or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at crimestoppersvic. com.au

Councillors face renewed scrutiny NEW laws introduced by the Labor state government to strengthen council governance and crack down on councillors doing the wrong thing are now in force. Under amendments to the Local Government Act passed last year, councils now have greater authority to deal with councillor misconduct internally – including improved procedures to address alleged code of conduct breaches. The changes provide a clear process for dealing with misconduct and empower councils and the Minister for Local Government to take action
against councillors doing the wrong thing. Allegations of misconduct and serious misconduct will be dealt with by independent Councillor Conduct Panels, which will have the power to suspend councillors for up to six months. “The majority of councillors do the right thing, but in the rare cases when one bad apple does the wrong thing it is important that we have quick and robust processes in place to deal with misconduct,” Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins said. In extreme cases of poor behaviour, the Minister can now also recom-
mend a councillor be stood down if the councillor has been accused of serious or gross misconduct and a panel or VCAT hearing is pending, the councillor’s behaviour represents a threat to health and safety, is preventing council from performing its functions, or is inconsistent with the role of councillor or a municipal monitor recommends the Minister stand the councillor down. Councillors still have a right of appeal to VCAT but can no longer bypass Councillor Conduct Panels and have hearings moved to VCAT, before a final decision is made.
Second round cash CLUBS, not-for-profit groups and councils can apply now for a share in $150,000 in round two of the federal government’s Stronger Communities Program. The funding can be used for capital expenditure to assist local community projects. “I encourage locals to apply for grants of between $5,000 and $20,000 from the program,” Dunkley Liberal MP Bruce Billson said. “One of the key criteria is that funding be provided dollar for dollar or in-kind to match the amount sought through the program. “Applications will be assessed by an independent panel which I am chairing. The panel will comprise a cross section of community members from the Dunkley electorate.” See infrastructure.gov.au/scp or call Mr Billson’s electorate office on 03 9781 2333 for further details or a project funding application form. Completed project proposal forms must be received by midday on Monday 14 March.
Pet registration time CAT and dog owners are reminded to renew their pet registration. Renewal notices are posted during March. Contact Frankston Council to register a pet once it is aged three months or fines may apply. State government legislation requires all Victorian councils to keep a register of local pets. The prescribed fee must be paid prior to 10 April. Registration tags are replaced every three years. See frankston.vic.gov.au or call council on 1300 322 322 for further information.
Wells St works near end ahead of fiesta WELLS St footpath and road works will be complete in time for the Ventana Street Fiesta on Saturday 12 March. Remaining new street lights, planting and street furniture will be progressively installed at night time at the earliest opportunity. The current works focus is on finishing the southwest corner of Wells St, between Thompson St and Nepean Highway, and central Wells St. There will be periods of necessary noise-intensive demolition but contractors will minimise the impact by scheduling works early in the morning and evening after peak hours. Saturday 5 March will be a noiseintensive evening and will have an impact on Nepean Highway traffic. The left lane turning into Wells St from Nepean Highway will close early evening, after the peak. On Tuesday 8 March and Wednesday 9 March the south-west section of Wells St will be closed to traffic between approximately 6pm-3am. Footpaths will be widened and new paving will provide more space for kerbside trading and places to shop, eat, relax and socialise. Unique design elements are incorporated into practical features including high quality sculptural seating and feature lighting. Two-way traffic and parking will be restored to the full length of Wells St by Saturday 12 March. Access to businesses will remain open at all times. The new Wells St Market run by Craft Markets Australia will start on Thursday 17 March, 9am-2pm.

