In a concession speech, O’Shannassy candidate Chelsea McNab thanked her supporters and wished Cr Child well for his term in council. “I appreciate that I could come to you when I was having a bit of a challenging time,” she said. “I feel like the campaign, for me, felt successful in a way, because there was a few conversations I wanted to

SIX of the last term’s Yarra Ranges councillors have been re-elected to their posts and three new faces will join the council, with the Victorian Electoral Commission officially calling the race. The winners of the council election were announced on the VEC’s website over the weekend, before VEC returning officer Peter Williams made the official announcement at Lilydale’s council chambers on Monday, 31 October. The results will see three new faces around the council table, with formercouncillor and mayor Tim Heenan unseating Billanook Ward’s Maria McCarthy with a 742 vote margin after preferences. Former-councillor Richard Higgins will be the new councillor for Chirnside Ward, beating incumbent Andrew Witlox by 1002 votes, while Tony Stevenson has been declared the winner of Chandler Ward with a lead of more than 3500 votes over the next candidate. Meanwhile, Streeton Ward councillor Noel Cliff, Walling Ward councillor Len Cox, O’Shannassy Ward councillor Jim Child, Ryrie Ward councillor Fiona McAllister, Lyster Ward councillor Mike Clarke and Melba Ward’s Terry Avery, were all re-elected. Cr McAllister, who won her ward with 83.45 per cent of the vote, achieved an absolute majority of the vote by Thursday 27 October, two days before the count was finished. She said she was “very humbled” by the result. “I suppose, for me, it’s a confirmation that the things that we’ve been working, or I’ve been working on, at council are the right things, and certainly we’ll keep checking in with the community and making sure that I’m taking the right stand on the right issues,” she said. Cr McAllister said this year’s election was “very different” to the 2012 elections, where she was one of 12

Acres of garden are open By Jesse Graham THREE acres of pristine garden will be available for exploring on Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 November, with an Open Gardens weekend coming to the valley. Ridgefield, at 58 Boundary Road, Coldstream, will be opening its gates over the weekend as part of Open Gardens Victoria’s season. Owners Warwick and Paulette Bisley will be presenting their threeacre garden that boasts views of the valley, box hedges, a fountain and some 450 roses in bloom. “It’s a big garden, it costs a lot to run, and when my wife and I are in there, all we’re doing is working,” Mr Bisley said. “It’s kind of crazy not to share it with people.” Mr Bisley said they had opened the garden every year since 2003, except for 2009, putting money raised from entry fees towards the Gruyere CFA. The CFA, he said, would also be running a sausage sizzle at the gardens and providing Devonshire tea to gather funds. Some of the key features of the garden, Mr Bisley said, were the views out into Coldstream, Healesville and the rest of the valley, with each side of the garden offering its own scenery. “In all directions are views, and most gardens don’t have that

because with views there comes wind,” he said. “The garden is very wind-exposed, which makes it difficult - but on a day with no wind, it’s quite glorious.” Mr Bisley said he wasn’t sure how many people to expect coming through the garden, but that some long weekends had seen as many as 2000 visitors. “One year we did it on the Anzac Day weekend and we were deluged with people,” he said. “Whether we’re going to get a really good turnout or a lousy turnout, we’ll have to wait and see.” The garden was designed by Robert Boyle in 1997, when Mr and Mrs Bisley bought the property, and there are walks, a vineyard, croquet lawn, walled green, an orchard and a vegetable garden on-site. Entry to Ridgefield is $10, and the gates will be open from 10am4.30pm on Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 November. Children under 18 receive free entry. Other gardens, such as Halcyon at 466 Maroondah Highway, Healesville, will be open on the same weekend. Halcyon, opposite the entrance to Maroondah Reservoir Park, will raise money for the Healesville CFA through its proceeds.For more information, visit www.opengardensvictoria.org.au.

Properties ‘destroyed’ in storm Delivering safer YARRA Ranges Shire has confirmed 28 properties as being ‘destroyed’ as a result of the 9 October windstorm event. In total, 132 properties were reported to council as being damaged and now all have been inspected, with details showing most of the destroyed properties were in the Selby area. In what has been described as one of the worst natural disaster events to hit the region since Black Saturday, the shire is still busy both managing and developing a response. Council said they’re still receiving an average of 25 calls per day, most relating to trees or social and financial support. Yarra Ranges Shire Chief Executive Officer, Glenn Patterson, said there was still a big job ahead. “We are mindful of the size of the task at hand, and the need to clear fallen trees and tree debris quickly to ensure we are

adequately prepared for the upcoming fire danger period,” Mr Patterson said. “We are also aware of a number of residents who have already begun clean-up activities on their own properties, which is great to see.” Mr Patterson said the shire’s planning team was preparing to fast-track a large volume of permit applications, as a result of residents looking to rebuild. Meanwhile, compiled statistics are beginning to show just how severe the impact on the region has been. The majority of council’s 58 fire access roads have suffered significant damage from fallen trees, blocking access and increasing fuel loads. The Fire Management Team is working around the clock to make the roads accessible and reduce fuel loads in the lead-up to the fire season. At this stage, the shire anticipates the trees clean-up will

extend through until Christmas. Strong winds and high rainfall throughout the month of October have also had a significant impact on council’s roads, drains and pits Council has received 126 drainage requests, dating back to the start of October, just before the wind event. In the wake of the devastation, Minister for Justice Michael Keenan and Victorian Minister for Emergency Services, James Merlino, on Sunday, 16 October, announced the activation of additional disaster assistance for Victorians affected by storms in the Yarra Ranges Council area. Anyone who has been affected by storms and is suffering personal hardship and distress should call the Victorian Emergency Recovery Information Line on 1300 799 232. Information about assistance can also be found on the Vic Emergency website at www.

emergency.vic.gov.au/relief or on the Australian Government’s Disaster Assist website at www. disasterasist.gov.au. Also, a series of ‘frequently asked questions’ has been developed and is available on Yarra Ranges Council’s website www. yarraranges.vic.gov.au, as well as in print through the Shire’s Community Links.

