It contains reports and financial statements for the season 2017/ 2018 as required under the Club's constitution. The Port Fairy Surf Life Saving Club Inc. is endorsed as a Deductible Gift Recipient, thus donations to the Club are tax deductible. The Club is a registered charity. The Club operates from a building at the East beach, Port Fairy, constructed in 2000. During the season members patrol the moderately safe beach in front of the Club building. The sea to the North is far more energetic and at times dangerous. The Surf club was formed in 1951 out of the former Royal Port Fairy Swimming and Life Saving Club that operated from the sheltered South beach, from 1924 to 1942.

I am pleased to inform you now that the building is at lockup stage and is due for completion before the 2018 – 2019 season commences. It will have a large area for education and training of Club members in life saving skills, an office, equipment storage area, and an accessible toilet. The area can be used for social functions as well. On the lower level, the heavy and wet equipment storage area has been extended. This has been a mammoth task. On behalf of us all, I would like to say a great big thank you to Paul B and Martina for coordinating the project. Club membership has grown from 575 last season to 738 members in all categories. The most dramatic increase has been in the nippers’ categories from 346 to 453. This demonstrates the popularity of the program. For this, I thank Nicole for her role as Nipper coordinator, her age managers, water safety and other supporters. We look forward to seeing many coloured caps, and youngsters in pink rashy vests again next season. During the 2017-2018, season Club members won 212 Surf Life Saving Australia awards. A very good number indeed for a small club. Thank you Shaun for coordinating the training program and to all your helpers for getting it under way. The Club provided a total of 2,041 hours of patrol attendance for the season. Again, I stress a remarkable achievement for a small club of volunteer patrol members. Shaun Murrihy topped the list for patrol hours’ attendance with 104 hours and thus deservedly received a LSV award. Carnival wise, members have been successful as individuals and teams both in beach and water events. At the Australian Titles in Perth, the Firebirds and Shearwaters came 5th in their finals. A great effort. Well done – you have done our Club proud. The Shipwreck Coast Ocean Swim series proved to be an exciting event with Jordan Merrilees coming in first and Olympic gold medallist Mack Horton second. Our Abbie Artis and Ed Thomas were the first Club members to cross the line. Well done Abbie and Ed. Fund raising has been very active during the season. The Club has been fortunate to have generous benefactors. Most funds raised have gone towards the cost of building the new Education and Training Centre. A list of our major sponsors and supporters is provided at the rear of this report. It is my pleasure to thank all our sponsors and donors. Presentation night was successfully held on Friday 4th of May. The President’s Award went to Nicole Dwyer for her outstanding work with overall Club activities and promotion. Again, I say to Board members, thanks for your attendance at meetings and support of the Club. There would be no Club without a dedicated Board of Directors. Dear Members, I have great pleasure in commending this report to the meeting. Ian Powell, President. Page 5 of 26 Club Captain Many times during the season I marvelled at Patrolling Members sacrifices and commitment they give to patrolling our beaches. When people say, "You do a great job at looking after everyone," you should answer, “Yes we do.” This was more evident this year than ever before, as with record numbers at Nippers we need as many qualified helpers as possible and adult help was terrific. The addition of 15 SRC holders was a great help for the program. The four patrolling groups numbers each weekend were ok but we are always looking for more help. Hopefully in the near future with many teenagers gaining their SRC this season we can maybe have 5-6 patrolling groups. Shaun Murrihy, Club Captain Club Secretary Our 2017 season was very successful. Thank you to all our wonderful volunteers for making this happen. I would like to thank our administrator Paul Nash for his work and a big thank you to our President, Ian Powell who puts in hours of his time to enable the smooth running of the Club. We are very lucky to have many hard working volunteers so thank you all for what you do. Once again, we had a great year with our fundraising efforts over the season that include, the Duck Race, Swim Series, New Year’s Eve collection. A huge thank you to Nicole Dwyer for the many hours put in to running a very successful Nippers programme. I believe that through Nicole’s hard work and assistance from nipper parents we now run one of the largest very successful Nipper programmes in Victoria. The competition season was very busy. Our men’s and women’s boat crews won Gold medals at the Victorian Masters in Lorne and competed in the Australian Titles on Scarborough beach in Western Australia. We hope to get more of our new members to compete at carnivals next season. Thank you to our Board of Directors and our dedicated volunteers that give their time to patrol and help the Club to be successful. Tania Dalton, Club Secretary. Chief Instructor It’s been a very successful and rewarding year as Chief Instructor with: 13 Bronze Medallion 16 SRC (Surf Rescue Certificate) 4 IRBD (Inflatable Rescue Boat Driver) awards gained by old and new members.