Trade mark launched for Peninsula Produce MORNINGTON Peninsula-grown produce has a new identity with the launch of the Mornington Peninsula Produce food provenance brand. The certified trade mark, developed by Mornington Peninsula Shire and its Food Industry Advisory Body, will help consumers confirm the provenance of fresh produce when buying from the farm gate, farmers’ markets and retail outlets. Launching the new initiative last week at The Briars, the mayor Cr Graham Pittock, said local agribusiness was integral to the region’s economy. “Around one third of our land is devoted to agricultural production, and the Mornington Peninsula is the second most valuable agricultural region in Victoria, producing at least 15 per cent of the state’s agricultural wealth from less than 4 per cent of the state’s farmland,” he said. The aim of the trade mark is to strengthen the identity of the Mornington Peninsula as a quality, fresh and innovative food economy. It provides consumers with a guarantee of authentic provenance from the Mornington Peninsula with the legal backing of the Australian Consumer and Competition Commission. “The MPP brand is easily identified by its distinctive black and white logo,” Food Industry Advisory Body chairman Steve Marshall said. “It provides a central focal point for both producers and consumers to rally behind assured provenance.” The Mornington Peninsula Produce logo is on a range of local produce,
PAGE 10 Frankston Times 7 March 2016
including avocados, artichokes, herbs, heirloom vegetables, potatoes, apples, Asian greens, pears, plums, berries and cherries, as well as goats’ milk, lamb, beef, mussels, chicken, eggs, apple cider and apple juice, olive oil, hydroponic vegetables, truffles and garlic. The Mornington Peninsula Produce website, also launched yesterday, provides a searchable directory of all MPP registered producers and their produce, and is also a useful resource to identify new opportunities for producers. Founding members include Coolart Lamb, Hillock Downs, Peninsula Fresh Seafood, Red Hill Cherry Farm, Main Ridge Dairy, Mornington Peninsula Hydroponics, Peninsula Avocados, Hawkes Vegetables, Harts Farms and Peninsula Fresh Organics. The Food Industry Advisory Body is a volunteer community/industry advisory and reference group that works with Mornington Peninsula Shire on the implementation of the 2012 Local Food Strategy.

Time to relax: Joanne and David Alesci have decided to take a break after 14 years running Mornington restaurant, Mediterraneo. Picture: Yanni
Restaurant says thanks for the memories IT’S almost time to say “arrivederci” to popular Mornington restaurant Mediterraneo, which will close next month. Owners Joanne and David Alesci say they are “tired and need a rest” after 14 years’ service at the Queen St site. The pair took over David’s father’s restaurant serving Italian fare after training in city restaurants. They have been attentive dinner hosts Tuesday to Saturday ever since.
“We’re a family restaurant that’s been very well accepted here and we’ve never needed to advertise,” Mrs Alesci said. “We’ve been blessed with loyal customers and staff members and want to say thank you to them.” Mrs Alesci said her family, which includes children John, Jessica and Grace, had no immediate plans: “We want to take a holiday, relax, and spend time with each other. Grace is excited that she’ll have her mum around more.”
The closing day is Saturday 2 April – and Mrs Alesci knows they will be flat out until then. “The sign only went on the window today (Thursday) and we are already almost booked out,” she said. “A lot of people will be coming to say goodbye; there will be so many people that we’ll miss.” The new owners will arrive with a new name and style.

Hotel may be sold THE sale of Sorrento’s landmark Continental Hotel is believed to be edging closer, after being on the market for the past 12 months with an expected price of $15 million. ‘The Conti’, with 23 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms and 30 car spaces, has been owned by the Di Pietro family for 21 years. It was built in 1875. It is believed a consortium of local businessmen is negotiating to take it over subject to being allowed to build units on the rear, councilowned car park. The exact number is unknown, but a three-storey block with 30 apartments has been suggested. The car park could cost $1-$2 million. The 3580 square metre hotel block is being offered through Sothebys International in conjunction with CBRE. If the sale goes ahead, there are also plans to redevelop the four-storey hotel as a stylish, fullservice hotel and restaurant, with pool and day spa, but without public accommodation. Local businessman Julian Gurner would not confirm his role in any prospective purchase,
but hinted that a town planning permit application had been submitted to the shire. He said the project was being advertised this week. He denied the rear car park would be used for apartments. However, the potential loss of that land as car parking is upsetting traders, with the main street – Ocean Beach Rd – often in gridlock during summer. Parking is at a premium with the loss of any spaces resented. Chamber of Commerce vice-president Marc Clavin said parking was the “No. 1 issue in Sorrento�. He said any spaces lost at the east end of the commercial strip would need to be recouped elsewhere. He said traders want the shire to spend money from the sale of the rear car park on new spaces on George St and Morce Av, near the RSL. Mr Clavin said it was critical the shire received the best possible return from the sale of the site so it could maximise future car park spending. Stephen Taylor

