CHARITY FEAST

Volunteer marketing manger, Scott Talbot, and Queenscliff Seafood Feast founders Grant and Michelle Talbot are supporting vital charities and ‘putting Queenscliff on the map’ with their inspirational philanthropic endeavours.

Queenscliff prepar for its biggest weekend of the year with more than 20,000 people expected to attend the eagerly anticipated Good Friday Seafood Feast BY ALISON MARTIN QUEENSCLIFF will etch its name in history and into Australia’s major event calendar on Good Friday, when the annual seafood feast is taken to a remarkable new level. The proven success of the Queenscliff Seafood Feast, which raises significant funds for Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal and attracts thousands of visitors, will be further boosted with new feature events. Volunteer marketing manager, Scott Talbot, said introducing the first ‘over-the-water’ Charity Restaurant and seafood show on the pier created

more diversity and provided extra incentive for people to come to the Bellarine. “We will have Australia’s largest Seafood Feast, with the choices ranging from an $8 plate to a $25 sharing platter or four courses at the five-star Charity Restaurant,” he said. “It’s going to be an incredible seafood and culinary experience, with the largest super kitchen in the world preparing 6.5 tonnes of seafood and a team of 450 volunteers to bring it all together.” The Good Friday charity event will also include live entertainment performed by world-class performers and two free circus performances presented by Sunrise Circus.

“The circus [which features quality performances and no animals] will add another attraction for children and a gold coin donation will add to our fundraising,” Talbot said. Another new addition – the two-day Seafood Show – will open simultaneously with the Queenscliff Seafood Feast, with more than 20,000 visitors expected over Good Friday and Easter Saturday. The show will offer an unprecedented opportunity to explore and purchase recreational fishing and seafood products direct through the 46 exhibitors, including industry leaders, buyers and sellers. Further along the pier, the waiting shed will be transformed into an elaborate bar for guests of the

Charity Restaurant – the six-day only, five-star culinary extravaganza. The carpeted restaurant marquee will cover the far end of the historic pier where guests will be treated to a superb seafood lunch or four-course dinner and show, with romantic water views and perfect presentation. “All of these things increase the profile of the event and make it easier for us to attract sponsors and donations for next year,” Talbot said. “It’s going to be a mammoth undertaking but Queenscliff will thrive and it’s going to really put Queenscliff on the map.” For more information visit www.seafoodfeast.org

Working to overcome the odds BY ALISON MARTIN A SMEAR of peanut butter on a door handle is potentially life-threatening for Indented Head youngster, Tirian Hillman. However, with the support and knowledge of his family and Portarlington Primary School, he is proving anaphylaxis can be managed and can have minimal impact on a normal, happy six-year-old’s life. Tirian’s parents, Sandy and Dean, said principal, Denise Simmons, and school staff had been “nothing short of brilliant�. “When they knew we were enrolling Tirian in Prep this year, the school introduced a no peanuts, no peanut product and no egg policy to accommodate his severe allergies and made changes to the canteen menu,� Sandy said. “But it doesn’t stop other children having a cake with egg in it, just not an egg sandwich. “We receive good support from other parents at the school and there have been no problems at the school at all. He has a medical diary for his medication, a management plan and he feels very safe at school. “We never hide Tirian’s allergies and want to encourage education, and hope we can make it easier for other parents.� The family has two older children, Hayden and Montana, who do not have the health issues Tirian has faced since birth and there are no answers to explain his allergies. “We stopped asking ‘why’ so we could concentrate on managing the allergies because everyone has a theory but no-one knows the cause,� Sandy said. “Tirian had other health issues when he was born and the Royal Children’s Hospital has been his second home, but it wasn’t until he was 13 months that we discovered he had life-threatening allergies.

“He was given bread dunked in egg, his tongue and face started swelling and it was terrifying. He was rushed to hospital and we found out he was allergic to egg. “Tirian’s allergy is so severe that he doesn’t have to actually eat eggs, he just has to make skin contact or inhale eggs.� Added to the egg allergy, Tirian can’t eat peanuts, peanut products or acidic foods – with pineapple, tomatoes and beetroot making him ill. “His last extremely serious reaction was last December and we think it was exposure to cat hair,� Sandy said. But while there are many unknowns, the family is able to manage his allergies as simply a way of life. “At home it’s easy because it is a controlled environment. We have to be extremely diligent and stick to brands and varieties we know do not have nut or egg content,� Sandy said. “If we go out for a meal, we ask the waiters to check the ingredients and if we are going to barbecues, we cook Tirian’s food in foil to prevent exposure. “It’s not that hard to deal with; it’s about having a plan in place and making sure people around him have the knowledge.� In appreciation for the efforts of Denise, Mandy and Portarlington Primary School, the Hillman’s fashion boutique in Portarlington, Montana’s has established a loyalty programme. Any parents with children at Portarlington Primary School who shop at Montana’s will be supporting the school, with a percentage of their purchases donated to the school. Portarlington Primary School Prep student, Tirian Hillman, and principal, Denise Simons, are working together to improve community understanding of anaphylaxis.

