Hello Coffin Bay

Congratulations to Fi and her helpers for putting on a lovely Biggest Morning Tea at the Post Office, fantastic effort on raising $1600. The rain help off and the scones were divine,

couldn’t ask for anything more. Also Fi has raised enough money from Putt Putt to purchase a defibrillator which will be installed near the Town jetty. Well done and thankyou.

We also celebrated on that day Dilip’s fifth year in CB, thankyou Dilip for all that you do for us.

Working Bee’s have been going well at the Hall, thanks to all that have been able to help

out. Our newest Progress member Georgina Lewis, who lives over in Kellidie Bay, is going to compile the history of Progress over the past 70 years. I know this will be a huge job and I

am looking forward to seeing what she will discover in all the boxes and files we have at the Hall.

The fence at the Playground should commence at the end of the month, slight holdup with

the powder coating.

Unfortunately we have not been able to find a new secretary. I know some people don’t like the thought of being on a Committee but we are a nice bunch and willing to help you

settle in.

I mentioned in my last report that we would love to hold a Spring plant sale probably in September. We would combine this with a book stall, cake stall, refreshments, and need

stalls selling plants, flowers, pots, mosaics etc. BUT we need to know if there is any interest in regards to stall holders. Please ring me or text me if you think you would like to join us on the

day.

Cheers Carol Fathers

Have you dropped in to Beachies to see Steve and Tilly since they have been

back as sole owners?

We are welcoming everyone back in the month of June by offering a free drink

(alcohol not included) when $40 is spent in one transaction.

Just mention the offer when you come in for a feed, or groceries, or fuel or lots

of ice-cream ☺ to receive a free hot or cold drink.

Some old favourites are back on the menu. Check it out on the last 2 pages of

this Coffin Bay Sun. Easy to tear off and keep on the fridge.

Winter hours are 8am to 6pm and as always phone orders are welcome.

Oyster happy hour is back in June….. 4 – 5 pm daily.

Gardening Tip by Phil Siviour - Coffin Bay Gardening Service

The insects that thrived in our gardens in the warm weather have disappeared, but have unfortunately been replaced by millipedes, caterpillars, slugs and snails.

Millipedes are attracted by light, so use this to attract and trap them. Caterpillars

are best removed from your leafy vegetables by hand or using non-toxic spray specific to caterpillars when they first appear. Slugs and snails are now very hungry!

Remove by hand or set traps to collect them. Your chooks may be grateful for the extra treat!

Citrus trees in pots need a bit of help to get through winter. Fertilise with a small amount of potash (rose fertiliser is good), cut back branches that have strong

growth by about 25 – 30%, and remove leaves that have been damaged by citrus leaf miner. These need to be destroyed, not composted.

-Meet the Locals-

MASKED LAPWING

The wild cry of the Masked Lapwing evokes treasured memories of holidays with my grandparents at Meningie in the early fifties. It was they that gave me my first bird book “What

Bird is That?” by Neville Cayley.

Also known as Spur-winged Plovers, they need little introduction as many are seen in open areas about our town. A pair are regularly found either around the bottom of Giles Road on the

Esplanade footpath or at water’s edge on the little beach. Their most prominent feature is the

yellow dingle-dangles properly known as “wattles” hanging from the sides of their head. They are often confused with the endangered Hooded Plover – more about them in a future article.

My daughter was a bit dark on these birds after she was attacked. They nest in open paddocks

and defend their eggs/hatchlings either with distraction tactics (eg. feigning injury) or aggressive swooping. Beware, and retrace your steps; they have sharp spurs projecting from

their wing bones. However, her heart melted when she witnessed one watching over its road-killed mate for a couple of days. They may have been together for 30 years.

Nesting on the ground renders their eggs

and chicks vulnerable to being sniffed out by foxes at night. It appears that that

fox baiting is the reason numbers are buoyant in our area.

Their diet includes insects, grubs, worms,

small aquatic life and vegetable matter.

COFFIN BAY YACHT CLUB - NEWS

Sailing Season 2018/19 presentations were held on Friday17th May at the CBYC, with a great turn out of sailors eagerly awaiting the results/rewards. We had a good mixture of the junior sailors who have been participating in the “Learn to Sail” program and the senior sailors of

whom race in the afternoons.

All the junior participants that were involved in the sail training program received an award for their participation being a beach towel and a medallion. These awards were made available due to the sponsorship from

Shane Woods of Eyre Refrigeration and Electrical of which the club and juniors greatly appreciated.

The senior trophy presentation then started with all boats/crew receiving an award. The standout winners were Maddy & Rusty Lowe in the Heron Class and Peter & Deanna Henderson in the 125 Class.