IT HAS been two years since fire destroyed the cafe at Heronswood in Dromana, but owners Clive and Penny Blazey and their team, are back in full swing with the first festival of the year this week. The Heronswood Harvest Festival will celebrate the heirloom harvest at the home of the Diggers Club, acknowledged as one of Victoria’s most beautiful gardens and elegant historical homes. The festival will run over two days, 9am-5pm Saturday and Sunday, including free gardening workshops, garden tours and a tomato taste test. “Visitors can enjoy a relaxing lunch on the pool lawn showcasing seasonal produce from our kitchen garden teamed with local wines, handcrafted beer and cider and local coffee too good to resist,” education manager Talie Kenyon said. ”We will be having local produce stalls with locally grown Ridge Estate olives, Springview Farm delicious preserves and cookies, Kate Macindoe nature-inspired handmade jewellery, Sara Dingwall beautiful hand-blown glass seed pendants and jewellery, and Little River terrariums to name a few. We also have local wines and beers.” Clive and Penny Blazey bought Heronswood in 1983, five years after starting the Diggers Club. “Soon they had created the heirloom seeds and introduced them to Australian gardeners in 1991. They started the historic home, and used it as the family home and worked to preserve the history of the build-

They have gifted ownership of the garden company along with family-owned properties Heronswood and St Erth to the garden and environment trust that they established late in 2011. “We established the Diggers Garden and Environment Trust to ensure that the work we’ve done over the past 34 years in preserving historic gardens and houses as

Seabed solution sought for Portsea’s sand depletion Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au CONTRACTORS are about to be appointed to investigate restoring Portsea’s famed front beach to its former, sand-filled glory. Following years of arguing over the causes of the sand loss, the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning in February called for quotes on the methods and cost of replacing sand and preventing its future erosion. Background notes provided by the department acknowledge swell waves from Bass Strait as causing Portsea’s sand loss, but does not mention channel deepening in 2008-09, the biggest and most recent change to the Port Phillip seabed. The Port of Melbourne Corporation denied its two-year $720 million dredging project caused the erosion but two state government-commissioned reports – by Water Technologies and the CSIRO – revealed the removal of sand further out in the bay had changed the shape and power of waves hitting the beach. Reports of abnormally large waves hitting the front beach were first made in late 2008. The department has narrowed the remedies for the beach down to six and expects the successful contractor to assess their effectiveness “over a 50 year planning horizon, having a design life of not less than 20 years and not greater than 50 years”. The six coastal and maritime options to be assessed are: 1. Shaping the seabed with dredging. 2. Building a breakwater seaward of
Portsea pier. 3. Installing groynes or artificial headland on the beach east of the pier. 4. Replacing the existing sandbag seawall with a rock seawall. 5. Restoring or renourishing alone or in combination with 1, 2, 3 and 4 above, for example, beach renourishment and a seawall 6. Removing the sandbag seawall to examine beach dynamics, recovery and/or erosion. The department also specifies which models or computer simulations must
be used by contractor when assessing the six remedial options. The contractor must also predict “potential environmental impacts” of the options on Portsea front beach, in Weeroona Bay and “to the surrounding near shore and down-drift coastline”. The “transparent and justifiable” costs of the project can have a 30 per cent plus or minus margin for error. Most of the beach was washed away in 2010 and the government then spent about $3 million to replace
lost sand and protect the beach with sandbags and rocks. The authorities had repeatedly said the beach was destroyed by natural causes such as storms, higher sea levels and natural erosion. Water Technologies’ report stated channel deepening had created channels that allowed larger and more powerful waves to sweep into the beach. The CSIRO report stated a change in the local wave conditions was the likely cause of the erosion at Portsea
Bag it up: A sandbag seawall has been put in place at Portsea to try to stop further beach erosion. Picture: Yanni
but this could not be measured accurately due to a lack of “long wave records at Portsea beach that pre-date the erosion event and CDP [channel deepening project]”. It is understood the department’s 17-page tender document was sent to four potential contractors as well the Nepean Ratepayers’ Association.

