A school of beautiful fish swam along the river in the closing
ceremony. Dozens of people of all ages were part of the creation of these
65 luminous creatures, including kids from our local kinder and primary
school, Seachange Quilters, and students from Barwon Valley School. Big
thanks to all those who bought them to life... the huge troupe of fabulous

Hello everyone
our beautiful weather has continued, with
some much needed rain and very big
seas.
Our May meeting again focused on safety and we urge
you all to join the new Barwon Heads Neighbourhood
Watch; to lock your cars, be smart with your personal
belongings, and get to know your neighbours.
We would like to thank the people who have donated
money to the Barwon Heads Association so that we can
seek professional advice and support. We welcome our
new members and look forward to many more.
Ozone Rd pipe
We are aware through the Barwon Heads Sailing Club and
Barwon Coast that CoGG are preparing to install a new
drainage pipe to replace the existing outfall at the Ozone Rd
jetty. The new pipe will be further away from the jetty. We are
still clarifying information and understand the Sailing Club is
in negotiations with the Council.
The BHA committee understands that there is
considerable concern about the scale and potential
impact of the proposed pipe.

Donations
At the All Saints Op Shop we are always
so mindful that without your constant flow
of donations, our organisation could not
exist.
But twice a year, following Committee Meetings in May
and November, it is our great pleasure to be able to give
back to many community organisations donations to
keep their work going.
We always focus on those run by volunteers, so the two
Fire Brigades, Barwon Heads and Connewarre, two
Surf Life-Saving Clubs, and similar groups always
receive whatever we can give.
Then there are groups such as the Barwon Heads
Refugee Committee, which is desperate to have
money to put towards assisting so many people who
need legal assistance to cope with their plight.
Another really worthy recipient of our money is the Lions
Emergency Food Boxes scheme. Although we do not
see much evidence of hard times in our rather special

Hi Everyone!
It is somewhat a pleasant relief when a big event, such as the
Supper Dance, held by the BHFMS, is successfully over! Weeks
of planning for costs including the best music, Michael McQuaids
Swing Quintet, advertising, lighting from Huib de Bruin & Liam
from Bellerine Audio, a delicious 3 course supper from
Peppercorn, sponsorship from the Bendigo Bank, support from
Edgars Real Estate & wine from the Barwon Heads Wine Store &
the hire of the Barwon Heads Community Hall which is so suitable
for such an occasion!
Setting up the hall was a great team effort with the committee & friends working in
a harmonious group, setting the tables up around the dance floor with their red
tablecloths, adorned with candles standing on mirrors & surrounded by tiny
lights. Placing the wine glasses on the tables added to the glamour of the table
settings!
In the evening, the coloured lighting created a wonderful ambiance on arrival as
everyone was greeted with a welcoming drink & a choice of delicious canapes
with the music of Benny Goodman, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington & George
Gershwin & many other composers, getting everyone in the mood!
Regs comments put a further picture on the wonderful evening! All lit up &
dressed for the occasion. Michael McQuaids Swing Quintet had the place
jumping with memorable playing & singing. Everyone joined in with dancing,
laughter & even some singing along. There was a great spirit at the(down town
strutters)Hall on Saturday Night! Well done to the Barwon Heads Fine Music
Committee & many thanks to the supporters & sponsors! Thanks Reg!
The evening was both introduced & concluded by the One and Only Natale
Lewington, our Vice-President & exceptional leader of the Barwon Heads
Chorale, strongly backed by Maggie Isom, Kay Middleton, Russell Mitton, Reg
Brownell & our new committee member, Leanne Mumford!
Our next concert will be held on Sunday, !2th June in the Anglican Church,
Barwon Heads at 2.30pm. Donation: Friends/Members:$10; Visitors:$15.
Our guest artist is the wonderful pianist, SONOKA MIYAKE & we are
delighted to welcome her back again. Please join us for afternoon tea
following the concert.
Best wishes,

Caring for
Children's teeth
It is important to look after children's teeth for a few
reasons.

into adulthood.
Secondly, the baby or 'deciduous' teeth act as
placeholders for the adult teeth, if the baby teeth are lost
early children are more likely to need braces.
Some first teeth can be in children's mouth's
for over ten years, so it is important that they
are healthy and non-painful for this time. The
first adult teeth start coming through at around
the age of five or six, so it is critical to be taking
The government child dental benefits scheme, is closing on the first of July 2016.

