Full steam ahead Steam trains will soon return to the Yarra Valley for the first time in 40 years. Both side of state politics in the past week pledged $3.75 million in funding to finish restoring the 14-kilometre Yarra Valley Railway between Yarra Glen and Healesville. Visitors will be able to ride an historic steam train between the towns, stopping at restored railway stations and historic work sheds, as well as wineries and a museum. The trains could carry up to 600 passengers and more than 250,000 visitors are expected to ride the tourist train each year. The railway would also connect to the Yarra Valley Rail Trail so cyclists could board the train at various points along the route. The Yarra Valley Railway organisation expects the project to generate $30 million for the local economy and create about 120 jobs. President Brett Whelan said men and women of different age groups had been involved, and he’d seen great social benefits. “It’s a beautiful thing,” he said. The Federal Government and community funded stage one. Local residents, community groups and businesses raised $2.74 million towards the project and more than 500 volunteers donated more than 70,000 hours in work to it last year alone. The State Government donated more than 5000 tonnes of stony ballast and 17.5 kilometres of steel track from its level crossing removal project. The first stage of the railway project is almost finished, including the restoration of station platforms, buildings and railway yards at Yarra Glen and Tarrawarra Railway Stations, 16 railway bridges and nine kilometres of track. The second and final stage would include redeveloping the historic Healesville Railway Station precinct and upgrading the remaining four kilometres of railway track and bridges from Healesville to Tarrawarra Estate. Labor candidate for Eildon, Sally Brennan, said the commitment was a massive shout-out to all the volunteers who’d worked so hard to bring the project to this point. Eildon MP Cindy McLeish said: “What
Brett Whelan, Sally Brennan, Andy Findlay, Roly Deighton, Sam Whiteside, Will Farr and Andrew Blair at the Healesville station. makes this project so special is that it is Australia's largest volunteer infrastructure project.” “Credit should go to the committed volunteers who are lovingly and painstakingly working to restore the rail line, rolling stock and train stations.” Volunteer Will Farr said it was obvious that
the community wanted the project, because it had been working on it from the ground up. “It’s fantastic news,” he said about the funding commitment. “It would allow us to finish the job, finish the fantastic work we’ve been doing already.” Roly Deighton said there was still plenty to do.

“But I think we’ve broken the back of it,” he said. “There’s been a lot of sweat, a bit of blood and quite a few tears.” Andrew Blair said the volunteer team was like a bit family, and Sam Whiteside agreed. “We’ve all got a common goal and it brings a lot of people together,” he said.

Feathers might fly...
The editor’s desk It's a sad day when the thought of biting into a ripe, juicy strawberry invokes feelings of fear. Farmers fearing for their livelihoods is another heart-breaking consequence of a foolish and selfish decision. It's been less than two weeks since authorities first revealed that consumers had found sewing needles inside strawberries from Queensland stocked in supermarkets across the country on 13 September. It's been a tumultuous period for growers and shoppers alike. Copycats heightened the fear with isolated "pranks" on strawberries and other fruits, and false reports hampered police efforts to find the culprits. Local strawberry farmers met in the Yarra Valley to share their fears about the season ahead. Their fruit is ripe for the picking and due to hit supermarkets and greengrocers
in coming weeks. But will anybody buy them? Will the supermarkets even stock them? Only time will tell. I wonder whether the "pranksters" considered the consequences of their actions whether they intentionally set out to cause mass panic and cripple an industry, or a small-time lark (albeit a sick one) got out of control. Either way, our strawberry growers need to see light at the end of the tunnel. The public support for them spreading over social has surely been a good confidence boost and hopefully that support continues at the check-out. It will be interesting to see whether there'll be any long-term effects once the dust settles. Will we be cutting up fruit for fear of needles forever more? - Casey Neill

I noticed the amazing heavy rainy cloud hanging over the water as we were crossing the dam wall. It looked spectacular and atmospheric above a streak of blue sky.

IN BRIEF Candy man
Two years closed Badger Weir Picnic Ground is still closed awaiting repairs, two years after storms tore through the site. Eildon MP Cindy McLeish put forward fresh questions about a tender process for reconstruction work in Parliament this month. It was the third time she’d asked Environment Minister Lily D’Ambrosio about an expected re-opening date for the park. In April, the minister said in a letter to Ms McLeish that Parks Victoria aimed to open tender for construction before the middle of the
year, with a view to re-open the picnic ground later in the year”. But Ms McLeish said that the State Government’s public tender website indicated no tender had been awarded. “With tenders not even awarded there is no chance that Badger Weir will re-open before Christmas,” she said. “Our community has been misled into believing Badger Weir would open this year. “It’s the government’s responsibility to maintain and repair community assets in a
timely manner, and to keep the community informed about the progress. “Badger Weir is a special place for locals and for visitors to get out and enjoy our beautiful natural environment.” Ms McLeish said many people had contacted her, concerned it was still off-limits so long after it suffered damage. Under Parliamentary rules the minister has 30 days to respond to Ms McLeish’s questions. The Mail contacted the State Government but did not receive a response.
Police charged a Warburton man with theft after he allegedly stole a candy machine from a Pakenham business. Earlier this year, Cardinia Eyewatch Facebook page posted a CCTV image in relation to the theft of a gumball machine from a business in Pakenham. Through the huge attention the image received, police arrested a 20-year-old man from Warburton and charged him with theft. He will appear before the Dandenong Magistrates’ Court later in the year. On 15 April at 3.45pm, CCTV allegedly captured the man and two other individuals leaving the Pakenham Place shopping centre on Main Street carrying the bulky machine.
Burning barns Vandals set fire to a Maroondah Highway barn business in Lilydale. Yarra Ranges CIU is investigating the incident at Aussie Made Garages and Barns, which occurred about 4.20am on Sunday 16 September. Police said the fire was deliberately lit and caused extensive damage. Seven CFA units attended the scene. They urged anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Car-smashing spree About 20 youths went on a vandalism spree through Lilydale’s streets. They smashed driver’s side mirrors on six cars in Lilydale, and Yarra Ranges CIU is investigating. Police said the incidents occurred between midnight and 1am on 16 September in Wotan Court, Kingsbury Lane and Benito Court. CCTV captured about 20 youths in the area at the time.
Boozy bandits Thieves used secateurs to remove a dog door from a glass window and break into a Mooroolbark home. Police said they entered the Andrew Street house between 2pm and 3pm on 14 September. The bandits fled with a bottle of bourbon, a camera and jewellery.
Healesville residents and visitors are invited to share their thoughts and ideas for a re-design of Green Street.
From Green Street to easy street Healesville residents and visitors are invited to share their thoughts and ideas for a re-design of Green Street to make the area more pedestrian friendly. The re-design proposal, which is now open for consultation until 22 October following an extention, features a number of ideas for the area between the Green Street/Maroondah Highway intersection and Taber Lane. The options all include a pedestrian plaza on Green Street's western side and options on how to filter the traffic. These include a two-way traffic flow through the current north-bound lane, having one-way traffic flow through the north-bound lane or having one-way traffic entering from the Maroondah Highway.
Another alternative put forward includes retaining the existing conditions with separated lanes around the public toilets. Ryrie Ward Councillor Fiona McAllister encouraged residents to fill out the survey and share any ideas. “So many of our residents and visitors travel Green Street each day - whether they’re walking to Coronation Park, visiting a cafe or shop or heading to the Healesville Market at the River Street carpark,” she said. “This is an important public space for the town, so we need to get it right. “All the contributions we get through our survey will help us decide on the best options for the community, and we’ll take the suggestions into any design that follows.” Already the design has garnered attention and criticism from Healesville Action Group
(HAG) spokesman John Anwin. He said the changes impeded CFA requirements and could not be supported until that was rectified. “There is a requirement for unobstructed northbound access across Nicholson Street in Green Street - that must be retained,” he said. “Healesville Action Group is totally opposed to the provision of a plaza and any changes to existing vehicle movements into or out of Green Street at the Nicholson Street intersection, at least until the future relocation of the CFA station is completed and an alternative provision is made for the safe vehicular movement across and into/out of Nicholson Street for north/south bound traffic.” For more information, to view concept designs and to fill out the survey, visit yrc.vic.gov. au/greenstredesign.

