EDITORIAL
Welcome to our October edition of The Kentish Voice.
Kentish can be very proud of the achievements of a number
of our locals. I am sure that only a small proportion of these
achievements come across my desk. When they do, I am
privileged to bring them to the attention of our readers so
they can share the recognition of your efforts. In this edition
read about the high achievement of two of our junior cattle
handlers. We would also take our hat off to one of our local
identities who tackled a challenge that many of us would
never dream of attempting, let alone successfully! Well done
Geneen Duff for a marvellous effort in the City to Surf,
conquering heartbreak hill in eleven minutes!
With the ever increasing support of our local advertisers
I hope to be able to include more and more news and
accolades for our many talented local residents who quietly
achieve great heights in many fields of endeavour. I especially
thank the advertisers, and our readers who are supporting
our advertisers by buying their goods and services. It all
keeps our local communities prosperous, happy and healthy!
Enjoy the annual “Oktoberfest” event at Seven Sheds
Page 2
Brewery and Meadery at Railton. There is free entry to a
falily-friendly event provided by one of our excellent local
businesses.
During October we ask that you assist both the Sheffield/
Railton Community Bank® Project by completing the
Community Survey for Bendigo Bank (see page 4 and 5);
and by responding to the request for recommendations from
residents regarding additional health services that would
be beneficial to the Kentish Region from the University of
Tasmania in collaboration with our Council (see page 3).
The Community Bank® Survey will be in your mailboxes in
from 6th October. Please fill them out as it is the next vital
step in the establishment of our new community-owned
Bank which will help support community organisations and
projects over the years to come.
The University of Tasmania survey will provide vital
information that will facilitate funding for additional health
services and/or facilities within our region. Your input is vital
for this project also.
This is also the month that we, as residents, have the
opportunity to vote for our Mayor, Deputy Mayor and all
The Kentish Voice - October 2014
Kentish Councillors. This is the first time that all positions
on Council have been declared vacant at the same time.
Elected members will be your representatives for the next
four years. At the time of printing the candidates have not
been declared by the Electoral Commission but several
candidates have provided advertisements for their candidacy
and some information that may be helpful for you in
deciding who to vote for when the ballot papers are delivered
to your mailbox in the second half of the month. Our
Council is responsible for so many aspects that affect our
daily life in Kentish – but you are responsible for putting the
right people in those positions!
Oktoberfest
Sunday 5 October 12 noon-4pm
• Free Entry
• Live music with You3
• Seven Sheds ales on tap

In each edition I will have a “Community Question”. I
hope that you, our residents of Kentish, will provide replies
for the next edition where they will be called “Community
Comments”. You will find the “Community Question” on
Page 3 and the from the November edition the “Community
Comments” will be found elsewhere in the edition. Also, if
you have any suggestions for a question please feel free to
email or phone.

COMMUNITY QUESTION
“What do you believe are
the most important issues
for our new Council to
address?”
KENTISH COMMUNITY
HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT
In recent years the Kentish Council has spearheaded significant investment in health services through
the development of the Kentish Health Care Centre and Precinct. This development presents an ideal
opportunity for Council to engage the residents of the municipality about the broader health needs of our
community.
In order to better understand community needs Council has engaged the services of the University of Tasmania’s Centre for
Rural Health (CRH) to undertake a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) of the Kentish Municipality.
The CHNA is jointly funded by Council and Tasmania Medicare Local (TML). A Project Advisory Committee has been
convened comprising representatives from Council, Tandara Lodge Community Care Inc, the Sheffield School, Glenhaven
Family Care and the CRH Research Team to support project activities. The project seeks to engage residents of the whole
Kentish Municipality.
In order to capture the voice of the community, residents will be invited to complete a survey and/or participate in a focus
group where they will be provided with an opportunity to present their views and ideas on a range of social, economic
and environmental factors that impact on the their health and that of their community. All information received from the
community will be treated anonymously and in accordance with strict UTAS ethical guidelines.
The information in the CHNA will enable needs to be highlighted and gaps to be identified. Without a professional needs
assessment like this, government organizations will not make funding available for new services. Therefore to enable the
greatest chance to attract more health related services to Kentish the Project Advisory Committee encourage as many people
as possible to become involved.
Residents of Kentish will be kept updated on the progress of the study through regular briefings.
The study will be undertaken between August 2014 and March 2015 and will conclude with a presentation of a report to
council.
If residents have any questions about the study they are welcome to contact Darrin Cunningham, Economic and Community
Development Manager at the Kentish Council via email [email protected] or phone 6491 0200 or they may contact
the CHNA Project officer, Alison Wild via email [email protected]

