Winery gets tick

By Casey Neill Yarra Glen residents are cautiously optimistic that strict conditions will keep a neighbouring winery in check.

Yarra Ranges Councillors voted on an application to build a function centre at Greenstone Vineyards on Yarraview Road at their Tuesday 24 July meeting.

The marquee would mainly be used for weddings and would hold up to 150 people.

Cr Fiona McAllister said the initial proposal was to operate 7am to 1am daily "which was excessive".

An acoustic report forced Greenstone to scale these hours back due to noise restrictions, but Cr McAllister moved an alternative motion that reigned in the hours even further.

The venue will be allowed to open from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Thursday, from 9am to 10.30pm on Fridays, 10am to 10.30pm on Saturdays and noon to 6pm on Sundays.

Music must cease at 5pm Monday to Thursday, 10pm on Friday and Saturday, and 6pm on Sundays.

"I am very torn between a deferral and doing what we're doing tonight," Cr McAllister said.

"I know if we end up in VCAT through a deferral that's probably not the best decision.

"I would rather we try to reach a reasonable decision tonight.

"This significant reduction in operating hours should ease resident concerns."

She said she couldn't think of another area where a winery abutted a residential area in the same way.

"I think we have a very high duty of care around this," he said.

"Yarra Glen is a quiet, rural township.

"People live there for that reason."

The application received 36 objections, including a petition, raising concerns about traffic and parking, noise, dust, pedestrian and equestrian safety, excessive trading hours, security, landscaping and aesthetics, property devaluation and wastewater management.

Fear for farm’s future Volunteers are keeping Yarra Glen’s Gulf Station going, but can’t keep doing it alone.

Among them are Mike Ridley and Peter Petherbridge, pictured with Clydesdale Gill.

John, who didn't want his surname published, spoke on behalf of residents at the meeting and to the Mail.

He was pleased with Cr McAllister's amendments but said residents were still concerned about traffic and whether the winery would have to abide by the conditions.

"What disturbs me is that every one of those things can be overridden by an authorised officer," he said.

John said the area was quiet day and night and the roads were "basically dead ends for local traffic only".

He said the winery held a jazz afternoon

and "we can hear it very plainly and we're two blocks away".

John said the council had not notified all neighbours who would be affected, and many only found out about the application through word of mouth and too late to object.

"We believe council has been negligent in their lack of correspondence," John said.

In response, Cr McAllister said the concern about who policed the permit conditions was valid and "I think we need to be very diligent in our support ... ".

She was "very disturbed to hear of the process" around the application and had spoken to staff about it.

YARRA RANGES

Kate McMahon spoke at the meeting on Greenstone's behalf.

She said the winery had a long history in the community, was a "great employer of locals for many years" and would be able to provide more jobs through this expansion.

Ms McMahon said the marquee was a natural extension of its cellar door, which operated 10am to 5pm, Thursday to Monday and had caused no issues.

She said Joanne from Greenstone welcomed locals to express their concerns to her directly, and the vineyard was working with the community on blackberry management issues.

INSTA-PIC

“Liberal And National Party MPs Referred To Victoria Police.”

Sigh.

When this email from Monbulk MP James Merlino landed in my inbox over the weekend, my reaction was one of fatigue.

With still four months until the State Election and a Federal Election looming for next year, I’m already weary of the constant sniping.

The government slams the opposition for inaction on one issue; the opposition retaliates with “yeah, but you haven’t done xyz” and vice-versa.

I worry that if I’m exhausted by this childish back and forth - as a journalist with a keen interest in politics - the average voter will be close to tuning out completely.

Apathy doesn’t help either side of politics and certainly doesn’t do the community any good.

But I feel like the near-constant accusations of inaction and impropriety is breeding apathy.

I fear the result will be like the old ‘boy who cried wolf’ - a politician will make a serious error worthy of condemnation but voters will have already tuned out, and it will slide under the radar.

As a news organisation we have a duty to ensure this doesn’t happen.

We need to cut through the political back and forth and get to the heart of local issues, to help our readers make an informed decision at the ballot box on Saturday 24 November.

Cardinia Shire Mayor Collin Ross encouraged the community to celebrate National Tree Day on Sunday 29 July by nominating a tree of significance to the council's Significant Tree Register.

"Nominating a tree for the Significant Tree Register is easy to do online, and will help us to better protect our local trees of significance for the benefit of our environment and the enjoyment of our community," he said.

Foodbank already provides 11,903 meals in the area each month, but urged people to support its national public appeal to meet the rise in need for food assistance over winter.

"At this time of the year, we have families struggling to make ends meet, with meal-skip-

"With 40 per cent of food insecure households families with dependent children, it's crucial that we do more to get food on their dining tables."

IN BRIEF

McLeish laughs at office staff claims

By Casey Neill Eildon MP Cindy McLeish says claims she misused electorate office staff are "laughable".

Monbulk MP James Merlino announced on Sunday 29 July that he'd referred 18 Liberal and National Party MPs to Victoria Police for investigation for allegedly using electorate office staff for political campaigning during normal business hours.

He said the evidence provided to the police included "clear political campaigning by electorate office staff".

"I have also requested that Victoria Police investigate the leave status of ministerial staff employed by the former Napthine Government during the 2014 Victorian election campaign," Mr Merlino said.