Cheers for solar savers sions by more than 100 tonnes and save nearly half a million dollars in lifetime benefits. “When they first came in and showed us this project, it just made complete sense," Four Pillars manager Cameron Mackenzie said. "It was funded in such a logical way that it made it easy for us to make the decision and try and be responsible with our power usage, to at least try and contribute back or be a bit more sustainable. “Two of our stills are electrically heated, and I think it’s fair to say that when they’re up and running early in the morning, nobody in the street can cook a piece of toast. “They draw a lot of power so for us, covering this whole roof with solar panels will run these stills comfortably and hopefully take a lot of pressure off the local grid.” Sustainable Melbourne Fund chief execu-
tive Scott Bocskay said Victoria was the fastest growing EUA market in Australia. "It is great to have councils like Yarra Ranges joining in to support the local business community,” he said. “A project like that financed with Four Pillars Gin Distillery is a local example of business leading the way; driven by critical business needs to better manage business input costs." The Four Pillars system will cost $90,000 and is expected to be operational by Christmas. The program has caught the interest of other local businesses, including Aurrum Aged Care and Hoogies of Yarra Glen, who were at the distillery for the announcement.

IN BRIEF Crime's on the decline
Strawberry simple
Crime is down 7.8 per cent in the Yarra Ranges, according to latest figures. The Crime Statistics Agency on Thursday 20 September released the Victorian recorded crime statistics for the year ending 30 June. In the Yarra Ranges, the number of offences recorded during the 12 months dropped from 8538 to 7868, or by 7.8 per cent. There were 4968.7 offences recorded per 100,000 population, down from 5438.8 during the year prior. State-wide, the number of offences dropped by 4.9 per cent and the offence rate declined 7 per cent. Burglaries dropped 16.4 per cent and theft 8.5 per cent. In the Yarra Ranges, the decrease in burglaries was more than 26 per cent, and the drop in thefts was more than 17 per cent, from 2576 to 2120. Drug use and possession was down to 389 offences from 541 the previous year, a 28 per cent decrease. Property damage offences in the Yarra Ranges increased 15 per cent in the 12 months to 30 June compared to the year prior, against the Victoria-wide 4 per cent drop. But 794 recorded offences was still well below 913 in the year to 30 June 2016 and 1196 in 2009. In the Yarra Ranges, arson offences increased from 75 to 138, but there was a similar increase from 2015 (79) to 2016 (138).

Keep the valley fruit fly-free
Bridget Vallence, John Schurink and Matthew Guy support Yarra Valley strawberry farmers. He said one of the problems was finding out where the contamination was happening in the supply chain. “It’s not just about the growers putting metal detectors in to fix it,” he said. “I don’t know what is going to happen with all this needle stuff and don’t want to give the publicity to the copy-cats out there.” Another Yarra Valley stalwart is Coldstream’s Sam Violi, who has been growing strawberries for almost four decades.
“We are four to five weeks away from our season, so right now we are hoping the culprits are caught before then,” he said. “We will have sweet delicious strawberries in a few weeks. “It is worrying for the growers, particularly as many are small family concerns, who will have crops ready for picking soon but have this stuff hanging over their heads. “There is a lot of talk about bio-security and putting metal detectors in, but maybe that’s an issue at the store level, not the growers."
Homeless hotspots in the Yarra Ranges By Derek Schlennstedt
M O F RN R IN EE G TE A
The Council to Homeless Persons (CHP) has released a homelessness heat map which has revealed the number of people sleeping rough in the Yarra Ranges. But charities fear the reality is worse than the figures. The interactive map, based on Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data, breaks down the types of homelessness experienced in electorates across Victoria into sleeping rough; crisis accommodation; couch surfing; boarding house; and severely-crowded dwellings. The numbers, based on the latest Census figures, showed that that while many people did “sleep rough“ in Melbourne, those in the outer suburbs usually faced other, less visible, forms of homelessness. In the Evelyn electorate, 136 individuals identified as homeless, with 43 per cent of them identified as living in crisis accommodation. Another 23.5 per cent were in severely-crowded dwellings and 20 percent were couch surfing. Only seven per cent identified as sleeping rough. The Monbulk electorate painted a similar picture, with 41 percent of homeless people couch surfing and 32 per cent in crowded dwellings.
According to the statistics, 11 percent were sleeping rough. Yarra Ranges charity Holy Fools feeds and supports homeless people and CEO Neal Taylor said he was concerned that the situation was worse than the statistics showed. “I think it paints a broad stroke of what’s happening but I don’t think it’s incredibly accurate,” he said. “Even though the Census did its best to equip people, including myself, to help homeless people to be counted and get their input into the census, there were still lots of people missed. “I think it’s a lot worse than that.” Mr Fools said he was unsurprised that more people were couch surfing than sleeping rough. “I suppose the ratio wasn’t very surprising we’ve already said that rough sleepers are not the primary groups out here,” he said. Homelessness support service Anchor's chief executive, Heidi Tucker, also spoke to the Mail about the situation in the Yarra Ranges. "For me, the overcrowding is just as alarming, as in those environments people are subject to assault, abuse," she said. “I think the numbers themselves, it doesn’t really show you the whole picture. “What we know about couch surfing is they can have a big fight with the people they are
staying with and they’ll have to go down to the oval and sleep there that night. “There are a lot of people circling in and out of homeless.” The Council to Homeless Persons released the map in the lead-up to State Election in November and is lobbying for a committment to 3000 new social housing properties per year for 10 years. The organisation’s policy manager Kate Colvin said half of the new properties must be one or two bedrooms to address the “critical shortage“ of homes for single people. Mr Taylor and Ms Tucker shared that sentiment, and said there was a clear need for crisis accommodation in the Yarra Ranges. “There’s virtually none,” Mr Taylor said. Ms Tucker said: “There’s certainly no refuge or crisis accommodation, so if we have people in the valley we generally have to use caravan parks or motels." In July, the Mail reported on a Lilydale affordable housing project that received a $200,000 boost. It stated that the State Government funds would help Yarra Ranges Council to further plan a proposal to create more social housing in Lilydale using land surplus to the its needs.

