Vote buoys Ball By Kath Gannaway Jason Ball is celebrating a major step forward in achieving equality for LGBTI people. The 2017 Victorian Young Australian of the Year came out in 2012 as a gay, 24-year-old player for Yarra Glen Football Netball Club. “We have to celebrate the win as a community, and put our arms around each other because we have been through some tough times,” he said, following the announcement on Wednesday 15 November that 61 per cent of Australians voted to
legalise same-sex marriage. But, he admits his reaction was mixed. “When I was waiting for the result, I felt sick in the stomach,” he said. “It was the same feeling I had when I was young and coming out. That feeling of worrying about what friends would think of me except this time it’s the whole country passing judgement on me and my relationship.” He said the result with 12,720,920, or 79 per cent of eligible Australians, voting in a voluntary
survey and 61.6 per cent of those people voting ‘Yes’, confirmed what was already know, that over 60 per cent of Australia supported same-sex marriage. While it has been described as a ‘resounding’ endorsement, the reality is that Jason, and others in the LGBTI community, still have to deal with a not insignificant ‘No’. “To know that 38 per cent still voted ‘No’ is still hard to hear for many of us,” Jason said. “We don’t know their reasons, but we think a large number were hoodwinked by the No cam-
paign trying to conflate things like sex education and freedom of speech, things that have nothing to do with marriage. “While we can celebrate that the pathway has been cleared for marriage equality, we still have to keep looking after each other, particularly in areas where the No vote was high.” Seventeen electorates voted ‘No’ and the top 10 were in areas with a high multicultural population, or a high proportion of newly arrived communities.

Healesville wins UN post By Derek Schlennstedt Healesville’s Jayden Crozier always knew he wanted to be involved in International Relations and said he always had a passion for human rights. Now as part of an exclusive internship Jayden, 21, will travel to Switzerland on 12 February and intern for six weeks with the United Nations. The internship will see Jayden placed at the Australian Permanent Mission to the United Nations for the Human Rights Council in Geneva. Speaking to The Mail, Jayden said he was bristling with excitement about the opportunity. “Going to Geneva and Switzerland will be my first time going overseas, so I just got my passport and all that sorted and I’m really excited,” he said. Jayden is studying a Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Laws, majoring in Politics and International Relations and is currently in his third year at Monash University. He said the internship would help him gain a better understanding surrounding international politics and help to hone his interest in that sector. “It’s experiencing everything, seeing the Human Rights Council in action, seeing behind-thescenes work of the diplomatic processes ... I’m really excited in just the terms of the experience I’ll gain ... it will be a really good chance to see what the international sector is like.”
Jayden grew up in Healesville attending both Healesville High School and Healesville Primary. With Indigenous Australian heritage on his mother’s side, Jayden also works as the Indigenous Office Bearer at the Monash Student Association and is involved in various policy committees relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander issues. That Indigenous heritage he said is a pervading theme in his studies and he hopes to further learn and improve the rights of all Indigenous peoples around the world “I really like Indigenous affairs, especially related to human rights ... you see a lot of issues in the way Indigenous peoples are treated around the world, and it gives me a good perspective at least, especially in politics.” His mother Gail said she was slightly nervous about his internship but was very proud of his accomplishments. “He’s a young man with big ambitions ... I’m very nervous and extremely worried but at the same time very proud, and slightly jealous,” she said. Though the biggest challenge, said Jayden jokingly, will be the cold winter weather, which in Switzerland can drop below -5 degrees Celsius. “I’ll have to get a lot of thermalwear and jackets,” Jayden said.
Jayden Crozier, from Healesville has been chosen to intern with the United Nations in Geneva.
‘New’ courts in tip-top condition
Goodbye Annie
By Kath Gannaway
‘Lady Healesville’ and ‘Wonder Woman’ were just two tags that although seemingly at odds, fitted very well with the indomitable Annie Luscombe. Annie died on Saturday, aged 75, after a courageous and typically ‘no fuss’ 18-month battle with cancer. Healesville was her world. She worked for many years at the local telephone exchange, with husband Brian at the picture theatre and for many years was the public face of McKenzie's Tourist Services at the booking office on Green Street and on the phone. She was ‘second mum’ to hordes of kids who would fill the family home and adored by her own close family, work colleagues and many friends. Annie will be farewelled at Heritage and Heritage Funerals in Woori Yallock at 11am on Thursday, 23 November. The Mail extends sincere condolences to Annie’s family and friends.
Healesville Tennis Club completed a 20-year improvement program on Sunday, 19 November, with the official opening of two newly resurfaced courts. Courts 1 and 2 are the last of the club’s six Queen’s Park courts to be resurfaced with the en tout cas, sand-filled synthetic grass surface. The courts were officially opened by Casey MP Tony Smith. Courts 5 and 6 were resurfaced 15 years ago and 3 and 4 in 2009. Club president Cathy Cameron said resurfacing the courts had been a major project for the club which had been driven by past president Beth Honeycombe and achieved through hard work and good financial management. “Beth has been the driving force behind this project over the years, and everything that has been done, the club has found half the funds,” she said. The cost of the final two courts was $48,000 of which the club contributed half, with $20,000 from the Federal Government and $5000 from Yarra Ranges Council. “It has been achieved by sausage sizzles, tight financial management for the last 20 years, and frugal tennis administration, and I am happy to say we have the best facilities in the Yarra Valley,” Ms Cameron said. Beth Honeycombe said she was thrilled to have the work completed. “It was always something I wanted to do, and with the help and support of others, including all the committee, we have been able to fund-raise work with government to get this result. “Queen’s Park is such a beautiful public place and are so privileged to be here, so we also have

The opening was attended by Eildon MP Cindy McLeish, Yarra Ranges Council’s Ryrie Ward representative Cr Fiona McAllister, and club members, including several past presidents. The club has 120 members and runs night, day and competition tennis catering for all ages and abilities.