their stories and experiences have always fascinated her. She is working on a new series of World War One linocuts and will speak at the gallery on May 1. Saltwater Country is a touring exhibition of contemporary art from Queensland Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders showcasing the work of 16 of Queensland’s most acclaimed Indigenous artists. Saltwater Country refers to Queensland’s coastline, sea and waterways. Artists, Vernon Ah Kee, will speak at the gallery on April 26 about politics, race, ideology and how these issues impact his work. Australia Will Be There focuses
on historical photographs and personal war stories to piece together the experience of those who lived through WW1. Tales of triumph and hardship in overseas campaigns and work on the home front offer insights. Exhibition visitors are encouraged to share their own WW1 stories via web link: www.shrine.org.au/ Remembrance/Share-YourStory.

This charming and intriguing home is set on about 9000 square metres and is the ultimate tree-change property.

With it’s own driveway, a separate fully self-contained cottage, that was added to the property in 2010, is that extra dimension perfect for extended family, or potentially a bed and breakfast enterprise (STCA). The spacious one-bedroom cottage is well-presented and boasts a cosy kitchen, open fire place to the lounge and
dining area and a bathroom with spa bath. For something more rustic, a Circa 1920’s railway guards van appears in original condition and can be another bedroom, as it has been over the years, or a fantastic studio or home office. All services are connected to the property, there is a detached brick structure near the main courtyard that houses the laundry, and the guards van has an outhouse toilet. A superb array of outbuildings keep the property clear of clutter and there are multiple parking areas.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Snakes spotted in Frankston park Compiled by Melissa Walsh A lady resident of Frankston had a rather exciting time on Sunday last. While proceeding to church, through the park, she was confronted with two snakes. Though somewhat frightened she pluckily went for the reptiles, and succeeded in killing one with her umbrella, which was smashed in the encounter. The other snake managed to escape. The reptiles were about three feet long. *** THE employees of the Richmond Woollen Mills intend holding their annual picnic in the Frankston Park, on Saturday next, 18th March. *** THE committee of the Moorooduc Sports has decided not to hold sports this year owing to the war and so many of the young men of the district having enlisted. They expect to hold it the following year as usual. *** ENTRIES for the Somerville Show close with the secretary (Mr S. S.Gault) today. The show takes place on Wednesday next, when it is expected there will be a very large entry of fruit, and, given fine weather the attendance should be a record one. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason announce in our advertising columns that arrangements have been completed for the holding of monthly stock sales in the Corporation Yards (Tanti), Mornington, on the third Monday in each month. The first sale will be held on the 20th inst.
*** GENERAL regret is expressed in the district at the death of Robert Scott, only son of Mr and Mrs Erwin, old and highly respected residents of Wells Road, which occurred at Tandarra private hospital, East Melbourne, on Saturday last. The deceased had enlisted some months ago but was discharged on account of the illness to which he succumbed. His remains were interred in the Burwood cemetery. *** OUR readers are reminded that the sale of Major C. W. Campbell’s magnificent furnishings of Amesfield Park takes place on the property on Monday next. This is a rare opportunity for persons wishing to furnish to get valuable furniture at a reasonable cost. A complete catalogue consisting of nearly 1000 lots has been published and may be inspected at this office. In addition to the furnishings there is about 200 sheep, 10 horses, sundry cattle and 100 tons of hay to be sold. Motor cars and cabs will meet trains at Frankston on morning of sale and convey intending buyers to and from Amesfield Park for 1s 6d per head for motors and 1s per head for cabs. *** AT the last meeting of the Frankston and Hastings Council, the usual placid proceedings were marred by Cr Turner, who it appears doubted the secretary’s figures with regard to the finances of the Hastings Park, not withstanding the latter having given
the receipts and disbursemnts for several years