JOBS SAFE BY ELEANOR WOODS

SURF COAST residents and retailers are celebrating the news that shopping outlet giant Direct Factory Outlets (DFO) has been saved from going into receivership – meaning Torquay Central has escaped potential closure. Torquay Central, which is owned by DFO, was at risk of being caught up in the business blunder but DFO’s parent company Austexx has stepped in and bailed out the struggling shopping chain. It was reported the company’s chief executive, Geoff Porz, and managing director, Frank De Rango, planned to recapitalise the business, which is said to be heavily in debt. A deal was struck last week, in which banks agreed

Surf Forecast

to let Austexx complete the final building stages of its Melbourne South Wharf DFO project, which is believed to be at the core of the company’s problems. From there, the South Wharf complex would be sold to try and recover company debt. DFO representatives did not wish to comment on whether or not the unraveling business would affect the Torquay Central wing of operations but news the company was not going into receivership was met with relief from workers at the Torquay shopping centre – some who had feared they might lose their jobs. Lisa Kos, from lifestyle fashion store, Lorna Jane, was among the relieved. “We were a bit worried here. We thought we might lose our jobs. When you don’t know what’s going

on, you worry a bit,” Kos said. The single mother of two said she was grateful not to have to “start again”. “I really rely on my income. I would have had to look for other work. “If shops started to close down the place would lose its life. It’s such a vibrant shopping centre here. People love wandering around and enjoying the area. If it went bust it’d be a real pity. It would turn into a ghost town,” she said. Other workers were not concerned saying they had been assured by bosses it would be “business as usual”. Manager of Jay Jays, Emma Page, was told that any problems lay further up the ladder and would not affect her or her employees.

“The issue is being dealt with behind the scenes with the higher level of the business and we have been told it will not affect us at shop level. “We were a bit worried at the start but our company got on to us straight away to settle us down and reassure us that it wouldn’t filter down to our level,” Page said. Torquay Commerce and Tourism Association president Martin Duke was pleased that businesses at Torquay Central would remain intact. “It’s fantastic news. We are very glad the DFO situation has been resolved. We would be devastated if any shop at all in Torquay were to close. “This news is excellent. The jobs will stay. The more businesses in town, the more local residents doing well,” Duke said.

This week, council will start public consultation on the most important future planning project Torquay, Jan Juc and Bellbrae will have seen. The Torquay Jan Juc 2040 Sustainable Futures project seeks to take a new direction in helping a community define its future; an approach that takes into account our unique sense of place, our community’s values and our community’s great capacity to be engaged. In 2009, when council abandoned the Spring Creek Urban Growth Framework Plan, we recognised we need a new way to address the high growth pressure Torquay in particular is now under. The 2040 project will deal with a significant array of questions including how we can live in greater harmony with the environment, as well as defining final urban settlement boundaries. On Wednesday, August 25, council will launch an online forum at http://haveyoursaysurfcoast.com.au This forum will provide opportunities for you to comment on key questions the 2040 project raises, in an informal and comfortable atmosphere. This is council’s first electronic consultation forum, as we continue to work towards engaging our community more in planning for the future. However, 2040 will also involve more traditional methods of consultation.

Listening posts

Listening posts will be set up in locations where people are undertaking day to day activities to provide an opportunity for people to gain information and provide information to inform the 2040 project. Look out for the 2040 Surfboard at the following times and locations: Gilbert Street, Torquay, on Friday, August 27, from midday until 2pm, Bell Street, Torquay on Saturday, August 28,

Walking the beat

Council has engaged Village Well to help undertake the first phase of consultation for the 2040 Project. Village Well staff will be walking around Torquay talking to people about their view of the future of Torquay/Jan Juc on Friday, September 2, 2010 and capturing this information to inform outcomes of the 2040 project.

Stay in touch with Torquay Jan Juc 2040

If you would like to be kept informed about what is happening with the 2040 project, you can subscribe to the electronic newsletter by visiting www.surfcoast.vic.gov.au/2040.htm

2040 workshops

Come along and participate in workshop sessions that will inform the 2040 Project. The workshops will explore views of the growth of Torquay/Jan Juc and the issues that are important to informing a growth management plan for the future. Workshops will be held: At the Bellbrae Hall (90 School Road) on Saturday, August 28, from 2pm until 3.30pm, Torquay Bowls Club (47 The Esplanade) on Thursday, September 9, from 6.30pm until 8pm, TIA Hall (8-12 Price Street) on Friday, September 10, from 10am until midday, Spring Creek Reserve Pavillion (1A Geelong Road) on Wednesday, September 15, from 2pm-3.30pm, Torquay Surf Lifesaving Club (55 Surf Beach Drive) on Saturday, September 18, from 1pm-2.30pm. Numbers are limited for each session so please RSVP at least two days before the session you wish to attend by contacting Claire O’Connor on

5261 0535 or email haveyoursay@surfcoast.vic. gov.au. Additional workshops will be conducted if required.

Victorian Commission for Gaming Regulation hearing

On Friday, councillor Rose Hodge and council’s planning manager attended the Victorian Commission for Gaming Regulation’s hearing into the Beach Hotel’s proposed placement of 30 electronic gaming machines in Jan Juc. Council presented a community survey conducted at random on the proposal, which we trust will help augment the community case presented on the day in the commission’s assessment of the potential socio-economic impact of gaming machines on Jan Juc. The commission’s decision will not be the final say on the matter, with VCAT to make the final decision on the Beach Hotel’s planning application, which council did not support. Council can also consider appealing any decision of the commission to allow gaming machines to VCAT, separate of the planning application process. Council will continue to robustly defend its decision not to grant a planning permit for the Beach Hotel’s redevelopment application and installation of electronic gaming machines. The VCAT hearing on the planning application is expected to be held in November, by which time we expect the VCGR will have completed its assessment of the placement of gaming machines. I congratulate community members who have been involved in this process.

Too close to call BY ALISON MARTIN AS CORANGAMITE’s election result hangs in the balance, the only certainty for the community is that every vote has definitely counted. Unlike the neighbouring Corio electorate, which re-elected Australian Labour Party Richard Marles with a five per cent swing, Corangamite will not be decided until the thousands of postal and absentee votes have been counted. When the Surf Coast Times went to press, the result was too close to call, with neither defending ALP member, Darren Cheeseman, or Liberal Party candidate Sarah Henderson willing to claim victory or concede. Early polling booth results indicated there was less than 1000 votes between the two major party candidates. Australia Greens candidate Mike Lawrence had recorded a swing of 2.95 per cent with 8,553 votes and Family First candidate Ann Wojczuk gained 1,551 votes. Independent SallyAnn Brown had 1,131 and Liberal Democrat candidate, Nathan Timmins had polled 365 votes. Cheesman said while there had been early calls for him to claim a win, there were too many postal votes to count and it was quite possible there would be a recount. “I would like to thank everyone on the Bellarine and Surf Coast for their support; it’s been an incredibly hard fought campaign. “It shows a people’s campaign can actually stand up to a big money campaign. If I am reelected and the Federal Labor Government is re-elected to govern, with the assistance of the

independents, I will make sure every single project promised in this election is delivered. “If I am re-elected under a Tony Abbott Government, I will hold him accountable for the open cheque book promises made by the local liberal candidate,� he said. Henderson agreed that with counting continuing yesterday, the vote was too close to indicate a clear winner.

“We are likely to know more in the next 48 hours. “I am really proud of the campaign that has been run locally. “It’s been a very positive campaign and we want to thank and pay tribute to the many Liberal Party members and supporters. “I’ve got my fingers crossed; we’re still hanging in there,� she said.

All the action at the polling booths: Darren Cheeseman votes at Torquay and Sarah Henderson votes at Highton.

news 03 Bunnings vote BY ALISON MARTIN TORQUAY residents with an interest in the proposed Bunnings development at the new West Coast Business Park are encouraged to attend tomorrow’s Surf Coast Shire Council meeting. The controversial application to build a “small format Bunnings store� has met with opposition from local business operators who believe the proposal will have a negative impact on traders and conflicts with the park’s planning. Councillors will be asked to vote on the multinational hardware store’s planning permit application at Wednesday’s meeting after considering 89 public submissions and a detailed report on the proposal. Council will also take into account the findings of a council-commissioned independent Peer Review of the Economic Assessment carried out initially by Essential Economics, as part of Bunnings’ application. The Peer Review indicates there are “some differences of view in relation to the findings by Essential Economics�. However the review states “taken as a whole, the consultant concurs with the key findings of Essential Economics, namely that there is significant escape expenditure at present in hardware, garden wares and selected homewares that will be merchandised by Bunnings and that there will be a significant net community benefit arising from the development�. A copy of the Peer Review and tomorrow night’s agenda is available online at www.surfcoastshire. vic.gov.au If council approves, rejects or approves the application with conditions, its decision can be appealed at the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal by either Bunnings or local opponents. The Surf Coast Shire meeting will be held at 6pm on Wednesday, August 25 at the council chambers in Torquay.

WELL known Torquay artist Nick Morris is inspiring kids to pursue their creative dreams. Morris has been conducting screen printing workshops at Bellbrae Primary School for the last month. “It has been just fantastic. The kids have been so enthusiastic and for me it has been really rewarding. “If I can inspire just one kid to believe in what they are creating, then it is worth it,� Morris said. “The result has been great. These guys have done a really good job.� The workshops involved lessons in history and examples of printmaking works and artists, practical tips and hands on experience. The Year 5 and 6 students each created their own printing screens made from their choice of handdrawn pictures, photographs or images. “We wanted to give the kids real freedom to explore. “The whole concept was about teaching kids another style of art work and to teach them to be loose and have fun. Mistakes are your friend; that’s the beauty of art. Some of the best work I’ve done has come from stuffing up,� Morris said, gearing the kids up for their practical lesson. Year 6 student Micky Robinson, 11, said it was so fun. “I enjoyed being creative.� Another Year 5 student, Bellbrae’s Jess Aylett, 10, was equally excited.“It’s awesome because you can do whatever you want with your artwork. It’s really fun and it teaches you a lot. Art is one of my favourite subjects,� she said. Nick Morris is a well known and highly regarded Surf Coast artist and is currently on display at Tigerfish Gallery in Torquay’s Bell Street as well as online.