Federal Member for Casey Around this time every year I host the Casey Apprentice and Trainee of the Year Awards to recognise and encourage outstanding employees starting out in their chosen careers. I initiated these awards many years ago because I felt we needed to better encourage the
excellence and successes of our apprentices and trainees. Last Tuesday evening I was privileged to meet and congratulate the young and mature age apprentices and trainees who were chosen as finalists. This talented group live and work in Melbourne’s Outer East, the Dandenongs and Yarra Valley. As in past years, the finalists were chosen by a panel of prominent local business leaders. Consisting of Phil Munday (Phil Munday’s Panel Works), Nick Fraraccio (Stevens Glass), Sue O’Brien (Chateau Yering) and Clive Larkman (Larkman Nurseries), the panel again generously gave their time and years of experience to assess the nominations. For the 2017 Casey Apprentice and Trainee of the Year Awards, there were 13 outstanding finalists chosen from a wide range of trades and indus-
tries: horticulture, hairdressing, carpentry, property services, plumbing, advertising and signage, electrical services and manufacturing. The finalists were: Julian Bourne; Jemma Hirschfeld; Richard Klepac; Bailey Koger; Max Murphy; Mitch Reynolds; Jake Shanks; Shaun Siegl; Brady Stanton; Khaige Stenson; Jessica Teese; Leigh Van der Vlugt and Tyler Walker. Following the panel’s deliberations, two encouragement awards were presented to Khaige Stenson from MotoSign and Leigh Van der Vlugt from Energy Savings Lighting Solutions. This year’s runner-up award was presented to Tyler Walker from Nifty-Lift. Jessica Teese was announced as the winner of the 2017 Casey Apprentice of the Year Award.

Logging suspended By Kath Gannaway The Federal Court in Melbourne on Friday, 17 November, ordered that logging not proceed in 34 areas across the Central Highlands, ahead of a two-day hearing starting on 14 December. Environment group Friends of Leadbeater’s Possum (FLP) challenged VicForest’s exemption from Federal environment protection law in the Friday hearing, calling for an interim injunction. Environmental Justice Australia filed the application on behalf of FLP earlier this week. The case brought by FLP will challenge whether logging in endangered species habitat can continue to have a special exemption from Federal environment protection law. VicForests confirmed on Friday that court action was being taken in regard to their operations under the Central Highlands Regional Forest Agreements (FRAs) with CEO Nathan Trushell saying the state-owned company believes its operations are in accordance with the Central Highlands RFA. The court was asked to prohibit logging in 34 areas earmarked for logging where leadbeater’s possum and greater gliders live, unless federal environment laws are complied with. The application also called for the court to order the protection of areas to mitigate the impact from what it claimed is unlawful logging completed at 32 sites. FLP spokesperson Steve Meacher said logging in public native forests was exempt from most federal environment laws, provided it was carried out in accordance with the RFAs. The case before the court, however, alleges that five-year reviews, a requirement of the RFA, have not been completed as required and as such are not compliant with the Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act, which, he said, required federal approval for actions that significantly impact threatened species. “The federal-state Regional Forest Agreements have failed to protect endangered wildlife, but have been used to try to exempt the logging industry from environment laws,” Mr Meacher said.
Security forum to beat crooks Yarra Ranges Community Crime Prevention Officer, Leading Senior Constable Linda Hancock, will be at the Yarra Glen Living and Learning Centre on Saturday, 25 November, to talk about home and business security. LSC Hancock will discuss home and business security issues in the lead up to Christmas, New Year and the holiday period with topics including personal safety, burglary and theft, scams, electronic crime, identity theft and vehicle safety. Residential and Business Information Kits will be available, and there will also be the opportunity to obtain Safe Plate screws that secure registration plates. These special screws help to reduce stolen number plates used by criminals to commit further offences. There will also be an update on the CCTV cameras to be installed in Yarra Glen. The Living and Learning Centre would appreciate a gold coin donation for this workshop which will run from 9.30am to 11am. Phone the centre on 9730 2887 for further details.
A lowland leadbeater's possum in captivity at Healesville Sanctuary. 151468 EJA lawyer Danya Jacobs claimed the native forest logging industry has operated on the basis of exemption from federal environment laws for almost 20 years, but also maintains that the agreements have not been complied with. “This case asks the court to examine this situation in specific forests that are home to iconic threatened species that are suffering because of logging,” Ms Jacobs said. Mr Trushell said the RFAs existed to provide effective environmental conservation and timber industry certainty and added they believed VicForests’ operations were compliant. He said VicForests was a highly regulated organisation that was subject to regular audits and certified by the Australian Forestry Standard. Mr Thrushell confirmed on Monday that VicForests had consented to delay harvesting in four operations until the December hearing which, he
said, would provide the Friends of Leadbeater’s Possum with an opportunity to put its case in greater detail. “These four operations are part of 34 coupes we have agreed to suspend until the further hearing,” Mr Trushell said. He said VicForests believed their operations were in accordance with the Central Highlands Regional Forest Agreements (RFAs) and that they looked forward to the court clarifying their obligations. “We are keen to see the legal matter resolved as quickly as possible to minimise disruption of timber supply to local mills and to important regional jobs." The orders made by Justice Mortimer on Friday and other documents related to the case are available on the Federal Court website, here https://www.comcourts.gov.au/file/FEDERAL/P/ VID1228/2017/order_list