"It's clear that a significant number of Ministerial advisors did not take leave during the caretaker period and instead worked at the direction of then Liberal Party state director, and now convicted criminal, Damian Mantach.

"This allowed the Liberal Party to access taxpayer funded expenditure in the order of $2 million for the Liberals' re-election campaign.

"The Liberal Party and National Party refused to have the behaviour of their own MPs

Eildon MP Cindy McLeish. investigated by the Ombudsman - they can no longer hide from that scrutiny."

Ms McLeish said: "For 20 minutes this morning (Monday 30 July) James Merlino

fronted the media and could not provide one single piece of evidence to support his claims."

She said his accusation was "a laughable political stunt ... coming from a government who has six ministers under police investigation".

Ms McLeish was referring to Friday's news that Victoria Police had launched a criminal investigation into the Labor Party's 'red shirt rorts' - using $388,000 in parliamentary staff allowances to pay staff who were working fulltime as ALP campaigners ahead of the November 2014 election.

"Victoria Police undertook reassessment of the material in relation to allegations of misuse of parliamentary budget entitlements to determine if further investigation was required," a statement said.

"This assessment has now been completed and a formal investigation will now be conducted by the Fraud and Extortion Squad.

"As this is an active and ongoing investigation, it would not be appropriate to provide further comment at this time."

Mr Merlino was among several ministers who benefited from these campaigners working in their offices.

Home-grown mural makes a real splash

By Casey Neill Home-grown artist Paul Sonsie has made his mark on a blank wall at Healesville Primary.

The school held an assembly on Friday 27 July to officially unveil the murals - one featuring a platypus and the other a magpie.

Artist Paul Sonsie with his magpie mural.

Paul grew up in Healesville, though attended Badger Creek Primary before heading to Healesville High School.

He's now making a living from his art and enjoys opportunities to give back to his home town.

"I love doing public artworks and I love working with kids," he said.

"Openings like these bring art to life."

Paul said the students were inspired by an ibis he'd painted in Main Street.

"They loved the black and white style," he said.

The platypus is the school emblem so was an obvious subject.

"The swooping magpie - that's in everyone's school yard memories," Paul said.

Students Lara, Ishie, Imogen, Mia, Ru, Alex, Alex, Riley and Darcy with the platypus mural.

Highway patrol report On Saturday 28 July at 8:55am, Yarra Ranges Police intercepted a Ford Ranger utility that was doing 93km/h in a 60 zone.

The 27-year-old male driver was found to be a disqualified driver and also returned a positive result for illicit drugs.

His vehicle was immediately impounded for 30 days at a cost of $1017 and he will face court on summons at a future date in relation to all charges.

Deer shooting Sergeant at Warburton Police Station, Tom Wilkinson is urging members of the public to ring triple 0, if they hear any suspicious shots.

The call comes after what Sgt Wilkinson said has been a spate of deer shooting in the Yarra Valley.

"We've had a spate of deer hunting and deer shooting so we're asking members of the community that if they hear any shots or see anything in respect to deer hunting to immediately call triple 0."

Sgt Wilkinson said that those shooting illegally will face serious charges including conduct endangering life.

For those ringing triple 0 Sgt Wilkinson said it was important to provide as many details as possible.

"As much information as possible: where, when, if there's any vehicles, if they can't see the vehicle, the sound of the vehicle and if possible the direction of travel," he said.

Anyone who sees anything suspicious is urged to ring triple 0.

Winter campfire warning Winter is no excuse to leave campfires burning, warns Parks Victoria.

Parks Victoria rangers and Forest Fire Management Victoria officers are urging visitors to follow campfire guidelines after responding to 45 unattended campfires on public land this winter.

"Too many people are leaving campfires unattended or not extinguishing them properly placing people and parks at risk," Parks Victoria fire and emergency director David Nugent said.

"Even in winter, campfires can escape into surrounding bush and damage campgrounds and assets.

"Campers should always extinguish a campfire with plenty of water, not soil.

"Fire can keep burning under dirt and reignite if coals are still smouldering under the surface.

"A good rule to follow is: if it's safe to touch, it's safe to leave."

About 10 per cent of bushfires are caused by campfires that escape and spread into surrounding bush.

"It takes a lot of time, effort and personnel to respond to a fire, so when campfires escape and could have been prevented by following the rules, it's very frustrating," Forest Fire Management Victoria chief fire officer Darrin McKenzie said.

Sunday burning ban lifted

By Casey Neill New local laws for burning off are now in place.

Yarra Ranges Councillors voted to make the Open Air Burning Local Law at their Tuesday 24 July meeting, but not unanimously.

Cr Jim Child moved an alternative recommendation with support from Cr Fiona McAllister over concern about biosecurity. His changes removed a ban on Sunday burning in rural areas and added mention of burning for biosecurity control alongside burning for fire prevention.

Cr Child said farmers couldn't predict when they'd need to burn for biosecurity, when the right conditions would present, and when a burn-off might need to continue over a Sunday.

"We need to allow our farmers the right to farm and manage their properties in a sustainable manner," he said.

"Our farmers have been in this so long.

They know what they're doing."

