ALDINGA BAY RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION

Dear Reader,

The dust has settled on another busy tourist season in the

area.

Despite doubts, right up until the last minute, from some of us, the Snapper Point redevelopment was completed in time

for the Tour Down Under. Congratulations to all involved

from council - designers, workers and contractors. It took

quite a few days of dawn to dust labour at the end but they did it!

Now we have our public toilet (at last!), childrens playground and not one but two gazebos with seating and a barbeque area. We even have a watered lawn area, drinking

fountain and doggy dish.

The only disappointment is the loss of the metal snapper an artist had made years ago, which had adorned the old

pergola. The coral-like decorations on the pergolas are a nice

touch with the reef adjacent.

Congratulations must go to the ABBTA (Aldinga Bay Business & Tourism Association) for another well run Tour

Down Under festival this year at the same venue.

The Australia Day breakfast was another outstanding success. Since ABRA started it in 2006, we have been

regularly giving out approximately 500 hot breakfasts. This

year we set a new record with 630 given out, although unfortunately, some of the latecomers had to be satisfied

with bacon & cereals as everything else had run out.

Queue delays were also disappointing this year due to the

unexpected numbers combined with an increase in wind affecting the barbeques. Next year an extra barbeque and

wind breaks will be employed.

The issue is 40 pages again this month although we are

running short of advertising revenue and it may have to be

reduced next month, meaning less room for your articles and stories.

I hope you enjoy the issue.

Green waste and cardboard / paper - Environmental

Protection Authority (EPA) legislation bans all councils

state wide from sending these materials to landfill. As of 1 September 2012 computers and televisions will

also be part of this ban. Therefore these materials can no

longer be accepted as part of our hard waste collection. The collection point is the Southern Waste Resource

Management on Bakewell Road Seaford Rise (the

Council dump off South Road N of the bridge). There is no cost. All you need to do is take your Ewaste

to the appropriate tip and they will direct you to the

Ewaste section.

You leave your stuff near two containers and exit the tip depositing the card they issue you with. This card will

take you off their computer.

This can be done any day of the week.

Fluorescent light tubes (this includes Compact

Fluorescent lights now widely being used to replace

incandescent globes) contain mercury.

If disposed of in landfill (through your garbage bin) this

can leach into the soil and water table with disastrous

results.

They should be disposed of properly through recycling.

Do not put them in your rubbish bin. Collection points

are available at Mitre 10 stores and the Willunga

Environment Centre.

AUSTRALIA DAY BREAKFAST HIGHLIGHT

Once again the School for Dogs Aldinga Bay enjoyed

showing off to the spectators at the Australia Day Break-

fast at Symonds Reserve.

A short display of the end result of training your dog with

us and most of all the Agility display was very popular.

Children enjoyed inter-acting with the dogs and petting them after the display.

PAINTING THE CROWN Although it started off fairly damp the weather cleared

about 10am and we quickly got underway.

The Willunga Hill Art Group has always been involved in

painting of the Crown every year and I as coordinator would like to thank all the Willunga Hill Art Members

who took the time to come and help - Hanneke, Mel,

Lynn, Brigeen, Lucy and Cathy.

We would also like to thank Craig James and his crew

from Onkaparinga Council for their time and also for

supplying paint and brushes! So when the race is underway and the helicopters fly

overhead panning with cameras and a glimpse of the

crown is picked up on the screen.........it will be a proud

moment for all of us to think even in a small way we have helped make this TDU another memorable one.

Seeking volunteers

for Secchi Disk monitoring.

Clear water in our Gulf is vital for swimming safely and

marine-life especially seagrass, which underpins our fisheries and marine ecosystems.

In 2012, the Friends of Gulf St Vincent initiated a project

to help the community monitor the clarity our Gulfs coastal waters, using secchi disks. These disks are simply

lowered into the ocean until they are no longer visible.

This distance is known as the secchi depth and is an

indication of the waters turbidity.

