Many of you may wonder hy someone my age (25) was willing to become President. Firstly I came to know oft e Friends in 1991 when one ofmy fathers work mates suggested we join an organisation called the riends of the Heysen Trail. In June 1992 1 attended the inaugural HahndorfEarly Settlers lk and met a gentleman by the name ofNeville Southgate who was trying (rather unsuccessful y) to find volunteers to work in the newly opened Friends office in Pitt Street. I decided to volunt er my time and since then I have been: - an office volunteer - membership secretary - publicity committee me - trail walker editor -voluntary administrative - walk leader -trail maintenance and~ ening volunteer - council member - vice president and finall president. Over these years I have se n many changes; people have come and gone, the Heysen Trail was completed and the role of he Friends has changed. But, one thing that will never change is my loyalty to the Friends. Ifl idn't believe in what the friends were doing I would have left years ago. I believe this is also the ca e with many other members, both those here tonight and those unable to make it who are passionat about the role of the Friends. As you can see from that ·efrecollection of my time with the Friends I have taken on many voluntary duties as have t se before me and hopefully those in the future also. Without volunteers the He sen Trail would not have been completed ahead of schedule (or completed at all), the offi would be closed and the excellent walks we put on would have remained the pleasure of handful of walkers. As you may have now real sed the role of volunteers is important to the continuing success of the Friends, and that is why w are always very keen to have new volunteers take on duties with the Friends. 1997 will be remembered s a good year for the Friends. 1/. The maintenance the Heysen Trail has continued despite having no Government funding for maintenance or a Proj t Officer. My personal thanks go out to each Section Leader and all those volunteers who wer able to assist during the year. 2/. The walk committ e and the walk leaders are to be commended on an excellent years walk programme. All the walk were well attended and all the walk leaders were praised on the quality of their walks. The 1998 alk programme looks as if it will also be a success. 3 . •• •• • •• •• •• •• •• • • 3/. All members ofthe Council are to be congratulated on a job w 11 done. This handful of people have helped to ensure that the Friends have run as smoothly as ossible. I thank our outgoing Council Members: Barbara Blacoe and Arthur Smith. 4/. I would like to thank the volunteers who have staffed the Frie s office. Your professionalism and dedication to duty is appreciated by all members fthe Friends. While on the subject of the office I would like to welcome the followi g new volunteers: John Crouch will be in Mondays David Beaton will be in Tuesdays Jack Marcelis will be in Wednesdays We still need an extra person to help out on Monday and Friday. 51. I would also like to say that the friends have now proven we c stand on our own two feet without Government assistance. In 1997 we almost broke even for th year even though we spent $5000 of accumulated funds on the repair ofEngelbrook bridge. This is now the second year running that the Friends have recorded an operating surplus. Our Treasurer John Wilson will shortly present his 1997 financial rep rt. The information for this report was prepared thro~ghout the year by our bookkeeper Kath Paly a. 6/. During 1997 and the beginning of 1998 the Friends have been sing donations received for trail projects. The first donation of S 1000 from Rossi Boots which is being used to r store Rossi's Hut at Pewsey Vale by Doug Leane and his team. The second donation of $700 from the Burra Lions Club will be used r a toilet and shelter near Burra. The third donation of$200 from the GeoffHunkin memorial fund wil be used toward installing a water tank and shelter on the Southern Side of Mount Arden. The fourth donation of$1100 from the GeoffHunkin memorial fund ·II be used toward installing signage at the Hahndorf and Bridgewater ends of the Heysen Spur Tra . The remainder of this money will be used toward other Trail projects. We thank Geoffs family for these generous donations. Finally I would be remiss without thanking each and every member of he Friends. Without your continuing support we would cease to function. I also take great pleasure in informing you all that the discount Movie ickets will once again be offered in the May Trailwalker and that the number of businesses offe ·ng discounts to you the members has now increased to 12 with Mitchells Disposals at Marion hopping Centre being the latest addition. I have always been told never to thank any one person in particular as thers will feel left out. But, I feel that I must say thankyou to Neville Southgate for without him I ould never have started working in the Friends office and the skills I have picked up over they ars have helped me in gaining employment and in my every day life. Thankyou Neville. Richard Schmitz PRESIDENT 27.3.1998 tt . •• •• •• •• •• ··7k7~w~·· •• • • PRESIDENTS REPORT (cont.)

  • Arkaba Adventure
    On top of the Red Range at golden hour, you can look out past the grass trees, across Wilpena Pound towards the Elder Range. SOUTH AUSTRALIA Wilpena Pound Arkaba adventure Adelaide Nobody would dispute the fact Rimmed by spectacular ochre-coloured cliffs and wending its way that South Australia’s Flinders past ancient red gums and through wildflower-studded grasslands, Ranges are spectacular. this four-day Flinders Ranges walk is a captivating must-do. This region’s rugged terrain, rolling hills, deep valleys and ancient waterways offer a sense of true remoteness. Story and photography by Justin Walker Wilpena Pound and neighbouring Arkaba Conservancy are two of the ranges’ most popular destinations – par- ticularly for bushwalkers – with a variety of short, long and very long tracks to follow, allowing experienced walkers the chance to really immerse themselves in this region of Australia. But that doesn’t mean those with less time, fitness or walking experience can’t enjoy exploring these areas. In fact, joining a guided walking adventure here can lead to a richer experience…which is exactly what I discovered on the Arkaba Walk. STEP INTO GREATNESS Crossing some of Australia’s most spectacular and varied terrain, the fully guided and supported Arkaba Walk takes four days and three nights, staying at historic shepherd and station camps. It winds its way from the beautiful natural amphitheatre surrounded by mountains known as Wilpena Pound, and heads across the forested interior of the Pound itself, before traversing the private Arkaba Conservancy wilderness (see page 110) and finishing at the restored Arkaba Homestead.

PRINT POST APPROVED PP56500 1100079 Greening Gawler Two generations meet to help green our trails Richard Schmitz and Barbara Rundle •• •• •• •• ··7~7~w~·· •• •• •• •• PRESIDENT'S REPORT Vandalism continues to be a problem on The Trail , particularly on those sections close to the metropolitan area. At times the damage seems to be mindless and random , and other times, more malevolent, with logoes repositioned to send walkers on a course at right angles to the correct one. As with graffiti, possibly one of the best deterrents is to rectify the damage as soon as possible, so the persons responsible do not get any lasting gratification from their deeds. It is important therefore, in the interest of safety and as a deterrent to vandals, that any damage to the trails is reported as soon as possible, so immediate repairs can be organised. To this end, it is also important that we have a pool of volunteers willing to form working parties at short notice. Thanks to Shirley and Malcolm Tavender for prompt repair after a recent instance. As reported elsewhere, I recently had the pleasure of leading 27 walkers on a day walk to Marschalls Hut. Everybody was very favourably impressed, and a big thanks must go to the Officers from Rec. S.A. responsible, the workers from Bryan Place who did the restorations, and to property owner James Huppatz. The best way to give thanks is to use the Hut regularly, fill in the Log Book, and help with any maintenance requ ired .