Crs Noel Cliff and Mike Clarke opposed the

alternative motion.

"I can go along with basically everything in it, except the Sundays," Cr Cliff said.

"Sundays is when we get the bulk of our six million visitors.

"I don't want to do anything that I think could jeopardise that."

He suggested a permit for Sunday burns deemed necessary.

"We've managed to survive Sundays without smoke for forever," he said.

"Let's not wreck what we've got here."

But Cr Child said a permit system was impractical.

He said farmers worked seven days a week.

"Mother nature works seven days a week, too," he said.

Cr Clarke said allowing burning on Sundays meant "we're just not giving the atmosphere a rest".

"I think we should be taking some days out

during the week to help restore those atmospheric conditions," he said.

He referenced a verbal submission from Emerald resident Kate Forster at the meeting, which raised health concerns.

She told councillors that "smoke pollution knows no boundary" and burning off produced "a toxic soup" that "need not be visible to be harmful".

"Burning biomass creates black carbon, a significant contributor to global warming," Ms Forster said.

She said 24-hour burning was allowed in Cardinia Shire and fire brigade call-outs increased when people took their eyes off their burn around dinner time.

Ms Forster suggested Yarra Ranges work with the community on education and creative alternatives to burning off.

Cr Tim Heenan advocated for stronger enforcement to stop people burning green or wet materials.

The council received more than 210 submissions on the local law and heard verbal submissions at a special committee meeting in June.

Yarra Ranges Mayor Len Cox, said the local law would be in place for the next 10 years.

"As a result of the community's feedback, we've made changes to ensure the local law works for our residents, while striking the balance between the need to burn off excess vegetation and the right of our residents to live in comfort without excess smoke," he said.

The local law removed the prohibition on open air burning in June and July in rural areas, the 8am to 6pm time limit, the requirement to have an adult in attendance during burning in rural areas, the restriction on multiple fires, and the fire size limit of one cubic metre.

The maximum wind speed under which burns are allowed is now 19 kilometres an hour, and permits are only required for burning off in urban areas.

Another step forward for Advent Care and its ‘queen’

By Kath Gannaway Eileen Glover has million dollar views to the Yarra River and she leaves no-one in any doubt that she is "living like a queen".

Eileen, 93, came to Advent Care Yarra Ranges aged care facility in Warburton on a permanent basis just three months ago, after staying for a short stint of respite care. She has all the energy and enthusiasm of a real estate agent as she shows visitors around her new room, one of 13 just completed as part of Stage 2 of a $2.7 million redevelopment.

"I can see the river, I can see the road and I can see the bridge just looking out my window," she says, adding that with breakfast in bed and wonderful staff "I feel like I'm on holidays the whole time".

Stage 1 of the three-stage redevelopment was

completed in October last year adding 19 fully compliant resident rooms and this latest work brings the total number of rooms up to 32.

The redevelopment to date has seen spacious rooms with ensuite facilities, a new chapel, and refurbished dining room, and in what is believed to be an Australian first for an aged care facility, thermoskirt hydroponic heating concealed in the skirting boards.

While a number of rooms have views to the Yarra River, main road aspects and the inclusion of courtyards, and picture windows, has ensured all have views to the outdoors.

The project is a triumph for Advent Care and the Warburton community with the facility threatened with closure in 2016.

Advent Care CEO David Reece said the decision by the AdventCare Board to redevelop

and expand the facility was made possible through tremendous community support, including support of the Warburton/Yarra Junction Bendigo Community Bank.

Along with the physical redevelopment, there has been an increase in staff and staff hours to cater for the additional residents.

Stage 2 was officially opened by Yarra Ranges Council Mayor Len Cox on Thursday, 26 July.

Cr Cox congratulated everyone involved in the project saying there was a demonstrated need for quality aged-care facilities.

"The need is growing very greatly all the time and will continue to do so as the population continues to grow," he said.

Joining other officials, staff and residents and their families for a tour of the new section, he said he was tremendously impressed.

LETTERS

My dear friend, and a friend to many in the Healesville community, Rev Dipaloko, passed away peacefully at Maroondah Hospital after a short illness.

Rev finally settled in Healesville after travelling to Australia as a Burmese Buddhist monk, however following turmoil in his own country, he could not return.

He became a political refugee, disrobed and became a lay Buddhist.

Rev helped many people, from strangers to friends.

Guided by Buddhist practice he never missed an opportunity to show compassion and kindness.

A service to celebrate and honour his life will be held at the Darron Honey Center, Uniting Church, 286 Maroondah Highway, Healesville on Thursday 2 August at 1pm.

Anyone touched by Revâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life is welcome to come to help send him on his way.

Kathleen Holton, Healesville.

What an inspiration!

The story on Cliff and Nance who have danced their way through 70 years together is inspirational.

They are lovely old people who have always been so welcoming to new folk who come to town.

The story on the demise of the eagle was emotional because it was a reminder that we all get to fly away one day.

Stanley R Burgess, Healesville.

Clean-up call I would like to lend my support to the letter from Sue Slusarek published on 17 July concerning the old Sanitarium Weetbix factory that sports the appealing but disingenuous euphemism of The Edgewater Spa resort.

Warburton is one of the most beautiful tourist destinations in the Yarra Valley and

slap bang in the middle of town is a magnificent, heritage listed art deco building.

