The way forward By KATH GANNAWAY A DRAFT planning document that will set out policy and guidelines for Yarra Ranges Council was given the go-ahead for public consultation at the 12 July council meeting. The Draft Localised Planning Statement (LPS) was initiated at the request of the State Government, aimed at identifying and protecting areas of Victoria that have highly significant geographic and physical features. Yarra Ranges was one of four areas identified for a bespoke set of policies and guidelines that Yarra Ranges Councillors said on Tuesday night had been a year in the development and was referred to as “a serious document” and “a critical position statement for future planning”. The draft document is the combined work of Yarra Ranges Council and the Community Reference Group (CRG) made up of community representatives from across the shire. CRG chairman, Rick Houlihan spoke briefly to the document, pointing out that the incorrect version had appeared in the agenda, and calling for the community consultation period to be extended to 60 days. An amended version of the draft LPS was presented to the meeting to be adopted as the correct version. The LPS looks at planning around a number of areas including activity centres, the Urban Growth Boundary, residential and green wedge policies, economic development, commercial activity in the green wedge, agriculture, tourism development, extractive industry, recreation and open space, environment, landscape and heri-
tage, community safety, community infrastructure, public works and forestry. It was forestry, and the wording that Council “Support a transition to sustainable forestry” that caused passionate debate, and ultimately a successful alternative recommendation. Cr Child called for the word ‘transition’ to be eliminated, arguing the existing forestry industry was sustainable and that the suggestion that a transition was required could raise doubt that Yarra Ranges Council recognised the industry as sustainable. He said the State Government recognised the forestry industry as legal and sustainable and said it was an important part of his O’Shannassy Ward, and of the shire. “To me the timber industry, whether on private land or public or crown land, is being planted and harvested in a sustainable manner,” Cr Child said. He said while he congratulated the CRG on the document, their input was only one part of the document. “I believe as councillors we do have the right to vet this document,” he said. Cr McAllister argued for the retention of ‘transition’ saying the process had taken a year to get to draft and it was the start of the next part of that process which was consultation. “I would rather we run with it as it sits and if the consultation process raises it as an issue, we deal with it,” she said. Crs Cox, Avery and Clarke also supported retaining the proposed wording, with Cr Cox saying that to get to the core of the matter would require defin-
ing ‘sustainable’. Cr Avery also questioned the definition of sustainable. “I have seen with my own eyes what the timber industry has done in the water catchments around Toolangi and I am appalled,” he said. “I am all for sustainable forestry, but when you see the havoc wreaked on some of the sensitive parts of our bushland, I can’t support this and think it should sit.” Councillors Maria McCarthy, Jason Callanan and Andy Witlox supported Cr Child. Cr McCarthy said she believed Yarra Ranges had a sustainable timber industry. “It would not be there if not supported by the government,” she said. “I believe what Cr Child has said and support his view.” Cr Callanan argued the industry was already working as a sustainable industry with a view to the future. “They won’t be around in 20 years’ time otherwise,” he said. “If they want to compete, want to survive, they have to find ways to become sustainable.” He said either wording was supporting a sustainable industry. With a four/four split, Cr Child’s amendment was carried on the casting vote of Mayor Callanan. The proposal to extend the consultation period to 60 days was also not supported.

Nod after four long years By JESSE GRAHAM THE developer of Healesville’s former sawmill site has said large-scale developments should be decided by independent panels instead of councils, with a permit set to be approved after four years. After four years of back-and-forth between developers, Yarra Ranges Council and the Victorian and Civil Administrative Tribunal (VCAT), a multi-million dollar development for the 17-25 Maroondah Highway site in Healesville has been given the goahead. The application, which will see an epicurean centre, lodging rooms and a takeaway food restaurant built on the site, was given in-principle support at
a council meeting on 14 June, ahead of a VCAT mediation between the parties on 24 June. Developer Joseph Alesci said the matter had since been resolved, and expected a permit to be issued “within the next week or two”. Speaking to the Mail last week, Mr Alesci said he was pleased the matter didn’t return to a full VCAT hearing for a second time, “wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars”. “It’s not good for the economy, it’s not good for the applicant, to a certain extent it’s not good for the community, because they don’t know what the future holds,” he said. “In terms of this particular site, I’d welcome a case study on it, because I
think our planning system is too adversarial, too politicised and it doesn’t deliver fair and orderly planning outcomes - it’s not fair to anybody for a matter to take that long to resolve, and, certainly, the costs involved are prohibitive.” He said that, while he had “a lot of respect for the council”, he believed large-scale developments should be assessed by an independent, speciallyappointed panel - councils could then make submissions to the panel on behalf of their constituents. “I’m not saying that councillors aren’t doing their jobs right, I just feel that they’re in a difficult position when an application becomes politicised,” he said.
However, Mr Alesci said that, through the discussions around the site, he had talked to neighbours to the site and opponents about their concerns, many of which were addressed with a final change to the plans to remove one takeaway food restaurant and address landscaping issues at the street front. “I’ve certainly gotten to know the neighbours a lot better - I had a lot of time for them and I can say that their concerns were always genuine,” he said. “I think that relationship will be one that we will certainly strive to preserve." Yarra Ranges’ director of Social and Economic Development Ali Wastie said that council played a “vital
role“ in assessing developments “of a variety of scales“. “However, a balancing of social, economic, natural and built environmental considerations is required when assessing major developments," she said. “The notifciation of applicants and the ability for the community to make submissions is one of the strengths and core tenants of the planning system in Victoria. “Council supports the involvement of the community in being able to comment on large developments that may have a substantial impact on their area." Mr Alesci said he expected subdivision works to commence by the end of the year.

