2019 Justin Voumard Memorial Ride

On the 21st of June Max & Drew Voumard and Daniel Robinson hosted a fundraiser for the Apex Outback Postie Bike Ride. The fundraiser was held at the Jamestown Football/Netball Clubrooms with 150 people in attendance. The afternoon consisted of a silent auction with a generous amount of items donated by local businesses.This years ride will take part from the 8th - 11th of August and will be a memorial ride for Justin Voumard who passed away in December 2018. Justin was always heavily involved and very passionate about the ride and what it supported prior to his illness and passing. The ride is now in its 12th year and is hoping that this year’s combined fundraising campaign will allow them to reach a total of 1 million dollars over its history. The ride is 1000km over 4 days through the Flinders Rangers on “Postie Bikes” Honda CT 110, with little modifi cation! All the money raised goes towards the building and up-keep of the Apex Copper Coast Retreats at the Wallaroo North Beach Caravan Park. These units are lent out to families who are aff ected by cancer allowing them to stay for free of charge to escape the struggles that come with this disease, along with making precious memories together.As a result of their enrolment in the ride Max, Drew & Daniel were required to raise $500 each. Thanks to the generous donations and support from the local community they have been able to raise over $12,000 thus far. The boys and the Voumard family would like to say a huge thank you to all that attended or donated towards the fundraiser, along with the ongoing support that they have received from the community.

What is Probus? Probus is all about Fun, Friendship and Fellowship in semi-retirement and retirement.

What does Probus offer? Probus offers members the opportunity to meet with fellow retirees on a regular basis, listen to interesting speakers and join together in activities whilst enjoying interacting with new friends.

When & Where are Probus meetings held in Jamestown? Our meetings are held in the large function room at the Commercial Hotel on the 1st Tuesday of each month, commencing at 10am.

Visitors are always welcome. If you want more information please contact, Kaye Meaney (our President) on 8664 1304 or Brenda Villis (our Secretary) on 0429 942 001. They will be happy to help you.

At our July meeting Jo Vanstone who is a Team Leader at YourTown in Pt Pirie told us about the role that she plays as the Leader at Penrose House, which caters for young parents aged 14 to 25, along with their children aged 0 to 4 years.

Disadvantaged children all have a right to a future filled with hope and promise, thus Jo and her team strive to provide a brighter future for their clients.

Unfortunately childhood abuse, neglect and intergenerational impact of substance abuse need to be dealt with as these obstacles cause trauma to very young children, which affects their brain development and social judgement.

Her presentation was certainly enlightening and opened members eyes to the struggles that some children and young adults face regularly. Jo and her team are totally committed to supporting these young people and their families to develop a positive outlook and valuable life skills, which will enable them to have a brighter future. Below: Jo Vanstone with Kaye Meaney

Recently members of the Pt Broughton Probus Clubs, Lunch Club enjoyed a visit to the Commercial Hotel at Jamestown and kindly invited our members to join them for a meal. Occasions such as this are what Probus is about... making new friends and learning what other clubs do.

Our Probus member regularly enjoy trips to the Keith Michell Theatre in Pt Pirie and recently enjoyed a brilliant show there being entertained by Daniel Thompson as Johnny Cash & Rebecca Lee Hye as June Carter along with their fellow band of musicians.

In September we are off to Elizabeth Grove where Johnny Starr has a venue. Morning tea, the show and lunch will be on offer there, and if it is as good as what we received last visit, we are in for a great morning. On the way home we are visiting the Vadoulis Plant Nursery at Gawler which has plants, amazing homewares etc... and offers amazing coffee!! All in all, it will be a fabulous day out for our Probus members.

Our Jamestown Probus has lots to offer. Please come along and join us and meet new friends.

DIGGER’S WALKSignage on The Diggers’ Walk along Belalie Creek is nearing completion, in readiness for it’s centenary and official opening on New Years’ Eve.

JAMESTOWN SHOW’S NEW SHEARING

PAVILION GRANT SUCCESS

The Jamestown Show Committee have been successful in their

bid to win a grant of $150,000 from the Federal Foundation for

Rural and Regional Renewal to go towards a new Shearing Pavilion.

The six stand shed will be ready for this year’s Jamestown Show

and will be a great new venue to hold shearing competitions, with

the committee’s sites set high on obtaining a National Sports Shear

Final.