    9 October 2019 Dear resident/business owner, CREWS INSTALLING RUMBLE STRIPS IN SOUTH WEST VICTORIA As part of Towards Zero, Regional Roads Victoria will be installing rumble strips on high-speed roads across the south west region of Victoria. These small bumps make a ‘rumbling’ sound and cause a vehicle to vibrate when driven over. This alerts drivers if they move out of their lane and helps to prevent head-on or run-off-road collisions. In October through to early December, works will begin on the following roads: Road From/To location Glenelg Hwy Ballarat Sa Border Hamilton Hwy Geelong Glenelg Hwy Portland-Nelson Rd Henty Hwy Sa Border Penshurst-Warrnambool Rd Penshurst Princes Hwy West Warrnambool- Mailors Flat-Koroit Rd Caramut Rd Penshurst-Warrnambool Rd Penshurst-Dunkeld Rd Penshurst Glenelg Hwy Portland-Casterton Rd Princes Hwy West Glenelg Hwy Penshurst-Port Fairy Spencer Rd Rd Hamilton-Port Fairy Rd Penshurst-Port Fairy Rd Princes Hwy West Penshurst-Warrnambool Rd Bridge (Warrnambool) Rd Bushfield Warrnambool-Caramut Rd Warrnambool-Caramut Rd Warrnambool Caramut Coleraine-Merino Rd Coleraine Condah-Coleraine Rd Dartmoor-Hamilton Rd Princes Hwy West Hamilton Hamilton-Port Fairy Rd Henty Hwy Port Fairy Bridgewater Rd Portland Cape Bridgewater Henty Hwy Portland Sunraysia Hwy EHrick-Tyrendarra Rd Princes Hwy West Woolsthorpe-Heywood Rd Mckinnons Bridge-Noorat Rd Princes Hwy West Noorat Woolsthorpe-Heywood Rd Woolsthorpe Heywood Madeira Packet Rd Henty Hwy Henty Hwy (Loop) Hopkins Hwy Warrnambool Hamilton Hwy Coleraine-Merino Rd Coleraine Condah-Coleraine Rd Dartmoor-Hamilton Rd Princes Hwy West Hamilton Hamilton-Port Fairy Rd Henty Hwy Port Fairy Timing of works Works will be completed in two stages.

  • SOME EVIDENCE from 'YAMBUK', WESTERN VICTORIA Jan Critchett
    A CLOSER LOOK AT CULTURAL CONTACT: SOME EVIDENCE FROM ‘YAMBUK’, WESTERN VICTORIA Jan Critchett The Western District of Victoria has been a favoured area of study for academics interested in the archaeology, prehistory and race relations aspects of our past. Corris, Reece, Christie, Barwick, Marcard, Massola, Critchett, Lourandos, Coutts, as well as others from the Victoria Archaeological Survey, have published work concerning the District. Yet despite the large amount of research undertaken there are many gaps in our knowledge. This is particularly so if one wants to know in detail of relations bet­ ween the two cultures, of anything more than the most general outline of racial con­ flict, or of Aboriginal responses, of adaptive behaviour by which Aborigines attempted to establish a new life-style for themselves. To find answers to such questions new sources will have to be examined. A source area so far neglected is the diaries and journals kept by many station owners and individuals. It is true that not all have been overlooked: a selected few have been over-worked. Yet there has been no systematic attempt to study these station by station. The aim of the piece of research which led to this paper was simply to take one such source, a fairly detailed one, recording events in a key area of the District and examine the extent to which it could throw further light on race relations and provide new details of Aboriginal culture. The main source used is the diaries of Annie Maria Baxter (later Dawbin).1 Annie was the wife of Lieutenant Andrew Baxter who in 1843 took up ‘Yambuk’, a small squatting property in the Western District of Victoria.
