MOUNTAINS OF INSPIRATION AS MIM MAKES IT TO EVEREST

Only 4 short months ago Mim Bayne signed up for the challenge of a lifetime, joining the Beat Blood Everest Challenge to raise vital funds for the Leukaemia Foundation of Australia, to help support people living with blood cancer. Mim knew firsthand how devastating a blood cancer diagnosis can be. Her late husband, Peter, was diagnosed with myeloma in 2014 and after a courageous battle with blood cancer sadly lost his life

last October, away from home in Melbourne whilst under-going treatment. Mim first interacted with the Leukaemia Foundation when her mum died in 2014 with Leukaemia. Blood cancer does not discriminate and disrupts an entire family’s life; many families having to relocate to be nearer to treating centres during their gruelling treat-ment. This was the case for Mim and Peter, needing to re-locate from Ulverstone to

together. Since Peter’s passing, Mim felt a strong determination to show her support to the organisation that provided her with such wonderful support during Pete’s journey with myeloma. Not only did they provide a ‘home away from home’ in Melbourne but they were there every step of the way during his courageous struggle with

a very aggressive myeloma. It was late in January that Mim signed up to Trek to Everest base camp, unsure how she would fundraise at least $4000 and not certain if she would achieve the physical fitness for the challenge, but one thing was sure, she was determined to give it her absolute all – in even starting this challenge (Continued on p.3)

Melbourne for over 3 months of Pete’s treatment. It was during their time in Melbourne, Leukaemia Foundation’s National Myeloma Coordinator Jo Beams, was visiting Peter and Mim and spoke of the Everest Challenge she had just signed up for, to which both Pete and Mim were very excited to hear about and dreamed of one day being well enough to do something like this

EDITORIALThe last week of May celebrated our country’s volunteers, many of whom reside in the Central Coast, and this month is a tribute to all of you. I have been filled with overwhelming inspiration as I put the pages of this month’s publication together, for the willing hands and hearts who reach out to those in need in our community. In my Sociology class, we have been studying work and the economy, looking at statistics on the contribution of unpaid work. As the Australian Bureau of Statistics acknowledges, “Unpaid work fulfils many important functions that directly affect the well-being and quality of people’s lives and covers a variety of activities such as voluntary

work, domestic work, and caring for others. Unpaid work in the household and voluntary work in the community also make a substantial contribution to the national economy and to Australian society,” (abs.gov.au), which if converted to paid labour , would equate to 48% of Austra-lia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This is far from the rea-sons for volunteering, however, it is good to know how much doing our bit for others con-tributes to the wellbeing of our country too, and this deserves to be acknowledged. Mim’s journey to Everest base camp makes a fitting front cover story for this edition. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I read about this courageous woman’s determination after losing both her mother and husband to leukaemia. I am

privileged to share this story and if you want to get an opportunity to meet a local hero, read the details at the end of the article on p.3. All of us have mountains to climb in our lives and Mim’s journey can be an inspiration to us all. The Bakers have their own business in Ulverstone but that is not their only work. Their passion lies in their community outreach programs which supports people in the local community but also reaches as far as Uganda. Read about their business and charity work on pages 4 and 7.Rotary and Lions Clubs world-wide are symbols of doing good for others in the community, and our local clubs live up to that reputation. The Rotary Club of Ulverstone put on their dance shoes and sparkled in the dark to support

those affected by Huntington’s Disease (p.15). The Lions Club of Penguin are doing their bit to raise awareness for Cystic Fibrosis (p.6). Jeanne Koetsier and volunteers at the Penguin Uniting Church raised $1248 dollars for the Cancer Council at their biggest morning tea, and I am sure there are many of you who were making and baking for this worthy cause.There are so many volunteers worthy of mention but not enough words to do justice; know how much good you are doing for those directly touched by your compassion, but also the great contributions to our community, state, coun-try and ultimately our global citizens, for every bit of good makes the world a better place.

