    TASAC Minutes 8 February 2017 Minutes of the Tourist Attraction Signposting Assessment Committee Wednesday 8 February 2017 in the Councillors’ Workroom Orange City Council, 135 Byng Street, Orange Members David Douglas Regional Coordinator TASAC and Drive, Destination NSW Phil Oliver Guidance and Delineation Manager, Roads & Maritime Services (RMS) Maria Zannetides TASAC Secretariat Also present Tracey Crowe Information Officer, Orange Visitor Information Centre Sharon Grierson RMS Western Region Marty Cassell RMS Western Region Apologies Glenn Mickle Tourism Manager, Orange City Council AGENDA ITEMS 1. DELEGATIONS / PRESENTATIONS & REGIONAL SIGNPOSTING ISSUES 1.1 Orange Wine Tourism Region signage scheme implementation TASAC determined that the Orange Wine Tourism Region was eligible for tourist signage in June 2015 but signs for individual wineries have not been installed as yet. Prerequisites for the determination were the installation of “Welcome” signs at the region’s key entry points and the establishment of information bays featuring panels with a map of the region’s wineries, winery contact details and opening hours for each winery. Tracey updated the Committee regarding progress with individual winery signage as follows: i. Glenn Mickle, Orange Council’s Tourism Manager, has negotiated an agreement between Orange and Cabonne Councils, the Orange Region Vignerons Association (ORVA) and individual wineries about respective financial contributions for the installation of signage for individual wineries. ii. Contributions from the individual wineries are due by the end of February 2017. RMS has designed signage for the scheme and Marty forwarded a quote for the manufacture and delivery of the signage to Glenn in November 2016. As the time limit for the quote has expired Marty will arrange for an updated quote after Glenn advises that the individual winery contributions have been collected.

  • Kirribilli House Bathing Pool and Early Harbourside Pools in Sydney

Unl.eratt7 or B7dne7 2006 ISSN 0819-4076. Telephone (02) 6i2 2163 Winter, 1987 Number 2 KIRRIBILLI HOUSE BATHING POOL AND EARLY HARBOURS IDE POOLS IN SYDNEY :A BRIEF SURVEY Grace Karskens Introduction I was commissioned in 1986 to assess the cultural signifi­ cance of the stone harbourside pool at Kirribilli House, Kirribilli, N.S.W .• The pool was presumably built by merchant Adolph Feez, of Rabonne Feez and Co., who purchased a portion of the adjoining Wotonga (now Admiralty House) in 1854, and built the twin gabled house on it in ~he following year. To make this assessment it was necessary first to ascertain the popularity of recreational bathing' during the 1850s, and hence the likely number of private bathing pools built; and second to determine the present-day survival of such pools. Historical Outline A brief overview of the history of nineteenth-century bathing indicates four stages in the growth of this past-timers popularity: Stage 1: During the early period (1788-c1820) bathing for recreation occurred informally - convicts and ordinary settlers bathed in the sea and the rivers. Stage 2: From c1825-1850 bathing for ordinary people was formalised by the establishment of pUblic baths in the Domain in Woolloomooloo Bay by order of Governor Darling in 1829. 2. Bathers also swam in Darling Harbour. By 1853 the Surveyor General's map of Sydney Harbour shows four public baths in Woolloomooloo Bay, as well as the Governor's Bath House (see M.L.

  • From Track to Tarmac
    Federation Faces and Introduction A guided walk around the streets and laneways Places of North Sydney focusing on our Federation connections, including the former residences of A walking tour of Federation Sir Joseph Palmer Abbott, Sir Edmund Barton faces and places in North and Dugald Thomson. Along the walk, view the Sydney changes in the North Sydney landscape since th Federation and the turn of the 20 century. Distance: 6 Km Approximate time: 4 hours At the turn of the year 1900 to 1901 the city of Grading: medium to high Sydney went mad with joy. For a few days hope ran so high that poets and prophets declared Australia to be on the threshold of a golden age… from early morning on the first of January 1901 trams, trains and ferry boats carried thousands of people into the city for the greatest day of their history: the inauguration of the Commonwealth of Australia. It was to be a people‟s festival. Manning Clark, Historian It was also a people‟s movement and 1901 was the culmination of many years of discussions, community activism, heated public debates, vibrant speeches and consolidated actions. In 1890 the Australasian Federal Conference was held in Melbourne and the following year in Sydney. In 1893 a meeting of the various federation groups, including the Australian Native Association was held at Corowa. A plan was developed for the election of delegates to a convention. In the mid to late 1890s it was very much a peoples‟ movement gathering groundswell support. In 1896 a People‟s Convention with 220 delegates and invited guests from all of the colonies took place at Bathurst - an important link in the Federation chain.

EDUCATION RESOURCE TEACHER’S NOTES 1/7 teacher’s notes This is an education resource catering for the curriculum needs of students at Year 7 through 12, across New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory and Victoria. The following snap- shots show the Australian Alps as an effective focus for study. • The alpine and sub-alpine terrain in Australia is extremely small, unique and highly valued as a water supply as well as for its environmental, cultural, historic and recrea- tional significance. • Most of the Australian Alps lie within national parks with state and federal governments working cooperatively to manage these reserves as one bio-geographical area. • Climate, landforms and soils vary as altitude increases and so create a variety of envi- ronments where different plants grow together in communities. These in turn provide habitats for a wide range of wildlife. Many of these plants and animals are found nowhere else in the world and some are considered threatened or endangered. • The Alps reflect a history of diverse uses and connections including Aboriginal occupation, European exploration, grazing, mining, timber saw milling, water harvesting, conservation, recreation and tourism. Retaining links with this past is an important part of managing the region.
