Graeme Bucknall (2/5/1909—6/11/1995) As with many other people who have come to Orbost even for a relatively short time, Rev. Graeme Bucknall has vivid memories. These excerpts were provided by his son Ruary Bucknall. Orbost was Graeme Bucknall’s first appointment as a Presbyterian Minister after completion of his B.A. and B.D. He was born in Portland in 1909 and grew up on the family farm where he gained useful experience in his early years by working on the Pine Plantations that his Grandfather and Father were establishing there and at Hobart. In 1938, he married Jean Williamson, and it was as a young married couple with one child, John, that they entered into the life of Orbost. "I was delighted when I was sent to Orbost and arrived in January 1939 in my brand new 10 hp February I returned to Melbourne to bring Jean Austin.

  • Logging Within RSOS Spotlight on the Acheron Valey
    LOGGING WITHIN RAINFOREST SITES OF SIGNIFICANCE SPOTLIGHT ON THE ACHERON VALLEY [NATIONAL RSOS CH6: ACHERON] Dear Premier, Ministers and Treasurer; Daniel Andrews Jaala Pulford Lisa Neville Tim Pallas Premier Agriculture Minister Environment Minister Treasurer [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] VicForests’ Logging within Rainforest Sites of Significance: Spotlight on the Acheron Valley In Victoria in 2015 the logging of our State Forests, which is diminishing biodiversity through its impacts on threatened species' habitat as well as degrading remnant natural landscapes through fragmentation and depletion of critical ecological elements, is not supported by the majority of the broader Victorian community as responsible management of a precious and revered public asset. In this context, it is clear that the logging of Rainforest Sites of Significance does not meet community standards and Victorians would certainly expect this practice to be a relic of the past. THE ACHERON VALLEY URGENT: FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION Logging is currently recommencing within VicForests’ coupes 309-508-0018, 309-509-0002 and 309- 509-0003 in one of Victoria’s National Rainforest Sites of Significance (RSOS). This site is in the Acheron Valley to the north of Warburton and the east of Healesville in the Central Highlands of Victoria near Melbourne. This site supports and is intended to protect rainforest stands that have been recognised as having the highest significance in Victoria and indeed nationally. This assessment was made commencing in 1990 by the then Victorian Environment and Natural Resources departments.

  • Go Bush November 2014
    GO BUSH NOVEMBER 2014 BENDIGO BUSHWALKING AND OUTDOOR CLUB INC President’s message for November Five members of the Committee met at my place on November 12. We have selected the BBOC Logo; it is buff colored with a brown oval border. Chris Franks is going to now find a manufacturer. There were 44 photographs submitted for the 2015 calendar, and the winning entries will be on display at the November meeting. Of those that made it into the calendar there are great photos of the Kosciuszko NP, Bogong High Plains, Black Hill and others from SA, Tas & NZ. The calendar is A4 on 200 gsm. gloss card. There is an early bird price of just $10; ring Garry on 0450879917 to get one. Roland has done a great job in drafting up a new front page for our website to include a 'Welcome to New Members'. He showed us link pages to important general bushwalking advice from both the Ballarat and Boroondara Clubs. We will study these and use them to come up with our own advice links, at the next Committee meeting in January. The November meeting will be a 'Calendar Nite'. Members are encouraged to notify an activity that they will lead. These activities are the reason that our club exists, so think now about what you could do next year. We will provide some wine and nibbles at that meeting. Our Xmas function will be at the Marong Pub Lounge on Tuesday, Dec 9 at 7 pm. We've heard that the venue and the food are excellent, so it should be a great nite.

Researching the Shire information is very time consuming and it has not been possible to devote the required time to this task during the past month. It is planned to resume the series with the October Newsletter. Snowy River Saga By N. A. Wakefield The Snowy River Mail’, Wednesday, June 9, 1954: Soon after the inception of the State of Victoria, just a hundred years ago, a young German migrant, Dr Ferdinand Mueller, was appointed to the position of Government Botanist in Melbourne. Within three years of the date of his taking office he had journeyed over 5,000 miles throughout the new colony, for the purpose of “elucidating its flora” as he used to say. In his official report for 1854 the indefatigable explorer described how he “reached in the middle of March, the country beyond the mouth of the Snowy River, the most southerly locality in which palms exist in the Australian continent.” Now, with a century gone by, we find there — in place of a vast expanse of virgin jungle — the richest farm land in the State. And therein lies our story. The area was discovered in 1836, and was visited again in the two years following by William Morris, a pastoralist of Moruya on the south coast of New South Wales.