Torquay artist Nick Morris gives his time to Bellbrae Primary School students to inspire them to follow their artistic dreams.

Stem the growth of cancer

Aireys development in pipeline BY ELEANOR WOODS AIREYS Inlet land owner and developer Ron Diamond has been sitting on a gold mine. Diamond said it was time to develop his prime real estate at the Aireys Inlet River shops and is investing $3.5 million in the venture, which will change the face of his property. The Surf Coast Shire confirmed the plans had been submitted and were currently on public display. Diamond said he had lived in Aireys Inlet for 30 years and still owned a holiday home, which neighboured the development site, to the right of the string of shops that lines the river. “I’ve had the land for a long time. It’s had a garden supplies place on it and then a plumbing and earthmoving place. We were wondering what we were going to do with it. “We thought about it for a long time and we felt that we wanted to stay in keep with what is already there. “It’s a commercial property but there are is also a little jetty and kids fishing in the river.” The development involves building a large shop at the right end of the existing shops and above it, three two-bedroom apartments, which will all be leased. The current tenant at the rear of the site, Kalbaru Construction, will also benefit from a ‘facelift’ to their office and headquarters, Diamond said. “They are really keen to stay on,” he said. Melbourne’s FMD Architects has worked with Diamond to create the plans. “They have produced are some great images of what it might look like. It’s exciting,” he said.

TORQUAY florist Pearl and Boston is raising funds for cancer research in the lead up to Daffodil Day, this Friday. Owner Lu Ellmer is selling beautiful, healthy, radiant daffodil blooms for $5 a bunch and is donating all proceeds to the Cancer Council to try and stem the growth of cancer throughout the country. “It’s just a really worthy cause to support so we thought we’d try and do something to help out” she said. “I did a bit of research and noone in the area was really doing anything in support of Daffodil Day so we thought it would be a good opportunity to get onboard.” Ellmer and Rach Linnell, who also works at Pearl and Boston, both agreed the Torquay community was great place to fundraise. “Everyone is really supportive

of each other and I’m sure people would love to get behind this. And who wouldn’t want a lovely bunch of daffodils,” Ellmer said. Daffodil Day is in its 17th year this year. The Cancer Council Victoria is hoping to raise $2 million to help continue to support people living with the disease. All funds raised go toward cancer research, prevention programs and support services for cancer patients and their families. Half of all Australians are diagnosed with some form of cancer by the age of 85. Around 115,000 will be diagnosed this year alone, 133 of those will be Surf Coast residents.

Your future, your view AN INTERACTIVE website is launched tomorrow, enabling Torquay and Jan Juc residents to have their say on their town’s future. The Surf Coast Shire launches www. haveyoursaysurfcoast.com.au as one means of having input into development of the towns. Torquay and Jan Juc 2040 presents a variety of means to take onboard views to help the shire plan for a sustainable future. Mayor Libby Coker welcomed the project saying it ensured ‘you’ can get involved.

“In 2009, council concluded that we need to take a different approach to planning the future of coastal areas facing high growth pressure; an approach that takes into account our sense of place and our community’s great capacity to be engaged in its future. “The Torquay Jan Juc 2040 project is about working together to build a sustainable future, managing growth together and ensuring we preserve the things we value about our community and our environment. “I invite you to get involved,” Coker said.

People can have their say in a variety of ways including the website, listening polls, a village well as well as through workshops. Listening posts will be set up for people to gain and provide information to the 2040 project. A Village Well also hopes to aid consultation. Or, if you prefer a deeper involvement you can attend workshop sessions that will explore views of the growth of Torquay and Jan Juc and the issues that are important to informing a growth management plan for the future.

South right experience BY ELEANOR WOODS SOUTHERN right whales continue to bask along Surf Coast shores. Newcombe’s Trisha Bowers was lucky enough to view these spectacular beauties at Cumberland Creek and Wye River last week. “It is just the most remarkable thing to watch. They are so beautiful and healing,” Bowers said. The whale watcher has been following the gentle giants and is enthralled by their majestic qualities. “When you get a chance to see them you will be so amazed. “They are absolutely beautiful and so powerful.”

“A mother and her calf played in the wintery waters with another pregnant female for several hours while onlookers watched in awe. “We are just so lucky along this coast to be able to see these creatures. Locals and tourist just love it and it’s totally free,” she said. “Open your eyes. “They are there. All you have to do is look,” Bowers said. If you want to do a spot of whale watching for yourself then follow the beautiful beasts on the go to www. visitsurfcoast.com which regularly updates reported sightings and might be able to point you in the southern right direction.

Naked ambition BY ELEANOR WOODS WHAT started as a dare from a friend turned into a little piece of history for a handful of Surf Coasters on Friday. Aireys Inlet’s James “Jimmy” Healey was dared to brave the icy winter waters and surf nude for a mere $20. Upon taking up the bet, interest was sparked in the absurdity of the feat and the coffers from his colleagues grew to $123 dollars in cold, hard cash. It was 4.20pm, not your average afternoon “knock-off”; about 20 workmates, friends, family, and one old guy with a video camera, watched from the Aireys Inlet lookout as the brazen 22-yearold ditched his towel and tore down the beach. Already shaking in the chill wind, but clearly pumped, Healey offered few words before he lunged into 12 degree water and took to the 6-8 ft sets. “Wish me luck!” he shrieked. Onlookers howled in horror and delight as the surfer took a few waves on the head before dropping in on a friend and nailing his first arctic ride in the spotlight. Friends had brought an array of suggestive snacks for the event – bananas, hot cheerio sausages, Nobby’s nuts and Cheese and Bacon Balls. The man who dared the apprentice carpenter to take the plunge, Terry Lornie, 26, was among the crowd. “I’m cold just standing here but the adrenaline must have kicked in. He’ll be sweet,” Lornie said. “It doesn’t matter who is out there. He’s got priority.” After a solid 20 minute effort, Healey

emerged from the surf, blue and grey and $123 dollars better off. “I was burning out there. It felt like my skin was on fire. My core temperature must have dropped so quickly,” Healey said, shivering. “I wouldn’t have lasted much longer. I was fine for a while but now I feel a bit crook,” he offered, as he threw on his clothes. His frozen digits could barely hold his new-found funds and he dropped them at his feet. “It’s all good; something different. Now it’s home to have a bath and watch the footy I think. I’ll be right once I have a drink.” As the crowd dispersed, a rainbow formed over the break and a Southern right whale pierced the glassy blue to see what all the commotion was about. “This is definitely a day to remember,” Healey said.

The coast’s new best friends

NATIVE plant and animal life along our coastline now have some new best friends looking after them with the Great Ocean Road Coast Committee’s new three-member conservation team on the job. Conservation workers Jannes Demetrious and Alex Schipperen recently joined Georgina Beale who was appointed to the position of conservation

officer in May this year. “Our new conservation team has been established to deliver the Natural Values Project, one of four projects that together make up our three-year $1.35 million Great Ocean Road Renewal Program, which has received Australian Government funding support,� said GORCC boss

Richard Davies. “The team’s focus over the next three years will be on tackling the greatest threat to our coast’s natural environment: invasive weeds. “By blitzing these noxious enemies through sustained and concerted weed control works, we will give our native vegetation the best chance of

reclaiming the land, which in turn will result in improved habitat for our native animal life. “Already the team has been hard at work decimating weed infestations at a number of locations along the coast. To get onboard a coastal volunteer group contact GORCC on 5220 5055.

The conservation team is (from left) Alex Schipperen, Georgina Beale and Jannes Demetrious.

We care for the coast THE GREAT Ocean Road Coast Committee has announced applications are now open for the second round of its 2010 Coastal Grants program. Individuals, organisations and community groups can apply for up to $1,000 in funds before September

30. GORCC CEO Richard Davies said $5000 in total was available for people working on projects that care for the coast and community between Torquay and Lorne. “We are very fortunate to have plenty of people in our community who share our passion for the coast and

who help to look after it on a voluntary basis. Our Coastal Grants program aims to support such efforts by providing funds for a range of environmental and community activities taking place in our coastal reserves,� he said. For more information go to www.gorcc.com.au

Juc park state winner BY ELEANOR WOODS AUSTRALIAN parks and industry association Parks and Leisure Australia recently announced Jan Juc’s Bob Pettit Reserve as the best Play Space Park in the state. Now the park is in the running for the national title in the PLA 2010 Awards of Excellence. The awards take in nine categories, including play space, open space, leisure facilities as well as events and planning. The Surf Coast Shire developed the Coast to Creek District Play Space, at Bob Pettit Reserve, as a unique and inspiring journey with the Jan Juc community. The council’s Community Playground Planning Group worked with Mary Jeavons Landscape Architects to develop a landscape and

playground concept. Colour, shape and texture used reflected features of Jan Juc ‘coast’ and ‘creek’ environments. The ‘coast to creek’ theme also highlights the evolution of the area from its original natural state, through the era of agricultural, then residential development and finally with restoration of some of the area’s original biodiversity. The unique features of this play space include an accessible playground structure with thematic artwork panels, ceramic tile work featured on striking bluestone shards, an intriguing and evolving textural sensory garden area as well as indigenous planted areas creating ‘waves’ down the gentle slope of the site. The area also includes a half court basketball and netball area, a skate area, a soccer field, a picnic shelter, BBQ and picnic tables.

The play space was created from the visions, inspirations and ‘heart’ of the local community, a council representative said. “There have been many community ‘hands on’ components to this project, with over 500 people being involved in artwork, planting and other site features. The end result captures the community ‘spirit’ and passion and often when it appeared too hard, the community found a way to make it happen.� The national competition will be decided on September 15 at PLA’s national conference in Glenelg, in South Australia. Volunteers pictured working on a mural at the Bob Pettit Reserve’s Coast to Creek District Play Space, which was celebrated as the best Play Space Park in Victoria.