This is my euphemism for the bombsite and appalling mess that is the Sanitarium.

Broken windows, graffiti, temporary cyclone fencing, often blown down leaving easy access to abandoned and water-filled excavation pits.

What on earth must our tourist visitors with money in their pockets think when they come upon this blight in the middle of our beautiful landscape?

When I walk around the perimeter of this building with my two little dogs I see a stopped art deco clock and bare concrete silos, fouled with pigeon guano but topped with rent-paying smart phone towers.

I can't help thinking of double standards and what that means when it comes to spending money on this site.

When people keep promising but not delivering then the audience stops listening.

I would like to know why the council and state authorities don't fine the owner of this site on a regular and on-going basis for not keeping it in a safe and orderly condition compatible with the rest of our beautiful town.

The way a farmer would be held to account for mending his fences or the way a person in a high-risk fire area would be held to account for not slashing their property in fire season.

My suggestion to the owners of this site is to sell it on to a business enterprise that has the money and the desire to develop it into a successful venture that will benefit the local community and attract the tourist dollar.

To finish on a positive note, I would like to suggest that the property be cleaned up and made into a public recreational space at the owner's cost - perhaps a park or a botanical garden for the use of the local community whilst these rich interstate developers prevaricate for another 10 years.

IN BRIEF

CEO leaves council Yarra Ranges Council will have a change of leadership following the resignation this week of CEO Glenn Patterson.

Mr Patterson will take up the position of CEO at the City of Casey in September.

With a population of 327,380 as at 2017, Casey is more than double Yarra Ranges' population of 156,982, but in a vastly more condensed landscape of 409 square kilometres compared with Yarra Ranges' 2470 square kilometres.

Mayor Len Cox confirmed Mr Patterson’s resignation, saying he had been with Yarra Ranges for 10 years.

“I am disappointed that Glenn is leaving ...

90 and loving it!

By Kath Gannaway Growing up in Healesville, going to the local dances, family, hours enjoyed in the garden were just some of the lovely memories Enid Richards shared at her 90th birthday celebration.

Enid, whose parents were local butcher Alex Christie and Doris, was guest of honour at an afternoon tea to celebrate her 90th birthday on Saturday, 21 July, at Healesville RSL. Enid said she grew up at her grandmother's house in Farnham Road before the family, including her only sister, Juel, moved to Green Street right in the heart of the town.

"I was six years old when we moved," she said. "Dad had a butcher shop opposite the Grand Hotel and then next to the Middle Hotel.

"We went to Healesville State School and as we grew up we loved the local dances. Both Juel and I loved to dance," she said.

Enid and husband Dick, a past president of the RSL, had three children, Sandra, now

from a strictly selfish point of view, and all the council is of the same mind,” Cr Cox said.

He said that with the help of the council, Mr Patterson had turned Yarra Ranges Council around.

“The place is running extremely well and a lot of it is due to Glenn’s ability,” he said.

“Not only has he the ability to run staff, but to speak to anybody at any level. He relates to people very well.

“He has been quite an asset to Yarra Ranges Council.”

Mr Patterson served as CEO at the Colac Otway Shire and Baw Baw Shire councils before joining Yarra Ranges.

Announcing Mr Patterson’s appointment on Enid with son John Richards, daughter Pam Ockwell and grandson Danny Wilson.

Enid enjoyed her 90th birthday cards, and received a Certificate of Recognition from Casey MP Tony Smith.

"90 is just another day ... age has never bothered me," Enid said of moving up a notch to nonagenarian.

of the Monda community.

"Every day is a party there," she said. The girls at Monda are just beautiful and I still get to poke a few things into the gardens there."

She has a plan for the future too. "Grandma lived to 104 and mum into her 90s, so I think I still have a few years ahead of me yet."

Yarra Ranges Council received a 130-signature petition in opposition to a phone tower in Wesburn.

Councillors accepted the petition at their Tuesday 24 July meeting.

It related to a planning application to use and develop 20 Settlement Road for a telecommunications facility.

Residents have concerns regarding the negative impact that native vegetation removal will cause, including loss of habitat.

They also raised worries about intrusion into SES flight path, noise, health hazards, and the impact the development might have on the landscape.

Residents believe the development is not necessary, due to the adequate services provided by local telecommunications infrastructure.

The petition will be considered as part of the planning permit application process.

Wednesday 25 July, Casey Mayor Geoff Ablett praised his passion, leadership and vision.

“His extensive experience in local government and his strong commitment to community shone through,” he said of the unanimous appointment.

Mr Patterson is quoted in the release as saying he is “excited by the challenge of leading the organisation in an exciting future”.

Cr Cox said the next step for the Yarra Ranges was to find a replacement.

“We will meet on Tuesday (31 July) to decide who to use to help us find a CEO and to discuss other arrangements for an interim replacement when Glenn leaves,” he said.

A new CEO is not expected to be appointed before the start of next year.

A Wandin East man will answer stalking and reckless driving charges after allegedly doing donuts on a football field.

Yarra Ranges CIU Detectives said a witness, 73, reported seeing the man driving on Wandin East Recreation Reserve on Thursday 7 June.

