when Rhys was having a meltdown in a public space. "We've got 22 singers and six in a band and they're all donating their time," Mr Barnett said. "All of the songs we've tried to pick are kind of leaning toward being your own person and saying it's okay to be different.
"Just raising awareness about what autism is and what is isn't and showing that you don't have to do things the normal way to succeed." With all funds going towards raising money for the companion dog, The Barnett's said that any money raised over their target goal will go towards the charity or be donated to another family who may be struggling to raise funds for

Glen and Krystal Barnett's 5-year-old son Rhys is growing up with autism and an anxiety disorder. This means Rhys can become overwhelmed by noise and movement of highly stimulating environments like shopping centres, and when Rhys struggles to regulate his anxiety, he runs or has a tantrum. While both Rhys and his family have learned to cope with many things, the family is now raising money so that Rhys can have his own therapy dog to help him through his daily struggles. "It's a constant mental battle for all of us, we're always thinking about Rhys and what are the triggers," Mr Barnett said. For the Barnett's a simple dash to the supermarket can result in a breakdown. "It would appear to the untrained eye like a spoiled brat having a temper tantrum ... sounds and bright lights are all big triggers for him," said Mr Barnett. "Rhys was diagnosed with autism when he was almost three-years-old and we've essentially been hermititzed; we've really had to close ourselves off, because it is such a stressful lifestyle." To help ease that stress and help Rhys with his daily internal challenges, the family have decided to fundraise for a companion dog to help ease Rhys's anxiety and sensory overload. "Essentially they're like a guide dog in that they are trained to do specific tasks," Mr Barnett said. "In this case Rhys has autism, but he also has anxiety disorder, so the dogs are trained to literally sniff that. "The dogs can tell us whether Rhys is struggling by nudging us and they'll be a companion like a friend, but there's no pressure there ... even just by putting their head on his lap helps with emotional regulation." But, Companion dogs don't come cheap, and at $9,000 the family have decided to fundraise by holding a performance called 'What would love do,' which 'shines a light' on what autism is. Concentrating on the motto 'different not less,' the concert has a strong focus on Autism and removing the social stigma attached to it. Mr Barnett said it wasn't unusual to receive judgemental comments or looks from people

The editor’s desk We're more connected as a community than ever before thanks to social media. But as much as Facebook, Instagram and the like are bringing us together, the technology is also incredibly divisive. The Mail team heard about cockatoos causing chaos in the Healesville and surrounds but hadn't pinned down a name to contact. So we turned to Facebook and reached out to our readers. We were inundated with responses and have been able to capture a true snapshot of the issue, in the hopes of drawing attention to it and, ultimately, drawing solutions. But for every positive social media experience there seems to be a negative. Everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame, even if it's at the expense of others. Keyboard warriors smash out their thoughts from behind a screen and send them out into the world, seemingly without any thought for the impact those words might have on those who read them. It's easier than ever before to share our opinions - however ill-informed they might be. We can complain directly to the source of our grievances and can make a mountain out of a molehill with minimal effort. We can stir up a host of trouble for our target, then shut down the computer and give it no further mind. The ripple effect can be great, from hurt feelings to damaged reputations, and worse. The keyboard seems to instil a power in people that's absent in-person. The online space would retain its value and force for good if only we kept listening to that angel on our shoulder that pipes up in real-world interactions. - Casey Neill

THE SWING MAN COMES TO THE MONTROSE TOWN CENTRE… WIN TICKETS! Renowned character actor, stand-up comedian and three-time Barry Award nominee, Damian Callinan, returns with a new show about taking (mid)life by the horns. Damian's 12th solo show 'Swing Man' debuted as part of Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2016 and he is praised as one of Australia's best character comedians. He set himself one goal to achieve before he turned 50: learn to swing dance! Result: he owns professional dance shoes but he still can't swing dance. As far as unfulfilled life goals go, it's no modern-day tragedy, but when you selectively narrow your life goals down to one thing and you don't do it, it's time for revision. What else has Damo left off his list of goals? Can he meet his revised target of learning to swing dance by 51? Are his dance shoes tax deductible? The Mail News Group is offering two double tickets for Swing Man at the Montrose Town Centre on Thursday 9 August at 8pm. To enter our competition, visit mailcommunity.com.au/competitions. Entries close Friday 3 August at noon. *Winners drawn randomly from all entries received. Conditions apply.

IN BRIEF
Gail is up for Labor By Casey Neill A Silvan mum, social worker and teacher has put her hand up for Evelyn. Gail Ritchie is the Australian Labor Party (ALP) candidate for the seat, she officially announced at an event in Mount Evelyn on Sunday 15 July. She'll run against Liberal candidate and Wandin mum Bridget Vallence after Liberal incumbent Christine Fyffe announced she would not contest the Saturday 24 November State Election. Ms Ritchie said grew up in Gembrook and attended Monbulk College before going on to study social work and secondary teaching at Monash University. "After completing my studies I returned to the hills area and we raised our children there," she said. She has three boys - twins aged 19 and a 22-year-old. Ms Ritchie worked in the welfare field for about 30 years, and in teaching on and off. "I did a lot of work with young people," she said. "I've got a passion for giving young people the best chance we can. "I think getting young people involved in the community is really important." Her own children played football, swam and played basketball. "I think that we've always tried to be involved in the community," she said. "This seemed like the next step." She said she'd learnt not to just stand back and think someone else would do it. "I feel like I've been very privileged," she said. "I was the first one in my family to go to university.
Over the limit in more ways than one A Lilydale man will pay a hefty fee to get his car back after allegedly drink-driving and speeding by 80km/h in Chirnside Park. Police intercepted the 45-year-old on Paynes Road about 11pm on Thursday 12 July after allegedly detecting him travelling at 151 kilometres an hour in a 70 zone. Officers said he returned a positive preliminary breath test and they took him to a police station, where he returned an alleged blood alcohol concentration of .172 per cent. They suspended his licence for 12 months and impounded his car at a cost of $1017. He is expected to be charged on summons with drink-driving and speeding offences.
Bin fires Lilydale CIU is investigating damage to two wheelie bins at Warburton on Saturday night, 14 July. Two bins were set alight next to the IGA supermarket on Warburton Highway in the LaLa end of the town at around 12.40am. Enquiries are ongoing in relation to CCTV footage. Anyone who saw anyone in the area at the time is asked to contact Det Sen Const Danielle Fleming at Lilydale Criminal Investigation Unit on 9739 2300, or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Labor's Evelyn candidate Gail Ritchie. "That was a really big change in my life. "I think for a lot of young people out here it's hard to get that." Ms Ritchie said she'd been pleased to see Box Hill TAFE open on the former Swinburne campus, but would continue to advocate for positive education outcomes in the region. She also highlighted level crossing removals in Mooroolbark and Lilydale during the next term as a key project for the area.
She said engineering works for the project were underway and opportunity for community input was still to come. The Evelyn electorate takes in Yering, Coldstream, Gruyere, Seville, Wandin North, Mount Evelyn and Lilydale. Ms Fyffe received 53.53 per cent of the first preference votes at the 2014 election, ahead of ALP candidate Peter Harris's 32.21 per cent.
Unfinished business as boundaries move
Back of a truck Lilydale Police are looking for the owners of property that was in a timber tool tray that literally fell off the back of a white utility at the intersection of Maroondah Hwy and Manchester Road in Chirnside Park on Thursday afternoon, 12 July.