Threads that unite through 40 years By JESSE GRAHAM A LONG-running Healesville group marked its 500th meeting this month, gathering at the Badger Creek Hall on 2 July for cake, catching up and crafts. The Healesville Spinners and Weavers Group celebrated 500 meetings on 2 July at the hall, with about 30 past and present members visiting to reminisce and catch up on their crafts. Though about 15 members were present in the morning when the Mail stopped by, secretary Lesley Wilkinson said numbers grew once members
had finished voting in the Federal Election. She said the Spinners and Weavers had their first informal meeting at a private address in the early 1970s, and have met on the first Saturday of each month through to present day. “Healesville’s always had a lot of people with diverse interests, especially artistically, and I think, being the early '70s, it was sort of that time when people were getting back to earth ... as far as making your own clothes and growing things,” Ms Wilkinson said.
“The time was right.” A usual meeting will see members catch up with one another, run through formalities, have lunch together and then run a workshop on a new skill or technique. Ms Wilkinson said there were 28 current financial members of the group, and that she had been involved for about 11 years. Her favourite part of the group, she said, was the community that it created. “I’m not just there for the people,
but the people are what keep you coming back as well, and the sharing and the learning - the whole community, the sharing and the people,” she said. “We want to encourage people to learn in a comfortable environment, and we want them to come back again because they like it.” Anyone interested in signing up to the Healesville Spinners and Weavers Group can contact Ms Wilkinson on 0400 695 126 or visit www.facebook. com/healesvillespinnersandweaversgroup
A 16-YEAR-OLD Yarra Glen boy is recovering in hospital, after being injured by a falling tree on Mount Donna Buang and flown to hospital on Sunday afternoon. About 3.30pm on Sunday 17 July, a Ford Falcon was travelling towards Warburton on Mount Donna Buang Road, near the Rainforest Gallery, when a tree fell onto the car. Three of the four occupants of the vehicle were uninjured, and were able to get out of the car, but the 16-year-old boy was trapped on the rear driver’s side seat. Upper Yarra SES members attended the scene and cut the roof off the car to rescue the boy, who was then flown to The Alfred hospital in a serious but stable condition. SES Controller Steve Green said the boy had “quite a few injuries” from the incident, and that the car was destroyed from the damage. Warburton police Leading Senior Constable Tony Pagels said the incident was “horrific”, but said the boy was lucky to not have been killed by the tree.
No escape A DOREEN woman will face court after being tracked by police helicopter through Healesville and arrested earlier in the month. On Saturday 9 July, a 21-year-old Doreen woman was sighted driving through Diamond Creek with allegedly stolen plates on her car. Police on the Eyewatch - Yarra Ranges Police Service Area Facebook page said the woman tried to outrun police officers when they tried to pull her over, but the police Air Wing then tracked her until she dumped her car in Healesville. She was arrested there, had her vehicle impounded for 30 days, and will face charges of theft from a motor vehicle, drug and driving offences at Heidelberg Magistrates’ Court at a later date.

To desex or not to desex: quer y THE month of July is National Desexing Month, an ideal time to highlight the importance of desexing pet dogs and cats. Many people do not realise that cats can fall pregnant as early as five months of age and may have several litters per year, each producing five to 10 kittens. This quickly adds up to hundreds of cats born to one cat, with many not finding loving homes. While dogs are less productive, desexing is an effective way to prevent large numbers of unwanted animals that may ultimately end up abandoned. Desexing is a routine procedure performed by a vet and involves a pet

Fire plan plea to be heard By KATH GANNAWAY THE implications of the establishment of The State Fauna Reserve are still not widely known, according to The Yarra Waterways Group. The Reserve covers 51,000 hectares encompassing waterways from Healesville across the Yarra Valley and the Dandenong Ranges to as far as Sassafras and Emerald. The group was set up following the concerns that landowners with streamside access affected by the expansion of what is called the Yellingbo Conser-
vation Area were unaware of the potential effect on them and their use of crown and privately owned land. The Mail reported on 21 June that the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning had advised some landowners that licences over Crown land would end on 30 June. An initial meeting was attended by more than 60 people on 14 June and another on 23 June, attended by more than 100 people. The Yarra Waterways Group chairman Rick Houlihan said a show of hands at the 23 June meeting revealed
that many landowners remained unaware of what the groups saw as a number of problems associated with proposed changes. “We have had a minor victory in that the Department (DEWLP) has said it will extend the licences for another three months while sorting this out,� Mr Houlihan said. He said one of the main areas of concern was the potential for fire and the lack of a plan to deal with changes that could see new corridors of vegetation planted with no management plan. The group is calling on the State
Minister for Environment and Climate Change, Lily D’Ambrosio, to get involved. “The first thing we want is a fire management plan put over the entire 51,000 hectares - the whole corridor,� he said. “We want to see a fire break every two or three hundred metres where you can stop lineal fires, and we want some sort of ability within the treed reserves to manage weeds and feral pests.� He said they would also be calling for boundary changes along rivers to reflect landowners’ titles and not sim-
ply rely on computer-generated boundaries. “We want the ability where people disagree on a boundary that a survey is done and that people are not losing freehold land,� Mr Houlihan said. Among a number of other concerns the committee will put forward is government subsidised fencing and community, fire, business and farming representation on the state government appointed committee overseeing the implementation of the newly defined conservation area.
This Boomerang is coming back By JESSE GRAHAM A GRUYERE teenager is making a name for himself after joining more than 50 other footballers from around the country for an annual footy championship. Todd Garner, 15, was one of the young Indigenous teenagers chosen to play in the 2016 NAB AFL Under-16 Championships in Queensland earlier this month, as part of the Flying Boomerangs program. The program gathers young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men, aged 14-16, who then face off against the World Team - a team made up of upcoming multicultural AFL players. Todd was one of five Boomerangs members from Victoria, and captained the team, leading them to victory against the World Team.
He said the program saw him compete in regional trials, then appointed to a state team, before facing off against other teams in Townsville at the 2016 AFL National Diversity Championships, to be chosen for the final team. “It was grouse, it was awesome,� he said. Boomerangs members are chosen based on their school attendance, leadership skills and football abilities. Todd, who has played football in Wandin since his childhood, said that his brother competed as part of the Boomerangs two years ago, which led him to sign up for the program. He said that he hoped to continue playing football professionally and, though he was a Hawthorn supporter, he didn’t mind who he ended up playing for.

Healesville Guardian, 18 July 1936 The Hospital Perplexity IN the council chamber on Thursday night Cr Mowle, who might almost be said to have assumed the role of coroner on this occasion, conducted an exhaustive investigation into the state of health of the Healesville hospital proposal. He was constrained to record a finding that the scheme was looking pretty green around the gills and was unquestionably languishing from insufficient funds in the form of pounds, shillings and pence. In Case You Didn’t Know OCCASIONALLY - in the good old Healesville fashion - one hears some doubtless well-meaning remarks about the desirability of barbed wire and white paint at the sanctuary. Mr Eadie has informed us this week that barbed wire is an indispensible means of preventing the animals' escape. And its spiky protuberances afford sufficient discouragement to visitors who are disposed when admiring the exhibits to lean so heavily on the fence and would weigh down the fence to the ultimate joy of the fauna which is penned up. This seems quite a reasonable reason for the existence of so much of this crude and cruel material inside the reserve. Narbethong Progress Association THE Narbethong Tourist and Progress Association has elected these officers - President Mr H. Oxlee, Vice-President Mrs T. Lovett, Secretary Mr R. Fennessy. The credit
balance is to be spent on opening tourist tracks in the early spring. Upper Yarra Mail, 21 July 1994 Council Vote Saves Community House At its meeting on Tuesday 19 July Shire of Upper Yarra Councillors voted in favour of an immediate grant of $1000 to the Millgrove Community House to enable it to continue operating. President of the Millgrove Community Centre Committee Kylie Jones addressed the council. She sought funds to tide the house and function until the end of the council’s financial year.