JULIE HARGREAVES
CANDIDATE FOR COUNCILLOR
I want Kentish to be a great place to work as much as it is to
live or to visit – that means growing the opportunities for local
businesses to grow local jobs.
I want a solid economy in Kentish based on what we grow and
make as much as from the views we sell to visitors – that means
growing opportunities for agriculture and primary production
as well as for tourism.
I want Kentish to continue to be a focal point for arts in all
its forms – artists inspire us, challenge us and connect us
culturally.
I want Kentish to be powered from abundant renewable
sources and for the natural assets of Kentish to be enduring climate change and how we adapt to it will shape what we pass
on to the next generation.
I want Kentish to continue to be a community that cares and
shares, whether a pot luck dinner or to lend a hand when it’s
needed - that means facilitating the volunteers and voluntary
organisations to do what they do best.
While I will be only one voice out of 9, if elected as Councillor
I will do my best for Kentish and the Kentish community and
these are the values that guide me.

COMMUNITY BANK® PROJECT

OF THE PROJECT- O COMPLETE THE SURVEY FORM
Please take between 2 and 5 minutes to complete the
Community Survey Form for the SHEFFIELD/RAILTON
COMMUNITY BANK® Project when it is delivered by post
between 6th and 10th October. It only takes the time to boil a
kettle! We need your suvey to show your support.
We want to receive 1500 surveys so please do not leave it to
someone else!
After reaching all our targets during the Pledging phase of our
Project the Community Survey conducted by an independent
Survey Company for Bendigo Bank is the next step in
establishing our very own Community Bank® which will
provide funds for local community projects, and pay dividends
to local shareholders.
The envelope that will be delivered by Australia Post to your
letterbox or Post Office Box contains both a personal survey
form and a business survey form. If you have a business we
invite you to complete this form. Please also complete the
personal form. There are only 12 questions on the Personal
Survey Form, and 11 questions on the Business Survey Form.
Survey Forms are anonomous. You just tick the boxes. There is a
reply paid envelope to return your form or forms to AFS.
The Community Survey forms can also be completed on-line at:
www.afsbendigo.com.au/feasibility-surveys.php or scan the QR
Code to complete the survey on your mobile device or smart
phone.. If you complete the Survey online please pass your
mailed form to a neighbour or friend.
Your responses remain anonymous and are collated by AFS, the
independent survey company commissioned by the Sheffield/
Railton Community Bank® Project Steering Committee.
A summary of the responses will also provide a guide to the
inaugural Board as to the banking hours that will best serve our
community.
Thank you if you have already shown your support so far for the
Project by either pledging to buy shares, or by banking with the
Sheffield/Railton Community Bank® already. Even if you have
not either pledged or commenced banking with our branch of
the Bendigo Bank you will be assisting the establishment of the
branch by completing the Community Survey and returning it
in the envelope provided.
If posting the Survey Form is difficult for you please do not
hesitate to contact one of the Steering Committee who will
collect the form for you and return the sealed envelope to AFS
on your behalf.
There is still time to either pledge or increase your pledge to
buy shares in the Sheffield/Railton Community Bank®. You can
pledge to buy as little as 500 $1.00 shares up to a total of 10%
of the total capital raised. Please contact one of the Steering
Committee members listed above if you would like to pledge or
increase your pledge.

STAYING CONNECTED
WITH TIM WILSON
Hello again,
New iPhone - Apple has made some major announcements
lately. There is a new iPhone announced. The iPhone 6 is
coming. There is a second iPhone 6 model labelled the “Plus”.
The Plus is a larger phone and more expensive. Both phones
have an improved camera and (apparently) better battery life.
Now the price…….$869 for the 4.7 inch screen version and
$999 for the 5.5 inch screen version. Hmm not cheap.
Apple Watch - Another first for Apple is the announcement
of their first watch. It’s pretty different to a normal watch. It’s
a computer on your wrist. You can use it to send email, texts,
look at photos, monitor your health, cook your toast. I made up
the toast bit. You are best to have a look your self. http://www.
apple.com/au/watch/ The price? Unknown as yet. A Casio from
the chemist will no doubt be cheaper.
Todoist - Are you looking for an online todo list? One that
you can access from different locations and different devices?
I recommend todoist.com After some rigorous testing I
have found this todo list impressive. There is a free and paid
service. The premium service is around $30 per year (but is not
compulsory). So put it on your todo list to have a look at www.
todoist.com It works well.
Feedly - Have a stack of websites you visit regularly? Why not
TIM WILSON
CANDIDATE FOR COUNCILLOR &
DEPUTY MAYOR
Kentish Council has worked well together over the recent term.
The council has listened to the community and generally made
decisions it deemed best for the community as a whole. I have
enjoyed being part of it.
I have been fortunate to have worked closely with the Mayor
during the recent term. Kentish has had a strong and unified
leadership team, working together respectfully. This has helped
form a solid and stable council.
What are some things I achieved? Following a ratepayer
suggestion I have put Gowrie Park on Council's agenda to
investigate its potential for re-establishment as a living village.
I pushed council not to pay the asking price for the Sheffield
infant’s school, we were fortunate to attain it for one dollar. I
pushed the implementation of a discount on rates when paid in
full. I have successfully helped some (not all) frustrated residents
who have sought assistance in dealing with the Council.
Where to now? I will get behind the establishment of a skate
park in Railton if the township does. I will do what I can to
support the Sheffield/Railton community bank establishing an
ATM in Railton. Council should continue to do what it can
to help see the re-establishment of a shop in the township of
Wilmot. Kentish Council needs to make the way smoother for
those who want to settle and develop employment opportunities
in our municipality.
I need your support to continue in the role as Deputy Mayor on
Kentish Council.