By Kath Gannaway Veteran Walling Ward councillor Len Cox will lead Yarra Ranges Council as mayor for the next year. In a career that has spanned four decades, it will be Cr Cox’s sixth time at the helm. He was elected to Lilydale Council in 1982 and, except for two years in exile during the amalgamation, has an unbroken record. At the other end of the spectrum, in his first term on council, Cr Tony Stevenson will take on the duties of deputy mayor. Both were the only nominees for their respective roles and were elected unanimously at the council meeting on Tuesday 14 November. Nominating Cr Cox, Cr Jim Child spoke of his impressive record over many years but paid particular tribute to his leadership as mayor during the 2009 bushfires. “When I think back to that significant event, when we lost 13 members of our community, we had a leader in the council at that time in Cr Cox who was exemplary,” he said. He addressed Cr Cox personally, saying: “It was an outstanding tribute to you, the way you handled yourself, and the way you represented council”. Cr Cox said it was a great honour to lead a municipality such as Yarra Ranges. “When I think about the council today, it may sound biased, but I think it could be called the best council in the state of Victoria ... maybe even further afield,” he said. He said the council was well-run with good staff led by CEO Glenn Patterson, and described the current council as “very bright”, intelligent, consensual and hard-working. “That’s what you need in a council,” he said. He also paid tribute to outgoing mayor Noel Cliff saying he had left big boots for him to fill. He said Cr Cliff had ran the meetings fairly, giving everyone a chance to speak and had been a terrific ambassador for council. He said he is a person who mixes easily with people.
Letters Green street, green roof What happened to the innovative green roof on the public toilet in Healesville? Is it going to be replanted? I was pleased some weeks ago when I was walking down past the bus stop to look up and see work being done on the roof and presumed it was tidying it up for summer. It had become a bit ratty. But it remains an un-green space and there doesn’t seem to be any sign of it being restored. Visit Melbourne and you will see green walls popping up everywhere, and green roofs are becoming popular as an insulation and for improving water quality, which I thought was the idea of Healesville’s leading the way green toilet roof. Yarra Ranges Council, please put it back. N. Hearne, Healesville.
Mayor Len Cox and deputy mayor Tony Stevenson. 175113 “People genuinely love him,” he said. “He talks with people, not at people, and that really is a great skill.” Cr Stevenson was nominated by Cr Fiona McAllister who said she and her fellow councillors had been impressed by his dedication, desire to understand local council and his whole-of-municipality focus. Cr Stevenson who represents Chandler Ward said he was looking forward to supporting the mayor with whom he had a very good relationship, and to working with a council he described as ‘collegiate’. “We don’t always agree, but we do work together in a constructive way,” he said.

“I have also enjoyed working with a very effective council team,” he added. Cr Cox told the Mail his personal goals were the same as they had always been. “It may sound corny, but my goal is to do something for the community. You can’t always do as much as you might want, but that’s it really,” he said. He said he was looking forward to a busy year. “I like to be doing things; like meeting people, like coming in here and working with the staff and I particularly like working with the council. “I’m imagining it will be a busy year and I am very happy if it is.”

On behalf of the Friends of Wanderslore I would like to express our appreciation for the article in the Mail prior to our open day on Sunday, 22 October. The day was a great success, inspite of the inclement weather. We had about 120 visitors. Our takings were the best ever and we gained 13 new Friends, due in no small part to your excellent write-up which stimulated a lot of interest in the local community. The success of our open day means that we will be able to continue our efforts to preserve and maintain this wonderful bushland sanctuary. Thank you again.

One vibrant festive spirit By Kath Gannaway A great vibe in a very special part of the world summed up the EarthArtBeat Festival 2017 hosted by Moora Moora Co-operative Community over the weekend. The three-day festival saw Moora Moora on Mount Toolebewong out of Healesville transformed into a colourful and vibrant festival space that offered a full weekend of music, workshops, kids activities, food, storytelling, yoga, poetry, alternative therapies and more. Festival organiser Chelsea McNab said calibre of performances was one of many highlights. Artists included Ganga Giri, Mal Webb and Kylie Morrigan, Little Giants, Dj Wonderfeel, Phoebe Like the Moon, Entwined Bellydance, 8 Foot Felix, and Dj O-Ring and more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had amazing workshops as well, and when it did rain, we had plenty of undercover areas, so it just pulled everyone together even more.â&#x20AC;? The festival has a strong environmental focus, and Ms McNab said it was another tick that at the end of the three-day festival they had just two waste bins and two recycle bins to deal with. The festival was a fund-raiser for Warburton Environment Centre. Visit mailcommunity.com. au for a festival photo gallery. Artist Melissa Shemanna was one of several artists exhibiting at the festival. 175262