Yarra Valley residents with fruit trees should be on the lookout for the Queensland fruit fly (QFF) over spring, to help prevent its spread into the area. The QFF is active year-round but populations increase in spring when temperatures rise. They can remain active during autumn and winter in warmer weather. Yarra Ranges Mayor Len Cox said everyone had a role to play in stopping bug's spread. "Residents with fruit trees can prune their trees to a reachable height, harvest fruit quickly and keep an eye out, as the fruit fly looks for ripe fruit to breed," he said. Pruning fruit trees in gardens to a manageable size can help to control QFF. Smaller fruit trees are easier to implement fruit fly controls on and are more manageable for home gardeners. Infestation can occur when fruit on high branches is un-harvested. The best time of year to prune fruit trees is in late winter and early spring, when trees are generally dormant. Picking fruit before it falls from the tree is another way to help. Damaged and fallen fruit can become a refuge for fruit fly maggots. Anyone returning to the valley with fruit grown in areas where QFF exists should leave it behind, eat it all or cook it. Infested fruit or vegetables can be microwaved to kill maggots before disposal. Alternatively, fruit and vegetables can be frozen for two days to kill maggots and larvae. The QFF was detected in the Yarra Valley last summer. Private landowners then put containment and eradication treatments in place. "It's important that infested fruit is destroyed, so that fly larvae don't develop into adults and spread across the valley," Cr Cox said. The QFF is a horticultural pest that lays eggs in fruit and vegetables. The damaged fruit and veggies rot inside while the eggs mature into larvae, making the produce inedible and unsaleable.

Strawberries are in the news for all the wrong reasons at the moment but there is a simple message from one of the Yarra Valley’s most experienced growers. “Buy them, wash them, cut them and eat them,” Victorian Strawberry Growers Association president John Calle said. At a growers meeting in Seville on Wednesday 19 September, State Opposition Leader Matthew Guy offered his support to Yarra Valley strawberry farmers and pledged a bi-partisan approach to the crisis facing the industry. “I intend to introduce a new offence in the Crimes Act, carrying a mandatory three-year minimum jail term for anyone caught contaminating your fruit," he said. "We will also support the current government in putting together assistance packages for the industry and give the communities of the Yarra Valley a bi-partisan approach." Around 40 growers attended the crisis meeting and with their crop due to go to market next month their message was a simple one of “keep eating strawberries but dice them up”. Two local Liberal Party candidates, John Schurink for Monbulk and Bridget Vallence for Evelyn, were also at the meeting and offered their support to the growers. “The strawberry industry is a big part of our local economy, producing world-class fruit for both domestic and export markets,” Ms Vallence said. Mr Calle, from Wandin North, has been involved in Yarra Valley berries for more than 35 years.

Ahead of our Big SECOND Birthday
A course for confidence By Michael Doran Women with Disabilities Victoria is running a free six-day leadership program for young women with disabilities in Montrose and calling for applications. Two Yarra Ranges women, Lucy Ryan and Megan Dunne Risley, took part in the program earlier this year. Ms Ryan, who lives with multiple sclerosis, was unable to continue working and wanted to build her confidence to help with volunteering activities. “I volunteer for the MS Society and the CFA, which requires me to get out and ask people for money and I felt quite out of my comfort zone in doing that,” she said. “My friend recommended I do the course and it’s helped me get my confidence back.” Ms Dunne Risely has struggled with being social, so it was the chance to learn new skills and be part of a social group that motivated her to do the program. “When I was growing up and talking to new people and starting a conversation, I wouldn’t know what to say," she said. "I was shy and cautious of who I mixed with. "Since finishing the course I have done a total 180." Both Ms Ryan and Ms Dunne Risely have emerged from the program with increased confidence, new skills and the energy to want to change the lives of other young women with disabilities. “The program was very well structured and put together in such a caring way," Ms Ryan said.

"I’m sharing more on Facebook to advocate for people with disabilities to access services like transport. It’s a big issue. Ms Dunne Risely wants to get involved in events and sharing ideas about what kind changes needed to provide more opportunities for people with a disability. “It’s important that we voice our opinions and be more outspoken,” she said. WDV's community inclusion and women's empowerment program manager, Nadia Mattiazzo, said the program was successful because it was tailored to what the participants wanted to achieve. “We only have 12 in the group because we don’t want it to be too daunting and we want to bring each person along at their own pace," she said. “We accept them, we then write the program around them and give them time to take it all in. “These young women face all the usual barriers in life but living with a disability just adds a whole new layer. "They often experience isolation and to see them graduate and speak about their growth is a very emotional time." The program, supported by the Yarra Ranges and Knox councils and other community organisations, is open to women aged 15 to 25 with a disability who live, study, work or spend time in Knox or the Yarra Ranges. An information session will be held from 4pm to 5pm on Wednesday 3 October at Montrose Town Centre. Registration is via Bridget Jolly at WDV on bridget.jolley@wdv.org.au or 9286 7813.

