THOUSANDS of people walked in the footsteps of the Anzacs on Saturday morning, and it was an emotional journey.

Some 100 years on from the landing at Gallipoli, people of all ages from communities along the Warburton Highway trod the soil which all those years ago, young men from those very communities would have walked.

They would have been members of the local football club making their way to practice at Millgrove where, in a tiny town, a crowd of over 2000 people gathered for the dawn service.

They may have worked on the orchards that still spread out to the highway from Wandin Yallock, or sat writing on slate chalkboards at the school just over the road from where wreaths were laid in their memory at the cenotaph.

They might have been boys, hurrying along with their families walking down the main street to the corner store, or to catch a train ‘down the line’ at Yarra Junction where kids with cheeky grins walked hand in hand with their parents during the march - as they might have done.

They would have looked across to the mist rising on the mountains above Warburton on many chilly mornings and felt at home. Perhaps they were thinking of joining the new fire brigade!

They could never have imagined that 100 years down the track, songs would be written in their honour and that schoolchildren would be singing “Come On Home Boys” as they looked across to the same misty mountains.

At each service and march there were common threads.

Record attendances were expected, but overwhelmingly exceeded what most of the organising bodies had envisaged, reflecting the importance of marking 100 years passed.

VicForests makes the move

By KATH GANNAWAY VICFORESTS move from Healesville to Woori Yallock will be good for the town according to township and local government representatives.

VicForests announced the move which involves 30 employees from Healesville and potentially ‘a couple’ from the Melbourne head office, earlier this month with the move expected to happen in July or August.

The new office will share the Symes Road complex with Parks Victoria, the CFA Incident Control Centre and Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP).

Cr Jim Child said having a corporate tenant move in to the complex was a shot in the arm for the town which would have a flow-on effect to small business.

“

groups say, and it is their right to protest, but I think they were poorly treated.�

WYTAG president Rick Shaw has also welcomed the influx of workers into the township. “It’s bringing all those (government) services together in one location and I think that’s got to be a good thing,� he said. “With seven new shops being built on the highway, it is certainly going to make those shops more viable.�

Mr Shaw said one of Woori Yallock strong points is that is that it is at a crossroads of the Yarra Valley which is easily accessible from towns from Healesville to Warburton and Wandin. “Anything like this has to improve the viability of the town – and that’s a good thing,� he said.

It’s bringing all those (government) services together in one location and I think that’s got to be a good thing‌

“When you get 30 extra people drop in, the town has to benefit,� he said. “It’s also beneficial for a number of people who live in O’Shannassy Ward who already work for VicForests in that it is not so far to travel. “I think the main thing for Woori Yallock is that we had a very large commercial building down there which was vacant and we now have a tenant in it.�

He said with seven new shops being built and the pro-active role that groups

Rick Shaw such as WYTAG (Woori Yallock Township Action Group) and the Woori Community House were taking, the town had a new energy about it.

In response to the other side of the coin – the loss of business for Healesville township, Cr Child said he believed VicForest staff were treated poorly in Healesville, and said at times female staff members were concerned for their safety. “Irrespective of what protester

Concern over caravan park ‘secret’ sale plan

By KATH GANNAWAY

Peta Godenzi, pictured with resident Helen O’Brien believes the response to the petition shows that people Picture: KATH GANNAWAY didn’t know about the sale of the caravan park. 138252 by the council’s process of hearing the matter behind closed doors.

Mr Power said the council’s ‘confidential item’ approach amounted to ‘weasel words’ and added that he wasn’t alone in his concern that residents are being kept in the dark. “I think the general feeling is that there is something underhand happening here and people are upset about it,� he said.

The council’s environment and engineering director Mark Vermalis had defended the way council handled the matter however, saying it was considered ‘in-camera’ in accordance with the Local Government Act which covered contractual matters and confidential financial and commercial information of tenderers.

He said while UYCE’s submission was highly considered, the successful

tenderer’s submission provided the best nett benefit for the community when assessed against the selection criteria.

He said that criteria included nett financial benefit for the council, a business plan, development proposals, relevant experience and the tenderer’s financial capacity.

He said the council had not established how the sale proceeds would be spent but said it would be in line with council policies.

On the question of submissions, which close on 7 May, Mr Vermalis said there are no restrictions on submissions and that all would be assessed on their merit and relevance to the matter.

Submitters are also entitled to request that they speak about their submission at a public council meeting

where the proposed sale will be considered.

Mr Power however says without knowledge of how councillors voted and what discussions informed their decision, and whether it was the benefit for Warburton that was paramount, or the benefit for the whole shire. “Basically, you can’t expect councillors from Upwey or Mooroolbark to give a hoot about what happens to the caravan park at Warburton,� he said.

UYCE chairman Peter Kimberley told the Mail they were unable to comment at this stage on whether they will be putting in a submission.

Ms Godenzi said information about the petition was on the Warburton Facebook page.

POLICE have confirmed the body of missing East Warburton man Paul Krstic has been found in dense bush at East Warburton on Thursday.

An intensive search had been conducted over the preceding two days leading to the discovery of Mr Krstic’s body in bushland near Big Peninsula Tunnel on 23 April.

Sergeant Kevin Largue, Officer In Charge of Yarra Junction Police, said they located the body at 8.50am with the assistance of the police helicopter and the Search and Rescue Squad.

Mr Krstic, 49, had left work in Bayswater North at around 1.30pm on Monday and a search was instigated on Tuesday with police and family members saying his disappearance was out of character and expressing concerns for his welfare.

