Woodlands Cr Pat Toohey accepts his MAV 10 year award at a gala function in Melbourne from MAV President Cr. Bill McArthur (Golden Plains Shire)
Decade of representation
MOORABOOL councillor Pat Toohey was honoured for his

ten-year service to the Moorabool community at a Municipal
Associations of Victoria function last Thursday.
Cr Toohey was one of 28 councillors to be recognised for
ten-years of service to their respective councils, with eight
receiving 15-year service awards, two awarded for 20-years
and five recognised for 30-years of service.

Cr Toohey said he became a councillor because he saw a

need to help to protect the rights of the people of Moorabool
when it came to fair planning outcomes, improved facilities
for all ages, and creating better infrastructure for future
generations.
He said the best thing about being a councillor was the
opportunity to bring about change and improvements for
the community and to help people work through and resolve

difficulties they have with all levels of government.
To have been given the trust by our community to serve for
10 years, and on two occasions to be mayor, has been a great
privilege, Cr Toohey said.

A birdie starts fire
BACCHUS Marsh West Golf Club was

on fire last Tuesday.
Club president Dean Cowan said
he heard a bang just before 2pm on
Tuesday, October 21 and when he
looked around he saw some smoke.
I went and had a look and there was a
grass fire near the 8th hole. A police car
was at a nearby intersection and they
came over and called it in, Mr Cowan

said.
It was in the rough on the boundary
between the pony club and the golf
club.
Bacchus Marsh CFA captain Nathan
Ractliffe said three CFA trucks attended
and contained the fire fairly quickly.
We suspect a magpie or another

bird has landed on the high voltage
powerlines which has caused the arc
and spark and ignited a grass fire, Mr
Ractliffe said.
An area of about one third of a hectare

was burnt and there was no property
damage and nobody was hurt.

He said he enjoyed opportunities to advocate to ministers and prime ministers

for Moorabools future needs
and to then see the results of
that advocacy reap positive
results and highlights of his
tenure included having the
first purpose built fire refuge
in Australia in Blackwood,
successful funding for com-
munity facilities across the

shire and a greatly improved
level of planning that was
a result of understanding
future infrastructure needs
with a quality team of staff

regards to State and Federal

funding, whether it be for
a walking track, upgraded
recreation reserve facilities
or a new bridge, Cr Toohey
said.
Considering we are one
of the fastest growing communities in Victoria, we can
never take our eye off the
needs for the future and it is
important that we maintain
a strong sense of ownership
and a clear direction for protection of our water resources and environment and a
strong agriculture sector
with enhanced opportunity
for export and job growth.
I would hope in five years
and beyond we are a strong
and united community well
represented in State and
Federal Parliament and well
on the way to providing improved job and educational
opportunities,
upgraded
community infrastructure
and a road and transport
network that will position
us as one of the best places
to live and raise a family in
Australia.
I believe the strong support I have had from the
many volunteers and hardworking people of our communities over the past 10
years has helped me become
an effective and strong advocate on their behalf.

Using water wisely
Water Week celebrations

have been marked by wins
for a preschool and a primary student from Bacchus
Marsh.
Lerderderg Preschool was
awarded a grant by Western
Water for a new rainwater
tank, while Bacchus Marsh
Primary School student
Charlie McKinnon won first
prize in the annual Water
Week poster competition.
The $999 grant was one of
14 grants handed out across
the region for tanks, school
and community gardens
and environmental projects,

totalling more than $16,000.
Charlie won first prize in
the prep category of the

poster on the theme Water there are more sources
than you think!
National
Water
Week,
which is in its 21st year, encourages communities to
take action to protect our vital water sources to meet the
needs of future generations.
Western Waters General
Manager, Customer and
Community
Relations,
Graham Holt, said we are

really pleased to be supporting these great school and
kinder projects for sustainable water use.
Mr Holt also congratulated
Charlie on her win, saying
her poster showed a great
understanding of the theme
and sense of colour.
The standard of entries in
the poster competition this
year was very high and its
great to see our primary
students learning about the
importance of water.