Basket is a rich harvest BY ALISON MARTIN DRYSDALE’S monthly Harvest Basket is continuing to grow and support communities, as news of the food swap spreads across the Bellarine. Harvest Basket spokesperson, Jill Pring, said the variety of vegetables and homegrown produce brought to exchange with other community members was amazing. The produce swap idea had developed into a regular market after being initiated by residents who saw the benefits of sharing fresh, locally-grown produce. Pring said organisers had been promoting the initiative at Bellarine events, including the agricultural show and the Bunyip festival, and more members were welcome.

She said the Harvest Basket also had established its own website, www.drysdaleharvestbasket. org to keep the community up to date with the project, farm gate sales and gardening information. While the concept of the food swap is exchanging goods for whatever is agreed as a fair trade, any produce left at the end of the monthly event can be donated to charity or exchanged for a small monetary donation. Pring said the Harvest Basket had raised more than $300 for local charities in just six months, with the Drysdale Food Bank and St Vincent’s sharing in the donations. The April Harvest Basket food swap will be held on Easter Saturday, 9am-11am, at SpringDale Neighbourhood Centre.

Inspiring story leads to CD launch BY ALISON MARTIN WHAT started as a passion to learn more about her mother’s life as a Scottish war bride has become a fascinating journey of music, theatre and untold history for Portarlington’s Christine Middleton. Sunday’s launch of her new CD, Lochs, Glens and Ingles, has been the culmination of that journey, to date, and will no doubt inspire more recordings, performances and the sharing of stories in the future. The double CD is a collection of traditional Scottish tunes performed by Middleton on vocals and harp, Matiss Schubert on violin and guests, along with a reading of her play Memoirs of a Scottish War Bride. She has performed the play on many occasions, and has now added her father’s story of life in the air force during World War II, Aussie Fly Boy, to her repertoire. Middleton said she had always been inspired by music and the writing of personal, history-rich plays, interspersed with songs of the era and her mother’s homeland had been a natural progression for her. “I wrote Memoirs of a Scottish War Bride to pay tribute to my mother and the thousands of other brave young women who left their lands for a country unknown,” she said. The play follows her mother’s life from her home in Portsoy, Scotland, where she met her father, and takes the audience to her new home in Australia. However, the response from communities, who have been able to relate to the ‘story of adventure, laughter,

tears and struggle’, has compelled her to continue writing and performing. Middleton has even performed her Scottish memoirs in Portsoy, on invitation from the 15th Traditional Scottish Boat Festival. “I play some Scottish music on the harp, then have taped pipe music, tell the story, play the ukulele when mum meets dad, and at the end I read a war bride poem followed by a song written by my son-in-law,” she said. “I mainly perform it for seniors’ festivals and morning melodies, and I get a wonderful response from the audience who can obviously relate to my mother’s story. “I performed Aussie Fly Boy at the seniors’ festival in Portarlington as a oneoff, then was asked to perform to celebrate the restoration of a Liberator at Hoppers Crossing… People relate to those times, they’ve become a really important social, historical story. “The reaction has been so overwhelming that it grew into the CD.” Middleton said the final product had involved many local people, including Lyn Ingles and talented musicians. “It was recorded in my house, except the pipe songs which were recorded in the Portarlington church,” Middleton said. “I’ve already sold 100 copies and it’s a real storybook in itself.” Middleton said the launch at Portarlington’s The Mill had been particularly special because her parents were able to attend. “I’ve had many people come up and say I wish I had my parents’ story; it’s always quite emotional,” she said.

Drysdale plan to panel

Well-known Bellarine identity, Jessie Bailey, celebrated her 101st birthday last week. She taught at the former Bellarine Primary School many years ago and has seen many changes around the peninsula. Jessie celebrated with family, including her daughter, Anne Timms.

CITY of Geelong Council last week requested that the Minister for Planning, Justin Madden, appoint an Independent Panel to assess a proposed residential development in Drysdale. The proposal is to amend the planning Scheme to rezone land from Farming Zone and Low Density Residential Zone to Residential 1 Zone. Planning Scheme Amendment C103 applies to land directly south-east of the Drysdale town centre, which consists of 11 titles and a total area of 28 hectares.

