Lilydale Swimming Pool
The end of another year will soon be
upon us. I’m not sure exactly where the
past 12 months has gone, but gone it
certainly has.
The Lilydale District Swimming Pool
committee is working at preparing the
pool to be open on the weekend of the
4th of December. The committee is
made up of people from around the
district, who give their time as
volunteers, with an interest in running
and maintaining the pool, normally
meeting once a month.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank
all those who’ve supported the
Progressive this year. Thank you to all
our advertisers, without your financial
support the Progressive certainly
wouldn’t be here. Thank you also to all
of our local community groups your
articles have kept our readers informed
about all the wonderful things happening
in our district. Thank you to my 2
wonderful helpers, Carol Charlton and
Coralee Freeman, without you the
Progressive would be filled with typing
errors (my fingers have always lagged
just a bit behind the speed of my
thoughts whilst typing articles).
But most of all thank you to all our
readers, I hope you’ve enjoyed reading
our little newsletter as much as we’ve
enjoyed putting it together for you this
year. Here’s looking forward to a bright
and informative New Year. We’re
always looking for interesting bits and
pieces to put in the Progressive so if
you’d like to contribute an article for all
to read and enjoy, please get in touch
with me.
Here’s wishing you all a
Very Merry Christmas,
filled with family, friends
and
good
times
together, and a Safe &
Happy New Year. See
you all in 2011
“Love is what's in the room with
you at Christmas if you stop
opening presents and listen.”
PS: Don’t forget to enter the Lilydale Branch
Tasmanian Regional Arts Colouring
Competition. Thanks to Frea for allowing
her 1994 artwork to be reused this year, if
you coloured it in then, why not give it
another try this year!

The Lilydale Progressive - December 2010
The pool operates with a grant from
Launceston City Council and money
from the entry fee for the pool.
This year, as has been the case in
previous years, preparation for opening
starts 4 to 6 weeks prior to the opening
date with draining the water, cleaning
and repairing the pool, before refilling.
Treating the water and heating it has its
problems, particularly at this time of the
year, with unpredictable weather. Being
solar heated the committee have an eye
to the weather and are hoping for warm
sunny days to heat the water.
This year the committee is looking at
some minor improvements to the pool,
undertaking garden upgrades, painting
parts of the change facilities and minor
building repairs. In previous years
improvements have included shade
structures, as protection from the sun,
while out of the water. Heat retention
blankets to cover the water over night
to help keep it warm. Future planning
includes a repaint of the pool and
looking at ways to get consistency in the
water temperature and maintain 25/26
degrees C.
Opening hours are the same as in
previous years and we hope to see you
there
The opening hours will be:
School days 3pm to 6pm
School Holidays, weekends & public
holidays 2pm to 6pm.

The Lilydale Progressive - December 2010
Lilydale District Progress Association
Meeting on the 2nd November 2010. (21 people
present)
We had the luxury of a visit from the council's Harry
Galea who talked us through the reasons behind the
'pin down curb' soon to be installed at the village green.
He explained that as the road was sufficiently wide
enough to park a car and then have a wide vehicle pass
so people were in the habit of parking their cars there.
In spite of their being a yellow line. The purpose of the
curb is to make it obvious that parking in that area is
prohibited as it is a pedestrian crossing place. The
motion was passed following the discussion ‘to trial a
temporary pin down curb at the Village Green’. Mr
Galea has asked us to contact him if there are any
issues regarding the design during the trial period.
Following a motion to advertise for 'expressions of
interest to photograph a 'then and now' exhibition for
"Lilydale 1861 - 2011 Community" Then there was
some debate about the use of funds.
The LDPA is a long standing organisation and many of
the new members where interested to hear some of
the history around the accumulation of funds and their
intended purpose. (written records have either been
lost or destroyed one assumes)
A debate followed which noted that historically the
LDPA had a capital sum invested with interest to be
used for helping (without discrimination) anyone in the
district who is in need following a fire or flood event.
The secretary thanked the group for this clarification.
There was a motion formed on the night in anticipation
of Ben Lomond Water's Community Meeting to which
the LDPA was invited.
-‘BLW explore the full range of options for Lilydale
water which meet Australian Standards.’ Unfortunately
BLW was not taking motions the meeting was an
information night to tell the community what has
already been decided.
Finally the black board saga has been taken in hand
thanks to President Jeff Sims. You may have seen him
out there with a brush.
Next Meeting: 7.30 pm Tuesday 7th December at The
Old Court House.
Note: due to there being no Lilydale Progressive
newsletter in January Progress reports and notice of
meetings will be published in February's issue.
As usual any questions comments or approvals can be
forwarded to the Secretary LDPA John Gallagher 6395
1167. or by email.
Agenda Items for the December meeting.

held in conjunction with the Queen Victoria Museum &
Art Gallery, in Lilydale, 22nd - 30th October 2011.