A large SES volunteer contingent with members from Upper Yarra, Healesville and Brimbank were involved in the search, along with police from Warburton, Yarra Junction, and Healesville, the mounted police and the canine squad.

Friends waiting at the search point for news of Mr Krstic on Monday morning described him as a lovely, family man.

Local police conveyed the sad news to Mr Krstic’s family.

Sgt Largue said the coroner would investigate the circumstances around Mr Krstic’s death, but that he believed there were no suspicious circumstances.

Service tips IN THE lead-up to National Volunteer Week, Yarra Ranges Council and Eastern Volunteers are hosting their third volunteer conference.

With support from Mount Evelyn and Districts, and Mooroolbark, community banks, the conference is aimed at those involved in co-ordinating volunteers for a community group or organisation.

Sue Noble from Volunteering Victoria will present the keynote address. The sessions will include volunteer management, corporate volunteering, youth and volunteering, and legal issues.

A GROUNDSWELL of concern is building in Warburton about the proposed sale of the Warburton Caravan Park to outside interests.

A number of people signing a petition calling on Yarra Ranges Council to consult with the community over the sale said they were unaware of the proposal to sell the park.

Others said they were concerned that ownership would - for the first time since it was established by the Warburton Advancement League - be in private hands.

Yarra Ranges Council has called for submissions on its proposal to sell the caravan park and lease the river front to a group that owns parks in Inverloch, Wye River and Bright - two of which are Big4 franchises.

The meeting to decide the successful tender was heard ‘in camera’ last month on the basis of protecting the financial and commercial information provided by tenderers.

Peta Godenzi, president of business and tourism group, Warburton Valley CEDA (Community Economic Development Association), said they instigated the petition because they felt the community needed the opportunity to have a say.

Signing the petition on Saturday, resident Helen O’Brien said she didn’t know of the sale until people started to talk about it this week. “It’s about people being in on the process and giving the town the opportunity to say whether they would rather have it community run,� she said.

One of the issues is that the Warburton Community Bank (Upper Yarra Community Enterprise) had tendered, but was not successful.

In a recent letter to the Mail, another Warburton resident, Bill Power, said too many questions are unanswered

Hello, possums – feds join fight

By JESSE GRAHAM THE FIGHT to save the Leadbeater’s Possum is heading towards a tipping point according to the Federal Government, which last week listed the animal as being on the brink of extinction.

But timber industry representatives have said protection measures are doing enough for the animal, and warned of losses if the government closed down local logging.

On Wednesday 22 April, Federal Environment Minister Greg Hunt announced that the status of the possum had been upgraded to critically endangered, following the release of a Threatened Species Scientific Committee report.

The report lists a “high likelihood” that the Yellingbo population of the possum, down to 40 animals, would go extinct in the next 100 years, and a 92 per cent chance of ecosystem collapse in Mountain Ash Forest populations by 2067.

It ends with a damning recommendation for the timber industry, that the most effective way to prevent population decline “is to cease timber harvesting within mountain ash forests of the Central Highlands.”

Mr Hunt said the animal would now receive “the highest level of protection under national environment law”, and that urgent action was needed in the next 12 months to halt declining population numbers. He said he had written to his Victorian Government counterpart, Environment Minister Lisa Neville, about updating the animal’s draft recovery plan and taking actions to address the upgraded status.

Listing the major threats to the animal as feral cats, fire and habitat loss through timber harvesting, Mr Hunt said the government would take action to eradicate feral cats around the country, as they are also a threat to many other endangered animals.

When asked about the possibility of creating a new national park, which has been long pushedfor by Australian National University Professor David Lindenmayer and environmental groups, Mr Hunt said the Federal Government was not against the proposal.

“It may well be something that the state chooses to do,” he said.

“We’re absolutely not opposed to it, and ... it may put more pressure on the state to do something like that.”

The Mail contacted Ms Neville’s office with questions about the State Government’s stance on the national park proposal - referred to as the Great Forest National Park (GFNP) by supporters - and what measures would be looked at to protect the possum.

A spokeswoman for Ms Neville said the gov-

ernment was implementing the Leadbeater’s Possum Advisory Group (LPAG) recommendations endorsed by the previous government, and would “support the establishment of an Industry Taskforce” to bring a “best practice approach”.

“It would involve government, industry and science working together to reach common ground on the issues facing the industry, such as job protection, economic activity and protection

of our unique native flora, fauna and threatened species,” the spokeswoman said in a written statement.

But the LPAG recommendations, which came with an $11 commitment from the government, were dismissed by Prof Lindenmayer last year as not doing enough for the animal.

VicForests’ general manager of stakeholders and planning, Nathan Trushell, said the timber industry and the possum could co-exist, and that the industry had improved practices to protect the animal.

“We share everyone’s concern over the future of this important species and have listened to feedback from scientists and the community about ways we can modify our operations in order to protect the possum,” Mr Trushell said.

“We recognised we needed to make changes to the way we operate since the 2009 fires and have been involved in implementing a range of measures which have reduced harvest levels and resulted in more than 20,000 hectares of potential habitat being set aside.”

Mr Trushell said that if a national park was established, thousands of jobs would be impacted and pressure would shift to developing nations for timber needs.

The Central Highlands population of the possum is estimated to be between 2500-10,000, according to the Scientific Committee report, and 45 per cent of the animal’s habitat was destroyed in the 2009 Black Saturday bushfires.