Letters Green philosophy THE elections are over, but it’s still worthwhile to discuss philosophy, and to correct untruths. Mr Terry Draper responded to my earlier letter, essentially with two statements about the Greens: that this party is economically irresponsible, and that it would have Australia overrun by “queue-jumping illegal immigrants.” In my letter, I encouraged people to look up the policies of the various parties. Were Mr Draper to do so for the policies of the Greens, he’d need to apologise. The Greens have a responsible, fully costed economic policy, which has been found to be revenue-neutral by the Parliamentary Budget Office. However, there is a more important point. When you have destroyed nature, you can’t eat your money. We are now in the sixth extinction event of Earth, with an estimated 200 species going extinct every day. Climate change is only part of the cause of this. When humans have unravelled the web of life, we will fall through the hole. The major parties are acting as if we can go on indefinitely as we have. I support the Greens because they are the only political party that goes even partway toward striving for a future for my grandchildren. Second, I assume by “queue-jumping illegal immigrants” he means asylum seekers. They are not. When you are fleeing terror, torture, war, it is legal for you to seek asylum. Those poor boat people have broken no law. Rather, Australia’s governments since John Howard have broken international laws we are signatories to. When I was a child, there was similar prejudice against Greeks and Italians. I remember a man saying to an Australianborn boy with Greek parents: “I fought for this country, now you wogs are coming to take it over!” Yet, people of Mediterranean origins have fully become part of Australia, and we are richer for their presence. When Malcolm Fraser admitted Viet-
namese boat people, they faced similar prejudice. That’s all disappeared. Now, it’s Muslims. They are just people, and if allowed, will contribute in the same way, and enrich our culture too. The Greens propose admitting 50,000 asylum seekers a year, which is a drop in the bucket for our country. Tiny Holland has admitted 250,000. There are illegal immigrants to Australia. They come by plane, on tourist and student visas, then overstay. But the boat people Libs and Labor torture in offshore concentration camps are not among them. Dr Bob Rich, Healesville.

Yarra Valley’s Decision: LPG vs Natural Gas Do the math before deciding!
Your invitation to Warburton’s 2016 Massed People’s Choir and Orchestra.
• Natural gas providers charge a daily supply charge, when you multiply it by 365 days, it becomes a huge annual cost.
Theme
• Supply charges vary, with some national supplier tariffs starting from around $284 per year before any gas use, and this figure could be higher.
he Fruit of the Spirit
• The cost of converting gas appliances, according to Rinnai, is anywhere from $270 to $345 for EACH appliance.

Key to agribusiness deal Agricultural funded for one year. Its application this year called for an extension of the Partnering Agreement with the council and funding for two years and was successful in attracting $11,000 for 2016/17 and $8000 for 2017/18. The additional year aims to allow both Agribusiness and Yarra Ranges Council to plan for the future. Yarra Ranges councillors vot-
ing on the proposal to endorse a new draft partnering agreement and funding were presented with an agreement that included key principles and key performance indicators. Agribusiness Yarra Valley will be assessed on several objectives including its effectiveness in brokering information to agribusiness, cross promotion of activities and
issues and improving relationships and communication with industry sector groups. It will also be required to develop a sustainable financial model which includes looking for outside funding. Councillor Jim Child said the updated key performance indicators were an important part of the agreement.
Man of God’s a man of the people By KATH GANNAWAY PASTOR Rod Wilson is the first to admit that following in the footsteps of retired River Valley Church pastor Andy Bennett is a big ask. But, he’s up for it, and he is happy in the knowledge that he has strong building blocks on which to carry on the work of the church in the Millgrove community. The church is unique, he says, in that it was community driven. “When Andy was doing the chaplaincy at the primary school, he found a lot of kids were coming to school without food,” he explained. “The connection was built with the school families and they basically said ‘you start a church and we will come to it’, and they did.” Some of the program run from the River Valley Centre, a central meeting place in the heart of Millgrove, are the Careworks Emergency Relief Service, the Good Tucker community lunch and free bread on Tuesdays, counselling services, access to technology, a youth group, help with resumes and interview practice to activities such as a walking group, chronic illness support
and craft groups. Just a couple of months into the job, Pastor Rod’s aim is to continue to grow River Valley’s connection with the community, and its ability to build a stronger community. The strong foundation he is building on include the ‘church’ that’s not just a church. When River Valley reached the point where they wanted a church of their own, they looked at how they could fulfil the congregation need, and the needs of the wider community. The result was a hall in the school grounds which is church on Sunday and used by the school and other groups at other times. The headquarters is another inspired idea, according to Pastor Rod. “I think it was an absolutely visionary idea of the church having a community interface that is not a church building,” he said. “It’s a place where people, any people, can talk, chat, get help and be part of a supportive community,” he said.

YARRA Valley soldiers killed in the Somme Offensive 100 years ago will have their stories told in a series of memorial services to be held in the coming months, From Tuesday 19 July, memorial services will be held at war memorials in Lilydale, Montrose, Coldstream/Yering and Mooroolbark on the centenary of local soldiers’ deaths. Historian Anthony McAleer said the ceremonies were being held to mark the centenary of the Somme Offensive - “What has been described as the worst 24 hours in Australian history”. He said that Australian forces alone suffered more than 5000 casualties in one night during the Battle of Fromelles. “That’s more than the Boer War, Korean War and Vietnam put together,” Mr McAleer said. Mr McAleer said the decision to hold the services came about ahead of the centenary of Anzac Day last year, and was a way of telling the stories behind the names on each town’s memorial. “Going back 100 years ago, everybody who lived in those towns knew who those names were - but there’s no detail to them now,” he said. “What we wanted to do was recognise these fellows, commemorate them, but also to put more detail out there - when we do these ceremonies, we talk about some of them, read out a biography of them, what they did and where they came from.” He said the Lilydale and Mount Evelyn RSLs had already been holding ceremonies of soldiers who died earlier in World War I on the cen-
CONSULTATION about a potential new name for the Healesville and District Hospital has finished up, with Eastern Health deliberating on more than 100 suggestions from residents. Eastern Health collected 114 responses from community members, suggesting potential name changes for the hospital as part of its multi-million dollar redevelopment. Acting Chief of Clinical and Site Operations in Yarra Ranges, Paul Leyden said the idea came about after staff and community members expressed interest in re-thinking the name for the site. “The recently concluded surveys have provided Eastern Health with the opportunity to ask staff and the community what key concepts, ideas or words should be considered when naming the Healesville and District Hospital and Yarra Valley Community Health site,” Mr Leyden said. Submissions closed on Sunday, 10 July. He said Eastern Health was “consulting the community” as a result, though “no firm commitment” had been made to change the name of the site. “With the support of a company which has expertise in community engagement, Eastern Health will now carefully consider the feedback we have received,” Mr Leyden said.