Even after death they don’t part By Kath Gannaway Charles and Lorraine Hort were soul mates for the best part of 60 years. Surrounded by family and friends, on 28 September this year, their wish to be together forever was realised in a beautiful, dual internment ceremony at Healesville Cemetery. Charles died on 27 June, 2016 and Lorraine just over a year later on 31 August, 2017. Each in their own way had made a huge contribution to community life in Healesville. They met in 1954 when Charles left Healesville to go to share farming at Retreat near Finley, New South Wales. Lorraine Horneman caught his eye, and after a five-year courtship, they married in April 1961. They bought the property over the road from where Lorraine grew up, built a house, dairy farm and life together, raising five children, Neil, Christine, Wendy, Sandra and Alyson, on the farm. Family life was at the heart of the many interests they shared over a loving and fulfilling life together. Charlie as he was known, was born on 28 February 1931, the fifth child of seven to Arthur and Doris Hort. He went to Healesville State School, leaving school at 14 to work at French’s Laundry. He later worked at various timber mills before leaving Healesville to take on share farming. After farming in New South Wales, the Horts returned to Healesville where Charlie bought into the The Park Drive Motel (where Beechworth Bakery is now) owned by his brother Bill. As always, Lorraine worked side by side with Charlie at the motel. Sport was always part of Charlie’s life, and he was a high achiever. He took up cycling at 16 with Healesville Amateur Cycling Club, leading Healesville teams to numerous wins and championships including the All Round Road Championship in 1950 which he won by a margin of six minutes. He played tennis in Healesville and Finley, again notching up numerous premierships, and while playing in a tennis tournament in 1957 decided to try his luck in a local foot race. A surprise
Club over 25 years. Community service was something Charles and Lorraine embraced. Charlie served on numerous committees from school and sports clubs to church, fire brigade and hall committees. After returning to Healesville, he served as secretary and president with Healesville Garden Club and Healesville and District Tourism Association where he spent many years promoting
Healesville in Melbourne, Victoria and interstate, and where he was honoured as the association’s first Life Member. Lorraine was born in Finley on13 May, 1941, the eldest of Charles and Eileen Horneman’s six children. She was raised on the family farm ‘Braemar’ at Retreat with traditional values and skills of that era such as cooking, sewing, knitting and embroidery. At school she played hockey and was a Girl Guide, and after leaving school, in what would now be Year 9, she worked at the local Finley chemist. She was 19 when she was crowned ‘Miss Finley Show Girl’ in 1960. Like Charlie, Lorraine was a hard worker, and in the early years of their marriage became an Avon consultant to help with the family finances. She also took over the dairy at times so Charlie could take on other work. She played tennis and later took up golf in Finley, sports she continued when they moved to Healesville. Dances at Retreat were a regular family outing, and of course, they were regulars at balls in Healesville. Lorraine’s talent and skill with sewing and knitting and other craft were not only activities that she loved, but made a valuable contribution to keeping the family well fed and dressed and later providing extra funds to pay for holidays she and Charlie shared to places all around the world and caravanning to many parts of Australia. Lorraine started her own wedding dress business and many Healesville brides and debutantes walked out in their dream dress, thanks to her outstanding sewing and design skills, including her own children and grandchildren. Healesville was very much home to Charlie and Lorraine Hort and their shared values of integrity, hard work and community spirit gained them the respect and friendship of many. People loved Charlie for his wit and ability to put people at ease, Lorraine for her warmth, persistence and friendship ... and for much more. Laid to rest together was recognition of their devotion to each other and their wish to be soul mates forever.

Amazing 65 years By Kath Gannaway Toolangi CFA volunteer Bob Pockett was given special recognition at the Toolangi Fire Brigade Annual Service Awards and Brigade Dinner in October. Mr Pockett, 95, was presented with a Special 65-Year Life Member Service Medal by Ex-Captain Ben Rose, Captain Dawn Hartog and District 12 operations officer Charlie Cleary. Mr Pockett joined the CFA as a volunteer with Healesville brigade in 1942, where he served for two years. In 1953 he was a founding member of Toolangi Fire Brigade where he has held a number of official positions over the years, and remains an active supporter. He was made an Honorary Life Member in 1997. Captain Hartog said the awards represented just over 274 years of combined service to the Toolangi, Castella and wider Victorian and interstate communities. Brigade membership, she said, totalled just shy of 800 years of combined service, including those many years of service by Bob Pockett who she thanked for his ongoing support of the brigade. She said among many things, Mr Pockett’s attention to detail and knowledge of the brigade were a great asset. “It is due to these solid foundations and the ongoing support and leadership of our captains, brigade management teams, wider membership and their families that the Toolangi Fire Brigade is what it is today, and the success and positive environment we have,” she said. The brigade is impressive with nearly 80 regular members, 23 junior members, their first female captain appointed this year and a 50/50 balance of men and women on their management team.