Rotating breakfast between schools
STUDENTS will start their day right

with a nourishing breakfast thanks to
a new School Breakfast Club at Bacchus
Marsh Secondary College and Bacchus
Marsh Primary School.
An initiative of the Rotary Club of Bacchus Marsh, the School Breakfast Club
began in early October at the secondary
college and last week at the primary
school.
Senior Constable Jim Ross was a strong
advocate for the program and said it
not only provided food for students
who otherwise would not eat breakfast,
it also provided an opportunity for students to interact with teachers, police
and Rotarians on an informal basis.
Bacchus Marsh Rotarian and founder

of the breakfast club, Alf Pearson, said:
The benefits to the students and the
community make this a worthy and
important Rotary project.
Rotarians, friends of Rotary and
teachers volunteer their time each
morning to provide a nourishing
breakfast of toast, raisin bread, cereal,
milo and even pancakes for the little
ones. In just a few short weeks 35-45
students attend the School Breakfast
Club each day. At the end of each term,
there will be special menu items to celebrate the achievements of the term,
Mr Pearson said.
This program would not have been
possible without the generous support

of Coles. Store manager Karl Eastlick
has committed to providing the food
for both Breakfast Clubs and this generosity is making a difference in our
community.
Breakfast Club at the Bacchus Marsh
Secondary College is offered every
Tuesday and Thursday from 8am to
8.30am during the school term, and
at the Bacchus Marsh Primary School
every Monday and Wednesday from
8am to 8.30am.

You may see or smell smoke from planned burning,

with some roads and parks likely to close.
Fire crews from Department of Environment and Primary Industries and Parks Victoria
are carrying out planned burns in public parks and forests. This work is part of a plan
to reduce bushfire risk to Victorian communities, property and the environment.
When we burn depends on the weather and plans can change at very short notice. For
the latest information visit www.depi.vic.gov.au/burnsmap to see planned burns on a
map or call the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667.
Fuel reduction on public land can only do so much communities and households
need to know how to be prepared and take action to reduce their bushfire risk.

Technology winners have the solution

By Kate Taylor
Two Bacchus Marsh companies have been recognised
with national awards for
excellence.
Rheology Solutions won
the Australian Technology Awards Manufacturing Technology of the Year
Award at this years event
in Sydney, while Calix Limited won the Water category
award.
Rheology Solutions won
the award for their online
rheometre, a device placed
in production pipes which
measures aspects of fluid
passing through them such
as viscosity and provides
the data in real-time so that
manufacturers can make
fast adjustments to the product when required.
Managing Director Pat
Griffin said the company
is currently exporting the
rheometers to the world and
has held some successful trials in Europe and the United
States having already sold
rheometers to companies in
the United States.
He said he was happy to
have won the award and
keeps the trophy on his desk.
It was pretty unique getting this big award, and there
were two companies from
Bacchus Marsh I thought
that was pretty good.
It was pretty competitive
- there were three hundred

and something companies
that entered the competition,
and we ended up being one
of the six award winners.
Rheology Solutions is planning to construct a new factory in Bacchus Marsh over
the next two years, with local employment opportunities expected to include up
to ten new jobs.
Phil Hodgson, Managing
Director and CEO of Calix
Limited explained that the
company won its award for
a water additive that is used
in sewerage and waste water
treatment which stops the
smell as well as stopping corrosion in sewerage systems.
In the space of six months
weve captured about 25 per
cent of the market so were
very happy about that.

He said that the companys
facility in Bacchus Marsh
employs eight people and is
capable of processing up to
60,000 tonnes of raw material input.
Its a fairly sizeable facility
weve been going about eight
or nine months now, since
before Christmas last year,
and were just coming up
to weekly production runs
now - were not at full capacity yet but were on our way.
Winning the award was
quite a coup and highlights the success that can be
earned in regional centres.
There were two award
winners
from
Bacchus
Marsh its the technology
capital of Australia now.

For our category there
were over two hundred entrants, from across Australia. To have won one of the
category awards was very
satisfying, the quality of the
competition was very good
this year.
I think weve got to celebrate Australian manufacturing, especially companies
operating in regional areas
doing pretty well - when you
get this sort of success you
really should be celebrating
I think. Its very good for
Australian technology, and
its really good for regional
manufacturing and employment opportunities.
A step up from
grass roots netball
By Kate Taylor
Local netball players may
have a new shot at making
the elite level of the sport
with the formation of a new
team.
The brand new Sovereigns
the Pride of Ballarat team
was officially established
earlier this year after Netball
Victoria granted a license to
the club.
Since formation, the club
has announced the appointments of former Australian Diamonds netballers
Natasha Chokljat and Eloise
Southby to coaching roles for
next years inaugural season,
with player trials underway.