Well my Optus trial is over. We have parted company. Why?
Reception was the key problem. Great reception around
Sheffield, poor in Railton and really poor in parts of Devonport.
If the wind was blowing the right way, reception was ok!
Anyway, until Optus improves its reception, I won’t be trying
them again. Sometimes you just have to try things. Farewell

GARDENING WITH TODD MILES
OCTOBER- BEST MONTH OF ALL IN THE GARDEN.
This month of the year is one of the most satisfying for
gardeners.
In the Vegetable garden, you are watching all the seeds you
planted last month and have been carefully nurturing, sprout
and take off. Your beetroot, sweet corn and silver beet seedlings
are almost ready to plant out.
The tomato seedlings you saved from last year are just about
ready to pot on so that by the end of October they will be ready
to plant out. Watch the weather warnings for potential frosts
though and be ready to protect them. We can get good frosts as
late as November in Sheffield. Remember also to handle these
seedlings carefully, their stems are very fragile, and plant them
deeply, bringing the soil up to cover part of the lower stem.
Once they start to flower is the time to make sure the have
plenty of water and food, and don’t forget to give them a little
potash every few weeks once they are established.
In the bed you have set aside for growing French Beans and
climbing beans, now is the time to work in some well rotted
manure. You would have remembered during the winter that
beans don’t like acid soil, and dug some lime into the bed. By
the middle of November, when you plant out your bean seeds,
the bed will be just right and you should produce a wonderful
crop of beans.
While you have been working in your vegetable garden you have
been admiring the blossom on your plum, nectarine and almond
trees. You will have checked that the tape you wound around
their trunks about a half a metre from the ground is still in place
to deter those nasty coddling moths. A few handfuls of sheep
manure around the base of them at this time will encourage
them to work hard to produce a bountiful crop of fruit.
In the Ornamental Garden, as you admire your roses starting
to produce all that shiny new growth, give them a feed and
examine them closely for any sign of the dreaded aphids. I have
noticed a few around already this year and a spray of detergent

mixed with oil was enough to get rid of them.
At the end of the month it is a good time to prune back those
trees and shrubs that have finished flowering, particularly the
natives, e.g. acacias, banksias, eriostemons and callistemon. If
you prune back the flower bearing stems now it helps them get
through the summer and encourages new growth ready for next
year’s spring flowering.
Now is the time to visit your nursery if you want to choose a
new camellia, azalea or rhododendron, banksia, leptospermum
or grevillea because they are out in flower. If you forgot to preorder your roses, and have found a place in the garden that is
crying out for a spectacular, long flowering rose bush that never
seems to get black spot or any other nasties, try a Rugosa Rose,
I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
KENTISH GARDEN CLUB NEWS
What a busy start to Spring the
Garden Club has had. We held
our annual Daffodil & Spring
Flower Show over the weekend of 20 & 21 September, which
was a huge success. The weather was beautiful, and in all we
had over 450 people visit the show. The standard of entries in
both the Daffodil & Cut Flower sections was extremely high,
whilst entries in the Floral Art section clearly demonstrated
hidden talent within the local community. We would like to
thank everyone for making this show so successful and for the
support we received, particularly from the Kentish Council and
The Hub. A large number of local businesses also supported
the event through the donation of vouchers and products to be
used as prizes, and we would also like to thank them for their
wonderful and generous assistance. Of course we must also
mention our guest exhibitors at the show – Rhyllis Chambers
who spent the weekend delighting visitors with demonstrations
of her artwork, and Matt from Flame ‘n’ Plasma for his display
of metal artwork. For a full list of winners at the show as well as
sponsors, please visit our website.
With the warmer weather and longer days ahead, we will be
organising a number of outings to take place over the coming
months. Our first day trip has been organised to Wynyard on
Saturday 18 October. There are a number of gardens that we will
be visiting in the Wynyard area so it promises to be a great day
out. For further details on the day trip please visit our calendar
of events on our website or come to the next meeting.
Time to get back into the garden as this is one of the busiest
seasons with weeding, feeding, planting and mulching just some
of the things on the “to do” list. Come along to our monthly
meetings for gardening tips, hints and great ideas. And, if you
have a particular problem in your garden, you might just find
the answer you need!
Our next garden meeting will be on Thursday 9 October,
7.30pm at the Sheffield Town Hall. Prior to the meeting garden
club members are invited to visit Brett & Susie Coombs’ garden
from 6.30pm. If you would like further information about
anything please visit our website or contact myself on 0407 112
090. Happy gardening Cate Rejman Secretary,

