Hello! I’m Lost Magazine,
lost the guide to where to find it
nice to find you!
OH hello there! It’s so nice to have you reading me! I’m Lost Magazine, so glad you found me. I just thought I’d say hello, I know we’re old friends and all, but it’s great to check in every once in a while and say hi, how are you? Good? Me too. Actually I’m really great thanks for asking. Y’know what? I’ve been around since 2001. Yep! Lost Magazine is 14 years old! (No wonder I’ve got pimples… oh I mean staples…) In case you don’t read the fine print in the front of the mag, Lost Magazine is produced by three people. Stefan Overzier, Danni Petkovic and Kathy Douglas. They pull this wee mag together for you every month. Together the lost kids produce and distribute 80,000 copies a year. Phew! Heaps huh? That’s a lotta peeps reading me cover to cover! Yay!! It’s no mean task, that’s a lot of apostrophe’s to get in the right place (see what I did there?) Oh geez my eyes are bleeding… But Stefan, Danni and Kathy LOVE it. They LOVE creating this lovely little magazine full of great stuff to do, and this beautiful region we all adore. They adore our readers too. (Yes you! x x) The visitors and locals who pop this little mag into their bags, glove boxes and back pockets and take it with them. In fact, one of the first things Stefan, Danni and Kathy would do when they first visited the area, was to pick up a Lost to read… and then they all fell in love with everything the region has to offer, and moved here… and the rest is history. Of course Stefan, Danni and Kathy also love our awesome advertisers, who in turn, love the connection this magazine (the one in your hot little hands right now) gives them to our town, and those travelling through it. Lost Magazine ends up in the hands of every single person who books accommodation through one of the many accommodation places in town, and via information centres, cafés, bars, shops, galleries, and everywhere with a bench really.

Billycart fun

THERE was a time when all a kid needed was a box, four wheels, and a hill to have the most fun any kid could possibly have. The days of the mighty Billycart are fondly and firmly planted in your Pop’s mind as some of the best times of his life… and they are yours to recreate at the Build A Billycart Workshop to be held at The ARC (39 Smith Street Daylesford). Thursday, July 2, instructors from CraftPower will help participants design and build a full sized Billycart. Learn all the tips and tricks so you can build your very own Billycart at home. Learn about steering, (important) pushing (important going back up the hill) and whether or not red paint will make your billycart go faster. (Of course it will.) There are loads of great hills around the region to test out your billycarts (off road only kids. Don’t even think about Central Springs Rd.). The workshop is $10 and limited to kids aged 8+. For more info and bookings call the ARC 5348 1777. LOSTMAGAZINE.COM.AU

Let’s Roll!
Ten Pin Bowling in Daylesford
BASICALLY, the world needs more ten pin bowling. Think about it, ten pin bowling encourages team work, fun and friendship. It’s about rolling along on the straight and narrow, trying to stay out of the gutter, and knocking down obstacles standing in your way. Metaphors for life people!! Ten pin bowling is basically all about life. (OK, so we totally made that up, but let’s roll (ahem) with it huh?) These school holidays The ARC (39 Smith Street, Daylesford) will be transformed into a bowling alley for one big morning of bowling for kids! Friday, July 3, from 10am – 11:30am come and help build the lanes, then the kids will bowl ‘til they drop! Cost is $3. (Daggy shoes not required.) Ten Pin Bowling at The ARC is a part of WinterFest. A fantastic program of school holiday events for kids. For more info and bookings call The ARC: 5348 1777. (Or look out for the full program in the bottom of your kids’ schoolbag.)

nice to meet you mini beasts!

ONE thing that stands out when you visit the country is the absolute silence at night. There’s no constant car noise, no beeps and sirens, no distant trains tooting or trams dinging, and sometimes there’s no noise at all. This time of year silence is rare, as the mini beasts return to play in winter puddles and ponds. Frogs can be heard at any time of day and at night they really like to party. Tuesday, July 7, from 2:30pm, zoologist Prue Simmons will be introducing the kids to the fascinating world of mini beasts and fabulous frogs at the Daylesford Library (Bridport Street). This free session is for kids aged from 4+. Learn about the amazing tiny creatures you can find in the bottom of the garden. Discover what creeps, what crawls, which mini-beasts help out in the garden and learn why frogs have such big eyes! Book your spot to meet the mini beasts, call Daylesford Library 5348 2800.

WINTER school holidays can be tricky… screens tend to beckon when it’s Arctic outside. These holidays try a little less screen and a bit more stage – see a pantomime at Creswick Courthouse Theatre.

Baking Our Blues Away
lost the guide to where to find it
helping others one cake at a time
12
IN 2012, local gal Michelle Symes started a movement that… well, kind of took off! Baking our Blues Away is a wonderful warm-hearted initiative that helps raise awareness of depression and anxiety, on a local level. The idea is that on Wednesday, July 15, you bake something for someone you know who’s having a hard time at the moment, and you give them your baked treat as an opener to a conversation. Bake cupcakes for a neighbour, make a slice for a friend having a tough time, muffins for a colleague who could use a shoulder, or a cake for a family who could use a smile, and share your gift with them over a cuppa and a chat. This simple gesture can really help someone out in a tough time. Connecting with someone who wants to share their story is a really powerful (and completely lovely) thing to do. A burden shared is a burden halved… (and a cake shared is also a cake halved…) so it’s a win-win for all. This year Baking Our Blues Away is partnering with Beyond Blue to help raise money for depression and anxiety awareness. You’re invited to register your involvement in Baking our Blues Away online. Once registered you will receive access to recipes, fun printables, and you’ll be the first to hear all the feel-good stories shared on the day. The power of home baking warms the heart and brings a smile on the best of days, so on the worst of days something baked with love can really make a difference. Baking Our Blues Away is a wonderful community event that anyone can take part in… across the street, or across the world. Over the past three years more than 15,000 people have shared a cuppa and a baked treat with someone who could use a smile. Julie Goodwin, Dannii Minogue, Sarah Wilson and others have shared the Baking our Blues Away message with an audience of 2 million people. Not bad for a small town initiative. (Thanks Michelle!)