Katos said the Amendment would be accompanied by a Section 173 Agreement in which the developers have committed to making significant contributions to community infrastructure, road upgrades and drainage. “For example, the development would include a playground, walking track and public reserve,” he said. Fourteen submissions were received in response to the proposal, which was on exhibition between November 14 last year and January 18 this year. Katos said the proposed development was consistent with the Drysdale Clifton Springs Structure Plan, which was adopted in April 2009.

Priorities are all wrong

Supermarket worries

Dear Editor, It is interesting to see Darren Cheeseman spruiking the multi-million dollar bid to attract the soccer World Cup to Australia only a week after the Labor Party passed changes to the Youth Allowance that will severely disadvantage tertiary students in his electorate. The reasoning behind the changes was that there was no new money available to be put into the Youth Allowance system – all changes needed to be budget neutral. Thus, while more lower income families will benefit, many middle income families will be severely disadvantaged. The changes have created a two tier system for eligibility to the independent Youth Allowance. Metropolitan and inner regional students have to meet the all-but-impossible criteria of working for an average of 30 hours over 18 months to qualify for the allowance – delaying their tertiary studies by two years. Unfortunately, students in regional areas like Colac and the Surf Coast are deemed to be inner regional. Those outside this arbitrary boundary remain eligible under the old, more accessible criteria, of earning $19,000 over 18 months. The questions that needs to be asked of Mr Cheeseman and the party he represents are: • Where, in the small rural communities that make up your electorate, are so many unskilled 18 year olds going to find full-time jobs for 18 months to qualify? • Given that these jobs don’t exist, where are the families of these students going to find the estimated $20,000/year to send their kids to university in a major city? • Why did you vote for a system that effectively says rural students have equal employment opportunities with metropolitan students? • Why did you vote for a system that will further disadvantage rural students wanting to enter tertiary education? Is this the ‘Education Revolution’ you campaigned on at the last election? Something is wrong with a party that can find millions to bid for the World Cup, with no guarantee of success, but can’t find the money to ensure that rural students have equal access to tertiary education. There are many families, and 18 year olds voting for the first time, who will use their vote later this year to remind Mr Cheeseman that he was elected to represent their interests, not just to follow the party line. This should be of particular concern to a representative in one of the most marginal electorates in the country.

Dear Editor, The Surf Coast Times is to be congratulated for its front page reporting of the proposed Aireys Inlet supermarket (Super Concerns, March 23). This proposal represents an important issue for local residents and for Surf Coast Council. Aireys Inlet is currently well served by our range of shops and a supermarket would be an unnecessary addition. However, there are much more important matters at stake in this planning discussion than our need for more consumption opportunities. This development proposal presents Surf Coast Shire with its first real climate change planning challenge. The land for this proposal, at 83 Great Ocean Road, fronts the Painkalac Creek. This land is at sea level and already subject to flooding from the creek. The Victorian Coastal Council’s predicted .8m sea level rise makes this site vulnerable to further flooding and storm surges. Moreover, can you imagine the traffic chaos with delivery trucks and the stream of cars waiting for parking? Or the illumination from supermarket lights in the night sky? Surf Coast Shire must lead the way on this planning decision and reject the application.

and Zeally Bay Caravan Park gone forever. Houses purchased in every street are being demolished by developers, and now a business park with Bunnings will be the first thing you see when you drive into town. I know you can’t stop progress, but where is the vision? As for parking meters – yes, other metropolitan Melbourne councils have done it and even Lorne. But this is Torquay. And it’s ironic the parking meters have been mentioned as a way to fund the development of Whites Beach. Many who purchased in The Sands and more recently The Quay love the beach as it is. With such a population explosion and with so many new ratepayers, are parking meters wanted or really needed at all? Maybe only to justify the budget. Michael Ball Berwick

A lack of political support Dear Editor, Lake Modewarre is dry – well, the top layer is anyway! The Lake, with a capacity of 13,100 megalitres, dried out completely in 2008, and has had little water in it since then. The Lake Modewarre Committee of Management has for some time been in contact with VicRoads about future drainage works during construction of the Princes Highway duplication, with a view to reinstating some drainage flow to the lake. The committee submitted a proposal to the panel hearing concerned with several planning issues regarding the duplication, and was given the opportunity to address this panel. The main thrust of our submission was to have continued, informed dialogue with VicRoads during the construction process in the area of Barrabool Road. At all times the panel and VicRoads were receptive and encouraging. Several public figures lent their support with letters noting Lake Modewarre’s importance to the local community and supporting our request for continued consultation. Refusing to recognise the lake’s importance to the community and support communication were Darren Cheeseman and Michael Crutchfield. This behaviour seems to have been repeated elsewhere, when community groups have appealed for support from these politicians. It is upsetting when our local representatives will not support their constituents in attempts to ensure community consultation.