Dashcam call out By Derek Schlennstedt
mitted $10 million towards upgrading the road and recently in a letter to for Monbulk MP James Merlino, the Federal Government specified that it would consider providing an additional funding of another $10 million - subject to a matching contribution from the State Government. “We have so many cyclists using tourists using the road it’s becoming dangerous on weekends,” Mr Wood said. Mr Merlino said that the work, which included assessing the entire length of Mount Dandenong Tourist Road, needed closer investigation. “The works are likely to have significant environmental impacts and the community deserves to have its say and be aware of this before any decision is made to proceed or not," he said. Reflecting on 14 years of representing and campaigning in the electorate of La Trobe, Mr Wood said it was a magnificent place to work and he had no doubt that Mr Smith would continue to support the current hills projects.

Jason Wood will no longer represent the area he grew up in following the Australian Electoral Commission’s decision to redraw the electoral boundaries. Under the new boundaries, adopted on Friday 13 July, the Casey electorate, represented by Liberal member Tony Smith, will shift further south-west and snap up La Trobe’s hills-based communities, effectively aligning Casey’s boundaries with the local government area of Yarra Ranges. While La Trobe will lose major townships including Belgrave, Olinda, Kilsyth ,Upper Ferntree Gully, Menzies Creek and Sassafras, incumbent MP Jason Wood will gain Pakenham and nearby satellite towns. Traditionally, Casey is a safe Liberal stronghold, while La Trobe is marginal, with Jason Wood claiming a narrow victory from Labor’s Simon Curtis in the 2016 election. The redistribution was required to allow space for Victoria’s new seat, Fraser.
The La Trobe electorate is projected to have 116,587 voters by August next year, which exceeds the maximum number permitted by the Electoral Act. Despite the changes, Mr Wood reassured residents that although they would no longer be voting for him, he would continue to campaign for a number of major projects that he wanted to see finished. One of those projects was the widening and improvement of the Mount Dandenong Tourist Road. “My parting gesture is regarding the Mount Dandong Tourist Road,” Mr Wood said. “This is the last opportunity where you’ll ever see a federal government putting $20 million on the table to make something fantastic for local residents, making it safe for them to drive, and making it wider so local residents and cyclists can use it. “Quite simply we just need commitment from the State Government for matching funding.” In May 2016, the Federal Government com-

Maroondah Highway Patrol are hoping CCTV or dashcam footage can help with their enquiries into a collision at Mt Dandenong Road in Croydon on Monday 2nd July. Police on Eyewatch Yarra Ranges thanked people who stopped or came out of their homes to assist a female victim of the serious collision and thanked the fire, ambulance and SES services who attended. A 43 year old male was arrested and interviewed in relation to the matter and will face court on summons at a later date. Anyone who attended the scene who has not provided their details to police previously is asked to contact Maroondah Highway Patrol on 9881 7900 or make a confidential report via Crimestoppers on 1300 333 000. Anyone who has CCTV or dashcam footage of the offending gold Toyota sedan driving on Mt Dandenong Rd between Montrose and Croydon is also urged to contact police.

When you adopt a friend At any given time we are likely to have five to 10 dogs available for adoption. These are, in many ways, already success stories. Every dog that is available for adoption has already received so much care, training and medical support from our phenomenal staff and volunteers. We would love to take this opportunity to explain some of the steps that we take before any dog is ready for a new home.

If for whatever reason the dog is not reclaimed, it then becomes our responsibility to get that dog ready for adoption. This is when the largest part of or role begins. There is quite a process that takes place behind the scenes which will ensure that each dog goes to the best possible home. Once the dog is ours to rehome we want to learn as much as we can about them; we want to get to know them and have a thorough understanding of their needs. How do they respond to cats, other dogs and kids? How much exercise do they need? Do they have dietary requirements?
We have a terrific team of experts that can help with behavioural issues and our vet clinic will assess and treat the dog. This process can take quite some time - with daily training sessions, vet checks (often multiple are required involving expensive scans). Unfortunately, in some cases serious health or behavioural issues will make it impossible for Animal Aid to rehome an animal, these decisions are always made from a position of compassion and never convenience. If you have been thinking about bringing a dog into your home please consider adoption, they will thank you every day and repay you with so much love.