station promise WORKS have started on a second entrance at Lilydale train station, which aims to make it safer and more convenient for locals to catch the train. The new station entrance at the northern end of the platform will include an accessible ramp, as well as a pedestrian crossing, featuring automatic gates and audible alarms. The existing second entrance was closed in 2013 due to safety concerns, forcing passengers to walk hundreds of metres through the station car park to access the main entrance. The new entrance will be fully accessible and new myki readers will make the transition between the car park and platform as seamless as possible. Member for Eastern Met-

ropolitan Region Shaun Leane visited Lilydale train station on Monday, 24 October, to announce the new entrance will be completed by the end of this year. He said the Victorian Government was delivering on an important election commitment. “We promised it, and now we’re getting it done - the second entrance at Lilydale station will be reopened by the end of the year,” he said. “People will no longer have to walk hundreds of metres through the car park to catch the train. This new entrance will be safer and more accessible for all passengers.” Train services will continue to operate as normal during construction, with a temporary reduction in car spaces to get on with building the new entrance.

Shed’s deep breath THE Badger Creek Men’s Shed will have a ventilation system installed in its workshop, following a donation of $500 from the Healesville Grand Hotel. Hotel owners Michelle Schiavello and Richard Fretwell presented Men’s Shed president John Layton and vice-president Mario Herodotus with the $500 cheque on Friday 21 October.

Ms Schiavello said the donation came from the hotel’s Friday night raffles, which are held during happy hour from 4pm to 6pm. “We put on a raffle with the locals and whoever’s in here, and someone will come up with a suggestion of a good cause,” she said. “Someone wins a meat tray, second and third prize wins a bottle of wine and whatever’s left goes into the donation box - whenever we hit

$500, that’s when it goes off.” Ms Shiavello said Tobi Hamer, of Yarra Valley Quality Meat Supply, suggested the Men’s Shed as the donation recipient. Mr Herodotus said the money would go a long way for the shed, and would go towards installing a dust extraction system for the shed’s workshop. “We’re getting to the point where ... we need the money, and so we ap-

preciate it so much,” he said. “We’ve got a lot of things we can do, and it’s not just for us ... we’re working with the kids at Badger Creek (Primary School), and trying to do things in the community. “We definitely appreciate it.” The next donation recipient will be the Healesville CFA. For more information, visit the hotel at 270 Maroondah Highway, Healesville, or call 5962 4003.

Mr Robinson paid tribute to Ms Laumen’s work with HICCI, offering assistance to vulnerable members of the community. “She has made a difference to many people’s lives, be it someone to talk to, listen, assist and or refer

them onto someone who can provide the service they need,” he said. “People walk into her office with the weight of the world on their shoulders and leave with hope and a smile on their face. “She is extremely dedicated and hardworking, always going the extra yard without hesitation and never expecting anything in return.” Mr Ryan, meanwhile, has worked to collect donations for the Salvation Army on Fridays and Saturdays outside Coles or the Heales-

Mr Robinson said Mr Ryan was out collecting donations “rain, hail or shine”, though he had reduced his work to Saturday mornings after suffering a heart attack earlier in the year. “He is truly a quiet achiever and a very worthy recipient of this outstanding achievement award.” Rotary club president Robert Chippindall then presented the recipients with their award.

Up in smoke DETECTIVES are searching for thieves who made off with $2000 worth of cigarettes from Lilydale last week. Yarra Ranges Crime Investigation Unit (CIU) Detective Sergeant Mark Smithwick said that unknown persons forced open the front door of Coles Liquorland in Anderson Street, Lilydale, about 3.30am on 26 October. The thieves then broke open a cigarette cabinet, stealing $2000 worth of cigarettes. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Second man arrested POLICE have arrested a second man after an aggravated burglary and assault in July, which left two men seriously injured in hospital.

A TRUCK driver was lucky to escape without injury after his fully-laden, 30-tonne truck rolled off the Black Spur on Saturday 22 October, closing the road for about five hours. Yarra Glen police Sergeant Richard Coulson said the truck ran off the edge of the Maroondah Highway on the Black Spur near Healesville in the early hours of Saturday morning. Sgt Coulson said some wheels of the truck left the road in wet weather and the truck then rolled down an embankment. “There was no speed or anything - it’s literally just plopped over,” he said. Though the driver escaped without injury, the truck is believed to have been written off in the crash. The Maroondah Highway was closed in both directions for about five hours as police brought in several heavy haulage cranes to rescue the vehicle. The problem with retrieving the truck, Sgt Coulson said, was that it was fully-laden and weighed about 30 tonnes at the time. He said one of the cranes that pulled the truck out weighed 55 tonnes, and that calculations had to be made to figure out how to rescue the heavy vehicle. “Once you go below the horizontal, you’ve got to do your maths on that,” Sgt Coulson said. Sgt Coulson said the driver was not speeding at the time of the crash, but that the road had “notorious” areas for crashes.

Clean-up after the storm RECENTLY our region was impacted by a severe weather event causing damage to homes and businesses as well as leaving thousands of people without electricity supply for days. I would like to thank the emergency services volunteers who spent day and night clearing fallen trees in attempt to get our region back up and running as soon as possible. Yarra Ranges Council staff have also worked very hard to assess storm damage and provide assistance to affected residents. For those severely impacted by storms, emergency relief payments and re-establishment grants are available for eligible people from the state and federal governments. Payments are aimed to assist with clean-up, emergency accommodation,

For those who have experienced power outages, AusNet Services’ Guaranteed Service Level Standards and Payments ensures customers who have experienced 20 hours or more of unplanned and sustained interruptions will have a refund automatically deducted from their electricity bill. Please be aware that payments are calculated each calendar year, so you

should expect to see a refund incorporated into your electricity bill in early 2017. Unfortunately, power outages have become an all too familiar occurrence in the Yarra Valley over the past few months. I have been contacted by many locals in the region who are frustrated with the almost constant stream of planned and unplanned power outages. These outages have been the result of the State Government’s roll out of Rapid Earth Fault Current Limiter (REFCL) technology to make powerlines safer in bushfire risk areas. This life saving technology is vital, but many residents in our region have been unfairly put out by planned outages going over schedule, or additional unplanned outages taking place as part

Seeing red WARBURTON Senior Citizens has a

of the program. As a result, local businesses have lost thousands of dollars in revenue. Some have been forced to throw out perfectly good produce because of a lack of refrigeration or have been unable to process electronic and credit card payments. Some businesses have had to temporarily close while being required to pay their employees, whereas casual employees have missed out on the opportunity to work all together. In some instances, local health care facilities have been unable to store and dispense vaccines because of an unreliable power supply. That’s why I have questioned the Minister for Energy in the Parliament and have followed up with a letter detailing the issues that locals are facing.