Kate Driscoll Fairhaven

No to Aireys supermarket Dear Editor, As a former resident of and long-time lover of Aireys Inlet, I view the supermarket proposal with alarm. Aireys cannot support many more houses/people than it already has; purely a matter of commonsense (a quality it seems lacking in the Surf Coast Shire). Nevertheless, the monster will go ahead, for council, driven by its ever-growing appetite for more rates at any cost will fall over itself to grant this. Michael Muschamp Torquay

Say no to parking meters Dear Editor, On a recent holiday, spending money in local businesses, I almost cried at this proposal. What is going on at Torquay? This will certainly end your identity as a favourite holiday destination for thousands. Over the years we’ve seen many changes. The down-sizing of the public foreshore caravan park

City of Geelong joins Cup bid

CITY of Greater Geelong has negotiated with the state government for Geelong to be part of Australia’s World Cup bid. Under the bid for the 2018 or 2022 World Cup, Skilled Stadium would host a number of matches, providing great opportunities for the Bellarine’s soccer players and fans. CoGG mayor, John Mitchell, said the World Cup was the biggest sports event in the world and if Australia was the successful bidder, it’s expected to inject $4billion into region’s economy. “Aside from the economic benefits, an event of this scale would put Geelong on the international map,” Mitchell said.

At its Tuesday night meeting council authorised the chief executive officer to enter into an agreement between the state government, Geelong Football Club and the City of Greater Geelong for the use of Skilled Stadium. Hosting the World Cup would involve Skilled Stadium being transformed into a rectangular stadium, increasing crowd capacity to 44,000. The redevelopment would be carried out in stages with all works to be completed two years before the event. Following the World Cup the stadium would be reinstated to its original oval configuration, with a crowd capacity of

34,000. “We’re working with the state and federal governments to make sure that we can achieve necessary funding for infrastructure upgrades should Australia become the host nation,” Mitchell said. In addition to Skilled Stadium’s major redevelopment – expected to cost in the vicinity of $300million – four local sportsgrounds would be upgraded to serve as training venues during the event. Each training venue would be fitted with a 500-seat grandstand and broadcaststandard lighting. The successful bid will be announced in December.

Get behind the charity auction IT’S TIME to turn that spare furniture, the boat you never use or any unwanted items into cash for yourself or charity. The Lions Club of Portarlington/Drysdale will host a Giant Charity Auction at Portarlington on April 11, with the majority of proceeds going to local charities. Six auctioneers from Portarlington and Drysdale real estate agents have donated their time to conduct the auction and Lions members can collect donated items. Items can also be provided to Lions for sale on a commission basis, with or without reserved prices, or donated for sale. The Lions club also has the support of the Portarlington Football/Netball Club, which has provided its second oval for the auction, and the Girl Guides, who will cater and provide facilities on the day.

Other items may be cars, boats, trailers, furniture or anything else in saleable condition. Items must be taken to the site by 9am on auction day – Sunday, April 11. Unsold items must be removed by the owners by the end of the day, with inspections from 9am and auction sales at 11am. Donated items can be collected by contacting Lions members Robert Wilson-Browne on 5259 3113 or Gary Doolan on 5251 1380. No mattresses, livestock, tyres or junk will be accepted, but electrical goods in working condition can be provided as long as they are tagged ‘not tested’. The Lions Club is always looking for more members to assist with various activities and more information is available by contacting Ian Cook on 5251 3779.

Rising home values good news for retirees THOSE looking to get on the property ladder are probably cursing monthly figures which show the market continuing its upward surge. For retirees, however, the rising price of houses can provide the source of a cash boost. According to Homesafe Solutions, seniors looking for extra cash flow can draw on the equity in their home without any major hassles or worries. “Many homeowners don’t know they can unlock the equity in the family home without selling or going into debt,� said Peter Szabo, managing director of Homesafe Solutions. “Many retirees have been battered by the sharemarket over the past year, but for those with their own home, the silver-lining has been strong house price growth.� Szabo said that Homesafe Solutions Debt Free Equity release product can provide retirees with a much-needed injection of cash, but unlike a reverse mortgage does not involve taking out a loan. “The family home is the largest asset for most retirees and equity release enables you to use it as a source of retirement income,� he said. Szabo said the family home is emerging as a very important source of retirement income thanks to equity release. “Equity release allows homeowners to stay in

