Ballan’s Shaun Campbell has claimed the Geoff Taylor Medal and made history. The local midfielder took out 34 votes in the CHFL Best and Fairest – marking the league’s second highest total in a single season. Campbell was nine votes clear of Rickey Ferraro from Hepburn, with Springbank’s Paul McMahon a further three behind. The 25-year-old, who was recruited from Ainslie this season, said he was pleasantly surprised to receive the honour. “If you had told me that I was going to win – let alone by that much – I probably would have told you where to go,” he said. “It’s just crazy, I knew I had a good year but not that good”. Campbell said he had enjoyed his first season at Ballan and looked forward to continuing to play in the league. “It’s a good standard of footy here but it’s also really laid back with such a community environment. Everyone is here for a bit of fun and to enjoy themselves and it’s good to see the level of involvement from the netballers”. Meanwhile, Gordon’s Luke Toohey and Ben Beasley from Springbank shared the Reserves Best and Fairest with 21 votes, while Newlyn’s Jesse Eastwell was three behind on 18. A comfortable 34 votes saw Ballan’s senior football Shaun Campbell take out the CHFL Best & Fairest Geoff Taylor medal from Ricky Ferraro (Hepburn) on 25 votes.

By Jessica Howard

Local emergency service volunteers can continue to keep the community safe thanks to a $12.5 million boost in funding. The current State Government has delivered the 2015-16 Volunteer Emergency Services Equipment Program (VESEP) in order to help fund new equipment and amenity upgrades. Bacchus Marsh State Emergency Service unit is one of a total of 43 VICSES units that will share in more than $2 million. Acting Regional Manager for the Mid-West Region, Peter Keppel said the Bacchus Marsh and Hepburn units would receive $30,000 to $35,000 in order to purchase additional 4-wheel drive vehicles. “The vehicles will improve the units ability to respond to incidents - especially searches, rescues and trees falling over roads,” he said. “Each unit contributes the remainder of the funds required”. CFA brigades will benefit from 202 grants totalling more than $7.1 million, including Bacchus Marsh, Coimadai and Elaine. Bacchus Marsh will receive over $65,000 for a new field command vehicle and defibrillator, whilst Elaine and Coimadai will receive close to $140,000 for room renovation and refurbishments. Minister for Emergency Services Jane Garrett said the 2015-16 Volunteer Emergency Services Equipment Program (VESEP) would help volunteer groups keep their communities safe. “The Andrews Labor Government recognises the enormous contribution of our 90,000 volunteers across the state and we’re pleased to support them by helping to fund life-saving equipment and vehicles,” she said. “Volunteers are the backbone of our community. They help protect the lives of more than 3.3 million David Lambrick (BM SES) is pleased with the announcement of State government funding to support volunteers within the emergency VictoriansRBD2725 and deserve Ballan Healthour support”.
