The township name of Capel Sound will be officially registered and emergency services databases updated by Friday 9 December 2016.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Mayor Councillor Bev Colomb said the Shire is committed to ensuring the local community is well-informed and updated about the name change.

“We will be sending out

letters to Capel Sound residents and property owners in early December confirming their new property addresses and providing information on which organisations and service providers will be sent notice of the name change.” said Councillor Colomb.

The Office of Geographic Names and the Shire will notify various

statewide and national bodies including spatial information or mapping organisations, local emergency services, organisations and stakeholders.

Australia Post may continue to record and recognise the old address for a period of six to 12 months to ensure a smooth transition from the old address to the new.

It may take up to three months for online databases and address validation services to be updated.

The Registrar of Geographic Names approved and gazetted the new township name on 15 September 2016.

Capel Sound to be Officially Registered

Mornington Peninsula Shire will again take a ‘No Entertainment - No Nonsense’ approach to New Year’s Eve on the southern peninsula, working in partnership with a community-based steering committee, Police, residents and businesses to reduce negative impacts of celebrations in the area.

The approach has assisted in providing a safe environment for holiday makers and residents since its introduction more than 15 years ago.

The Shire aims to make sure the southern peninsula is a safe place for people to enjoy the New Year period.

There will be no public entertainment, no public fireworks and bans on alcohol in public places.

The Shire’s liquor laws will apply from 30 December 2016 – 1 January 2017 and precautions will be taken to ensure a safe and enjoyable New Year.

Possession of any glass container while in a public place is prohibited.

No camping

No camping is permitted in any public park or reserve, and all camping in permitted foreshore areas is fully-booked.

No fireworks or flares

There are no public displays of fireworks on New Year’s Eve. A person must not possess or discharge fireworks without a permit (fines apply). Discharge of flares is prohibited except in case of an emergency.

More than 100 people participated in White Ribbon Day events across the peninsula.

White Ribbon Day is aimed at raising awareness of family violence.

This year the Shire supported a number of events including the White Ribbon Day March in Hastings hosted by the community’s Respectful Relationships group.

The Shire also hosted an evening with Phil Cleary in Mornington. Phil Cleary was a prominent player and coach at the Coburg Football Club, an Australian commentator on politics and sport – particularly VFL, and a former independent politician.

Phil has been at the forefront of the campaign to stop violence against women since his sister was murdered by her ex-partner. Victorian Police Acting

Inspector Dean Clinton also spoke about how family violence is affecting the Mornington Peninsula Shire and beyond.

The Zonta Club Mornington Peninsula hosted a White Ribbon breakfast featuring Acting Senior Sergeant Craig Millar and Paul Zappa - Director of NIRODAH - an organisation whose mission is to empower young people with the knowledge and confidence to work through issues in their own lives.

White Ribbon Day also marks the commencement of the 2016 Victoria Against Violence 16 Days of Activism Campaign which runs from 25 November – 10 December.

The campaign aims to bring together families, businesses, students, community centres and organisations all across Victoria for one common

purpose: to unite to end family and gender violence.

The campaign is called Take Action, Go Orange, with orange being the colour designated by the UN Secretary–General’s ‘UNiTE to End Violence against Women’ campaign.

As a bright and

optimistic colour, orange represents a future free from violence against women and girls.

A travel time demonstration project will help motorists make informed travel choices to the southern peninsula this summer.

Signage located at the end of the freeway and at Sorrento will broadcast estimate travel times for two alternative traffic routes to/from the southern peninsula: the coastal route of Point Nepean Road, and the inland route of Browns Road.

Nineteen beacons installed by VicRoads along each route will detect road users with a Bluetooth-enabled device to estimate the travel times. Signage will then display constantly updated travel times of each route so drivers can make an informed decision as to which route to take.

The community can also download and use an app called ‘Addinsight’ to receive traffic information when in the trial area. The app provides voice prompts to advise when delays may

be experienced. The travel time

demonstration project is part of a trial jointly funded by Mornington Peninsula Shire and VicRoads.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Mayor Councillor Bev Colomb said the technology trial will provide drivers

with real-time travel information to make informed decisions when travelling on the southern peninsula.

“The project will not only help drivers by providing real-time traffic information, but will also assist Mornington Peninsula

Shire and VicRoads with strategic planning for future traffic and transport solutions on the southern peninsula,” said Councillor Colomb.

Sorrento is set to receive a new tourism information kiosk and public toilets as part of a million dollar improvement project Council approved on Monday 12 December.

The information kiosk

will be designed with modern facilities and amenities required for an accredited tourist business and will become eligible to use the Visitor Information Centre trademark – a blue and yellow italic letter ‘i’.

With Sorrento attracting

50 per cent of all visitors to the Mornington Peninsula,

these new improvements will be of world-class standard reflecting the status of Sorrento as an international heritage tourist destination.

The improvements to

Sorrento will also see six new public toilet cubicles on George Street which will be fully automated, touch free and one will be fully accessible.

The project will also see streetscape works to provide high quality public spaces, including footpath paving, associated garden beds and street furniture.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Mayor Councillor Bev Colomb said “the project reflects Council’s and the community’s goal to deliver projects to improve the look and amenity of our townships”.

Mornington Peninsula

Shire Nepean Ward Councillor Hugh Fraser said “we are always looking for ways to improve our public spaces to ensure they are meeting the needs of our community. This upgrade will serve the community well”.