At a press conference at Healesville Sanctuary on Thursday 23 April, Mr Hunt and Threatened Species Commissioner Gregory Andrews announced a Threatened Species Summit that would be held in Melbourne on 16 June.

Mr Hunt said that he hoped the Victorian Government would take a “strong stance” on the upgrading of the possum’s status, but did not want to speculate on its potential actions.

Letters Patch-up job SO ONCE again VicRoads is going to cobble together a “repair“ job on Chum Creek Road.

And just to make sure we all understand that these accidents were all our fault, they will reduce the speed limit to 60km/h.

Could I point out that there are distinct probabilities that the narrowness of the road, coupled with open drains, and lousy surfaces, and poor maintenance are much more likely to be the cause of these accidents, not the excessive speed limit of 70km/h.

Go along the Chum on any day and you can see vehicle drivers leaning on the centre lines, because they are too concerned about getting near the edges because of the poor conditions that we have put up with for years. Any bus or truck traffic has to be very wary of its placement on the road for fear of going over, because the road is too narrow, and woe betide any one of them that is faced with a similar-sized vehicle coming towards them.

A guard rail of 110 metres. Wow, that will save a lot of accidents. What about the other three kilometres? Then, who is to blame if a car hits a guard rail and is propelled into oncoming traffic? Surely that will be us, not Vicroads, who haven’t done anything other than a piecemeal repair on this road for decades.

So VicRoads, pipe all the drains, widen the shoulder so the road is a safe width and the rate of accidents will reduce as vehicle drivers can see the road is a bit safer to drive on. The speed limit was reduced to 60 years ago, and it lasted only a few months when it was realised it was ridiculous to have done so, and this should be realised now.

Steve Odell, Chum Creek.

Money down the drain PREMIER Daniel Andrews’ decision not to proceed with the former Coalition Government’s visionary East West Link infrastructure project will see Victorians paying out over $800 million.

That money could have been used to pay for a new Royal Children’s Hospital, a new suburban railway line, 19 brand-new trains, 25 brand-new schools, a new police station, even a new ambulance station.

This will cost local workers jobs; it will in-

crease business and living costs; it will likely see taxes rise to pay for the compensation and it will do nothing to reduce environmental pollution caused by cars stuck on congested roads.

Premier Andrews - stop throwing Victorian taxpayers’ money down the drain!

Christine Fyffe MP, State Member for Evelyn.

Vaccinations not for everyone HOW dare the government introduce compulsory vaccinations in a so-called free society!

This is Big Pharma’s clout testing the waters for worse to come. If vaccines prevent diseases, what is there to be afraid of from a few nonvaccinated people anyway?

Shame on politicians!

Let’s change this law quickly and expose whoever is behind it!

Alex Deans, Warburton.

It's about the tax, stupid IT'S about minimising declared profits and therefore paying less tax.

Low-tech, state-owned native forest logging corporation, VicForests, has been at it for years.

Since 2007 VicForests has posted total revenues of almost $1 billion raised from the sale of public woodchips and timber.

Two-thirds of this is paid to a small number of loggers and hauliers and the balance is spent on running VicForests, including the CEO’s wage of over $300,000 per annum, about the same as the Premier’s.

The result is little or no profit realised and next to no tax payable. Total tax paid in the same period has been less than $2 million - 0.18 per cent of revenues. Thus, the value vested in publicly-owned native forests is legally shifted into a relatively small number of private pockets.

The corporation is also supposed to pay a dividend to the State Treasury, for access to publicly-owned forests. Like tax, this is based on profits with the result that in most years it is assessed at “$nil". Dividends totalling $2.3 million, 0.24 per cent of revenues, have been paid since 2007 for the privilege of logging the equivalent of 16,000 MCGs of public native forest.

Steve Meacher, Toolangi.

Thanks for Luke I WOULD like to thank all community members in the Eildon Electorate who assisted in the search for 11-year-old Luke Shambrook near Lake Eildon over the Easter Weekend.

All Victorians drew a sigh of relief and comfort on hearing Luke had been successfully reunited with his family. It was an even more joyous occasion for Luke’s family and the emergency services workers and volunteers who were crucial in locating Luke in the bush.

When time was of the essence, our community rallied and provided the effort needed to conduct the search and save Luke from his terrible experience.

SES Units from Alexandra, Marysville, Healesville, Nillumbik, Kinglake and Mansfield worked with local Police, Parks Victoria officers, CFA members and Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning staff - away from their own families over the Easter break to assist the search.

What’s more, individual local community members and visitors to the region gave their time and effort freely to assist the search. In total some 150 volunteers throughout the state rose to the occasion, working towards a terrific outcome. It was yet another insight into how community comes together in a family’s moment of desperation.

On behalf of our community, I wish Luke and his family all the best and hope to see them back at Lake Eildon - a place already special to them but now even more so.

Cindy McLeish MP, State Liberal Member for Eildon, Shadow Parliamentary Secretary for Communities and Volunteers.

“A new east-west link is a priority infrastructure investment and major project.”

Labor now has no major infrastructure projects ready to go in Victoria.

Their recklessness in cancelling the EastWest Link, with no shovel ready alternative, will have a major impact on jobs and business in Victoria.

The Australian Government continues to have $3 billion on the table for the construction of this critical road.

Tony Smith, Federal Member for Casey.

East-West Link a priority investment DANIEL Andrews and Bill Shorten stand condemned for their opposition to the East-West Link and the loss of 7000 construction related jobs.