Sovereigns chairman Bill
Mundy said the high-profile
coaches will benefit the team
in its infancy by attracting talented players from
across Victoria including
Moorabool.
Local players will have
the benefit of working with
coaches that have played at
the elite level and can bring
their experience and skills to
their benefit.
Certainly the opportunity
for local girls will exist in the
teams, our goal is to take the
best of the local talent and
develop it.

general public at large. This
is a community use area and
a public park. If we can get
competition grade courts
then there will be no excuse
not to play well because of
the facilities, rather it will be
the people hitting the ball,
Mr Ramsay said.
Currently people travel
out of town because there
is a lack of appropriate safe
infrastructure. In a growth
area like Moorabool its important to get the right infrastructure to provide for your
new communities. We can
see for ourselves that (the
courts) used-by-date is probably long gone.
Gordon PS students (L-R) Cameron Ferguson, Veronica McCarthy and Rory Cullen, were at the dilapidated courts to hear
the announcement of funding for two new courts from Cr. Pat Toohey, Mayor Paul Tatchell, Simon Ramsay (Member for
Western Vict) and Ben Taylor (Liberal Candidate). Photo Helen Tatchell
To get more than $60,000
from the State Government
is a good job for Simon Ramsay and Denis Napthine to
recognise the importance of
Gordon and the importance
of the Gordon community,
Cr Toohey said.
Its a fast growing community here and there are a lot
of young families.
The committee has worked
hard, Councils worked hard
and now we can say the gov-
ernments worked hard.

Two brand new courts in
Gordon is a start and we
have got more plans for this
park. We will be onto whichever candidate (Buninyong
electorate) gets in.
Member for Western Victoria, Simon Ramsay, said the

$61,750 commitment to the
project by the Napthine Coalition Government would
enable the vital construction
of two plexi-pave courts.
I congratulate the efforts of

the hard working volunteers
who have reactivated the
Committee of Management
at the Public Park to improve
the facilities for tennis and
broader use.
Mr Ramsay acknowledged
the Moorabool Shire for its
significant contribution of
$98,250, bringing the total
investment to $160,000. Its
a great investment in the
Gordon community.
MN02416G2
Gordon is preparing for a

tennis revival after the announcement of a $160,000
refurbishment of the Gordon
Public Park Tennis Courts.
Last Wednesday Moorabool
Shire and the State Government announced the joint
funding for two new competition tennis courts for
Gordon.
Moorabool Shire mayor
Paul Tatchell said it had
been awhile since the Gordon Tennis Courts had seen
any love.
Tennis is one of those
games where it doesnt matter if youre four-years-old or
90-years-old, you have the
capacity to come and play,
Cr Tatchell said.
In a fast growing region
like Moorabool it gives our
children an opportunity
to take on something they
can play for the rest of their
lives. We all appreciate the
valuable contribution tennis
makes to country life.
Cr Pat Toohey said the Gordon Public Park was an essential part of Gordons life
and it was important that,
after a decade, the government had recognised the
facility needed an upgrade.

THE Lal Lal wind facility was described as fools

gold at a meeting last
Thursday at Lal Lal Hall.
Lal Lal Environment Association president and local
resident, John McMahon,
said the planned Lal Lal
Wind facility would potentially have more impact
on our area than any other
event since the Gold Rush.
Its like fools gold promising so much, yet delivering so little. Building large
turbines close to homes risks
far too much pain for too little gain, Mr McMahon said.
More than 160 people filled
the Lal Lal Hall to learn
about the latest in a long line
of developments regarding
the planned Lal Lal Wind
facility.
Mr McMahon said it was

an overwhelming response
from a community which for
more than seven years has
been fighting to balance the
rights of people living near
turbines with Governments
desire to roll the wind industry out across rural Victoria.
Were not against wind
turbines as such, but were
against putting them too
close to peoples homes.
There are more than 2000
people living within 5 kms
of the planned Lal Lal turbines alone, he said.
Attending the meeting was
National Party Member for
Western Victoria, David
OBrien, who commended
Nationals candidate Sonia
Smith on championing a
motion, which has since
become National Party policy, that the Environmental

Protection Agency be made
responsible for monitoring
wind turbine noise.
If, as the wind companies

say, their turbines meet current noise regulations, then
its only fair that the EPA is
empowered to check this.
This would then provide
neighbours with an avenue
for complaint should they
disagree, Mr McMahon
said.
In the Ballarat-Ararat area
alone, there are plans to
build 747 new turbines. Add
to this the 229 which already
exist, and we have a total of
976 turbines. This is literally
an industry out of control.