They said the witness went to close the gate when the driver exited, and an altercation ensued in which the witness' car was damaged with a rock.

Following a police investigation, officers arrested a 25-year-old Wandin East man and charged him with 25 offences, including reckless conduct endangering serious injury, stalking, driving in a dangerous manner, driving a vehicle causing loss of traction, and criminal damage.

He's due to appear in Ringwood Magistrates' Court on 13 December.

IN BRIEF Million-dollar road relief

Tribute to Zillah

The Steels Creek Road Rehabilitation project is a step closer to fruition.

Yarra Ranges Councillors awarded the $1.6 million contract to Bitu-mill at their Tuesday 24 July meeting.

Works are expected to start in August and be completed within 80 Master Builders Association of Victoria (MBAV) calendar days.

The project will include road stabilisation, driveway crossings, kerb and channel and underground drainage between Hubbard and Gulf roads, and Gulf Road and Pinnacle Lane.

The council report said the existing road pavements in these areas were beyond their service life and had large areas of failure and deformation.

"Rehabilitation of road pavements is required to continue the service of the current road assets," it said.

By Kath Gannaway Making the most of life was Zillah Postlethwaite's golden rule.

She was a resilient and vibrant lady.

Zillah passed away on 30 June, 2018, aged 90, after what she would almost certainly have deemed 'a fortunate life', having overcome many challenges along the way.

Zillah was born in Yarra Glen on 13 April, 1928, the youngest of Leslie Stanley Gordon Bell and his wife Zillah Emmeline Bell's three children. She had a brother Doug and a sister Joan with whom she shared a strong bond, and the childhood memories typical of life growing up in a small country town.

Her mother died when she was just five and for a time she went to live in Gippsland to live with relatives, returning when she was about eight years old after her father remarried Dorothy.

Tragically, he died just a couple of years later.

Zillah went to Yarra Glen State School and from there went to work on the family farm, but more hardship was to come when the farm was lost during the depression. She also spent time at Gulf Station with her cousins, the Bells.

She married Jack Postlethwaite in 1951 in the Presbyterian Church at Yarra Glen, the same church from which she was farewelled.

They had three children, Lynette, John and Shane. After Lynette's death in 1996, at the age of 68, Zillah cared for her granddaughter, Rebecca.

Estranged from Jack, Zillah was on her own since the mid-80s, making the most of a simple life. She worked for a long time as a cleaner at the Yarra Valley Clinic, and refused to let the grass grow under her feet as she got older.

"She had a positive attitude to life and despite some health issues, she lived in her own home until just recently," her son John said.

Grants to help sport participation

Zillah Postlethwaite - typically smiling.

"Mum liked the social side of things and was a popular member of a number of groups in Healesville.

"She went to New Zealand with friends at stayed in backpackers when she was in her 80s and loved it," he said.

Zillah was involved in Healesville Probus and Senior Citizens Club, joined U3A and particularly loved line dancing and singing with

the Rocky Road Choir.

Songs recorded by the choir were played at the service in her honour.

"Mum did so many things, and despite living through some tough times, was pretty resilient," John said.

Zillah will be missed and fondly remembered by her family and many friends.

Healesville High School, Upper Yarra Secondary College and Millwarra Primary School will get a boost to their interschool sport participation thanks to a grant from the State Government’s Active Kids initiative.

Labor Upper House Member for Northern Victoria, Jaclyn Symes, announced on Tuesday, 24 July, that the three Yarra Valley schools were among 300 around the state to shae in the $1.1 million funding pool.

The funding is for disadvantaged primary, secondary and specialist schools to support them overcome cost barriers to participate in interschool sport and will help cover costs such as equipment, uniforms, transport, entry fees, coaching, venue hire and coverage of relief teachers.

“We know that the cost of interschool sports can be a barrier for students participating in sports, which is why we’re helping Northern Victoria schools cover those costs.

“Happy, healthy students are better students and interschool sports are a great way to engage children in physical activity,” Ms Symes said.

Lions share to community

By Kath Gannaway Community members gathered at Healesville RSL on Wednesday, 25 July, as the Lions Club of Healesville hosted its annual disbursements dinner meeting.

Representatives from schools, emergency services, pre-schools and other youth, welfare and community organisations accepted donations totaling $29,950 and gave a brief rundown of the projects that would benefit.

Donations ranged from $500 to $2000 with Yarra Glen Guides, HICCI, Melba Support Services' Able Bakery, Yarra Valley Tourist Railway and Badger Creek Men's Shed among those included in the mix.

Lions member and Master of Ceremonies, Stephen Stafford, said the majority of the funds raised and passed on to the 3777 and wider communities came from the Lions Den Opportunity Shop and thanked the Lions volunteers for their dedication and

many, many hours of volunteering.

This year's event marks the 56th year of the Lions Club of Healesville and 23 years since they opened the shop.

Projects identified by the groups ranged from a new gazebo for Chum Creek Primary School and Ipads for Yarra Glen CFA's fire trucks to defibrillators at Dixons Creek CFA, new jumps at Healesville Pony Club and making the swimming program accessible to all at

Woori Yallock Primary School.

Woori Yallock representatives Jenna and Alex encapsulated the many expressions of gratitude.