The Friends of Gulf St Vincent have received funding

from the Adelaide and Mt Lofty Ranges Natural

Resources Management Board to purchase more Secchi Disks and increase the number of sampling sites. This

will help to generate a more complete picture of turbidity

around the gulf and detect changes in water quality over time.

Ideally, we are looking

for volunteers who can

take samples on a regular basis, and they

will need to be able to

take samples on a secure structure over

relatively deep water,

such as a jetty or boat.

So far, volunteers have

recorded secchi depth

measurements as low

as 60cm at Henley Beach, which is

startling as secchi depth

readings of under 1.2m are generally considered unsuitable for swimming, to over 7m at the

clearer waters of Port Noarlunga.

If this sounds like something you, your community group or local school would be interested in, please visit:

www.friendsofgulfstvincent.org.au

or contact Mel Rees at [email protected]

MORE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS.

Why is it that no matter what colour bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have ma-terialized?

Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

On January 20th 1915, the Opening of the Railway to Willunga was carried out by the then Governor of

S.A. Sir Henry Galway.

This was celebrated in Willunga on January 20th this year by a group of National Trust and other

interested towns folk, some in vintage dress who

walked from the Courthouse to the ringing of bells

and whistles, which sounded like the old steam locomotive that would have pulled the first train.

The first train carried the Vice Regal couple and

500 school children.

To add to the atmosphere the Anglican and Roman

Catholic Churches rang their bells and members of

the McDonald family drove their vintage cars built between 1913 & 1915 up and down the High Street,

all meeting up at the Railway Precinct for a picnic

lunch.

Deemed unprofitable, the line was closed in 1969.

Many of the older residents have fond memories of

the long commute into the city for work or school.

The National Trust has curated a special display of railway memorabilia at the Old Courthouse &

Police Station, 61 High St. Willunga. The Railway

and other Transport of the era will be our theme for History Month in May.

Further events will be advertised in the local press.

See adjacent Courthouse Advertisement for opening times of the Museum.

FROM WOE TO GO!

Katrina with Sean

The difference between a hopeless woe (too many troubles) and go (going on with a normal life) was an unexpected encounter through an unexpected source.

Sean had some typical consequences to his parents separating. From the age of 12 (when the family split) he

went downhill fast and by age 16 was seriously addicted as a heavy drug user. No surprise that he and the judicial

system didnt quite see eye to eye over his choice of life style to support his habits.

Living with his mum and older brother, he didnt see his father for 10 years and definitely didnt want to. But after Seans 27-year-old mate died and he saw no way out, it was his father who amazingly bailed him out of trouble and took him to live with him. Sean couldnt get over someone trusting him and giving him a go. But just because his father was now a preacher was no reason to go to church thats the last place Sean wanted to go. Thats where they brain-wash you and get your

money.

Yet partly from curiosity he went along to hear his dad

preach - and had an encounter with One he didnt know even existed. Sean suddenly realised that this God knew everything about him, and on 15th January 2005 he made

a genuine commitment of his life to follow Christ. He

declares that after a following Planet Shakers' meeting he

totally lost the need for drugs, cigarettes or gambling!

Sean went on to help out in the churchs youth group and met and married a lovely girl, Katrina. Now healed of all

addiction and serious hurts, he readily agrees he got the

sort of brain washing a lot of us could do with.

Aldinga Beach C.F.S Rescue

Mitsubishi Canter 2006 seats 6 Rego WVP936.

Aldinga Beach C.F.S has a dedicated Rescue appliance.

This appliance is fully equipped with rescue tools such as heavy duty spreaders & rescue cutters that use a hydraulic

pump. These tools are used to cut a car to remove panels

so that we can extricate victims from vehicles that have been involved in an accident. All of our Rescue C.F.S volunteers are extensively

trained in the use of these tools and to stabilize vehicles.

Aldinga Beach C.F.S responds to Motor vehicle accidents

in the Aldinga area and also into our surrounding areas.