said many times that our scones with jam and cream are the
best in the Marsh! They go perfectly with a nice pot of tea or
our organic, fair trade coee.
A new summer lunch menu is now available and we use
premium, fresh ingredients. We have kept on some old
favourites such as the Lamb Souvlaki and Chicken Caesar
Wrap and we have added some new gourmet chicken
burgers, a steak sandwich and a BLT. Our all-day breakfast
menu has also just been updated with new additions of
pancakes and a vegetarian breakfast option.
Also back on the menu is fresh store made sushi and rice
paper rolls. We will also have freshly made salads through
the warmer months.
We still have our old fashioned lolly counter where the kids
love to choose their treats. Ice creams, slushies, iced coees,
iced chocolates and frappes are also very popular on those
hot days.
So, if you havent managed to pop in to sample our delicious
food and drink, why not organise a catch up with some

1. Set a day and time to organise each

section. Write down what you want
to achieve for that space. Decide
what tools you need, like garbage
bags, boxes, labels or storage racks.
Have everything you need ready
before the day. Keep your goals on
the fridge to stay motivated.
2. Stay Positive! Dont feel defeated if
the job seems too hard, every step
towards a clutter free house is a
great eort.
3. Start small and dont try tackling
everything at once. Start with one
area, like the kitchen, then move out
to the living areas and bedrooms.
Looking at one clutter-free space is
great motivation for getting stuck
into the other areas.
4. Reward yourself after each job.
Why not get something special for
the room youve nished, like new
lampshades or curtains.
5. Maintain your good work. Take
a photo of the decluttered space
so you remember how good it
feels. Designate half an hour each
weekend to maintaining the area.
Also, a good rule is when you buy
something new, you must throw
something out in its place.

Letters to the Editor

Email: news@themooraboolnews.com.au
Dear Editor,
Re: Energy Minister responds to Mining Lease
issue.
Following a letter I wrote
to Mining and Energy Minister, Russell Northe, asking
for clarification and community consultation on a new
Mt Egerton Mining Lease,
I have received a response
which I include.
I apologise for taking some
time to share the letter. I was
waiting for contact from a
senior Departmental Officer,
as promised in the letter so
that I could provide further
information but that contact
has still not happened.
In his response, Minister
Northe advised that he was
aware of concerns raised by
members of the community
about the applicant for the
Retention Licence RL2018
and of the applicants association with a former mining licence in the Mt Egerton
area.
The Minister advised, with
regard to the former licence,
that compliance issues relating to that mining operation
were resolved, following
directions being given by

1. Obligation to publish Des
the Mining Department and

that the mining licence was
thereafter surrendered.
The Minister further advised that a number of
matters will need to be
addressed before the current Retention Licence is
determined.
I am disappointed that,
in regard to the Ministers
response, there are no specific plans for community
consultation.
I advise that I was incorrect in the statement in my
letter to the Minister where
I wrote that the earlier Mt
Egerton mining operation
was closed down by the Department. As the letter from
the Minister notes, the licensee surrendered the licence.
I therefore retract that statement and apologise for misrepresenting the reason for
the closure of that mining
operation.

Dear Editor,
On behalf of Ronald Mc(1)
Donald House Charities
(RMHC), I would like to sincerely thank the Moorabool
(2)
Shire local community for
their support of McHappy
Day.
The event, which took
place at McDonalds restaurants across the country on
Saturday 18 October, has
broken the McHappy Day
record and raised
excess
2.inForm
of $3.2 million nationally.
To put this into perspective
- this equates to over 24,600
nights accommodation in
a Ronald McDonald House
for families with seriously ill
children.
The money raised will allow us to continue to offer
our programs and services
to seriously ill children and
families across the country.
These programs include
Ronald McDonald House,
Ronald McDonald Family Rooms and the Family
Retreat Program, to name a
few.
The funds collected on
McHappy Day will also help
us with some of our future
plans. In order to meet the
growing need from families,