Brain injury sufferer warns students BY RACHEL DELANEY

Brain injury sufferer Grayden Moore pictured with his mother, Laurelei at Torquay School where he spke to students about the dangers of not wearing a safety helmet.

GRAYDEN MOORE was skateboarding down a hill without a helmet just like he’d done “a million times before� when he fell and almost died. Witnesses to the accident, which happened in 2004, said they saw him bounce on his head three times and were surprised he survived at all. Grayden was in a coma for 18 months and continues to be rehabilitated, and says “It’s a lifelong journey now.� Last week, Moore shared his story with students at Torquay College during Acquired Brain Injury

Awareness Week. With the help of the Surf Coat Shire, Victoria Police and ARCsupport, schools across the region took part in the Brain Injury Prevention Programme. Moore was guest speaker at Torquay College, with attentive Year 7 and 8 students listening to his story of reckless choices and dire consequences. The top of Moore’s head had to be removed and rebuilt with artificial material, and he now lives in an assisted living facility in Melbourne. “The damage is irrevocable but I aim to be able to be more active and to move with more coordination.�

“I lost my whole world. I lost my life when I made the decision to not wear a helmet. So wear a helmet, kids. Just remember, make a smart choice and wear a helmet,� Moore said. Jacqui Pierce, who works for Karingal Community Living, of which ARCsupport is a branch, is an active participant in the awareness campaign. “We conduct the awareness programme at any time, not just in the awareness week, and we welcome any schools to take part,� she said. If you are interested in the prevention programme visiting your school, contact Jacqui on 5258 4205.

Torquay P-12 College Consultation Torquay P-9 College Council has developed a term three consultation process to gather information to help plan for the school’s expansion through to Year 12. The college is keen to seek input from the school and local community.

On Wednesday, August 25, the college will host a series of workshops at 1.30pm, 4pm and 7pm. These times were chosen to provide the school and local community a number of options to attend. These workshops will be wide-ranging and participants will be able to ask questions related to the P-12 college. To help the discussion, the workshops will be facilitated in table groups by parent members of the College Council and the Parents and Friends Group. Following these workshops a report will be prepared and circulated through the community as a platform for further discussion. In the last week of term three a guided bus tour will allow interested people to view and P-12 College. Participant numbers will be limited. Impressions and ideas gathered during the bus tour will inform further discussion and planning in term four. If you are interested in attending a workshop and/or bus tour, please register your interest by contacting the school’s address torquay.p9.co@edumail.vic.gov.au please write consultation in the subject line. Any further inquiries can be directed to college assistant principal, Nick Lynch.

Super insurance or not?

BY PAUL MARKS

WHEN considering personal protection insurance most people neglect the consideration of using a superannuation structure to provide cover and generally opt to have individual ownership. There are five key issues to consider when comparing either option and the first one is cash flow. Having your superannuation fund pay your premiums may free up your flow of cash because the fund will deduct the insurance premiums from your superannuation balance.

THE MARKETS have been nervous and undecided all week with disappointing economic news being met with sharp falls. There is growing evidence that the world economy is not recovering, with an increasing number of reports warning of danger ahead. The US government has thrown everything it can at the economy in order to kick start growth, building up astonishing levels of debt, only to find the economy completely unresponsive. Unemployment in the US is still nudging 10 per cent and during the week 500,000 new claims for unemployment benefits were filed for the week ending 14 August – the highest figure for nine months. The Dow Jones promptly fell 200 points. Greece is also back in the headlines.

When these bubbles pop in a weak global environment, this is likely to serve as a double whammy to these countries, particularly Australia and Canada, whose currencies are the strongest, and where private indebtedness is as bad or worse than it has ever been in the US or the UK.

Spiegel Online International this week reported that “the austerity measures that were supposed to fix Greece’s problems are dragging down the country’s economy. Stores are closing, tax revenues are falling and unemployment has hit an unbelievable 70 per cent in some places”. The latest Quarterly Outlook from Danish investment bank, Saxo Bank, suggests that not only the Greek crisis but the PIIGS crisis has not been contained. The bank also expresses grave concerns for commodity based countries such as Australia. “Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Norway and Sweden are all suffering under the weight of tremendous housing bubbles – each of them worse than the US housing bubble in terms of price

On the other hand, premiums may be more competitive as the superannuation fund can claim a deduction for premiums on death and permanent disability insurance held on behalf of a member that usually is not available to policies held outside of superannuation. Some insurers may also offer automatic acceptance limits through group superannuation policies giving you access to a certain level of cover without the need for a medical check. Payment rules within a superannuation fund may be more onerous when making a claim as it is necessary to meet both the insurer’s policy rules as well as the superannuation fund requirements. This is particularly important for disability and critical

If cash flow is tight, this option alleviates the need to dip into after-tax income that may not be readily available for use. The down-side of this option is that unless you make additional contributions into superannuation you may be eating into your retirement savings. Flexibility is another consideration as to what personal protection path to take. Some superannuation funds generally use only one provider and the beneficiaries of the policy are limited to those allowed under superannuation laws. In comparison, insurance policies outside of superannuation will allow you to shop around for the best premium and perhaps give more flexibility to nominate to whom you wish to leave the insurance benefit to in the event of your death.

Paw things BY RACHEL DELANY

THE much needed and cherished Geelong Animal Welfare Society (GAWS) is holding a ‘Cause for Paws’ Hospital Appeal. All members of the community are being invited to get involved by collecting gold coin donations on Friday, September 3. GAWS has been doing great work for the community since 1956 and needs your help. Just one dollar from each child and adult will go a long way in building the much needed animal hospital. Fundraising organiser Nadine Williams says “The aim is to do this every year. Over the years we’ve been using Cardinia Vet Clinic and they have been just great, but we find with the transporting of animals to and fro, it would be a lot more humane and time efficient if we could treat animals here at GAWS.”

The only animal welfare organisation in the area, GAWS has a boarding kennel, rescues strays, returns lost pets and re-houses animals. Closely modeled on a smaller version of the Lort Smith in Melbourne, the aim of the animal hospital is to provide a benevolent service for animals by offering cheaper basic animal care. For those in financial need, rather than get rid of their pet, GAWS wants to be able to prioritise the welfare of the animal and de-flea or give vaccines so the pet can remain with their owner. Nadine says “There are so many good reasons to have a pet and everyone should be able to have one.” A casual dress day is part of the appeal - schools, businesses, groups, individuals, families, anyone interested, is asked to join in and help raise money. So, dig deep and help Geelong Animal Welfare Society in their bid to help our furry friends. For all details contact GAWS on 5248 2091 or email Nadine wildendeen@bigpond.com

To adorable to turn the other way – dig deep for animals that need a helping hand.

Learn respect with cultural exchange BY RACHEL DELANY

Toolern Vale Primary School students, Cherrie Vella, 11, and Alex Robinson, 9, pictured with Narana Creations’ programme director, Norm Stanley.

NARANA Creations is one of only a few Aboriginal craft and cultural interpretation centers in the country – and it is right on our backdoor step. The centre was established in 1996 and focuses on education, sharing with its visitors indigenous history and culture. Norm Stanley has been conducting a Cultural Education Programme at the centre for 13 years and is passionate about traditional culture and keeping it alive.

Schools from all over Victoria visit the centre and take part in many activities which Stanley hoped would ‘bring a newer understanding of aboriginal history and culture’. “We share our culture in an entertaining and relaxed way and cater to people of all ages, from pre-school kids to senior citizens,” he said. The Cultural Education Programme includes building respect for one another by respecting differences, and appreciating elders and the land we all live on. “Aboriginal people survived for so long on

this land because there was knowledge about seasonal changes, different plants, animal movements, and this traditional life is really important to share and understand. “My whole aim is to make sure that the children of today understand the richness of true Australian culture and look at the land as a place to be respected,” Stanley said. Toolern Vale Primary School student Cherrie Vella, 11, described the programme at Narana Creations as “pretty amazing, especially looking at all the artwork and listening to the didgeridoo.”

Display cabins only TORQUAY residents need not fret about the arrival of five portable cabins on the foreshore at Fishermans Beach, yesterday. The cabins are on display as part of the Victorian Caravan Parks Association’s annual conference, which is being held at Crown Plaza Torquay, this week. CEO of Great Ocean Road Council Committee, Richard Davies, said GORCC granted permission for VIC Parks to use the crown land. He said the Surf Coast Shire had been informed about the temporary use of the land.

Planning permits had been approved and the turf would be restored upon the removal of the cabins. Crown Plaza’s general manager Jason Burnett assured residents the cabins were display only and were not being used for accommodation. “We had a few locals getting a bit worried but it’s all okay.” “We have a great conference happening this week with about 240 people attending. There are 30 exhibitors and many people will be out and about enjoying the region,” he said.