Accidents can range from a minor accident where all is

required is to ensure fuel/oil leaks are cleaned up to major accidents where the use of stabilisation is required and the

use of the spreaders and cutters are required to enable

victims to be removed from the vehicle.

Aldinga Beach Rescue also has on board Medical oxygen

and an extensive 1st aid kit. Our rescue crew has been

trained in senior 1st aid and advanced resuscitation so if we are on scene of an accident before the South

Australian Ambulance Service, we can start 1st aid

treatment of victims until the paramedics arrive.

Real proof the face of Lawn Bowls is changing, and that

the sport is indeed a game for all ages, was shown in the

weekly Pennant Competition recently at Aldinga Bay Bowling Club.

One of the Clubs most senior members, Doug Johnsson and Connor a very young member of McLaren Vale

Bowling club pitted their respective skills against one

another in the Division six weekly Pennant Competition

at Aldinga.

Doug, now approaching his 90th year, has been bowling

for many years, and says, I get a great deal of enjoy-ment from the sport, and especially including bowling at

NightOwls with my grandsons."

Bowling keeps Doug active both physically and men-

tally, and he enjoys the camaraderie of fellow bowlers as well.

Connor, on the other hand has been bowling for just a

short time, and along with his close friend Dylan is al-

ready showing some very real potential on the green. Connor who also plays other sports, says he really enjoys

bowling in Pennant competition because its something he can do every Saturday with his Dad, and he also likes

the challenges bowling brings.

Once regarded as a sport for older people, lawn bowls is

now attracting many younger players national and in-ternational championships are regularly won by younger

adults.

Young people and the not so young are encouraged to come down to Aldinga Bay Bowling Club any Tuesday,

Thursday or Saturday to try bowls whilst the warmer weather is still with us - taking advantage of the com-plimentary coaching and loan bowls offered to interested

new bowlers.

President of Aldinga Bay Bowling Club John Clissitt can

be contacted on 0417 820 596 for more information.

Is your pet protected against Heartworm?

In recent times, more and more pets are being diagnosed with Heartworm infection. This is not because Heartworm has recently

escalated in our area - it is because more pets are being tested for

Heartworm infection and newer tests are more sensitive!

Heartworm is well proven to exist in South Australia - there have

been over half a dozen positive cases in the last 6 months alone.

Dont let your dog become infected by Heartworm. Mosquitoes transmit the Heartworm parasite from an infected pet

to another cat or dog - and mosquitoes can migrate over several

kilometers. Plenty of distance to find many dogs or cats! We

have an abundance of mosquitoes in our area, lots of cats and

dogs, and also foxes (which have been shown to carry

Heartworm as well). Click here to see the Heartworm life cycle. Heartworm disease can cause congestive heart disease - (the adult

Heartworm lives in the large veins and arteries around the heart).

Symptoms can include tiredness and lethargy, coughing,

laboured breathing, and in some cases death.

We strongly recommend preventing Heartworm infection

through a simple once-a-year injection. The cost for 12-week-

old puppies (starting age for Proheart injections) is $25. The

cost for older dogs is dependent on body weight.

Applying Advocate monthly can prevent heartworm infection

in cats. We are currently running a promotion - Get one

month for FREE when purchasing a 6-month box of

Advocate (7 months worth of Advocate for the price of 6).

Compliments of Willunga Veterinary Services

What is Resveratrol and why its daily consumption is important?

Every day our bodies accumulate toxins, every day..no matter how hard we try to maintain our essential level consumptions, our body is not an everlasting engine and especially as we grow older we need vitamin

support. Free radicals that come from toxins kill our cells and damage our DNA which means cells dont grow and the chances of becoming ill increase and our bodies

ability to fight illness diminishes. Stresses, tiredness, pollution, lack of sleep are companion to our busy lives So, is there a solution?

Yes there is.

Resveratrol is the solution but where do we get it? Red wine contains grape seed extract. Grape is such a

tasty and sweet antioxidant especially if we add to our

fruit plates Cherry, Blueberry, Pomegranate and Aloe we believe that consumption of these will keep us healthier.