The Sailing Supporter of the year was awarded to Rusty Lowe for his efforts of helping with the junior program and getting two herons on the water most weekends.

The coveted award Sailor of the Year went to Tim Ashman who travelled and participated in the 125 National Titles at the Humpybong Yacht Club in Queensland. He represented the Club in a great manner and sportsmanship while away at the Nationals and had a result of ninth overall at the end of the

regatta. Tim also volunteers with running the junior sail training program every Sunday morning during sailing season and also is a valued committee member of the CBYC.

All of this is not possible without thanking the many sponsors, volunteers, helpers, Mums and Dads that put a great effort every weekend throughout the sailing season.

We also look forward to another great year next year and encourage anyone that wants to have a go or learn to sail, to leave an expression of interest with contact details of the participant, at the Club.

See you all again next season.. Hendo

Refuse Reduce Reuse Recycle Compost

“Recycling services, waste reduction and resource recovery in

the District Council of Lower Eyre Peninsula area” survey results

The Progress Association undertook this survey asking about awareness and attitudes to recycling and willingness to

pay a rate rise for a kerbside recycling service. We received 287 responses. The number of responses and the

comments reflect a change in attitudes and an increasing desire to have a recycling service and a willingness to pay

some amount for the service

65% of people who responded were not aware of any service offered by Council to recycle glass, metal and some

plastics. 60% of respondents indicated that they sorted waste to separate material that is recyclable but over 50%

only separated out the container deposit items. 92% respondents indicated that they were likely or very likely to

separate waste for a kerbside recycling service.

Comments collected in the survey indicate that the recycling drop-off facilities at the waste transfer stations in Coffin

Bay, Cummins and Port Lincoln are little used, it is not well known what can be taken there for recycling and some

just refuse to use the facilities in Coffin Bay and Cummins on principle because they have to pay, currently $3/boot

load at Cummins and Coffin Bay. It is free to drop recyclable to the Port Lincoln Waste transfer staion.

The results of the survey were presented to council at the April meeting. We asked that the charge for delivering

recyclables to the waste transfer stations removed as this is an important first step in encouraging the community to

start sorting waste

Council’s response has always been that ratepayers are not willing to pay the required rate rise to accommodate a

kerbside recycling service. This survey shows that there has been a change in attitudes with 64% of respondents

indicating that they were willing to pay something to have a kerbside recycling service. Most Councils have accepted

that the introduction of a kerbside recycling service may initially cost them but they are prepared to carry the loss as

they want the service implemented to contribute to the South Australian targets for waste reduction to landfill.

The response from the District Council of Lower Eyre April 2019 meeting minutes:

That the Coffin Bay Progress Association be thanked for the letter advocating for changes to the recycling of

waste in Coffin Bay and advised as follows:

1. Council’s general kerbside collection service fully expires in June 2021 and the incorporation of kerbside

recycling service in the next contract and joint tendering with another Council will be considered at this

time;

2. Council will consider removing gate fees for metals, plastics and glass at its Waste Transfer Stations in

the 2019/20 budget.

3. The Council will workshop and review waste management in LEP with the view to investigate

opportunities to reduce waste through the use of recycled products, through initiatives with other

Councils, by encouraging residents to be waste conscious, and by recycling and other means. Carried.

The waste transfer stations will accept household metal such as food cans, glass jars and bottles, and plastics

marked [1] & [2] which are milk bottles, butter containers, etc, paper bundled and cardboard flattened More on

this next month.

Page 21: The Coffin Bay Sun · 2019-05-28 · The Coffin Bay Sun CONTACT US Hello Coffin Bay Congratulations to Fi and her helpers for putting on a lovely Biggest Morning Tea at the Post Office,

As most people are aware I have been collecting deposit containers for over 4 years now and I am

happy to let you know that with your help I have reached the grand total off:

$10,000 That’s 100,000 deposit containers recycled from our community and local area.

These funds have been forwarded to Cancer Council SA

When I started collecting I did not have any goal in mind, so I would like to thank each and everyone

who has helped to achieve the fantastic amount

As many of you are aware I started this project because my wife Louise Angus was fighting cancer for

the second time and I needed to do something to help find a cure for cancer.

Sadly Louise lost her battle with cancer on January 17th this year after a 7 year battle

I would like to thank everyone for their kind thoughts and messages on her passing as she was a very

special person and touched so many people with her kind smile, warm words, and lovely personality.

She will be sadly missed by all

I promise her I would reach $10,000 then take a long earned break from collecting for Cancer

Council SA

Once again my many thanks to all who helped reach this wonderful amount

Cheers

Bill Angus