Bill Shorten’s opposition to this vital road and desertion of the people of the outer east and Yarra Valley is particularly galling - given he used to spruik the importance of the road for families, and jobs. In a formal submission, while AWU Secretary, Bill Shorten said:

Nepal pair safe TWO Healesville residents travelling through Nepal during last weekend’s devastating earthquake are alive and well, according to close family members.

Healesville’s Kent Highgate and Karen O’Brien were reported among the missing shortly after the 7.9 magnitude earthquake hit on Saturday 25 April, but have been located and are out of harm’s way, according to a family member.

Cherie Highgate said the pair, 56 and 53, were trekking through the country and had left Kathmandu before the earthquake hit.

They had been heading towards Mount Everest Base Camp, but were not in the area at the time of the earthquake.

Though contacting them had been difficult through the weekend, the pair had passed on a message that they were okay and Cherie said the family was waiting to hear from them about an exit strategy.

The powerful earthquake hit parts of Nepal on Saturday, killing more than 1800 people and leaving thousands more injured, with multiple building collapses devastating the country.

Cherie said they had been inundated with text messages and calls after media reports surfaced about the pair being missing, but wanted to reassure people that they were safe and sound.

She said both of the pair were professionally trained in emergency response.

Not just a new name… but also a new look with new sections.

Humble, heart of gold OBITUARY Bruce Oliver Born: 17 December 1931 Died: 23 March 2015 BRUCE Oliver was the epitome of the quiet achiever.

Described by his Gruyere CFA colleagues as a man from that special generation “humble, with a heart of gold” and “a true gentleman”, his contribution to Gruyere, Wandin and Mount Evelyn communities through community service and his work was immense.

A CFA guard of honour, with the Gruyere tanker leading the procession, was a fitting tribute to see him on his way after 60 years of service in the Wandin and Gruyere brigades.

Bruce, with his wife Greta (Sebire) was involved with the setting up of Mont De Lancey Historical Museum in Wandin.

He was a member of the Lilydale Historical Society, the Gruyere Progress Association, Wandin Yallock State School Committee, the Yarra Valley Machinery Preservation Society, the Lilydale Masonic Lodge and the Lilydale Branch of the Liberal Party.

He was born on 17 December 1931 and grew up in Lilydale with his parents Clarence and Ada Oliver, and younger sisters Val and Glenys.

He moved further up the valley when he courted his lifetime sweetheart, Greta Sebire, going to the pictures and to the local Wandin dances, as most of the community did in those days.

They married at the Methodist Church in Wandin on 24 July 1954, and had two sons, Garry and Richard.

He learnt his trade as a butcher in Lilydale and after a stint carting fruit for the Silvan Fruit Co-op, in the early ’60s he set up his own butcher’s shop in Mount Evelyn.

After retiring from the butcher trade, he and Greta bought a farm in Gruyere and he went into fencing which brought him into contact with people right throughout the valley, and beyond.

Bruce’s generous nature, strength of character, unflappable leadership and genuine willingness to help, were key themes in the tributes paid at the funeral service, attended by hundreds of people, at Heritage Pioneer Chapel in Woori Yallock on 30 March.

One of his oldest friends, and brother-in-law, Gordon Chapman, said they met at the Wandin dance when he was 17 and they were courting the Sebire sisters.

Bruce and Greta were awarded the Wandin Rotary Club’s Australia Day Citizenship Award in 2007 for the work they did at Mont De Lancey Historic Museum.

Gordon said Bruce was a quiet man who did an enormous lot of work in various organisations.

“He was quiet, but genuine and with great practical skills,” he said.

Gruyere CFA colleague Don Bigham had Bruce as a neighbor for more than 40 years.

“If you needed a hand, Bruce was the first to be there. If he needed a hand, he was not too proud to ask,” he said.

“No matter what Bruce did, he did it willingly. You never heard him complain about anything.”

Current Gruyere CFA captain, Matt Sartori, also paid tribute to Bruce as a

captain, mentor and life member of the Gruyere Fire Brigade.

Bruce started with Wandin Fire Brigade in 1954 and helped out with the Mount Evelyn brigade from time to time.

He transferred to Gruyere in 1974, and was captain from 1979 to 1985, leading the brigade through the Ash Wednesday campaign.

He then continued to serve as a firefighter for the next six years and took on the job of Fourth Lieutenant from 1991 to 1993, when he stepped back to encourage a new generation of leaders.

Matt was part of that new wave who benefited from Bruce’s example and mentoring.

“As a volunteer and captain, Bruce always kept a level head,” he said.

“He never raised his voice, never swore, always picked out the positive and didn’t dwell on the negatives.”

He said he was encouraging, approachable and a good mentor.

Bruce had a good life. He would say that. But tragedy struck the family in April 1997 when Garry was killed in a tractor accident.It was a painful and enduring loss for the family.

Bruce was ill for the last few years of his life, but Gordon said he was fortunate two years ago to welcome another little one to the family - greatgrandson, Logan.

“He was very, very pleased to be able to hold little Logan just a few months ago,” he said.

Bruce died on 23 March 2015, and is survived by his much-loved and loving family, Greta, son Rick, Garry’s wife Sue and their children Morgan and Bentley.

Bruce Oliver will be remembered as a man of integrity and commitment.

Music mania whiplashed Whiplash Starring J.K. Simmons, Miles Teller, Paul Reiser, Melissa Benoist Rated M WHIPLASH is a harrowing drama about musical obsession and how intense personality can get away with almost anything.

Andrew Neiman (Miles Teller) is a jazz student who wants to become one of the all-time great drummers, and struggles to gain the approval of his tyrannical conductor Mr Fletcher (J.K. Simmons).