Burn-off law looms By Kath Gannaway A new Open Air Burning Local Law for Yarra Ranges moved a step further at the 10 July council meeting with a majority of councillors endorsing the recommendations proposed by the Special Committee tasked with updating the law. The draft which went out for public comment in April drew 210 submissions, followed by a meeting on 20 June at which 43 submitters who opted to speak had the opportunity to represent their views in person to the councillors. Controlling burning-off for fire prevention on private land while protecting air quality for residents and visitors required ’careful balance’, the report by the Director of Social & Economic Development said. The majority of the submissions were from rural and bushland landowners calling for fewer restrictions. The proposition that fires should be extinguished at 6pm, and the ban on June/July burn-offs drew substantial opposition, as did a proposed new law which would prohibit landowners from reducing fuel on roadsides adjoining their properties. A proposal to restrict the volume of a burnoff to 1 square metre, and not burn where wind speed was greater than 10 km/hr were in a majority of cases seen as impractical. Constant adult supervision of fires by an adult, a requirement to register a burn with the CFA two days prior, and to notify neighbours 24 hours ahead was also seen by many as impractical. A submission by Agribusiness Yarra Valley addressed all of the above issues calling for restriction on burning between 8am and 6pm to be omitted. Numerous submitters pointed out that extinguishing a fire at 6pm could waste water

A $3 million Federal Government boost is bringing the Warburton Mountain Bike Destination project a step closer. Casey MP Tony Smith announced the Building Better Regions Fund cash on Monday 16 July. The project will develop more than 100 kilometres of mountain bike trails in the hills surrounding Warburton, and is expected to inject $20.4 million annually into the local economy. Mr Smith said it would boost visitation to the Upper Yarra Valley and create criticallyneeded jobs. "It will be a magnet for tourists from all over Australia, who will stay and shop in our wonderful community and return again and again," he said. Upper Yarra Community Enterprise, the Warburton and Yarra Junction Community Bank branches, committed $300,000 to the project. Yarra Ranges Council will add $2.7 million to match the federal injection. "Small towns like Warburton have to be bold," Warburton Valley Community Economic Development Association (CEDA) president Peta Godenzi said. "This is an opportunity for the town to set themselves up to take advantage of the economic investment. "There will be opportunities for people who are unemployed to find work and we may see part-time roles become full-time." O'Shannassy Ward Councillor Jim Child said the destination would attract 165,000 visitors per year and create 122 new jobs in the Yarra Valley. BT Dubs Cafe owner Simone Senton-Jonker said the town needed new infrastructure. "If it takes the trails being built to make that happen then that's great," she said. The Old Warburton Residents Association (OWRA) formed following the release of detailed maps of the proposed trails, concerned about amenity loss, lack of infrastructure, and parking and traffic issues.

resources, make lighting up again the next day difficult and create more smoke. A Yellingbo resident who identified as Captain of the local fire brigade called for the existing law to stay. “With most cases in Yellingbo the safest time to be burning is in the evening,” he wrote. “Sundays should be included for burning to ensure residents have time to complete fuel reduction burns as the cost of green waste disposal and transport is not an option.” A Woori Yallock submitter highlighted the problems faced by working families. “Working five to six days a week, we continue to struggle to find the appropriate time outside of fire danger periods, not on a Sunday, when the wind speeds are low enough, not during June/July, when fuel is not wet and due to cause excessive smoke, in which to burn the large amount of green matter and fuel that the property generates,” she wrote. An Olinda submitter who also identified as a former CFA volunteer said the proposed burn-off days were too restrictive, but called
for more enforcement of rules relating to pile size, burning of green or damp material and during windy weather. “Every year I witness burn piles ready to burn left over into the summer danger period because people have not had enough opportunity to burn such piles. These all add to the summer bushfire risk,” he wrote. He said most offensive were burning of leaves from deciduous trees which could be composted, mulched, or where safe left to nourish the trees they came from. A Mount Evelyn submitter called for Mt Evelyn, in the bushland area, called for open air burning to be banned, in line with Lilydale and Mooroolbark. Garden fires produce a lot of drifting smoke, they said. “This is done at any time they wish. We are both asthmatics and this drifting smoke affects our health.” The 210 submissions and responses are detailed in the minutes of the June 20 meeting: The Special Committee resolved to submit the officer responses to the submissions to Council at its 24 July meeting as preliminary recommendations. Those recommendations included removing the June/July restriction for rural areas and removing time limits, fire size limits and the need for adult attendance, along with raising the wind speed limit to 19kph. Moving the motion on 10 July, Cr Tim Heenan said Council was pleased to hear from Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley residents and that council officers had taken on board some of their concerns. Cr Clarke however opposed the motion saying he did not support submissions that called for non-attendance at burn-off sites or unlimited stockpile size.

THE LOWDOWN Q&A
with Isaiah Firebrace, 18. Australian Indigenous singer. Winner of X Factor Australia in 2016.
12393857-CG30-18
What is something people generally don’t know about you? I’m a bit of a dare-devil type; bit of a thrillseeker. One day I want to go to New Zealand where they have a lot of the big thrill experiences and do something like that. What is one of your most memorable moments? Winning X Factor has been my most memorable thing so far, but even little things that have happened along the way mean so much to me as well. What would your final meal be? That’s a hard one ... pepperoni pizza. What six guests, dead or alive, would you invite to a dinner party? My family - mum, dad and brothers and sisters. What was the first, or the best film, you’ve seen? The first movie I ever saw I’m pretty sure would have been Winnie The Pooh. I remember watching it in my bedroom on the VCR. What are you working on right now? I’m just working on original content ... original music. I have a new single waiting to be released written and produced by Los Angelesbased production team - a family of the dad and two sons, really nice people. It’s quite nerve wracking because you’re never sure how well it’s going to go but because you love it so much you want it to do well. I’m also working on a new set of songs, a new show that I’m performing tonight (Wednesday at The Memo) with my band and music director. What keeps your passion for your music alive? Whenever I feel unmotivated about anything I’m doing I always remember why I first started and remember myself a few years back dreaming of being where I am today.
THREE … tips to stay safe this winter
1
Consumer Affairs Victoria recommends people carefully check that electric blankets, hot water bottles and other winter items are in good condition and have not been recalled. Take note of Energy Safe Victoria's information for Vulcan or Pyrox Heritage gas heater owners. These need to have carbon monoxide levels tested.
2
Use hot tap water and not boiling water to fill hot water bottles and replace them when they start to look cracked or worn. Only buy wheat bags or other heat packs that come with clear heating instructions. Overheating a wheat bag can cause the bag to ignite and start a fire.
3
Candles should be extinguished when leaving the room or before going to sleep, says Consumer Affairs Victoria, and should be kept away from curtains, bedding and clothing.