Private local woolgrowers put up $30,000 and shearer supplies

company Heiniger contributed $36,000 for a wool press, shearing

stands and tables.

Jamestown will soon the be a hub for shearing training through the

TAFE SA program with hopes of increasing employment locally in

the shearing and wool handling industry.

The builder is Redden Bros and the plans are well in place for

the commencement of this great new structure with building to

commence early August.

Congratulations go to the committee members in charge of

pursuing this grant opportunity. It proves again that Jamestown

is a vibrant can-do community, where nothing is impossible even

when you set your sights high.

Come and see the new pavilion in full swing with shearing

competitions at the Jamestown Show this October long weekend

from 2pm Sunday October 6th - Monday October 7th.

JAMESTOWN PROBUS

THE DIGGERS’ Walk

The history of patriotic volunteer work and organisations provides a great insight into the impact of war on the home-front in South Australia; and Australian Patriotic Funds were signi�cant in this capacity: providing support for soldiers and their families.

The Cheer-Up Society, established in November 1914, was a uniquely South Australian response to the war involving primarily women. Initially to support troops awaiting embarkation, they subsequently not only provided for the tangible needs and comforts of the troops on ‘the front’, but also provided on-going support to wounded and shell-shocked men; and to bereaved mothers and families.

The formation of a Cheer-Up Society in the Jamestown area, for the bene�t of the men leaving for the War and for those returning, proved very rewarding; with many social functions accompanying the occasions. However, it did meet with some disapproval of what was felt ‘unnecessary coddling’ of the soldiers.

Mrs Alexandrine Seger, one of the two founders of the Cheer-Up Society, also initiated Violet Day; to remember the soldiers who lost their lives, and to raise funds for the Cheer-Up Society. It became an annual event; and was supported in Jamestown and the surrounding areas.

One of the activities of the local Cheer-Up Society was to present each returning soldier with a gold honour medal, suitably inscribed, at a welcome home event. In the cases where a soldier paid the supreme sacri�ce, a memorial medal was presented to the next of kin. The medals were purchased from the Welcome Home Fund.

THE HOMEFRONTAVOLUNTEER ORGANISATIONS { PART 1 }The Cheer-Up Hut was also a uniquely South Australian concept. Established in 1915 by South Australia’s Cheer-Up Society, the huts were self-funded by fairs and badge days; and with donations from farmers and businesses. Over 80 Cheer-Up Huts were established around South Australia during the First World War, with the main Hut located where Adelaide’s Festival Centre now stands. Members met troop trains with refreshments and served free meals, also providing a place for returned servicemen to meet friends, play billiards and enjoy concerts.

In Jamestown and associated districts, through the ‘Cheer Up Society, Patriotic Fund, Trench Comforts Fund, Belgian Relief Fund, Wounded Soldiers’ Fund and other associations, many thousands of pounds were raised in cash and goods, to help the soldiers.

Local school children made �y-nets for horses in the Palestine campaign, contributing to the 50,000 that were made in South Australia. The students also contributed through the South Australian Children’s Patriotic Fund, by raising funds, selling sweets and badges, collecting old tins and newspapers, knitting socks and constructing Christmas Boxes to send to the troops.

- August 2019

On Friday 26th July over 145 students from South Australia

participated in the Animal Handling & Education day organised

by Daniel Ferne and family from Gum View Charolais. and

proudly supported by the Jamestown Show.

This event has now been running for 3 years and this year was the

first time that Sheep and Wool were introcuced to the program.

Industry experts from across the Mid North donated their

support towards the education day. Richard Daley from Moyle

Park Red Poll Stud, Jamestown, assisted with cattle judging

education, Dennis Dalla, Collinsville Stud Merinos, helped

educate students on wether competition and show preparation

of sheep, Alistair Keller gave tips on ram judging, Adrian Dewell

took students through commercial valuation of wool and

prepared the students for junior wool judging at shows, while

Ian Bradtke gave an insight into what to look for in commercial

classing of ewe hoggets.

Jamestown Agricultural and Horticultural Show society

president David Cooper and vice president Matt Scharkie said

it was exciting to see the level of interest shown by students at

the education day.

With every student at the education day given a ticket to the

upcoming Jamestown Show along with an information pack, the

committee hoped it would encourage some of the participants

to get involved in junior judging at the show.