Family members and descendants of the soldiers, along with school students, have been attending ceremonies thus far, he said. Mr McAleer said the large number of deaths in the Somme Offensive and its battles was “horrific”, and had an impact on the soldiers’ home-towns, like those in the valley. “You can imagine just how devastating that was for communities like ours, when suddenly this amount of people was just wiped out,” he said. The ceremonies will be held at 11am on the centenary of each soldier’s death at their town’s war memorial.

Take the TRIP to safety By KATH GANNAWAY DEBS and funerals - the two occasions you’re most likely to see young men dressed in dark suits. It’s one of the saddest things at the funeral of a young road crash victim all those young men in suits and joggers, young women in the little black dress having its first serious outing, or even sadder, kept just for such an occasion. Funerals are confronting, road death and injury are confronting, and, in part, the Teenage Road Information Program (TRIP) is confronting. The combined Yarra Valley emergency services - CFA, SES, Police and Ambulance - will present the fourth TRIP at Woori Yallock on Wednesday night, 3 August. The target audience is 16 to 25-yearolds and their parents. Hillcrest CFA Captain Fiona Burns said although TRIP was primarily aimed at changing teenage driving behaviour, most adults walked away reassessing their driving behaviour. “The program gives an in-depth insight into what happens to road crash victims and the aftermath from injuries and fatalities,” Capt Burns said. “It is designed to be a hard-hitting presentation by the very people who attend the crash scene and know firsthand the devastation caused.” The purpose is not to traumatise learner and P-plate drivers, but to give them a fighting chance on the roads as drivers and passengers, and to reinforce consequences. For some, the life-changing consequence comes through the courts when they are held accountable as the driver in a fatal or serious-injury car crash. Jule Syme is an Operations Officer with VicSES and a volunteer with Upper Yarra SES, part of a network of SES units that cover the Yarra Valley including Healesville, Lilydale and Wandin CFA Rescue. She said the ultimate aim was to lessen the impact of young people losing their lives, and suffering life-affecting injury on Yarra Valley roads. “We want them to be aware of the consequences from the decisions they make that could have everlasting effects on them and their families,” she said.
The TRIP is worth it - Don Tomkins (CFA), Jule Symes (SES), Bruce Argyle and Nicki Bosen (Community Banks), Olivia Howarth (Ambulance Picture: KATH GANNAWAY Victoria). 156884 “It’s not just about drink driving, taking drugs or speed; it’s also about that lapse of concentration when you take your eyes off the road for even a second or two. “You wouldn‘t drive up the road for 30 metres with your eyes closed people would say you’re just stupid, but effectively that’s what you’re doing when you reach over to change the radio station or look at a text.” CFA Region 13 Acting Operations manager, Don Tomkins, said it was about giving young people the information that would enable them to make informed decisions. He said while the fact that young
people were still over represented in fatal and serious injury crashes indicated some were not heeding the road safety messages; feedback on social media following previous TRIP presentations had indicated others had had their eyes opened and would change their behaviour. As in previous years, drivers will be invited to take a pledge to change aspects of their driving behaviour. There will also be the opportunity for people to test out ‘beer goggles’ which simulate the effect of alcohol on driving ability. Prizes of driver education courses sponsored by local Bendigo Commu-
nity Banks are also part of the night. Healesville and District Community Bank chairman Bruce Argyle said the Healesville branch was very pleased this year to be joining Woori Yallock, Warburton and Yarra Junction bank branches who had led the way in community bank support of the TRIP program. Mr Argyle said figures revealed that crashes caused by distractions from mobile devices had more than doubled over the past year and that young people were again disproportionately represented in crashes. Urging parents and young people from all ends of the Valley to make the
1234969-CB29-16
trip to Woori Yallock on 3 August, he said “There is no going back - lives are changed forever in a few seconds.” “The TRIP program can make a real difference and the Yarra Valley’s Community Banks are proud to be associated with it, in partnership with our amazing Emergency Services.” The 2016 Yarra Valley Teenage Road Information Program (TRIP) will be held at Heritage Funeral Homes in Healesville-Kooweerup Road, Woori Yallock, starting at 6.30pm for a 7pm start.

One for Dad By JESSE GRAHAM HEALESVILLE dads will have the opportunity to enjoy a cuppa with their kids on Saturday, 23 July, with the newly-formed dads' group meeting each month in town. The Healesville Dads' Group will be meeting at Beechworth Bakery from 9.30am on the Saturday, giving fathers the chance to sit down with their kids, enjoy a hot drink and talk to other dads in an informal setting. Group member Graeme Mawson said the group was the only one of its kind in the Yarra Ranges, and the July meeting
would be the group’s second. He said the first meeting, held on 25 June at Yarra Valley Refreshments, saw five fathers come along with their kids to meet each other. Mr Mawson said the group would be holding monthly meetings in cafes, and dads of children up to school age were welcome to come along and bring their babies. He said it would be a chance to “throw a frisbee in the park, hang out in the playground, meet other dads and make those connections”. “It’s about giving mums a break, and giving a chance for
dads to hang out with their children and other dads,” he said. “It’s really about how do we create networks.” He said that he hoped the group would inspire those in other areas of the Yarra Ranges to form their own dads' group. Dads registering on the Facebook event for the 23 July meet up would receive a voucher for a hot drink on the day. The Healesville Dads' Group meet up will run from 9.30am11am at Beechworth Bakery, 316 Maroondah Highway. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/healesvilledads.

