We like to party! By Effie Caloutas Take a step back in time and get ready to party! The Mount Evelyn Street Party is set to transform Wray Crescent in Mt Evelyn on Sunday 29 October from 10am to 4pm. The town’s shopping strip will be closed to traffic to cater for party-goers, who will flood Wray Crescent for the biennial 1950s-themed event. Event co-ordinator Yolande Pickett said there had been increasing interest in the Street Party, which was hugely popular two years ago. “We’re expecting 10,000 people for this year’s event,” she said. “Two years ago in 2015, we had 8000 to 10,000 people and the interest is growing at a phenomenal rate.” Ms Pickett said there had been studies undertaken in order to ensure the event’s ongoing success. “We have done a lot of research into the era of the '50s to make it a more authentic event,” she said. Two weeks before the Street Party, Michelle Puckey’s shop window and Mikki B will transform into a 1950s exhibition, using genuine and vintageinspired items. Co-ordinator of the colouring competition event, Michelle Puckey, said her window display is a fantastic way to promote the event. “It’s the only window display dedicated to the Street Party,” she said. “It’s going to be a window display exhibiting memorabilia from the era authentic pieces from the ‘50s.” Ms Puckey says she hopes locals can get inspired to dress up before the event. “We hope that the window display is something visually inspiring for visitors,” she said. “We hope people get inspired and dress up in '50s clothing.” Meanwhile, a historical writing competition will be run by the Mt Evelyn History Group and the Mt Evelyn Street Party, open to all students from Grade 5 to Year 10, including a colouring competition. In the lead-up to the event, there will be two dance classes, occurring at

The classes will be $10 each, or free for those completing earlier classes with Johnny Phung. There will be sessions for anyone wishing to try out the look of the 1950s offered by Deborah Edge at Rockabily Babes in Lilydale. The Street Party will include oversized ribbons, decorating the street and children ushered by parents and teachers before singing on stage in the morning. Beginning with a street parade at

10am, performers and people in '50s outfits will keep up the energy all day long featuring hula hoop artist Miss Malis Walsh, who has performed for Mick Jagger. Free and low-cost activities will be included including trackless train rides kindly provided by Children’s House of Early Learning and an animal petting farm through the generosity of Mount Evelyn IGA. There will be pony rides, face painting and market and food stalls. For more details, visit www.mtevelynstreetparty.com.

By Derek Schlennstedt Pets Haven, a new not-for-profit veterinary clinic and animal rescue service in Bayswater, is facing closure. The clinic made a public call on Facebook to residents and locals in the area for help, which if not received may result in the clinic's closure by February, said founder Trish Burke. The Pets Haven Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation which re-homes orphan felines and canines who would otherwise have no future. Pets Haven has an animal shelter in Woodend and the clinic was the next progression in helping many of the mistreated and malnourished animals get the best treatment available. “I started the animal shelter because of a genuine love for animals, and wanting to make a difference; and step by step we have,” Trish said. That difference can be clearly seen in the foundation's statistics. In the past year the foundation has taken in 3826 animals Trish said the clinic in Bayswater was created to ensure the animals surrendered to Pets Haven were given the best service possible, as well as to provide affordable support to animal owners. “The aim was to provide

better services to our rescue animals coming through the system and to provide affordable services to the community. “A vaccination is $55 and to desex a male cat is $65 - female cats are $100 ... the whole concept isn’t to put our rates up, it’s to be affordable for everybody. “From saving animals off the streets, to wanting to help the community ... that’s what this clinic was meant to be. “Pets are now seen as a luxury - we feel everybody should be able to have a pet in life and take care of it.” Trish attributed the clinic's

troubles to a lack of clientele, and said unless it changed it was likely the not-for profit clinic that relied on donations would close in February. “I can’t sleep ... this was just our dream and to see it fall apart, it’s soul-destroying.” “I wanted to make a real difference to every pet owner,” she said. To donate to Pets Haven Veterinary Clinic in Bayswater, visit donations@petshaven.org. au. Pets Haven is located in Bayswater at 302-304 Canterbury Road, Bayswater North.

Men master hot metal By Kath Gannaway Blacksmiths from as far away as New South Wales were among the 18 craftsmen manning the forges at the 13th Yarra Valley Blacksmiths Expo at Mont De Lancey Historic Homestead in Wandin on the weekend. More than 400 people attended the event which organiser, Oskar Huecherig said was getting bigger each year. The forge at Mont De Lancey is a drawcard at any time, but during the annual expo it’s the centre of attention with 14 blacksmiths working on hot metal using tools to hammer, bend and cut as they produce sculptures, tools, agricultural implements, decorative items, and cooking utensils in true pioneering fashion. Families enjoyed the free fun day which included medi-