“The main thing from our point of view is promoting our show

and get as many kids from across the north involved in our junior

judging,” Mr Cooper said. “I think it’s pretty positive to see so many

agriculture students here, it’s great for the future of agriculture

and for the future of agricultural shows.”

CHRISTMAS IN WINTER

The Christmas in Winter lunch was a pleasant and successful fundraiser. People enjoy the company of friends and make strangers welcome. Many people have attended for many years. That prompted the question, “When was the first lunch held?” If you know the answer, please tell us.

So many groups and community members assist that it would be unwise to attempt to name them. The Anglican, Catholic, Lutheran and Uniting churches provide and serve the delicious meal. Thoughtful people arrange the decorations, setting up the tables, firewood, ticket sales, music, posters and tickets. People spontaneously help out at the meal, clearing dishes from tables. Thank you for creating a positive atmosphere.

Erin Booth, Pastoral Care Worker at Jamestown Community School, spoke about her work. Money raised will support her activities. This year’s lunch was the first time that all tickets were pre-sold. That made the planning so much easier. We are grateful to the community for their loyal support.

Jamestown & District RFDS

Support GroupThe Group have been busy in the last month with the “Meal Drop”. On June 21st, we prepared and delivered almost 200 pre ordered meals around the town (and 18 to Crystal Brook ). At the end of the day, we raised just over $4000 for the RFDS, a fantastic effort thanks to the generous support we receive from the Jamestown Community. Special thanks must go to the Jamestown Peterborough Football Netball Club for allowing us to use the Jamestown Clubrooms to prepare the meals, Jamestown Foodland for a generous food voucher, and O’Leary Butchers for the delicious meat. Thanks also go to anyone that helped by making food, preparing the meals at the Clubrooms, and of courser the Delivery Drivers ( I won’t name people as I’m bound to forget someone ). It was a fantastic effort overall, and just shows what amazing support we have from the entire Community, we are the envy of many other Groups.

The Committee is busy organising the RFDS Ball for May 2nd, 2020, so add that date to your diary, its bound to be a great night, and our major fundraiser for the year. Remember its only $10 to be a member of our group, just see Michelle at Shellies Shoes or Liz Kelly - 0428641254. If you have had a positive experience with the RFDS and would like to share it please contact Liz Kelly and a series of questions will be given to you to help write the article.

NEOEN SUPPORTS LOCAL HOSPITAL

The Neoen Windfarm company donated T-shirts so that the sale of them could benefit the current fundraising efforts for refurbishment of the Jamestown Hospital. To date $1000 has been raised and if any community person is interested in purchasing a T-shirt please contact Jenny on 0427 866448. Wearing one is a great way to show our community’s appreciation for the tremendous annual grant of $120,000 received from NEOEN towards the benefit of many organisations and renewable energy projects within our NA Council area. It also spreads the word of this area being the home of the World’s largest Lithium battery. This is an on-going amount for the full term of the wind farm operation.

at present. According to the 2016 census, the population here is Zero, but still 7 people are living here. Water is been transported to Mannahill in trucks. But still, as it is non-treated water, it is not drinkable.

On my first visit, I met a lovely lady - Betty Burford - who was in her 60’s. Betty happily spends her time to chat with me. After a few months, on my second visit, she was there, standing on a rusted ladder, in the middle of the clutter and trying to paint her room. Again, she took her time to sit and shared about her dreams to clear all the mess around, then to paint the house, fix a few things and build a ramp for the easy access to her sick husband. But by looking around, it seems like a lot of work. I was wondering, even if I offer help whether she is ready to accept? But I was sure; it’s a lot of work which she can’t do by herself. And I know in a town like this, it’s not easy for them to get paid workers. Even if they do, it’s too much for them to afford.

Finally, after lots of discussions and thoughts with my friends around and from the city churches, we decided to go ahead with this project. One week before, when I arrived at the house with a full trailer of materials, tools and supplies for 15 volunteers for a week, only then, Betty was able to believe, finally this is going to happen.

It was really a full week for my city friends who stayed at the Mannahill Community Hall where no hot showers, no potable water, and no air conditioning. Nightly temperatures were on its chilly side of 1 degree. Days were cool and really windy. A few of our volunteers were staying in tents and the ladies were sleeping on air beds in the hall floor.