Sarah Ward is passionate about her time volunteering with local disability support service, Interchange Outer East (IOE). Sarah grew up with Interchange Outer East. Right from the word ‘go’ she believed that people with disabilities are people with possibilities. At age 14, Sarah signed up as a volunteer with IOE’s recreation programs. She has never looked back, and since then has continued to be a regular volunteer supporting children and young people on camps and activities. As is the case with many volunteers, Sarah’s volunteering experience led her to paid work in different areas across the agency - 1:1 support work, program creation and coordination, employment as a senior support worker and recreation activity leader. All these positions helped her to fund her interests and pursue her passions in life. She has also continued to apply the many lessons she learnt as an IOE volunteer to everything she does. Now, at 25 years of age, running her own business in youth empowerment and continuing her work with IOE as part of the Yarra Junction based Activ8 team, Sarah reflects on how volunteering with IOE has influenced her career, her perceptions and general outlook on life. “Being an IOE volunteer really set me up for life. It helped me discover my passion for inclusion and for empowering people of all abilities to use their voices to speak up about issues that matter to them. My volunteering experience with IOE taught me about running programs and working with groups of diverse people and it definitely gave me an opportunity to develop my leadership skills. I’ve been able to use all these valuable skills in the running of the social enterprise for youth empowerment I have created, ‘The MISFIT Project’. Through the training I received as an IOE volunteer, I learnt so many skills that have been invaluable in my life so far. I learnt a huge amount about working with people of all ages, particularly with children. I’ve learnt the importance of patience and a sense of humour, about appreciating even the smallest of steps forward in life and about positive behavior support. I’ve learnt how to communicate by various means and on lots of different levels – verbally, by sign, or by communication aids. This has been a massive asset for someone like me who works in, and uses, theatre as a means to aid communication. Volunteering has really helped me develop into the person I am now. Before I started volunteering, I was nervous, shy and struggling with depression. Volunteering gave me a sense of purpose, which in turn gave me confidence and did wonders to boost my selfesteem. It helped me understand the importance of empowering young people, which is what I have built my life around. The opportunities I have had over the years are impossible to sum up. I’ve travelled to places in Victoria, Australia and the world that I may never have otherwise seen. I love that I get to do so many amazing things and have so much fun. I’ve seen people grow up and grown up next to them. I’ve met so many amazing people - participants, fellow volunteers and staff - who have inspired me, and become lifelong friends. Nothing beats the feeling you get the first time you connect with a child and see the smile on their face when they are given the opportunity to shine. I will always be passionate about the difference volunteering can make, it changed my life completely and for that I will be forever grateful. I am an IOE Volunteer and will keep volunteering whenever I can for the rest of my life.” For more information about becoming a volunteer with Interchange Outer East recreation programs, please contact Volunteer Coordinators Marcelo or Beck on 9758 5522 volunteers@ioe.org.au or check out the website www.ioe.org.au Sandra Leehy IOE Publicity

The need for local experience LOCAL businesses looking for a business adviser, accountant or bookkeeper - who is local, understands the local market and can easily meet on-site - need look no further than AJ Baird and Co at the Yarra Valley Business Centre. Based in Healesville, the accounting and advisory firm AJ Baird and Co has grown to more than 13 staff, including accountants and bookkeepers. Owner Andrew Baird says the business is focused on providing numerous services to small and medium business owners in and around the Yarra Valley. “Most of our clients come from the Yarra Valley and outer eastern suburbs, giving us a unique
understanding of the needs of local business,� he said. “This focus has given us specialist expertise in a range of local industries such as food, wine and beer production, as well as hospitality and retail.� Andrew said it was also critical to offer the region’s local businesses the newest accounting tools and methods. Andrew said that cloud accounting was really growing and it was an area where AJ Baird and Co had specialist expertise. “We’re seeing a huge number of clients move their accounting to Xero, MYOB online and even J-Curve, and this is delivering huge benefits for
business operators,� he said. “The latest software is significantly reducing the time needed for data entry, making it easier to keep your financial information up to date.� Using these latest technologies, Andrew and his team partner help their clients to support better business decision-making that is based on real-time information about the business. “Accurate information is without doubt the key to success in business, and AJ Baird and Co is helping put up-to-date financial information in the hands of its clients every day,� Andrew said. And while the trend is towards supporting businesses, with new and innovative technolo-

“I irst contacted Bell Real Estate Samantha Price online on a Friday night, I originally was going to ring a few different agents but after half an hour of talking with Sam I was convinced Samantha Price from Bell real estate was the agent for me. I certainly wasn’t disappointed, she was professional and honest all the way through, I can’t praise her enough, she assisted me with contractors to get the house ready and the house sold quickly and for a great price.” Mark S
“I deliberately chose David because of his candid yet tactful style of communication. He works just as hard for a Vendor as a for a purchaser, assuring that both parties are satisied with the result if any. I could not recommend his ethics highly enough.”
“A huge thank you for all your hard work and patience during the entire process of the purchase of our dream home. You went above and beyond and handled everything with professionalism and ease. It was an absolute pleasure and what began as a business deal turned into a friendship. Thank you”
“I bought my very irst home through Rebecca and she was fantastic - being new to the home buying process, I found it a bit overwhelming, and Rebecca was very professional, supportive and helpful.

Discreetly positioned, this 3 year old home provides the ultimate sanctuary from a madding world that’s determined to consume us. Colorbond, Polished concrete floors, extensive double glazing and a minimalist palette not only cohabit, but are in unison providing year round use and year round comfort.

Meet the cast of Banjo at Warburton Arts Centre. 156841
Banjo’s back VERY few Australians wouldn’t have heard of Banjo Paterson, - the man who wrote the song that’s often regarded as an unofficial national anthem Waltzing Matilda. But there’s a back story to the life of one of Australia’s most acclaimed poets and, in The Man They Call The Banjo, audiences will get an insight into the century-old secret love story behind Australia’s favourite song. Set during the Great Shearer’s Strike, in a time and a place when Australia was as close as it has ever been to civil war,
the play is based on Dennis O’Keeffe’s ground-breaking research delving into the real history behind Waltzing Matilda. It’s an explosive tale of raw emotion, drama and historical significance that encompasses the angst between the shearers and the squatters, a forbidden romance, and the mystery surrounding the death of Australia’s most iconic figure - The Jolly Swagman. The Man They Call The Banjo is on at Warburton Arts Centre on Saturday, 23 July, for a one-off performance. Tickets can be booked on-
croydon
line at www.culturetracks.info, by phone at 1300 368 333 or in person at our venues.

Level 1, 3-5 Hewish Road, Croydon 9725 6544 www.croydoncinemas.com.au
YARRA Glen’s Festival of Light will be returning for a second year in a new location, with hundreds expected to fill McKenzie Reserve with lanterns next month. The festival - now in its second year - will be held at the reserve, from 5.30pm on Saturday 20 August, where visitors can join a procession of lanternholders around the park. Event organiser Beth Williams said that this year’s theme was magical creatures, and that attendees are encouraged to come as their favourite magical being. She said the event had moved after being held at the town’s lake near the IGA supermarket last year. “We had a bit of an epiphany, and we’ve decided that we’re going to do something different every year of the Festival of Light, so we keep an element of
surprise, so we invigorate a different area of town and explore a different idea,” Ms Williams said. She said Catfight Productions’ Adam Graf was the artistic director for the event, and that there was a secret part of the festival after the procession through the reserve. Food trucks and vendors will also be present on the night, filling the carpark near the Memorial Hall. In the lead-up to the event, a lantern making workshop will be held at the Memorial Hall, from 1pm to 4pm, on Saturday 30 July. Ms Williams said that more than 100 people attended last year’s workshop, with about 450 people attending the festival at the lake. “The thing that was lovely was that there were young and old, together side-by-side, creating lanterns and participating in a really great community way,”
she said. Materials for lanterns, and LED lights to be placed inside, will be provided, but Ms Williams encouraged people to bring extra materials for their lantern. For those making lanterns at home, she said glue was the key to stability. “What I found, in making them, is just the more glue the better, and it takes days and days to try, so you have to be really patient - and even while the drying process is happening, you can still apply more and more glue and push things together,” she said. “And don’t pop the balloon inside until it’s really, really stiff.” The event is being auspiced by the Yarra Glen and District Living and Learning Centre.