A group of local artists in Lilydale are making playful invitations to community members and those driving through to participate more in the township. Throughout September and October The Lilllydale Alternative Welcoming Society (LAWS) will create unique experiences in the public spaces of Lilydale that surprise, delight and invite. The entire project is united in a vision, which is reflected in the title of the project, ‘Welcome to Lilllydale’ the triple L standing for: you laugh, you love and you live. Though, the three Ls also represent a union of the town of Lilydale with the old Shire of Lillydale, which after a century of grammatical estrangement, was time to reunite the region. Kate Baker, an artist who is part of LAWS, said the project focused on creating an inviting environment within Lilydale which was often overlooked due to its vicinity to the Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley. “Many people see Lilydale as a gateway to the Dandenong Ranges and YarraValley,” Kate said. “So we asked ourselves why can’t Lilydale be a great connecting place to other connect-

The idea for the project was to get some of those four million cars to stop and recognise that there is the opportunity for activities and more in Lilydale and for residents to celebrate their suburb. To do that, the artists have explored the cultural identity of the township and delivered five distinct public artworks. “We felt there should be an opportunity to say hey to those four million cars driving past, and that there is something here and that there is a lot more here than you know about, because it’s a great place,” Kate said.

Bridge is the world’s most popular mind sport which is not surprising as it is not only a pleasant social activity but a good workout for the brain. Exercising the body to maintain a heathy lifestyle is important but so is exercising the brain. Some say that regular mental workouts are essential to help prevent the early onset of dementia and other mental issues. Playing Bridge at a club like the Berwick Bridge Club is the ideal activity for this as you not only exercise the brain but you also meet and play with a group of 40 - 50 other players. This is a great opportunity to meet new people and make new friends. Berwick Bridge Club together with support from the City of Casey is presenting a Bridge in a Day event during the Seniors Festival. This free event is for people who think they might be interested in playing Bridge but are not sure how to get started. You will learn in a fun filled and relaxed atmosphere what Bridge is all about and how it is played. There will be plenty of helpers on hand when you start to play the cards to guide you along. At the end of the day you will know if playing Bridge is for you. Bridge in a Day is on October 28 2017 at St. Andrews Uniting Church, Berwick. The event is free but early registration to attend is essential as seats are limited. Go to http://berwick.bridgemaster.com.au or http://facebook.com/berwickbridgeclub

Yarra Ranges' human resources business partner, Kelly Ward.

Mental health is a challenge By Kath Gannaway

12367487-DJ41-17

Yarra Ranges Shire has the second highest rate of high or very high levels of psychological distress - 20 per cent of residents in metropolitan Melbourne. In an alarming disconnect however, the shire also has the lowest level of mental health services in the Eastern Metropolitan Region. Yarra Ranges Council CEO, Glenn Patterson, said the mental health and well-being of all Yarra Ranges residents, visitors and employees was a key factor in council’s decisions and programs. The Department of Health estimates that annual productivity losses attributable to mental illness range from $10-15 billion. Ahead of Mental Health Week - 8 to 14 October - people working within the council spoke out about how good mental health impacted their work with the community. Inspiro counsellor, Saba Balasooriya, said good mental health was about being emotionally, socially and psychologically well to function with day-to-day activities. “It means having the supports, strategies and self-care to get through the tougher days and to celebrate the positives ones,” she said. Inspiro runs youth and family counselling for young people aged 12-25 in Lilydale, Tecoma, Healesville and Yarra Junction on behalf of council. “We often help young people talk through struggles they may face in their life by assisting them with problem solving,

decision making, identifying strategies and building resilience, which all contribute to good mental health,” Ms Balasooriya said. Yarra Ranges’ human resources business partner, Kelly Ward, said council’s Mental Health and Well-being Policy made a commitment to enhancing and supporting positive mental health and well-being for all employees, councillors, volunteers, contractors and visitors. “I encourage all employees who are not feeling right and have concerns about their own mental health to speak with our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provider or their GP,” Ms Ward said. “Mentally healthy workplaces are more productive, and workplace policies should promote and support positive mental health.” For Yarra Ranges Council’s Museum Program Director, Patrick Watt, good mental health is about freedom. He said people could often be “trapped” by mental illness in their day-to-day lives. “Good mental health is freedom - freedom to do anything, go anywhere and enjoy life,” he said. “Bad mental health is the dog at your heel, the chip on your shoulder and the dark cloud hanging overhead.” He said visiting venues such as the Yarra Ranges Regional Museum in Lilydale and learning more about art and history could help to foster a positive mindset. “Exhibitions can offer us entry points into amazing cre-

ativity and research, and that can often inspire, ignite and provoke,” he said. “If you are enjoying an exhibition in a gallery, you must be out and about - and that has to be good.” Mr Patterson said the council had made mental health a priority through council’s Mental Health and Well-being Policy, the Health and Well-being Strategy for the municipality and by partnering with organisations such as Inspiro to ensure our residents could access services close to home. “We want the Yarra Ranges to be a vibrant place for people to live, work and visit. If we can support our residents and employees to have good mental health and well-being, that goes a long way to making that happen,” he said. “Whether it’s Mental Health Week or any other day of the year, it’s important to be aware of how you’re feeling and to reach out to friends, family or co-workers if things aren’t all right.” Link to Yarra Ranges Council’s Promoting Mental Health and Well-being information: https://www.yarraranges.vic. gov.au/files/assets/public/webdocuments/corporate-services/ governance/policies-strategiesgovernance/hwb_promoting_ mental_health_wellbeing_yarraranges.pdf For more information about Mental Health Week, visit www.mhfa.org.au.