MIM EVEREST (Continued from front page)she knew she had reached her Everest.Now, a month on we celebrate with Mim and the entire team their amazing efforts in not only everyone reaching Everest base camp but also reaching an incredible $75,000 raised directly to the Leukaemia Foundation, with funds still coming in. What an amazing effort to give families fighting blood cancer the emotional and practical support they need, whilst funding research to find a cure. Mim has been humbled by the generosity of those who have helped support her heart journey in sponsoring her on this journey. Not only did Mim reach her initial goal of $4000, but she left it in the dust with her fundraising sitting on $6627. As Mim explains, “To say the journey was easy would have

been a lie; there were certainly challenges we had to overcome along the way, but the sense of real, unparalleled accomplishment we felt as we reached 5, 364m and arrived at Everest base camp is life altering –a moment I will never forget. This was not a journey I could have done on my own. I will remain eternal-ly grateful for all the support and encouragement from our fellow trekkers, as I know it is not something I could have achieved on my own.” Mim recounts on one of the tougher days, overcome with a chest infection whilst battling the thinning air, it was fellow trekkers, Claudia and Alistair, whose encouragement and support that day stopped her from turning back. Mim recalls that if the lodge had been any further away she doubts she could have kept on going.

Mim and PeterThese are her memories of incredible team spirit, absolutely breath takingly spectacular scenery and stunning weather that sur-passed Mim’s expectations on all accounts. Fellow Tasmanian trekker Alistair says, “To stand in the shadows of these giants was incredibly surreal and emotional, acknowledging why we were doing what we were doing. The love and support from home was evident through each day.”On Sunday 22nd of April Mim and the team reached Everest Base camp, laid “hope” stones amongst the Nepalese prayer flags – with a hopeful prayer that the funds raised would help our amazing researchers find a cure that no more lives have to be lost to blood cancer again. Mim is so grateful and thankful for all the love and support she has experienced

along the way.On Friday 3rd August com-mencing at 4:30pm we will be holding an informal information gathering to show photos and videos and share our Everest experience, as well as have the opportunity to thank our sponsors at the Launceston Cancer Support centre, 69 Howick St, Launceston.

Federal Government Small Business Program to Remain in Tasmanian Hands

The Australian Government has announced that Tasmanian not for profit organisation, Switch Tasmania, is part of a suc-cessful joint bid to deliver its flagship small business support program. The ASBAS Digital Solutions program will offer small business operators low-cost, high-quality advice on a range of digital solutions across four priority areas:- websites and selling online- social media and digital marketing- using small business software, and- online security and data privacySwitch Tasmania Executive Officer, Daryl Connelly, said that this was a fantastic result for Tasmania. “This was a very competitive

process, with the Government awarding only three contracts across the country. Our joint tender won the contract for all of Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania. It is a fantastic result for a relatively young, regionally based organisation, and good news for small busi-nesses in Tasmania” said Mr Connelly. “We worked very hard to develop a collaborative model with Melbourne Innovation Centre and Adelaide Business Hub, to ensure that here on the island, the program would be delivered by Tasmanians for Tasmanians. We came about to support business people in 2011, in response to widespread doom and gloom about the north-west Tasmanian

economy. Our approach is a community based one, and this recent success, as well as our previous achievements is testament to the hard work of our volunteer board and the goodwill and generosity that the Tasma-nian community has shown us since that time”. Switch Tasmania also delivers the Tasmanian Government’s Enterprise Centres Tasmania program and Digital Ready program in

north-west Tas-mania. This will be the first time that Switch has been engaged to provide

Penguin History Group: Penguin’s Early SettlementCorrection from last month’s Peguin Hostory Group article:The opening statement referred to the end of passenger trans-port in 1962; that was the date for the closure of the Workers’ Train but the Tasman Limited service ran until 1978

Penguin was one of the last North-Western towns to be settled due primarily to the lack of a major waterway combined with the seemingly impenetrable forests. Also, the Pre-Emptive Rights Act of the early 1850’s granted large tracts of land in the district to distant landowners who sat on their holdings and thwarted any initial development.It is believed that in 1857, boat builders Burgess and others arrived at Sulphur Creek. In 1861 Beecraft was the first settler in Penguin. The Penguin district transformed from dense bushland in a single generation thanks to the efforts of the early pioneers. Many of these were religious immigrants, Methodists from Norfolk in England who had