Planning for premier park The community can have a say on a five-year plan for Emerald Lake Park. The Cardinia Shire Council document will guide activities, maintenance, promotion and improvements for Emerald Lake Park and Nobelius Heritage Gardens. Cardinia Shire Mayor Collin Ross said an important part of developing the strategy was collecting information from the community. "Welcoming more than half a million people per year, Emerald Lake Park is our premier park and tourist attraction in the Dandenong Ranges. "Likewise, the Emerald Lake Park precinct is a popular destination for locals, day visitors and tourists from Australia and abroad. "This is our community's opportunity to contribute to the vibrancy of the precinct and to help shape its future - no idea is too
big or too small!" Emerald Lake Park covers about 52 hectares and features Lake Treganowan and Lake Nobelius as well as gardens and natural bushland. It has about 10 kilometres of walking trails, paddleboats, fishing, picnic tables and barbecues, a wading pool open during summer, two playgrounds, a model railway, amphitheatres and shelters. It's one of the key destination points for the Puffing Billy Railway. Nobelius Heritage Gardens is a four-and-ahalf hectare heritage site, which was part of the world-famous Nobelius Nursery. Swedish immigrant Carl Axel Nobelius started the nursery in 1886 and the park is preserved as a remnant of this historic enterprise, with many specimens of trees once stocked by the nursery.
The Emerald Museum, set within Nobelius Gardens, tells the story of Emerald's colourful past through memorabilia, photographs, documents, contemporary records and family histories. Cr Ross said the community consultation process included seeking feedback from all key stakeholders including visitors, surrounding residents, local businesses and community groups. The council owns and manages Emerald Lake Park with help from Friends of Emerald Lake Park. A volunteer committee manages Emerald Museum and Nobelius Heritage Park on the council's behalf. "The precinct operates through collaborative efforts between council, businesses, and community, so it makes sense that the vision
for its future is a shared one," Cr Ross said. There'll be a community engagement forum at the Emerald Lake Park Environment Centre from 1pm to 2.30pm on Saturday 4 August. The Friends of Emerald Lake Park will host a free community barbecue prior to the forum, from 12.30pm to 1pm. Bookings are required for catering and planning purposes and can be made at https:// goo.gl/RDUiKg. Consultation closes 5pm on Sunday 19 August. The council is expected to consider a draft strategic plan for adoption later this year. Visit to www.cardinia.vic.gov.au/elp to get involved.
Accidental acceleration By Derek Schlennstedt
A vehicle has mounted another when the driver hit the accelerator while parking in Olinda.
12393640-RC30-18
A vehicle has driven on to another vehicle in Olinda, after the driver accidentally hit the accelerator. Olinda Police attended the incident and Sergeant Andrew Herdman said it was miraculous that no one was injured. On Thursday, July, 2018, at about 12:45pm a female driver was parking her white SUV wagon in the car park off Parsons Lane, Olinda. While manoeuvring her car she accidentally hit the accelerator causing her vehicle to accelerate rapidly from her parking bay which was on an upper parking bay. Sgt Herdman said as a result the vehicle has shot off the upper level and onto the lower level where she has driven over the bonnet and onto the top of a small red coupe. The car has
then come to rest against a grey station wagon parked next to the red coupe. The coupe and station wagon were unattended at the time of the collision and according to police both owners were shocked and upset at the scene before them. The driver of the white SUV and her husband were uninjured, but all cars involved had to be towed away. The driver of the SUV underwent a preliminary breath test, which produce a negative result, though as a precaution the driver will be required to undergo a medical review. Speaking about the incident, Sgt Herdman said "it was an unfortunate accident where the driver could not explain how she has pushed the accelerator and not the brake." "It is just fortunate that no one was injured as that car park can become very busy with vehicle and pedestrian traffic."

Triple-zero hero
Watch and wait
With three people involved in an altercation in a fast food car park in Lilydale, it could have been a case of "where are the police when you need them?!" As it turned out, they were closer than you'd think. As our reporter was putting in a call to triple-zero on Tuesday 10 July, almost like magic a police officer flashed his badge. It turned out one of the three in the mix was an off-duty Lilydale officer who'd intervened to separate the other two and diffuse the situation. Within five or so minutes of the call to triple-zero, a divvy van with two more Lilydale officers was on the scene.
Following a couple of emails in response to our quest to find a fob watch's owner in last week's edition, the Mail uncovered further engraving on the gold pocket watch. There is one name engraved on the casing, and it appears to have been presented as a gift from work colleagues at Henry Berry and Co back in 1919. If these details ring a bell, please contact editor@mailnewsgroup.com.au.
Emerald: the place to be
Forget 'the dog ate my homework ... ' Local wildlife don't often become an excuse for tardiness, but one of the Mail reporters lay the blame for their late arrival squarely on Skippy's shoulders on Friday 13 July. They were driving to the office when they approached a stopped car with hazard lights on, and saw a kangaroo bouncing up the road. The roo was shortly followed by the car's driver, chasing it up the road on foot to ensure its safety. While they were doing their best to shepherd the roo off the main road and to freedom, a small traffic jam began to build and a number of other people took to the road to help. Finally after a number of minutes and a number of metres, the roo was able to escape down a side lane, hopefully to a far better place than on a main road.
Whoops! In our story about mates uniting for the Lilydale High School fire anniversary, we said the 26 November event in Yering would be held at 2am. Of course that should have read 2pm.
Rory's absence extended Upwey-Tecoma Football Netball Club took to Facebook after former Tiger Rory Sloan announced he'd re-signed with AFL club Adelaide for five more years. "It is with a heavy heart we must inform you that we lost out in the race to secure out-ofcontract free agent Rory Sloane for the 2019 season," the tongue-in-cheek post read. "In all seriousness, it's great to see how much Rory is loved by his teammates and his. "And clearly, in signing for five more years, the club means a lot to him as well." Hopefully he'll someday be back in the hills playing in the yellow and black.
Election campaign energy A Liberal campaign manager came up with a novel way to raise funds for the party's Monbulk candidate ahead of November's State Election. "From today Dan Andrews will give you $50 if you register on the government energy saver website," they wrote in a Facebook post. "To combat this blatant attempt at electoral bribery, I will register, then donate the $50 to my local Liberal campaign in Monbulk. "I recommend everyone does likewise, but if you live in a safe seat, direct the money to a key marginal campaign like Monbulk."
By Derek Schlennstedt Nominations are now open for this year's Emerald Citizen of the Year Awards. The awards aim to acknowledge local individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the Emerald community. Speaking to the 'Mail' Pat Buoncristian from the Emerald Village Committee, said anyone who lived close to Emerlad and had made a contirubtion to the town could be a possible nominnee. Ms Buoncristian said the nominee didn't necessarily have to live within the Township. "It's a judgement of what they've done for the emerald community; they might've come from cockatoo but have done an enormous contribution to the Emerald Township," Ms Buoncristian said. "It's not so much where they live but what they've done to help emerald." One of the most recent awardees was Peter Maloney, the previous president of the RSL who was presented with the citizen of the year award for his involvement in increasing the profile of the RSL and for organising Anzac celebrations. There are two awards - Citizen of the Year and Young Citizen of the Year - with young citizen of the year catering to people under the age of 25. The awards seek to recognise those who have shown positive leadership in making a significant contribution to the community. Talking about what prompted the awards, which are now in their tenth year, Ms Buoncristian, who is said that the township and