More join fire overlay plan By Peter Douglas A further 18,000 properties in the Yarra Ranges are now included in an expanded Bushfire Management Overlay (BMO), with updated mapping coming into effect on Tuesday 3 October. Eight years in the making, the Victorian Government has unveiled the finalised mapping of the BMO, which now includes many areas traditionally considered more suburban in the shire, such as Healesville, Belgrave and Upwey-Tecoma. An estimated 40,000 properties shire-wide are now included in the BMO, which will mean new developments or buildings will need to meet higher specifications. The BMO is a planning control applied to land with the potential to be affected by bushfire. The expanded BMO does not require any changes to be made to existing homes, though home owners are still being encouraged to take steps to make their property safer. Yarra Ranges Council is now in the process of informing ratepayers through a combination of direct mail, advertising and digital communications.

Letters Sergeant’s salute I come from a long line of battlers - back to the first Sergeant at Arms in 1192, chosen to restore order in King James the Second’s court. SINCE then they have continued worldwide in parliaments (even ours), congresses and royal courts. We are devoted generally to helping out - not destroying our Mother Earth. Instead, if we work with nature to farm and manufacture bamboo socks and pillows, and affordable houses, we could help save civilisation. Hopefully, commonsense will prevail. So, we need seniors and retirees devoted to kids and future generations to get politically involved - regardless of politics. J.A. Sargeant, Healesville.

Strategic Planning Project Manager, Claudette Fahy, told the ‘Mail’ the BMO would help to create more fire-resistant communities. “The good news side is that ultimately it makes our communities more fire resistant and more resilient because - bottom line - you have to build to a higher standard,” Ms Fahy said. “But that only affects new buildings, so there is no need to retrofit existing buildings to make them more fire resilient. “So if your property just came into the BMO - and you’re not planning to build anything - you’ve just got another planning control attached to the property.” Ms Faye said the BMO formed part of an important response to the Black Saturday bushfires, with the BMO a result of recommendations from the 2009 Victorian Bushfire Royal Commission. “The Royal Commission was very concerned with people not becoming complacent about bushfires because when it happens we’re all on top of it, but now we’re here eight years down the track,” she said. “The CFA is always banging on about being

prepared and they’re right.” Director of Social and Economic Development, Ali Wastie, said the BMO was introduced to the planning scheme to make new or extended homes safer and more bushfire resilient. “If the BMO applies, a planning permit will be required to subdivide the land, build a new house or significantly extend an existing house,” Ms Wastie said. “Other types of buildings may also need a planning permit.” The new mapping has been developed in partnership with the CFA and CSIO. The BMO identifies areas subject to high fire risk and requires planning permission for building and works associated with: Dwellings (house, apartment, mobile home, houseboat or substantial structure); Dependent person’s unit (granny flat or moveable buildings); Education centre (kindergarten, preschool, school or training centre); Leisure or recreation; Retail or other uses.

Landowners can check if land is covered by the BMO using the Victorian Government’s ‘Planning Maps online tool’. Suburbs affected by changes to the BMO mapping in Yarra Ranges: Badger Creek, Belgrave, Belgrave South, Coldstream, Dixon Creek, Don Valley, Gladysdale, Gruyere, Healesville, Hoddles Creek, Kallista, Kilsyth, Launching Place, Lilydale, Lysterfield, Macclesfield, Menzies Creek, Millgrove, Monbulk, Montrose, Mooroolbark, Mount Evelyn, Narre Warren East, Olinda, Selby, Seville, Seville East, Silvan, Steels Creek, Tarrawarra, Tecoma, The Patch, Upper Ferntree Gully, Upwey, Wandin East, Wandin North, Wesburn, Woori Yallock, Yarra Glen, Yarra Junction, Yellingbo and Yering. In conjunction to the expanded overlay, two schedules have been introduced in some areas to help streamline applications for single dwellings or extensions.

Knox tracks the vandals - via app KNOX Council has enlisted a new tool in its war on graffiti, encouraging residents to download a free app on their phones called VandalTrak. Mayor Darren Pearce said the camera-based smartphone app was already helping other councils find, remove and deter vandalism and unsightly graffiti. “The app is simple to use, allowing people to take a photo of graffiti on public property in their local area and let us know,” Cr Pearce said. “We can then respond and remove it from

council buildings, and help police find the culprits.” Knox Council’s Community Safety Team is tackling the issue of graffiti all year round. They advise residents and business operators to follow simple tips available from the council website - www.knox.vic.gov.au - and their customer service team - (03) 9298 8000 to help the community join them in fighting the battle on the ground: Removal of graffiti within 24 hours is the most effective way to stop it. The marker or

·

paint is also easier to remove when cleaned immediately. Remember: graffiti attracts more graffiti; Every resident and business owner/occupier is responsible for removal of graffiti from their property. Removal could include paint out (council can provide discount vouchers); high-pressure water spray; cleaning with removal kits. To access discount paint vouchers, or free graffiti kits, contact council. VandalTrak is available on your phone’s app store, or by visiting vandaltrak.com.au.