Wandin through kids’ art

Tuesday, 25 September, 2018
Wandin North children used their artistic talents and feelings about their home to brighten up a shopping strip. Flowers, footballs, basketballs, leaves and fruit, birds and insects appear in the mosaic artwork beneath the tree outside the Bendigo Bank at the Wandin Shopping Precinct. Yarra Ranges Council commissioned local artist Catherine Byatt to co-ordinate the community art project with students from Wandin North Primary School, Wandin North Preschool, and Wandin Yallock Primary School. "I asked the children to think about what they love about living in Wandin and the Yarra Valley and to make small clay pieces to reflect their inspiration," she said. "We thought about the physical place around the base of the tree, favourite places, activities and opportunities available here, people, the flora and fauna. "Children from Prep to Grade 6 set about busily crafting the orchards and trees, ploughed fields, tesserae for the wide sky, mountains and hills, footy oval, cars, shops, houses and sections of the Warburton Highway." The students learnt about Wandin's endangered plant the bush pea, the growling grass
frog and the powerful owl. "Look closely and you may read evocative poetry from the Grade 5 and 6 students describing impressions of their town," Ms Byatt said. "Feel free to make a rubbing with pencil and paper of the Wandin sign, which was made by three-year-old children on the textured slabs." Mayor Len Cox said it was wonderful to see the students' creativity and innovation. "They've used some impressive techniques from sculpting to create the shapes in the tiles and carefully painted their work together," he said. "The mural tells a unique story about Wandin and what our future generations love about living here." Wandin Yallock Primary students have grown indigenous bush tucker plants from seedlings and will soon plant them around the base of the tree. These include yam daisies, lemon bottlebrushes, silver banksia and vanilla lily. The installation was part of the Wandin North Streetscape Project, which included consultation with the Wandin North Traders Group. mailcommunity.com.au
MATERNITY PUSH
Everyone wants maternity By Casey Neill We were overwhelmed with the response to our 8 September article about the push for maternity services at Healesville Hospital. So much so that we've decided to throw our support behind it. That article covered the recommendations of the Victorian Government Perinatal Inquiry. Over the coming weeks, in the lead-up to the 24 November State Election, we'll take a close look at just why the community is so vocal about returning maternity services to Healesville. We'll start next week with a chat to Healesville-based Yarra Valley Midwives. The private service started up in the town after maternity services left the hospital. Midwife Robyn Partington said the area was home to "a birthing population" rather than an ageing one, and had to travel to Box Hill or The Angliss for public birthing services. She'll speak about continuity of care, expanding admitting rights for private midwives to public hospitals and more. We'll share more about how this situation came to be, speak to many other people with ties to the issue, and even invite some to share their thoughts and feelings first-hand. We'll cover a public meeting that Save Healesville Hospital Action Group will be holding at The Memo from 7pm on Thursday 4 October. SHHAG spokesperson Jane Judd said the event would celebrate the services the group had maintained and call on the State Government and Opposition to explain their position on what still needs to be delivered, like the option of local birthing. "If you want local maternity options, this is your chance to be seen and heard before the State
Government election in November," she said. We also want to hear more from you: those of you who gave birth at Healesville, those of you who missed out on doing so and had to travel elsewhere. So many readers shared their stories on our Facebook page. Nikki Lee said both her children were born there, in 2001 and 2004. "The town and surrounding areas have become so much more populated since then, so I imagine there would be definitely be a need for birthing services at Healesville Hos-
pital," she wrote. Naomi Taylor's children, aged 8 and 10 years, were also born there. "It was a fantastic experience," she wrote. "When you consider the lack of options for families in the Yarra Ranges something needs to be done. "Women shouldn't be forced to travel for over an hour to get to a hospital." Lisa Lawther wrote that she'd be curious to know how many women were choosing free birthing without help, home birthing with a midwife, or birthing somewhere on the high-
way on the way to the Angliss or Box Hill. "I understand it may not be possible to cater for high-risk pregnancies and very sick babies, but there are so many uncomplicated pregnancies with women who are low risk, that could and should be support to birth locally," she said. Samantha Smith had two of her three children at Healesville. "I was shattered when I had to have my third at Box Hill," she wrote. "The anxiety that it caused me knowing I had to travel an hour to hospital whilst in labour was so bad."

More than a meal By Michael Doran Eight young volunteers living with a disability have been recognised in the Victorian Premier’s Volunteer Champions Awards. While in the program, the team would shop, prepare, cook and serve a delicious weekly lunch for older Yarra Ranges residents at Wandin Senior Citizens Centre. Ben, Terrie, Sarah, Dominique and Josh represented the group at an awards ceremony at Government House on Sunday 9 September, with Briony, Kaisha and Chelsea absent. Victorian Governor Linda Dessau presented them with the Teamwork Award, then it was into the garden for refreshments, pictures and socialising with the other winners. “It was a really special day,” Jessica DiPaola, from program organiser Interchange Outer East, said. “We were the only disability group, so it was just about the amazing voluntary contribution the group has made to the elderly citizens of the Yarra Valley.” The lunches came about when some of the young people heard the older residents were eating packaged meals at a day program and decided to do something better. They came up with the idea to cook lunch and hang out with the seniors, and that has blossomed into genuine friendships, with everyone looking forward to their weekly gatherings. Some of the older group have an Italian heritage so pasta is often on the menu, a dish the volunteers long ago mastered. After the plates are cleared away and washed, they play games, share stories and laugh at each other’s jokes. The group that won the award has moved on to other pursuits so a new team is in action. On the day of the Mail’s visit, Ms DiPaola had Steph, Simon, Dan and April hard at work

Shining a light on fight By Casey Neill
Dan and Step are happy with their work. in the kitchen and waiting on their guests. “The volunteers are totally reliable, always organised and it allows us to concentrate on providing a fun program for the senior citizens,” Yarra Ranges Social Support’s Terri Spencer said. “We know a healthy meal will be ready on time and it is something our people really look forward to each week.” While the meal is important, it is really a vehicle for the infectious energy and joy the young volunteers bring into these seniors’ lives.
The young people have gained confidence in their ability to reach out and help others, and by their actions have broken down some of the stereotypes surrounding disability. Their genuine care makes the older people feel very special and looked after. The elderly group goes by the name the Ripe Cherries, from a shared heritage of cherry farming in the Wandin area. “We have a few vacancies in the group so if anyone wants to join us please contact the Yarra Ranges Council for information,” Ms Spencer said.
Walkers will transform Lillydale Lake into a sea of glowing light in a bid to beat blood cancer. Wandin Rotary Club's Brian Hodgson organised the Thursday 27 September Light the Night event to support the Leukaemia Foundation. The twilight lantern walk will kick off at 5pm "We would like you to bring your families, friends and colleagues to shine a beautiful lantern of hope as we walk around the Lillydale Lake," Mr Hodgson said. Walkers carry a gold balloon to remember a loved one, white to reflect on their own blood cancer journey, or blue to support others. "I began my walk for Leukaemia to support a relative," he said. "Over many years we have shared many Light The Night walks together and enjoyed the company of others each with their own journeys. "One outcome of the night is that we raise money to change lives. "We need your help to add to the Leukaemia Foundation fund for urgently-needed medical research, to help more people survive and ultimately beat leukaemia, myeloma, lymphoma and other blood disorders."

