HURRY! Final submission date for content for the commemorative edition of the Jolly Thing (27th Jan)
Don’t forget to put pen to paper, fingers to keyboards, voices to voice recognition software…or whatever other method you choose…to contribute something to the next special commemorative edition of the Jolly Thing. The upcoming edition will feature content related to the 10 year anniversary of Black Saturday. It’s well known that “milestone” events like these may evoke many mixed emotions. The process of writing and recounting events can be both traumatic – and therapeutic. Whatever your memories of, or before the fires, whatever your outlook and experiences have been since, or maybe it’s just your pride of being a ‘Screekian’ – all are worth capturing in the history of Steels Creek, via the Jolly Thing. For those that don’t yet know, the Jolly Thing (and the entire Steels Creek website at steelscreek.vic.au) are being archived in the State Archives for future generations. This is a chance to share some memories, feelings, observations, thoughts…even some hints and tips…not just to those in the community now, but well into the future.

We’d also encourage children (and young adults!) to contribute as well. This might be through artwork, stories, tributes – anything at all.

Steels Creek Tennis Club Open Day (27th Jan, 12:00pm)

Steels Creek has been fortunate enough to be allocated not one but two dates for a Bunnings Sausage sizzle at Chirnside Park. The first is a Landcare fundraiser on Saturday 5th January and the 2nd is for the Community Centre on Sunday 13th January. These are great ways to raise much needed funds for our groups but we can’t do it without community help. Angie Lloyd is organising both so if you can spare a couple of hours on either date please contact her at grimesangie@yahoo.com.au. It is a fun day and not too hard, you don’t need to be a member of either group and you will not be expected to stay all day (just a 2 hour time slot). If you think you can, please put it in your diary and send Angie an email.
EDITORS NOTE: A huge, huge thank you to Angie for organising these incredibly valuable events!!

S4Reel Movie Night (16th Nov, 6:00pm)
Dinner from 6pm – Film Starts 7:30pm. We look forward to you joining us for guaranteed laughs; suspense; and drama together with fine food; good company and a movie in our Gold Class venue. This last film of the year is a comedy and who knows the catering may be inspired but I will hire a bodyguard! Screening on Friday 16th November: “Who is Killing the Great Chefs Of Europe” (1989). Mystery abounds when it is discovered that, one by one, the greatest Chefs in Europe are being killed. The intriguing part of the murders is that each chef is killed in the same manner that their own special dish is prepared in. Food critics and the (many) self-proclaimed greatest Chefs in Europe demand the mystery be solved. Starring in this black comedy are George Segal; Jacqueline Bisset; and the marvellous Robert Morley. Cost is $10 per person plus $4 for the Centre. For those able to provide food it’s just $4 donation for the Centre. Please RSVP for catering purposes and please also let me know if you are able to supply a main course, salad or dessert. (Lindy – 5965 2202).

Black Saturday – 10 Year Anniversary Memorial Funding
The Steels Creek Community Centre Committee has recently been notified of an approved grant for funding to be used for commemorative activities for the 10-year anniversary of Black Saturday. The grant is for $5000 and will be used for a variety of activities including a wellness information session, a commemorative and history themed market day, a commemorative edition of the Jolly Thing (which will be included in the State archives), a new commemorative visitors book, and catering for several events – including two social woodfired pizza nights. There are obviously still very mixed feelings in the community about the 10 year anniversary, so the grant application tried to take all community feedback into consideration. Many thanks to everyone who contributed and responded to the earlier call-out for ideas. A particularly generous and heart-felt thank you to the president of the Steels Creek Community Centre committee, Maree Rothwell, for driving this project and helping us to secure the funding.

Black Saturday – 10 Year Anniversary Memorial
It’s coming up to 10 years since the devestating 2009 bushfires that affected so many of us S’Creekians. There’s many memorial activities planned around Victoria but, as a small community that was significantly impacted, Steels Creek has an opportunity to remember lives and properties lost, and to pay its respects to all involved in this tragic event, in the way it best sees fit. There are suggestions for some low key get togethers – on Thursday Feb 7th: a reflective walk to the memorial seat on old Kinglake road. Just a simple meet and walk together, weather conditions permitting. On the following market day (Saturday 9th) just a casual get-together with everyone bringing a plate of food – and some reflections and memories to share. The community has changed over the past 10 years with many new residents and others sadly moving on. Have your say about about what’s important for you – and your community – by emailing thegrapevine@steelscreek.vic.au and/or visit www.vic.gov.au/2009-bushfires.