As August rolls around in Victoria, some wildflowers, shrubs and native trees burst into flower. This is the beginning of what Professor Tim Entwisle refers to as the ‘Sprinter’ season, and it represents an earlier spring than our European counterparts. This sprinter, it was hard to miss the glorious yellow flowers of the silver and golden wattles adorning roadsides, reserves and backyards. Melbourne was blessed to have ironbark (eucalyptus sp.) and also red box (eucalyptus sp.) flowering in all of their glory. Insects which feed on acacia and eucalypt flowers in addition to the nectar, sugary glands and pollen provided by these trees, afford food for birds which unite in mixed flocks, darting about the forest in a hungry omnivore frenzy. My observations suggest that mixed flocks seemed to be more abundant this year. It was not uncommon to see sittellas, whistlers, honey eaters (white-eared, white-naped, brown-headed) and scarlet robins in the one gang. One could make the assumption that the flowering reb box sustained higher populations of canopy feeding birds. Two of the most abundant acacia shrubs around the Melbourne are Acacia genistifolia and Acacia paradoxa. Last year, both shrubs were flowering in late July. This year, however, Genistifolia did not begin flowering until mid/late August and Paradoxa shrubs were not flowering en masse until early September. Although smaller insectivore birds such as thornbills and scrubwrens can be seen most of the year, once these shrubs were in bloom, their chirpy sounds seemed to be more apparent.

12363868-CG41-17

These birds feel comfortable feeding on the food provided by prickly acacia shrubs because predators are less likely to risk receiving a thorn in their side. The lack of consistent heavy down pours in August combined with low sunshine hours, meant many wildflowers and shrubs were delayed from showing their glorious flower heads. Unlike established trees which have vast root systems capable of drawing water many metres from their trunk, smaller plants don’t have the same luxury. Not until late August/early September did substantial rain events occur. As a result, wildflowers such as bearded heath and the yellow star lily were flowering two weeks later than last year. Suddenly, it was looking like it may be an indifferent wildflower season. However, many wildflowers store carbohydrate energy in underground bulbs, biding their time for conditions to improve. After a bleak six-week period, Melbourne received two 20 plus degree days on 18 and 22 September. Due to a combination of vigorous rains and sunshine occurring, golden moth orchids, yam daisies and leopard orchids could be seen en masse; roughly around the same time they were appearing last year. Wildflower season was now looking like it may be reasonable! The September rains also brought about another flush of mushrooms. I spotted native, cup, disc and field mushrooms popping up their edible parts. The warm day on 22 September also coincided with the first day that I noticed healthy and rich populations of insects and spiders. This makes perfect sense, as many pollinating invertebrates require warm weather to become active, and they are waiting for flowering food sources to appear.

Asbestos for the holidays

Wood in a jihad By Peter Douglas La Trobe MP Jason Wood has engaged in a media offensive amid the biannual Council of Australian Governments meeting, spruiking his plans to toughen pre-emptive terrorism powers. As Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, state ministers and local government leaders prepared to table issues at the 5 October meeting, Mr Wood took to various national media outlets - as well as social media - to raise the profile of his proposed changes. Most significant among the proposals is giving police powers to request court ordered restrictions on any person of interest. This would include enforcing counselling and curfews, restricting internet usage and any associations with other extremists. In addition, foreigners on a visa would be given one month to enrol in a de-radicalisation program, or face being deported. Mr Wood said the threat of terrorism cells being active in the region was a real concern, particularly in the south of his electorate, which includes Gembrook-Cockatoo, Officer, Beaconsfield, Berwick and Narre Warren. “At present, it’s a wait and see approach - police don’t

have the resources to constantly monitor anyone they have serious concerns about,” Mr Wood said. “We don’t have those kinds of resources in Australia. “Under these changes, these people of interest would face a court and potentially face community protection orders. “It’s no good waiting until they’ve committed a terrorist attack. I believe this will make a positive difference to Australians.” Mr Wood is a former police officer and member of the counter-terrorism unit. He said the preventative detention legislation - as it stands - is inadequate and further powers need to be enacted. Mr Wood has cited the case of Abdul Benbrika, who was convicted of leading a terrorist network and is believed to have considered targeting the MCG. Previously, Benbrika was ordered out of Australia three times, but eventually allowed to stay in the country. Mr Wood spoke on Sky News, Channel 7 and wrote a detailed opinion piece in the Herald Sun. Reports have indicated terrorism is high on the COAG agenda, including making it an offence to possess instructional terrorism material and to make terrorism hoaxes.

Jason Wood is calling for more powers to fight terrorism.