Shadow Minister for Public Transport & Shadow Minister for Roads

SECURITY DOORS

Dear Editor The full page advertisement “Making a Stand for Torquay� has been wrongly headed. It should read “Making a Stand for Mitre 10�. Council decided to establish a business park in the shire and the opportunity was there for all Torquay, and other businesses to establish in this precinct but with one or two exceptions the majority have decided to remain in their present location and protest at any development that may become competitive to their current business. A business park is exactly that, and a business wishing to establish within the business park precinct should have the right to do so providing they meet the development guidelines set for that development. The fact council have referred the matter for public opinion shows a weakness by council in not being strong enough to administer the guidelines they set and seek further public imput. It appears objections are set on Bunnings having purchased sufficient blocks to establish their business and the size of their advertising. We all know the size of Bunnings stores and the advertising on their buildings. It appears they have compromised the height and size of their advertising which is a credit to their desire to meet some of the wishes of the community, and they certainly have the right to consolidate a number of blocks. Lets face it the town is not adverse to large unsightly advertising signs when you enter the town of which there appears to be no boundaries, so why the concern about Bunnings. Remember the objections to McDonalds signage, you now have trouble finding the big M in amongst the others now littering the highway. It will also be interesting to see if the large building presently under construction will be painted in national colours of blue and orange and carry their very prominent signage. If a business is conducted on a customer friendly competitive basis it will survive and should not have to rely on council for protection, and as the town

continues to develop at such a rate there will be more competition come to town which will be of benefit to all residents. Councilors should show strength to administer as they have been given the job to do for the benefit of all residents and not set out to change direction to protect a few. Dave O’Dowd Surf Coast

you that. I guess it’s progress. It’s not just the fine, but my girlfriend and I have decided to finish the house and move to Ulladulla. Are the Infringement Officers friendlier up there? Only time will tell, I guess. Sean Cole Ocean Views

Recycling awareness

Unfair fine angers Dear Editor, It’s a Saturday morning and I’m coming back from Geelong with a load of spotted gum timber floor boards my friends and I intend to lay over the next two days. After 15 years in Torquay, my girlfriend and I are building our first house. It’s an exciting time. The load was heavy and the driveway was too steep for the old Falcon to handle. I parked with the front of my car over the footpath with the trailer up the drive as far as she’ll go. I spent the next three hours unloading timber in small handfuls from trailer to living room until the trailer is empty. When I jump in my car to move it I find a sticker on my windscreen. It’s an infringement notice for $72 for being parked over the footpath. I’m so dismayed by this I just can’t work it out. I must have made 50 trips back and forth to my car and somewhere in that time one of our friendly parking infringement officers has come up and issued me with the fine. I’m wondering whatever happened to common sense right about now? Could it have been possible for him to pop his head in the doorway, say hi and issue me with a warning? Or is it standard practice to just watch from a distance until the coast is clear, sneak up and bang. I’m disappointed. I will refuse to pay the fine. I already know where that will get me. Torquay has changed over the years. Most will tell

Dear Editor, I am pleased that people in the Bellarine have made a start on recycling waste with greater social awareness. Back home in Cambridge, England, we have been recycling for about five years with less waste - about 50 per cent is now achievable. We now have three wheelie bins: one green, one black and one blue - look out Bellarine they may be after your waste soon for recycling. Remember, by recycling more plastics, bottles, cans, newspapers and junk mail you not only save Australia, you save the planet. Timothy Grout Queenscliff

Toilet upgrade Dear Editor, It was with some dismay I read of the proposal to relocate the toilets at Ocean Grove to behind the Coles building. This is my favourite place to park as other cars cannot back into you and shopping trolleys and small children are less likely to be running out at you. The toilets certainly need an upgrade but I think their central position is fine and cars have to proceed with caution through all the car park but even more especially there. My plea is to upgrade the toilets where they are now. Dawn Barwon Heads

The contract has been awarded to Australian construction company, Abigroup Limited, and will create up to 200 jobs. Water Minister, Tim Holding, said work would start on the 59 kilometre pipeline in a matter of weeks. “The Melbourne to Geelong pipeline is an essential part of Barwon Water and the State Government’s plan to provide a secure water supply to Victoria’s second largest city,” Holding said. “The pipeline will connect Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast to the Government’s major water projects including the Sugarloaf Pipeline and the desalination plant.” “The pipeline will link Barwon Water’s Lovely

Banks basins in Geelong with the Melbourne system at Cowies Hill, near Werribee, and deliver up to 16 billion litres of water a year. “More than 60 towns and suburbs across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and parts of the Surf Coast stand to benefit from the pipeline when it is completed at the end of 2011,” Holding said. Member for South Barwon, Michael Crutchfield, said the Melbourne to Geelong pipeline and other local water projects would ensure that households in the region would be able to come off severe water restrictions. “Recent rainfall has significantly boosted Geelong’s water storages but the real relief will come from the certainty of water from the Anglesea Borefield, Melbourne to Geelong pipeline and recycled water projects,” Crutchfield said. The Victorian Government has committed $20 million towards the project, with Barwon Water customers funding the balance.

Tuesday 24 August 2010

Sport achievers SIX years ago Grovedale College began its Sports Academy Programme, and it has proven to be a great success, attracting many students who are passionate about sport to the school. The Sports Academy Programme has recently expanded to encompass all year levels at the college, and offers students the opportunity to receive top quality sports coaching. In Years 7 and 8 students can choose between football, netball, basketball, soccer, cricket and tennis, and receive specialist training equivalent to an hour a week. For Years 9 to 12 there is significant training time offered to the students, and they choose between football, netball and a fitness stream. There is a link to academic study in relation to their sport, and Years 9 to 12 receive the equivalent of one day a week in training. Former Australian netballer Susan Meaney oversees the netball training, and the Geelong Cats’ players Steve Johnson and James Kelly oversee the

AFL programme. In Year 11 there are four units that the student can complete which contribute towards the Tertiary Entrance Ranking (TER) and grant the students a Certificate II in Sports and Recreation. There are great expectations of students taking part in the Sports Academy Programme and their behaviour and attitude is monitored throughout their schooling, not just in their coaching sessions. College manager of operations, physical education teacher and Sports Academy organiser Mick Lenaghan has worked at the college since 1984. Mick says, “We are really excited about the programme because the outcomes are wide-ranging and offer great pathways and links for students. It’s a real motivator and can keep some students on track and happy, doing specialist training of their passion.” Please contact assistant principal Davin Reid or programme director Mick Lenaghan at Grovedale College on 5245 4545 for more information.

Students work out at the Grovedale College as part of the Sports Academy Programme.

St Leonards open day BY ALISON MARTIN ST LEONARDS Primary School has a proud record of academic achievement and now has a new $2 million state-of-the-art building and resources. Principal Natalie Jenkins said with 100 students enrolled, it was a close school community and the teachers were all highly experienced, providing students with individual learning opportunities. “Academically, our students perform well above the state average, with five Year 6 students gaining places in an accelerated learning programme for 2010. “We have a strong arts focus… we have the Song Room Programme, a specialist drama teacher and we are involved in the St Leonards Yacht Club Art Show,” Natalie said. Sport is important, with students playing in three school basketball teams and local soccer, netball and football and ‘Walk and Ride to School’ is encouraged once a month. “We offer an extensive Prep orientation programme, promote the Better Buddies Programme and our staff provide programmes

to extend children and assist those who need it,” Natalie said. “The school philosophy is firmly based on the belief that every student has the ability to learn, and that this is best achieved in a happy, safe and positive environment. The delivery of high quality programmes maximises student outcomes in all areas of the curriculum.” The new school facilities feature open learning spaces, a multi-purpose area and administration space with an energy efficient, sustainable design. The historic original school building will be transformed into a library learning centre and the school grounds will soon be landscaped and a new oval and play area created. Families of 2011 Prep students in the St Leonards and Indented Head areas are encouraged to arrange a tour of the school, meet the staff and see the children in their stimulating environment. The school will be open for parents, friends, community members and prospective families to visit and see our classes at work between 9am and 11am on Thursday, September 2, 2010. Contact Natalie Jenkins at St Leonards PS in Murradoc Road by phone on 5257 1460.

Rainbow of healthy eating

AUSTRALIAN avocado growers have launched a resource kit for early childhood educators, to encourage young children to eat a ‘rainbow of colourful vegies and fruit’. Research has found children needed to be offered a food up to 10 times before they try it - and many more for it to become a preference. Joining forces with childhood educator, Shelley Woodrow and Nadine McCrea, avocado growers believe the resource kit will help address the national priority of increasing the consumption of fruit and vegetables among children aged three to five. "According to a National Nutrition Survey, 25 per cent of two-four year olds had eaten no fruit, and 22 per cent had eaten no vegetables that day," author and early childhood educator, Shelley Woodrow, said. "Lifelong food choices are established during early childhood, with 70 per cent of food habits established by three years old,� she said. When you think about the hours that your child spends on school activities, it is equivalent to a day at the office for an adult! School and homework can often take up to 8 hours a day, so kid’s concentration

and energy levels need to be maintained so they can survive this everyday routine. Daily schedules can place a huge amount of pressure and stress on your child. Nutrients that help reduce stress are B vitamin and an avocado contains 44 per cent of your RDI of B3. “It is absolutely critical that carers, including early childhood educators and parents, learn the importance of nutrition so they can establish healthy eating patterns early on and inspire kids love of food through undertaking interactive food activities. "'Eating My Colourful Vegies and Fruit will equip carers with hand-on sensory food experiences to guide and encourage children’s food preferences and lay the foundations for a lifelong healthy relationship with food," she said. The Eating My Colourful Vegies and Fruit' programme guides professionals in early childhood centres and parents in the home. Green plant foods have a special focus in the programme, as they are particularly important for young growing bodies. For more information on Eating My Colourful Vegies and Fruit go to www.avocado.org.au.

Unique healing BY ALISON MARTIN HEALTH therapist, Susanne Smeeton, has brought a unique treatment combination of Bowen Therapy and Emmett Technique to the Geelong region, while also encouraging self-help through innovative seminars. She has opened a clinic specialising in the two highly-regarded treatments in multi-cultural Pakington Street, in Geelong West, and is already helping clients from across the Bellarine and Surf Coast. Susanne has used the experience she gained in Austria as a health therapist using the two Australian healing methods to base the personalised treatments she offers at her new clinic. “I love to combine both of the techniques. Both are gentle muscle relaxation methods and very effective in relief of muscle aches and pains,� she said. However she is also assisting clients with selfhelp seminars which enables her to share her skills and knowledge. Susanne said she was using her European background, where people were always interested in self-help treatments and maintaining their own health, to introduce special seminars. She has developed a specialist foot seminar for people who have problems with their feet, people working in standing occupations and for anyone who wants to know more about how to take care of their feet. “Enjoy your feet and experience the positive affect on your entire body at the next foot seminar on Saturday, September 11, 9am to 1pm. A second new seminar programme for the region will be Susanne’s Emm-Tech seminar. It involves a small selection of the Emmett

Technique, based on founder, Ross Emmett’s ‘first aid kit in self help’ against sore muscles. “The self help seminars do not replace the need for competent professional assessment and treatment where necessary, but have been beneficial to clients of all ages, from elderly to infants, personal trainers and coaches, aged carers, general carers and home carers,� Susanne said. “The Emm-Tech Seminar can also benefit massage, Bowen and other therapists and could be eligible for continuing education points for those practitioners. Two-day Emm-Tech courses will be held on Wednesday, September 1 and 8 or Friday, October 15 and 22. Susanne offers her treatments and seminars in English and German. The clinic is open from Monday to Friday at the Chiropractor Clinic, 246 Pakington Street and appointments can be booked on 5222 1299.