I decided to split the group as small teams and allocated to work on different areas. Each group contained one leader who could help others with their tasks. Our team members worked hard on their knees, scrubbing, painting and cleaning. By the end of the week we could finish the works more than what we planned. We fixed new floors, painted the house, put up a new carport, fixed a new fence, and we even painted the front wall of the hotel building in town. One of our volunteer come forward to travel 260kms to get some material for the work, they all are amazing. I felt like I was really blessed with this marvellous team.

The final night they all gathered around with tired but glowing faces with full of happiness and satisfaction. I was still wondering, these friends, who are coming from a life with all facilities, but the way they are coping with tough situations like this was great. Not even one person complained about the difficulties they are dealing with. That much understanding they had. I still would like to thank my dedicated friends. They are great and it is good to know they really enjoyed helping others. One of our friends in team wrote to me later “From the first day of work, I felt the spirit singing within me, and knew this was where God wanted us to be, we were relished getting to know some of the people in this isolated community.”

Betty was so happy to see her dreams coming true. She is a lovely lady who is everywhere, ready to do anything to help. It is a delight to see her running around, with full of enthusiasm to help us. Her husband was a roo shooter and got sick years before. Because of his illness, he got depressed and decided to be away from the others. He has been in his room for years now and she was looking after him very well. Betty was updating him everything about what we doing around the house and at nights, after everyone left the place, Betty used

to show him around to see the new face of their house.

The great reward from this project was happened just a day before we finishing our work. Before the afternoon tea break, Betty ran to me with a sparkling face and she screamed, “Sunny, Look Monty would like to see you”. It was a shocking surprise for everyone. After long years, he would like to meet someone. I talked to him just for a short time, but that was more than rewarding for this entire week’s satisfaction.

Betty’s son, Wayne was like one of our own team member. Later he wrote to me “I have a renewed outlook on life and people in a positive way after this, My faith in humanity has been restored. The work we completed here this week, were needed doing for two decades and my words fail to explain the emotions of this wonderful experience”.

Betty wrote to me later in her handwritten letter, full of beautiful words expressing her joy and satisfaction about the week. She said, the motto of Frontier Services, ‘Standing with the people in the Bush’, that is so true, we are grateful for their happy faces. The main qualification needed for the volunteers are Laughter and Enthusiasm and they all passed in. Yes, everyone had great Fun, Food and Fellowship. Betty ended her words by saying: They came; They conquered & They won!

The founder of Frontier Services, John Flynn’s vision about Remote Australia is “Mantle of Safety” and Frontier services is so proud to journey with Farmers and Graziers in remote area in SA. I am so happy to make a real difference to the families in stations and small communities at the heart of Australia by “Breaking the Barriers and Building the Bridges”. If you wish to support practically our friends in Remote Area SA as a volunteer through wonderful charitable organisation of UCA - Frontier services, most welcome to contact me anytime.

Be a Voice, Not an Echo.“Showing compassion is a lot more about action than it is

about words. When someone shares something difficult with

you, they are mostly looking for someone to listen them or

someone to help them’.

This is my 11th summer in Australia and this was on its extreme

too. On 16th January 2019, Port Augusta was the world’s

hottest spot (52 degree Celsius indicated in a local pub). Really

a shocking news!!! Dried dams, withered land, dying cattle,

heart breaking scene all around. Being with the people at that

time was a touching experience.

It was not rare to meet people on road waving for help for car

breakdowns. But the numbers were unusual in this summer.

There were days which I helped up to five flat tyres in a day

including mine. I met a couple from Germany who were in

trouble with their third puncture on same day, in an isolated

dirt road. The lady was really upset in scorching heat and said

with tears, ‘I just want to get out from here’.

These experiences made me think about “how isolated

you can become. The worst thing was that feeling of being

stranded; just knowing you can’t get to your home.”

I am convinced that bush chaplaincy is not a work, it’s a different

way of life, or it’s a different feeling. Driving long stretches of

distance in extreme weather, giving a hand to anything like

fixing fences, mustering, repair machines or renovating shed

etc. It can be anything, but the important part is, in between

listening to their heart, you can hear the way, they are pouring

their suppressed sorrows, worries, stresses, hopes, happiness

and so on. That moment is really divine and rewarding too. At

the end of the day, seeing the relief and satisfaction in their

eyes will be more than enough to wash out all the exhaustion

of my day. I admit, it’s not like a 9.00 am to 5.00 pm job in an

office, or ministry in a city church. But for me, it’s my life and the

satisfaction from this ministry is unbelievable and invaluable.

Here we are “becoming a voice, not an echo”.