Completion of the crossing, 1901

arrived in Tasmania earlier on the “Whirlwind” (1855) & the “Southern Eagle” (1857). Many descendants of these first settlers still live in the Penguin district today.After the Leven River was bridged an inland track and later a coastal track were opened between the two settlements. A small jetty was established to cater for sailing craft who helped in the supply of necessary provisions and later shipped timber and pro-

duce to the mainland.Gradually the settlement grew into a small town and the hinterland began to open up. In 1875 the town boundaries were drawn up. West Pine was opened up in the early 1880’s, Riana was settled in 1884, Cuprona in the early 1890’s and South Riana by the mid 1890’s. The Penguin Municipality was officially proclaimed in 1906.Residential DevelopmentInitial building development tended to follow the coastline

and the main arterial roads. The town was centred at first on the flat area of plain adjacent to the creek and gradually extended along the early roads – South, Pine and Ironcliffe.The single largest development came in the early 1950’s with the building of over 60 homes around Ashwater Crescent by the Agricultural Bank, primarily to house workers at the recently opened Titan factory at Heybridge. The impact of these homes resulted in significant popula-tion growth, increased school enrolments and a considerable boost to the local construction industry.Subsequent sub-divisions, both public and private, took some time to eventuate but examples include the South Road public housing estate in the 1970’s then later de Santis’ estate near Commonwealth Court and more recently a large sub-division at Sulphur Creek.

Justine Keay – A Fair Go for the Central CoastJustine Keay is the Federal La-bor Candidate for the Braddon by-election. A former local government representative and federal member for Braddon, Justine works hard for the local community.An example of Justine’s work is how she lobbied on behalf of local farmers and community groups for an inquiry into the devastating 2016 floods. These floods caused so much damage along the entire North West Coast and Justine stood up for local communities, call-ing for an inquiry to understand the reasons behind the floods and importantly what lessons could be learnt for the future.Justine has also worked closely with local community groups in the Central Coast like the Ulverstone Men’s Shed. Un-fortunately, some wheelchair bound members had taken falls

in trying to access the Men’s Shed. So, in partnership with the Men’s Shed, Justine used $19,000 from the Braddon Stronger Communities Program to construct a new pathway, making it much easier for members to participate in Men’s Shed programs.Other beneficiaries of the improved access at the Men’s Shed include the Ladies’ Shed, Coffin Club, Umina Park Old

People’s Home, Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Group, Ability Tasmania, Richmond Fellowship and Partners for Performers as well as local tie-dyers.Justine Keay has also stood up for local pensioners in federal parliament. Justine has argued in federal parliament against the axing of the energy supplement because she does not think this is fair and our pensioners

have worked all their lives and should be treated with dignity and respect. Justine also believes local resi-dents should not have to work until they are 70 in order to receive an aged pension. Justine needs the support of the Central Coast because she will continue to support the local community and ensure they get a fair go.

Cryptic Answers:

NW Cross Country a Great Success

I recently went to watch my son participate in the North West Primary Schools cross country event, held at the Ulverstone Football grounds. I was very impressed with how well it was organised and also the wonderful atmosphere the children created by cheering for their school mates. The kids who participated all did a great job, running as fast as they could until the very end. The best part though was the sportsmanship and encourage-ment shown by these youngsters towards each other and the inter school commu-nity spirit shows us what a wonderful place we are raising our children in.

Chick Out the Next Rooster AmnestyThe rooster amnesty day was a huge success both for the Ulverstone Poultry Club and the community.We ended up with just over 100 birds being surrendered. That number of birds speaks volumes for the need for all the clubs to offer this community service to the public. There were a few older hens and a few pullets with unsuitable colouring or faults for showing amongst the roosters as well. Most of the birds were cross-breeds but there were some beautiful cock birds there, including ten magnificent Barbu d’Uccles and several Silkies. There were a few cock birds left behind after the show as well!Including money offered by people wanting to purchase

roosters and the few hens, the club made close to $200. One lady offered $30 for one of the Barbu d’Uccle cockerels. At least three people brought their entire flock in for someone to go through them and pick out the roosters as they did not know how to tell what they were then took their girls home and left the boys.

The club sat a donation box out at the entrance and just asked people to make a donation to the club rather than collect a sum of money.Two lucky roosters,a large New

(August 12th) straight after the annual show. The club has decided to extend the hours of the next amnesty from 9 am to 12.30 pm to give those people who have other things to do of a Sunday morning time to bring in their unwanted birds into the pavilion.

Ulverstone Poultry Club ShowOur Open Show was a big success with 323 birds being benched on the day. Amongst these birds there were three very large male turkeys and sixty-one ducks including a few massive Muscovies. The rest were all various breeds and colours of chooks. Exhibitors came from all over the state such as Hobart, Smithton, Bothwell, the outer reaches of Launceston and locally.