The volunteers at the Wilmot Museum are delighted with the
much enlarged display space completed at the end of August
by local building contractor Shane Steers. Funding for the
extension was provided by The Tasmanian Community Fund
which allocated 77% of the cost in the recent grant round. The
remaining 23% of the cost came from the generosity of the local
community members and fund raising activities.
The Kentish Council has assisted the museum with funds to
provide for re-furbishing the original sawn timber floor that was
laid down in 1898 by Henry Buxton. The contrast between
the original sawn timber floor, that has an ancient repair job of
the bottom of a kerosene tin hammered over a hole in the floor,
and the modern hardwood floor in the new extension illustrates
the advances in timber treatments during the last hundred and
fifteen years.
The volunteers are engaged in completing a “Significance
Assessment” of a number of unique items in the collection. The
Roving Curator from Arts Tasmania is helping the volunteers in
the research and documentation of the significant items.
The volunteers are very busy preparing the displays according to
the themes identified in 2013 when the Roving Curator helped
them to develop the Collection Policy and Interpretation Plan.
The Wilmot Museum will be re-organized and open to the
public by mid-November. The official opening will be held
in late November. Community groups and bus tours will
be welcome to enjoy a guided tour of the Museum and
refreshments or lunch in Wilmot.

The Kentish Voice - October 2014
Kentish – A First for Eco-Driving Training
Kentish was the
first municipality
to take part in a
new eco-driving
training course
which is expected
to be rolled out to
other communities
soon. The course
was developed
by Sustainable
Living Tasmania as part of a Tasmanian “Earn Your Stars”
funded project to help people reduce their transport fuel use –
something that benefits the pocket as well as the environment.
Kentish Council employees were the first trainees to undertake
this new eco-driving training, which if the techniques are fully
adopted has the potential to save $4000 to $5000 per year on
Council transport fuel costs.
Eco-driving involves a few simple driving strategies along with
vehicle maintenance checks, which can make a big difference
on fuel use. These include reducing the amount of braking by
looking ahead and backing off the accelerator to slow down, as
well as checking tyre pressures regularly. Driving at 90kph rather
than 100kph can save 10% on your fuel use, but savings go up
to 23% if you are dropping your speed from 110kph to 90kph.
accurately calculate the fuel consumption of their vehicle as well
as finding the rpm on their tachometer that told them when the
engine was running at its optimal efficiency.
If you’re in the market for a new car, check out www.
greenvehicleguide.gov.au to check the fuel efficiency of different
models before you buy. AND, watch out for the return of Fuel
Freddy in coming months, as he’ll be sharing a few eco-driving
tips with readers of The Kentish Voice.
K.E.E.N.E.R was the instigator for the eco-driving project and
is keen to run further eco-driving training courses in Kentish in
the future – contact Shayn 0419 905482 to register your interest

POLICE REPORT
Term 4 of the school year has begun and the warmer
weather will have the kids out and about more frequently.
As road users we need to be switched on round the schools
and buses at pick-up and drop-off points. Parents should
be educating their children too around the dangers in and
around buses. We are all shared road users in a one way
or another and we all have responsibilities. Why not give
your child all the information you can to increase their
knowledge and hence increase their road safety awareness.
You are never too young to start learning.
The Kentish crime rate has returned to normal levels after
a recent spike. Hopefully August was a one off and we will
see these normal rates continue for the rest of the year.

