WALWA COMMUNITY SHOP STILL GOING
STRONG AFTER TWO AND A HALF YEARS
The Walwa Community shop has now been
going for 21/2 years. The enthusiasm of our
band of volunteers and the support of our
community has made the shop such a
success.
We are now coming to the busy season when
lots of tourists are travelling through the area
and bringing money from out of town into
our community.
We now have a store stocked with summer
gear, lots of interesting reading and plenty of
bric-a-brac.
We are open three days a week; Monday,
Wednesday and Friday, 10:30am to 3:30pm.
We are always looking for volunteers so if
you have a spare few hours come in and
have a go at volunteering, it is a great way of
getting to know people and communicating
with out of towners.
At the moment we have some plants. Eggs
are also available and fruit and veg when
available.

BURROWYE FIRE SHED OPENING
In the 1952 bushfires the power pump was destroyed by fire and
replaced. Petrol and food accounts were submitted to Country Fire

representatives included Towong Shire Mayor David Wortman

and Walwa Police officer Andrew Green.
After a number of short and amusing speeches, the shed was
officially opened by Burrowye Brigade Captain Neil Mitchell in
conjunction with CFA Board Member Ross Coyle.
Euan Ferguson then presented 21 Burrowye volunteer firefighters
with medals celebrating their years of service. Euan stated that
these medals represented a total of some 650 collective years for
the group, with a number of members having in excess of 50 years
service. Certificates of appreciation were also presented to two
long time supporters of the group Bernice Mitchell and Shirley
Cheshire.
The day was complete with a BBQ lunch and viewing of the shed
and facilities. Thanks go to those members of the brigade who
helped organise the day.
Historical Notes from the Burrowye Brigade meeting minutes
(extracts by current Secretary Fiona Kucka)
Wireless was obtained in 1963 and the pump and engine was to be
replaced with "a more modern self-priming unit".
Meetings were held in private residences, at Burrowye School or
Mount Alfred School with equipment checks at Max Houston's
woolshed and preparations at Houston's Lagoon.
In 1969 land was donated for a fire shed and working bees held on
the shed in 1970-71 with CFA offering a concrete floor for the
brigade shed in 1971.
By 1970 the Guys Forest Brigade had ceased as members from
that brigade area had recommenced attendance at Burrowye
brigade meetings.
On 13 August 1971 a Picnic Cabaret Ball was held in conjunction
with Walwa to provide funding for wireless radios.
A meeting chaired by Cleaver Gadd was held on 11 March 1940 to
determine the establishment of a Local Bush Fire Brigade. The
boundaries of the brigade, to be named the Burrowye District Bush
Fire Brigade, were set and Max Houston was elected President,
Cleaver Gadd Secretary, Jas Grant and Ray Gadd Vice Presidents.
A membership fee of five shillings was charged.
In 1976 Hillas Houston became Captain, Paul Jeffries first became
Secretary and Noel Cheshire was a Lieutenant. In 1983 Hillas
resigned and Noel Cheshire became Captain. Ladies were to be
offered membership which saw Bernadette Cheshire become
Communications Officer in 1984, a role she still holds today.
A quick fill pump was acquired in 1986, and in 1991 a different
fire truck, which was replaced with the current one in 1996.
At a second meeting held later that month on 19 March 1940 it
was determined that the brigade should be a volunteer brigade with In 1996 the Brigade finally moved to the Corryong Group, a move

A meeting on 9 November 1941 moved to apply for registration
with the Victorian Bushfire Brigades Association and requested
that the Brigade become a member of Tallangatta group of
Brigades "in making application for one of the power fire fighting
units made available by the Forest Commission". In 1942 the
Brigade became part of the Auxiliary Force of the Volunteer
Defence Corps and a pack saddle with water tanks attached was
purchased. By 1946 there was a fire truck and application made
for a "Walkie Talkie telephone". In 1947 a list of 52 members was
sent in for registration.