The Minister responded to me saying that power outages caused by the REFCL rollout were expected to finish on 17 October. However, due to the thrashing our electricity network received in the storms, I fear that these outages will not finish from some time. With the Yarra Valley set for another dangerous fire season, this level of service is just not good enough and local residents deserve better. If you have been affected adversely by power outages, please call my office in Yarra Glen on 9730 1066. Your stories will help me convince the government they need to fix the problems before it is too late.

Proposed Changes to Timber Release Plan Community Feedback Period: 2nd November – 25th November 2016 VicForests is seeking comment from local community members on its proposed changes to the Timber Release Plan. The proposed changes to the TRP focus on options for timber harvesting which are outside the areas identified as most important for conservation as part of the current Forest Industry Taskforce process. There continues to be an increase in the number of Leadbeater’s Possum colonies found in State forest, with each new colony found protected by a 12 hectare reserve area. Amending the TRP will provide the timber industry with further flexibility to work around the new reserves being created for the protection of Leadbeater's Possum. The overall level of timber harvesting will not change but the locations listed for harvesting operations over the next five years may change. The Timber Release Plan lists VicForests’ planned harvesting activity for a period of up to five years and is updated annually. Community feedback is sought on specific operational aspects of our proposed harvesting plans including any concerns regarding: • • • •

Lilydale and District Historical Society's Sue Thompson, Joy Gothe, Jeanette Dodson and Picture: ROB CAREW Philip Burton. 160804

Their history assured By Jesse Graham THE future of the Lilydale and District Historical Society is secure for another five years, after long negotiations with the council ended with a renewal of their lease. The Mail reported in February that the society had been in discussion with council about renewing its five-year lease on the Old Lilydale Court House, which is shared with the U3A. However, the group had raised concerns about the costs of utilities, such as heating, that was causing financial difficulties for the society - the 140-year-old building’s 30-foot high cathedral ceilings meant heating became an expensive ordeal. In the society’s September newsletter, they announced that the lease had been renewed, and

the group’s issued addressed. President Sue Thompson told the Mail that the council had installed a ceiling fan, blinds, improved locks, an improved heating system on a timer and had repaired an outside storage shed. She said the heating bills were “extraordinary” with the old heating system, but that she was satisfied with the improvements and the resolution with council. Ms Thompson paid tribute to council officers Bob Mason and Michelle Danks for their work in negotiating the new lease and utilities. “It took a lot of hard work and negotiation, and I think the real issue about all of this was there was an absolute lack of communication,” she said. “The council staff have been

fantastic - we put all the cards on the table, and what everyone wanted and what everyone could do ... and we’ve come to a great agreement.” Because the society shares the court house with the U3A equally, the two groups agreed to split the bills and costs 50/50. She said the groups would also sit down with council in a year and assess the agreements, and see what issues may have arisen. “I think all of us have learned from this exercise, council as well as ourselves, in that you keep in touch, you keep talking and you have reviews,” Ms Thompson said. “It was just one of those situations where approaching it in a different way would have been a good way to go for us all, but that’s all water under the bridge.”

IT’S two in a row for Yarra Valley Estate who won the Small and Medium Enterprises category at this year’s Premiers Sustainability Awards. Yarra Valley Estate won the small and medium enterprises category for the programs they have in place that drive sustainability across all their operations. It’s the first time that the award has been won in two consecutive years by the same company. Focused on reducing their carbon footprint, Yarra Valley Estate has utilised a range of carbon reducing techniques, and is aiming to be fully environmentally restorative within 12-24 months. Since winning last year, Yarra Valley Estate has implemented a garden which allows them to grow and use their own produce. Aptly named the edible forest garden, everything on the one acre plot of land is edible and is used in the kitchen. Katrina Reynolds, general manager at Yarra Valley Estate says that the increased size of the edible forest garden lets them grow a variety of different fruits and vegetables. “There are different little sections; there’s a tea section, berry, water section and Australian bush native section,” Katrina said. “All these different sections have their little stories, so you can wander around the paths which weave through the gar-

They are well on their way to reaching this target and in the past year have reduced wastage from a 3 cubic metre bin emptied once a week to a 1.5 cubic metre bin that is emptied once every month.

“It’s a massive improvement, and we do a lot of waste separation, our guests that we have also know how to do waste separation, so everything either goes into composting for the chickens or into the worm farm,” Yarra Valley Estate are close to reaching their goals of being fully environmentally restorative in the next 12-24 months, but Katrina jokes that there is still work to be done and that owner Louise Ward has plenty of projects planned for the future. “We’d like to develop some wetlands for birds, frogs, and fish so we can create a healthy environment and ecosystem too.” “There’s also the idea of electric car charging station so that likeminded companies and people can visit and charge their cars while they’re here, there’s always a plan for something new,” Katrina said.

Letters Let there be light NOT all changes brought on by the break-up of the SEC are consumer friendly. In fact, reading my electricity bill by candlelight, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think of any. Fritz Rappold, Warburton.

Tree danger ignored ABOUT two months ago, I notified the shire of a dangerous tree on Railway Parade, about 80m from the Settlement Road intersection. It was a very old eucalypt, leaning at a 45-degree angle into the busy road. The base of the tree would have been about two to three metres in circumference and it was obvious to everyone driving past that the whole base was hollow and filled with powdered lignin and woodworm/termite residue. The helpful clerk at the counter wrote a report and gave me a piece of pink ribbon to mark the tree, confirming that someone would check the tree within the next fortnight. During the latest storm last week, the tree fell across the busy road in the afternoon apparently between the hours of 2pm and 5pm. It was sheer luck that it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit a car. I leave it to your imagination what could have eventuated. Surely the paranoid attitude of being so protective of native flora at the expense of human safety is being unrealistic. Yes, we choose to live among nature, and we adjust to living in this beautiful environment. But the Shire and the Department of Environment must surely find a balance between protecting the environment and being sen-

Cartoon sible about protecting the population. Eve Marso, East Warburton.