We are so much fortunate to have the great support from many

volunteers expressing their helping hand. My future plans are

to arrange more work parties, more involvement in remote

indigenous communities and special care for people those

who are isolated and needy. Most welcome to contact me if

JAMESTOWN JUNIOR SPORT COMMITTEE

We are so fortunate to have so many sporting opportunities for our young people here in Jamestown. These activities are so beneficial for the social, emotional and physical development of our children. Just over 18 months ago, following discussion amongst officials from several local sporting bodies, a sub committee was formed called the ‘Jamestown Junior Sport Committee’.

The purpose of the committee is simple, in that it provides an opportunity for a round table forum for up to two officials from each of the sporting clubs or organisations and one representative from each of the two local schools in the Jamestown Community. Coaches, parents and administrators have often discussed options for working together for better fixtures where possible, to ease the burden on parents and volunteers.

The committee provides an opportunity to share knowledge, plans and ideas and to work better as a community whilst being respectful toward each other’s sporting interests.

Recently, the committee organised a ‘Code Of Conduct’ information session for the community and it is hoped that there will be further opportunities such as this for our groups to work together for particular areas, including training such as first aid and sports trainer courses, child protection and other areas.

We meet four times a year, with the option to meet more often if deemed fit.

Currently, the Chair of our committee is Scott Clark and the Secretary is Nickie Mead. We encourage every sporting body or organisation to ensure that they have a representative on this committee as we work together for the children and youth in our community.

The committee has developed a google calendar (with thanks to Tracey Dewell) which lists the many sporting and school activities, to help everyone with their planning and to fit around

each other.

You can visit our Jamestown Junior Sport Committee calendar at https://bit.ly/31266E6 or by scanning the QR Code.

You will also need a Google log in to access.

We look forward to sharing more with you as our committee continues and develops.

“FROM OUR PAST”Compiled by Jamestown Local History Group

120 Years Ago:

“The Agriculturist & Review”, August 1899

Heavy Frosts: The phenomenal succession of heavy frosts we have been experiencing of late have had the effect of retarding the growth of feed as well as putting a very hard surface on the ground the wheat plant, with its characteristic hardiness, is still looking well, but very backward. If the hopes of our agriculturists are to be fulfilled we must have rain, and plenty of it, and that right soon. Surely it is time that poor wapstraw came to a turning in the long lane of depression and bad seasons.

Jamestown University: A meeting of gentlemen interested in the formation of a University Centre at Jamestown was held in the Institute on Wednesday last. Mr. H. Boucaut was elected to the chair and gave a brief explanation of the object of the meeting. Mr. C. R. Hodge, Registrar of the University explained the need for, and the advantages to be derived from the permanent centre in Jamestown. Theoretical Examinations would be held locally and the secretary would be in a position to give all information required. A committee was formed. Mr. Hodge pointed out that it would be necessary for the committee to arrange for two or three supervisors to act at the examinations, while one would be required to read out the dictation. Mr. Hodge was thanked for his explanation of the procedures and he then thanked the group for seeking his help and support.

100 Years Ago:


Corporation: In reply to Cr. Russell, His Worship said it was proposed to spent the Grant money of £240 in reforming the side roads of Ayr Street, and making walks and improving banks along the creek. The whole of the Grant could not be spent in heavy work; that was why it is proposed to improve the banks of the creek and make walks. From J.W. Lines drawing attention to the bad state of road in Cambridge Street and asking that an approach be made to his gate; also that something be done to get the water away from the corner of his property, that stands there all winter. He would also point out that the approach to park gate was under water when it rains. Cr. Page listed a number of items that should be attended to in Alexandra Terrace and that a street light be placed on the north-east side of the small plantation in North Parade.

Father’s Association: A general meeting of the local branch of the Sailors and Soldiers Fathers Association will be held in the institute Supper Room on Tuesday evening next. Intending members are given a cordial invitation to attend.

75 Years Ago:


Great Northern Cup: Final arrangements are being made for the above Patriotic Meeting to be run on August 19. The Club is grateful to the land owners who are giving permission to course on their properties. Luncheon will be provided by the Ladies committee of the Canowie Belt FFCF and will be held in Mr. Ralph Napper’s barn. Mr. Ralph will be judge and Mr. F. Kelly slipper. Nominations close with the Secretaries, Mr. B. C. Kelly and N. Siviour on August 18. Draw will be held the same night.