‘Perilous’ road upgrade urged Pedal grant BY ELEANOR WOODS

PRESSURE is mounting on local and state government to address road safety in the Surf Coast and Bellarine region. Australian Greens member Mike Lawrence, of Anglesea, is backing the Bike Safe Committees’ push to add bike lanes to a 207km stretch of road. The proposed development would see bike lanes added to the road from Geelong to the Bellarine, through to Barwon Heads to Torquay and down to Apollo Bay. It is projected the upgrade to infrastructure would cost more than $5 million. But, Bike Safe campaigners say the road works are “well past their due date” and must be done to address the road dangers that both cyclists and drivers face. Cyclists met last week at a notorious black spot, the intersection of Horseshoe and Blackgate Roads, to draw attention to the issue. Ocean Grove cyclist Al O’donoghue, who is a member of the Bike Safe Committee, said he used the “perilous” stretch of road at least two to four times a week. “I have had several near misses. Some very close calls. “The Blackgate Road intersection is one of the most dangerous spots. On the south-west corners it’s blind for both cars and bikes. A lot of caution is required here but it’s a high speed 100km zone,” he said. “I think this upgrade to roading is extremely important for both cyclists and motorists as well. If it doesn’t get done we will all suffer the consequences and frustration,” O’donoghue said. “I can see it getting to the stage where it will be too dangerous for both cars and bikes.” The push comes after the recent death of Mark Jimmink who died at Horseshoe Bend Road earlier this month.

Last year another experienced cyclist was killed in Breamlea. Australian Greens member Mike Lawrence said the upgrade to infrastructure was well over due. “There have been significant developments in the area. A lot more people are using these roads nowadays and its time they were brought up to standard,” he said.

“We are trying to draw attention to the fact that this is crucial to area. “We are trying to get support from the Surf Coast Shire, as well as federal and state funding. It’s a huge job but if this goes ahead we will have a world famous recreational bike road and that will roll on to tourism, green jobs, bike touring and accommodation,” Lawrence said.

Cyclists, Bike Safe Committee members and local Australian Greens member, Mike Lawrence, centre, met at the Blackgate and Horseshoe Road intersection to draw attention to the need for the introduction of bike lanes on our “perilous roads”.

BIKE Safe community initiative has received at $25,000 boost promotion of bicycle safety in the region by educating motorists and cyclists of rights and responsibilities. Geelong Community Foundation board member and Surf Coast resident, Barry Fagg, said he was pleased the foundation was able to take a leading role in this campaign. “We have various community programmes we support, including aged, youth, family and health support. “Another one is community wellbeing where we assist local organisations in promoting public safety, social inclusion and community support. The Bike Safe ‘Share the Road’ awareness program is much needed in our region and actually helps deliver many of our community program’s aims.” he said. The “Bike Safe” group was formed in response to recent increases in poor behavior towards cyclists, accidents and fatalities involving cyclists and motorists around the Bellarine and Surf Coast. Last year there were six cycling fatalities in Victoria, with two of those occurred in the region. Fagg said Bike Safe was helping promote better relations and behaviour between motorists and cyclists, encouraging respect and courtesy. “Through Bike Safe, local road cyclists have taken an active role in identifying the problems associated with both motorists and cyclists and have put forward positive ideas to make the roads safer for everyone in the region. “Urgently needed infrastructure maintenance and physical upgrades are also needed so cyclists can share the road with motorists safely,” he said.

HAYDEN’S HINTS Spring selling season fast approaching IF YOU’RE thinking about selling this spring, now is the time to talk to agents. We’re two weeks away from the start of the best selling season of the year and there’s a lot for you to get done before the first day of your campaign. Spring is a win-win for vendors and buyers. There’s a positive vibe in the market which is great for vendors and there’s more property available for sale which is great news for buyers. Given the federal election is now behind us, I’d say buyers will feel an extra boost of confidence now the issue of who’ll be running the country is behind us. Spring is an exceptionally good time to sell for buyers in coastline suburbs. On a warm, sunny Saturday morning, a property with ocean views has never looked better. Buyers know that if they buy their dream beachside home in September or October, they’ll be moved in and settled come the hotter summer months when they can really enjoy your property with their families and friends. If you have a home like this, make sure you highlight its best features by opening all the blinds and windows to let that warm air and brilliant light through on inspection days. If you’re going to paint before selling, use light colours such as white and beiges to accentuate that fresh summer feel. Get out your summer furniture too - put the sun lounges by the pool and your outdoor dining setting on the deck. A good agent will advise you on how to improve your property’s market appeal. It’s amazing what a coat of paint and a simple new garden can do to the look of your home from the street. I’ve seen very average properties acquire major charm through relatively minor cosmetic upgrades but these improvements take time to organise, and that’s why I encourage you to start the process now and talk to some agents. For more information on selling this spring, please contact Patrick Hayden on 0437 882 088 or by email at patrickh@hayden.com.au

Lonsdale’s starting point AUSTRALIA’s largest residential developer is preparing to start work on Point Lonsdale’s new residential and waterways project, after securing recent approval from the Victorian State Government. The Stockland development at Point Lonsdale will be known as The Point and include just under 600 home sites and up to 170 retirement living units. Stockland Victoria General Manager Victoria, Andrew Whitson said the community would have access to 31 hectares of parkland incorporating playgrounds, picnic areas and cycling and walking pathways, along with a 56 hectare nature reserve featuring wetlands and conservation areas. He said a multipurpose community centre at The Point would serve new residents and the broader community and a new aged care facility offering high level care would provide a much needed resource to communities on the Bellarine. “The Point’s conservation reserve on the western boundary will provide an enhanced habitat for local fauna and migratory species of water birds,” Whitson said. The first stage of The Point, located near the corner of Fellows Road and the Bellarine Highway, will include works to improve existing communal areas. There will be an upgrade of the parkland located at the entry of the Lonsdale Lakes residential enclave. A playground, picnic shelter and meeting space will be installed for use by local residents and community groups Works will also include improvements to the current drainage infrastructure near the Lonsdale Lakes entry to eliminate the existing flood risk and treat storm water before it enters the waterway.

Whitson said Stockland would work with the local community on various design aspects of the communal areas and facilities. He said progress had already been made on initial works including raising land in some areas of the project to ensure all homes meet minimum floor levels of 2.35 metres to reduce the risk of flood in the event of very heavy rainfall and extreme storm surge as well as possible sea level rise of 800 millimetres. The re-establishment of a wetland system connecting Swan Bay with Lake Victoria has started to assist the passage of overland flow of storm water from the broader catchment during very wet periods.

An Environmental Management Plan will also be implemented at the commencement of works to ensure we comply with all environmental standards outlined in the planning permit. “Construction of stage one at The Point is planned to commence later this year. “A registration of interest campaign will begin in coming weeks, with a pre-sales opportunity available to database registrants from October 2010. The project’s appointed local sales agent, Damian Cayzer, of Kerleys Coastal Real Estate said The Point provided the best of the Bellarine Peninsula with the benefits of a modern residential community you’d expect to find closer to Melbourne.

Point Lonsdale residential and waterways development, The Point, is expected to be underway by the end of the year and registration of interest for land will open soon.

WRECK OF THE ‘JOSEPH H SCAMMELL’ CONT.: Extracts from ‘History of Torquay’ by James A Baines 1938 The deckhouse now assumed a new role. The history of the Joseph H Scammell, and the seaside cottage “Scammell House� in Pride St, Torquay. The scroll-work of the wrecked ship’s quarterdeck is retained as ornamentation on the verandah, and many fittings bear the ship’s inscriptions. The narrow door gives ingress and egress to the old saloon, the living room on the lower floor of this double decker cottage. Portholes provide light in the north & south walls. All available fittings and timbers were secured from the wreckage to fit out the cottage. Some relics were stolen, but the atmosphere of the ‘ Joseph H. Scammell ervades the building.

MARKET UPDATE

THE COMING MONTHS

PROPERTY REPORTS

We can again report excellent sales volumes & results from your dedicated sales team. A record land sale in Jan Juc & top results in home sales have been achieved over the cooler months. There has also been several exceptional sales in the rural area in and around Bellbrae / Bells Beach. The market remains buoyant across all sectors & we are seeing time on the market decreasing whilst prices across the board continue to escalate.

Stock levels have remained constant for the last few months after a dramatic drop in availabilities as we moved out of the effects of the GFC late 2009. Despite the cooler weather enquiry is strong though naturally numbers around town are down. As buyer confidence continues to improve we see further decreases in stock levels which can only impact positively on prices.

If you are considering selling we would be pleased to view your property at a time convenient to yourselves and provide a current market appraisal and report. Our report will include recent sales, availabilities, market conditions and options for marketing and selling programs.