Healesville Guardian 31 October 1936 Healesville Council Notes THE Country Roads Board has informed council that it will take over the supervision of the Healesville-Alexandra Road construction between Yarra flats and the township boundary. A letter was received from the Workers' Sports Federation (Healesville Auxiliary) regarding the Christmas encampment of 1000 members of the federation requesting co-operation of the council in welcoming the visitors and extend to them those essential privileges which can only be made available by the shire. A letter was received from Fisheries and Games Department stating that the chief inspector would shortly be advising that the government will shortly be taking steps to preserve the koala. Cr Mowle responded - but it was too late the trees are gone from Badger Creek. Upper Yarra Mail 3 November 1994 Primary School to Close St. Josephâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Primary School, Warburton is to close at the end of the current school term. The Sacred Heart Parish Council made the decision last week. Father Chris Walsh, Parish Priest of Sacred Heart Parish said that the Catholic Education Office was monitoring schools with less than 100 pupils (Warburton has 67). It was unlikely to give a grant to St. Josephâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s while it had declining enrolments. Father Walsh said that every effort would be made to assist children who live around Warburton with transport to the Yarra Junction campus.

Abandoned again IT SHOULD come as no surprise that the residents of the Upper Yarra Valley have been abandoned again. The governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to implement an extension to the Yellingbo Conservation Area past the original boundaries of 2011 has left families at the mercy of an increased bushfire risk. This extended revegetation is on land upstream from the Woori Yallock Creek along the Yarra River and its tributaries, including the Little Yarra River and other creeks and streams almost up to Warburton and covering towns such as Launching Place, Yarra Junction and Gladysdale. As if this area needs increased fire risk, given Warburton has been rated by DELWP and the CFA as having the highest bushfire risk level in the state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bushfire safety and preparedness at the forefront of your governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mindâ&#x20AC;? was stated by Hon. Lily Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ambrosio MP, our Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change. Clearly, the families of the Upper Yarra Valley area are bushfire exempt! Susan Hotton, Yarra Junction.

Parks are off-limits BADGER Weir, Donnelly’s Weir and Maroondah Reservoir Park will be off-limits to visitors through coming weeks, with Parks Victoria still working to clear debris after storms felled hundreds of trees. Parks staff are working to clear the destruction left from the 9 October storm, which saw winds of up to 120km/h hit the region, felling trees, damaging property and knocking down powerlines. Taking the Mail on a tour of Maroondah Reservoir Park and Badger Weir Picnic Ground on Wednesday, 26 October, Area Chief Ranger, Conrad Annal said 162 trees had fallen at Maroondah Reservoir alone. Visiting the site, about 40 workers were moving and chainsawing tree trunks around the main car park, with huge tree stumps and their roots still tipped over near an information kiosk, with a streetlamp

Parks Victoria’s Conrad Annal next to one of the fallen trees at Picture: JESSE GRAHAM Maroondah Reservoir Park. 161149 lying nearby reduced to a twisted heap of metal. At Badger Weir, the landscape behind the picnic area was full of damaged and felled trees, and a public toilet, a picnic table area and old office building had been smashed by falling trees and debris. Mr Annal pointed out areas

where the road’s surface had been torn by nearby trees being uprooted. He said said the crews were working to re-open the “ornamental” side of the Maroondah Reservoir, which included the dam wall and the area at its base, in coming weeks. However, the area to the left of

the park, around Henderson’s Loop, as well as Donnelly’s Weir and Badger Weir would remain closed for the time being. “In addition to those areas, we’ve got a lot of walking tracks that have been blocked off,” he said. “We’re almost there – we’ve almost completed our assessments of our walking track network, so we’ll have a better idea of the breadth of the damage, and the extent of the work we’ll need to do cleaning it up. “Hopefully this (ornamental) side will be opened up in coming weeks – we’re currently doing a lot of planning around the other areas to open those up, ensuring we’re complying with all the relevant legislation to each park area.” When asked whether the parks would be re-opened by Christmas, Mr Annal said the extent of the damage was still being assessed.

Fire dispute to be put to a vote THE controversial enterprise bargaining agreement being put to CFA volunteers looks likely to head to a vote. Volunteer Fire Brigades Victoria (VFBV) on Tuesday, 25 October, announced it will drop its Supreme Court action over the dispute, just weeks before the case was to go to trial. The decision comes after the Federal Government introduced changes to the Fair Work Act, which attempts to block industrial agreements from interfering with emer-

gency service volunteers. VFBV Chief Executive Andrew Ford said the Fair Work Commission could now deal with the issue. This means the enterprise agreement between the CFA and its workforce can now be put to a vote of career firefighters. If a majority of the workforce agrees, it will then go to the independent Fair Work Commission for approval. The Victorian Government has been quick to welcome the decision. Monbulk MP and Emergency Services Minister, James Merlino,

described the decision as a win for firefighters and community safety. “It’s disappointing that Andrew Ford and the VFBV leadership sought to drag out this dispute and create division in our fire service, instead of focussing on what really matters – community safety and the welfare of our firefighters,” he said. “They have recognised that they have no case and the Opposition must now do the same – it’s time to stop using our firefighters as political footballs. “Our emergency services are fully focused on the upcoming fire season and doing what they have

always done – keeping Victorians safe.” Meanwhile, Gembrook MP and Shadow Minister for Emergency Services, Brad Battin, said the issue was not over. “James Merlino is again misleading his own community, trying to convince us the CFA issue is over,” he said. “This is far from over, as James Merlino continues to disrespect his local volunteers by handing control of their CFA to the United Firefighters Union.”