Teller throws everything he’s got into his role, but

Simmons rightly steals the show (and won an Oscar) as Mr Fletcher, embodying with gusto a man of aggressive passion.

Fletcher may be one of cinema’s most perfectly realised anti-heroes: you hate him, yet find yourself strongly empathising with him in spite of yourself.

He is foul-mouthed, emotionally abusive and even violent, but works from an understandable position. He believes it is better to constantly push a prodigy to realise his potential, rather than praise him and risk him becoming complacent and not improv-

ing. It’s a horrible perspective, but it’s disturbingly logical.

Andrew’s consuming desire to succeed, as he pushes his family and girlfriend away and literally bleeds for his art, and the visible toll of Fletcher’s methods, make Whiplash incredibly tense. The suspense is bolstered by tight, precise editing and a nuanced, insightful screenplay (both of which also won Oscars this year).

Set in New York’s competitive music scene, Whiplash is a sterling character study and as riveting as any thriller.

Filling feast of classical music

By JESSE GRAHAM THE sound of classical music will fill halls across the Yarra Ranges through the coming months, with the council teaming up with the Melbourne Recital Centre in a new program.

On Wednesday 22 April, the Yarra Ranges Council officially launched its new Classical Tracks program, under the banner of its yearly Culture Tracks calendar of events, at Montrose Town Hall.

In a partnership with the Melbourne Recital Centre, Classical Tracks features performers from Australia and abroad, showcasing music spanning centuries from the Renaissance through to more modern pieces.

The program will host classical ensembles at Burrinja Cultural Centre in Upwey, Healesville’s Memo Hall, Montrose Town Centre and Warburton’s Upper Yarra Arts Centre, starting on Sunday 14 June, with a performance by The Consort of Melbourne.

The Consort will perform Songs of Earth and Sky: The Italian a capella tradition at The Memo, and give a brief performance on the opening night to give attendees a taste of what is to come.

Melbourne Recital Centre’s director of Programming and Presenter Services, Kirsten Siddle, spoke at the event and said the group was excited to be curating the musical program.

“I think that this program that we’ve put together collaboratively is a feast of music by anyone’s reckoning,” she said.

“In curating the series, we really wanted to celebrate Australian stars alongside some international guests - we wanted to have a real breadth of genres and repertoire, combining repertoire you may know with, hopefully, some wonderful, revelatory experiences for you along the way.”

Yarra Ranges mayor Maria McCarthy paid tribute to the

“Yarra Ranges is a place that values culture and our communities understand the profound and powerful influence that arts, culture and heritage have in shaping our lives,” she said.

“Classical music is integral for our cultural understanding, and, as with great art in other forms, the best classical music rewards concentrated and persisted attention - the more you listen to them, the more you

Renowned Canadian pianist Angela Cheng, world-leading guitar duo The Grigoryan Brothers and Australian duo Rebecca Chan and Kristian Chong are just some of the performances on the bill for the program, which will run until end August.

New look, old charm at the cafe CHERRY Tree has been reinvented as a steam-punk cafe wonderland, with a brand new look, brand new menu and old-school charm.

Serving sumptuous housemade cakes and locally roasted Chum Creek coffee, Cherry Tree Cafe provides an artisan food and coffee experience in a lavishly inviting atmosphere.

Owner Robyn McGregor brings an individual flavour to the new cafe space as well as 30 years’ experience in the hospitality industry.

She has also made Healesville her home for the past five years and is “proud to be part of the team that entertains visitors to the Yarra Valley as well as the locals”.

Coming with Robyn from Cafe Ra Ra in Richmond is barista Brendan who gained a following for his coffee served with skill and passion.

It’s been Brendan’s quest for

12 years to make the perfect cup of coffee every time.

Focusing on catering for specific dietary needs, Cherry Tree Cafe has a varied menu that offers gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan meals throughout the chef prepared menu.

Cherry Tree Cafe boasts tantalising seasonal menu items such as quinoa rosti with salmon for breakfast or a calamari and chorizo salad for lunch.

Chefs Lauren Kelso and Gillian Emmett prepare each meal with care and devotion, where ingredients are primarily sourced from local suppliers.

A liquor licence is pending for Cherry Tree Cafe but Ms McGregor is excited to offer a dinner menu once the premise is approved to serve alcohol.

“We look forward to supporting local wineries and breweries Brendan MacGregor and his coffee machine “Elektra”. 138163 in the near future,” she said.

Don’t live with ‘if only’

By KATH GANNAWAY “NO-ONE wants to be in a position where they are confronted with an ‘if only’ situation.”

Warburton Police Sergeant Tom Wilkinson is calling on individuals and the community as a whole to speak out to keep drunk and dangerous drivers off the roads.

“If only I’d intervened”.

“If only I’d rung the police”.

“If only...”

“People need to ask themselves, if they are aware of entrenched behaviour that puts others at risk, could I live with myself if I didn’t take some sort of affirmative action and someone died,” Sgt Wilkinson said as police and emergency services grappled with what more could be done to stop the death and injury on Yarra Valley roads.

Sgt Wilkinson said they were not tying an announced crackdown by police to the nexus of crashes, hotels, young drivers and alcohol.

No doubt, other factors can come into play - speed, inexperience, drugs, distraction, road condition.

Nonetheless, Sgt Wilkinson said Upper Yarra police had real concerns about alcohol, hotels and young drivers, and were cracking down even more heavily than they do already.