As a long term resident of Kentish, it is my desire to serve
the people of this municipality as a councillor. It would be a
great honour to be part of the decision making process and
the future planning of our district. Through my experience as
a teacher and a senior staff member at the Sheffield School for

for 25 years where I was actively involved in overseeing major
developments at the school.
I believe Kentish is a beautiful place to live and it is important
that we work together to ensure sustainability within the
region, capitalise on our resources and encourage economic
development. I support resource sharing with the Latrobe

interests and have the abilities to handle the range of skills the
role requires.
I am committed to our cultural and environmental heritage,
independent and flexible to adapt to the changes we cannot yet
see. I will always evaluate decisions of Council through a prism
of social justice, equity, non-discrimination and a view towards
the rights of future generations.
With your support I will continue to represent you with
independence, good humour and intelligence.

PENNY LANE
CANDIDATE FOR COUNCILLOR & DEPUTY MAYOR
Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Penny Lane.
I am married to Dale, and our four legged children are Harris
and Ford, our loving and devoted Cavalier King Charles dogs.
Dale and I visited Kentish in 2002 as tourists, and fell instantly
in love with this glorious area. We realised this is where we
wanted to live forever. On return from holidays – packed the
suitcases, and arrived as new-Tasmanian’s in 2003.
I have been a Kentish resident for 11 years, and have enjoyed
being part of this wonderful diverse community through being
part of groups, committees, and volunteer roles that bring me in
touch with the heartbeat of Kentish.
ADVERTISEMENT
I have been a Kentish Councillor for the past 8 years, and
believe that now is the time to take on a fresh new challenge and
am asking for your number one vote as Deputy Mayor, as well as
Councillor.
I am approachable, and consider myself to be a ready listener
always endeavouring to relay issues and comments to Kentish
Council. I have an innate understanding of how hard it is for
small business/owner operators, and will constantly bring that
support of understanding to the Council table whilst I am there
to represent.
When filling in your ballot papers, and sending them in,
remember four words – VOTE ONE, PENNY LANE.

person who represents you when making decisions in
areas like local planning and development, recreational
space and the upkeep of your community. Voting at a
local government election provides you with an
opportunity to elect a person you believe can make the
best contribution to your community by being a mayor,
deputy mayor or councillor in your local government.

want. Talk to other people you know and encourage
them to vote too.

regularly parking over the footpath and obstructing the
thoroughfare of pedestrians. Motorists are reminded that
the Tasmanian Road Rules 2009 Regulation 198 states it
is an offence to obstruct access to and from a footpath or
driveway. If you require further information please
contact local Police.
COMMUNITY DISASTER RESILIENCE SCORECARD
Council is interested in assuring the highest possible level
of community resilience, should an emergency or disaster
strike. As a beginning step, it is important to identify our
current level of resilience, and those areas in which we
should take action.
To that end, we will be completing the Community
Disaster Resilience Scorecard, recently developed by the
Torrens Resilience Institute in partnership with the
National Emergency Management Committee. The
Scorecard is not a report to anyone outside our
community, nor will we be compared to other
communities: it is a tool for our use as we work together
towards resilience.
Expressions of interest are invited from a broad range of
community members to join the Kentish Council Disaster
Resilience Scorecard Working Group. Your commitment
would be participation in an orientation meeting, plus two
additional meetings over the next 6 -9 weeks. In addition
you may be asked to help locate important information
about our community between meetings.
If you have questions please contact Darrin Cunningham
on 64910200, who is co-ordinating the program.
Expressions of Interest may be addressed to Darrin
Cunningham, Community Disaster Resilience Scorecard,
PO Box 63, Sheffield, 7306 and close on Wed 15 October
2014.
THE BADGERS PUBLIC MEETING
Council is exploring the development of a world-class
mountain biking facility, primarily located on the eastern

a Master Plan for the facility and is keen to engage the
community in this process – particularly existing users of
The Badgers, Kimberleys Lookout, and the Forestry
Tasmania-managed area of forest that lies between
Railton and The Badgers ridgeline. This includes users of
the Tasmania Trail leg between Railton and Sheffield.
A public meeting will be held to address issues that may
arise from the development of a mountain bike facility in
this area. The date of the meeting is yet to be confirmed
but will be posted on the Kentish Council website
www.kentish.tas.gov.au in coming weeks. Please keep
an eye out for the date and venue.
KENTISH INNOVATION GROUP
Have you got an idea to improve Kentish?
Kentish Council has ratified a draft Economic
Development Strategy for 2014-19.

Economic Development Strategy is the development of a
“Kentish Innovation Group’’, comprising Kentish
ratepayers who are interested in the economic direction
of the municipality, or who have ideas for the
advancement of the municipality.
The Kentish Innovation Group will be an open forum at
which ideas can be tabled that have the potential to
contribute to the economic development of the
municipality. The Group will also have a key role in
advancing those ideas.
The first meeting of the Kentish Innovation Group will be
held at 7pm on Tuesday, October 21, at the Sheffield
Town Hall.

