We are eager to have any returning members, and ARE welcoming new members. Saturday April 20th is a COME AND TRY 2 man ambrose. This will be a great opportunity for anyone that is contemplating taking up golf.

The passing of John Malone on 31 March, will be a significant loss to For any information please contact Bundaleer, Jamestown and the wider community. Anthony Beyer 0408 651 026 or Captain David Hunt 0418 836 728 John’s contribution to the community through many organisations was always diligent, reliable, strategic and enthusiastic. He was especially gifted at making people new to the area welcome, whether it be new employees in the Bundaleer Forest , in the years prior to Adelaide Vocal Union 1995, or more recently visitors to the JDA Visitor Resource Centre, which he frequently manned. BARBERSHOP HARMONY CHORUS His extensive involvement in Agricultural Shows, goes back at least 60 years, as a Committee member of the Jamestown AH&F Society, of which he was President in 1977, 1978 and 1986, Patron from 2003- 2008, and member of the Cattle Committee until his passing. He was granted Honorary Life-Membership during the 1990’s. He also served as President of the Northern Agricultural Shows Association from 1984-86, and was President of the State Council of Agricultural Shows. As an exhibitor of Red Poll Cattle, he left his mark at the local, Royal Adelaide Show and Interstate Royal Shows, and recently became a Uniting Church Hall on Sunday May 19th at 2pm Life Member of the Red Poll Society. He hosted many visitors to his ~ including afternoon tea ~ Maleer Red Poll Stud, including international visitors on Australian $15 Tickets Available @ Palmer’s Jewellers Cattle Industry tours. John had extensive involvement in Farm Industry organisations, serving at the State level in the South Australian Farmers Federation (and its predecessor UF&G) Cattle Committee. He was a member of the body that set up the Jamestown Truck Wash Facility, near the Jamestown Saleyards. Another notable achievement was his involvement in all seven of the Bundaleer Festivals (1999-2013). He was an enthusiastic member of the Management Committee for each of these Festivals, using his extensive knowledge of the Bundaleer Forest to help in the provision of suitable venues for artistic performances along the walks. As a member of the Environment Committee he had a major role in providing the logistics and assembling the infrastructure for the Events. He was Chairman of the Management Committee for the 2011 Festival. This Festival had the distinction of achieving the largest financial return of any of the Festivals. John was involved with the Bundaleer Sport and Recreation Association from its formation as the Bundaleer Progress Association in 1962. This body was formed to set up sporting facilities (oval and tennis courts) and the Bundaleer Hall, using proceeds obtained by cropping some of the land in Bundaleer Forest. He was involved in that cropping programme, and played on those courts over many years as a member of the Bundaleer Tennis Club, and in the last 15 years has been with his wife Veronica the contact for external hiring of those facilities. In the last period of his life he was a strong advocate for the retention by Forestry SA of both Wirrabara and Bundaleer Forest Reserves as viable Softwood Forests, supplying log for the Jamestown Sawmill. He was a member of the Northern Forests Community Initiatives Group which drove this process. Throughout his life John with the help of his wife Veronica, made considerable contributions to the fabric of our community, which we all appreciate. Thank you John.

The littlest members of our Centre have been enjoying the mud patch over the last couple week. With no rain we have been making our own muddy puddles. We have had to carry enough water to make the gloopy mud! We have made mud pies, mud bricks and muddy puddles to jump in . We have used the mud to paint with and to draw with. Sometimes it has just been fun to wriggle our toes in the mud!

We turned our mud area into a construction zone. We added cones, trucks, shovels, wheelbarrows and hard hats. We set to work constructing our own road. There has been lots of talk lately about new roads and the trucks used to help build those new roads.

The Diggers Walk is an important step in preserving our precious heritage and we are keen to progress this project and see its completion under the guidance of Keith and Yvonne Woidt and other interested members. This project is a celebration of the spirit of the returning diggers and the contributions they made to their communities. The project will culminate with a night of celebrations on December 31st 2019. Planning is well under way to provide the community with a first class event and celebration of our history. We continue to work on the Ayr Street upgrade with the NAC and it is great to have the tree plantings of the median strip completed and trees established and the new toilet precinct is a great asset for the town. The ‘advertising’ poles in Ayr Street were a wonderful addition for the Christmas season and groups are encouraged to purchase and exhibit suitable banners and for further information please contact Mac and Bev Goode. The upgrade and landscaping of the Ayr Street will improve the general aesthetics of the main street and enhance the shopping experience. Giving visitors a pleasant experience and inviting areas to sit and rest encourages their return and their recommendations to other travellers. This year the mural festival is part of “Brush with Art” and will be held September 11th -15th. This will increase our profile to a wider audience and encourage visitation as part of an Art Trail.