Deep Creek virtually sold out

A HIGH quality alternative to the large Estates, Deep Creek has reawakened memories of how Torquay used to be. With over 90 per cent of Deep Creek sold and settled (120 lots) opportunities are extremely limited to secure a home site in this popular neighbourhood. Deep Creek locals love the 15-acre Deep Creek Reserve along the banks of the creek, a haven for wildlife and a beautiful, natural link to the beach. Deep Creek is a short stroll to schools, kinders, medical facilities and Surf World. Perfect for families and nature lovers alike! The recently constructed natural walkways along the creek reserve are a popular asset to the town. Building started at Deep Creek over the two years, with 70 homes completed

or under construction. Residents are already embracing life at Deep Creek and loving it! The Design Panel has received and approved 80 plans with more currently being assessed. Variety is encouraged, with beachy attitude and a vast range of building materials proving to be very popular. FINAL STAGES “Saltbush Place” & “Yellow Gum Dve” have been released and sold comprising a further 31 choice allotments, varying in size from 427 sqm to 741 sqm and priced competitively. The Surf Coast Shire issued the Statement of Compliance this week for the final stages in the nick of time for many of the first home buyers to move along with construction.

The developers have been delighted to offer an interesting alternative in lifestyle, and have involved the group in numbers of Community events sponsoring Charity fundraising. A fun, soft sell advertising campaign embracing the past, envied by most, captured the imagination of both locals and developers alike produced record sales over an extremely short span. The Developers would like to take this opportunity to thank those of the Torquay, Jan Juc community who assisted and participated in some way , be that input large or small. It has been a pleasure to be involved with the “Deep Creek” Development Group. Graeme McCartney and Staff of G.R.McCartney & Son.

A breath of fresh air HOCKING Stuart Real Estate agent, Shaun O’Callaghan, brings a refreshing, consultative approach to his job. O’Callaghan is well aware that buying and selling property is one of the most important decisions anyone will make – and he is more than happy to do all he can to make sure it goes as smoothly as possible. “Real Estate goals can be difficult to achieve, there are so many variables, and I pride myself on making the transition

smooth,” he said. O’Callaghan clearly articulates what is happening in the local property market and navigates the sales process with ease. He has an ability to create a comfortable environment to do business and his direct approach leaves no room for ambiguity. “Everyone’s situation is unique and I prefer to recognise that uniqueness and treat these situations with respect,” he said. Above all else, it is the art of

negotiation that O’Callaghan enjoys and excels at, regularly achieving outstanding results. For more information on the local property market or to speak to O’Callaghan, phone Hocking Stuart on 5261 8888 or visit them at Shop2, 3 Cliff Street, Torquay.

By Enzo Raimondo, CEO REIV

How affordable is home ownership? ACCORDING to the Real Estate Institute of Australia Housing Affordability Report it became more costly to buy or purchase a home in the December quarter 2009 in Victoria. This fact won’t surprise any mortgage holder or any buyer in the marketplace. In the December quarter last year the average proportion of a family income required to meet average loan repayments was 29.5 per cent, an increase on the 28.2 per cent that was required in the September quarter. The main reason for this was the average loan repayment increased from $1,684 to $1,825 – mostly as a result of the three increases in interest rates. There was also a $13,000 increase in the average loan, from $274,214 to $287,331. The average loan repayment is,

however, still lower than it was 12 months ago, a fact that is likely to have already changed, given the interest rate increase this month. In comparison to other states and territories, Victoria had the secondhighest increase in the proportion of income required to meet loan repayments, and is the third-least affordable state or territory in which to own a home. Interestingly, there was a small improvement for renters, who on average required 22 per cent of their income to pay a median rent compared to 22.5 in the September quarter. This latest Housing Affordability Report confirms that worsening affordability will be the most serious issue faced in the local housing market this year and that the only solution will be an increase in housing construction.

WRECK OF THE ‘JOSEPH H SCAMMELL’: Extracts from ‘History of Torquay’ by James A Baines 1938 In 1884, the pinewood hills of the little Nova Scotian seaport of Eaton, echoed with cheers as the new clipper or ‘Bluenose hooker’, Joseph H Scammell slid gently down the ways and into the dancing waters. The yards of Eaton had never turned out a better model, nor one so fast and strong. Late in 1890, she finished a voyage at New York, then sailed from there on January 13th, and was expected to make a good run to Australia. One Hundred days and no news, so Melbourne agents were anxious, but she had been delayed by calms. On Friday morning, May 8,1891, the startling announcement was made in the Geelong Advertiser that a large vessel had gone ashore on the coast near Spring Creek during the squalls of the previous evening, and that owing to the heavy sea running, no boat could put off to the rescue of those on board, who continued to exhibit lights and other indications of distress during the night.

CHARITY FEAST

Volunteer marketing manger, Scott Talbot, and Queenscliff Seafood Feast founders Grant and Michelle Talbot are supporting vital charities and ‘putting Queenscliff on the map’ with their inspirational philanthropic endeavours.