WEDDING OF MATTHEW SMITHWICK AND MELANIE BROWNE
On 3rd October, Bron and Vyner Smithwick were delighted to
host the wedding of their oldest son, Matthew, marrying Melanie
Browne of Albury. It was a perfect day ... warm and sunny and
the marquee set up on the tennis court looked gorgeous. Mel had
chosen soft green tablecloths which serenely set off the floral
arrangements of proteas, waratahs and Geralton Wax. A lovely
touch was a table displaying the wedding photos of Matt and
Mel's two sets of grandparents as well as parents.
Mel's attendants were her sister, Kristen and best friend Katy (our
daughter-in-law). Matt had his brother Andrew as best man, and
his sister, Laura as grooms-person.
Thanks to all the family and friends who helped and contributed
in so many ways, and to the Lions' Club who helped to set up and
dismantle the marquee.

JINGELLIC TRAIL RIDES - 26TH SEPTEMBER 2015
Robbie McKimmie and Jen Vinge led about 40 riders
out of the showgrounds on a crisp morning, crossing
Horse Creek and through Jingellic School and then
onto Horse Creek Road and then up hill towards the T
tower in Jingellic Nature Reserve. Here they could see
the township of Walwa in the distance. (See photo
below) John Toohey our new Jingellic Show President,
Steve McHarg and Merrilee Royal had a “pleasant
drive” up the hill and took morning tea and fed all the
riders with many cakes and other goodies made by
committee members, as well as hot and cold drinks.

Also Kim from Wodonga found out about our trail ride
on Facebook, she decided to drive up the hill to show
her parents who were on holiday from England, our
countryside. What a ride they must have had. I heard
the details from Paul Emerson who travelled with them.

Then very slowly all the riders started the steep hill
decent carefully, with Ace Coughlan following last
to make sure all riders arrived safely for their BBQ
meal.
Meanwhile Bob Olman, Davide and I went ahead
and set up camp in the picturesque valley at
Kohlhagen’s farm alongside Horse Creek. Thinking
we had plenty of time to set up the marquee and start
preparing for their arrival. Dave started the fire and
put the billy on. Bob had to leave so I started
unloading all the food out of my car and then started
buttering the bread. All of a
sudden I heard the sound of
talking in the distance.
Looking up the hill I was very
surprised to see the riders
arriving early. Dave and I swung
into action, firing up the BBQ,
when hot, loaded it with
hamburgers, sausages and onions.
The kids were all very hungry but waited patiently whilst the food cooked and they and the adults had a cool
drink and billy tea. Soon everyone filled up with lunch followed by cakes of all description. Before long it was
time to head back to the Jingellic Showgrounds and on arrival everyone attended to their horse's needs. They
then had time to relax with a drink and catch up with new and old friends. Their evening meal was provided by
many show members, cooking their own favourite camp oven meals. This year there was a large variety of
meals with damper bread, followed by bread and butter pudding, apple pie, cream and ice-cream all while
sitting around many open log fires to keep warm.
Thank you to everyone that helped to make the day a great success.

Book Chooks
This month's book is called "The Lieutenant" by Kate Grenville.
It is the story of the arrival of the First Fleet and one man's
contact with the indigenous people who lived in the area of the
settlement.
Lieutenant Rooke is intrigued by their language and forms a
bond with the local people in the hope that he can learn to
communicate and record the language. Kate Grenville was
inspired by the First Fleet notebooks of William Dawes.
Old
Batteries
She weaves a wonderful story and shows great knowledge and
insight of astronomy, the hierarchy of the military, the problems
encountered in setting up the colony as well as linguistics.

Kate Grenville also wrote "The Secret River" which is a
wonderful read.

Walwa/Jingellic Craft Group
Our group has been meeting every month this year and we
have achieved quite a lot.
Most of our time has been spent sitting around doing our own
crafts which has been mostly knitting and having a good chat.
We have knitted for the yarn bombing of the Submarine in
Holbrook, Poppies for Anzac day and scarves, slippers and
blankets for Nepal.
Even though our group is small everyone enjoys the time to
just sit and have time to themselves.
So give John Blackburn a ring on 02 6037 1232 or
Jim Lacey on 0429 371 256.
They will pick up your old batteries as a fund raiser
for the Walwa Memorial Hall or
you can drop them off in the lane behind the Old
Walwa Service Centre which is now owned by Peter
Downs.