Crowds f lock to sweet sounds HEALESVILLE’S annual music festival is just around the corner, with the town to be filled with music and crowds from 11-13 November. The Healesville Music Festival will be held over the weekend in streets and venues around Healesville, gathering more than 20 bands and performers for its seventh annual weekend of music. The Healesville RSL, Terminus Hotel, Memo Hall and Healesville Racecourse will be some of the main venues at this year’s event. Organising committee member Auriol Hannaford said musicians would also be performing in the streets on the Saturday afternoon, as with last year’s festival. Auriol said the racecourse was a new addition to the event, and that weekend-long camping at the site would be available. She said the racecourse would be a smaller venue, making for an intimate setting to listen and also have opportunities to participate in sessions as they occur. One of the highlights of last year’s festival was a bush dance held at the Memo Hall on the Saturday evening, and Auriol said the show would “definitely” go ahead this year. She said the weekend would be an opportunity for locals and visitors to explore the town and see music of all genres, including the USA’s Haywood Billy Goats – one of the headline acts. “It’s a vibrant, colourful, really interesting place to come and listen to some familiar music or even a style you have not heard before. It’s wonderful if you find something new – and really immerse yourself in the heart of Healesville,” Auriol said. “You can have a coffee, you can explore all there is in the outlying area and still come in and see some good music.” For more information or to buy tickets, visit www.healesvillemusicfestival.com.au

Afternoon boon By Derek Schlennstedt ONCE more Healesville University of the Third Age Theatrical Group (U3A) will be putting on a show that is sure to have audiences dancing, laughing and singing in their seats. This November, the thespian group of “jolly players” will be having their annual Variety show at Healesville High School – an event not to be missed. The show guarantees an afternoon of jubilation, with sketches, monologues, comedy routines and ‘sing along bits’ included there will be plenty for audiences to watch and enjoy. Making a re-appearance

will be Doug Fudge who when matched with his guitar and hilarity, and perhaps some of his ukulele class, will guarantee a great afternoon. Stars from far and wide will be participating, and over 30 enthusiastic actors and actresses have been practicing diligently for the performance date. Of the 30 actors and actresses taking part in the show many are well known-locals and you never know who you might see performing. The performance is sure to be fantastic with the U3A group practicing meticulously by holding regular practice and dress rehearsals in the last month in preparation for the

performance date on 19 November. The performance will take place on Saturday 19 November, at 2pm, at the Healesville High School on Cameron’s Road. Tickets are only $5 and can be purchased either at the Healesville Senior Citizens Hall on a Thursday from 10.30am to noon, or at the theatre door on the day of the show - but you’ll have to get in quick as seats are filling fast. Don’t forget to make a note in your diary as this performance is guaranteed to be a delightful afternoon filled with laughs, entertainment and fun.

Healesville University of the Third Age will be holding their annual variety show this November and is guaranteed to have audiences singing, laughing and dancing in their PICTURE: DEREK SCHLENNSTEDT seats. 161287

THE TOOLANGI Sculpture Trail is about to get underway, with 15 artists from the Yarra Ranges and around the country working for two weeks to create art in the bush. The festival will see the artists working from 6 to 20 November to create works in the Toolangi State Forest, near the Toolangi Forest Discovery Centre.

The event is being held to co-incide with the 20th anniversary of the International Sculpture Event, which was held in the same spot in 1996. From Sunday 6 November, the sculpture trail will officially be opened in an invitation-only event at the Forest Discovery Centre, with artists commencing their work at 9am on the Monday morning.

Primary schools and youth groups will be involved in educational activities and workshops, with tours held daily from 9 to 19 November. The tours are free and open to the public, but bookings are encouraged for weekend sessions. For the full trail program, or to book a tour, visit www.toolangisculpture.com/program

Mystery of the pointless

JACK REACHER: NEVER GO BACK

KEEPING UP WITH THE JONESES

THE LIGHT BETWEEN THE OCEANS

KIDS FLICKS FLICKS SAT/SUN SAT/SUN

Inferno (M) Starring Tom Hanks, Felicity Jones, Ben Foster INFERNO, the third film adapted from the novels of Dan Brown, is a tedious, overwhelmingly pointless mystery movie. A Dante-obsessed geneticist, Bertrand Zobrist (Ben Foster), has created a deadly virus that will wipe out half of the world’s population, and Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) must regain his memories and find the virus

before it can be released. Looking at the positives, Hanks is affably engaging as ever, Felicity Jones is a graceful, perceptive on-screen partner as Dr Sienna Brooks, and Inferno has punchy sound design and some truly stunning imagery. But the languid plot moves in fits and starts, more concerned with obtuse puzzles than developing any of its supporting characters. The film fails to drum up much tension about an apocalyptic virus, content to

just talk about it, and squanders any intriguing moral ambiguity it could have generated. The film also has one of the worst twists in years, with Langdon’s amnesia and the extended chase sequences orchestrated not for any organic story reason, but simply for the sake of a twist. Hanks, Jones, director Ron Howard and author Dan Brown all deserve better than this slow, contrived mess of a film. – Seth Lukas Hynes

Sunshine brings out best in athletes By Jamie Strudley YARRA VALLEY ATHLETICS THE weather gods finally turned favourable for Yarra Ranges Athletics athletes last weekend and the athletes made the most of it with some superb performances. The first twilight round of the year gave our athletes an opportunity to race under lights making the evening more exciting for all. The club would like to thank the

age group leaders and other helpers for again stepping up and making the evening well run and enjoyable for the athletes. The senior team competed at AV Shield round at Nunawading. A great turnout of athletes ensured we had some excellent results across all grades. A special welcome to new members competing for Yarra Ranges Athletics for the first time; well done to Graham Coutts, Anika

Homann, Georgia Homann and Maddison Phauh. Good luck to all athletes competing at the Victorian All Schools Championships next weekend. The rest will be back at Morrison Reserve at 8.30am next Saturday morning for round 5 of Little Athletics season. Relay teams will be finalised shortly for EMR relays; we look forward to seeing lots of smiling faces representing Yarra Ranges Athletics.

Don’t forget to book your table at our karaoke trivia night on 12 November. Get your friends and neighbours together for a fun social night out and support the club’s major fundraising event of the year. For information on how to join or trial, photos, results and updated news, visit the all new and improved website at yarrarangesathletics.org. au or check out the Facebook page. Run, jump, throw ... too easy!