100 Years of Hydro: public exhibition
launched in Launceston
existed; the migrant workforce recruited to work on power
A travelling public exhibition telling the story of the Hydro over
the last 100 years opened in Launceston in August.
100 Years of Hydro is a dynamic, audio-visual, content-rich
exhibition portrays the past, present and possible future of the
Hydro through the fascinating stories of the people who built
the business.
“Hydro Tasmania began its life with a far-reaching dream and
continues to take the lead in renewable energy creation in
Australia,” said centenary program manager, Lara van den Berg.
“The business was created by ordinary people doing
extraordinary things that have changed the way we live and
contributed to development of Tasmania’s identity. This
exhibition tells the story of their achievements.”
The exhibition covers the entire Hydro story from construction
of the first power station, Waddamana, to the novel technologies
being used today. It has been designed to incorporate indoor
and outdoor interpretive elements, housed largely within a 40ft
custom-designed container but also making use of external
industrial frames.
“The story of the Hydro is the story of social change in
Tasmania,” Ms van den Berg said.
“Through the electricity generated by hydropower, the State’s
manufacturing and agriculture industries have flourished; Hydro
people built roads and created villages where none previously
Page 24
schemes shaped Tasmania’s culture; and our engineering and
technological breakthroughs have changed the way the world
approaches the challenge of generating energy.”
The free exhibition is part of the Hydro’s centenary program of
events and initiatives. It opened at the Queen Victoria Museum
and Art Gallery in Launceston where it is located near the main
entrance, and will run through to early October.
It is the first time The Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery
has featured a ‘pop-up’ exhibition at the Museum and are
delighted to be the first of four venues to host this bespoke
exhibition.
The exhibition will then travel to the West Coast for the
Queenstown Heritage and Arts festival from October 10-12.
The festival’s theme this year is the Power of Water.
Next stop will be Hobart from October 18 – 4 November, with
the exhibition to be located at Mawson Place next to the old
Marine Board building.
The exhibition will then travel to the Tarraleah village. The
site of the old Hydro village built for the construction of the
Tarraleah power station in the 1930 will be the exhibition’s
home for the foreseeable future.
Development of the exhibition has drawn on historical records,
personal memoirs, and Hydro Tasmania publications.
The Kentish Voice - October 2014
Staying Safe With Dogs In Our
Community
Dog in the back of a ute, in a car or truck. When
a dog is on the back of a ute or in a truck/car we should not
pay any attention to it. No looking and no talking. The dog
is looking after the truck/car and once again may bark or growl
saying “stay away”.
Last month we talked
about personal space
and the hazards of
walking up to any
dog – one you know
or one you do not
know. This month we
are going to expand by
looking at dogs in our community and how we can be stay safe
around them.
Dog behind a gate or fence. Never open a gate or climb
over a fence, even to get a ball that you may have kicked over
the fence. If there is a dog there, it is the dog’s job to look after
his yard and protect it. The dog will bark, it might get angry and
may try to bite. Never walk into a yard or even put our fingers
through the fence if there is a dog there.
Sometimes dogs will bite us if we don’t listen to what they are
trying to tell us. Even though we might want to say hello to
dogs (even our own dog) there are times when it is not safe to go
up and try to pat them. Avoid touching, patting or showing any
attention to a dog in the situations below:
Mum with her pups. A mother with puppies will do
anything to make sure her babies are safe and no harm comes to
them. She won’t like people or children coming up to her and
her pups. Stay away from a mother and her babies. When the
puppies are older ask the owner if you can pat them.
Dog that is sleeping. Never walk up to a sleeping dog
because it will get a fright. It may bark, growl or even bite.
Wait until the dog is up and fully awake. Call its name first to
get its attention and then call the dog to you for a pat. Hence
the saying “let sleeping dogs lie”.
Dogs at parties. When we have parties at home it is best
your dog/s are put in a safe and quiet place because dogs get
anxious around loud noises, loud music and lots of strange
people. If you are at a party and there is a dog there, best to
pretend it is not there and ignore it.
Dog that is working eg: Guide Dog, Customs Dog, etc.
Avoid dogs working because we don’t want to distract them
from the important job they are doing.
Most dog bites requiring hospitalisation are to the face and neck
of young children. Young children are not good at reading the
signs of when a dog may bite. Most adults and children are
bitten by their own dog or a dog that they know. To avoid being
bitten we need to be aware of what dogs are trying to tell us.
Dog that is tied up outside a shop or anywhere and is on
its own. Remember the rule from last week “no owner, no pat”.
Dog that is sick or injured. When you are feeling unwell
or hurt you don’t really like people annoying you. Dogs are
the same. Leave them in a quiet and safe place to get over their
illness.
Dog that is eating. Dogs love their food and if it thinks
you are going to take its food away it will get angry. Wait until
the dog has finished eating and has walked away from its bowl.
Then call it to you and give it a pat.