She invited everyone to contribute and nominate a person they feel has contributed toward making emerald the community it is today, though especially urged younger individuals to nominate friends. "The future of the community relies on younger people identifying with that community and we need to get young people involved in the community and this is one small way doing that and recognising the ones who are," she said. "So step outside of their comfort zone and some people."

IN BRIEF
Home town thriller By Derek Schlennstedt Dandenong Ranges-based crime writer Sandi Wallace's newest novel 'Into the Fog,' is the third thrilling instalment of her 'Rural Crime Files' series. Set in her hometown of Mount Dandenong, this thriller sees Melbourne journalist Georgie Harvey and Daylesford cop John Franklin risk everything in their race to find three young children missing in a wild storm and a long way from home. The novel is part of a series, which started in 2015 with Ms Wallace's davit award winning novel 'tell me why.' Ms Wallace said that while the book is part of a series it can still be read as a standalone and that readers would still be able to understand the plot without having read previous novels. "Each of the books can be read as standalone but it is a series too," she said. Without giving too much away about the plot, the novel is based on a missing person's mystery, which highlights the 'darker side' of the World Wide Web. Ms Wallace said her home town of Mount Dandenong was a perfect location set the story. "Mount Dandenong is my hometown with the best of both worlds: a beautiful country village in the hills, close enough to facilities and our family ... it's an ideal location for the police-camp-gone-wrong story," she said. The story centres on two protagonists a journalist from Melbourne and a Policeman from Daylesford who feel respoinsible when three children form Daylesford go missing. "Melbourne journalist Georgie Harvey is on hand when three children from Daylesford disappear from a police-run camp in the Dandenong Ranges," Ms Wallace said.
Author Sandi Wallace with her new book ''Into the Fog''. 182785 Picture: ROB CAREW "Daylesford cop John Franklin hears the news and is on secondment 200 kilometres away ... he feels responsible for the local kids and abandons his post to join the search." "Frustration and desperation mount as this storm intensifies, and they are pushed to the outer by local detectives. "Not go give too much away but they find cyber links to a serial
predator and another missing girl and risk everything in their race to avert tragedy." Ms Wallace will also be holding a book launch and conversation at Sooki Lounge on 18 August from 1-1:30pm with fellow Tasmanian historic crime writer Dr L.J.M. Owen. Her novel 'Into the Fog' will be released on 17 August.
Making math fun Pre-schoolers and their families in Monbulk can improve their maths skills through a new early years' program. Member for Monbulk, James Merlino MP, announced on 4 July that early childhood educators at Lancaster, Monbulk and Sassafras Pre-school's will participate in Let's Count training, where they will learn practical tips and get access to best-practice resources to help them develop children's maths skills. "Maths is an essential foundation for learning and this is about making it fun for Monbulk children - a great step in getting them ready for school," Mr Merlino said. Let's Count helps early years' educators engage families and their children in counting, measuring and identifying patterns. The program also helps parents and carers to introduce maths to children in a fun, simple way that can be incorporated into everyday life. Educators from services all across Victoria from Lilydale to Werribee, Ballarat to Horsham - will have access to this training in Semester 2. About 500 educators in funded kindergartens will participate in the program over three years, and will help an estimated 14,000 preschoolers and their families. Let's Count was developed by Charles Sturt University Professor Bob Perry, Monash University Associate Professor Ann Gervasoni and The Smith Family to help children develop skills and a positive attitude towards maths before they begin primary school. The knowledge and skills that children develop in the early years are crucial for later in life. In 2015, a longitudinal evaluation of the Let's Count program showed it dramatically improved children's maths skills, with children who participated in the program performing better across a range of mathematical tasks than children not involved in the program. Monbulk families are also benefiting from the Government's landmark $202.1 million Education State Early Childhood Reform Plan to ensure kids are ready for kinder, ready for school and ready for life.

ENTERTAINMENT
Comedian’s swinging way By Casey Neill Comedian Damian Callinan is dancing his way around Australia and swinging by Montrose on the way. "I've been a full-time comedian and performer for just over 20 years now but prior to that I was a school teacher, so I was in the one room all day every day," he said. "I now probably spend about four months of the year on the road." He was last in Montrose about five years ago, he told the Mail. "I think I was actually there with my show The Merger, which is the story of a country footy club that recruits refugees," he said. Two days after Montrose show the film adaption of the show will premiere at the Melbourne International Film Festival. The Merger was a one-man show where Damian played nine characters - including two sock puppets. "This one's a little bit straighter," he said. "I do this show as myself, attempting to learn to swing dance inside four months. "I jump in and out of character. That's the nature of the shows I do." Damian transforms into a swing dancer from the USA deep-south and a French dance specialist. "I'm so used to performing on my own it's like muscle memory," he said. "You just change physicality as well as the voice that comes with it. "Dad was an actor as well but a school teacher primarily. "He used to read to me at night, but he'd do it in accents.
"I just thought that's what you did, I just thought it was a normal thing. "We'd talk in accents over the dinner table. "Later on I realised not everyone got their dad to read to them, and not everyone talks in accents." Dancing has also come naturally to Damian. "I did previously do a show called Cave to the Rave," he said. "It's more about the sociology of the dance floor and culminates with a story about me dancing at a party in the Dandenong Ranges. "I'd never learnt how to partner dance. "I was at a bar in Paris and my wife and I were sitting there and all of a sudden the band changed music. "Swing dancers appeared out of nowhere." He felt admiration and jealousy so sought out lessons when he returned home. The details sat on the fridge for two years, untouched. "That became the journey of the show," he said. "I learnt the dance and wrote the show at the same time." Dancer Genevieve will join him on stage. "Everything in the show is based slightly on reality but it's kind of an elaborate storytelling," Damian said. He said the part where he's abducted by swing-dancing aliens sets the scene for audiences to not believe a word of the show. "Most of it is kind of real, except for that aspect," he said. Swing Man is on at Montrose Town Centre from 8pm on Thursday 9 August. Visit www.yarraranges.vic.gov.au for tickets.
Damian Callinan is heading for Montrose.