Burn before it’s too late The burn-off window is closing at the fire season looms. CFA chief officer Steve Warrington highlighted the need to prepare properties ahead of an earlier, longer and, in some parts, more severe fire season than normal. "Across the state, we are witnessing low levels of rainfall and a build-up of fuel loads on the ground," he said. "These are conditions that could lead to a bad fire season. "The best way to defend your homes is to prepare before the fire danger period begins. "This includes cleaning up your gardens, your gutters and removing flammable waste from your yards. "Many property owners dispose of this waste with a burn-off, but consider alternative methods such as mulching, chipping or taking green waste to a transfer station." Mr Warrington said residents who wished to conduct burn-offs on their private properties needed to follow some basic rules. "Check weather conditions, monitor the wind, and follow local council laws and regulations," he said. "Before lighting up, register your burn-off." Mr Warrington advised leaving a three metre fire break around the fire, free from flam-
mable materials, and also highlighted the importance of communication. "It is important that as well as registering your burn-offs, you notify your neighbours that they may see smoke," he said. "False alarms take CFA crews away from real emergencies, can increase the risk to the community and can be very frustrating for our crews, many of whom are volunteers. "By registering your burn-off, any reports of smoke or fire will be cross-checked with the burn-off register to avoid unnecessary response of fire services." Landowners can register their burn-off with the Emergency Services Telecommunications Authority (ESTA) by calling 1800 668 511 or emailing burnoffs@esta.vic.gov.au. "When conducting burn-offs, remain alert and always have resources on hand to extinguish the fire," Mr Warrington said. "Check the weather, winds must be light and temperatures low. "Make sure you have sufficient water on hand at all times and fully extinguish the burn once completed. "Escaped burn-offs or those not conducted properly will result in you being liable for the consequences."
Healesville’s first Random Acts of Kindness week is on its way. Beechworth Bakery’s Kylie Bray said the idea for the project had been in her head for the past year or more. “It’s to bring the businesses together and celebrate the great people in the town,” she said. “We all know people who are more community-minded than most of us. “People who don’t fly their own flag but just get in there and do what’s needed to help others, like chop an extra load of wood for the elderly lady down the road etcetera. “Every community is better for having people like them.” Ms Bray wants the Healesville business community to show those good Samaritans how much they’re appreciated. The bakery is planning a month-long promotion, starting in October, asking people to nominate unsung heroes in the Healesville community – “people who not only deserve recognition but also a treat”. There’ll be a daily winner from Monday 5 to Sunday 11 November. “They’ll receive a fabulous pamper hamper made up of great treats and goods from local businesses to show the Healesville community’s appreciation. “Whoever has nominated one of the winners will receive a $25 gift card from us.” Ms Bray said a panel would choose the winners based on merit. She said organisers would buy items from local businesses for the hampers, and encourage those businesses to make an equivalent donation. Those businesses would be named in all promotions for the Random Acts of Kindness project, and their business card would go into the hamper.

Ken Deacon.
Green named for Eildon A Thornton farmer and tourist operator will contest the seat of Eildon at the State Election as a Greens candidate. Ken Deacon put his hand up ahead of the November poll. He visited the Alexandra and Rubicon area for holidays when he was a boy and was delighted when in 1975 he was appointed to Alexandra for his first appointment as a physical education teacher. After four years teaching at the Bogong school camp, Mr Deacon was appointed to the Rubicon School Camp Outdoor Centre. He's been farming cattle and running Rubicon Valley Riding with partner Di Robb for almost 30 years, while raising three daughters. Mr Deacon said he was passionate about the need to develop Eildon, Alexandra and the Rubicon as prime tourist destinations and the potential of eco and forest tourism as an economic mainstay in the region. He is distressed about the impact of widespread clear-fell logging on biodiversity and on a potentially-vibrant tourist industry. "Intensive logging in the forest has had a huge impact on our family business," Mr Deamailcommunity.com.au
con said. "There are no more multi-day rides, as the places we rode through have gone. "Where we once rode through pristine forest is now logging coups, and regenerated forest is often choked with blackberries. "There has been a lack of consultation with the local community about the destruction of the forest and the damage to the waterways. "Eildon is a popular tourist destination, for waterways, fishing, spectacular ash forests, hiking, mountain biking, four-wheel driving, local markets and small rural towns. "The protection of these features is essential for the long-term future of our tourism industry and the well-being of our community." Mr Deacon said he'd work to ensure the area's natural beauty was protected. "I will also work to bring about more frequent and accessible public transport within the region, and improved mental health services," he said. "I will push for policies to better protect water catchments and investigate ways of boosting jobs and housing for young people."

IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT…
Spinning a yarn By Michael Doran The Healesville Spinners and Weavers are a multi-craft group whose common bond is creating beautiful things from natural fibres. “We call it fibre-craft and we start off with a fleece then clean, dye and spin it into yarn on our wheels," the group’s secretary Lesley Wilkinson told the Mail. "After that you can knit, crochet or weave with it to make whatever you fancy." Nine of this very congenial group set-up their spinning wheels for a working exhibition at the Healesville Library on Tuesday 11 September, where there's an extensive selection of their finished products and history on display. “We use wool or fibres from sheep, alpacas, goats, camels and rabbits, with some beautiful fine hair coming from angora rabbits," Ms Wilkinson said. "We also use mohair that comes from angora goats and cashmere from cashmere goats." Mention of using hair from cats and dogs also came up and this “just showed how versatile the range of materials we use is and that the fibres are the glue that holds us all together”. Apart from the spinning wheels, there was also a demonstration of blending, where different coloured fibres are brought together prior to spinning. As she deftly weaved her magic on the blending board, Jill Sheffield said “this is what I call making a fibre sandwich”. Ms Sheffield is one of a number of members whose children are now part of the group. “Through our enjoyment and being involved we are helping to keep these crafts alive,” Ms Wilkinson said. “We are not just women doing this, we have a male in the group as well and more are welcome anytime.” The Healesville group has members from
Fostering friendship Woori Yallock Primary School students Jadey, Zanda and their peers can take a seat and find a friend. “One of our families actually made the friendship seat for the school with the help of donations from some local businesses,” the school’s business manager Veronica Gamble said. It features a plaque with the words: “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” “It was these words that inspired us to create a special seat for our children to go to when feeling lonely,” Ms Gamble said. “It’s a safe space for our kids to sit, while they wait for other children to invite them to play. “Having a friendship seat in our school means that students have to work together to make sure everyone has a friend.”

By Derek Schlennstedt With more than 100 animals, from lions, monkeys and alligators, to kangaroos, wallabies and wombats, there is plenty for animal-lovers to enjoy at Mansfield Zoo. Visitors can have fun meeting the animals or even camp overnight if they dare. The zoo features a large menagerie of animals from across Australia and around the world, including two rare white lions, two tawny lions, monkeys (capuchins, marmosets, rhesus and bonnet), deer, camels, bison, alligator, wombats and much more. The zoo keeper feeding tour is a great time to see the majestic animals and the four lions are fed at 1.30pm each weekend and Victorian holiday, followed by feeding of the meerkat mob. Guests can also feed animals by hand while they wander the expansive grounds with sambar, fallow deer and kangaroos roaming alongside them, along with guinea fowl and peacocks. A small spade is provided to feed the more gregarious animals, like the camels, who will run off with it if they can. Visitors can bring a picnic lunch or use the free barbeques and spend a day relaxing. For the more adventurous, there’s nothing like trying to sleep to the sound of a lion’s roar. Overnight campers are welcome from 1 September to 31 May each season, but need to book a spot. They can bring their own gear and set up for a camping trip with a difference and take the opportunity to roam the zoo after-hours. The Mansfield Zoo is open every day except Christmas Day from 10am to 6pm (10pm on New Year’s Eve). At Mansfield Zoo you can feed the cute Meerkat Mob all year round.