past. The secretary appealed to the chairman to protect him from such remarks as Cr Turner uttered. His books were auditered every year by competent men and his figures had never been doubted before. The President and other councillors present endorsed what the secretary had said, and the President said that it was very wrong that Cr Turner should endeavor to cast a slur on an officer of the council. Cr Turner said he did not mean to be insulting in his remarks, and only wanted an explanation. Seeing that it had been taken up in the manner it was he would apologise. The apology was accepted and peace was again restored. *** AT a meeting of the Presbyterian Ladies Guild, held at Miss Betts residence on Friday, March 3rd, Mrs Geo. Shepherd was duly elected President. It was decided to hold monthly meetings instead of irregular meetings as before. The Guild was formed some months ago with the idea of raising funds to build a Presbyterian Church, which is much needed in the district, but on account of the war, building with be abandoned for some tine and the Guild will have a chance to work up a good sum of money before building operations commence. With Mrs Shepherd as President, great things are predicted. A concert will be held Easter week.
*** AT the monthly meeting of theSomerville branch of the Red Cross Society, held on Tuesday evening Feb 29th, it was decided to levy 1s on each member to give a donation to the Y.M.C.A. who have appealed to the local branch for support. On applying to the central Red Cross Society for permission to donate to this fund, the branch was informed that in their opinion they could not donate to any fund, and that all money collected for the Red Cross must be used for that purpose only. The secretary, Mrs Geo. Shepherd will be pleased to receive 1s levy from all members as early as possible. *** WATER supply scheme - A scheme is to be prepared for the supplying of water to the Flinders Naval Base and to private residents on the Mornington Peninsula. At the conclusion of the State Cabinet meeting on Tuesday the Premier said “Some years back a proposal was put forward for the supplying of water to various seaside towns on the Mornington Peninsula.” About a year ago, however, the Commonwealth Government found that it would have to provide a large supply of water for the new Flinders naval base on the peninsula, and it was agreed that a combined scheme should be carried out. The supply, it was suggested, should come from the Bunyip River, but before this could be finally decided on further surveys will have to be made. The cost of the scheme will probably
run from £160,000 to £170,000, and it is a consideration precedent that the Federal authorities will be prepared to make satisfactory arrangements for the rising of the money. In anticipation that these arrangements will be made Cabinet on Wednesday approved of recommendation by the Water Commission that it be empowered to make survey so as to ascertain the most effetive source of fees with a view to inviting submission to the Federal and local council. The number of towns include Carrum, Seaford, Frankston Somerville, and Mornington. *** AUSTRALIAN Expeditionary Forces.Recruits wanted. every man physically fit is wanted.Conditions of enlistment. Age—18 to 45 years. Minimum height—5 feet 2 inches. Chest measurement—33 inches. Persons desiring to enlist should apply at the nearest Town Hall, Shire Hall, Drill Hall, or Recruiting Depot, where arrangements will be made for medical examination. *** ALEX Scott and Co. report.—A small yarding of milkers but a fair yarding of springers and fleshy and store cattle to hand. The demand for milkers was slacker,whilst springers and other cattle sold at late rates. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 11 March, 1916
THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
The deconstructed corned beef fritter debacle By Stuart McCullough IT was a ruin; a steaming, smouldering wreck that could not be retrieved. The hot mess in front of me was supposed to be corned beef fritters. At best it was an abject failure. At worst, it would be something that anyone who’d ever strolled past the television during a cooking program might describe as ‘deconstructed’. All the ingredients were present and accounted for; all that was left was for me to pull the whole thing together. It was in this regard that I had failed and failed miserably at that. Despite my adherence to the recipe, the fritters were determined to break apart. Regardless of the effort I took and despite the abundance of caution I exercised, after mere moments in the fry