Queenscliff prepar for its biggest weekend of the year with more than 20,000 people expected to attend the eagerly anticipated Good Friday Seafood Feast BY ALISON MARTIN QUEENSCLIFF will etch its name in history and into Australia’s major event calendar on Good Friday, when the annual seafood feast is taken to a remarkable new level. The proven success of the Queenscliff Seafood Feast, which raises significant funds for Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal and attracts thousands of visitors, will be further boosted with new feature events. Volunteer marketing manager, Scott Talbot, said introducing the first ‘over-the-water’ Charity Restaurant and seafood show on the pier created

Surf Forecast

more diversity and provided extra incentive for people to come to the Bellarine. “We will have Australia’s largest Seafood Feast, with the choices ranging from an $8 plate to a $25 sharing platter or four courses at the five-star Charity Restaurant,” he said. “It’s going to be an incredible seafood and culinary experience, with the largest super kitchen in the world preparing 6.5 tonnes of seafood and a team of 450 volunteers to bring it all together.” The Good Friday charity event will also include live entertainment performed by world-class performers and two free circus performances presented by Sunrise Circus.

“The circus [which features quality performances and no animals] will add another attraction for children and a gold coin donation will add to our fundraising,” Talbot said. Another new addition – the two-day Seafood Show – will open simultaneously with the Queenscliff Seafood Feast, with more than 20,000 visitors expected over Good Friday and Easter Saturday. The show will offer an unprecedented opportunity to explore and purchase recreational fishing and seafood products direct through the 46 exhibitors, including industry leaders, buyers and sellers. Further along the pier, the waiting shed will be transformed into an elaborate bar for guests of the

Charity Restaurant – the six-day only, five-star culinary extravaganza. The carpeted restaurant marquee will cover the far end of the historic pier where guests will be treated to a superb seafood lunch or four-course dinner and show, with romantic water views and perfect presentation. “All of these things increase the profile of the event and make it easier for us to attract sponsors and donations for next year,” Talbot said. “It’s going to be a mammoth undertaking but Queenscliff will thrive and it’s going to really put Queenscliff on the map.” For more information visit www.seafoodfeast.org

There’s no better place to retire LAST week’s run of great weather has underlined just what great places the Bellarine Peninsula and Surf Coast regions are for retirees. Whether it’s a stroll along the beach, catching up for coffee or lunch with friends or just taking the dog for a walk, the early autumn weather has seen seniors out and about in their droves. Portarlington proved a popular spot last week, as ALISON MARTIN found out.

Tom Davidson and his dog, Lexie, take a few minutes to relax in Portarlington.

Portarlington residents Dawn, Dawn and Dan enjoy a coffee and chat in their bayside town.

Egg-cellent school holiday fun THE NATIONAL Wool Museum will delve into the age-old dilemma of which came first, the chicken or the egg, these school holidays. The museum will host two special school holiday activity sessions every week day of the school holidays to run in conjunction with its current exhibitions A is for Animals: An A to Z of Animals in war and Palais: Romance of the dance. At 10.30am children aged between three and 12 years will be introduced to some of the extraordinary feats performed by ordinary animals in the craft session Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Children will do a craft activity and then embark on a journey through the A is for Animals exhibition, discovering stories of heroism, loyalty and unyielding service. The 1.30pm daily Needles and Knots session will teach children the skills and techniques required to create a scarf for the museum’s upcoming Reflections Scarf Festival

2010. Children will learn basic knitting and embellishing techniques to begin creating their own wearable art. All materials are supplied and children will leave with a partially completed scarf. These sessions are suitable for children aged from seven to 17 years. And children can discover the magic of dance anytime during these school holidays at the museum’s exhibition Palais: Romance of the Dance. The Easter school holiday programme will be held every weekday through the holidays until Friday, April 9, except Good Friday and Easter Monday. Cost is $5 per child (2-15 years), $7.30 for adults, or $25 for a family (two adults and up to four children) which includes entry to the entire Museum, activity and all materials. The museum is located at 26 Moorabool Street and bookings are essential on 5272 4701.

Family fun at Otway Fly

OTWAY Fly Tree Top Walk offers great activities for kids during the school holidays. And it’s not just kids that love the fun, there is plenty of for the adults, too. Along with the canopy walk, there is the prehistoric path, jungle bungy and abseiling. The Otway Fly is a 600-metre long 25-metre high elevated tree top walk ascending at a gentle grade through a rainforest. For the thrill seeker, a 45-metre high lookout is ascended via a spiral stairway through the understorey to emerge amongst the crowns of the

giants of the forest. The Prehistoric Park is extremely popular with life like, life size dinosaurs and reptiles which capture their imagination. The Jungle Bungy is great fun as you twirl through the air. Imagine being one of those winter aerialists from the Olympics where you are free from gravity and do turns and tumbles whilst harnessed above the large trampoline. The walk is open every day and offers family passes and group discounts for schools. For more information, visit www.otwayfly.com

Children can learn the basics of making their own scarf at the daily Needles and Knots session.