He said the Milners Road crash on 11 April which killed 21-year-old Charlie Robertson, left passengers Monique Kourvaras, 22, and Josh Bell, also 22, critically injured, and three others with minor injuries, had the potential to, in one night, meet the yearly average for deaths on Upper Yarra roads.

An 18-year-old girl from Cockatoo was the latest young person to die, caught out on a bend on the Healesville-Kooweerup Road at Yellingbo where there had been four serious crashes in the last couple of months.

She died at the scene on Sunday morning, 19 April.

There have been calls for more police on the back roads that are used as rat-runs, getting drivers off the highway and out of sight of police patrols.

But Upper Yarra SES spokesman, Russell Wulf, says police are out there, cracking down, and young people know it.

He has a lot of contact with young people in the Upper Yarra and his expe-

1178658-CB16-15

No way to get off P-plates. 138177 rience is that young people are already being hammered by police and talking about it.

“In private life I talk with a lot of young blokes and they know the pressure is on. They are aware of it, but keep doing silly things,” he said.

“I’ve said (to them) ‘you already have the Tattslotto numbers; you know they are there, so why would you do something that’s going to get you caught’.

“It’s not as if police are hiding, they are there.”

He says police action has had an impact over the years.

“When I first joined (the SES) they were getting 13 bad cut-outs a year,” he said.

“We’re now getting two a year, and I put that down to the police pressure.”

The nature of the tight-knit rural communities, Wulf says, also means police know who the people are who push the boundaries.

“Police are not stupid, they know

them and their friends, they just can’t be on the road 24 hours a day.”

In the end, it’s about backing your mates.

“You just take the keys, drop them, hide them.

“If you’re at a party and someone’s drunk and going to have a go at someone, everyone would jump in and stop it; why can’t they do that with drink driving?

He says girls are in a strong position to influence how boys behave just by not being part of it.

“Being older now I look back and look at influence boys have on girls,” he says.

“They say it’s a man’s world; that’s rubbish.

“When you’re young all you want to do is impress the girls.

“Girls can refuse to get in a car, and they can influence their boyfriends not to get in.”

He asks every young person, driver

or passenger, to remember they are sharing the roads with other friends and family members.

“They have to think about it ... they, or the person they are with, could be driving home and have a head-on with their own family ... their mother, father, brother or sister.

“How would they feel?”

Sgt Wilkinson says the community responsibility needs to stretch even further than the young people in the community.

The accord that was put in place between police and hotels and other licensed venues some years ago will be resurrected, reinforcing the responsibility, and potential implications, for people supplying alcohol.

“Given the footy season is here, we will be speaking as well with sporting clubs who are licensed in respect of their commitments, so we’re all working together in relation to associated road trauma,” he said.

It’s a community responsibility.

“If you see someone who is potentially a risk, ring triple-zero.

“Everyone has a responsibility and duty of care to prevent someone from driving - and that can mean advising us at the soonest opportunity.”

There is still a reluctance by people to phone triple-zero, which frustrates police who can be contacted on the road by the triple-zero operators when an incident is happening.

Getting a message on the station answering machine an hour or two later is often too late.

“It’s a different situation if someone wants to alert us to someone who is not actually on the road, but may be a recidivist drink-driver,” Sgt Wilkinson said.

“Information can be left at the station in that case, or phoned in through Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

“We’re happy to receive any information that may minimise the risk on the roads,” he said.

Athletes marking ser vice

By JAMIE STRUDLEY ON AN Anzac Day morning that means so much, Yarra Ranges Athletes came together on Saturday morning to recognise and commemorate.

Before the running of round 3 of the Yarra Ranges athletics XCR season, a special service, held at a drizzly Margaret Lewis Reserve in Coldstream, was led

by Rob Belli followed by a minute’s silence.

Once the running started, the athletes enjoyed the firm but slippery conditions. The traditional cross country course at Margaret Lewis Reserve brings out the best in our athletes, with

everyone relishing the challenge.

Results: 500m: Zoe Clarke 2.18, Hunter Shaw 2.37, Nathaniel Lucas 2.41. 1000m: Charlotte Comport 4.44, Cody Kear 4.53, Willem Poot 4.54.

1500m: Kiara Flavell 5.45, Madeline Laven 5.48, Mitchel Deckert 6.07. 2000m: Georgia Laven 7.16, Tayleb Willis 8.16, Tayja Maki 8.30. 3000m: Lachlan Scully 10.32, James Laven 10.59, Michael Clarke 11.14, Harrison Van Duuren 11.51, Jamie Strudley 12.13.

Next Saturday morning, cross country is at Morrison Reserve, Mount Evelyn. Be there from 8.45am to register.

Looked like a team

Competing in the cross country is Zoe and Ben. Put 23 May in your diary, your opportunity to run on the course to be used for Region Cross Country as Yarra Ranges athletes hold their cross country open day at Wandin Park,

Wandin. Details and entry information will be available on the website.

The junior footballers showed their respect before the big clash. 138190 Picture: KATH GANNAWAY

Juniors exude Anzac spirit THE traditional Anzac Day Clash was held between Healesville and Yarra Glen Junior Football club at Queens Park. The first game was the under-9s, with Healesville playing their first home game for the year.

The game was free-flowing with goals scored at both ends.

The under-10s then took the field, with Yarra Glen providing a strong contest for the Healesville team that has dominated over the past couple of rounds.

The Healesville under-12s once again showed their class with a great team effort to pile on the goals for another victory. The anticipated under-14s clash didn’t eventuate to the close game that was expected, with Healesville proving too strong

- and the win secured the Anzac honours for Healesville.