However there is scientific evidence that we would need

to drink 80 glasses of red wine to obtain the necessary level of antioxidants in our body within a day. Sounds

impossible and not exactly healthy? Absolutely, who would be able to drink this amount of wine a day and be

able to function? But what if all these ingredients, these toxins fighters are combined into one safe and delicious sealed small pack?

Its called Reserve! Lets have a look at what it does: 1. Antioxidants resist oxidative stress and premature

aging 2. Anthocyanins support healthy cardiovascular function

3

3. Essential fatty acids assist in digestive tract function 4.

4. Reinforces a healthy immune system 5. 5. Helps maintain a healthy metabolism

6. Helps boost energy

7. Supports healthy joint function 8. Positive cap-e test results indicate that RESERVE penetrates and protects live cells from oxidative

damage* 9. Independent Lab tests confirm each packet of Reserve

contains over 185 mg of RESVERATROL.

Personally I consume Reserve daily and I love the results. Youth Enhancing Technology never tasted so good!

The Get Together Club A new club has started in Aldinga Beach for adults with a

disability and their families.

The group encourages friendship, fun, connection and

inspiration.

It is the only group of its kind in the southern area.

The first meeting held at the Aldinga Life Care Hall was a

great success, with families sharing a meal, playing games, and getting to know each other.

A variety of activities are planned for the monthly group

including singing, painting, puppet making, and guest chefs. Ideas for activities are welcome and encouraged.

The Get Together Club has received a Community Grant

from the City of Onkaparinga and is also supported by Minda Incorporated, Carer Support and Disability

SA. New members are always welcome.

The Get Together Club is held on the first Friday of each

month, at the Aldinga Life Care Hall, Pridham Blvd,

Aldinga Beach from 6.30 8.30pm.

For bookings call 8433 9555

Vinnies Freds Van service, which offers a free, warm, nutritious meal to men, women and children who are

doing it tough in our community, will commence serving people in the Aldinga region from 20th March 2015.

Freds Van will operate one service a week from the Aldinga Community Centre, which has agreed to allow Freds Van to operate from their premises. Freds Van estimates that they will serve approximately 30-40 people

each week - half of which will be young children. This will be the first service in the southern region which provides

meals to people experiencing disadvantage.

Aldinga was determined as the newest location for

Freds Van after aid agencies in the region highlighted the need to the St Vincent de Paul Society (SA). The

Onkaparinga Council has also been working closely with

the Society for some time to provide the Freds Van style service within its council area.

Freds Van is seeking volunteers from the local area to help with their new Aldinga service. Volunteers carry out a range of duties including food preparation and food

service. Freds Van is also keen to discuss with local businesses who are interested in donating goods or food on

a regular or ad-hoc basis. St Vincent de Paul Society (SA) State President,

Brian Spencer said, Vinnies is really concerned about the impact of current cost of living pressures. There is no question that our economic climate is undermining the

ability of many South Australians to fully look after

themselves in their local communities. This new Freds Van service will go a long way to ensuring we are able to better assist men, women and children who are doing it

tough in the Aldinga area. Freds Van supports some of the most vulnerable people in our community who experience a range of issues

such as homelessness, social isolation and unemployment.

People forced to live rough can come to Freds Van for a hot, nutritious meal, blankets, donated books, social

connection and referrals to other community service and

Government agencies. The service provides nutritious

meals and take home hampers with the support of its 520 volunteers.

Each year Freds Van helps in excess of 25,000 South Australians almost half of which are children. Brian Spencer continues whilst we have volunteers in the southern suburbs working to give a hand up to peo-

ple seeking assistance from us, this new Freds Van service is another way we are able to better support the commu-

nity. If you are able to donate a few hours of your time

once a month please consider volunteering with us today. To support Freds Van so that Vinnies can continue to as-sist men, women and children who are doing it tough,

please call Freds Van on 8112 8720.
