A
CHAPLAINCY BIKE RIDE • 17 May 2009
fter a few wet weekends, a beautiful, sunny day greeted riders, all ready for another bike adventure. Pushing their bikes a short distance to the first paddock crossing, everyone took off with much excitement to cross the Mary River to Walli Mountain Road, where more riders joined the group. Travelling along Coolabine Road, everyone took in the beautiful Kenilworth scenery, and kept up a steady pace until reaching Coolabine Goat Cheese Farm for morning tea. Welcome drinks and homemade goodies were soon demolished, replenishing energy for the first big climb up Hunsley Road. This stretch tested all the riders, but the speedy glide down the other side made it all worthwhile. A few more climbs and paddock crossings, and everyone arrived safely at our destination at Ivan Friedland’s farm for a BBQ lunch. Special thanks to Wayne and Tracey Ferriday, the McLaren family and Ivan Friedland, for kindly allowing us to access their properties, so that a safe bike ride was ensured for all participants. Thanks also to Boyd Eime and the Chaplaincy Committee for organising another thoroughly enjoyable ride for the Kenilworth and Conondale communities! See related photo on colour page 23

he Belli Hall was host to a very successful Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea on Thursday 28 May last. Everyone enjoyed a wonderful morning tea, entertainment and just catching up with friends. The committee thanks all those people who helped make it such a successful morning. Our next old time dance in the Hall is on 4 July. Our last dance on the 23 May saw 106 people dance the night away. It is so good to see new faces and young people coming and enjoying the night. Two issues ago a mistake was made in relation to the age of the Hall. It was Suppliers of Bulk Petroleum Fuels & Oils actually built in 1932 Servicing the Sunshine Coast Hinterland not 1937 as stated. & Mary Valley for over 25 years Sorry about the error. Hall meetings are held on the second Tuesday following a dance at 7.30pm. Neville & Margaret Long All members of the Ph 5447 0175 or Belli community are welcome. Email:longsfuel@skymesh.net.au