Dog that is
SCARED
The Body Language of a scared dog
-
It makes itself as small as it
can.
-
It has its tail between its
legs.
-
It won’t look at you or looks
at the ground.
-
It might roll over and show
you its tummy
-
It may look like its crying

WELCOME TO OUR NEW PHARMACIST
AARON AT TURNBULLS PHARMACY
Hello to everyone. My
name is Aaron Dyne, I
am the new Pharmacist at
Turnbull's pharmacy, and
I look forward to meeting
and getting to know
everyone in this charming
town.
I grew up in Queensland
on the Sunshine Coast.
After graduating from
university I worked in the
beautiful Whitsundays
in far north Queensland
at Airlie Beach for six
months. I then travelled south to Albury Wodonga where I
completed my pharmacist training. I then decided I wanted
a change and I heard through the grapevine of a pharmacy in
beautiful Tasmania that was looking for a bright and eager young
pharmacist and I jumped at the chance for a fresh exciting new
start.
I am 24 years old, and when I am not working I enjoy hanging
out with friends, reading crime and mystery novels and writing
my own music.

KENTISH LIONS 23rd TRIPLE TOP EVENT
It is Triple Top time again. On the 9th November the Lions Club of Kentish assisted by the local SES will conduct the 23rd Triple
Top Mountain Run.
The event is nationally recognized and has grown in stature over the years. Competitors of all levels and ages participate. There are
two sections; one is for the more serious competitors. It is a race where the runners and joggers challenge themselves and each other.
The time taken by the competitors to cover the 19.7 km varies from two to five and a half hours.
The second section is for walkers, it is non competitive and the walkers spend anything from three and a half to eight hours out on
the course. This walking section is ideal for anybody who is fit enough to spend the best part of a day traversing Mt. Claude, Van
Dyke and Roland.
Locals are encouraged to tackle which ever section they feel comfortable with. Last year David Carter of West Kentish finished a very
creditable fifth place in the running section.
It is a tough day and good solid footwear and carrying sufficient food are two of the essentials.
Local businesses have been very generous with their support and this is appreciated. The money raised is
basically used to provide every finisher jogger or walker with a T shirt, Certificate and a barbeque lunch.
Entry forms available on Kentish Lions Club web site.

Medal was won by Gavin Murdoch with 62. The ladies medal,
also sponsored by Don Store, was won by Janice Milner with 72.
Congratulations to all our medal winners.
Sponsored Days
Sheffield RSL kindly sponsored an Ambrose 4. There was a
large field and everyone enjoyed the day helped especially, by a
delicious barbeque on the way round. The winners of the event
were the team of W. Rockliffe, L. Hardwicke, B. Sutherland and
N. Denney with 52.1 nett. A great score!
Silver Spoon Final
The final of the ladies silver spoon was played this month and
the winner was Judy Lang. Judy will go on to play in Gala Day
at Devonport. Congratulations Judy!
APPLE ISLE CARRIAGE DRIVING
The great Australian carriage
driver Boyd Exell is again
World Equestrian Games Gold
medallist after defending his
title for the third time.
The only Australian World
champion of all the equestrian
disciplines contested.
I often wonder what makes men like Boyd Exell tick, what
makes great champions almost freakish compared to good sports
men.
Is it fear,no that would set up barriers.
Perhaps a burning desire from within to be the best. All the
training in the world won't bring it to the majority.
Is there a recipe, a formula for these elite athletes? No one has
found it yet, not even science.
However here in Sheffield, our carriage club is keen to introduce
newcomers to the sport. Is it easy? No! Just like anything done
well, there is a process and method to follow.
How about giving it a try, and contact one of our club members.
Please call Chris 64912030 or Neil 0408 227 135 or Lesley on
0409 961 664

CLAUDE ROAD SLOW FOOD NIGHT
Halloween Comes to
Claude Road!
Be afraid – be VERY afraid! On November 1st
Claude Road Hall will be besieged by witches,
ghouls and ghosts of every kind, with spiders
lurking around every corner. At 6.30pm we
kick off a Halloween party filled with tricks and treats and you
are invited to wear your spookiest or funniest costume to help us
celebrate.
Although Halloween did not originate in the United States it
was the Americans who made it scary so we’re theming the food
American and if you can make it scary, even better. Don’t worry
if you can’t manage an American dish, just bring something to
share, or make a donation on the night. While costumes aren’t
compulsory there will be some wicked prizes on offer for those
who get in the spirit.
So come and join us if you dare - we promise you an evening to
die for!