YOUR GUIDE TO BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION ON THE SURF COAST & BELLARINE

New meet the builder programme AT CAVALIER Homes West Coast they do things a little differently. On the last Sunday of each month you can visit Torquay’s Quay Estate to chat directly with well know local builder, Rob Clarke. Clarke, owner and hands on builder of Cavalier Homes West Coast, can answer the loads of questions people have when looking to find a quality builder. When comparing builders, home plans and quotes it can be difficult to make sense of what is actually offered and included. Clarke’s 22 years experience means he knows how to cut through the jargon and explain things in terms people can relate to. “Over the years I’ve advised customers on everything from the fine details that make a great house to helping them adjust a design so they maximise the use of space on their block,” Clarke said. He finds many people are keen to know the best ways to balance their wish list without blowing their budget. Cavalier Homes West Coast sees it as their job to provide high levels of quality

surfcoasttimes.com.au

and professionalism while working hard to keep within individual budgets. “We’re focused on ensuring the highest standard of finish at competitive prices. There’s a combination of things we do to achieve this. I’ll give a few insights into what to look for, so you get what you want in your finished home,” Clarke said. Apart from the facts and figures it is also important to find out about some of the more intangible things. “Before you sign up with a builder you need to understand how you will be kept informed of the progress of your new home. Our clients place their trust in Cavalier Homes West Coast, we take that seriously and work hard to keep them informed through regular weekly emails and scheduled site meetings,” Clarke said. If you’re planning a new home or just need some advice about the possibilities visit Rob Clarke at the Cavalier Homes West Coast display home, at 27 Longshore Street, The Quay Estate, Torquay. Clarke will be on hand the last Sunday of the month from 1pm until 3pm.

Designs for sloping sites HAMLAN Homes has forged a reputation as a specialist when it comes to designs for sloping sites. With minimised site costs and maximised views, Hamlan Homes have several multi-storey designs that embrace sloping and elevated blocks, while offering a modern and stylish floor plan. The Arlington 192 LS is now on display at the Arlington Rise Estate in Portarlington and is a sensational exhibition of the breathtaking views Hamlan’s multi-storey range is capable of achieving. Inside, the wide and inviting entrance is enhanced by nine inch ceilings, and internal access from the double garage. The intelligent design splits the home with convenient short flights of stairs connecting the three levels, and situated on the mid-floor is spacious master featuring full ensuite and walk-through robe. The ground floor features a further two bedrooms, both with built-in robes, central bathroom and laundry, as well as a rumpus room – a great space for the kids or the perfect retreat. This leads out to a gorgeous undercover entertaining

area, provided by the deck above. The first floor comprises a light, bright open-plan living and dining area, leading out through a wall of windows to the timber deck. The display provides panoramic views of Portarlington but the Arlington 192 LS will maximise your view regardless of where you choose to build. The gourmet kitchen features stone benchtops, Bosch appliances including a 900mm free-standing oven, gloss vinyl-wrap cabinetry and mixer tapware. The display is built from brick, James Hardie matrix cladding with Colorbond steel roof and also features Hamlan Homes’ Platinum Package design specification upgrade which allows you to add the luxury you deserve to your dream home for a fraction of the real cost. To view the Arlington 192 LS, visit 6 The Rise, Portarlington in the Arlington Rise Estate. The display is open Saturday and Sunday from 1-5pm, or call today to make a private inspection. For more information on the display or other designs in the multi-storey range, contact Hamlan Homes on 5222 5555 or 1300 HAMLAN.

Building & Construction

Tuesday 24 August 2010

Mixing and matching external materials Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that you have to use the same mix of building materials or finishes on every exterior walls. Choosing a combination of textures and products is a relatively simple way to provide visual contrast and all dimension and interest to clean lined designs. Rendered finishes combined with weatherboards provide a great contrast and throw interesting shadow lines. Choosing products that are hardy and relatively maintenance free should be high on the selection list. Looking at products with low embodied energy helps with your thermal and environmental component. A visually inviting house immediately draws attention and ignites our senses.

Pretty yum cha-rdy

SHAW & SMITH wines hail from the Adelaide Hills region in South Australia. They’re a great example of ‘how to go about it’ when it comes to producing a quality benchmark product, marketing the brand, and building a loyal following of customers. Cousins Martin Shaw and Michael Hill Smith established the label in 1989, with a simple philosophy: make contemporary, high quality wines that are outstanding examples of their type; made from grapes grown in the Adelaide Hills. With that in mind, they set about specialising in grape varieties suited to the cooler climate of the Adelaide Hills, such as sauvignon blanc and chardonnay, plus shiraz (and in later years pinot noir) from warmer sites. Having just tried all the new releases at their annual ‘Shaw & Smith Sauvignon Blanc and Yum Cha’ trade day it is needless to say I came away with a renewed appreciation for their outstanding range of Adelaide Hills wines. With the exception of the sauvignon blanc, the other two wines I’ve featured below are very thin on the ground so keep your eyes peeled if you want to get hold of a bottle or two. Space doesn’t allow for a review of the 2008 Shiraz, but I can tell you, it’s another belter.

The crowd goes wild as the music continues into the night.

Shaw & Smith Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2010 ($26)

Again, a near perfect vintage harvest with the 2010, being regarded as quite probably the best release to date – ‘isn’t every vintage?’ I hear you ask. The quality is good -really good - but at this stage it’s a bit shy and still early days. But, you can already see the tight acid structure that will form the backbone of this wine once it starts to open up and flourish. It is definitely one to watch, particularly once the crisp, pristine flavours start to add dimension, color and complexity to an already finely tuned wine.

Festival goers bask in the sun to the smooth tunes.

ons Congratulahotite l th e be ac h

Shaw & Smith Adelaide Hills “M3” Chardonnay 2008 ($45)

I’ve said it before - good Australian Chardonnays are not the high alcohol, buttery wines of warmer regions, but rather the more restrained and elegant styles from cooler climates. The Shaw and Smith ‘M3’ Vineyard Chardonnay is a serious attempt to produce a finer style of chardonnay that has the capacity to age in bottle. The 2007 Shaw & Smith‘M3’ Chardonnay shows slightly austere, stone fruits, nougat and lees character and complexity with excellent palate weight, richness and creamy mouth-feel. Get on it.

I hadn’t seen this wine before and was really impressed as most other Adelaide Hills Pinot Noirs I’d tasted had been disappointing to say the least. But this, whoa, it’s a deliciously smooth, vibrant pinot displaying distinctive violets, dark cherry and spice notes on the nose with concentrated rich plums and varietal earthiness and forest floor complexities fleshing out the fulsome, lengthy finish.

Surf crafts in bloom

Tuesday 24 August 2010

BY ELEANOR WOODS THE SURF COAST art and craft scene continues to flourish. Creative folk from around our region make up 30 per cent of the total number of artists in the Spring Artists Market, in Geelong. One of the organisers for the event, Torquay’s Lucy Lee, said she had been flooded with interest from Surf Coast art and craft producers for entry in the up and coming market. “There are so many creative people on the coast. People seem to be flocking here for inspiration,� she said. Lee, who hand-binds journals and creates sculptural works from paper, created the festival with her jeweler sister, Emma Bartle, to help bring into fruition the resurgence of craft. The market runs quarterly at the beginning of each season and has been well received since its inception in early 2009. This spring offering features “an eclectic mix of 35 designers, artists and gourmets�. “The market gives visitors an exclusive shopping experience, with the opportunity

to purchase high quality unique pieces from handpicked local makers. “It also provides the perfect environment for established artists to display new designs, and gives emerging artists much needed exposure to a supportive, encouraging audience,� Lee said. The Spring Artists’ Market will be held from noon until 9pm on Friday September 10, at the All Saints Hall, in Noble Street, Newtown. This season it features more than a dozen new stall holders as well as wonderful spring designs from market-favourite contributors. The exciting array of wares will include paintings, drawings, prints, photography, jewellery, journals, children’s and adults clothing, toys, vintage fabrics, handcrafts, sculpture, and home wares. Along with these wonderful designers and artists, there will also be coffee, sweet and savory treats, wine, live music and a beautiful hamper to be won. “Admission is free so come along, celebrate the new season and enjoy the colourful atmosphere of the Spring Artists’ Market, bursting with high quality, unique handmade designs,� Lee said.

Lights, action ... art Tuesday 24 August 2010

BY ELEANOR WOODS NIFTY needle workers and snazzy sewers have been busy preparing works for an up-and-coming wearable art event in Aireys Inlet. Wear Artrageous will take to the stage next month, promising folks a fashion and art show never to forget. Surf Coast Shire arts development officer Julie Dyer said the wearable art event would be packed to rafters with colour, humor, drama and creativity. “It will be a great day for everyone, on and off stage,” she said. Attendees are encouraged to bring a basket of food and drinks to share with their table while they feast their eyes on the colourful entertainment. Artist’s creations will be paraded or performed on stage, accompanied by their own choice in music and lighting, making for a varied and insightful show. “This is an opportunity for local Artists to create for the human form. “Whether it is body paint or tailored creations, new or recycled materials - not just fabrics and textiles, the more “artrageous” the better,” Dyer said. Torquay’s Elrae Adams is creating an edible

masterpiece for entry in the event. Her work, Good enough to eat, is made from handmade icing flowers, leaves and messages as well as dehydrated bread. “The event is fantastic. There are all these outrageous garments and all sorts of weird things. It’s a lot of fun,” Adams said. “I always like getting involved with creative projects. I have been doing all sorts of arts and crafts for as long as I can remember,” Adams said. Both men and women will be modeling the works, which are limited only by the artists’ imagination. Recycled pink plastic picnic sets, laundry powder scoops, CDs and A4 sheets of paper have all been used to create works in Wear Artrageous. And, there is good news for anyone else who is keen to get on board Wear Artrageous. “People can still enter last minute so get creative and give me a call,” Surf Coast Arts’ Julie Dyer said. The event is on Saturday, September 11, from 7.30pm at Aireys Inlet Hall. General admission is $15 and $5 for members of Surf Coast Arts. Anyone who wants to enter can phone Julie Dyer on 0419 152 520 and must also be available for a Torquay’s Elrae Adams is creating an edible piece of wearable art for the upcoming Wear Artrageous event at dress rehearsal earlier in the day.