Captain’s masterful knock By Chris Anderson YARRA VALLEY CRICKET ASSOCIATION WITH the heavy rains kicking off last weekend calling a halt to cricketing action, the exact opposite occurred across the Yarra Valley this weekend with the revised one day matches for round four being played in spectacular conditions. With an interrupted beginning to the season, players were keen to get on the field and blow out some early season rust. Mount Evelyn were one such team in the competition’s premier grade DJ Strachan Shield. Courtesy of a bye, unlike the other teams in the grade that managed to pick up a game last Sunday, the Rovers sat out last weekend and were eager to strut their stuff. That they did, as they travelled to Yarra Junction on put on a clinical display led by captain Kane Jones. The Rovers won the toss and duly batted in great conditions. Yarra Junction boast a consistent bowling line up that offers challenges both fast and slow, and they certainly challenged the Rovers early. Quick wickets to Nick Bark and Hayden Wilson, coupled with some accurate tight bowling had the visitors on the ropes early. Kane Jones joined Jon Williams at the crease and although they found the going tough; they were able to guide their team through a tricky part of the innings. Williams fell before he could make a considerable score, but his influence on the rest of the innings can’t be underestimated. Jones kicked on with the remainder of the batting line-up as the scoreboard started to tick over with more regularity. The Eagles bowlers weren’t to be deterred and they continued to bowl well. They managed to secure regular wickets, while one sensed that they could quickly break the innings open. However between the strikes, Jones mastered the attack with a combination of brutal drives and deft sweep shots. Then, Jones was able to muster some valuable support from the middle-order. In the end, Jones collected a muchdeserved century and even upon his departure, much of the damage had been done. With a valuable late flurry of runs to Chad Witherdin (22 not out) and the rest of the tail, the score settled at 9/192; an impressive total at Yarra Junction.

As is the case with all cricket, when playing in the same conditions, if one team can make a total, so can the other with the same application. Mount Evelyn made the best start possible, with an early run-out, followed by two wickets to Kane Jones putting the Eagles on the back foot early. Cam Spaulding (29) joined Quinton Hodgkinson (21) at the wicket, while the pair set about rebuilding the innings. Against some steady bowling, the pair refused to let the pressure of the large total dictate any rash batting. Gareth Fraser (2/24) and younger brother Darcy (2/42) put together and excellent partnership of bowling, keeping the explosive batting pair contained. After an extended battle, eventually the stalemate was broken, as the bowlers won the arm wrestle with both Hodgkinson and Spaulding falling in the pursuit of much needed quick runs. From there, the remaining batsmen were unable to pick up the slack and the innings was wrapped up relatively quickly, inside the allotted overs, for 91. Mount Evelyn now return home for a clash against Yarra Glen, and will be keen to continue their unbeaten start to the season and establish their position in the top four, while Yarra Junction host Warburton-Millgrove in a key early season match-up between two teams evenly matched on the ladder. At the end of last season, Warburton-Millgrove and Healesville played two titanic games clashes either side of the home and away season. Saturday proved that little has changed as the teams fought out another classic at Healesville. Warburton-Millgrove won the toss and gladly accepted the opportunity to bat first. In typical fashion, the dynamic David Lever (43) quickly put his stamp on the game with some free flowing stroke play, as he quickly had the Burras in a strong position. At 1/73 after 15 overs, the visitors held all the aces in the contest. With the introduction of Burras’ nemesis Ash Hamer, the game momentarily changed direction as he broke the valuable partnership between Lever and Jason King, and with Chance Burridge (2/35) capitalising with two quick wickets at the other end, the contest soon changed complexion. Brett Winzer joined Mick Walker at the wicket, and the pair expertly navigated their way through the next 15 overs to rebuild the innings. Then, at 4/115 after 30 overs, the

Burras were well placed to put together a charge towards a significant total. That they did. The pair flicked the scoring switch and did in brilliant fashion. The Burras managed to score 94 runs in the last 10 overs in a sensational assault on the home team. Healesville had no answers to the all-round strokeplay of the pair. When the dust settled in the penultimate over, with the fall of Winzer for a well made half century, the pair had compiled an impressive 120-run partnership and had driven the team score beyond the 200 mark. Walker navigated his way to the conclusion of the innings scoring an impressive unbeaten innings of 63, and the Burras had finished in an imposing position at 7/209. In last season’s contests, the Burras batted first, compiled large totals, and the Bloods expertly chased the runs down for two exceptional victories. So deep in the minds of both teams, despite this being a total that would scare most, they knew that the Bloods had the capabilities to chase it down. With some tight bowling early, Warburton-Millgrove ensured that the target continued to get further and further away. Bryan Scanlon (28) and Brandon D’Amore anchored the early part of the chase, and, despite finding it difficult to score regular boundaries, the pair did manage to set a platform for which the Bloods could take some risks in chasing the runs. With the pair falling before the drinks break, the home team needed a much needed scoring injection as they were precariously placed at 3/67 at the mid innings break. Scott Hamer (46) had combined well with Ash Hamer (43) last round, with the pair setting themselves for an attack on the challenging total. Over the next nine overs, the pair put together a rapid 61-run partnership to give the innings some valuable momentum. Unfortunately for the home team, Ash Hamer was unable to be the batting hero as he was last season, with his wicket putting a significant dent in the chase. After an unfortunate run-out, Dermott Fry joined Scott Hamer at the wicket. The pair continued the assault. But with the run rate required ballooning out, despite the free-flowing scoring, the Bloods just couldn’t keep up despite their best efforts. In the end, the experienced bowling from Daniel Lever (3/32), David Le-