HELPING HANDS
Last month volunteers from the Bible Chapel continued to help
meet some needs in the community. The requests continue to be
quite varied; the following are just two examples of several that
were carried out.
Chris from
Railton
(pictured on
his motorised
scooter) rang
later that same
night to say
how much he
appreciated
the work
completed by
the people who had helped him with various jobs earlier that
day. This meant so much to him as he is unable to do these jobs
for himself.
Another elderly lady asked two more volunteers if they could
drill a few holes and hang some items for her as well as to fit a
toilet seat. This request was completed in a few minutes and she
was left feeling grateful that even simple
jobs can be asked for and attended to by
willing workers.
If you haven’t asked for help to get those
tasks that you are either unable or cannot
afford to have done, feel free to phone
either Ken 6491 1512 or Andrew on 6491
1610.
Residents are reminded that the next Helping Hands day is
planned for Saturday 18th October so even if you think your
request is too small to ask help for, just phone in and leave it to
the volunteers to help you.

DAFFYDOWNDILLY
She wore her yellow sun-bonnet,
She wore her greenest gown;
She turned to the south wind
And curtsied up and down.
She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbour:
“Winter is dead.”
A A MILNE
Welcome to Spring everyone!
Mind you, I think maybe in latter years Spring is working to
a different calendar from the rest of us. My own daffies have
been showing off for at least an extra month. Yours? In any case
it is now official.
We gathered for our September meeting to find we were missing
a whole bunch of our usual participants. Some on the mainland,
some not well and some hiding from the rain. We were only 11
present.
This was a very short meeting as follow up to winter when
things go a wee bit quiet, but as we progressed through the
official agenda and started on the October events we realised it
will soon be time to put on the catering hats. There are a few
very busy weeks coming up. For those not present these are
the dates for your hosting diaries. 15th Oct - Merle's Soup &
Sandwich Fundraiser, 27th Oct - Day Care at Tandara, 31st Oct
- Soup/Sandwich at RSL, 8th Nov - Afternoon Tea at RSL for
the Mural Opening, 24th Nov - Tasbash Fundraiser.
First cab off the rank is Merle's Fundraising Day so a
reminder….please don't forget some contributions for a special
cause.... be it goodies for the Trade Table or some form of baby
clothes or even bedding as the recipients this year are to be the
new babies leaving hospital whose parent/s are doing it tough.
At this point in the meeting Merle asked that the input from 'a
certain Scotsman' be recognised. He came up to her in the Club,
out of the blue, with a contribution for this day. She was really
touched by his unexpected gesture. Thanks Merle.......message
received!
We discussed the Anzac Afternoon tea and it was clarified that
the food is not to be wartime as some thought. Just our regular
type afternoon teas. Always go down well.
“ and That ”, said Jack, “ Was That ! ”
Everyone “happy”, the Meeting Over bell rang and we tucked in
to a generous afternoon tea provided by Barb W. and Margaret,
a pre-taster for the Anzac one Ladies? You can do it again any
time you like ! Yummo!!
Next meeting usual Monday, usual time.

COMMUNITY NOTES
PIZZA CONNECTION
“As food is to the body, so is God’s word to the soul.”
In our last report we referred to the possible establishment
of a “Shed Happens” in Kentish. The decision has now been
taken to have a Kentish Shed Happens, the first Shed Night
will be held in November. More details in the next Kentish
Voice. The concept is to bring men together that they might
discuss the issues they are encountering in everyday life, “as
iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”
Our next pizza night will be held on Friday 10 October
at 6.30 pm in the Sheffield Town Hall. Our speaker will
be Matt Boulton who is the men’s pastor at Hope Centre
International Church in Brisbane where he also hosts
the “Bowen Hills Shed Night”. For 7 years Matt was
the Director of Counselling for CityCARE in Brisbane’s
infamous Fortitude Valley and for the past 12 years, has
been counselling domestic violence perpetrators and couples
in conflict, he is now an ambassador for White Ribbon
Australia.
Matt’s recent book, “Changing Tools”, shares of his own early
battle with anger and domestic violence, together with other
stories of men and women escaping their own life controlling
behaviors through changing the tools they are using in their
lives and relationships.
On Saturday morning, starting at 9am, Matt will conduct a
workshop for those wanting to know more about bringing
an end to domestic violence in our community. The venue is
not yet decided, TBA.
A local young man will speak of his addiction to alcohol and
drugs at the pizza night and tell how he found the path to
freedom from them, - darkness to light – an amazing story.