Black Saturday – 10 Year Anniversary Memorial
It’s coming up to 10 years since the devestating 2009 bushfires that affected so many of us S’Creekians. There’s many memorial activities planned around Victoria but, as a small community that was significantly impacted, Steels Creek has an opportunity to remember lives and properties lost, and to pay its respects to all involved in this tragic event, in the way it best sees fit. There are suggestions for some low key get togethers – on Thursday Feb 7th: a reflective walk to the memorial seat on old Kinglake road. Just a simple meet and walk together, weather conditions permitting. On the following market day (Saturday 9th) just a casual get-together with everyone bringing a plate of food – and some reflections and memories to share. The community has changed over the past 10 years with many new residents and others sadly moving on. Have your say about about what’s important for you – and your community – by emailing thegrapevine@steelscreek.vic.au and/or visit www.vic.gov.au/2009-bushfires.

Increase in Steels Creek Community Centre Usage Fees
The Steels Creek Community Centre Committee recently held its AGM. One of the agenda items was to review the $3 per-person usage fee. As the centre receives no general funding from either the council or the state government, it relies entirely on all users paying a small fee to cover the (ever-increasing) operating costs. These are typically power, cleaning, and various consumables (use your imagination). The Committee agreed to increase the per-person, per-visit usage fee to $4 for all community events and casual hire to $60 for local groups (eg tennis club). The rationale? The Community Centre has been running at a loss for several years, so the committee decided to absorb the cost rises and use saved funds. However, we also need to keep a buffer on funds in the bank for any unforeseen expenses. It was agreed by the Committee to aim for a balanced budget. We know that any increase of cost is never easy for anybody. However, the Committee continues to pursue other funding options as well that will limit any future usage price rises.

SC4Reel Film Club (Friday 17th August 6pm) – “All That Heaven Allows” (1955)
This next film is our “Annual Romance” and will warm your heart in the coldest month!
Screening on Friday 17th August: All That Heaven Allows (1955).
This heartbreakingly beautiful indictment of 1950s American social mores follows the blossoming love between a well-off widow (Jane Wyman) and her handsome and earthy younger gardener (Rock Hudson). When their romance prompts the scorn of her children and country club friends, she must decide whether to pursue her own happiness or carry on a lonely, stifled existence for the sake of the approval of others.
Cost is $10 per person plus $3 for the Centre. For those able to provide food it’s just $3 donation for the Centre. Please RSVP for catering purposes and please also let me know if you are able to supply a main course, salad or dessert. (Lindy – 5965 2202).

This heartbreakingly beautiful indictment of 1950s American social mores follows the blossoming love between a well-off widow (Jane Wyman) and her handsome and earthy younger gardener (Rock Hudson). When their romance prompts the scorn of her children and country club friends, she must decide whether to pursue her own happiness or carry on a lonely, stifled existence for the sake of the approval of others.

provide food it’s just $3 donation for the Centre. Please RSVP for catering purposes and please also let me know if you are able to supply a main course, salad or dessert. (Lindy – 5965 2202).

Steels Creek Landcare – Volunteer Student Program
Do you need any help around your property? Volunteers are again available to assist landowners to undertake a range of tasks. Activities, which you might describe as “high volume low complexity”, have previously included tree planting, firewood stacking, fence removal, property tidy up, weed control plus a whole lot more. The current volunteers groups are made up of 8 to 10 students with 1 to 3 supervisors.
Basic tools, gloves and high visibility vests are supplied. Depending on the task/s to be undertaken, you may also need to organise appropriate tools yourself, e.g .wheelbarrows, shovels etc. We do ask that you also provide some light refreshment for the students if possible.
I would really like to build up a list of Steels Creek Landcare Members who are willing to have the volunteer students work on their property so that we can assist as many people as we can.
Billanook are coming out the week of September 17th and the week of November 19th.
Fairhills have just been out and are yet to confirm further visits.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Pizza Night (3rd March, 5:30pm)
We are all set for Pizza night tomorrow (Sat) from 5:30pm. Thanks for all those who have RSVPed. We are expecting a crowd of Screekians!! Country Woodfired Pizza have a new large trailer which will be parked in the lower carpark.

No parking will be available in the lower car park at the community centre. Those who are able to please park on the roadside opposite the centre and leave the remaining carparks within the centre grounds for those with poor mobility.

I also suggest bringing along camp chairs if you would like to sit in lower carpark near the pizza van as we only have one picnic table in this space.

A torch might also be a good idea to assist in getting back to cars in the evening. That is all. See you there! Maree

Help our new residents get better acquainted with the Steels Creek Community 
We have had some new residents move into the area in recent times. At this time of year in particular, it’s worth letting them know about the Grapevine, the Jolly Thing, the community centre, and the various community groups that operate in the valley. If you have new neighbours, point them to the website (www.steelscreek.vic.au), have them sign up to the Grapevine to ensure they receive locally relevant information – and most of all, ensure they’re on one of the fireguard group fire tree lists.