Jesse Diggins
Its a freezing cold Sunday morning when I head to the Starfish to meet
Jesse Diggins.
We opt to sit outside in the sun and over a steaming cappuccino, Jesse tells me about his career as a
youth worker leading to him recently receiving recognition in the Victorian Young Achiever Awards.
500 people were nominated and 30 were recognised, Jesse in the category: Career Kickstarter,
Community Services Social Impact and I quote from http://www.awardsaustralia.com/young-achieverawards/vic
The Saward Dawson Community Service and Social Impact Award celebrates young people who
make a significant contribution through community service or social justice initiatives. The award
Jesse receives his award from The Hon. Jenny Mikakos
recognises individuals who are dedicated to the care of others, excel in their community sector
Minister for Youth Affairs
profession or field of employment and those who seek innovative solutions to addressing social issues.
They offer hope, education, care and support to those in their care. Whether it be for service provision,
Those in need, cultural and community support, health and well being, emergency services, academia or education,
they make a difference. These young people are not only at the forefront of caring and accomplishment, but are contributing to the community by achieving their goals
through hard work and perseverance and they are wonderful role models for us all.
Born in Barwon Heads 23 years ago to Linda and Dave Diggins, Jesse and his sister had a carefree and happy life surrounded by art, music, clean air and coastal life.
He smiles as he remembers jetty jumping (whoops) and swimming at whim. He also fondly remembers working at the Bakery starting at 4am making vanilla slices and later
at The Heads in hospitality. Another much loved memory is kicking the footy with dad in the street (Grandview Pde.) and sneaking down to par 3 at the golf club to hit a few.
Nina and Laurie, Jesses grandparents lived next door (the white house in Hitchcock Ave. with the beautiful Secret Garden) and he and Nina would spend hours watching
the cricket together.
At Deakin university, Jesse completed his BA in Psychology and went on to honors, his thesis,
Family Violence and Association with Alcohol. He is currently doing his Masters in Educational
and Developmental Psychology to be completed in about eight months. (Im finding it hard to
remember that this gentle, thoughtful young man is only 23!)
Jesse works with homeless youth, almost all from broken homes. Often, its a classic case where
theres been a step-parent who doesnt get along with the teen and an ultimatum is given. The
teens find themselves out in the world without life skills or money.
Thats where youth workers like Jesse become involved. Guiding them toward shelter, finishing
their education, learning social skills and most importantly keeping them safe.
Hes a big brother to many young people and keeps in touch with some of the ones whove moved
forward in life. We chat about the, often broken, young people he works with and the importance of
gaining their trust.
Fortunately, there are many successes.
Jesse recently became engaged to occupational therapist Holly who grew up in Anglesea and they
celebrated with friends & family at the Secret Garden. They eventually plan to settle and build close
to his parents in Barwon Heads. Family is very important to Jesse and Holly.

We were sharing with our son "Billy" the importance of community, ways in which we could
support others, and what this might look like. Billy began to think about all of the
opportunities he has himself and identified that some children might not have access to
these same opportunities. Billy loves playing sport and it is an important part of his weekly
activities. He has felt the support, made friendships that a sporting environment gives, and
shared with us that it "would be cool" if other children had access to play
competition/recreational sport. He asked why cant we help pay the fees so kids can play
competition sport, I play sport and I see some kids on the side lines watching, it doesnt
seem fair just because their mum and dad cant afford it, they miss out
And so the concept for a community project was born - giving children access to being
involved in a team environment, feeling the support of community, the friends made, the
self-confidence, belief in themselves, and a chance to display their skills (and learn new
ones). Who knows there could be the next gold medallist that may have never been given
an opportunity.
Terindah Estate.
After a meeting with Barwon Child, Family & Youth to share our vision, they extended their
branch to incorporate a structure within their program, to help families by offering a
'sponsorship' in recreation or competition sport.
To create such opportunities requires funding! These funds will be raised by fundraising and
donations, and in the future from the sale of second hand sporting goods. For now, direct
donations to Barwon Child, Youth & Family will be our main source of income to support the
families/children.

In sad news, Wotarn, the beautiful Australian Barn Owl that has featured in many of Emma Hack's artwork, has
recently passed away. In memory we will feature him in a new release from Emma Hack along with three other
wonderful pieces. For those of you who have one of Emma's pieces featuring Wotarn all the more reason to
treasure them.

ABOUT THE SURFCOAST CENTUARY
The Surf Coast Century is a spectacular 50km and 100km ultramarathon along Victorias Surf Coast and wildflower hinterland, taking place on Saturday September 3rd, 2016.
This incredible race, starting and finishing in Anglesea, takes runners on an extraordinary journey below towering sea cliffs, along remote beaches and along twisting single track.
As well as attracting many of Australias best runners, the Surf Coast Century also has
a great reputation as the ideal event for those tackling their first ultra marathon due to
the accessible course, support services and easy logistics, and the incredible energy
around the course from supporters, other runners and event officials.
The winners of the Surf Coast Century 100km solo event will automatically be titled
the Australian 100km Trail Running Champion, under the auspices of the Australian
Ultra Running Association (AURA).
It is expected that nearly 1,000 runners will be part of the 2016 Surf Coast Century
across the 100km solo, 50km solo and the 100km relay team events
Competitors can choose between 100km and 50km solo ultra marathons, and a
100km relay (team of 2 or 4). Entries are now open. The Surf Coast Century is proudly
presented by Rapid Ascent, in association with La Sportiva, Evo, Percutane, Hammer
Nutrition, Physio Health, Cycle Cover and the Surf Coast Shire, and charity partners
One in Five.
For more information or to enter, head to surfcoastcentury.com.au
Calling for Volunteers