Town Clerk Resigns: After twenty two years as Town Clerk of the Corporation of Jamestown, Mr. William Naismith relinquished the position on Saturday, and tendered his resignation to the Mayor, Mr. E.T. Daly, on account of ill health. Mr. Naismith spent most of his life in Jamestown, was storekeeping up to 1922, and in his youth was a fine athlete, particularly as a foot runner and lacrosse player, cricketer and golfer. For many years he was Secretary, guide, philosopher and friend to the Jamestown Racing Club in the days when the “gate” was £600 and £7,000 went through the Tote. Councillors and ratepayers regret the

severance of the old associations with their veteran Town Clerk and all wish him a speedy recovery. Mr. D. Boucaut is acting Town Clerk.

Proposed Factory for Town: It is learned from the Mayor, Mr. E. T. Daly, that Mr. E. H. D. Russell, M.H.R, is endeavouring to have a clothing factory, such as has been placed in several other S.A. country towns, placed at Jamestown, and that there is every prospect that 20 to 30 local women and girls would be employed. There is ample accommodation in buildings in the town for 100 workers.

50 Years Ago:

“The Northern Review”, August 1969

Dingo Bounty Increased: The government has raised the bounty on dingo scalps from $2 to $6 to bring it more into line with the present day cost of dog destruction, said the Premier of South Australia, Mr. S. Hall this week. The bounty has not been increased for 21 years. However, growing concerns by stockowners that wild dogs are becoming an increasing problem has led to the increase. Dingoes are reporting to be hunting in packs and killing calves in the cattle country outside the 1,470 mile long Dog Fence.

Steps Taken: The first steps taken to form a Businessmen’s Association at Jamestown were taken on Monday night at a well attended meeting called by the Mayor, (Mr. B.N. Williams). The meeting with an attendance of 30 and apologies from a further 13, unanimously decided to form an association. Several speakers voiced the opinion that such an association should have as its objec, the overall promotion of Jamestown. The motion passed at the meeting was:- “Believing that Jamestown has the potential to retain and develop its position as a social, business and sporting centre, and recognising the responsibility of the business community to co-operate with all organisations in the endeavour, be it resolved that a businessmen’s association be formed for this purpose.” A steering committee of six was appointed to prepare firm proposals for the association’s formation and to report back to a further meeting within six weeks.

Radio and T.V. Offences: Fines totalling $438were imposed on 23 people on three northern centres this week for not being in possession of current radio and T.V. licenses. Those guilty were from Gladstone, Booleroo Centre and Wilmington.

25 Years Ago:

“The Jamestown Journal”, August 1994

From the District Council: From the Budget: $10,000 has been set aside toward Maintenance and Improvements to the Memorial Hall, it is a part of an ongoing program to improve the Hall. An allowance of $5,000 has been set aside to join the project, with the Lions and Apex Clubs for the up-grading of the Memorial Park Rotunda; A further $5,000 is set aside to help with the fibre glassing of the Swimming Pool; Development of the Jamestown Airstrip will occur with an extension to the southern end of the airstrip which is required to ensure that minimum safety standards are maintained in accordance with Council’s insurers; The service charge for the Common Effluent Drainage Scheme was declared at the same rate of previous years of $50 per occupied allotments and $32 per vacant block in the township. Council is offering a rate discount of 1.5percent for rates paid in full on or before the 31st day of October, 1994. July and August have been busy months for the Jamestown Lions Club. Many hours of work have been rendered in laying of pipes and fitting up the BBQ’s thanks to the generosity of Catford Bros., who have constructed their third BBQ and cages at no cost to our Club, many thanks for this very generous donation which will be of a great benefit to the travelling public and the local populace. The Club has made generous donations to local clubs and organisation to the value of nearly $4,000. A great effort chaps.


Congratulations to the 2019 Hallett Community Grant

recipients EnergyAustralia, the operator of Hallett power station, is proud to announce its support of two local community groups through the 2019 EnergyAustralia Hallett Community Grants program.

Image: Hallett Community Hub committee; Sam Quinn, Dennis Dalla, Greg Hall, Tessa Tiver, Debby Hale, Fiona Sullivan, Kristine Peters and Alanna Marlow (EnergyAustralia)

The long-awaited opening of the new Hallett Community Hub will provide a growing local community with a fantastic family friendly space for regular family nights, playgroup, community events and mental health support as well as informal get-togethers that will help newcomers get to better know their neighbours.