Young artists in with a chance to grow By Derek Schlennstedt The newest exhibition from the growing Pains initiative is exhibiting at Burrinja. The latest exhibition called Express Yourself asks artists to do just that and express themselves in 50cm or less. Managing partner and Curator of the Growing Pains Initiative, Katherine Reynolds said the exhibit featured a vast array or genres and attracted a number of artists both locally and internationally. "our current exhibition is express yourself in 50cm or less, and we did an open call out for artists 30 and under to submit work 50cm and less in size," Ms Reynolds said. "We ended up with thirteen artists submit18 MAIL

ting about 45 artworks which pretty much fills the gallery "It's a really broad range of works, photography, pen drawing, a whole lot of paintings and one ceramic sculptural piece." "It's a really good broad range of styles and mediums and themes." Entries have been received from past exhibitors including Micaela Bumpstead and Sabrina Fraser as well as new exhibitors Lydia Walton who has sent her work from the United States of America, and Jason McIlroy, who will be the youngest ever exhibitor with Growing Pains. Growing Pains is an initiative dedicated to working with emerging artists under 30, and offers group and solo exhibitions, events,
workshops, advice and support. Ms Reynolds said it was important to support up-and-coming artists and give them the opportunity to exhibit their art in public spaces. "This was a good way to give artists a little extra push and helping hand to get something up on the walls," she said. "It helps to build an artist's confidence." "When we started growing pains we felt there were a real lack of opportunity for artists and a lack of affordable space. "For this exhibition we just wanted to give some younger artists the opportunity to exhibit some of their art." The exhibition is free and runs until July 22 at Burrinja Cultural Centre in Upwey.
In Wes Anderson's Isle of Dogs, an outbreak of dog-flu sweeps the Megasaki Prefecture of near-future Japan, causing Mayor Kobayashi (voiced by Kunichi Nomura) to banish all of the region's dogs to a garbage dump island. Six months later, Kobayashi's nephew Atari (Koyu Rankin) journeys to the island to search for his lost dog Spots. On its surface, Isle of Dogs is a fun, touching adventure about personal growth. Chief (Bryan Cranston), an embittered stray dog, reluctantly helps Atari in his quest to find his dog, and during their trek across the island, Chief discovers unknown depths of affection and responsibility within himself. The stop-motion animation (which Anderson previously employed in his 2009 film The Fantastic Mr Fox) is remarkably detailed and expressive, with some extraordinary attention to lighting and several energetic action-comedy sequences. Endearing and visually vibrant, Isle of Dogs nevertheless has some problematic cultural elements. The entire Japanese setting feels redundant. Much of the film takes place on the derelict, otherworldly title island, and any depictions of mainland Japan are a mishmash of basic cultural references, delivered with clear admiration but no subtlety. For that matter, it feels disingenuous for Anderson to have ostensibly set his film in Japan but cast its most prominent (dog) characters with English-speaking actors, and for the Japanese dog-lover resistance to be spearheaded by a white American student (Greta Gerwig). Isle of Dogs is a visually stunning, gratifying character drama muddied by some misguided cultural appropriation. - Seth Lukas Hynes mailcommunity.com.au

The last junior photo be taken on the steps of the pavilion prior to demolition, after the under16s game.
Hard work for the finals
It was a tight contest.
By Anthea Heagney
Kicking some goals By Casey Neill A mum’s footy match raised $14,000 for a grieving Upwey family. The Belly-Up Cup on Friday 13 July paid tribute to Leanne Gorry, who died late last month following a long battle with cancer. The mums of the Upwey-Tecoma and Belgrave juniors faced off at Belgrave Recreation Reserve in what was “a fabulous night”. Kylie Orr, one of the organisers, said the final fund-raising tally was still being calculated but praised “a phenomenal effort and a
grand atmosphere”. “I think the mums and the crowd had an amazing night and the party continued well into the morning,” she said. She kicked one of the Upwey side’s two goals. Leanne’s husband, Dale, and three children, Emma, Ben and Adam, were involved on the night. The money raised will support them. The clubs hope to make the match an annual event, to raise cash for different causes.

The little club that could - well, they did Olinda-Ferny Creek, one of the smallest clubs in AFL Yarra Ranges, sits on top of the football and A-grade netball ladders as teams prepare for the season's final seven rounds. The league's first division took a week off for the Vic Championships on Saturday 14 July. OFC won the football and netball senior premierships last season and president Ian Taylor said the club drew strength from a small, dedicated community and firmly embraced family values. Taylor also acknowledged the strong support from local businesses, particularly the Monbulk Bowls Club. The president said the bowls club recognised the strong work OFC did in the Olinda and Ferny Creek communities and recently made a significant donation for new gym equipment. OFC, with help from the junior club, recently spent $40,000 on a new colour scoreboard. Taylor said that two years ago the club raised another $40,000 to ensure the girls were playing netball on the best possible surface.