We'll also provide snacks and lunch on the day and allocate each volunteer a job
description, team leader and any equipment needed for your role. And we

WHAT'S COOKING AT
THE LOBSTER POT?
HELP NEEDED TO
CONTROL 28,800 STICKY
FINGERS
Yes, that's right - The Lobster Pot
might look like a sleepy green shed in
the At The Heads carpark, but over the
summer just gone, dedicated,
enthusiastic and sometimes
exhausted volunteers guarded
precious touch-tank critters from the
prodding fingers of 3,600 visitors
(28,800 fingers and 7,200 thumbs to
be precise).
The Barwon Estuary Heritage Centre (to use
its official title) is crammed full of cultural
artefacts (aboriginal, ship-wreck and early
town history) and natural history (fossils, birds,
plants and animals) all there to educate and
entertain locals and visitors alike. Then there
are those treasured little fish, urchins, crabs,
snails and sea-stars that need a bit of
protecting from fingers and thumbs.
So if running after a pesky golf ball is
becoming a bit boring and the thought of
squeezing into that clammy wetsuit is totally
tedious then why not lend us a hand not only
are you guaranteed to learn something new,
but you'll probably make a friend or three
along the way.
To connect with the adventures of The
Lobster Pot drop into the Barwon Coast
office or call Maddie Glynne (5254 1118).

OUR ENVIRONMENT:
BARWON ESTUARY PROJECT
The Barwon Estuary Project is an initiative of the
Barwon Heads Sustainability Group (BHSG), a subgroup of the Barwon Heads Community Arts Garden
Inc. BHSG conducts projects to enhance the local
environment and its sustainability.
This local community project aims to increase
knowledge and appreciation of the biodiversity and
fragility of the Barwon Estuary. The project team is
calling for participants to record estuary observations
online or in a diary, attend workshops, guided walks and
expert talks, and contribute to a community publication.
As residents and visitors develop a communal
understanding of the estuary and become more skilled
in sharing their learning and observations via a range of
communication strategies, the community will be more
motivated and able to collaboratively initiate practical
and innovative conservation activities using the
infrastructure and experience of existing groups such as
Barwon Estuary Watch, Barwon Coast and Barwon

BALLOONS
Again recently we experienced a cluster of balloons in

DOG ON BEACHES
Once again we are experiencing incidents from dogs
interacting with our wildlife. This week we saw a Ring-tail
Possum be chased from its habitat into the Barwon
estuary to escape being potentially killed by a dog. We
have dog control orders in place to not only protect the
community but our precious wildlife. Please note our dog
control orders allowing dogs off-leash along sections of
our coastline do not come into effect until 1st May. We are
experiencing a high number of dog walkers not
complying with the regulations. Also note the Barwon
Bluff Marine Sanctuary is a NO DOG ZONE all year
round.

TENNIS CLUB
It is never too late to get into tennis! While I started
playing at the age of 8 when my parents gave me a
tennis racquet for Christmas, tennis is a lifelong sport
that can be enjoyed by people of almost any age. It's
also something you never forget once you learn.

JUNIORS
We're 5 weeks into our winter tennis season and we
have 4 junior teams playing competition, with 2 girls and
2 boys teams, and it's great to see a number of those that
began their tennis journey last summer pick up their
racquets again for winter comp. All teams have enjoyed
some wins, with a couple3 of the teams looking like they
may be dominant forces in their respective sections. For
anyone with kids considering playing tennis over
summer, now is the time to start thinking about lessons
especially for third term (contact Essential Tennis Ph
52456603) or pop down on a Saturday morning and
check out the competition. A grading day will be held for
all juniors in late August.
SENIOR
Winter senior competition is represented by 2 teams:
mixed in section 3 and a men's team in section 9. Early in
the season has seen the mixed have some promising
wins and sitting 4th on the ladder. The young mens
brigade in section 9 have done well with 2 convincing
wins and are in a strong position at third on the ladder.
MIDWEEK
It's finals time for midweek ladies. On Tuesday 31st May
four of the six midweek teams will be gearing up to play
in the preliminary finals! Hoping for a great outcome and
and four premiership wins on grandfinal day, 7th June.
Sections 6,8,9 and 10 are the competing teams best of
luck ladies! A big end of season celebration is planned
for Grand Final night 7th June at the BHP.
A new season of winter midweek will commence in July.
It is likely that we will have 5 teams, but due to our
midweek ladies tendency to fly north during the winter
months we are always in need of new players
permanent and emergency. The spirit of midweek ladies
tennis is fabulous and we are fortunate to have such a
great network of players. Big thanks to team captains for
the organization of your teams during the season. A
huge thank you to Maz McIntosh who does a fantastic
job as midweek ladies representative. Contact Maz on
0409405044 for all midweek enquiries.