Easter surf camp set for Torquay

75

Reach for the sky YOU KNOW those days during the school holidays when the kids are getting bored, and they’re starting to climb the walls? Or maybe they are starting to drive you up the wall! Well, your peace-of-mind solution is to take them where they can climb to their heart’s content – an indoor rock climbing facility. With all that pent-up energy, kids naturally want to climb and will do so on just about anything, from a chair to a windowsill to a tree or a big rock. A better – and safer – alternative is to take them to The Rock Adventure Centre, where they can try indoor rock climbing in a safe and controlled environment. It’s more than just something fun for kids to do, it’s also terrific exercise. And when you take your children rock climbing, don’t be afraid to give it a try yourself. Rock climbing is a great way to improve your fitness as it uses all your muscles simultaneously – fingers, hands, forearms, shoulders, neck, back, abdomen, and legs. Indoor rock climbing is an excellent low-impact fitness regime and it’s great fun and very addictive. The climbing walls at The Rock are sculptured and textured to resemble real rocky cliffs. The walls are up to 12 metres high

WITH the Easter school holidays now upon us, Torquay is getting set to host the inaugural Billabong Surf Camp next week. Open to all surfers aged six to 16 years, this will be a terrific opportunity to learn, develop confidence in the water, improve skills, meet new friends and have some serious fun with Billabong’s top male and female team riders. The camp will be held at the Torquay Surf Life Saving Club on Tuesday, April 6 and Wednesday, April 7. Billabong Surf Camps provide a positive learning experience for the region’s young rippers through three unique camp options with the one day, two day and the AAA Team overnight packages. “Parents like to know that their children possess the necessary confidence, skills, ability and awareness to handle themselves in the ocean and we help to provide this in the most safe and enjoyable way,� said Billabong Surf Camps operator, Brett Dowker. “There will be a truckload of Billabong giveaways for the kids, beginning with the Billabong showbag and T-shirt as well as over $2,000 worth of major awards. “Campers will also get the chance to shape their own team boards after watching the pros.� The full two-day camp will cater for all surfing styles and abilities, male and female, and will specialise in coaching those wishing to take their surfing skills, knowledge and aquatic confidence to the next level. All campers will have the opportunity to meet and hear from current and past professional surfers, as well as a range of the country’s top shapers. And one lucky young surfer will also walk away from the camp with a brand new $800 surfboard. For more information about Billabong Surf Camps, please visit http://www.supersurfcamps.com/ billabong.aspx or visit your local Billabong surf shop to grab an enrolment form. Alternatively, phone 0402 817 152 or email info@supersurfcamps.com

and are studded with coloured climbing ‘holds’ of various sizes and shapes. Hanging down the face of the climbing walls are safety ropes. The climber wears a harness to which the safety rope is attached. As the climber starts up, a partner handles the rope belay system. When a climber is ready to come down, or should fall, the belay system provides a safe and controlled descent – a 40-kilogram youth can easily lower a 90kg adult. All rope handlers (belayers) must be at least 13 years of age and go through an orientation and complete a safety lesson before they can begin. At The Rock there are always instructors available to teach first-timers and the instruction is included in the entry price, and the walls are designed to accommodate all levels, from beginners to expert climbers. Over the school holidays The Rock is open to the public from 10am, seven days a week, with supervised kids’ holiday sessions running from 2pm4pm each Monday to Friday and are ideal for primary school age children. Bookings are recommended. For more information, phone 5221 3101, or visit www.rockadventures.com.au

RAIN Harvesting is a market-leading company which has been specialising in gutter protection products for the past 15 years. The business designs, manufactures and wholesales a number of high-quality gutter protection systems, as well as offering their business partners access to market leading products, knowledge and support. “We install high-quality gutter protection, which is critical to ensuring long term, low maintenance protection for your home,” said Jackie Hammond, marketing manager for Rain Harvesting. “Blue Mountain Mesh is an innovative gutter mesh system that prevents leaves and debris entering gutters and downpipes. “The mesh fits from the top outside edge of the gutter, across the gutter section and is then attached to the roof surface. “This then creates a platform that suspends leaves and debris above the roof gutter, allowing the majority of flammable material which builds-up to be blown away by wind action.” The business offers Blue Mountain Mesh in both aluminium and steel.