Throw away society

costly to nature
Last week I shared a story.
This week I would like to
share some facts and figures.
The majority of the following facts are from What Has
Nature Ever Done for Us,
Tony Juniper (Profile Books,
England, 2013).
100 - Percentage of Human
support systems dependent
on nature.
One Third farmed soil
degraded since the mid-20th
century.
5.5 Billion additional
tonnes of carbon that could
be captured each year with
changed soil management.
$3.7 Trillion value of carbon capture services gained
by 2020 through halving the
deforestation rate.
70 Billion Euros annual
cost for nitrogen pollution in
Europe.
27% - Heads of global
companies who say loss of
natural diversity could cut
growth in their business.
$1 Trillion annual sales

dependent
on
animal
pollination.
$190 Billion annual services provided to farming
by animal pollinators.
Two Thirds Major crop
plants that rely on animal
pollination.
$34 Billion Costs associated with the loss of vultures
in India.
$310 Annual value per
hectare of pest control by
birds in a coffee plantation.
$1,500 Annual value per
hectare of pest control by
birds in a timber-producing
forest.
0.03 Per Cent the proportion of the worlds water that
is fresh rather than salty.
$274 Billion Contribution
to global GDP from fishing,
fish and processing and
sales.
$50 Billion extra value that
could be gained from well
managed fish stocks.
$16 Billion official subsidies spent in ways damaging to fish stocks.

$21 Trillion Annual economic value provided by the
oceans.
Over 50% - proportion of oxygen provided by plankton.
99% - proportion of planetary living space that is in
the sea.
$81 Billion Damage
caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
Another story - in Thailand
prawn farmers can make ten
times the countrys average
wage while total industry
revenue is nearly $1.5 billion.
Research carried out on this
industry in Thailand calculated that when all of the
economic benefits and costs
were taken into account, instead of providing economic
gain, the industry was found
to be generating a net economic loss to the world of
$262 million annually. The
costs that contributed to this

estimate were made up of
various kinds of ecological
damage including the loss of
fish spawning areas, carbon
dioxide released as the forests are cleared, water pollution and diminished coastal
protection.
$12 Million Health benefit of 10% more cycling in
Copenhagen.
105 Billion English Pounds
annual costs caused by mental illness in England.
Another story in a study

of people in Sheffield England the roaming range
(IE how much they roamed)
from great grandfather, to
grandfather, to mother to
the present day child great
grandfather 6 miles, grandfather 1 mile, mother half
mile and present day child
300 metres.
$6.6 Trillion annual global
environmental
damage
caused by human activities
(11% of world GDP).

$72 Billion annual amount
needed to avert mass extinction of animals and plants
(0.12% of world GDP).
More than Doubled forest
cover and per capita GDP in
Costa Rica since late 1980s.
In 1985 Costa Rica generated half its energy from renewables and half from fossil fuels. By 2010 it was 92%
renewables.
More than one million
birds and marine animals
die each year from consuming or becoming caught in
plastic and other debris.
And closer to home

thanks to Give a Folk! In
Australia, we throw out $8
billion worth of food and 1.9
million tonnes of packaging
every year.
Australians throw out 1 in
5 bags of groceries they buy.
Between 20-40% of fruit
and vegetables grown in
Australia are rejected for
cosmetic reasons before they

even reach the shops.
429,000 Recyclable plastic supermarket bags are
dumped in landfill in Australia every hour.
Whilst we throw out almost
half of whats grown, 2 million Australians dont have
enough to eat and are in
need of food aid.
40% of deceased turtles autopsied at the Moreton Bay
Research Station, University
of Queensland, have plastic
especially plastic bags in
their intestinal tract.
And finally, the USA has
four times the amount of
food on its supermarket
shelves than is needed.
What is your opinion?

September quarter prices in regional Victoria
Enzo Raimondo
CEO, REIV
Rising Melbourne house

prices have prompted many
first homebuyers and families on a budget to consider
the advantages of regional
Victoria.
While prices have increased
in some regional areas, particularly the major centres
and towns within close
commuting distance of
Melbourne, a number of affordable properties can be
found in regions that offer
quality services and lifestyle
attractions.
The latest REIV median
house price data for the
September quarter brought
good news for buyers looking outside of Melbourne.
The regional median house
price now stands at $324,000
around 50 per cent lower
than the current Melbourne
house price median which
makes purchasing a property well within the reach of
buyers on a tighter budget.
Capital growth figures for
the 12 months to September

30 also illustrate that despite
some fluctuations in the
market, property can deliver
a solid long term investment. Homes in regional
Victoria showed an overall
4.5 per cent increase in value
over the year, with growth
at more than 25 per cent in
some parts of the state.
Areas in particular that
experienced
exceptional
growth included the ColacOtway region (with 9.4 per
cent growth in the September quarter) and Wangaratta
(with a rise of 11.5 per cent in
the past three months).
Seasonality also plays a
strong factor in regional
sales, with the median house
price in the Alpine region
up 10.2 per cent in the September quarter coinciding
with the peak ski season
which also represents the
best time of year for sellers.
Areas with good local infrastructure continue to attract
regional buyers who seek

lifestyle opportunities in
well-serviced locations.
Both Benalla and the Indigo
region experienced smaller
growth of around three per

cent in the last quarter, but
grew by double digits in the
past 12 months indicating that Victorias regional
property market still offers

an affordable entry point
while delivering considerable returns over a sustained
period.