Perfect Fit escape to OZ Tuesday 24 August 2010

BY ALISON MARTIN

IT’S GOING to be a big month for the Bellarine boys from Perfect Fit, as they prepare to launch a new EP in time for their local performance on the Escape To OZ – FReeZACentral Tour. The four-piece pop punk band will join House Vs Hurricane, Confession, Heroes For Hire and The Deep End on the Geelong West Town Hall stage, for an all-ages gig on Saturday, August 28. Perfect Fit gained their spot on the Escape To OZ tour, through the 2010 FReeZACentral Mentoring Programme presented by The Push, FReeZACentral and Blunt Magazine. The Perfect Fit line-up includes Ocean Grove’s Brandon Poulter, 22, on vocals; Barwon Heads’ Matt Dietrich, 22, on bass, Ocean Grove guitarist Lincoln Stolz, 22, and drummer Chris Kelly, 22, who has recently made the move from Torquay to Melbourne. Brandon, Lincoln and Matt started jamming in high school and were then joined by Chris, forming Perfect Fit. They started playing locally, entering the Freeza Push-start Battle of Bands competition four years ago and made it to the regional finals. Playing Melbourne gigs and preparing to tour interstate later this year, Perfect Fit is now recognised for fusing hard punk rock and pop with a uniquely Australian twist. Brandon said they had jumped at the chance to play the

FReeZACentral Tour because it was a great opportunity to play with some top bands and provide a chance to promote their new EP. He said they released their own four-track EP ‘Glory Days’ in 2009 but they were looking forward to the release of the new EP ‘Lying to Make Friends’ within the next few weeks. Perfect Fit’s latest six-track EP has been produced by Lindsay Gravina, well-known for his work with Australia’s Eskimo Joe, The Living End and Goodnight Nurse. ‘Lying to Make Friends’ showcases the band’s talented songwriting and is just a sample of what’s to come from Perfect Fit. Brandon explained he and Lincoln, who write a majority of their songs, were just about ready to sit down and start on an album. “We’re just going to keep working hard; play with good bands and organise some tours,” Brandon said. Perfect Fit have a dynamic and energetic stage presence and encourage audience participation whenever possible and will be sure to create a fantastic vibe with other headline acts at the Geelong West Town Hall. Tickets are selling fast, so book now for the 7pm show on August 28 through www.oztix.com.au or will be available at the door if not sold out. For more information on the all ages, drug, alcohol, smoke-free event contact The Push on 9380 1277. FReeZACentral is a Victorian Government initiative, managed by The Push and Mushroom Marketing, to help young Victorians kick start their music careers.

Perfect Fit’s Chris, Matt, Brandon and Lincoln are taking their upbeat energy on tour after winning a place on the Escape to OZ.

24/7 GARDEN MAINTENACE

Mulch Away SMALL business 24/7 Grass, Garden and General Maintenance is sure to meet your gardening needs. Partners Dave and Debbie Brant are offering their customers in the Surf Coast a great breadth of garden know-how and practical help. Their business specialty is mulching, which is a true environmentally sustainable practice as they gather garden waste, mulch it on the spot, and return it to the garden which can then provide great water preservation by keeping the soil damp. They have brought their expertise to the Surf Coast, currently based in Clifton Springs, after spending 26 years on the Gold Coast running

wholesale and retail nurseries as well as an indoor plant hire business. Dave has been a registered builder for over 20 years and so applies his building knowledge to any garden design a customer may dream up, and can also make suggestions and give great advice. Dave and Debbie have also lived in Bali where they grew plants for four years. With their array of expertise, they will provide all kinds of gardening solutions to any gardening needs, including a ride-on mower for extensive acreage mowing. For more information call Dave Debbie and Dave Brant. on 0416 016 856 and Debbie on 0416 752 994.

AUG 24 - AUG 30 2010

The Full Moon prompts you to behave in strange, erratic ways that are a mystery even to you. Issues from the past could also arise - maybe contact with an old friend or the resurfacing of an unresolved issue. The Moon’s in Aries on the weekend, so you’ll feel like a super Ram/ Ramzilla. Focus on passionate projects that make your heart sing.

Many Crabs are in the mood to clean, redecorate or renovate at home so grab a broom, paint brush or tool bag and get busy. The Full Moon gives you a welcome energy boost mid-week but you may feel as if you’re on an emotional rollercoaster on Friday. You’ll manage best if you can persuade others to work with you rather than against you.

Librans strive to create harmony, balance and order around them. Don’t even try this week! It’s a ratty, manic, unpredictable Full Moon week, so drop the perfectionist routine and take things as they come. With Venus and Mars both in your sign, it’s time to be romantic and super sexy, as you channel the Love God or Goddess within.

The Piscean Full Moon urges you to be more mentally flexible, as you take the rough with the smooth and search for the subtleties in every situation. With Saturn in your wellbeing zone, it’s time to get serious about your health and fitness. As birthday great Ingrid Bergman observed “Happiness is good health and a bad memory.”

Leos long for a luxurious lifestyle but avoid splashing cash around this week. Instead, separate your wants from your needs - and squirrel money away for when times are tight. Avoid the temptation to be a bossy-boots on Friday. Calm, considered communication will get you a lot further than tiresome temper tantrums and diva-like demands.

Have you been too busy to touch base with children, teenagers or friends? The Full Moon encourages you to reconnect in deep and meaningful ways - and don’t be surprised if they have some unexpected (and dramatic) news to divulge! Thursday is a fabulous day to impress others with your communication skills and general knowledge.

Expect the unexpected at work, as the Full Moon shakes up your career zone. Postpone making important decisions (if you can) as you’ll find it difficult to keep your mind on the job. Things are also unsettled at home, as Mercury reverses through your domestic zone until September 13. Don’t assume you know what a housemate is thinking.

Virgos are such sensible folk - but those around you will have a hefty dose of Full Moon Fever this week, so why not let your hair down and join the party? Don’t let fear of failure stop you from enjoying life to the max. Be inspired by birthday great Ingrid Bergman “I don’t regret a thing I’ve done. I only regret the things I didn’t do.”

Calling all stir-crazy Sagittarians! If you’re stuck indoors this week, you’ll drive everyone nuts with your impatient and impulsive ways (which are magnified by the Full Moon). Lots of fresh air and physical activity will help calm your restlessness. Single Archers – looking for love online sees you make a hot new connection..

Travel is highlighted but you need to be flexible, as plans are likely to change at the last minute. Don’t worry about mistakes you have made in the past. It’s time to concentrate on the here and now. Be inspired by birthday great Mother Teresa “Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.”

Your spending patterns are erratic at the best of times. This week (with the Full Moon stirring up your money zone) you’d be wise to avoid window shopping, and put your credit card out of reach! Instead, spend time nurturing your relationships, especially with friends and family from overseas. Singles – love and travel are lusciously linked.

With the Full Moon (and Uranus) in your sign this week, you may be affected by mood swings and dramas as pliant Pisceans become pensive and petulant. But you can also expect creative inspiration and spiritual insights, as your inner muse demands to be heard. It’s time to focus your energy and express your numerous talents in surprising ways.

ANGLESEA GOLF CLUB

WITH MARGOT SMITH

IF YOU play the front nine better than the back then now is your best time to play; there has to be some advantage for someone with the back nine closed. So competitions now are either 9 hole only or playing the front 9 twice. For the coming week the time sheets have been adjusted for 18 hole competitions and all the details are on the web site.

Royal Womens Hospital Event Barb Cook and Ann Stokes represented the club in the district final for this annual event. Barb managed to get out of her sick bed to play and was on the card for the first three holes. Ann then managed a chip in on the 4th and the girls won with 42 points in very wintery conditions. The next best team had just 36 points. They now go on to represent the district at the state final on September 17 at Kingston Heath along with the runners up.

Mens competition Those who teed off on Wednesday morning were able to complete their rounds relatively unscathed, but unfortunately torrential rain washed out those playing later in the day.

Torquay Golf Club 1 Great Ocean Road, Torquay Phone: 5261 2005 Pro Shop: 5261 2506 Email: info@torquaygolfclub.com.au Web: www.torquaygolfclub.com.au

Midweek results. Conditions were looking good to start on Wednesday but the day rapidly deteriorated. Of the 44 players that started only 16 put cards in and for the first time in my memory 31 points scored a ball down the line. Meanwhile the winners were Matt Carboon in A grade with 37 points, Tony Leeds in B grade with 32 points and Bruce Barnett in C grade with the best score for the day with 39 points. NTPs were Mervyn Worsfold and Tony Leeds. The weather cleared for Thursday for the ladies; again they played the front nine twice. Vida Brenner won div 1 with 39 points and Janice Calvert won div 2 with the same score. Best score for the day was from Lyn Thompson winning div 3 with 40 points. NTPs were Ann Stokes, Lyn Webber and Jan Stewart. Weekend events Janice Pekin managed 22 points on her nine to win

the ladies with Ros Holland runner-up with 20 points. In the men’s event Our Ray Shaw was the standout with 22 points winning B Grade, David Lewis won a Grade with 17 points and Nigel Forsyth won C Grade with 20 points. NTPs were Les Cooper, Brent McDonald and Judy Talbot. Sunday was the pick of the days and probably had the smallest field for the week. Winners were Lady Captain Rhelma Barnett and Hugh Pearce both scoring 2 up over nine holes. NTPs were Jackie Pearce, Glenn O’Shannessy and Director Peter Gannon. The footy tipping competition is drawing to a close and this year we’ll be having a presentation night during happy hour on Friday, September 10. Director Al Nanscawen is looking a shoe-in at the moment, but he might just have a lapse in concentration this week.

Allan Marsh was one of the few players to finish in the red. He won the day with 1 up while Scott Rixon was runner-up on square. Luke Rayner won NTP on the 7th while the ever “Mr Consistent� Dean Bernasconi won NTP on the 13th. On Saturday the wind blew and players were grateful that the day was changed from stroke to stableford.John Booker was one of the last to finish his round and won the day with 38 points. A fine green side bunker shot on the 8th was just one of the many highlights. Phil Coulter won A grade with 37 points on a countback from John McKoy. Russell Gugger won NTP on the 5th, Michael Yates on the 7th, Rod Brooker on 13 and Graham Harding on the 17th. The PING demonstration day was a great success with members taking advantage of the expertise that was available.

Women’s competition The wind blew and the rain fell but The Thursday girls battled on in trying and difficult conditions. Well, not so trying for some players! Carol McDonald blitzed the field to win the comp with 43 points which is a fantastic result. Judy Bullock was runner-up with 30 points. Sue Browne won NTP on the 7th. On Saturday it was survival of the fittest with Paulette Payne taking the honours, finishing with 30 points.