ver and Mick Walker proved valuable as the visitors were able to restrict the final total to 5/191 and take away the valuable win. After a disappointing result against Woori Yallock in the opening game, Warburton-Millgrove have been gradually building their form and will be keen to test Yarra Junction in a game that will have early implications on the top four, while Healesville travel to Seville and desperately need to put some points on the board as last season’s grand finalists are winless after four rounds. Woori Yallock have emerged from the first four rounds as the early pack leader enhancing their prospect of three title on the run. After accounting for WarburtonMillgrove and Healesville over their opening rounds, the Tigers outclassed new boys Yarra Glen with an even display with bat and ball. Yarra Glen opened the match with the bat. The home side made a good fist of matching it against the best bowling attack in the competition. The in-form Simon Young took the early wicket of John Orren, but from there Yarra Glen dug in its heals and resisted against a challenging opening spell from the Tigers. James Kelly and Brendan Ricci combined to add some grit to the innings as the pair navigated their team through the opening overs. Despite quick wickets falling after the dismissal of Kelly, Ricci was able to continue the level pace of the Yarra Glen innings with new partner Richard Ellisdon. On the back of a 52-run partnership, the pair were able to expertly guide the side to 4/104 with nine overs remaining; a position in which they could launch an attack on a decent score. Unfortunately for Ricci (48), he lost his wicket when the whips began to crack and this put a dent in Yarra Glen’s ability to press for quick runs. Ellisdon (35) was able to guide the visitors through the majority of the remaining overs to help them post a defendable total of 10/137. Woori Yallock’s recent success has been built on strong contributions from their top order. This game proved to be no exception, as the Tigers challenged the young Yarra Glen attack from the outset. Joshua Clare was able to remove the dangerous Ryan Smith relatively early, but that was the only success the visitors would have as Mick Dwyer (50 not out) and Luke Smith (64 not out) combined for an impressive unbeaten century partnership.

The pair was able to keep the scoreboard ticking over regularly with regular boundaries and little risk. In the end, they were able to guide their team to the total with relative ease, as the game was closed with the Tigers chasing the total down with the loss of just one wicket, and 13 overs to spare. Woori Yallock now have a couple weeks off courtesy of the bye. They will work hard on ensuring the break doesn’t affect their early season form, while Yarra Glen would be encouraged by their improvements over the opening rounds, and will be keen to continue their development as they travel to Mount Evelyn.

Burras score a big old win

Luke Fallon was among the fastest drivers on the day. 160644

Battle for the points By Dean Thompson ALEXANDRA and District Speedway Club began the 2016/’17 season with club category drivers battling for club points as they chase the possibility of being the class champion at the end of the season. Alexandra local resident Luke Fallon was among the winners, along with Courtney Meakins for her first feature win in the National Junior Category and Nick Chrystie taking a hard-fought win in the Standard Saloon division. Fallon had been a standout driver all evening. After securing pole position, he was able to out drive the number two ranked driver in Victoria, Andrew Jordan, in the final. There was lots going on behind the lead duo with Steve Kershaw, Dale Smith and, for a while, Shane Kruger in the top half of the field. Kruger was deemed to have been tapped and spun in the final and trying to wash off speed Lisa McPherson had nowhere to go and crunched into Kruger, ending both their attack on the top five. Rookie driver Matt Stampfli showed great skill as he stayed out of trouble and worked his way forward in the changing conditions of the race track. However, as he made his way into the top five, Fallon stretched his lead over Jordan, eventually crossing the finish line three seconds ahead of Jordan then Kershaw a further 5 seconds from Healesville back, Stampfli, Smith, Danny Eastham, Matt Chiminello and Paul Allen. With the Standard Saloon Victorian title at Alexandra in March when 60 cars are expected to fill the pit enclosure, local young gun Nick Chrystie was able to survive the challenges for the win. A great stoush between Brendon Eames and Scott Angus soon ended, as Angus at full speed lost traction of the rear of the car and slammed into the concrete. Amazingly, he continued on with a damaged car that later his father said will be a write-off. Chrystie took the win over Poole, while Wangaratta club members Andrew Robl and Trevor Evans were next.

Darryl Joosten from the Corowa-based club, and Angus and Kenneth Mankey were another competitor from Wangaratta. Pole position driver in the Junior Sedans, Kasey Garlick, led at the drop of the green in the final with Tim Gorski and a quick moving Courtney Meakins battling behind. Meakins started at the back of the field and was in third in the first couple of laps while Garlick led the trio up to the back markers in the field in the first couple of laps. Meakins passed Gorski and soon set about catching up to Garlick. As the 10-lap heat ran down Meakins ran a high line and started to get closer to the leader. On the very last lap, Garlick had to make a split second decision on how to deal with a backmarker and she hesitated and Meakins pounced and had the great speed out of turn four and clawed past Garlick at the line to win by .122 of a second. In third place behind Meakins and Garlick in the Juniors was Tim Gorski, then the second of the Garlick sisters Jessel; then the second of the Gorski brothers Jeremy, Nick Cherry, was next ahead of Rhys Meakins and Sharlotte McPherson. Lenny Bates was too good in the Street Stocks, winning all three heats and the final with Debbie Jones ad Lee Beach sharing the podium and the Ladies top three on points was Lisa McPherson, Alex Smith and Tegan Bullard. Great racing from the juniors with four races from five going the distance without a stoppage, the same to for the Sports Sedans and three out of four races for the Standard Saloons. Fastest drivers in each class for the day include Luke Fallon 20.019 in heat two, Allan Poole 23.104 in heat three, Lisa McPherson in the Ladies at 22.370 in heat two, Bates in Street Stocks 22.344 during heat two and Kasey Garlick in heat four of the Junior Sedans with a one lap time of 22.810. Alexandra returns on 19 November, with the visiting Production Sedans slated in for a feature race.

Busy week for the bowlers

Courtney Meakins enjoyed her first feature win in the National Junior Category. 160644

Eric Slater has just returned from his winter break in scintillating form; another threat in B Grade. Eric scored 41 points, the best score by 3! Ms Nursey was runner-up with 38

points as well; a sign that her long holidays are just around the corner. The ball rundown went to 35. The NTPs went to Benny Chester 3rd, Michael Hibbert 5th, ‘Happy’ 9th, Sean Kennedy 12th and to Benny 15th. Great to see Ben back at ‘Warby’ enjoying his golf. Also, in a great tune-up for the Open Championships, six-time winner Paul Mason shot a super 69 offthe-stick. Be warned!