OVER the past two years, Troy Fynmore has seen his business go from strength to strength. Geelong and Surf Coast Gutter Cleaning specialises in gutter cleaning and gutter guard mesh installation. The company provides customers with a free no obligation quote from Geelong to Apollo Bay. “We have a professional system designed specifically for cleaning gutters and downpipes,” he said. “A motor driven vacuum with 40 metres of hose allows for high pressure extraction of leaves, dirt and mould in difficult to reach places without having to use any water. “In order to prevent gutters from filling with debris and leaves, we also install Blue Mountain

Mesh, as well as a custom-made gutter guard that protects against embers and reduces maintenance.” After each installation, customers receive a complete set of photographs of the work completed. “Working along the Surf Coast in smaller towns enables you to build valuable relationships with customers and attain a reputation for your high standard of services,” Fynmore said. “I believe it is a wonderful privilege to ensure that I provide the local communities the essential gutter maintenance and protection to keep their homes safe and protected.” For more information, phone Troy Fynmore on 0421 229 377. bellarinetimes.com.au

Tigers’ top start A COMPETITIVE ball hasn’t been kicked yet but the season has started on a good note for Torquay Tigers. The club has been able to upgrade its changerooms through the support of local businesses and sponsors, including Torquay Mitre 10, McCanns Plumbing Services and Walkers Tiles. Tigers’ committee member, Denis Ryan, said the support from businesses had been terrific. “The changerooms probably hadn’t

been touched for 30 years,” Ryan said. “So it is great to be able to improve them, and the support from local businesses and sponsors has been great in helping us achieve this.” Tigers will kick off their Bellarine Football League season against Modewarre on Easter Saturday at Spring Creek Reserve. After making it to the preliminary final last year, the Tigers will be looking to again stamp themselves as a team to beat this season.

Torquay Tigers Netball Club will kick off its season against Modewarre at Spring Creek Reserve on Saturday. The club has struggled for success in recent years but is confident of turning that around this year. Pictured at a recent training session were this season’s coaches (from left) Wayne, Kim, Julie and Trish. Photo: PETER MARSHALL

THE ANGLESEA Bowling Club is still celebrating the winning of the Ladies Division 4 Pennant Grand Final – in a very closely contested match against Clifton Springs. Well done ladies – we are very proud of you all. The last two club events for this season have now been completed. We congratulate the winners of the men’s triples: John Gray, Mitch Orlov and Bill Bubb, and the winners of the mixed pairs: Dawn and Alan Newton.

Easter schedule

Because of Easter, the club’s next Chicken Run, Members’ Draw and barbecue is scheduled for Friday, April 9. Bowls commence at 3pm but please put your name down before 1.30 pm. Yes, despite the fact that our normal caterers will be away, there will be a Sausage Sizzle if sufficient people put their name down early in the week.

Anniversary triples

The club’s annual Anniversary Triples (sponsored by Brian and Betty Butterworth) event will be held on Easter Monday. This is a mixed drawn game, commencing at 12.30pm in whites. All visitors to the area are invited to join us too, but please put your name down on the list outside the clubhouse as soon as possible – we would love to fill both of our synthetic greens.

BY GARRY KERR

THE club will hold its inaugural Surf Coast Junior Bream Fishing Classic on April 11. The event will be held on the Anglesea River and is open to all children who qualify to participate and encourage them these holidays to get outdoors and not only compete in this competition but enjoy a day out fishing. This community initiative will provide an alternative for parents and children during the holidays and provide an opportunity for children throughout the Surf Coast to be the first to participate in this event. Anglesea-Aireys Angling Club would like to thank all sponsors, the Surf Coast Times, Fisheries Victoria, Okuma, Silstar, Fishcare Victoria, the Great Ocean Road Outdoor Centre and Anglesea Paddle boat hire. This is a great opportunity for all kids aged 6-16 inclusive to compete in this event. For more information, see the flyer inserted in today’s paper.

Illegal fishing again to the fore

A 42-year-old Teesdale man received a 12-month good behaviour bond and was ordered to donate $400 to a community volunteer organisation after pleading guilty to three fisheries offences in the

Colac Magistrate’s Court last week. Andras Toth pleaded guilty to using commercial fishing equipment without authority, attempting to take fish from inland waters without a recreational fishing licence and having unattended lines. Ballarat Fisheries officer, Heath Cameron, told the court unattended fishing rods set in the river were discovered by Fisheries officers patrolling the Woady Yaloak, River between Ballarat and Colac. Toth was interviewed by Fisheries officers on returning to the property where he admitted he had left fishing lines in the water unattended. Cameron told the court Toth also admitted to using commercial fishing equipment (fyke nets) he had taken from the machinery shed on the property. Magistrate Ron Saines found Toth guilty without conviction and ordered him to attend a programme with the emphasis on freshwater marine conservation. Anyone with information relating to the possession or use of illegal fishing such as the Fyke nets pictured above should contact Fisheries Victoria’s offence reporting line, 13 FISH (133 474).