The under-16s took to the field for the final game of the day and both teams put in a strong performance in the first quarter, with score equal at quarter time, the Healesville team started to show their experience in the remaining quarters to run out 97-point winners.

The under-11 team played Monbulk. The first three quarters were a tight affair within Healesville remaining scoreless until the last quarter.

The boys almost pipped Monbulk in the last quarter, but Monbulk steadied and scored their last goal on the siren.

Big do, and close games

By JUDY ORREN YVMDFNL ALL games were played in the true Anzac spirit on the weekend.

It saw some close games and some big wins.

Kinglake braved the fog and came away winners with Chris Tarrant kicking 5.

Wandin A Grade scored a league record in its win over Woori Yallock.

This week’s games see Mount Evelyn take on Healesville, while Belgrave could get a game clear of Olinda.

DIVISION 1 SENIORS Yarra Glen 14.9 (93) d Mount Evelyn 11.16 (82) Yarra Glen has broken through for their first victory in first division, with a fantastic hardfought victory over Mount Evelyn.

Mount Evelyn started well and held Yarra Glen to just one goal in the first quarter, while they booted four majors to lead by 21 points at the first change.

The second quarter saw Yarra Glen play a more accountable game and even though they didn’t reduce the margin by much, they looked as though they were definitely getting back into the game as they went to half-time 17 points down.

Yarra Glen’s third quarter was superb. All of a sudden Mount Evelyn was chasing as Yarra Glen’s run and carry game came to the fore, Yarra Glen booted eight goals to three, giving them a 13-point lead at the last change.

The last quarter was frantic, as Mount Evelyn challenged on a few occasions but Yarra Glen was able to answer and hold on to record a great first win in first division.

Yarra Glen best players: D. Hurley (3 goals), J. Baughan, B. Ashton, S. Turner (5 goals).

Mount Evelyn best players: C. Haworth, D. Kift, D. Wootton, D. Eliades (3 goals).

Healesville 15.23 (113) d Warburton Millgrove 12.5 (77) Healesville never really looked threatened in this game; the only thing that kept Warburton close was Healesville’s inaccuracy.

Healesville booted 9.10 to 6.3 in the first half to lead by 25 points, but just hadn’t quite put Warby away.

Healesville extended its lead in the third, with a five-goal to 3 quarter to grab a 40-point advantage.

Healesville really should have run away in the last but they booted 1.10 to 3.2 which actually flattered Warby as the final margin was only 36 points.

Healesville best players: C. Warren, A. Davies, J. Savage (3 goals).

Warburton Millgrove best players: I. Andueza, B. Murphy, A. Joyce (1 goal).

Belgrave 13.20.98 def Upwey Tecoma 9.18.72 Belgrave is right back on track with a 28-point victory over Upwey.

This game was tight up to half-time with scores level at the long break, even though Belgrave had five more scoring shots.

The third quarter saw Belgrave control the play and should have really put the game away but they booted 4.9 to 2.3 to lead by 18 points and keep Upwey in the contest.

The last term saw Upwey pepper the goals.

If they took their opportunities, then the outcome could have been a lot different, but they scored 1.11 while Belgrave made the most of their chances, booting 4.1 to run out winners.

Belgrave best players: D. Collins, E. Clasby (1 goal), T. McNamara (1 goal).

Upwey best players: D. Waters (6 goals), B. Duncan, B. Hinton.

Wandin 17.19 (121) d Woori Yallock 8.10 (58) Wandin is looking the early front runner for the flag as they ran over last year’s premiers late in this game to run out comfortable 63-point victors.

This game really did belong to Wandin from the outset and even though they weren’t at their best in the first half they still led this game by 21 points.

Wandin got up and going in the third quarter,

and their pace across the ground started to worry Woori.

They booted five goals to two in the third to stretch the margin to 39 points and then they added another six goals to two in the last to finish the day off in pretty good style.

Wandin best players: S. Dwyer (4 goals), J. Myers, M. Polkinghorne (1 goal).

Woori Yallock best players: J. Adams, T. Gibson (3 goals), M. Baxter (1 goal).

Monbulk 12.8 (80) d Olinda Ferny Creek 8.7 (55) This game was a dire struggle with nothing separating the sides for the first three quarters.

Monbulk led by just two points at the first break after both sides could only manage one goal apiece for the term.

The second quarter opened up a little, but it was an even quarter with three goals each being scored and Monbulk leading by just one point at the long break.

The third quarter was once again an even contest as Monbulk went to the three-quarter time break with just a five-point advantage.

Monbulk was finally able to break the shackles in the last as they looked the fitter side as they finished with more run; they booted five goals to two to win by 25 points in what was a tough clash for three-and-a-half quarters.

Monbulk best players: S. Van Seters, K. Gray (1 goal), B. Emmett.

Olinda Ferny Creek best players: J. Rankin (1 goal), D. Rohrmann, C. Horner (1 goal).

DIVISION 2 SENIORS Kinglake 23.8 (146) d Yea 5.8 (38) There’s no doubt now that Kinglake is the team to beat this season after its third win in a row, with a 108-point demolition of Yea on the weekend.

Kinglake really put on a consistent four-quarter performance; they didn’t have a huge break out quarter by any means but they just kept hitting the scoreboard all day.

In the end, Kinglake was just simply way too good and are looking an unstoppable unit after three rounds.

Kinglake best players: B. Wilkinson (1 goal), L. Arthurson, J. Nixon (7 goals).