Winners on the day were Mandy Buckley and Glenda Deans while Alison and her partner Lyn Brady were runners up. NTPs went to Lyn Brady and Leslie Grebe, Lyn Hyett, Bernadette Birkitt, Mandy Buckley and Glenda Deans Saturday was a Par round and despite a few showers the field was full. In A grade the winner was Paul Byron with +2, on a countback from Ross Duff. Greg Mifsud was the B grade winner with +3 from Greg Pender with +1. In C Grade Geoff Grayling had +2 to finish on top of Tony Jones with +1, and it C grade a countback was needed Allan Wells the winner over Don Forsyth both with +3. NTPs went to Bruce Groom, Andrew Groom, Michael McKinnon and Greg Millar. Mike Brady picked up the jackpot. Ainsley McCallum was the best of the Saturday Girls with +2 Wanda Patterson was runner up with

+1. Marina Naughton and Annette Joyce took the NTPs. On Friday a large contingent of Torquay girls headed to Curlewis for the Annual SWDLGA country teams day with a couple of good results Maz Clifford paired up with Jenny Edmondson from Portarlington to finish runners up in div 1. Julie Rogers and Inge Oliver were runners up in div 2. I am delighted to say to of our girls were named in the SWDLGA Squad heading up to Sanctuary Lakes this coming weekend. Maz Clifford and Micha Evans will be representing Torquay and The SWDLGA as our district team challenges for the Alice Coltman Cup. Good Luck to all the team from the girls at Torquay. Golf week forms are coming in so get in early as some events fill up very quickly. And don’t forget to pencil in the dinner Dance on Friday, October 8.

WITH THE PRO SHOP

ANOTHER wild week along the coast, making conditions extremely tough for players, especially some of the Wednesday men who have been washed out for the third consecutive week. And while we battle the bitter cold and the westerly winds whipping up along our course, there are others from this club who are basking in the sun, playing golf amongst the palm trees. Club pro, Darrell Brown, and a group of members have landed in Hawaii for a golfing adventure. (Some people get all the good jobs!) Lots of golf, lessons, and expert advice will be on hand for the players and we look forward to hearing all about this wonderful trip on their return.

Have a great week on the course and happy hitting!

WITH C H R I S B A R R

WITH the course wetter than it has been a long time more rain was not on order this week. Tuesday was spectacular for the ladies and their guests but by Wednesday the storm clouds rolled in and yet again and the skies opened. It didn’t take long for the sodden course to be under water and for the third consecutive week play was cancelled. The boys were not happy and must surely be feeling the frustration. President Pamela welcomed members and their guests from far and wide for a Pinehurst round on Tuesday. Special Guest Alison McCaig from RACV was able to give us a brief update on progress and enjoyed her time on the course she will be back to join us for some games during Golf week. SWDLGA junior rep Glenda Deans was also able to tell us all about the golf for junior girls in the district.

Tuesday 24 August 2010

A glimpse at world JAN JUC‘s Adam Robertson, one of Victoria’s most respected and accomplished surfers, has joined Billabong’s roster of sponsored athletes. Robertson has his focus firmly fixed on competing in this year’s remaining six-star men’s events to give him a run at qualifying for surfing’s elite world tour in 2011. The extremely competitive six-star events in Europe, Brazil and the USA, will give 28-year-old Robertson a chance to measure himself against the world’s best emerging surfers. “The six-star events are definitely a focus as they provide the best opportunity to accumulate ratings points and earn a place on the 2011 world tour,” Robertson said. “I think I have the potential to do well and I still have the competitive drive so I’m giving myself

every chance to go to that next level. “But outside of competition I’ll be trying to fit in trips to some good wave destinations, get some barrels, keep working on a section for a new film and basically just enjoy my surfing.” Billabong surf team manager Sasha Stocker said Robertson, runner-up to Billabong team rider Joel Parkinson at the 2009 Rip Curl Pro at Bells Beach, was a great addition to the Billabong team. “Robbo continues to fly the flag for Victorian surfing and we feel he is a fantastic representative for the Billabong brand,” said Stocker. “While he is a multiple winner of the trials for the Bells event and he has had some other great contest results, including representation for Australia at a junior level, we equally see him as a great ambassador out of the water.”

FROM THE

mat WITH TORQUAY BOWLS CLUB

LET’S hope it is a harbinger of better days ahead. The bowls club is stirring back into life after a winter best forgotten While greenkeeper Bill, like everyone else, has been delighted by the abundant rains, he could have done without the cold. He estimates that the season is weeks behind recent years as the soil has been so cold that growth has been non-existent. What we really need now is a nice spell of sunshine to warm up the ground, not to mention the winterweary bodies. Having said all that, the club is confident of getting off to a great start to the season, with the official opening ceremony just two weeks away on September 3. The first bowls will be put down the next day. The men’s and women’s pennant seasons kick off a few weeks later, and the club is, as always, on the lookout for those hidden talents out there who could become our next generation of champions. On the social side, the Twilighters will be at it again this year from early October.

There are still spaces for several teams in the Wednesday evening competition. Going by last year’s series, which saw up to 100 bowlers on the greens for some barefoot fun on some weeks, this is fast growing into one of the best social/ sporting fixtures in town. Anyone interested in joining up as a bowler, either with the aim of playing pennant competition or in the social bowls, should contact the club or just drop down on a Friday evening and say ‘hello’. You will be made very welcome. In the clubhouse, the Friday evening meals have carried on over winter to sustain the hardy souls who battled through the elements. So good has the attendance been that anyone wanting to enjoy the best-value two-course meal in town would be well advised to book a table from now on. Among the events coming up at the club is another of the highly popular jazz evenings, on September 19. The session will run from 5pm to 8pm and the $10 admission also includes nibblies; and the best-value beer and wines in town will be flowing!

Athletics coaching clinic BELLARINE Athletics will host a coaching clinic next month to launch the start of the Athletics Track and Field season. The clinic on Sunday, September 19 at Landy Field, 1pm to 3pm, is free and anyone 12-years-old and over is welcome to come along. Bellarine Athletics, Elizabeth Bauer, said Bellarine Athletics was proud of its many achievers, including Nathan Deakes, who held the world record for the 50 kilometre race walk. “Deakes is still a loyal member of our club and of Sam McIntosh who holds the Australian/Oceanic T52 wheelchair records for the 100m, 200m and 400m,” Bauer said. “We are also proud of our up and coming juniors such as Pole Vaulter Keith Wrzuszczak and High Jumper Thomas Henry. “However, do not make the mistake of thinking that our club and athletics in Geelong are only interested in the elite athletes.

“We are just as proud to have many members who use athletics as the basis to improve their performances in other sports as well as the members who are just there for some fun & fitness and social interaction. “We have members of all abilities ranging from Under 14 to 60-plus,” she said. Bellarine is one of five clubs competing under the umbrella of Geelong Athletics at Landy Field on Saturday afternoons from October to March. Events conducted are sprints, middle distance, long distance, race walking, hurdles, steeple, shot put, discus, javelin, hammer, high jump, triple jump, long jump, pole vault and relays.

There was a fair bit of water on the field when U14 Girls Yellow vs. Blue match played out at a very windswept Connewarre on the weekend.

Legends show form U12 Girls: Surfcoast (5) vs. Geelong Rangers (2)

The Legends were at the home of the formidable Rangers to see if we could continue our successful season to date. The girls started brilliantly into the breeze with Annie scoring in the first minute or so. The girls dominated the second half and the goal kicking practice from training paid off with Annie getting her third. Another good game by the Legends which show cased how far the skill level and confidence of all players have come since the start of the year.

U14 Girls: Surfcoast Yellow (0) vs. Surfcoast Blue (1)

The Federal Election wasn’t the only close contest happening on Saturday. What spectators saw on the weekend was a great, exciting game between two highly competitive teams, the Blues and the Yellows. As stated last week both teams are very evenly matched with Yellow taking the points in the last match 2-1. By the time the whistle blew, the Blues had a well earned 1-0 win under their belts. Both teams should be proud of their efforts.

trawl catches in western and central Bass Strait waters, some of which coincided with peak snapper spawning season and migrations to Port Phillip Bay. DPI has been working with the AFMA and the South East Trawl Fisherman’s Association remove incentives for commercial fishers to target snapper. Accordingly, DPI has asked AFMA for immediate action to apply a 50 kg trip limit for snapper that DPI will continue to work with all relevant parties to explore alternative ways to aid the productive use of our fisheries resources in the longer term. This will include exploring potential ways to develop a market-based scheme to minimise snapper catches. Fisheries Victoria said it is committed to ensuring that Victorian recreational and commercial fishers continue to enjoy great snapper fisheries

SNAPPER season is just around the corner and action is being taken to protect Victorian snapper harvest. The Department of Primary Industries is seeking limits on the amount of Victorian snapper that licensed commercial trawl fishers are allowed to harvest. Executive director of Fisheries Victoria, Anthony Hurst, said there was currently no enforceable limit on the quantity of snapper that commercial trawl fishers could take on each trip. “DPI has asked the Australian Fisheries Management Authority (AFMA) to restrict those operators to a maximum of 50 kg of snapper byproduct on each trip,” he said. “Data shows an increase in Commonwealth catches of snapper from waters off the Victorian coast between 2003 and 2009.” Mr Hurst said the increase was attributable to

Get a taste of this – new fishing regulations as we head into snapper season.

River King FISHERMAN Ian King enjoyed a spot of luck at the Anglesea River recently. The recreational fish finder didn’t do too badly for himself either. King caught three healthy looking bream and raved about the infamous ‘one that got away’. The proud fisherman displayed his catch with glee, boasting it would be a nice meal for him and his wife. “It’s a good result. I can’t complain. I had a really big one on the line earlier in the day. But it got off,” he said, throwing another line out in the hope that it might take another chance on his bait. “It’s a lovely spot this one. And it’s so still today. Great conditions for fishing.”