Restaurant with global renown A hills curiosity with a rich history, The Cuckoo Restaurant is known for its hearty festivity. A traditional Bavarian restaurant, The Cuckoo was pioneered by Willi and Karin Koeppen. As The Cuckoo history goes, the once-modest refreshment stop was named after Karin heard the sound of a cuckoo calling during the night. Nowadays, The Cuckoo seats 450 people in three separate dining rooms and is renowned for its smorgasbords. And as assistant manager Simone Gordon explained, with a warm, ambient atmosphere, The Cuckoo advocates family togetherness and does its best to provide an experience where people forget their troubles and have fun. “We are a strong, generational restaurant that is tried and tested over many years,” Simone said. “We have the winning combination of family, fun and audience participation, which creates the magic that attracts people again and again.” Drawing visitors from all over the globe, The Cuckoo combines excellent service and an allyou-can-eat policy for all food buffets, with traditional Bavarian entertainment. “We offer value for money where you can eat as much as you want while enjoying the music and floor show,” Simone said. “But our focus is to combine being a part of people’s happy memories ... we want to create experiences where customers feel compelled to come back and experience the magic.” The Cuckoo Restaurant is located at 508 Mount Dandenong Tourist Road in Olinda. The local icon is a great place to consider over the Christmas period, too. For more information, phone (03) 9751 1003 or visit www.cuckoorestaurant.com.au.
The Cuckoo Restaurant is today a renowned smorgasbord restaurant receiving visitors from all over the globe.

Laughs are here and now By Kath Gannaway Don’t wait for the ‘silly season’ to get your laughs ... Catprint Productions comedy sci-fi thriller They Came From Mars - is as silly, and funny as it gets. Written by David McGillivray and Walter Zerlin, They Came From Mars is a play within a play with three performances at the Art Centre Warburton on 24, 25 and 26 November. “It’s a very silly, silly play about a bunch of ladies doing a play about a play, so a fantastic example of how not to do theatre,” Catprint director Claire Bamford explains. When the Farndale Avenue ladies attempt liftoff with their unique sci-fi thriller, it’s a given that their high-tech effects go awry. Add to that the limited talents of some group members, and the cast remains firmly on the ground. As ever, the resourceful Mrs Reece brilliantly circumnavigates pitfalls as she steers the company into orbit and through space to genteel tea on Mars. The Catprint cast is in its final weeks of rehearsal and Claire said one of the biggest challenges for the actors had been to act like they can’t act. “We do so much serious theatre, it’s really nice to do something where you’re actually trying to do it badly,” Claire said. “You have to act like you can’t act for this play, but the cast were just doing it too well. “It’s quite difficult, but they’re getting the hang of it and doing a really bad job of it ... which in itself is silly.” Book a ticket for your own laughter-filled rehearsal for the silly season at http://ach.yarraranges.vic.gov.au/Whats_On/Catprint, or phone 1300 368 333.

Art with muscle behind it
Lior back in full voice
By Derek Schlennstedt
If you missed the Healesville performance of acclaimed vocalist Lior, last year, he will be back in Yarra Ranges on Friday, 24 November. In an intimate ‘salon’ concert at Burrinja in Upwey, the renowned singer-songwriter will be performing material from his back catalogue as well as works from his forthcoming new album. Lior burst onto the Australian music scene in 2005 with his stunning debut album ‘Autumn Flow’ which became one of the most successful independent debuts in Australian history. A swag of accolades and awards followed with a number two on the Australian charts for his follow-up album. Known for his dynamic and moving performances, Lior has earned a reputation as one of Australia’s finest live performers. Tickets: culturetracks.info or ring 1300 368 333.
Painting and creating art is like a muscle, the more you do it the easier it becomes. That's the word from this year’s Sherbrooke Art Society Artist of the Year, Julie Kok, who for the last four years has devoted her life to her art. Although an artist since she was younger, Julie said it was only when she retired four years ago that she was able to truly focus on her art. “I retired from work four and half years ago and that’s why I’ve been doing more and that’s what has really helped me ... since then I’ve been able to use my imagination a lot more too,” she said. “My mind's always churning over my art.” Julie, 60 from Buxton, said it was her mother, June Cook, an artist herself who first piqued her interest in art and “after watching her sketch and paint,” said she “wanted to emulate her”. Since then, Julie has exhibited in private col-

lections in Australia, Finland and Holland and has taken a liking to the use of pastels. Though having exhibited across the world, this is Julie’s first solo exhibition and she said she was excited to have been named Artist of the Year. Unlike many other artists who focused on one aspect, Julie said she enjoyed diversifying and trying new styles, as well as changing what she painted. “I’m very excited, I’ve been working on the paintings all year,” Julie said. “I really wanted to go out and do landscapes but now I do a bit of both portraits as well as landscapes ... a bit of everything really, when I get sick of something I go to something else.” “My favourite subjects are reflections and landscapes, but now I am diversifying in other areas.” The exhibition at Sherbrooke Art Gallery is on from 11-25 November.