pan they began to disintegrate. As the remnants sizzled in front of my eyes, all I could think was: this is a symbol of everything that has gone wrong. My wife went away for a month. Having finished one job and not being due to start the next one for a few weeks, she decided to make the most of the opportunity and head overseas. Having lived with someone for ten years, to have her suddenly absent was extremely disorienting. Not that the full force of it hit me straight away. It began, as these things do, with a trip to the airport. As far as excursions go into the alternative luminescent reality that is Tullamarine, it was a complete triumph. We arrived in the dead of night but in plenty of time, and lined up for the check-in counter along with tennis players who’d just been beaten at the
Australian Open and were understandably keen to leave the country as quickly as possible. After saying our goodbyes, I drove towards home, getting stuck in a traffic jam on the Bolte Bridge at midnight because that’s when they change the light bulbs on the street lamps. I can’t tell you how many road workers it takes to change a light bulb, but I can say that
it involves a really big cherry picker and causes some pretty serious traffic congestion. In an ideal world, a late night would be followed by a sleep in. But the world is not ideal, especially when it includes a dog that regards not letting her out at 5am as a substantial deprivation of liberty and refuses to be quiet about it. Long before the
sun had shown its face, I was out of bed. Over a period of time, the dog and I have developed something of an understanding: I’ll get up early on weekends if she’ll let me use that time to write. But as I sat at my computer, all was well in my weary world until I thought I heard the sound of paper being torn. Curious, I got up from my chair to investigate. Walking through the kitchen the sound only got louder. It grew louder still as I walked through the hall to the bedroom. There I found our dog, Fozzie, sitting on the bed and tearing the third volume of Clive James’ memoirs, which I was part way through reading, to pieces. Personally, it was a book I’d been enjoying very much, and I had no idea that the dog felt otherwise. I wondered whether this act of wanton destruction might, in fact, be the start of her career as a literary critic. More than once in the weeks that followed, I have wondered whether the mess I was picking up in the backyard might, in fact, be Fozzie’s review of the ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ series. I’d certainly like to think so. It was an inauspicious start. Clearly, the dog and I needed to work a few things out if both of us were to survive the next few weeks – if she could stop eating my books, I would do my best to cease mistaking her dog food pellets for breakfast cereal. Granted, I realised something was wrong after the first seven or eight spoonfuls, but she seemed to take my innocent mistake quite personally. Before Kate, I lived by myself for a long time. And given all those years
of practice, I should really good at it. But a household is a delicate thing, and an absence will inevitably upset the natural balance if not completely disturb the space / time continuum. The dog was clearly put out; taking any chance she got over the next few weeks to burst into the bedroom in search of Kate or to lie in front of the door in the belief that she would, eventually, have no choice but to emerge. Meanwhile, we developed a routine in which we went to the park for a walk every day. Once, getting her to walk up the street was a stop-start proposition. Now we set a great pace. It was at the park that I realised just how friendly our dog is, as she greeted canines and humans with equal enthusiasm. Not that our troubles were at an end. Sensing weakness, the dog took to jumping up on the couch, forcing me to place upturned chairs on the cushions. The end result was a lounge room that looked as if it had a giant porcupine squatting in it. I had help of course – lots of it. Thanks to the generosity of my mother in law and nephews, the dog was well looked after during the day. And yet things felt inordinately busy. As though they might slip off the rails at any give moment. But as I shovelled deconstructed corned beef fritter over my lips, it tasted a lot better than it looks. Perhaps despite the chaos and things not turning out quite how you expect, things can still be all right. Or they’re okay so long as you keep your books out of harm’s way. I’m sure Clive James would agree. www.stuartmccullough.com Frankston Times 7 March 2016