Works to remove asbestos from schools across Monbulk have begun during the school holidays, according to Monbulk MP James Merlino. Mr Merlino has announced that $66,000 is being invested under the Victorian School Asbestos Removal Program to remove asbestos from six schools. Schools included in the funding include Ferny Creek Primary School, Mount Dandenong Primary School, Sassafras Primary School, Selby Primary School, The Patch Primary School and Upper Ferntree Gully Primary School. The program, which is due to be completed early next year, includes removing asbestos from cabinets and safes, along with the removal and reinstatement of some cement sheet ceilings, walls and eaves. Previously, the Victorian Government undertook a state-wide audit of government schools, which found 497 schools contained highrisk asbestos. The high-risk schools were addressed in March this year. Mr Merlino said the program was fulfiling a promise to remove asbestos from all Victorian schools. “We’re giving parents, teachers and students in Monbulk peace of mind by removing asbestos that could pose a risk in the future,” he said. “There’s nothing more important than the health and safety of our kids in Monbulk and we are getting on with the job of providing them with the best school facilities.”

Radio listens up for cash By Effie Caloutas Yarra Valley FM is holding a fund-raising trivia night on Saturday 14 October from 7pm at Mt Evelyn RSL. There will be silent auctions, games, entertainment, prizes and giveaways with all proceeds going to the station. The night will be held by two of Yarra Valley’s presenters, Neil Bull and Robert Jordan. Ex-committee member Robert Jordan, who does two shows a week on the radio station, says that it’s important to raise as much as they can. “We are hoping to raise $2000 on the night,” he said. “If we don’t raise much, we end up using old microphones and chairs that are worn out.” Community Connection Coordinator Greg Carrick said it should be an entertaining night for all guests. “It will be a fun time for all involved,” he said. “It will be a great time for people to put the presenters’ voices to the faces,” he said. With prizes donated by business in the Yarra Valley, Mr Carrick said he hoped the station could get much-needed funds for the general costs of the station. “We are always after good microphones,” he said.

A gardener’s passion for alpine and woodland plants has been artistically combined in a stunning Lilydale garden overlooking the Dandenongs - opening with Open Gardens Victoria on Sunday 29 October. Proceeds from this garden opening will support The Australian Red Cross. Set on a steep, yet wellplanned one-acre site, the Orvieto garden is richly textured with a diverse range of contrasting foliage plants accented with well-placed pots and an unexpected collection of conifers ranging from tiny specimens to immense mature cedars and spruce. This was a tricky site on which to create a garden, but the owner has crafted a series of formal and informal terraces following the contours of the land. Winding pathways along the terraces lead through a series of different rooms present-

A woodland grove of birches underplanted with rhododendrons leads up steps through an alpine area. From here panoramic views extend from the north face of Mount Dandenong to Lilydale Lake. Further on, a screen of European and North American trees gives way to reveal ferns and ornamental grasses. Elsewhere, there are delightful plantings of lilacs and olives.

The 2017 Wandin-Silvan Field Days will again provide an opportunity for exhibitors to present a diverse range of horticultural, agricultural and lifestyle products and services, as well as information and demonstrations, directly to patrons.

There’s something for everyone at the Wandin-Silvan Field Days!

Better than ever in the field Under the keen guidance of President William Anker, the organising committee of the Wandin-Silvan Field Days is busily planning and preparing this year’s event in anticipation of building upon the successes of the past. Now in its 48th year, the committee is looking forward to welcoming exhibitors and visitors from across the country to this significant local community event. The Wandin-Silvan Field Days continues as a not-for-profit organisation, operated and run by a committee of local volunteers, some of whom have a history dating back to the first event. The field days foster community

involvement, with local schools and community groups providing catering and other services as their major fundraising opportunity. The 2017 Wandin-Silvan Field Days will again provide an opportunity for exhibitors to present a diverse range of horticultural, agricultural and lifestyle products and services, as well as information and demonstrations, directly to patrons. Highlights of this year’s event will include an educational and informative interactive display and talks from Black Snake Productions, a pet show run by students from Mount Lilydale Mercy College, the popular ‘gen-

eral interest’ marquee section, which features local regional products and demonstrations of cottage industries, as well as the Yarra Valley Machinery Preservation Society who will give a working presentation and display of machinery of yesteryear. Great cash prizes totalling $750 will also be up for grabs, having been provided by the Wandin Seville Community Bank for the fifth annual photographic competition. Additionally, Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority (in collaboration with Melbourne Water), Ribbons of Green (Yarra Ranges Council), Agribusiness

Yarra Valley, Yarra Ranges Landcare Network and Queensland Fruit Fly Awareness will also be working together in a collaborative effort to combine for a display that addresses land management concepts. “Our committee understands the importance of farming in Victoria, and in particular that of the greater Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges, and we are very proud to maintain the tradition of being able to present this major regional event,” William said. The committee actively encourages the participation of relevant exhibitors who are able to support the WandinSilvan Field Days theme. From general

farm machinery, light industrial equipment, motor vehicles and motorbikes through to irrigation equipment, water tanks, pest and weed control, fertilisers, chemicals, and fruit packaging and labelling ... right through to gumboots and secateurs’, there’s something for everyone at the Wandin-Silvan Field Days. Wandin-Silvan Horticultural and Farm Machinery Field Days will run from Friday 13 October 8.30am to 5pm and Saturday 14 October 8.30am to 4pm at the Wandin East Reserve (corner of Monbulk-Seville and Parker Roads, Wandin East).