Snyder finally demonstrates a solid understanding of his characters, after his flat or wildly off-base interpretations (murderous Batman and morose Superman) in Man of Steel and Batman v Superman. The main heroes are all well-developed and have great chemistry together, aided by some very natural moments of humour. The broader conflict of Earth coming under attack causes the more reluctant heroes to finally
unite, embrace responsibility and confront their own demons. The performances are mostly excellent, save for a low-energy Ben Affleck emitting palpable disinterest. Justice League features great character development and several dazzling action sequences. Unfortunately, much like Snyder’s other DC films, Justice League’s narrative structure is very sloppy. The film relies far too heavily on telling us its back-story and plot details, instead of organically showing them to us. Despite their engaging personal growth, the heroes do very little themselves to advance the plot, which progresses in fits and starts, and the villain, Steppenwolf (Ciaran Hinds), is bland and forgettable. Justice League’s great character development and action scenes largely excuse its poor plot and erratic pacing, but it still can’t hold a candle to Wonder Woman.

PROPERTY NEWS
EXTRA TRAVEL CAN SAVE A BUNDLE NEW REIV data reveals regional buyers can save more than $350,000 by purchasing a home in the next town along the train line. V/Line’s Geelong service recorded the state’s largest median house price difference between neighbouring stations with commuters able to save $374,500 by purchasing in Lara ($455,500), rather than the previous station, Little River ($830,000). Lara is just 11km further from Melbourne. Significant savings of more than $170,000 were also possible for those who purchased a home in Kangaroo Flat ($293,375) instead of the previous station on the Bendigo line, Castlemaine ($465,000). Buyers willing to spend an extra 12 minutes on the Traralgon line could save
$151,000 by purchasing in Moe ($189,000), rather than nearby Trafalgar ($340,000). On the Bendigo service, buyers could save a considerable sum of $140,000 by purchasing in Kyneton ($495,000) instead of nearby Woodend ($635,000). Meanwhile, savings were also evident on the Ballarat line with a $123,000 difference in the median house price between Ballan ($460,000) and the following station Ballarat ($337,000). Homebuyers looking to purchase in a regional centre were also able to save a similar amount by purchasing one stop further along the train line in South Geelong ($597,000), rather than Geelong ($720,000). More moderate savings were also recorded on the Bairnsdale service with
Bairnsdale ($270,000) offering a more affordable alternative than the previous town on the train line, Stratford ($320,500). Savings were also possible on the Warrnambool service with Colac’s median house price $37,500 more expensive than the following station Camperdown. Investment and infrastructure commitments in regional Victoria by both the state and federal Governments will drive price growth in many of these areas, with buyers increasingly looking for affordable alternatives to enter the market.

The riders head off from the RACV Club. 175203 Pictures: KATH GANNAWAY
And they’re off... More than 130 cyclists set off from the RACV Club in Healesville on Friday morning (17 November), riding through the Yarra Valley to raise funds to tackle youth homelessness. The 2017 Property Industry Foundation (PIF) ride made its way on 50-kilometre and 75-kilometre routes through the Valley with a goal of raising $80,000. Dutch Tour de France rider Koen de Kort, and PIF Ambassador led the ride and said he was happy to be able to support the event and the cause. De Kort lives in Melbourne off-season but said in the Netherlands, as in Australia, youth homelessness was an issue. Other than pro-riding, de Kort said his passion was bringing awareness to the issue of youth homelessness in Australia.
“When thinking about young people who are homeless, often “street kids” and “runaways” are the terms used, but this is not the reality,” he said. “Most young people experiencing homelessness are hidden from view and aren’t homeless by choice, so, along with PIF and the other riders, I’m determined to raise awareness for these young people and help to give them a way out of their situation and into a new future.” The funds will be distributed to beneficiary charities, Chatterbox Bus and PIF Housing Program with industry members of PIF constructing the homes. Over the last five years PIF has invested $6.5m into vital programs. Each rider raises funds themselves and companies/sponsors donate.