Lilydale Playgroup
November has been a busy month for Lilydale
Playgroup and we welcome several new families to the
group. Everyone has been getting outside and enjoying
the warmer weather. The past few weeks have seen
the sandpit full of enthusiastic diggers and trucks, and
many of us have been asked to sample some delicious
sand “cakes”! We have also seen some young artists at
work at the easel with outdoor painting , and children
and parents went home decorated with lovely pasta
jewellery following macaroni necklace-threading! Great
fun was had by all at Bronny’s farewell party and there
was some spectacular cake-decorating and cake-eating
by children and parents alike.
With Christmas almost upon us we have some
important dates to share:
Playgroup Christmas party - Wednesday 15th
December 10am – 12 noon
Please bring a small festive plate to share, and dress the
part!!! We will be decorating the Christmas tree with
craft work made on the day and during the weeks
leading up to the party. Please bring a wrapped present
with your child’s name on it, to go under the tree to be
given to your child on the day (up to $10 in value).
Following the Christmas party, play group will close for
the Christmas period and will recommence on
Wednesday 12th January 2011. We are planning a
Beach Party by the sandpit in January – so get those
deck chairs and towels ready – watch for further
details next month.
CAN YOU HELP?? Lilydale Playgroup is in need of a
portable CD player and any children’s music CDs you
are no longer using. The children love to sing along and
shake their maracas and tambourines, but we have no

Lilydale Neighbourhood Watch
Report
14 people attended our November meeting including
our Guest Speaker Janine Rowe.
Janine Rowe gave a very informative talk on the “The
Happiness Kit” the book she has written. Janine was
also holding Happiness Classes during November at the
Court House.
Janine was featured in the Farm Watch Magazine which
is available free from newsagents, well worth a look.
You can get more information on what Janine is up to
on her website www.thehappinesskit.com or email her
at [email protected] or Janine Rowe
P.O. Box 324, Mowbray,Tasmania 7248.
Police Report:
Between the 17th and 18th of October 2010 unknown
offenders have attended the boom gate to the quarry
at South Retreat in a vehicle and have used a wheel
barrow, which they have brought with them, to carry
the stolen items back and forth. Offenders have
removed Diesel fuel from various heavy machines on
site, spilling large quantities in various areas.
Offenders have also removed 3 batteries from the
machinery.
Due to the amount of property stolen, it appears the
offenders were at the site for a long period of time and
due to the isolation of the area the offenders have not
been detected.
Police would like to remind members of the public to
report any suspicious behaviour to Bush Watch on
1800 333 000 or to Police on 131444. If the matter is
urgent, and requires immediate assistance, Triple 000
should be used.

Watch will be held at the Fire Station on the 13th of
January 2011 commencing at 8pm. This will be the last

Prosperous New Year. Hope to see you in the New
Year. Remember everyone is welcome to attend.

Our final carnival was held on November 17th with 22
teams travelling from various parts of the north. We
finished up still in first division with our night pennants
& a few of our bowlers playing summer pennants.

grant to help with a new roof on half of the building
plus guttering. Our next aim is to repair the rear fence.
A big thank you must go out to Doreen & Jeff for
organising the carnival food which is no easy task & to
Glenys for organising the Tamar Valley teams. We