Ballan Tennis
The club saw four very close
games this week in Ballan
Junior tennis as Napoleons
had to unfortunately forfeit
against C5 in the fifth match.
B grade played Warrenheip
at Ballan where Lachlan
Conlan was up against his
old team. He was able to
have two good wins, with
Juulke Castelijn in their
doubles 6-2 and his singles
6-4. In the singles Lachlan
Furlong won 6-1,Juulke
Castelijn won 6-4 but Joel
Bertoncello was unable to
have a win going down 1-6.
But Ballan were able to take
out the win, 27-20.
C1 played against Buninyong where the four boys
had another successful win.
Nicholas Jennings and Ben
Davies first set was a good

battle ending up in a tie
breaker but they werent able
to get across the line losing
6-5. Mitchell Furlong and
Lachlan Owens had a fantastic game winning 6-0. Ballan
was able to win the next two
sets to give them an overall
winning score of 23-12.
C3 were up against Buninyong Red and they had an
even battle which had everyone on the edge of their
seats. Jessica Tabb won her
two sets with Kelsey Josephs
and Ethan Bertoncello. At
the end of play it was too
even to call, hence the end
result being a tied match at
18-18.
C4 played at Ballan against
Buninyong and it was a close
game all day. Rachel Young
had two wining matches
with William Grenoch and
Tully Bryan Wakeling. Both
teams won two sets but unfortunately Ballan just didnt
quite get the games this
week losing 18-22.

Premier League team played
Sebastopol on Saturday
at home with a win, important to the teams finals
aspirations.
Martin Sheas and Glenn
Sargents rinks got off to
good starts against their opposition but from the outset
Sebastopol held sway, going
to the tea break with a 12 shot
lead. Avenues teams were
fighting hard but struggled
to apply enough pressure
to turn the scoreboard their
way. After the break a more
desperate Avenue team were
able to fight back with Andrew Myers rink coming
back from a 10 shot early
deficit to take the 2 points 2219 and Glenn Sargents rink
assisted by a fine debut in
the top side by Glenn Davies
going on to win 32-16.
Martin Sheas rink after a
good start, and Sam Shannahans rink, both found the
oppositions hot form hard to
handle.
Towards the final few ends

all rinks continued to fight
hard and reduced the margin to under double figures.
A little luck over the final
few ends may have seen Avenue secure the overall win,
but on the day Sebastopol
deserved their 88-84 win.
Division 3 travelled to Central Wendouree hoping to
keep its unbeaten 2014/15
season intact.
Frank
Pomeroys
and
Charlie Grants rinks both
jumped out to early leads,
but the other two rinks were
up against it from the start.
At one stage Bill Hawkens
rink trailed by 8 shots and
Gary Candys rink were
down 18-1, just before afternoon tea. As happens in
bowls, the game completely
changed after the break
with Frank Pomeroy and
Charlie Grant losing their
early domination, whilst Bill
Hawkens rink recovered
to storm home, picking up
5 shots on the last 2 ends to
record another last end
victory by 3 shots. Frank
Pomeroys rink grimly held
on to record a 2 shot win,
whilst Charlie Grants rink
lost 7 shots on the last 3 ends
to go down by 3 shots.
Gary Candys rink remarkably recovered from their

Athletes competed in the Club

Relay Challenge last weekend
at Masons Lane. Athletes made
up teams in the Junior, Intermediate and Senior age groups
to compete against teams from
each of the four Clubs Blues,
Boomerangs, Dolphins and Eagles. The aim of the day was to
ensure that athletes became familiar with participating as part
of a team and correct relay techniques.
Spectators witnessed
many close finishes, while one of
the highlights of the day was the
competitive spirit shown in the
parent races.
This Saturday the Centre will
return to their regular programs
with program 4 scheduled for
the meet.

rink (25-19) Avenue was able
to seal a 28 shot win over

player rotation, Avenue had
to back up last weeks performance to prove it will be
a genuine finals contender.
Cherald Sinclair, in her first
weekend pennant game for
the year, scored a handsome
21 shot win, almost equalled
by Ron Millingtons rink (19
shots) and Peter Kays rink