Yea best players: J. Marasco (1 goal), J. Crowe, D. Skilling.

Seville 14.8 (92) d Alexandra 7.11 (53) A consistent four-quarter effort from Seville saw them triumph by 39 points over Alexandra.

Although Seville didn’t dominate the game, they never looked too threatened as they ran away in the second half.

Seville led by just 11 points at the main break, but they took control from there on out, they booted five goals to two in the third to jump out to a 29-point lead and then finished the day with a four-goal to two last quarter to win in what was comfortable fashion.

Seville best players: A. Knight, L. Casini, S. Wilson (2 goals), N. O’Keefe (7 goals).

Alexandra best players: N. Dundas, B. Wollard, I. Hedger (1 goal).

Powelltown 11.10 (76) d Thornton Eildon 6.12 (48) For the first half of this game, it was a ripper contest.

Although not the prettiest game to watch, it was tough uncompromising football.

Powelltown only led by seven points at the main break and it looked as though this game was going to go down to the wire.

The third quarter saw Powelltown make the most of their chances as they scored 3.1 while Thornton was astray booting 1.5, which saw Powelltown take a 15-point lead going into the last.

Powelltown’s defence was great in the last quarter as they held Thornton to just two points, while they added another two majors to win by 28 points in a gruelling contest.

Powelltown best players: D. Hadjer, J. Walker, T. Hallmark.

Thornton-Eildon best players: B. Musgrove, R. Chapman (1 goal), Z. Vujasic (2 goals).

Emerald 12.17 (89) d Gembrook Cockatoo 6.8 (44) Emerald wasn’t at their dominant best, but

The footballers locked arms as the Anzac Day tributes took place. 138205 Pictures: Greg Carrick

they still managed a sizeable 45-point victory over Gembrook.

Emerald started to get on top in the second half and really stretched the margin in the third, as they slotted four goals to one to stretch the margin to 32 points.

The last quarter was a similar story to the third, with Emerald adding to their lead, they booted three last-quarter goals to one to win in what wasn’t a pretty contest but a win all the same.

Emerald best players: C. Porter (2 goals), K. Asling, D. Ferry (2 goals).

Gembrook Cockatoo best players: C. Vernal, R. Delphine (1 goal), R. Wilson.

UNDER 18s Mt Evelyn 9.10 (64) d Yarra Glen 8.12 (60) Healesville 19.18 (132) d Warburton Millgrove 1.0 (6) Wandin 10.11 (71) d Woori Yallock 5.10 (40) Olinda Ferny Creek 13.11 (89) d Monbulk 6.12 (60) Emerald 33.20 (218) d Powelltown 0.0 (0) DIVISION 1 A GRADE NETBALL Mount Evelyn 33 d Yarra Glen 30 Mount Evelyn has inflicted Yarra Glen with its first loss in first division.

Mount Evelyn led at every change but was never in real control as Yarra Glen challenged all day, Mount Evelyn led by just two goals at quarter time, three goals at the half and by just one goal at the last change.

The last quarter was of finals quality with plenty of pressure applied.

Mount Evelyn was just that little cleaner with fewer mistakes which saw them hold on to win by three goals in what was a fantastic contest.

Mount Evelyn best players: Rachael Hickey (18 goals), Bridgette Barry-Murphy, Victoria Starling.

Yarra Glen best players: Prue Purdey, Hillary Grubb, Georgia Taylor (21 goals).

Healesville 34 d Warburton Millgrove 29 Healesville found some much-needed form to break through for their first win with a five-goal victory over Warburton.

Healesville looked really good in the first half and even though it wasn’t a high scoring contest, they led by 11 goals at the half, they maintained that lead at the last change as both teams scored eight goals in an even third quarter.

Warby did give it their all in the last and were finishing the stronger, but it was all too late as Healesville held on to win by five goals.

Healesville best players: Bianca Grimshaw, Caitlyn Jeffress, Georgia Murty.

Warburton Millgrove best players: Bianca Daniels (7 goals), Morgan Brumby, Jaime Lord (3 goals).

Wandin 106 d Woori Yallock 13 The less said about this game the better for Woori Yallock, but that would be taking away from Wandin who was nothing short of unbelievable.

Wandin showed no mercy as they attacked relentlessly for the entire four quarters, they scored an incredible 53 goals up to half-time, while Woori looked flat footed and only had five goals on the board.

Incredibly, Wandin didn’t slow down in the second half as they double their half-time score by game’s end to end the day with 106 goals.

Wandin best players: Tayissa Coppinger, Melissa Martinov (44 goals), Jackie Cullimore (62 goals).

Woori Yallock best players: Stacey Southwick, Claire Williams, Ashley Shanks.

Shawn Andueza (Warburton/Millgrove) flies for the mark in the hotly contested match.

Olinda Ferny Creek 68 d Monbulk Hawks 13 A terrific four-quarter performance from Olinda who never really gave Monbulk a look in all day.

Olinda led by seven goals at quarter time but really got their run and carry going in the second term, scoring 20 goals to two to take control of the game and a 25-goal lead into half time.

The second half was all Olinda as they went on a goal-scoring spree, adding another 35 goals to their total, while Monbulk only added another five and they all came in the last term after a scoreless third.

In the end, Olinda walked off with a very impressive victory.

Olinda Ferny Creek best players: Tess Linkins (39 goals), Krista Tomlinson, Ashlee Howard (29 goals).

Monbulk Hawks best players: Tahlia Northey (11 goals), Sophie Byatt (2 goals), Brooke Northey.