Lions Senior Citizens Bus Trip
Lions Club News
As this edition goes to print, the Lions are hosting their
annual magical mystery tour of Northern Tasmania.
This year the Bus trip for our senior citizens has
ventured to the metropolis of Tomahawk. I could
prattle on about how well it went and how blessed we
were with the weather, but at the time of writing it
hasn’t happened yet. So below is a report for the day
that covers all eventualities. Please cross out the
entries that don’t apply and make up your own report.
Please be aware that the author has never been to
Tomahawk and so had to make up many of the “tourist
type facts”.
We’ve Got plenty of Moo POO
“The day started (well/badly/at sunrise), with all the
participants boarding the bus in (anticipation/
excitement/lederhosen). Dave Brown, our intrepid bus
driver, ensured everyone was (seated/comfortable/
intoxicated) and closed the (door/window/bar) before
heading off on our journey. The weather was (cool/
hot/dry/wet/all of the above) as we got underway. We
headed (north/south) and were soon enjoying the
(scenery/sleep/detour to get on the right road to
Tomahawk).
After an (hour/day/toilet stop at Lilydale Falls) the trip
proceeded fairly routinely with the only excitement
being felt when Bill Allen stopped (singing/talking
snoring). By the time we got to Scottsdale the Lions
had broken out the (lollies/Christmas Cake/gin) and
were feeling very (merry/merry/merry). A left turn
and we were off through the quaint village of Jetsonville
where both residents were on the side of the road to
wave their (tea towels/flowers/shotguns) at us.
Arriving at the Bridport turnoff we turned right,
despite Murray’s insistence that we should turn left and
go to his shack for a (cup of tea/game of celebrity
heads/working bee). Passed Barnbougle Golf course
we went with many of the excited sightseers spotting a
(golf ball/golf/club/foursome) in the dunes. We arrive in
Tomahawk and were greeted by the wondrous sight of
(Ringarooma Bay/Bass Strait/Steve Griffen in budgie
smugglers).
Well after that we just had to get off the bus for a
wonderful afternoon tea and the raffles. The first prize
of a (Lions Christmas Cake/return trip to Lilydale/
Ferrari) was won by (Alan Wilson/Alan Wilson/Alan
Wilson). With the afternoon drawing on we
reboarded the bus and headed back to Lilydale. The
Lions Club would like to thank all who came along for
making it such a (memorable/wonderful/eventful) day.
Spread the (word/enthusiasm/Vegemite) around the
community and maybe next year we can have a full
(bus/day/tank of fuel) to allow us to enjoy the day (even
more/again/ without having to push the bus back from
Lebrina).
See you next year!
ED: Fantastic report obviously everyone had a great/
woeful/enjoyable time. ;-)

don’t win you still have time to go out and buy (Mum/
Dad/Grandma) a present (by the Editor – please stop
doing that!). Sorry.
Lions Christmas Cakes
We have our supply of the ever popular Lions
Christmas Cakes. 50% fruit and 100% yummy, these
cakes remain good value with the prices unchanged
(despite the Global Financial Crisis. $10 for a 1 kg
cake and $13 for a 1.5kg cake is great value. We will
be conducting our regular cake drive on Friday 10 Dec
when we will hand deliver them to your door. The big
man in the red suit may also make an appearance in his
big red chariot.
The Lions at the Lilydale Markets
We will be at the markets selling all sorts of goodies.
Cheap books, plants (grown by our own Margaret
“Cundall doesn’t know what he’s talking about” Pryce),
Christmas cakes, and the best value, best tasting
sausage sizzle in town. We are there approximately
every 2nd market and all proceeds go towards the
club’s efforts to assist the less fortunate of our
community.
Well I had better go as the Deadline is Friday 19th Nov
and its 11:30pm on that day. Jayne refuses to publish if
it arrives after midnight – thank goodness for email.
Hope it works!
Tasmanian Regional Arts – Lilydale
Branch
The Branch has been very busy lately.
The Lantern Walk was held in June to celebrate the
winter solstice and welcome the coming of longer days.
This year it was held at the Lilydale Falls, which was a
very successful venue. The Lions Club provided a sausage sizzle and Launceston City Council provided a
caravan for serving hot drinks. The walkway looked
really pretty with all the lanterns lit. Many thanks to