(6 shots). Unfortunately new
Division 8 skip Bob Whitefield could not complete the
quadrella, going down by 8
shots. The win puts the side
3rd on the ladder but they
have yet to play the top 2
teams.
Final score - Avenue 127 def
Buninyong 87.5
In Midweek Pennant Avenues 2 sides are struggling
in their respective Divisions.
Division 1 went down to
City Oval by 47 shots with
only Glenys Kays rink being successful on the day.
In the 4 rounds so far, the
sides have only managed 1
win, but remain positive of
a turnaround in the remaining 14 games.
Final scores- Avenue 56 lt
City Oval 103
In Division 2, the newly
promoted side from last
year are also finding the going tough against stronger
opposition. Playing Daylesford the side managed an 8
shot win, thanks to Marlene
Kneebones 8 shot win and
Hazel Treloars 6 shot win.
Joan Wilsons rink just failed
to win losing by 6 shots.
Final score - Avenue 75 def

Ballan Road
a winner for
Conroy
Octogenarian Daylesford
trainer Bob Conroy has been
running hot of late and six
year old Modern Art/Curry
An Rice gelding Ballan Road
was successful at the Maryborough Restricted meeting on Monday October 20,
taking out the Red Samurai
Trotters Mobile for TR1 &
TR2 class over 2190 metres
much to the delight of owner/breeder Charlie Osborne.
Driven by daughter AnneMaree, Ballan Road (gate
five) was trapped outside
Drop Of Paradise (gate two),
before receiving cover at
the expense of Atego Turbo
which was sent forward by
Greg Sugars to shadow the
leader.
Easing three wide in the
last lap, Ballan Road in a
slugging finish prevailed by
a head over John Murphys
Tommy Kay with Drop Of
Paradise holding down
third.
The Conroy stable was

again a winner at Bendigo
on Saturday, when 9-Y-0
Band Of Chips/Red Buttons gelding Button Brigade
chalked up his 10th victory
in 118 race appearances by
taking out the Bendigo Tafe
Trotters Handicap for T1 or
better class over 2150 metres.
Driven by Glenn, Button
Brigade gained the upper
hand as the winning post
loomed, defying all challengers to score by 2.5 metres from Redy To Race with
Gidah holding down third.
Hopetoun Park trainer Kylie Sugars would have been

elated when much travelled
six year old It Is I/Monaloo gelding Lord Monaloo
scored a first up victory for
the stable at Geelong trots on
Tuesday, winning the Devcon Properties Pace for C6 &
C7 class over 2100 metres.
Driven by brother Greg,
Lord Monaloo in a strong
performance
outstayed
Isabelle Delacour to score by
3.1 metres in a rate of 1-59.1,
with Astronaut 2.3 metres
away in third place.
Meltons Ian Hunter was

in the winners stall at Geelong, when five year old
Blissful Hall/Yora Special
Lombo gelding Ruben Hall
broke his maiden status at
Sport
start number 16 to salute the

judge in the Faggs Mitre 10
North Geelong Pace for C0
class over 1609 metres with
John Justice in the sulky.
Cranbourne is usually a
happy hunting ground for
the Melton area and at the
Sunday fixture on October 19
Looka A Moral (Steve Zammit & Rod Petroff), Christian
Torado (Craig Demmler &
Jodi Quinlan) and Shes A

were all victorious.
Dunnstowns David Murphy rarely misses a Terang

cracked it for another win
when successful in the Mortlake Veterinary Clinic Pace
for C1 class over 2180 metres
there on Wednesday.

Kilmore Cup
By Len Baker
It was the 51st running of

the time honoured (Group
2) Kilmore Pacing Cup on
Sunday October 26, a M0 or
better Discretionary Handicap event over 3050 metres,
with Guaranteed repeating
his Swan Hill Cup victory a
week earlier.
The race favourite Guaranteed was safely away from
inside the second line to possie mid-field in the running
line.
With no changes being
made until the approach to
the bell, Gavin Lang was
first to make a forward move
and comfortably park outside Maximan with a circuit
to travel.
When Maximan and Guaranteed turned together, it
appeared they had the race
to themselves, however the
testing journey started to
tell, with Maximan the first

to crack and Flaming Flutter
and Im Corzin Terror emerging to give chase.
Defying all challengers like
the champion he is, Guaranteed had a half neck to spare
on the wire over Im Corzin
Terror, with Flaming Flutter a further half neck away
third in a new track record
time of 3.55.5, returning a
mile rate of 2-00.3 (last half
66.3 quarter 28.3) obliterating Sting Lika Bees 2007 rate

of 2-01.1.
Raced by Rochesters Mark
Thompson in partnership
with Pasco Keep, Guaranteed a five year old Artsplace/Jadah Rose entire has
now greeted the judge 23
times from only 33 outings
and in doing so, has banked
connections stakes in excess
of $640,000.