Whilst the project, supported by the Hallett Community and Sports Association, has been lucky enough to receive support to repurpose the old Bowling Club, the EnergyAustralia grant

will fund a hot water system and a free-standing oven to provide catering options for events.

The “Navigating Life” Workshop Series in Peterborough will be delivered in joint partnership by Regional Development Australia Yorke and Mid North, Peterborough Youth Action Committee and Uniting Country SA.

Hayley Trott, Peterborough Community Development Officer, said “This workshop series will enable Peterborough’s young adults to be better participants in the community, more employable and more confident in actively participating in life. The EnergyAustralia Community Grant will allow us to purchase the equipment that is required for the class and then included in the take home packages”.

NEWS AND VIEWSRecently we were blessed with an artistic display by three incredible world-class guitarists as part of the Adelaide Festival Centre’s Guitar Festival Resonance program. Resonance takes performers on tour to people who cannot attend shows in the city. Our residents and families absolutely loved the magnificent music.

With the cold and flu season on us we have been busy trying to ensure the bugs are kept away from our vulnerable older people. This is a friendly reminder that if you have a sniffly nose or cough, to please avoid visiting. If you are well, you are of course most welcome to visit.

We are always looking for volunteers to join our community so if you would like to lend a hand a few hours a week we would love to hear from you. Please give us a call on 8664 2200 or pop in to say hello.

FUTSAL NEWSFutsal at the Big Shed on a Friday night draws a large crowd of

enthusiastic people from across the region. Players from the age

of 5 to 18yrs make up a number of mixed gender teams over the 4

divisions. Kick off for our youngest group of players is at 5.30pm. 8

games are played across the 2 courts. Our older more experienced

teams play in the last games at 7.pm or 7.45pm. Games consist of

2x 20min halves. Lots of action for the spectators to get involved

with and encourage the players along.

The season is ticking away as we approach Rd 11 of a 15 week

season. This will then see us play Knockout Finals on Friday 30th

August. All players and teams are aiming to make the Grand Finals

on 6th September starting at 5pm.

To help our players further develop their skills and knowledge of

the game we were lucky to host a FFSA Futsal Clinic at Jamestown

during the school holidays. We had 2 FFSA Coaches attend, Ben

Howard & Victor Claye. This was a great learning opportunity for

all that attended. Both Coaches put the players through some ball

skill drills and game practise readiness.

Anyone is welcome to join us on a Friday night in the Big Shed. We

have a great canteen with a wonderful selection of food items on

the menu. So you can have tea out and watch this game called

Futsal. Come and check it out. You or your child may like to try it

next season. You can find out more details on our website www.jamestownfutsal.com.au

LYN PROVES AGE IS NO BARRIER

Lyn Humphris of Jamestown won the State Triathlon Series for

SA for the 2018/2019 season. She competed in 8 of the 9 races

throughout the competition, fi nishing with 4 1st places, 2 2nd

places and 2 3rd places, making her the overall winner for the

50-55 year age group in the State.

Lyn has been training and competing in Triathlon events for over 5

seasons and is successfully showing that age is no barrier. When

we asked Lyn what she thought the highlight of her Triathlon

career was, she said “making it in the top 25 for her age group at

last years ITU World Triathlon held in the Gold Coast ”.

A normal week of training for Lyn to compete in Triathlon events

consists of 12 - 15 hours of body conditioning. Her coach Aaron

Buchan is Lyn’s coach, “I couldn’t do without the support of Aaron,

he writes my training programs for the swim, bike and run, which

includes mind strengthening and diet regimes especially for the

weeks leading up to competition. He places a strong emphasis

on coaching the mind as well as body” Aaron lives in Adelaide

and is representing Australia for the 4th time in the coming World

Triathlon.

The training doesn’t stop for Lyn, she is now training up to almost

20 hours a week to participate in her next big journey. Lyn will be

taking part in the Iron Man Challenge in Busselton on Dec 1st this

year. For those who are unaware of what this entails, here is what

Lyn is in store for. A 3.8km Swim in Open Water, 180km Bike Ride

and a 42.2km Run which needs to be accomplished all within 17

hours max.

Lyn has been competing in primarily short course triathlons,

so stepping into the long course Iron Man event is a great new

when we can write another great story about our local sports

hero’s great achievements. Go Lyn!