The Director of Mission is an executive position that sits alongside the CEO, Finance and HR and supports a values-based approach to decision making, strategic thinking and service delivery. The Director of Mission ensures the values of the organisation are not just printed words on display, but are inherent in the actions and attitudes of each caregiver in our hospital as they go about their daily duties.

SAFARI MOTEL By Terri Lee Fatouros
With Liam Kealy on Hammond keys rocking it and Dean James producing first-class riffs on lead, the four originals of Nicholas Pearce (sax), Jason Nehill (bass), Neil Richardson (percussion) and Nicole Nehemia (vocals) are paramount in sound. Their panache is making waves at the Heritage 3059 on Sunday, 13th March. Safari Motel are seeped in soul, funk and blues and combined with their big band sound is really rocking it. Over the past two years they have been playing regularly at festivals around the state and have attracted a huge and loyal fan base. Their mix of feel-good, high-energy original funk, groove, blues and soul music has earned them a place in the thriving Melbourne music scene as one of its most sought after live acts. The band performs regularly at many major music festivals including Motor City Music, Echuca Winter Blues, Wangaratta Jazz, Blues Train

Frankston Times 7 March 2016
and Docklands plus a heap of others. Recently, these talented musicians were finalists in the MBAS International Blues Challenge and had their debut album in the Top 30 of the Australian Blues and Roots Airplay Chart. Nehemia’s vocals still hold that intensity of range, and if any change is noticeable after all this time it’s her ability to project her voice; I reckon she could break glass if push came to shove as she can really belt out a song. However, just as easily she can do soft, mellow and sensual lyrics and is perfect as front woman for her band. Safari Motel are pulling no punches; they’ve got the ingredients to go a long way in this industry, they are the real deal in funky soul and a band to watch out for. Catch them up close and personal in Balnarring at the Heritage 3059 this March – they’ll hit the stage at 3pm on Sunday the 13th.

Eagles fail to soar: Somerville went down to Peninsula Old Boys, letting them into the Grand Final. Picture: Andrew Hurst
It’s grand for POB, Magpies PROVINCIAL By IT Gully CRIB Point will play Peninsula Old Boys in the Provincial Grand Final after they won their respective semifinals on the weekend. Crib Point made light work of beating Baxter, winning the game six wickets down on Sunday. Peninsula Old Boys knocked over Somerville, picking up the final wicket at 4.30pm on Sunday afternoon to advance to yet another big dance.
It was an impressive performance from the Old Boys, who were well led by ‘old-timer’ Jonny Forrest, who rescued the Old Boys with 58 on Saturday before taking 2/9 off a five over spell. It was that spell that saw Jack Barbour and Brad Rossborough removed within two balls of one another when both looked comfortable at the crease. However, when they were sent packing, Somerville was in some strife at tea at 5/109. Earlier in the innings, opening quick Adam Jones got the Old Boys
going with quick wickets. The Eagles felt they were in the contest at tea, however, Zac Fillipone removed Justin Allsop in the second over after tea and it was all downhill from there. Somerville were bowled out for 150, chasing POB’s 225. At one stage in their innings, POB was 2/0 and 5/55, however, Will Crowder scored 24, Glenn Prendergast 23, Forrest 58 and Tom LaBrooy 40. In the other semi-final Henry Dolphin scored a half century to
set-up Crib Point’s victory against Baxter. Baxter scored 156 in 77.5 overs on Saturday with Todd Quinn top scoring with 36, Daniel Lanati scoring 32 and Ben Brittain 30. At one stage Baxter was 7/94. Glenn Barclay and Brad Arnold snared three wickets each. On Sunday, Baxter was short on bowlers and it showed with Crib Point easing to victory with plenty of overs to spare and four wickets in hand. Grand Final
Crib Point and POB will face off in this weekend’s grand final at RM Hooper Oval on Graydens Rd. The Magpies hosted POB in round two in the first two day game of the season. The Old Boys batted first and made 8/301 with Dylan O’Malley scoring 77, Matty Hyden 76 and Will Crowder 58. In reply, the Magpies were bowled out in the 56th over for 108. Rob Hearn top scored for the Magpies with 30. Tom Feldgen was the star for the Old Boys with 5/31 off 17 overs.
Panthers to fight with Sharks DISTRICT
By IT Gully PEARCEDALE will be looking for back-to-back flags in this weekend’s District Grand Final after beating Baden Powell on Saturday. The Panthers won the Sub District Grand Final last season and have been superb in 2015/16 in their first season in District. While the Panthers were celebrating, it was heads in hands for Red Hill. In one of the upsets of the season, the 2015/16 dominant side of the competition, Red Hill, were bundled
out of the premiership race by Flinders. The Hillmen may have scored 303 against the Sharks in their home and away match earlier in the season, however, they limped to just 160 on Saturday when they batted first. The Panthers and the Sharks will go head to head this weekend at Mornington’s Alexandra Park. Red Hill skipper Simon Dart top scored for his side on Saturday with 29. The Hillmen were bowled out in the 68th over. Matt Burns was superb for Flinders with 4/36 from 23.2 overs, while Max Royal was equally as impressive with
4/20 from 16 overs. The Hillmen had their chances in the match on Sunday, however Tom Clements and Simon Parrott put on a solid partnership and got their side over the line. Down the road at Pearcedale Reserve, the game was a little tighter, Pearcedale winning by just nine runs. Baden Powell won the toss and batted first on Saturday with Rhys Elmi top scoring with 57, while Ryan Barnett was the only other play to get to double figures with 17. The Braves were bowled out in the 53rd over for 103.
Shane Maggs was the destroyer for the Panthers with 5/36 from 18 overs. Pearcedale was in real strife at stumps after facing the final 27 overs of the day. The Panthers resumed on Sunday at 4/38 and while they were far from convincing, were able to get to 112, which was enough to win the match and advance to the grand final. Baden Powell had another crack and declared at 8/58 before having one last go at the Panthers. Pearcedale were more than happy to bat the overs out. Grand Final The 2015/16 Grand Finalists met in
Round 7 at BA Cairns Reserve, the first match of 2016 and a one-dayer. The Sharks batted first and made 8/144 in 40 overs with Andrew Power top scoring with 41 and Mitch Stansborough scoring 33. Chris Dew took 3/29 for the Panthers. In reply, Pearcedale was bowled out for 98 in the 35th over. Will Kennedy top scored with 21, while Matt Burns claimed 3/16, Dwayne Field 2/30 and Blake HoganKeogh 2/26. Shane Maggs is no doubt the trump card for the Panthers in the grand final.