Darley Cricket Club

The Seniors concluded their
Round 2 matches against
Napoleons-Sebastopol with
the first and third elevens
playing at home.
The 1st XI were looking
for their first win of the
season with a chase of 247
at Darley Park, but were
unable to establish any decent partnerships required
to bat out the day and get
the runs required, Darley
finishing up all out in the
58th over for 133. Leg spinner Brian Wheelahans 3-36
off 19 and Hayden Jamiesons two catches and a run
out in week one were the
highlights.
The 2nd XI claimed top
spot with a massive win,
and plenty of much needed
match batting practice in
their run chase of 177. Darley
finishing on 6/329 at stumps
on day two with notable
contributions from many
including opener Ben Longhurst who, at the time individual scores were available,
was on 56 not out.
The 3rd XI secured ten
premiership points with an
outright after starting day
two with a first innings win
already and a 36 run lead in
the bag. Napoleons-Sebastopol provided a sporting
declaration with a score of
7/163 at tea, giving Darley a gettable target of 128.
Darley made the runs with
BALLAN PLUMBING
six wickets and ten overs

to spare. Hamish Wheeler,
Drew Locke, and Jye Stephenson all starred with ball
in the second innings, each
getting two wickets, whilst
youngster Jack Watkins 38,
Trans-Tasman import Craig
McDonald 35, and Daniel
Kypreos 22* were instrumental in securing the outright win with the bat.
The 4th XI were facing the
other side of an outright result and were sent in to bat
at the start of the second
day with a deficit of 187
runs. Opener Darren Hynes
showed some spark and a
chance of Darley redemption, however there were
never any partnerships established, and Darley were
bowled out for just 109 and
still had 27 overs left in the
day.
This week the seniors take
on East Ballarat, with the 1st
XI and 3rd XI at home again
at Darley Park and Civic
Hub Oval respectively.
The Ballarat CA Juniors

also concluded Round 2,
whilst the Melton JCA Juniors kicked off Day 1 of
Round 2.
Under 16 Gold were hosting Wendouree on the turf
at Darley Park and were
defending 97 runs from Day
1. Wendouree looked comfortable at 3-63 in their run
chase, however the young
Lions took 4/19 to swing the
match back in their favour,
unfortunately it wasnt to be,
and Wendouree were still
seven wickets down when
they passed the target, and
were then bowled out for
Service & supplies of all plumbing needs

155 Inglis St, Ballan Phone: 5368 1036 Fax: 5368 1510 www.ballanplumbing.com.au
122. Joel Barnes 4/13 off 6

and Mitchell Ward 2/15 off
8 were brilliant with the ball.
Under 16 Blue were home to
North Ballarat at Civic Hub
Oval, and were chasing a
massive 275 within 50 overs.
Losing three early wickets
with just 3 runs on the board
didnt help, however Dimitri
Lambris set a great example
with 22 at first drop, and
then Jack Burgess stole the
show with a 50 in the middle
order to restore some pride
as Darley finished in the
34th over with 104 runs.
The Under 14s were in the
box seat with a split innings
total of 1/110 whilst Golden
Point were 2/41 in reply and
begun the second day batting first to end up on 9/126
after 50 overs. Zachary Pead
shone with the ball with
2/10 off 4 overs whilst Sebastian Falcone and Brandan
Foley each had two catches.
Opener Blake Colley retired
not out on 50 and Noah Simmons 18* were the standouts
with the bat.
The first Under 12 Darley
Derby of the season took
place on Friday night on turf
at Darley Park, in what will
be a very close match when
play resumes again this
Friday night. Darley Roar
will resume on 6/106 whilst
Darley Pride will resume on
3/99. Noah Simmons 28* and
Hayden Nash 25* were the
highlights for Darley Roar.
Darley Cubs will be looking
to consolidate an almost certain win when play resumes
this Friday at Mount Carberry, with the Cubs on 2/94
off 20 and Melton South 4/39
of their 20.