Bollywood
comes to Baringhup
BARINGHUP with a population in the 300s, is a loooong way from India (pop. 1.2 billion.) However, the brilliance, exuberance, colour and spirit of Bollywood transcends distance and culture and has somehow found its way south to the wee town of Baringhup (near Maldon) for the Baringhup Ball. Saturday, July 11, Baringhup Goes Bollywood promises to be a night of fun and colour. Tickets are $35, bring your own drinks and nibbles, (it’s time to show off with your home made samosas and pakoras peeps) and dress in your Bollywood best (you know that sari you’ve always wanted to wear but never had the right occasion!? – This is it!!)

This ancient land holds much history, and the importance of keeping the knowledge and stories alive is vital. Learn the about the indigenous heritage and importance of the region.

AUSSIE hip hop is just so good. We love hearing our mad accent rhyming and rolling with the best of them in the world. And we love trying to roll out a few of our own rhymes while we’re in the car (alone). Sure turtle rhymes with myrtle… and hurtle. (Come with us…) Seth Sentry has never tried to rhyme turtle and myrtle and hurtle, because he is one of Australia’s bestest Hip Hop artists and is currently on his most epic Strange New Past Australian and New Zealand tour! Seth is taking in nearly 50 capital cities and regional centres in just three months and will find himself in Castlemaine at the Theatre Royal, (30 Hargraves Street) Wednesday, July 15, from 8pm.

THE Central Highlands region is pretty amazing. It is a haven for creative and artistic folk, its natural beauty is astounding, the natural springs that flow beneath our feet and rich volcanic soils feed the people who live here, and the four seasons are distinct and beautiful. Here you’ll find romantic villages and Instagram worthy country vistas beckoning an escape from the city. And on any given weekend you’ll find loads of people up here from the city buying a lotto ticket and dreaming of their ‘other life in the country’. Some are even lucky enough to make this dream come true. For Lynette and Andres, of Black Cat Truffles, they are living the tree change dream. After searching the district for the perfect plot of land, they realised their dream at 150 Howards Road Wattle Flat (close to Creswick). As it turns out - the Central Highlands region also produces perfect conditions in which to grow truffles, (frosty cold in winter + long warm days in summer + luscious dirt = perfect for oak trees to sink their roots into and = lovely big truffles! - Nice equation there!) And it’s here where Lynette and Andres planted one thousand oaks in which to make their ultimate truffle tree change dream come true! They are sharing a slice of their lovely life on their idyllic truffle farm throughout the winter months at one of many truffle events held throughout the state. Sunday, July 19, they invite you to A Taste Of Truffles. Visit the farm, learn more about this extraordinary luxury delicacy. Speak to the growers, see their truffle dogs in action sniffing out the delectable lumps of brown fungi, (they are totally amazing!) harvest truffles and sample a range of truffle treats. Cost $110 (Includes all the days’ activities and six tastings, as well as tea, coffee and morning tea.) Truffle will also be available to purchase on the day. Ooh la la!

HAPPY New Financial Year! Hooray! Pass the party poppers and Champagne! (We get to celebrate this right?) Um, yep. We don’t know about you, but we’re wondering where the first six months of 2015 went. We’re pretty certain we’ve just done the dishes from last Christmas and the recycling bin is still full of bottles and Christmas wrapping paper… WHERE IS THIS YEAR GOING?! And as for those new year’s resolutions… well… can we just start again? Please? Of course we can start again!! Financial New Years’ Resolutions definitely count. This month, Trentham Neighbourhood Centre wants you to resolve to exercise 300 minutes a week. Last year Australian health guidelines were revised, and the old ‘30 minutes a day’ of recommended exercise, was revised up to 300 minutes of moderate intensity exercise weekly. These guidelines are a world first, and have gained huge international interest. Trentham Neighbourhood Centre is on board with the new guidelines and has launched a six week 300 Minutes Challenge starting Monday, July 20. You are invited to join in. The first 40 people to sign up at the centre will receive a free pedometer to motivate you to move! Registrations are open from Wednesday, July 1. Challenge yourself and your friends to meet the new guidelines and have a bit of fun along the way. The Trentham Neighbourhood Centre has printable exercise logs available online. They will be celebrating the 300 Minutes Challenge at the end of the six weeks with a celebratory lunch Tuesday, September 1. All participants are invited! The best way to get through winter is to MOVE through winter – sign up today! For more info about the guidelines and to register for the 300 minutes challenge call the Trentham Neighbourhood Centre 5424 1354 or go to trenthamnc.org.au

Barry will demonstrate how to host your very own home organ party… He’ll be dressing to impress, and would love it if you would do the same… Dust off the safari suit gents, or appropriate evening gown ladies, and hit the town for the ultimate home organ party experience. Doors open at 6pm, show from 8pm. More information and tickets available from theroyalc.com.au, or call the Theatre Royal 5472 1196. LOSTMAGAZINE.COM.AU