Monbulk Junior Football Club is getting to the pointy end of the competition now, with finals fast approaching. Most teams travelled to Woori Yallock to tackle strong opposition. Some wins, some losses, but all heads held high as the players worked their footy skills, enjoying the game after a school holiday break. Under-9s The side played a full ground today so had to run a lot and kick long. Players did a great job of using the space well, were quite skilful and put their opponents under a lot of pressure. The best players were Oscar, Zac, Ava, Taj, and Kale. Under-10s It was a slow three quarters from the team maybe school holidays wore them out! They defended well all day and sparked up in the last quarter to run over the top of a good Woori side. Will, Angelique and Benjamin were among the best players. Under-11s Woori Yallock 4.9.33 d Monbulk 2.1.13 The side started a little slow but gradually gained confidence and contended strongly. Two goals through and strong team work got the team back in the game. Best: Tom, Archie, Hamish and James. Under-12s Woori Yallock 10.15.75 d Monbulk 2.4.15 The boys worked hard and never gave up. They were against a quality opposition that were all big boys. The side won on the day for effort and how hard the players tried. It won the third and ran the game out well. Best: Jason, Jacob, Tahi, Lucas and Noah. Under-14 Blue Monbulk 9.8.62 d Woori Yallock 1.2.8 Coming up against a bottom-age team was something that the side talked about before the game. The players were told it wasn't about the opposition but about them. They stayed true to the task and got the result. Best: Nick, Logan, Jessie, Camden and Alex McD. Under-14 Green Belgrave 5.5.35 d Monbulk 1.4.10 Windy but sunny conditions resulted in a very close-fought game. The Hawks didn't get the victory but their effort was first-rate. Best: Ruby, Jack, Time, Jonah and Moe. Under-14 girls Bye. Under-16s Monbulk 21.20.146 d Woori Yallock 0.1.1 The boys had good competition in the first quarter but after that the opposition's pressure dropped and the boys had a free run. They worked hard all game, charged the ball and stuck to their structures. Best: Josh, Harry, Gabe, Jake and Toby. Under-18 girls Chirnside Park 4.10.34 d Monbulk 4.6.30 The side came up against a very physical and motivated opposition and in windy conditions found it hard to transition and use its opportunities. The girls fought strongly, and with a little bit of luck would have got a deserving win. There is one more game until finals and the team is focussed on giving its all in the next game. Best: Tahlia, Bec, Alisha and Estella. mailcommunity.com.au

Anyone could win it, really By Cameron Hutchison Round 12 saw Division 2 on show as Division 1 had a bye. The sun was shining at most venues and the fog hit Yea. There were some interesting results which have now left the competition wide open with only six rounds left. Division 2 Seniors Football Seville 21.19.145 d Yarra Glen 8.11.59 Seville are now outright ladder-leaders after a dominating performance over Yarra Glen. Seville kicked with the advantage of the breeze in the first and made the most of it, kicking 7.5 to 1.1. Yarra Glen could not get their hands on the ball at all in the first quarter. In the second you would have thought the game might have changed, but Seville were on a roll and kicked another 5.3 to 1.4 to have a huge lead of 63 points at half time. Seville continued with the momentum and increased their lead to 73 points at three quarter time. Yarra Glen put up a small comeback in the last kicking 3.3 but it was Seville's day with a huge 86-point win and a hold of top spot. Seville best: M. Cecere (3 goals), J. Cecere (3 goals), J. Fraser (6 goals), P. Bailey, D. Broadway (3 goals), N. O'Keefe (2 goals). Yarra Glen best: A. Smith, C. Tait (1 goal), W. Goodwin, J. Schille (2 goals), R. Smith, J. Donald. Alexandra 18.6.114 d Powelltown 8.1.49 Alexandra have now kicked clear of Powelltown and sit sixth on the ladder just one win out of fourth spot. Alexandra got off to a good start, kicking 6.3 to one straight and had Powelltown chasing its tail all day. The second quarter was even, with both sides kicking 3 goals but Alexandra still had control. A 4-goal to 2 third quarter extended the lead to 46 points as they turned for home.
Alexandra were clean with the footy and did not waste any opportunities in front of goal in the last kicking 5.1 to 2 goals to keep their finals hopes alive. Alexandra best: C. McKay, S. Steiner (1 goal), M. Steiner (3 goals), C. Heaslip, M. Whitbourn, B. Norris (6 goals). Powelltown best: S. Halliday, J. Garthwaite, B. Traynor (1 goal), M. McArthur (1 goal), L. Middlemast, J. Iacono. Gembrook Cockatoo 24.18.162 d Kinglake 14.5.89 Gembrook share fourth spot but are fifth on percentage and are one win ahead of Alexandra in sixth spot after a good win over Kinglake. Kinglake got the early break, kicking 6.3 to 3.5 and went into the second quarter with a 16-point lead. Gembrook had a 37-point turnaround in the second quarter. The momentum was certainly in Gembrook's favour as they piled on another 6.4 to 4 goals to go into the last with a very comfortable lead. They turned up the burners in the last, kicking 8.6 to 3 goals to make the win even sweeter. Gembrook Cockatoo best: D. Volta, D. McPherson (2 goals), T. Lockyer (5 goals), J. Van Der Zwart (1 goal), L. Failla (5 goals), T. Whytcross. Kinglake best: J. Butterworth, M. McAllister, J. Hamilton (2 goals), J. Nixon (4 goals), M. Newton, J. Crowe (1 goal). Yarra Junction 13.13.91 d Yea 10.7.67 Yarra Junction are outright third on the ladder after a good win over fourth-placed Yea. The first quarter was a cracker, with both sides kicking 4.3 and it was start all over again in the second. Yarra Junction got the jump and kicked 6.5 to 2 goals to set up a half-time lead of 29 points. The last quarter was a grind with neither side getting any breaks but Yarra Junction had done enough early to get the win. Yarra Junction best: T. Wheeler (5 goals), D. Brookes, C. Hoare (1 goal), P. Cubbin, J. Welch,
L. Hoffman. Yea best: R. Aldous (1 goal), H. Jarvie, A. McCarthy (1 goal), A. Walsh, B. Clements, J. Carroll (2 goals). Under-18s Football Gembrook Cockatoo 13.5.83 d Upwey Tecoma 11.6.72 Gembrook Cockatoo are sitting third with Upwey in sixth after they got home in a tight one by 11 points. Gembrook had the slimmest of advantages at quarter time by just 2 points. They kicked away in the third with 4 goals to one and the margin was now looking out of Upwey's reach. Upwey played a different brand of footy in the fourth and kicked 4.1 to 1 goal but they left their run too late and Gembrook got away with the win. Gembrook Cockatoo best: J. Tilly (5 goals), S. Lamble, A. Firrito (2 goals), M. Watson, L. Ramage (1 goal), M. Van Schilt. Upwey Tecoma best: A. Grenda (9 goals), B. Burrows, R. Cheslett, A. Bartils (1 goal), K. Weiser, K. Bell. Division 2 A-Grade Netball Kinglake 98 d Gembrook Cockatoo 10 Kinglake shares top spot with Yea but are second on percentage after another win on Saturday. They started the game off well, shooting 23 goals to 2 and were never in doubt from there on. Another solid performance in the second half as they were consistent with their goal shooting in the last two quarters and deserve their spot on the ladder. Kinglake best: Taryn Jennings, Alice Waack, Monique Nagle (46 goals). Gembrook Cockatoo best: Jemah McInerney, Michelle Skilton, Lainey Williams. Yea 72 d Yarra Junction 33 Yarra Junction have a firm hold on fourth spot while Yea are still sitting top of the ladder. Yea got a handy start, shooting 19 goals to
8 in the first and it was going to need to be an inspirational effort form Yarra Junction from here if they hoped to get a win. A 21 goals to 8 second quarter by Yea was now going to make it extremely difficult. Yea maintained the pressure in the third and their lead was 35 goals at three quarter time. The last quarter was a bit tighter but Yea were always in control. Yea best: Melissa Martinov (51 goals), Megan Leatham, Samantha Coppinger. Yarra Junction best: Mia Motteram, Courtney Lever, Amelia Rose Michelle (11 goals). Powelltown 59 d Alexandra 48 Powelltown shares fifth spot with Yarra Glen who sit in sixth after their win over Alexandra by 11 goals.