General Notices
Fox control Lake Eildon National Park, Rubicon State forest, Cathedral Range State Park, Marysville State forest, Yarra Ranges National Park and Toolangi State forest The Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) and Parks Victoria are committed to protecting and enhancing the natural values of parks, reserves and state forests across the state. Examples of this conservation management are the control of introduced plant and animal species which can impact on these values. As part of an ongoing strategy, the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning is laying buried baits containing sodium luroacetate (1080 poison) on public land for the control of foxes. Baiting commenced Monday, 18 January 2016 and will continue until Friday, 16 December 2016. Baits have been laid at strategic sites and other known areas of fox habitat within the above mentioned forests and parks, and within the vicinity of townships Eildon, Rubicon, Taggerty, Buxton, Marysville, Narbethong, Healesville, Warburton and Toolangi. 1080 poison signs have been posted throughout the baited areas and members of the public who are living, visiting or working in the above named areas are advised to take particular care not to disturb or interfere with bait stations. Domestic dogs and cats are particularly susceptible to 1080 poison and should be under effective control, muzzled or kept away from the poisoned areas. Further details may be obtained by contacting Emily Steer at the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning at Alexandra on (03) 5772 0200. www.delwp.vic.gov.au Customer Service Centre 136 186 1234975-CB29-16 ZO680553

DISCRIMINATION IN ADVERTISING IS UNLAWFUL
Real Estate

Ladies on the straight track By KATH GANNAWAY HEALESVILLE Greyhound Association is good at firsts. Apart from all the obvious ‘firsts’ on the track, Healesville’s straight track was the first in Australia. On Sunday 17 July, Healesville made history again hosting the first official celebration of women in the sport. Presented by Greyhound Racing Victoria, ‘Women on Track’ brought together nearly 100 female participants in the sport, including track managers, trainers, handlers, a panel of industry speakers and guest speaker, and guest caller, Australia’s only female race caller, Victoria Shaw. In a dining room decked out in pink and with champagne and a hightea menu on offer, Ms Shaw and other speakers gave recognition to the significant role women play in a sport that is facing huge challenges. Ms Shaw said the depth and breadth of female talent in the industry was not widely known. “There are over 1200 women registered by GRV to train and those licences are not handed out lightly,” she said. “That’s a huge number, and I think that speaks volumes about women’s affinity with the sport and the opportunities there are within the sport,” Ms Shaw said. As a part-time caller in the horse racing industry, Ms Shaw said she was given her first opportunity to call the greyhounds at Sandown last year. It was a learning experience at Sandown, and having since called at Healesville, she says the straight track is even more challenging. “The skill-set you get out of calling greyhounds is tremendous,” she said. “It’s so intense, such a brief moment in time, and the skills you acquire will serve you well in any code. “Whether it’s harness or gallops, what you pick up from the greyhounds in terms of response time, economy of words, honing quick reflexes, it really rounds you off as a caller.” Ms Shaw rates Healesville as the
most difficult track in Australia to call, but loves that it is unique. “For some dogs, they’ll enjoy running in the straight, others won’t, they like the corners. “It’s the opportunity to give your dog a point of difference,” she observes. For the caller, it’s a different point of difference. She said the dogs were basically running past the caller’s shoulder when they hit the finish line. In an industry that’s still a male domain, Ms Shaw said her ultimate ambition was to be a full-time caller. Throwing herself into every opportunity, as other women in the industry do, is part of the plan. She was full of praise for Healesville caller James van der Matt, saying he did fantastic calls on the day. “You can’t say you want to do this, and don’t want to do that, because the boys do it all,” she said. Her passion for horses, for race calling and for the role of women in the racing industry, is never far from the surface. She talks passionately and knowledgeably about the success of women in three codes last year. Kerryn Gath who was the first woman in the world to win the New Zealand Pacing Cup, an event she says is the biggest trotting event in the world, Michelle Payne whose success on Prince of Penzance in the Melbourne Cup did get international recognition, and Andrea Dailly whose win with Fernando Bale set the pace as the first greyhound in the world to win over $1million in any currency in stake earnings. Whether women can change the perception of greyhound racing in the public arena is not something Ms Shaw says she can comment on, but she does believe that there is more acceptance of women in the industry, greater opportunities across the board and a high level of women keen to take on the challenges and rewards of playing an active role. If the world is not yet fully across