The Lilydale Progressive - December 2010
Jillian Weston and Ian Williams for providing the car
parking area.
In August and September Bernadine Alting ran a two
day raku pottery workshop, with the help of Rynne
Tanton,. This was very popular and everyone who
attended enjoyed it enormously. There was a short
exhibition of the pieces made at the end of the second
day, and all participants took home memorable pieces.
In October Jenny Scott ran her tile workshop again.
This was so popular last year that she agreed to run
another one, and it was fully subscribed very quickly.
We hope she will agree to do it again next year as
there are still people eager to do the workshop. Come
to the next exhibition and see what can be done.
The Christmas Pantomime will be held on 11th
December in the Lilydale Memorial Hall. (See the ad in
this month’s Progressive.) The story this year is Jack
and the Beanstalk. The Valley Voices will be providing
support, and the entries in the colouring competition
will be on display. The winner of the competition will
be announced after the pantomime. (The colouring
competition is in this month’s Progressive.) Come
along and support your Regional Arts group and have a
fun afternoon. The Hall will open at 2 pm to view the
drawings, and the pantomime will start at 2;30pm.
We have been fundraising hard to raise money to
provide the Lilydale district with interesting and fun
arts events. We had a sausage sizzle at Gunns in June,
and will have had one at Bunnings on November 20th
when this is printed. Next year we hope to bring you
some fascinating exhibitions and some more great
workshops. Please watch the Progressive and local
businesses for details.
The Annual General Meeting will be held early next
year. Please consider joining the group and helping to
provide the Lilydale region with great arts experiences.
We are planning to repaint the power poles in the near
future, and to take part in the 150th birthday
celebrations for Lilydale in October 2011, so it should
be a really good year. Ring the secretary on 63951290
if you are interested in coming along. It’s a very
friendly group and we have fun social events too.
Lilydale Village Market
Who are the typical local market goers? Maybe the
ones who look for a bargain… but mostly they are the
ones who are looking for fresh, local organic produce.
The most sought after stall is a vegetable stall! People
are eager for old varieties of vegies and for real free
range eggs. People increasingly understand the need for
a sustainable life style, a sustainable eating habit; local
and organic. Everyone can contribute to a sustainable
living through your local village market.
If you grow your own vegies call Holly. All you need to
do is bring your surplus produce down to the Village
market every second Sunday, grab a wood fired Italian
The Lilydale Progressive - December 2010
pizza and enjoy the atmosphere of local musicians and
talk to locals; the Lilydale Village Market wants to be a
point of contact for all the local community.
Then you can hunt for a bargain from the Lions Club,
buy your Christmas presents, order a frame from
George, get felt from Jan, try Jillies Jellies, visit the
Market Gallery with local artists exhibitions, pre-loved
fashion, original jewellery and more…
In December the market will introduce a “Night
Market” on Dec 11 from 6-10 pm. Food Stalls are very
welcome… contact us to share your ideas…
everybody welcome. Cakes soups, hot and cold
meals… cheese tasting… we wait for your
contribution… simply come and enjoy the
atmosphere!!!
Market dates for December:

As we move even faster towards the Christmas Season
and are involved in our many preparations and end of
year functions it seems amazing that dates for functions
in 2011 must be finalized now.
The 75th Anniversary of the Tasmanian Women’s

others from around the sate.
Congratulations to Dorothy for gaining 1st prize for
mixed pickles, and 1st & 2nd prizes for her coat
hangers at the last Handcraft and Home Industries
competition, well done!
A local lady has supplied our branch with 31 pairs of
bootees, 10 baby beanies and 25 baby singlets for us to
give away were needed - thank you, for your generous
and continued support to our branch.

The Lilydale Progressive - December 2010
Health Solutions
from the Lilydale Pharmacy
Sunspots and skin cancer
Solar keratosis (or sunspots) is discovered in up to 50%
of people over the age of 40. These scaly patches
generally occur on sun-exposed skin of the face, back
of the hands, forearms, neck and the scalp of balding
men. These scaly, sandpaper-like patches vary in colour
from skin colour, to red-brown or yellow-black. They
are painless and sometimes tender. Sunspots are not
harmful, but sometimes they change into squamous cell
cancers, which can be fatal if not treated in time.
Because it is not possible to tell which sunspot will turn
into a squamous cell cancer, it is best to treat all
sunspots. The presence of sunspots indicates a much
higher risk of skin cancers.
One of the easiest things to do for sunspots is to apply
a 30+ sunscreen every day. Not only does this prevent
more sunspots from appearing, but also it actually
causes most sunspots to eventually heal themselves.
Doctors use liquid nitrogen as a simple and effective
method of freezing and removing the sunspots;
however they sometimes need re-treating. Freezing
sometimes damages the pigment cells and white spots
result on the skin.
For large areas of sunspots, there are some effective
creams. These creams have to be used regularly for
specified periods of time to be effective at removing
the solar keratosis. They cost about $50 or more.
What about Vitamin B3?
There have been media claims about Vitamin B3
(nicotinamide, niacin and niacinamide) providing
protection against sunburn.
Nicotinamide is used in our cells to generate energy to
fight the damage caused by the sun’s UV rays. When
UV rays hit our skin cells, they cause ‘free radicals’ to
attack and damage the cell. The nicotinamide can repair
the damage caused by the ‘free radicals’. However,
continued attack by UV rays will eventually overwhelm
the repair mechanism of our cells.
Research studies have shown that just 7 days of taking
a B group supplement doubled the ability of skin cells
to fight UV radiation in a laboratory setting. So, while
extra Vitamin B3 may sound like a great idea - it may
be helpful - but it is not a substitute for sunscreens,
hats or shade.
The best dietary sources of vitamin B3 are found in
beets, brewer's yeast, beef liver, beef kidney, fish,
salmon, swordfish, tuna, sunflower seeds, and peanuts.
Bread and cereals are usually fortified with niacin. In
addition, foods that contain tryptophan, an amino acid
the body coverts into niacin, include poultry, red meat,
eggs, and dairy products.