YARRA JUNCTION BOWLS YARRA Junction bowlers had a busy week, playing three matches on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The Thursday match was brought forward from the next week so as not to clash with Melbourne Cup day. The normal midweek schedule was a match against Vermont South on their home green. Some repair work to the grass surface and very strong winds made the going challenging for both sides. Yarra Junction won one game, drew a second game 22-all, but lost the third 11-28, so Vermont South won overall by 11 points. On Thursday, Yarra Junction was at home to Greythorn and won the very tight match by two points. Saturday Pennant saw another good match against Eastwood Golf on their home grass. Eastwood Golf won overall by nine points but there was spirited play from Yarra Junction; Yarra Junction’s Club Secretary even played much of the match in bare feet after her bowls shoes had a ‘fatal wardrobe malfunction’.

Cup fun runneth over RACE-GOERS are expected to flood the grounds of Yarra Valley Racing for the most prestigious harness racing event of the year - Melbourne Cup Day, on Tuesday, 1 November. The renowned meet is the day to make a strong fashion statement with an exotic or outrageous ensemble. The day will be full of family entertainment, including live music, dining and hospitality packages, Fashions on the Field, children’s activities and more. This year’s Fashion on the Field competition will have new categories and a prize pool of over $16,000. Categories include Oxford Most Elegant Lady, Beautiful Room Best Millinery, Ed Harry Best Dressed Gent, Ozmosis Best Dressed Junior 1317 years old, and MRP Best Dressed Junior under 12 years old. There will be a number of public bars and racegoers are not permitted to bring alcohol to the day. Meanwhile, the TAC is reminding racegoers that the safest bet is to separate drinking from driving altogether. TAC road safety manager Samantha Buckis said planning a safe way home should be racegoers’ number one priority if their race-day plan involved drinking alcohol. While it is legal to drive with a blood-alcohol level under .05, Ms Buckis said any level of alcohol in a person’s system impairs their judgement and their ability to drive safely. Research shows drivers with a blood-alcohol level of .08 are five times more likely to have a crash than before they started drinking. At 0.12, their crash risk has increased tenfold. A number of public transport options are available to those heading to and from the event. Gates will open at 10am, and free parking will be available. For more information, visit country.racing. com/yarra-valley

Stay safe and plan ahead at the big race meet. 136107

Motoring Classica winner a classic AN AUSTRALIAN made, owned and restored Holden Monaro GTS made history by winning the recent Australian International Concours d’Elegance at the 2016 Motorclassica in Melbourne. It is the first time that an Australianmade car has won a globally recognised Concours d’Elegance event, and the first locally manufactured winner in the seven-year history of the Motorclassica event. Owned by Victorian Terry Smart, the fabulous 1969 Holden Monaro GTS won Motorclassica’s ‘Best of Show’ accolade to win the premier Australian International Concours d’Elegance title, along with the ‘Restoration of the Year’ trophy for its restorers, Recreation Automotive. Smart’s recently restored Monaro GTS scored a perfect 100 points from the hugely experienced Concours d’Elegance judging panel, which described the restoration as “perfect” and “faultless”. The white Monaro GTS beat a field of 85 cars and motorcycles to take the title of ‘Best in Show’. Previous winners have included a Ferrari 275 Lusso (2015), Aston Martin DB2 (2014), Rolls Royce Silver Ghost (2013), Bentley R Continental (2012), Bentley Speed 6 (2011) and pre-war Daimler Double 6 limousine (2010). “For a Holden of any type to win

The restored Holden Monaro GTS turned the heads of judges. 161158 an International Concours event is certainly unexpected but this particular example is a world-class restoration,” Motorclassica Event Director Paul Mathers said. “Without question Motorclassica is the Southern Hemisphere’s most hotly contested Concours d’Elegance, attracting the highest quality cars and motorcycles from around Australia and often the world. “In terms of quality, Terry’s Mon-

aro GTS, valued in the vicinity of $300,000, is literally faultless and as such a deserving winner. “It’s also an exciting decision indicating that locally-designed cars can be competitive at the same level as the world’s great marques.” Other winners at Motorclassica 2016 reflected the global nature of Concours competition: Richard Knight’s 1923 Rolls Royce 40/50 Silver Ghost won ‘Vintage

and Veteran’, Ken King’s 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II won ‘Pre-War Classic UK and Euro’, Paul Capel’s 1936 Auburn 852 won ‘Pre-War Classic USA’, Tony Coates’ 1956 Alfa Romeo 1900 C Super Sprint won ‘PostWar Classic Closed’, Sam Sofi’s 1959 Mercedes Benz 190SL won ‘Post-War Classic Open’, Theo Dimopoulos’ 1961 Volkswagen Micro Bus Deluxe 23 Window won ‘Modern Classic UK and Euro’ and Joe Caruana’s 1963

Chevrolet Corvette Z06 won ‘Modern Classic Aust-USA-Japan’. ‘Modern Classic SP and Performance Under 3 Litre’ went to the 1971 Dino 246 of Geoffrey Corah, ‘Modern Classic SP and Performance Over 3 Litre’ went to Phillip Allen’s Ferrari 512BB, while the ‘Preservation’ class went to Phillip Hilliard’s 1935 Rolls Royce 20/25. Among the motorcycles, Matt Willis won the ‘Pre-War’ class with his 1938 Indian Chief and Jon Munn the ‘Post-War’ class with his 1965 BSA Lightning Clubman. Motorclassica this year celebrated a number of automotive milestones, with special Concours classes awarded to reflect those. ‘130 years of Mercedes Benz’ was won by the 1955 Gullwing of Lindsay Fox, ‘110 years of Rolls Royce’ by the 1923 40/50 Silver Ghost of Richard Knight, ‘100 years of BMW’ by the 1997 840Ci M-tech of Robert Pavlov, '90 years of Touring Superleggera’ by the 1956 Alfa Romeo 1900 C Super Sprint of Tony Coates and '90 years of Ducati’ by the 1968 350/250 Desmo Twin of Paul Cowan. “This year’s Motorclassica has certainly unveiled a diverse list of worthy winners which speaks to the depth of Australia’s historic motoring community. Each year is a genuine surprise and we already look forward to what 2017 will hold,” Paul Mathers said.