Teamwork and tactics blows in WHAT a magnificent winter’s day. The wind was not a factor and the results relied purely on talent, teamwork, tactics and commitment. There were some close ones, with the finals race starting to tighten. Division 1 sees Wandin and Healesville now sharing top spot while Olinda, Woori Yallock and Upwey-Tecoma make up the five. Division 2 sees Yarra Glen one game clear of Kinglake, with Alexandra and Gembrook - with Seville - now back in fifth position. In A Grade netball, in Division 1, Wandin is two games clear while in Division 2, Seville and Yarra Glen share top spot. Division 1 Seniors Football Round 12 Warburton-Millgrove 14.20 (104) d Belgrave 10.9 (69) Warburton has kept its finals hopes alive with a good win over Belgrave. Warburton enjoyed a good start, kicking 4.3 to 2.2 in the first to take a handy lead. It would have been disappointed with kicking 1.10 to 2.4 to make no impact on their lead. The result could have been all over at half-time, if they were accurate. It managed to improve that kicking ratio in the third kicking 5.3 to 3.1 to increase the three quarter time lead to 27 points. A solid four-goal-to-three last quarter kept Warburton in front and gave it the much-needed four points. Warburton-Millgrove Best: P. Sharp, T. McKail (2), T. Marr, A. White (4), B. Winzer, L. Barnard. Belgrave Best: T. Stubley, D. Bilston, J. Molden (2), R. Matthews, P. Van Lambaart. Healesville 20.19 (139) d Monbulk 12.12 (84) Healesville has now put itself equal second on the ladder after a nine-goal final quarter. Both teams started with a tightly fought first quarter, both kicking three goals. Healesville took a slender lead of two points into the second quarter. It won the second quarter and increased its lead to 10 points at the main break. Monbulk outscored Healesville in the third kicking 3.5 to 2.5 and the lead was only six points at three-quarter time. Healesville got its second wind for the last and came out and ran away with the game, kicking 9.3 to 1.2. Monbulk just seemed to run out of legs in the last and could not match it with Healesville’s young brigade. Healesville Best: A. Davies (1), P. MacFarlane (4), S. Donkin, I. Vallejo, D. Plozza, N. Aldridge. Monbulk Best: D. Werts (1), J. Rak, H. Gordic, S. McBride (1), D. Ward (3), R. Gilbert. Mt Evelyn 22.18 (150) d Emerald 9.9 (63) Mt Evelyn notched up its fourth win for the season after a good fourquarter effort on Saturday. It still has a slim chance to get into the five but everything has to fall its way over the next six rounds. Emerald will now be in a rebuilding phase for season 2017 and will try and get as much out of the rest of the season. Mt Evelyn started quickly and never looked troubled by Emerald. Cam Carmody and Kane Jones were double trouble for Emerald and they were ably supported by six other goal-kickers. Mt Evelyn had a healthy lead of 37 points at half-time. A big eight-goal third quarter had the result well and truly sewn up. Mt Evelyn Best: C. Carmody (6), A. Chalkley (1), G. Gosland, K. Jones (5), R. Cowan (2), M. Sheehan.
Kinglake's Ben White attempts to clear the ball from the congestion. Emerald Best: L. Sheppard (2), M. Thomas, M. Steer, L. McKenna, J. Corcoran, C. Jacobson. Wandin 15.10 (100) d Olinda Ferny Creek 15.6 (96) This game was touted as a grand final preview and it did not disappoint. Scores were all tied up at quarter time and there were no obvious weaknesses from either side. Wandin got a slim lead of four points at half-time but certainly was not convincing. Olinda came out in the third and kicked six straight to 3.1 to take a lead of 13 points at the final break. It was game on. Could Olinda hold off the run of Wandin? Did Wandin have anything left in the tank? Olinda scored 2.3 in the last, but could not hold Wandin, which outscored them, kicking 5.2 and came away with a well-contested 4-point win. Wandin Best: D. Ladner (1), S. Dwyer (4), B. Chapman, J. Bayliss (1), H. Dudink, C. Foley. Olinda Ferny Creek Best: M. Hottes (2), O. Millwood, K. Currie, R. Wilson, D. Noorda, M. Mollica (4). Woori Yallock 15.17 (107) d Upwey Tecoma 6.10 (46) Woori Yallock has given itself a one-game break from Upwey which sits outright fifth on the ladder. Woori Yallock will now be eyeing off third spot for that all important second chance come finals. Woori Yallock took a six-point lead going into the second quarter. Ben Monkhorst and Jordy Williams continued on their form that earnt them a spot in the Vic Country Team the week before. A five-goal-to-two second quarter gave Woori a 24-point lead at halftime and it always looked like the Upwey Tigers were going to find it tough against the Woori Tigers. The third quarter was an even affair and Upwey just could not break through to make any inroads into the lead. Woori Yallock held Upwey goalless in the last and kicked away with a 4.6 quarter to come away with a muchneeded, convincing win in the end. Woori Yallock Best: C. Smedley, J. Williams (3), B. Monkhorst (4), D. Benson, L. Boontjes, M. Lowe. Upwey-Tecoma Best: T. Robinson (2), B. Hinton, L. O’Brien, S. Mitchell
(2), J. Hevern (1), S. Parkinson. Division 2 Seniors Football Gembrook-Cockatoo 15.10 (100) d Kinglake 14.15 (99) Gembrook had a heart-stopping win over Kinglake on Saturday to keep it equal second on the ladder and one game off top spot. Gembrook led all day kicking an impressive 6.1 to 3.3 in the first. Another 4.3 to 3.3 in the second gave Gembrook a handy 22-point lead going into the main break. Kinglake was plagued with indirect at the hosts, kicking 3.7 to 2.2 to reduce the lead to 11 points at three quarter time. Kinglake threw everything at Gembrook in the last and kicked 5.2 to 4.4 but just failed to get over the line. Gembrook was pushed but its defence managed to hang on to help secure the four points. Gembrook Cockatoo Best: D. Leversha (2), A. Shipp (1l), M. Maddison, L. Scott, P. Gramc (1), C. Clarke (1). Kinglake Best: A. Beales, A. Whelan (1), J. Crowe, M. Robertson (1), J. Butterworth, R. Mallison (1). Seville 37.29(251) d Thornton Eildon 5.1 (31) IT WAS a pretty tough day all round for Thornton on Saturday. It came up against a Seville team that had itself suffered two losses in the past two weeks and needed to get the win to keep it in touch with the final five. Seville was unforgiving and Nathan O’Keefe kicked an amazing 18 goals for the day. Thornton battled hard all day but Seville just never gave it a look in as it secured an impressive 220-point win. Seville Best: B. Penwill, R. Davis, N. O’Keefe (18), J. Bourke-Finn (1), M. Cecere (7), L. Scattergood (3). Thornton Eildon: Best players and goal-kickers not provided. Yarra Glen 16.15 (111) d Yarra Junction 13.13 (91) Yarra Junction took it up to ladder leaders Yarra Glen on Saturday. Yarra Glen got a very handy 27-point lead at quarter time, kicking 5.6 to 1.3. Junction had other ideas and came out and surprised Yarra Glen kicking 5.6 to 3.2 to reduce the half-time lead to 11 points. Yarra Junction came out in the third
much like the second and had more run and team effort than Yarra Glen and outscored it by 18 points and went into three quarter time with a seven-point lead. Yarra Glen played catch-up footy and looked slow. A final quarter effort led by Kyle Hudson and Jie Smith saw Yarra Glen lift in the last and kick 5.4 to 1.1 to come away with a hard-fought 20-point win. Yarra Glen Best: K. Hudson (1), J. Smith (6), J. Marks (1), A. Smith, B. Binion, L. Vanderstadt. Yarra Junction Best: M. Duke, F. D’Agostino, J. Black, E. Wadsworth, D. Lever (3), T. Hancock (2). Powelltown 12.14 (86) d Yea 11.15 (81) Powelltown was fighting to stay in touch with the five. Yea needed the win to put it potentially back in the five. After the win on Saturday, Powelltown is definitely within kicking distance with Yea now just one win clear. A very even first quarter with four goals apiece saw the hosts take the slimmest of leads heading into the second quarter. Powelltown turned it on in the second and kicked 4.2 to 1.5 to take a 14-point lead into half-time. Powelltown maintained its composure and only let Yea kick 3.2 to its 2.6. Both sides had trouble at stages getting the ball through the big sticks and the hosts paid for their inaccuracy in the last, kicking 3.4 to 2.4 with Powelltown hanging on to win by five points. Powelltown Best: P. Allen, M. McLaughlin (2), W. Dore, N. Moody, G. Newing (2), T. Hallmark. Yea Best: R. Aldous (1), H. Jarvie (1), J. Ryan, K. Giovannini, M. Ivill, B. Cunningham (4).