Lilydale Bowls Club News
By the time you read this our new clubhouse will be
officially open!
It has been a massive undertaking and the tireless work
of a few, with assistance from many, must be
acknowledged. (They know who they are.)
All who have seen the facility to date have been most
impressed and have offered support and assistance in
many ways. This a great example of what can be
achieved when a small community gets together.
We do remind people that it is a private club, but social
membership is open to all for the small fee of $30.00
per year. For this you will be able to enjoy the facilities,
reasonable bar prices, and events such as barefoot
bowls, twilight bowls, and Friday members’ jackpot
draw. Please note, you do not have to be a member to
visit, you are most welcome!
On the Pennant front all teams have had mixed success
to date. Men’s Div 2 Red has had wins on some rinks
against some stiff opposition, Div 4 Red, with a number
of novice players, has been very successful.
Congratulations guys! The Women’s Div 3 has finally
posted a comprehensive win against Deloraine, (well
done girls!) after a slow start. We still need more ladies
available for Thursday pennant so please consider this
great sport.
A recent highlight was a visit to the club by BARRIE
LESTER, Community Bowls Coordinator for Bowls
Australia, a recent Commonwealth Games Medal
winner, Australia’s Representative in the World’s
richest, ($150,000), Bowls Tournament in London in
January. You will have seen him often on TV.
Brodie Brown was the lucky junior to have a 1 on 1
coaching session with Barrie.
The green is rolling really well, so thanks to all the
greenkeepers, and the new shade shelters are much
appreciated.
Keep up the good work, and thanks to all the
VOLUNTEERS!

Lilydale District School is a Registered Training
Organisation (RTO) accredited to deliver Certificate 1
and 2 in Agriculture, Horticulture, Conservation and
Land Management and Food Processing (Wine).
Additionally, when a need is identified to deliver a
Training Package outside our scope, we form a
partnership with another RTO. Many of the courses are
self-paced and some may be accessed on-line.
For 2011 we anticipate being able to offer Business
Admin, Teacher's Aide, Hospitality, Tourism, Retail,
Children's Services, Aged Care, Disability Care,
Information Technology and Vet Nursing. As well, we
are hopeful that we will be able to add Automotive
Studies and Construction to our selections.
All students also undertake some TCE subjects,
including Maths, English and Work Readiness.
The above Training Packages are all recognised
Australia-wide and can be a pathway into studying a
chosen topic at a higher level. A work placement is
established to allow students to apply what they have
learnt in class. When this system works at its best,
students prove their worth to an employer and a job
can ensue.
If you are interested in any of these courses or would
like to discuss other options, please contact the school
office to arrange an appointment. We look forward to
hearing from you.
THANK YOU!
The Fair Committee would like to thank the
entire school community for the wonderful
success of the School Fair!
Without the support of the teachers, the admin
staff, the school attendants, the students and
families, the day would not have been as
successful.
Also a special mention of thanks to the Grade 10
students who organised the centre stage area.
Total amount of profit made was….$13,175.79!
Readers’ Cup Secondary Finals
On Wednesday November 17, five valiant 7/8
students participated in the Secondary Readers’
Cup Challenge at Scotch Oakburn Senior School.
Congratulations to Sammie Glover, Shay Hannah,
Shelby Lennox, Alicia Linnane and Grace
Subritzky for their hard work in preparing for this
event. Competing against four other high schools,
Lilydale’s team were a credit to the school. Quiz
questions on seven books were challenging;
however, their performance threaded together
several of the books and was noted for its
originality. Our team also demonstrated their
learning as they considerately critiqued the other
performances. A pizza lunch was enjoyed by all.
This year the Readers’ Cup went to the Prospect
High School team.

Reindeer's Story at Christmas
According to the Alaska Department of Fish
and Game, while both male and female
reindeer grow antlers in the summer each
year, male reindeer usually drop their antlers
late November to mid-December, whilst female reindeer
retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring.
Therefore, according to EVERY historical rendition depicting
Santa's reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolph to
Blitzen, had to be a girl.
We should have known... ONLY women would be able to
drag a fat man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one
night and not get lost! ☺