Storm leaves chaos By Chris Anderson After a brilliant run with the weather to start the 2017-‘18 season, cricket was put on an abrupt, thundery hold due to a storm racing through the valley halfway through Saturday’s scheduled play. With DJ Strachan Shield and RA Finger Trophy scheduled for their first two-day game, most matches were interestingly placed, as most teams batting first were poised to push on to decent totals. The games will continue next Saturday with the batting teams holding the whip handle as to how long their innings travel, and how much time they leave their opponents to chase down the total. Naturally, the bowling teams can counter that by taking wickets. Some bold play, and captaincy, might be needed to eek a result. Yarra Glen would be disappointed their day came to an abrupt end, as they were having the better of their contest against Warburton-Millgrove. Batting first, the Riverpigs absorbed everything that the Burras could throw at them, and then sent it back with interest. New recruit John O’Donnell (34 not out) continues to prove his value to the team as his attacking approach has already caught a few teams off guard. Unfortunately for the home team, O’Donnell was forced to retire hurt when on the verge of blowing the contest wide open. The untimely rain could prove beneficial as he now has a week to get himself right for another assault. Experienced pairing of Brendan Ricci and Andy Cowan ensured that the Yarra Glen innings would continue to safely, leading their side to a strong position at 1/93 when play was abandoned. Although the storm has cost this game vital time, both sides will have a week to devise how they are going to approach day two. If Ricci and Cowan can start positively, and O’Donnell recovers from his injury, the Riverpigs can control the contest. The challenge for Yarra Glen is the decision to try and bat the Burras out of the contest while giving their bowlers enough time to skittle a formidable Burras batting line-up. Seville also had the better of day one against Mount Evelyn, batting themselves into a strong position before rain intervened. After a run of poor batting performances, Seville looked to dig in against the Rovers, and they successfully managed everything the visitors could muster. Mount Evelyn captain Kane Jones was able to eek Jake McInness relatively cheaply, but with Leigh Atkin (44 not out) and Liam McGookin (43) combining for an impressive partnership, the Blues took the bull by the horns. Batting through most of the first session, the pair put the team’s batting woes well into the background. Bereft of answers, it was left to inform leggie, Jon Williams, to break the union, removing McGookin to give the visitors some hope of reversing the trend. With the game interestingly poised at 2/111, rain intervened. Seville have the upper hand and will be determined to continue their impressive batting effort to bat Mount Evelyn out of the contest. Meanwhile, Mount Evelyn will be hoping to dig into a vulnerable batting line up to reinvigorate their shrinking opportunity to win. In the final Strachan Shield game, Yarra Junction fought back before the delay to wrest some control from Healesville. Healesville are just clinging onto the competition’s front-runners, and would’ve entered this
Skipper Kane Jones of Mount Evelyn battled to keep his side in the game over the weekend. 166293 clash with much determination to claim a scalp. Batting first, Scott Hamer (40) threw everything at the steady Yarra Junction attack, absorbing some tidy bowling early, then kicking on. The opening partnership stretched to the drinks break and Healesville looked well set for a decent total. Just as they controlled the contest, Eagles captain Kevin Bomford (3/15) ripped it from their grasp in quick time, taking three crucial wickets. The innings was set for an intriguing conclusion as Healesville’s experienced pairing of Ash Hamer and Brandon D’Amore started the rebuild, while the Eagles attack were proving extremely difficult to score off. Unfortunately, that’s where play stopped. Yarra Junction will be hoping for early wickets next week to limit the Bloods to a chase-able total, while the batsmen will need to combine a cautious approach, avoiding a collapse, with some scoring intent to keep themselves a step ahead in this contest. In Finger Trophy games, the interest laid in the Grand Final rematch between Coldstream and Gruyere. Coldstream have been flying thus far this season competing strongly against both divisions, while Gruyere have been slow to kick into gear, but their season in beginning an upward turn. Coldstream batted first, and the contest between bat and ball was intense. Neither team could break free from the other as experienced campaigners fought tooth and nail. The Crocs' experienced top order could quite crack it for a decent partnership, but they were able to keep the scoreboard ticking over while avoiding any serious disasters. When rain intervened, both teams would’ve been comfortable with the score line at 3/98. The first hour next week will be a key indicator of whether this game can push towards a result for either team. Hoddles Creek had the better of their interrupted first day against Wandin removing most of the Bulldogs’ top order. Batting first, Wandin absorbed the loss of two early wickets and a solid partnership between Danny Alderman (33) and Rhett Smith (32) had the Bulldogs back on track and pushing towards a strong total.
Hoddles Creek turned the contest back in their favour with crucial wickets to Liam Rowe (3/39) and Aidan Robertson (2/16) through the middle order. When play has halted, Wandin had limped to 6/111, courtesy in part to some middle order runs to David Wallace. This game is well poised for a result. If Hoddles Creek get through the tail cheaply, then they would be well on their way to securing a morale boosting victory, while the advanced nature of the game does give Wandin’s bowlers enough time to press for a victory despite being behind in the contest. In the final game of Finger Trophy, Woori Yallock were well poised to push for a significant total against Launching Place. Despite losing a plethora of playing talent in recent years, the Tigers still have their workhorse, Mick Dwyer (42 not out), at the top of their order. Once again, Dwyer has been consistently going about his business this season. His unbeaten innings helped guide the visitors to a strong position of 3/116 when stumps were drawn. The Launch bowlers did their best to keep things in check, and regular wickets ensured they would stay within arm’s reach of the Tigers. Both teams seem some way from victory, but some bold play on day two could change that quickly. For both teams, their bowlers will have the biggest say.

Finals were close in corporate challenge
Brayden and Eva on a roll By Jamie Strudley YARRA RANGES ATHLETICS Yarra Ranges Athletics welcomed the best athletes from around Victoria on Saturday to Morrison Reserve as hosts of Round 5 of AV Shield. A warm, still start ended with a wet, stormy finish to the day but not before an Oceania Record was recorded. It was great to see the track full with over 300 athletes, plus their supporters cheering from the outer. The carpark was overflowing, visiting officials and athletes congratulating the club on preparing an excellent venue for high standards of competition. Yarra Ranges Athletics had a fantastic turnout of athletes enjoying an opportunity to compete on their home track. Results: Graham Coutts 5000m 19.44.6, Martin Steer 5000m 22.46.7, Ashleigh Rooke 200m 29.36, Harry Norman 800m 1.59.4, Hayden Rooke 800m 2.17.8, Angus Norman 800m 2.26.0, Oliver Duncan High Jump 1.60m, Lucas Taylor 3000m Walk 18.04.8, Lee Taylor 3000m Walk 21.26.3, Tayleb Willis 100m Hurdles 14.56, Kathi Hewitson 80m Hurdles 19.41, Sophie Todorov 80m Hurdles 17.84, Harrison Van Duuren 1500m 4.22.0, Seamus Dwyer 1500m 4.28.2, Liam