"We understand that this money has not just appeared by magic so we would like to thank the Lions Club members for all their hard work," they said.

ENTERTAINMENT

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t break this one up The Breaker Upperers Starring Madeleine Sami and Jackie van Beek Rated M Written and directed by stars Madeleine Sami and Jackie van Beek, The Breaker Upperers is a hilarious and genuinely moving New Zealand comedy.

Mel (Sami) and Jen (van Beek) are two best friends who run a business for helping people to break up with their partners. Their one rule is not to get attached to their clients, but when Mel does just that, zany complications ensue.

Sami and van Beek have phenomenal chemistry as endearing, engagingly flawed protagonists, and they have a real flair for writ-

Re-living True Confessions

ing witty yet natural dialogue and balancing pathos with bonkers absurdity.

The Breaker Upperers has a generally aimless flow, but this captures the frequent messiness of life, suits the listless, unfulfilled mood of its characters and serves to further immerse you in their struggles. The narrative is still wellstructured, as it contains some clever seeding of little details to set up later conflicts in Mel and Jen's relationship.

Much of the humour is crude or gross-out in nature, but never crosses into excessive or overbearing territory. The Breaker Upperers is a deeply affable comedy with a big heart.

By Kath Gannaway Dylan is back. And he's in excellent company!

The success of Healesville musician Jeff Jenkins' 'DYLANesque' has been phenomenal ... but like an author of a first blockbuster novel, it left the obvious question ... "what next".

It was a question Jenkins and his team have answered with their new show 'True Confessions Revisted', set to rock The Memo in Healesville on Saturday, 18 August.

Jenkins says the answer was as obvious as the question ... - you add a couple more rock legends into the mix. So, Dylan, Petty and Nicks.

Bob Dylan and Tom Petty made history when they joined forces for one of the greatest concerts of all time, on their True Confessions tour in 1986 and Jenkins leaves fans (and future fans) in no doubt about the impact that tour had on him, both as a fan and a musician.

"It was an incredible coupling of two of the greatest artists coming together on one bill that the world has ever seen," he says.

"If you were there at Kooyong in '86, you should see our show; if you weren't there in '86, you should see our show," he adds with some of the humour audiences have enjoyed in DYLANesque.

"32 years on, and people still refer to the True Confessions Tour as one of the most remarkable gigs they've ever been to - it holds legendary status," Jenkins says.

Taking inspiration from those '86 concerts, Jenkins opens the show as Tom Petty, with backing band The Heartbreakers, and Healesville's Sarah Highgate as Stevie Nicks.

After the interval, there's a short solo as Dylan, before bringing the band and Stevie Nicks back out for the final set of rocking Dylan songs.

Audiences can re-live the incredible line up at True Confessions Revisited, and rock out to

Jeff Jenkins is back ... as Dylan and Petty.

Composite picture.183073 Picture by Rob Carew Running Down a Dream, American Girl, Don't Come Around Here No More, The Waiting, Refugee, Like a Rolling Stone, All Along the Watchtower, Hard Rain, Tombstone Blues, House of the Rising Sun and many other classic Dylan/ Petty hits.

Is it a tribute show? "Technically yes," Jenkins says. "But, it's unlike any tribute show you've been to, it's more of a stage show. We've done our research, we introduce each song with a story about how it was written, or what influences it, what was happening at the time; we put the songs into context.

"People love the anecdotes, they leave feeling they know more about Dylan or Tom Petty, which is great.

"We're celebrating these immensely talented artists and people are intrigued about what makes them tick and how they came to be so extraordinary.

Keeping it all ‘old school’

By Kath Gannaway Gulf Station, one of Victoria's most complete group of slab-constructed pioneer farm buildings, has remained unchanged in the hands of the Bell family for nearly 100 years.

It was a working farm that would have needed a lot of hands-on skills to keep it operating, and to keep the buildings maintained.

Today, under the stewardship of the National Trust, the farm is maintained by volunteers.

Maintaining the buildings, using traditional materials and tools, and the garden, recreating the cottage garden of the era, is a labour of love.

Team leader Mike Ridley has been working on the farm for 20 years, Peter Petherbridge even longer with a 35 year connection. Others such as Barry Roberts are relative newcomers and much-needed and welcomed 'new blood' learning new skills and making a great contribution to the future of Gulf Station.

The farm is a time-capsule of a past era the homestead and outbuildings including the barn, butcher shop, separator room, dairy, school house, slaughter house, shearing shed and stables tell a compelling story.

Rebuilding the post and rail fencing around the sheep yards is the focus at the moment, although ongoing general maintenance is always on the list.

Barry says it's the only place he can learn the skills. "I used to come up here as a kid and remember all the animals. I dropped in one day to see what was happening and signed up," he said.

He is typical of the volunteers the team is looking for. Someone who is keen to learn, and can also help out with some of the muscle work.Gardening enthusiasts are also on the 'must have' list.

While Gulf Station still has school and other groups come through, and one or two open

Working in the sheep yards - Peter Petherbridge, Barry Roberts, Mike Ridley and Harvey Clarke. 183474 days each year, the hope the volunteers have is that it will once again become part of a broader tourism package for Yarra Glen.

"We're working with the Trust and Yarra Ranges Council to try to understand where this place fits in the future," he said.