Fellow Nepean Ward

Councillor and Deputy Mayor Bryan Payne said “these enhancements will increase the amenity of our township for residents and visitors. The new public toilets will have a high standard of cleanliness, safety and security and ventilation”.

Works are expected to

start in April 2017, with completion due around July 2017.

More than 100 Mornington Park Primary school students, grades 3–6, have created avian works for the Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery (MPRG) forecourt as part of the Birds: Flight paths in Australian art exhibition.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Mayor Councillor Bev Colomb said “we’re so pleased that visitors to our regional gallery can enjoy seeing the creativity of local school children”.

Artist and MPRG educator Jill Anderson said students enthusiastically took up the challenge to design their own avian creature.

“In the interests of caring for the environment and bird habitat, recycled drink bottles were used for the body, then sculptors’ wire mesh and clay were added, painted and varnished,” Ms Anderson said.

The students’ exhibition was launched on Wednesday 7 December. Visitors to MPRG can enjoy seeing their colourful works until 12 February 2017.

Young visitors to MPRG can also add a black bird to the flock in Juan Ford’s work, visit the pigeon ‘club house’, check out Kenny Pittock’s specially commissioned colouring book about birds on the Mornington Peninsula or learn more with an MPRG Kids Activity booklet.

MPRG is also running a

January School Holiday program, including:

see how artists have used birds to explore art and create their own arty avian (ages 5­-12)

explore The Briars wetlands and find out how to create a bird-friendly space in their own backyard (ages 5-12)

It's hot off the printing press and available for purchase at Seawinds Community Hub next to Eastbourne Primary School.

Those who love Rosebud West will be hopping mad if they miss out on a copy, so don't be too slow out of the starting blocks.

Like Patricia Appleford's history of Rye Primary School, a large part of the book consists of the memoirs of early residents.

I'll give you a few licks of the ice cream so you can get some idea of the contents.

I was intrigued by the Coleman family's description of the Creighton (Crichton) dairy farm behind their property.

Alexander Crichton had farmed the property (crown allotments 40-43 Wannaeue, granted to John Lovie and later occupied by J.T.Rolls) by 1879 and until about 1911 when he had moved to Mosshead, Gembrook.

John Crichton Jnr. continued the family's occupancy of Glenlee across Browns Rd from Menstrie Mains. By 1919, Agar Wynne of Melbourne had the 678 acres granted to

Lovie. It must have been David

Maynard Crichton to whom the Colemans were referring.

He grew up at Epping and after serving in W.W.1 resumed his contracting, but on the peninsula. He probably bought Glenlee in 1927 but some years before his death in 1967 he retired to a farm at Rosebud.

This may have been the land now occupied by Rosebud Industrial Estate, Bunnings and John Cain's old limestone house (occupied by Ken Spunner at some latter stage.)

Debbie Dixon provided many photos of Murray Moser's helicopter and garage on the corner of Chatfield Avenue.

After Ted Wong had sold the Beach Gardens Estate he bought land between Balaka St and Chinamans Creek which was sold to the Coleman brothers who decided not to develop it; Laurie kept the Eastbourne Rd frontage of 25 acres and Ron the back 35 acres as hobby farms.

Ron remembered Jack Warnock's little 4 acre golf course on land he bought

from Charles Coleman., which I do too with great fondness.

"Jack loved his golf and by some anecdotes was a delightful, friendly, community-minded gentleman who loved a chat," is exactly how I would have described him!

It was interesting the stages the Phillip Ballroom went through. Everyone agreed it was opulent, especially for a little seaside resort.

Campers used to bring their suits and frocks so their attire would do justice to such a lovely venue.

The dance floor was perfect to slide and glide in the ballroom dances; the kids' use of such a beautiful dance floor can only be seen nowadays at wedding receptions.

Then the hippie influence took over with jazzers and later rockers dancing in sand after the beautiful floor was ripped up, some fantastic bands which later hit the big time, then oil was mixed with the sand to make a hard skating surface. A huge indoor wreckers.

A new study examining the impact of targeted manual treatment in relieving migraine pain has been welcomed by chiropractors.

The study by a Western Australian physiotherapist, involves targeted pressure being placed on the neck over a series of sessions in order to relieve the root cause of migraine pain. Scientific papers published in prestigious international journals over the past two decades have reported the value of chiropractic health care in treating migraine pain and the Victorian Chiropractor of the Year, Dr Roxanne Daniels said chiropractors welcomed other professions recognising the effectiveness of chiropractic techniques.

“Chiropractors have five years of university training

in techniques to alleviate pain related to alignment of the back and neck and it is really important that the public seek diagnosis and treatment from health professionals with comprehensive training in this area.”

A paper published in the European Journal of Neurology in September 2016 was the latest in a series of papers to confirm the effectiveness of chiropractic health care in treating people with migraines. The study of 104 people in Norway found that Migraine symptoms were substantially reduced as a result of chiropractic treatment.

Numerous other studies have also demonstrated the effectiveness of chiropractic care in relation to migraine pain. An Australian study published in the Journal of

Manipulative Physiological Therapy in February 2000 also demonstrated the effectiveness of chiropractic care in treating migraine pain. The researchers looked at sufferers aged from 10 to 70 years & found that more than 80% of people who were treated with chiropractic care reported an improvement in migraines.

“Each week, there are up to 300,000 visits to Australian chiropractors to treat headaches and other spine-related disorders,” Dr Daniels said.

“It is important to note that chiropractors undertake a full five years of training at university in order to develop their expertise in diagnosis and delivery of low risk, patient centred care of issues related to the spine.”