Three-peat of glor y for club By JAMIE STRUDLEY YARRA Ranges Athletics competed at the Knox Little Athletics Club cross country open day on Saturday— an opportunity to fine tune preparations for State Cross Country Championships next weekend. Also up for grabs was the Perpetual Open Day trophy for the champion club. A large turnout of club athletes and some exceptionally loud cheering saw the club retain the trophy for the third consecutive year. Some outstanding performances across all age groups from Under 6s to open / over age on the day were undoubt-
edly the result of support from fellow club members.

Warburton dries out, scores easier Wednesday 13 July Stableford: On a course that had dried out remarkably well, golfers found the going a little easier than in recent weeks. The daily winner was Rex Ryan with a neat 37 points. Runner up to him was Steuart Hawke with 32. The balls went down to 30. Nearest the Pin was won by Shaun Nicholl (12th) and Phil Garside on the 17th.
Saturday 16 July Stroke: Ralph Logan has found a rich vein of form in the past couple of weeks. After compiling 40 Stableford points last week to win the competition, he has outdone that this last Saturday by shooting 90 off the stick for a super-impressive nett 65. Of course, this blitzed the field because it was the best nett score on the day by three.
Runner up was Clint Smallman with nett 68; impressive enough to win, on most days! Well done to both Ralph and Clint. The balls went down to 72. Nearest the Pin winners on the day were the evergreen Allan Hubbard, who won two of them, on the third and ninth. Other winners were Shane Campbell (5th), Paul Long, (12th) and CHB, alias Craig Brown, on the ever-challenging 15th.

Motoring From vintage to luxury, there is something for all tastes. 156814
The vehicles come in all shapes and sizes. 156814
Just one of the rare cars on show at Motorclassica 2015. 156814
Classic event wheeled in Lorbek Luxury Cars. Celebrations will kick off on the Thursday evening of Motorclassica with the exclusive opening night party, at which Mercedes-Benz will launch its newest luxury car model. This year marks 130 years of Mercedes-Benz, a milestone that will be recognised with a curated display of more than 15 exceptionally rare and collectible vehicles. Mercedes-Benz will showcase a wide variety of models, from the 1896 Benz Velocipede - the world’s first production car - through the pre-war models, to the 300SLs of the 1950s and the highly desirable Ponton and Pagoda models of the modern era. Key to the display will be George
Hetrel’s stunning 540K, said to be Australia’s first “million dollar car” when imported into Melbourne in the 1980s, and now worth far more than that. BMW also celebrates a significant milestone at Motorclassica this year, reaching its centenary in 2016. To mark this occasion, joining the concours line-up will be a collection of BMWs ranging from the beautiful art deco-inspired 326, 327 and 328, through to several rare models from the '80s and '90s, including Jim Richards’ famous ATC-winning JPS-sponsored cars from 1985 and 1987. Motorclassica 2016 will also showcase displays honouring Rolls-Royce, Ducati, Carrozeria Touring Superleggera and 50 years of Mini Cooper’s
domination of Mount Panorama in the 1966 Bathurst 500 - the Gallaher 500 at the time. Of course it wouldn’t be Motorclassica without the annual Australian International Concours d’Elegance, and the 2016 event is no exception. As one of only two Australian events nominated in the prestigious International Historic Motoring Awards, the Australian International Concours d’Elegance brings extraordinary, rare, desirable and valuable collector cars and motorcycles from around Australia and the World in a three-day celebration of classic motoring. The Concours recognises the best of the best in a number of event categories, with a trophy that’s a highly coveted prize in the collector car and
motorcycle world. Motorclassica 2016 will kick off, as usual, with another unique aspect of this automotive extravaganza: Tour Classica. Tour Classica will see select Motorclassica exhibits drive in convoy through the streets of Melbourne’s CBD on Thursday morning (20 October) prior to taking up residence at the Royal Exhibition Building, a spectacular and unique start to this amazing event. Don’t miss out on the premier automotive event for 2016. For further information about Motorclassica, or to purchase tickets to this must-attend event, visit www.motorclassica.com.au. 1233219-LB28-16
AUSTRALIA’S premier automotive extravaganza for rare and exotic, historic, vintage, veteran, classic and collectable cars and motorcycles, Motorclassica, is set for an exciting seventh year. Motorclassica 2016 will be staged once again at Melbourne’s magnificent 19th century Royal Exhibition Building over the 21-23 October weekend, celebrating enthusiasm for all things automotive and the automotive lifestyle. The historic halls of Australia’s original parliament house will see hundreds of exquisite cars and motorcycles displayed, with an additional 200 or more vehicles on show each day in the ‘Club Sandwich’ car club displays alongside the main hall, supported by

Thefts on the rise
To make sure your Toyota continues to run its best, it’s essential to keep your scheduled services up to-date. Phone Glenn or Barry on
Phone 5962 4333
Car thefts have risen substantially in Victoria. 156809 to above $3000 and more than $3 million was paid to cover claims from RACV members. Mr Geraghty said most malicious damage resulted from vandals breaking into vehicles, smashing windows, keying or scratching and denting bonnets and car roofs. The Melbourne City Council registered the highest incidence of malicious damage with 71 claims, while Greater Geelong motorists suffered 88 vehicle thefts and topped the stolen car list. “Car thieves favoured the Nissan Skyline, the vehicle most frequently targeted by vandals was the Mazda CX-7,” he said.
“Many people wrongly assume night is the danger time for damage to be inflected and for cars to be stolen, but RACV claims data shows that car thieves are most active between 6am and midday, and vehicle vandals are mostly active during daylight. “However, they can strike at any time, and motorists should identify safe places to park at all times. “If you have to park on the street, do so in a well-lit, busy location. “It’s important that you take your valuables and accessories with you, make sure your windows are up and lock the vehicle.”

VICTORIAN car owners are being increasingly targeted by thieves and vandals, according to figures released by the Crime Statistics Agency and RACV Insurance. Victoria Police recorded 18,853 vehicle thefts in 2015, an increase of 13.5 per cent compared to the previous year. During the same period, RACV members made insurance claims worth more than $12 million for stolen cars. Thefts from motor vehicles also increased to more than 150 a day on average, with Victoria Police saying that 90 per cent of those offences were not solved. RACV Acting General Manager Insurance, Mark Geraghty, said the data highlighted the need for motorists to take steps to protect their cars against crime. “Don’t underestimate a thief’s determination,” he said. “More than five per cent of RACV vehicle theft claims last year involved the thief sealing car keys from inside a house before taking a vehicle. “Don’t leave your car keys in plain view - even inside your own home. “In some instances, keys were left in the ignition or elsewhere in a car in a locked garage, which makes it easy for a thief who has broken into the garage.” The cost of vehicle damage caused by vandals and thieves also rose in 2015. The average claim increased