SHEDFEST 2018
Sheds and cellar doors The continual growth and success of the annual Shedfest event has led to its expansion across the entire Yarra Valley. The participating wineries stretch along the Maroondah Highway to Healesville and the Melba Highway to Yarra Glen. YVWA president Daniel Tokar said the event had established itself as an integral destination event for the industry. “We are a supportive network of boutique wineries that produce some of Victoria’s finest wines,” he said. “Shedfest is a great way to explore a number of our cellar offerings, discover unique releases, prepare for Christmas with cellar door savings and enjoy spring at its finest.”
Mr Tokar also said that as an organisation, YVSWA had raised more than $70,000 for community groups including local CFA and SES projects. Visitors can design their day by winery or by food offerings across 12 wineries. Entry to the Yarra Valley Shedfest Wine Festival is $15 and includes a souvenir glass for tastings at all the participating wineries, with additional options for food packages and bottle combinations. Some of the proceeds from the sale of the glass will go to a local community group. For more information regarding travel options, a map of the event and participating wineries, visit www.shedfest.com.au.

THE ART FACTORY
Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s their space to create By Casey Neill
Students Ruby, Rhiannon, Mone and Jasmine.
12400091-RA40-18
Healesville High School is home to a creative space with a difference. The Art Factory was born from a desire to get art out of the classroom, back in 2014. Redevelopments left a building disused, and students and staff have transformed it into a breeding ground for creativity. It will host an exhibition of artwork from students of all ages that will be open to the public from 3.30pm to 7pm on Wednesday 17, Thursday 18 and Friday 19 October. "This will be the fourth exhibition in the space," teacher David Lloyd said. Students use the space at lunch time and after school. "We get them creating with no set curriculum," Mr Lloyd said. "The Art Factory gives them space to be their own person. "It's still a learning environment but it's a bit more fun." Evidence of artistic expression is everywhere, from painting and drawing to sculpture and photography. Year 8 student Rhiannon, 14, said her creations in The Art Factory are a lot larger than what she produces in the classroom. Classmate Ruby, 14, said the art made in the space was more creative. "It's more hands-on than just pen and paper." Year 10 student Jasmine, 15, said The Art Factory was a good place in which to express herself. Mone, 15, said she found art fun and the space was "a relief valve". "I love just hanging out with friends here," she said.

Termites are widely regarded as one of the most damaging pests to have in your home or business. And for good reason. They are among the most destructive insect pests in the world. They are known to destroy the wall and roofing timbers of a home within three months of construction; and cause more damage to homes in Australia than fire, floods and storms combined. So if a problem arises, let the professionals know. Frontline Termite and Pest Control is a nonfranchise, family-run business. They have 15 years of experience in the industry. They specialise in termite treatment and termite control in the Yarra Valley and as far away as Melbourne, in both new and established homes - commercial, domestic and extensions. The company guarantees all work related to termite services and termite treatment, and they are fully insured. Frontline Termite and Pest Control specialises in the removal of more than just termites, including ants, spiders, cockroaches, rodents, wasps and bees. Meanwhile, most homeowners are aware of the health and safety risks associated with cockroach infestations, including the allergies and asthma triggered by cockroach allergens, and the germs and bacteria they have been known to spread. What may not be as widely known is the fact that cockroaches are a very interesting and resilient pest, which exhibit some very odd behaviour and survival tactics.

Over-50s festival By Michael Doran
Yarra Glen Historical Society custodians Helen Mann and Jill Sheffield.
Hearing all the history By Michael Doran
Bryce and Anne show activity is good for you. She has now developed a program called Through My Eyes, which helps children, particularly those affected by trauma, to tell their story as part of a healing process. Ms Turpie-Johnstone, an indigenous elder, is helping to heal family violence and promote strong and resilient families. She is completing her PhD, comparing the indigenous knowing of the land and the colonial attitude of taming the land. Yarra Ranges Council produced a festival booklet with all the month’s activities and events laid out, which is available from the website.
It also includes discount vouchers from 39 local businesses. “There are more businesses than ever before offering great discounts to our senior residents as an acknowledgement of the economic contribution you make,” Cr Cox said. In October there are more than 2000 activities across Victoria as part of the Victorian Seniors Festival and with free public transport available from 7 to 14 October, getting around is easy. Celebration Day, a day of live music, dancing, choirs, active living demonstrations and U3A activities, is at Melbourne's Federation Square on Sunday 7 October.
Open, immerse and create your artwork There’s an energy building as artists across the Yarra Valley prepare for three huge weekends that will make up this year's Yarra Valley Arts Open Studios. Under the theme Opening up to Art the event will showcase work from 45 artists working in 35 studios in three destinations. Studios will open from 10am to 5pm along the Maroondah Highway on 6 to 7 October, along the Warburton Highway on 27 to 28 October and the Melba Highway on 10 to 11 November. An official launch of the event at Healesville's Memo Gallery from 6pm to 8pm on Friday 28 September will showcase all participating artists. An exhibition at the gallery will follow until 13 November. The Waterwheel and Coombe Yarra Valley
will also host exhibitions, from 18 October to 7 November and 24 October to 11 November respectively. The three weekends showcasing three distinct regions of the valley provide visitors with a rich and immersive experience of the environments and inspirations in which working artists bring work alive. For aspiring artists and visitors, the opportunity to witness work in progress, enjoy a one-on-one discussion about practice, and perhaps even gain some hands-on experience, can be an inspiring way to embrace personal creativity and art-making. Yarra Valley Arts president Reggie Clark said a studio was often more than a place of work. “Studios can show us the layers of reflec-
Very favourable movie is not so simple after all A Simple Favour Starring Anna Kendrick, Blake Lively and Henry Golding Rated M A Simple Favour is a darkly funny psychological thriller directed by Paul Feig and based on the novel by Darcey Bell. Single mother and vlogger Stephanie (Anna Kendrick) launches an investigation into the disappearance of her best friend Emily (Blake Lively). A Simple Favour begins with an odd-couple friendship, but quickly develops into a compelling, twisted mystery narrative with outstanding character development. Kendrick and Lively have extraordinary chemistry, and the film's opening act derives mailcommunity.com.au
endearingly awkward humour from how different their characters are: Stephanie is lively yet meek, and Emily is brash and confident. The film smoothly establishes Emily's identity and relationships, then proceeds to subvert this foundation in cunning ways. It's satisfying to watch Stephanie's investigation embolden her, making her much more confident and decisive as she navigates damning secrets from Emily's past. Through a series of shocking, well-paced revelations, the film consistently challenges our assumptions about Emily and her life, and culminates in a riveting battle of wits. Teeming with dark wit and driven by powerful performances and an ingenious mystery plot, A Simple Favour is one of the year's best thrillers. - Seth Lukas Hynes
tion, of story and of struggle and triumph that make an artist’s life meaningful," she said. "They also provide us with an invitation to consider the tools and the techniques of art-making within their own context of mystery and delight.” Ms Clark said last year’s program attracted more than 6000 visitors, "many of them coming not once but three times to enjoy more artists, in more studios with plenty of opportunity to also indulge in the fine food, wine and accommodation of the Yarra Valley area”. Artworks at the exhibitions, and at the studios, are available for purchase. The Yarra Valley Arts Open Studios map is available to help plan visits and discover the many artists who will share their work. Visit www.yarravalleyarts.org.au/yvaopenstudios.
The first European settler at Dixons Creek, John Dickson, is the subject of a Yarra Glen and District Historical Society presentation. Local historian Irene Kearsley will cover Gulf Station's early history, from John Dickson onwards, at the society's annual Tetlow Talk on Sunday 14 October at 1.30pm. “A lot is known about Gulf Station but there is not much that can be found out about John Dickson,” society secretary Helen Mann said. “Irene’s talk will give us a picture of who John Dickson was and the early history of how Gulf Station came about. It will be the first time we have focussed on John Dickson, not just those who followed him at Gulf Station” Dickson arrived in the district about 1843 and took up the original lease on land north of the Yarra in the areas now known as Steels and Dixons creeks. His five children were born at Gulf Station, which he sold in 1854 before moving to Kangaroo Ground. Eric Tetlow was Yarra Glen and District Historical Society (YGDHS) treasurer from 1973 to 2000 and secretary from then until his passing in 2009. The annual talk is named in his honour due to his 36 years of tireless efforts to keep the Yarra Glen district's history alive. The society is at the Yarra Glen Memorial Hall and opens on Wednesday afternoons from 1.30pm to 4pm. “As the local historical society we are really an archive for the community, but getting that history down will always be a work in progress,” Ms Mann said. “We have an online encyclopaedia that can be added to, so we are continually building the history of Yarra Glen and surrounding districts." The society is increasingly turning to digital media to record history and Ms Mann said they needed to recruit some volunteers with skills in those areas. “We have tape recordings that are so old they fall apart when we try to play them, so getting things digitised is vital for their preservation.” An afternoon tea will follow the talk at the Yarra Glen Memorial Hall. A gold coin donation is requested. Details are available from Ms Mann on 0429 006 152 or yarraglenhistorical@live.com.au.