Two club records were achieved, with Brayden Woolridge setting a new best mark in the Under 15s Boys javelin and Eva Johnson set her first ever club record in the Under 9s Girls 700m race walking event. The warm conditions made for the perfect opportunity for many athletes to set new personal bests. Next week, Yarra Ranges athletes will be taking on the best in the Eastern Metropolitan Region for the annual Region Relay Championships. Over 20 teams will be competing in a full day of racing on Saturday. All teams will be vying for the chance to compete at the State Relays Championships in December. The next round of Little Athletic athletics will be a Friday twilight competition; see you there at 5.30pm, bring a friend if you want. The seniors travel to Frankston on Sunday for Round 6 of AV Shield. For results, news, photos and more, visit www.yarrarangesathletics.org.au or check out the Facebook page.
HEALESVILLE BOWLS There was no Pennant played Saturday 18 November, due to the Victorian Open being played. Healesville’s Corporate Challenge Spring edition came to a conclusion last Wednesday night with the finals being played. After the completion of the games, the 28 local businesses crammed into the club rooms for refreshments and to find out the results, it was standing room only. In a very close finals game that finished
3/2 over five ends. The premiers were Pre Fab Technology, runners-up Pro-Style Carpentry, third was Bentwood Accommodation and fourth Rotary. All of these teams have improved from the last competition. The final was worthy of a Saturday Pennant game, not bad for newcomers to the sport. It just gets better with nearly all teams buttering up again for the next one in February 2018.
Big win to golfing duo SATURDAY Stroke and 3rd Round of the club championships. A Grade was won by Sean Kennedy with a super Nett 67. John Hall continued his rare vein of form to record a Nett 67 and take out B Grade. The daily runner-up was Clint Toohey with 67 also, losing to John on a countback. Balls extended to 72. The NTPs went to Lynda D (3rd), P.K. (5th), Clint Toohey (9th), Steve Wyatt (12th) & to Kim Kennedy (15th). In the Club Champs, Kim is a runaway leader in both gross and nett events for the Ladies. Junior Cross has a four-stroke lead in the Open; Clint Toohey continues to be in white-hot form to lead B Grade easily and Kevin Kane is a runaway leader in C Grade. The East-Hills trophy for best Nett winner after three rounds will be announced in next week’s report.
WARBURTON GOLF WEDNESDAY Two-person Ambrose and the Garside Challenge: the winners on this unique and fun day were Lynda Dickson and her Eastwood guest, Graeme Fox. They had an incredible nett 54.75 to run out easy winners, as the runner-up pair of John and Ash Hall were well back with 61.5. The rundown went down to 65.75. The NTPs were won by A.J. (3rd), Lynda and Steuart Hawke (5th), Jeremy Knapp (guest on the 9th), CHB (12th), Graeme Fox (15th) and to Max Carvill (17th). Longest drives went to Ian Garsy and Roma. Twilight: This week’s winner was John Hall with 22 great points. Lynda Dickson was runner-up with 20. If you scored 17 or better, you won a ball. NTPs went to Ossie McClay (1st), John Hall (3rd) and to Kim Kennedy (9th).

Be the best in the dirt By Dean Thompson

1187559-RC24-15
Alexandra Speedway this Saturday 25 November will host many of Victoria’s best dirt track Sports Sedan racers. A large cash prize pool will be on offer - along with Victorian Speedway Council state points when they compete for the win in the Sports Sedan Rumble. Last year’s Sports Sedan feature winner and Alexandra club member, Matt Nelson, leads the field with entries from Geelong, Ballarat, Gippsland, Victoria’s North East and Melbourne’s South East. Over 30 entries are already nominated for this weekend’s feature event, which is the best way to judge competition and determine set-ups for the Victorian title at the same venue next March. Alexandra has many top-level Sports Sedan racers that compete on a regular basis, of those nominations from: Matt Stampfli, Dale Smith, Shane Kruger, Luke Fallon, Nelson, Dale Morrison, Damien Miller, Andrew Jordan, Steve Ker-
shaw, Matt Ridd and Brendan Miller - who would produce a cracking feature race at any regular club show. However, you have a race not to be missed when you throw in Leigh Bourke from Geelong, the state points leader, Nathan Shortis from the Murray River, Morris Ahearn travelling from Mortlake, Brad Warren from Garfield and Lucas Conder from Ballarat. It’s anybody’s guess as to who is going to win - and there can be no mistake, everybody wants to win this one. Supporting the Sports Sedans is the SSA Junior Sedans, Standard Saloons, Street Stocks, Victorian Speedway Council Ladies and Juniors. Racing begins Saturday at 4pm, with $20 the price of an adult entry and $10 for children aged 10 to 16 and aged and invalid pensioners. Children under 10 years of age enter for free. Anyone who requires information can contact 0408 121 253.