Power and the safety supreme

Safer Quads will appear at the Wandin Silvan Field Days with their exciting Mini Quad Truck (MQT). 1900mm X 1400mm tray which has drop-down sides for easier loading along with a brush bar to protect the front of the vehicle along with a tow bar at the rear,” Mr Cook said. “Mechanically, the MQT is

equipped with 2WD, 4WD, rear difflock, hi/lo ratio and its easily accessible engine compartment makes servicing a breeze. “If you’re concerned about workplace safety for your employees or

family or just looking for a reliable farm workhorse that is safer, more comfortable and more economical than traditional ATV/ RTVs that provides you with greater work flexibility, then this little “go anywhere vehicle”

is worth consideration.” Wandin Silvan Field Days will take place on Friday 13 and Saturday 14 October at the Wandin East Recreation Reserve. Safer Quads will be located on site F8. 12367369-ACM41-17

Having launched a new all-terrain vehicle (ATV) into the Australian market, Safer Quads will appear at the Wandin Silvan Field Days with their exciting Mini Quad Truck (MQT). Importer and distributor Colin Cook said the business ‘Safer Quads’, who pride themselves on safety, have brought these vehicles to Australia following the vehicle’s safety record overseas. “Our vision is to offer Australian primary producers a safer alternative to what’s currently on offer,” Mr Cook said. “(We’ve had) over 20 years of success in New Zealand and 4000 sales - zero fatalities and zero injuries have been recorded. “This Japanese manufactured vehicle is modified in New Zealand for farming conditions and is approved by VicRoads for conditional registration.” As Colin explained, the Mini Quad Truck’s three benefits include safety, comfort and economy. “The safety features include a fully enclosed cab, airbag, seatbelts, laminated safety glass windscreen, wide track and long wheelbase,” Mr Cook said. In regards to comfort, Mr. Cook said that the driver and passenger are protected from the elements with the integrated cab which features both heating and air-conditioning; making the vehicle safer and more comfortable to drive without the hassle of wearing a mandatory helmet. “Functionality - the MQT is built to work with a 500kg payload on the

Jazz brings ’em to life The majestic township of Marysville will come alive this month when the Jazz and Blues Weekend hits town from Friday to Sunday, 20-22 October. The annual award-winning event is set to celebrate music, food, wine and community with live performances, workshops, a street parade, live to air radio broadcast, and an auction of a Maton guitar signed by the weekend’s performing artists. The auction of the Maton M225 Natural Series acoustic guitar and case will take place on Friday evening at the Community Centre Stadium between 8.30am and 9pm. Joining the many hot acts at this year’s festival will be the Jackson Four, an internationally renowned blues, groove and swing jazz Hammond B3 quartet. They’ve recently arrived back in the country from the UK and will before over the weekend of 20-22 October. The quartet landed this week to the news that their new release, ‘Kool Kats - The Jackson Four’, is top five in the Australian Blues and Roots radio chart. The Jackson Four will perform for the first time at the Marysville Jazz and Blues Weekend from 9.30pm to 11pm, on Saturday 21 October. They will appear on stage one at the Vibe Hotel and Conference Centre. For ticket details, visit www.marysvillejazzandblues.com.

Blade sharper than ever Blade Runner 2049 (MA15+) Starring: Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford and Sylvia Hoeks

Musician Russell Morris will appear at the Marysville Jazz Festival. 173724

Thirty years after the events of the original Blade Runner, replicants - a race of bioengineered slaves - are still banned on Earth, and Agent K (Ryan Gosling) works as a blade runner, which involves tracking and killing rogue replicants. K’s latest case of a missing person may hold dire ramifications for human society. Directed by the extraordinary Denis Villeneuve (of Sicario and Arrival), Blade Runner 2049 is the best kind of sequel, in that it tells its own story by building upon the original film’s plot, rather than retreading or contradicting the past. The plot is clear and streamlined, yet suffused with character depth and intriguing themes. While the primary conflict concerns a heated search for an individual who could up-end the entire world order, the profoundly moving narrative is driven by introspection, as several characters explore their own identities and their sense of humanity. 2049 may have one of the best-handled twists in cinema history. The film establishes a status quo very early on, then steadily challenges and subverts it, with every mind-blowing revelation feeling rational and spaced out well so that we can find our bearings. Not only does Blade Runner 2049 transcend the original, with a more compelling protagonist, richer themes and a narrative with stronger forward momentum, but it may be the best film of the year so far. - Seth Hynes

Sing, dine, and have a funny time The show is hosted by writer and producer Andrew Malouf who spent 20 years as a tour manager and personal assistant to international artists such as James Brown, BB King, Alice Cooper, Suzie Quatro, to even the likes of Mickey Rooney. Andrew has been touring this production for over 12 months now and feels that a large gap has been filled in the ever-growing Dinner Shows that incorporate the show as part of the dining experience. The show begins when the guests arrive and finishes when they leave. It’s just like a TV variety show, but without the cameras, Malouf says. “We don’t even require a stage as the performers are mostly in the audience,” he said. Tickets are $35 for show only; $65 for dinner and show. For more details, contact 9736 4000. Right: The King Queen & a Whole Lotta Cash show is set to entertain local audiences.