The last quarter was the same as the first, no one could get the advantage. Powelltown best: Olivia Caneva (35 goals), Nicole Hajder (24 goals) Jacqueline Darwall. Alexandra best: Olivia Twining, Lauren Steyger (27 goals), Louise Chapple (21 goals).

MOTORING
A Halen Van on the road.
Each van is custom-built.
Custom-built for the road Halen Vans are builders of fully custom-built off-road caravans in Lilydale. The company was established in 2011 when Jason Francis, after many years in the industry, together with two other partners, decided to go out on his own. Jason, a mad Van Halen fan, decided that as a tribute to his idols the company name would have to be Halen Vans. All Halen Vans are custom-built. Halen Vans works with its customer to come up with a design that suits their individual needs and customers are fully involved with the build process. From when the chassis arrives, customers go in and speak to qualified cabinet mak-
ers about their design needs and cabinetry is made to suit. All vans are fully off-road with choices of independent trailing arm or air bag s suspension, the latter being popular due the fact that you can level the van from left to right and up and down with the flick of a switch. They are fully self-sufficient with solar panels and the choice of either lead crystal or lithium batteries. Last year, Jason and his wife Bec took their van with four of their customers vans and did the Tanami Track, a heavily corrugated track between Alice Springs, NT, and Halls Creek, WA. The vans handled the conditions beautifully and also had the convenience of being able
to use all their appliances including the airconditioner without being plugged into power or using a generator. The vans were equipped with solar panels and inverters to utilise the sun's energy to charge the batteries, therefore power was not an issue. Halen Vans also does all servicing and repairs of all makes and models of vans. For anyone who needs an upgrade or has damaged their van, Halen Vans is happy to help out with a quotation or suggestions. The company has also fitted out numerous horse floats and trucks. Call on 9738 7133 or visit Halen Vans at 42 Industrial Park Drive, Lilydale.
The vans are customised for each customer.
Winter adventure awaits with a vanguard of cosiness To help warm the van, travellers should park in the sun as long as possible during the day and draw the curtains just before sunset. They should lay additional rubber matting on their groundsheet to keep the cold off their feet. Caravaners should check that all tyres, including spares, have the right tread levels and pressure for driving on wet or icy roads. Those heading to cold country should add anti-freeze to their radiator, wrap external pipes in insulation to prevent any freezing or damage from cracking, and make sure their gas supply is topped up as they'll use more during cold weather due to heating requirements. It's worth investing in walls for awnings for
protection from wind and cold weather. This also adds a layer of insulation to the side where the awning is attached. Travellers should consider draught skirts for underneath the van to reduce the impact of wind and rain. For safe caravanning, VicRoads recommends checking that coupling and safety chains are in good condition; brakes and external lights are working; wheels, bearings, tyres and suspension are in good condition; and tyres are of the same construction on all wheels and have a tread depth of 1.6 millimetres or more. VicRoads said it was also a good idea to have a mechanic regularly service the caravan.
Travellers should also check that their car has enough power to tow the caravan; is regularly serviced and is in good mechanical condition; has good rear vision when the caravan is attached; and has the correct towbar for the type and weight of the caravan. VicRoads advises that towing decreases acceleration and braking ability and drivers should be aware of this, especially when approaching corners. They should leave more space than usual between them and the vehicle in front, and allow extra time and space if they are turning into traffic. Reversing with a caravan is difficult, so drivers should practise reversing in a safe environment with someone to guide them.
1187559-RC24-15
A little maintenance is key before leaving for a winter caravan adventure. The RACQ advises to check all seals, doors and windows to make sure the van is watertight and draught-proof. Caravan owners could even invest in insulation if their van doesn't already have it installed in the roof, floor and walls. Travellers should hang winter-weight curtains on the windows and place a 'draught snake' at the door. Switching to winter blankets, doonas and sheets, and even adding a woollen underlay to the mattress can make a big difference. The RACQ advises placing thick rugs on the floor if the van isn't carpeted.

ALL REVVED UP
The automotive specialists Omega Automotive Services Centre and Transmission Specialists have been operating in Upwey for 12 years, following 17 years at Wandin North. Business owners David Clark has 30 years' experience in the automotive industry, while Lisa has 15 years' experience. Not only is David a qualified motor mechanic, but he's also a highly qualified automatic transmission specialist. David is a member of the VACC Automotive Transmission Specialist committee, so he receives up-to-date inforamation. Due to the industry changing rapidly, David and his staff attend frequent seminars to keep their training at the absolute peak. They also have the latest workshop equipment to communicate with all modern vehicles. "Most people think having your vehicle serviced includes an automatic transmission service," David said. "Unfortunately, this is not the case. "Just like you service your engine every six months or 10,000 kilometres, your automatic transmission service should be serviced periodically - from 12 months or 20,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first." A transmission service involves replenishing the oil and filter, just like your engine. "As the sump is removed, this generally enables us to recognise a problem before it becomes serious or costly," David said. "You will prolong the life of your transmission, improve vehicle reliability and save money in the future. "Need a little more motivation? Ask us how much it would cost for a complete transmission rebuild - you might be shocked."