Hampshire called ‘Cody’ and a Sussex X Hamburgh went to look after a flock of twenty Isa-brown laying hens. At least a third of the males surrendered had been given names and one mum had her children carry the birds in and say goodbye to them.The club is having another amnesty day on the Sunday

STAYING CONNECTED WITH TIM WILSON TasALERT is a great website. Your one-stop shop for alerts such as wild weather, road clo-sures and bush fires. There is a really useful map that shows you where the hotspots are. TasALERTS plus ABC Local radio should put you in good stead in times of emergency. I have to admit I am pretty im-pressed with some Microsoft products that are out there (this is coming from someone who has an Apple computer). OneNote is a top rate piece of software - I have written about it before. They also have a laptop (sorta) called a Surface Pro. You can use it as a laptop (with a keyboard) or pull the keyboard off and use it as a tablet - complete with a smart pen for drawing with. I have seen a few of these in action and I am very impressed by what they can achieve. Not cheap to buy, but for those who want the freedom to write and draw as well as use a

keyboard, they are impressive. They start at around $1000. Save your pennies!IoT. Yes IoT. Internet of Things. You may be increasingly hearing this phrase. IoT are devices that can connect to the Internet such as a fridge. Yes a fridge - you can buy a fridge that has a camera in it which you can access from your smartphone while out shop-ping. Not sure if you have any milk? No worries, look in your fridge through your smart-phone. Place your grocery order from your fridge - yes indeed. The Internet of Things.

Winners of the One Year in Tasmania Adventure Film CompetitionOn Saturday April 7 at the Cra-dle Mountain Hotel more than 180 people were enthralled by a screening of the 17 best short film entries in the One Year in Tasmania Adventure Film competition as part of the Cradle Mountain Film Festival.The annual competition is run as part of the Cradle Mountain Film Festival and attracts entries from amateur, semi-professional and pro-fessional filmmakers as they present their interpretation of an adventure in Tasmania.

Conditions of entry are that films are under five minutes long, feature an adventure in Tasmania, and are filmed and made in the year preceding the submission deadline (in this case March 1 2018).“This year we had entries that spanned the spectrum of great Tassie adventures, from epic ultra-marathon runs, family holidays, imaginary adventures, animation, kayaking, big wave surfing, beautiful mountain summits, skiing, canyoning and a look inside the motivations of

a landscape photog-rapher,” said Cradle Mountain Film Festival Coordinator, Anna Paice.“The judges this year were four experi-enced filmmakers and adventurers who have a keen sense of the importance of a good story. They were looking for the best films that took the audience on a

journey and kept the pace roll-ing and the viewer engaged for the duration,” Ms Paice said.“Judges found it extremely dif-ficult to separate the winners and bring their ranking down to a top three films, so they awarded a Highly Commended film to Simon Treweek for his big wave surfing documentary featuring James McKean, titled The Next Step”.The judges were: Catherine Pettman: Co-Director of Rum-min Productions and Executive Producer of Lowest to Highest; Sharyn Jones: mountaineer, filmmaker and videographer with Tourism Tasmania; Pete Wyllie: climber, BASE-jumper, GP anaesthetist and Director of The Lorax Project; and Tom Lowe: fire-fighter, outdoor adventurer, filmmaker and Director of Overland. Entrants in the competition were privi-leged to have all the judges at the festival and were invited to meet the judges for feedback and tips on improving their filmmaking craft in the future.

The Sparkle committee was deciding “who should we support?” There are more than 54,000 charities registered with the Australian Charities & Not for Profit Com-mission? How do you choose one?Pam Cummings came to a plan-ning committee to talk about Huntington’s Disease. Most of us knew very little about it. This is what we learnt that evening:Huntington’s Disease is a disease of the brain passed from parent to child. Symp-toms usually appear between 35 and 55. There is no cure. Every generation is at risk, and you have a 1-in-2 chance of

In fact, some families prefer to keep a low profile.Huntington’s Disease arrived in Tasmania in the 1800’s. A young woman named Mary carried the family gene. She had fourteen children and the disease spread through future generations. Australia now has the second highest incidence per population in the world; most likely Tasmania being a small island with a small popu-lation would have contributed to that.Pam Cummings described Huntingtons as ‘hideous’. She spoke passionately that night about what the families and sufferers went through. The Sparkle committee felt her organisation deserved every