12367095-DJ40-17

York on Lilydale is hosting a top night out with the King Queen & a Whole Lotta Cash appearing on Saturday 21 October. So what can audiences expect? Add Johnny Cash with a sprinkle of June Carter Cash. Throw in a dash of Liza Minnelli with a generous serving of Shirly Bassey, stir the audience until it requires the flavour of Marilyn Monroe. Then, let it simmer. Enhance with equal portion of Elvis Presley, along with one or two Queens. Finish off with a couple of old ladies and some great ’50s and ’60s music, heaps of audience participation, with prizes to win. Leave for over three hours and you will end up with a complete night of hilarious dining experience. Meanwhile, perhaps you feel like a night off that includes live music and lots of laughs? In the tradition of Fawlty Towers and Dirty Dicks theatre restaurant comes the latest in rock ‘n’ roll dinners.

Walter doesn’t falter The Basin’s Blake Walter has made a memorable start to the season with a century on 1st XI debut, propelling the Bears to an opening victory against Mountain Gate. Batting first at HV Jones, Blake’s 103 provided the visitors with a perfect platform to build a sizable target for the Gators, eventually amassing 3/275 from their allotted overs. Recruits Jake Sherriff (57*) and Scott Vozzo (33) ensured support with the bat. In response, Mitch Goddard (44) and Dewayne Bowden (37) put the Gators in a stable position to build up to a chase. However, wickets to Matt Heskes (3/45) helped to scuttle the home team’s plans and secure opening points for The Basin. Johnson Park returned to Norm Reeves Shield action as they hosted Belgrave. Both Devenish brothers were able to affect the scoring - Steve with 47 and Andrew with 45 respectively. A team effort saw the sharks to 8/191. However the Magpies were able to successfully chase the target to 5/194, thanks to John Levell with 69, as well as Ibrahim “Adil” Jiva scoring 58. Knox Gardens played out a tight affair against reigning premiers Knoxfield. Lead by Jack Taylor (55), the Knights made 208 in an even team innings. In reply, the Falcons were well placed at 1/106 off 27 overs - Shannon Small the main contributor with 47.

However, the Knights were able to slow the chase and attain wickets; Zac Wilson the pick of the bowlers with 3/40 in the win. Upper Ferntree Gully held their nerve against Eildon Park, with a combined effort seeing them to a 12-run win. The Kings, aided by Shane Luck with 45 were able to post 165 on their home turf, with Nathan Caton-Robertson returning to the Panthers as a wicket-taker with 3/25. Eildon Park’s chase was yet again assisted by Cody Morris with a 63. However, four wickets to Rob Birnie put paid to the chase at Kings Park. In the final match for Round 1 of Norm Reeves Action, Ferntree Gully collected the points against Upwey. Set 190 to win thanks to former Monash Tiger Dave Carman’s 68, the Blues were able to chase down the target eight wickets down to start the season on the front foot. In Decoite Shield, Monbulk were successful in their encounter with Lysterfield, as the Hawks, well serviced by skipper Shane Cosstick with 4/17 and 30 runs, passed the target at 4/158. Rowville produced a quality performance against St Johns Tecoma, with thanks to an all-round effort from Louis Holmes. Holmes took four wickets to help restrict the Saints to 8/198, before notching up an unbeaten 46 alongside Luke Guest (73). South Belgrave scored opening points too against Olinda thanks to a one-wicket run-chase.

Tim Scott scored 85 to help Olinda to 180. However, South Belgrave chased hard all day, eventually overcoming the target with four balls and a wicket to spare. Lastly, Ferntree Gully Footballers overcome Knoxfield at Carrington Reserve. Set 6/186 for the points on the back of Nick Bogar’s 49, the Knights were restricted to 121, Tim Carrington the pick of the bowlers with 3/25. Norm Reeves Shield Johnson Park 8/191 (S.

Under 16 MRSC players Max Lamers and Tali Holman both won the prestigious Golden Boot awards in their respective boys and girls sections, while Max’s team mate Erwin Berger was named Player of the Finals. Monbulk’s Tali Holman, Georgia Knight and Ella Tampiyappa were named in the Under 16s Girls All Stars team and Safin Clarke was named in the Under 16s Boys All Stars team, while Ariel Reyes was selected in the Under 14s Boys All Stars. Monbulk Rangers president, Sam Knight, attended the nationals and said she was proud of the talented pool of players from the club.

Monbulk Rangers Under 16s player, Max Lamers, received the prestigious Golden Boot award as a member of the Victorian team at the recent CFFA National titles in Sydney. 173686 “They behaved very professionally both on and off the field in Sydney, and their victories were a reward for the tremendous hours the players put into training in the lead-up to the Nationals with our fantastic coaches, Sam and Pete Wilson,” she said.