Most over-50s will remember the Beatles song, Magical Mystery Tour, so it’s a fitting theme for the launch of this year's Yarra Ranges Over Fifties Festival. “This year marks the 36th year we celebrate the contribution of our senior residents as the wise elders, active volunteers, carers, mentors, experienced employees and civic citizens” Yarra Ranges Mayor Len Cox said. “This month-long program offers a variety of community experiences offering wellbeing, cultural, creative, sporting, social and educational events." The starting event is the Magical Mystery Afternoon Tea on Thursday 4 October, from 2pm to 4pm at Yering Meadows Golf Club. The $10 tickets can be bought at www.yarraranges/seniorsevent. Everyone is encouraged to wear something red - whatever item it may be - with red being a symbol of the energy, celebration and enthusiasm the festival is promoting. “We appreciate and acknowledge the immeasurable benefit that the over-fifties contribute to our community,” Cr Cox said. There are many energetic seniors in the Yarra Valley and one such couple is Bryce and Anne Francis. These two are life-long friends who got together later in life, 32 years ago. “We still pinch ourselves about how lucky we are to have found each other and how good it has been to be together," Ms Francis said. "It was destiny that we got to meet." Despite a partial leg amputation four years ago, 91-year-old Mr Francis hits the gym three times a week, plays the organ, has written a book and a website on card game 500, and gets around on his motor scooter. Two other Yarra Ranges seniors still learning are Sue Clisby and Janet Turpie-Johnstone. Ms Clisby returned to study at age 50 to earn a diploma in arts management.

Breakfast, with thanks By Michael Doran Every Wednesday about 100 students at Healesville High start their day with a healthy breakfast, thanks to dedicated staff and volunteers. “The only cost to the students is a good morning, a please and a thankyou,” the school’s student well-being manager, Lyn Scotchmoor, said. “We started the program 10 years ago because we felt there were kids coming to school not having had any breakfast and wanted to do something about it. “Each week we start at 8am and the students either dash in and grab a toastie or sit down and have a leisurely toastie and milo with their friends. "It’s a lovely way to start the day for students and staff." Ms Scotchmoor said there was always a positive atmosphere in the cafe. “We rely on donations from local organisations and our past-principal, Ion Whykes, has been a big supporter whose generosity helps us to provide breakfast free to the students,” she said. For the tenth birthday breakfast on Wednesday 19 September, the usual toasties gave way to egg and bacon rolls, cooked by a group of volunteers from the school community. In charge of the eggs were Doctor Khoi Bui and Nurse Claire Oettinger from Healesville’s Get Well Clinic. They are part of the school community through the Doctors in Secondary Schools program, a State Government initiative to give all students access to a weekly GP clinic at school. “It is nice to see the children in this easy-

going environment and for them to see us in a different light, away from the clinic,” Ms Oettinger said. Nella Lithgow, one of the staff manning the food line, said: "We run the breakfast club on Wednesdays because the kids seem more settled in the middle of the week.” “It is always around the same number of kids, around a quarter of the school’s students are in here most weeks,” she said. Kerry Davies, the school’s lab technician, is the third member of the team behind the breakfast club and also said how the relaxed environment helped to build positive connections within the school community. Breakfast club opens the doors at 7.50am, empties out in a hurry when the bell rings an hour later, and the staff are left to clean up before starting their own work day. Their enthusiasm for giving students a healthy start to the day is clearly evident and shows no signs of waning as they start their 11th year.
Yering Primary School students are enjoying their new cubby house, thanks to a blending of student manpower and expertise from the Yarra Glen and District Men’s Shed. “The students wanted to get a cubby house and the Men’s Shed was happy to help us," teacher Nick Westerman said. "The kids helped design the cubby and then worked with the men’s shed guys to build it." It was a shared enterprise, with girls and boys spending time on a Friday at the shed under the watchful eye of Sid Bauma and his team. “The first step was to teach them about safe use of the tools and get them used to hand tools” he said. “I loved the kids' enthusiasm, their keenness to learn and you could really see they were interested in what we had to say." Mr Westerman said the students involved all learnt new skills, "made connections to fantastic mentors and it was great for us to give them a voice in something new”.
Men’s Shed secretary, Ken Kneebone, said: “I think they enjoyed hammering the most, it was as noisy as any building site I’ve been on when they all started banging away.” Talking to the students and their mentors at the opening, it was obvious how much joy they got out of working together. “It was really fun to do something I like and using the tools to make stuff,” school co-captain Joel Ciccone said. The men's shed's president, Tom Hardstaff, said the group had a lot of involvement in community projects. "We all believe it is really important to pass these skills onto the next generation," he said. "It’s just part of what we do." The Yarra Glen and District Men’s Shed came about following the 2009 bushfires, when the issue of male physical and mental health was raised at a community meeting. The club has about 55 members and is always ready to welcome visitors or prospective new members. Information can be found at www.yarraglen.com/mensshed or on 9730 2864.