By IT Gully THE fairytale story of Dromana Cricket Club ended abruptly on Sunday at the hands of Frankston YCW in the MPCA Sub District semi-final. The Hoppers have been the whipping boys of the competition for many seasons, however, with the inclusion of Darren Kerr and Aaron Kaddatz and co, quickly became the glamour team of Sub District in 2015/16. However, on Sunday afternoon, the Hoppers were soundly beaten by the Stonecats by more than 100 runs. The Stonecats will face Rosebud in the Grand Final after the Buds smashed Hastings in the other semi-final. Frankston YCW won the toss and batted first on Saturday, setting Dromana a solid total of 8/233 for victory on Sunday. Levi McLoughlin-Dore saved his best innings of the season for the semi with 62, while Jack Greenwood scored 47, Kip Mulvogue 38 and Lai Leaunoa 35. The Hoppers used eight bowlers in a bid to get wickets. Craig Dunlop was the pick of them with 3/28 from 17 overs. Dromana was 7/91 at tea and was all out for 111. In the other semi-final between Rosebud and Hastings, once again, it was a game that didn’t reach any great heights. Like their home and away match
where Rosebud pulled off a reverse outright, it appeared as though the match could head the same way after 14 wickets were lost on the first day. Rosebud was bowled out for 139 in 61 overs on Saturday after winning the toss. Jason Nagel top scored with 44 and Luke Marshall hit 33. At one stage, Rosebud was 8/62. Luke Hewitt was outstanding for the Blues with 7/43 from 21.4 overs. Hastings didn’t fare much better with the bat, struggling to 3/27 after facing the final 19 overs on Saturday. On Sunday, the Blues were bowled out for just 104. Rosebud was sent back in but was cruising at 1/62 before the game was called-off. Grand Final Sub District Grand Finalists Rosebud and Frankston YCW met in Round 3 way back in October 2015 - it was a one-day clash. The Buds made 5/127 in their 40 overs with Billy Quigley top scoring with 39. Andy Kitson took 2/10 from 10 overs. In reply, the Stonecats fell seven runs short, scoring 9/120 from 40 overs. Jack Greenwood top scored with 53 for YCW while Scott Millar claimed 3/33 for the Buds. There were three run-outs.