“To have a squad of 22 players from our Club selected to represent their state at a national level is testament to the commitment of the coaching staff and the skills that we aim to develop right through from sub junior to senior playing levels.”

Little Aths back on track By Jamie Strudley YARRA RANGES ATHLETICS Saturday was the opening round of track ‘n’ field for the 2017-‘18 summer for both Little Athletics and senior AV Shield competition. Fantastic to see the turnout of eager athletes at Morrison Reserve, Mount Evelyn, for the opening round of Little Athletics. Great to see so many familiar faces of our returning athletes and the amazing group of new athletes. The club hopes you all enjoyed the fun, sunshine, made friends and are looking forward to doing it all again next weekend. The senior team were spread between two venues for the opening round of the revamped AV Shield competition.

Motoring Motorbikes to the fore By Derek Schlennstedt

Only the best of the best will be at Motorclassica. 173219

Ferrari takes stage erations of the Ferrari marque, with an exceptional display of classic Ferraris on show for the public to enjoy. “Ferrari is thrilled to be officially celebrating this major 70th Anniversary milestone with our friends and fans in Melbourne,” said Herbert Appleroth, CEO, Ferrari Australasia. “The spectacular collection expertly curated by the team at Motorclassica beautifully illustrates the long-standing history and affinity Australia has with Ferrari. We are excited to share this heritage with our Australian clients and fans and encourage everyone to join us for the celebrations.” The record-breaking Ferrari 70th Anniversary limited edition LaFerrari Aperta brilliantly represents Ferrari’s unique core values: technological excellence, performance, style and exclusivity. Launched to mark the 70th Anniversary of the foundation of the company,

the LaFerrari Aperta is the new limitededition special series model dedicated to Ferrari’s most loyal clients and the spider version of the acclaimed LaFerrari supercar. Maranello’s latest supercar effortlessly combines extraordinary performance with the unique exhilaration of open-top driving. It is equipped with the same hybrid power unit as the coupe: an 800 cv 6, 262cc V12 engine (specific power output of 128 cv/l, compression ratio 13.5:1) coupled with a 120kW electric motor for a total power output of a 963 cv. A LaFerrari Aperta recently sold for a staggering 8.3 million euro ($AUD 12 million) at the RM Sotheby’s auction during Ferrari’s 70th Anniversary celebrations at the Fiorano circuit in Maranello. The figure set a new record price for a 21st century car. The proceeds from that sale will be donated

to Save the Children, an international organisation that works to improve the lives of disadvantaged children in over 120 countries worldwide. A collection of 70 classic and modern Ferraris will also descend on the forecourt of the Royal Exhibition Building on Saturday 14 October, as part of the Ferrari Owners’ Club of Australia’s 45th National Rally. Several special guests will be at Motorclassica across the weekend to share stories of their unique personal Ferrari experiences with audiences on the main stage. These include legendary motoring editor, Peter Robinson, and respected international classic car specialist, James Nicholls. Tickets for Motorclassica are now available at www.motorclassica.com. au.

Ferrari will be the featured marque at Motorclassica, the largest event of its type in the southern hemisphere featuring rare and exotic, historic, vintage and collectible cars. At this year’s event, Ferrari will officially celebrate its 70th Anniversary with Australian audiences at Motorclassica in Melbourne from 13-15 October. The event, held in Melbourne’s UNESCO World Heritage listed Royal Exhibition Building, will display the most significant collection of Ferraris ever gathered in Australia. From the early 195 EL, to the limited edition LaFerrari Aperta, built to celebrate Ferrari’s 70th Anniversary in 2017, the classic line up at Motorclassica will also include several of the most important Ferrari models from throughout history. Australian audiences will share first-hand the “Driven by Emotion” heritage passed on through gen-

Police in the Yarra Valley are putting motorcycle safety at the forefront of their minds for spring, which is traditionally when fair weather riders return after an extended break over winter. Operation Motosafe focuses on reducing injuries and fatal collisions and pays particular attention to the increased number of motorcycle riders during the spring months. In an effort to reduce unsafe driving practices by all motorists, the operation will also see an increased police presence throughout October and coincide with the motorcycle Grand Prix on Sunday 22 October. Over the past five years during the month of October, the eastern region of Victoria has sadly seen 47 people killed on their roads. Of these 47 lives, 21 per cent were riders. Eastern Region Road Policing Inspector Stewart Westfield said even though motorcyclists were vulnerable road users, it was up to everyone on the roads to take care. “There’s no doubt that with the warmer weather upon us and with the Grand Prix coming up we do see an increase in the number of riders coming through our area,” Insp Westfield said. “We all need to look after each other, no matter what mode of transport you’re in, stay within the speed limit and take regular breaks on long journeys.” Yarra Ranges Highway Patrol, Acting Sergeant David McIlfatrick shared Insp Westfields views and urged riders to take care if they have taken a break from riding over winter, as their skills might have diminished in that time. “Now that the weather is getting better, more riders are getting to the hills ... some haven’t ridden for a while and it does take some time getting used to the bike again,” Sgt McIlfatrick said. “Motorbike collisions are down on the past few years, so we like to keep it that way.”