Eagles soar to a victory AFL YARRA RANGES Football DIVISION 1 SENIORS Preliminary final Woori Yallock 18.10.118 d Healesville 14.14.98 Woori Yallock will take on Wandin in the Division 1 Grand Final on Friday 28 September. Woori Yallock started fiercely, kicking 7.5 to 1.1 in the first. They had a six goal to four second quarter to be in the lead by 52 points at half time. Healesville regrouped in the third and won it by 10 points to reduce the margin to 24 points at the last change. Healesville also won the last quarter, but needed to be accurate in front of goal. They kicked themselves out of it with 4.5. Woori Yallock best: C. French, R. Allen, J. Matthews (4 goals), R. Monkhorst, S. Kennedy, M. Lowe. Healesville best: N. Mende, A. Fraraccio, J. Roe-Duggan (4 goals), L. Barclay, D. Anderson (2 goals), S. Donkin. DIVISION 1 RESERVES Preliminary final Mount Evelyn 8.14.62 d Upwey Tecoma 8.3.51 Mount Evelyn will take on Olinda Ferny Creek in the Grand Final. Mount Evelyn best: R. Fooks (1 goal), B. Cronkshaw (1 goal), B. Hindhaugh-Billington (1 goal), J. Shaw, B. Williams, B. Klaas-Henry. Upwey Tecoma best: N. Waterman (4 goals), M. Tonge, K. Townsend-Finlay, S. Gannell, N. Horne, R. Burke. DIVISION 2 SENIORS Grand final Yarra Junction 20.17.137 d Seville 6.5.41 Seville finished minor premiers but Yarra Junction beat the side two weeks ago. These two had never met in a Grand Final. Seville's last second division premiership was in 1995 when they beat Kinglake, and Yarra Junction won their last title in 1990 when they beat Belgrave. Since 1990, Seville has been runners-up three times and Yarra Junction four. Some punters tipped Yarra Junction, but most would have tipped Seville. It was apparent that the better-rested team was going to prevail. Yarra Junction got off to a blinder in the first, kicking 5.5 to 3.1. Tyson Wheeler was a handful for Seville. The Eagles sapped all the energy from Seville in the second, piling on 6.5 to 1.2 to have a 49-point lead at the major break. Seville looked stunned and completely outclassed. The third quarter was quiet in comparison. The Eagles had full control and were heading for home with a very handy 59-point lead.

Plate tribute for our Mick
Courts get facelift Warburton tennis players are relishing playing on a new surface following $110,000 in upgrades. Yarra Ranges Council replaced fencing around the Warburton Tennis Club and the playing nets. The shire upgraded the asphalt playing surface to a sand-filled synthetic grass, and upgraded drainage. O'Shannassy Ward Councillor Jim Child said the council also upgraded lighting to a competition standard, so games could take place after dark. "These works will give the tennis club a much-needed face-lift for their courts, one that will make the space a better place to play for people of all experience levels," he said. "The new courts, nets and fencing will be a great asset to the club, and the many players who will come through it, over years to come." Warburton Tennis Club president Nic Fox the works would ensure competitions and social, casual, outreach and schooling programs could continue to flourish. "It has been a project we have been working on for over three years and it is very exciting seeing it come to fruition," she said. The tennis club will host a family day to officially open the courts, from 1pm to 4pm on Sunday 14 October. Equipment, tennis coaching, cardio classes and refreshments will be provided. The annual Warburton Tennis Cup will take place on 3 and 4 November. Visit facebook.com/warburtontennisclub or email committee@warburtontennis.com. au for more information.

A solid 36 points gave Ron Hottes a countback win in Warburton Golf Club's Wednesday 19 September stableford event, on a day when the course won again. The unlucky runner-up was Kevin Conway with 36 also. He would have been a clear winner if he hadn't spoiled his card on the 17th with a scratch. Balls only extended to 34. The nearest the pins went to Phil Garside with a superb second shot at the first, and Happy snared one at the 15th. Mick Cleary was a jovial, popular member of the club until he passed away far too soon. He was also a great friend of the Hatt family, and they created the Farrier's Plate in his honour. The club played the event on Saturday 22 September. It was fitting that a father and son featured in the results on a day when farrier Mick was fondly remembered. The guest winner was Mitch Hatt with an inspired +4 - inspired by the memory of Uncle Mick. The member winner was Lance Atwell with +3 on a countback. The runner-up was young Harrison Baxter, also with a creditable +3. The ball rundown went to -1. Nearest the pin winners were Captain Cross on the third, Kempton Senior on the fifth and ninth, Trevor Porter on the 12th and LanceAtwell on the 15th. There were three graded L/drives won, too. They went to David Hatt (A-Grade), Steve Wyatt (B) and Marty Garthwaite (C)

Toolangi rally run and won By Michael Doran The Rally Championship and the Victorian Club Rally Series were held in the Toolangi forest on Sunday 16 September. The predicted rain and heavy weather held off to give a great day of racing for the 79 starters and spectators alike. “The course was a bit wet in the morning but it dried out for the afternoon run and we recorded some good times," event director Craig Jarvie said. "All aspects of the event ran smoothly and we had hundreds of spectators around the course so it was a good day for all." In the championship section, overall winners were Arron Windus and Daniel Brkic in a Subaru WRX STi, a car borrowed from New South Wales for the event and driven by the pair for the first time.
In the two-wheel drive category, Brendan Reeves and Ben Searcy took the chequered flag, driving Jarvie's Holden Commodore. “Looking at the Victorian Championship Series leaderboard, Matt Lee has certainly increased his chances by finishing third on Sunday," Jarvie said. "Another great drive was in the Hyundai Excel class with 17-year-old Josh Born taking the prize, an excellent effort against a field of experienced rally drivers." Aiden Peart and Stuart Armstrong took out the club rally series in their Datsun 260Z. “The Toolangi Forest course proved a good test for the racers, everybody enjoyed the day and it was great to see how many spectators came out,” Jarvie said.