"We are maintaining it, and we think it's being maintained pretty well. What I would like to know from the shire is where they see it, and we're starting those discussions.

"This area should have big pull for families" Mike adds.

"What we're looking forward to is talking with the shire about its potential when the railway comes through and how to hook into a broader visitor experience."

In the meantime, plans are afoot for an open day on 13 October, and the push for more volunteers is ongoing.Anyone who would like to know more can contact Mike on 0418 322 969, or call in on any Thursday.

Don Macdonald is another new addition to the team. 183474

The finals race is well on

By Cameron Hutchison The race for the finals is certainly heating up.

Woori Yallock is now one game clear on top with Olinda, Upwey and Wandin fighting it out for second spot and Healesville just one game adrift in fifth.

Mount Evelyn is hot on their heels with 28 points.

Seville is one game clear from Yarra Glen with Yarra Junction just one win away in third.

The battle for fourth and fifth is being played out by Gembrook, Yea and Alexandra.

A-grade netball is tight with Olinda and Belgrave sharing the honours in top spot with Wandin ad Woori Yallock jostling for third.

There is a clear break for fifth between Monbulk, Warburton and Mount Evelyn.

Kinglake has leap-frogged Yea and sits on top, with Seville and Yarra Junction still trying to sort out third spot, with Yarra Glen and Powelltown still in a battle for fifth.

Division 1 Seniors Football (Round 13) Mount Evelyn 17.19.121 d Belgrave 7.11.53 Mount Evelyn got off to a great start, kicking 5.3 to 3.1 in the first.

They piled on the goals in the second with 6.7 to 1.4 to have a very healthy lead of 47 points at half time.

Another five-goal quarter in the third and the lead was a massive 76 points.

The last quarter honours went to Belgrave who outscored Mount Evelyn by two points to take something out of the day.

Mount Evelyn best: A. Chalkley, J. Beamish, D. Kift, C. Urquhart, J. Barden, D. O’Connor (1 goal).

Belgrave best: L. Sproules, J. Marshall, C. Rak, T. Stubley, J. Brown (1 goal), B. Raaymakers (1 goal).

Wandin 11.9.75 d Healesville 8.7.55 The first quarter was tight with Healesville having a four-point advantage.

They kicked 3.3 to two goals to have the lead by 13 points at half time.

Wandin put on the burners in the third and kicked 6.3 to 1.1 to be in control with a 19-point lead going into the last.

The last quarter was goal-for-goal.

Wandin best: P. Bruzzese (1 goal), R. Heasley, B. Harvey, P. Hodgett (3 goals), C. Johnston (2 goals), T. Hinds.

Healesville best: L. Daly, D. Senior, L. Barclay, S. Donkin, D. Iacuone, B. Murphy.

Warburton Millgrove 14.12.96 d Monbulk 13.14.92 Warburton Millgrove celebrated Mick Walker’s 400th game.

The Burras got the early advantage and led by six points at quarter time.

They kicked away in the second with 4.4 to 1.4 to go into the half time break quietly confident.

Monbulk bounced back in the third kicking 5.2 to 4.4 to be only adrift by six points at the last change.

Monbulk threw everything at Warburton in the last and won the last quarter by two points.

Warburton Millgrove best: T. McKenzie (2 goals), L. Barnard (2 goals), A. White (5 goals), M. Walker, J. Walker, S. Andueza.

Monbulk best: P. Barge (3 goals), J. Major, N. Sargent (1 goal), J. Rak, A. Beck (4 goals), S. Williams (2 goals).

Upwey Tecoma 12.16.88 d Olinda Ferny Creek 8.10.58 The first quarter was goal for goal with Upwey leading by just one point at quarter time.

Upwey held Olinda to just one goal in the second while they kicked three to extend their lead to 13 points at the main break.

Upwey was wasteful in front of goal in the third but still managed to increase its lead to 21 points as the side turned for home.

Upwey had the last quarter in its control but the margin could have been greater with accuracy, with 3.5.

Upwey Tecoma best: L. Hughes, L. Van Mourik, D. Waters (7 goals), K. Grenda (1 goal), D. Devers, T. Holland.

Olinda Ferny Creek best: M. Hottes (1 goal), C. Eade, B. Currie, K. Currie, H. Greenall (1 goal), B. Cooling.

Old ‘Happy’ swings away

One last lap

By Jamie Strudley It was the end of an era for Georgia Laven and Camden Hewitson on Saturday 28 July as they competed in their last ever Little Athletics Championships event.

More than 1000 athletes from throughout Victoria descended upon Lake Dewar, near Myrniong, for the 2018 Little Athletics Victoria State Cross Country Championships.

Georgia has represented Yarra Ranges Athletics at every LAVIC championships since she started in under-8s, with the rare and enviable record of winning a medal at every championship.

Georgia ran a superb race on Saturday to finish a very close second place and secure her 24th and final LAVIC individual state medal.

Camden continued his outstanding form from the Athletics Victoria season with his best ever LAVIC championship placing, finishing an outstanding eighth in a very competitive field.

The club had three other medalists on the day, with Zoe Clarke (under-9 girls), Kiara Fla-

vel (under-12 girls) and Maddie Laven (under-13 girls) comfortably winning their respective age groups.

By Ken Barratt

Valley women draw with Maroondah

By Andrew Woolley A wonderfully sunny winter day saw some good football played at the Yarra Valley Soccer Club.

The juniors kicked the day off with the under-13s playing Knox.

A lop-sided score line not a fair reflection on the quality of the game.

A fantastic second half display resulted in the Valley's only goal, with Riley scoring a penalty.

The under-11s had a fantastic game but were just unable to find the back of the net.

A good Monbulk side was able to finish their chances and nabbed the three points in front of the young Valley stars.

The women's team played away against Maroondah and nabbed a 1-1 draw.

The girls had the majority of the game and looked to run away with it but were unable to put a few more goals on the board to take all three points.

With a forfeit for the senior men's, the reserves were the only senior game Valley had at home this week.

A 3-3 score line meant the supporters on the sideline were never bored.

Two goals to Finlay Kerridge and Josh Williemsen's first ever goal for the club got Valley the point in a game it probably should have won.

The weather was cold but fine when Warburton Golf Club competitors took to the course on Wednesday 25 July for a stableford contest.

Ray ‘Happy’ Gilmour won with (11) 36 points and the runner-up was ’Smiling’ Stan Slusarek (21) 34 points.

Balls down to 31, and nearest to the pins were Tex Van der Kooi on the third and Ray Gilmour with his second shot on the first.

Play on Saturday 28 July included a special presentation to Bill Dunn, acknowledging his many years’ service to the club as he battles with illness.

The competition was four-man ambrose and the weather was beautiful.

There were a lot of good team scores in and a lot of “if we had have only got those couple of putts we would have won” overheard.

The winning team was Trevor MacNee (5) Barry Le Gassick (17) Paul Kennedy (12) and Lance Atwell (22), nett 54.125.

The runners-up were Dave Hatt (9) Sean Kennedy (9) Ian Kempton (14) and Wayne Kempton (18), nett 54.75.

Balls down to 55.875, and nearest to the pins were Alan Hubbard on the third, Liam Kay on the fifth, Sean Kennedy on the ninth, Paul ‘Snorkel’ Long on the 12th and Ray ‘Happy’ Gilmore on the 15th.

The women's team played away against Maroondah and nabbed a 1-1 draw.

Safety boost for Corolla

An active cruise control system headlines the new safety features. of the lane markings as well as the position of the vehicle ahead and then provides steering assistance to ensure the car stays centred in the lane.

It is designed to function on highways and freeways, but if the driver removes their hands from the steering wheel, they receive visual and audio warnings.

Across the range, the new Corolla hatch offers further standard safety technology in the form of an automatic high beam system for the headlights and a road sign assist (RSA) system that is designed to recognise speed limit signs and displays them on the multi information display in the instrument cluster.

Corolla SX and ZR models add a blind spot monitor (BSM) to the safety kit list with ZR also featuring head-up display.

For improved safety and convenience when reversing, the new Corolla also comes standard with a rear-view camera with guidelines while for passive safety and occupant protection, all models include a total of seven airbags.

The new Corolla has a pre-collision safety system.

1187559-RC24-15

The new Toyota Corolla hatch brings unprecedented levels of advanced safety technology to the small car class with active driver assistance and passive protection features.

Active cruise control, a pre-collision safety system, seven airbags, and reversing camera are all standard across the three-model Corolla hatch range.

Toyota Australia sales and marketing vicepresident Sean Hanley said the new generation model offered outstanding driver assistance technologies that significantly raised the safety bar.

"The all-new Corolla hatch is set to make its mark as one of the safest small cars in its class with many of its standard advanced safety technologies usually only found on luxury or higher-grade vehicles," he said.

"But along with its new-found stylish design and fun-to-drive attitude, we considered safety an absolute priority for the new Corolla hatch to ensure whatever market our customers are shopping in, they have the highest levels of protection and driver assistance possible."

Headlining the features is an active cruise control system that is standard across the entire three-model range of Corolla Ascent Sport, SX and ZR. Using a system of cameras and other sensors to maintain a set distance to the car in front, the driver is able to set a cruising speed of between 30km/h and 180km/h with the system operating at all speeds down to a complete stop for CVT-equipped models.

For the Ascent Sport fitted with the manual gearbox, the ACC operates at speeds above about 30km/h.

All new Corolla hatch models are also fitted with a suite of advanced safety features to help avoid collisions including an active pre-collision safety (PCS) system with autonomous emergency braking and pedestrian and cyclist detection.

If a potential collision is detected, the PCS system will initially employ a visual and audible warning, then brake assistance and if the driver fails to heed the warnings, full automatic braking to assist the driver to bring the car to a complete stop.

All Corolla hatch models also feature an advanced lane departure warning and support system with multiple functions.

If the car deviates from the lane unintentionally, the lane departure alert (LDA) will first issue an audible and visual warning before providing gentle steering assistance to encourage the driver to move back into the lane.

To help reduce the potential of fatiguerelated collisions, the system also includes a sway warning function that displays a warning prompting the driver to take a break if the system detects the car swerving due to driver inattention.

Corolla hatch models equipped with the CVT feature a lane trace assist (LTA) function that works when the ACC is activated.

The lane-centring function uses detection
