On Wednesday, 11th of April, Snowtown LAG made the voyage across Spencer Gulf. They took the new ferry across to Lucky Bay from Wallaroo.

There was great anticipation in the weeks leading up to the big trip. Trips to the chemist for sea sick tablets and prayers for calm seas and good weather. Our prayers were answered with perfect conditions.

There was great interest from the Snowtown locals and a couple of ring-ins who were visiting a relative and jumped aboard. There were 24 in the group that made the trip over to Wallaroo in time to catch the 10:45 ferry. Once on board some enjoyed a cappuccino from the cafeteria. Others chose to take it all in with the wind in their faces on the top deck. Approximately 2 hours of smooth sailing later we arrived at Lucky Bay and were chauffeured into Cowell by the local hotel owners for lunch.

After lunch people took the time to wander up and down the quiet street, enjoying the many craft shops. Others walked the jetty and mangrove walk while one even enjoyed a swim!

When it was time we were taken back to Lucky Bay to await the return ferry. Running slightly late we

eventually boarded about 6:30 for the ride home. Some played cards to pass the time. It was almost 9 pm by the time we arrived at The Boat Shed for tea. Some went straight for the ice cream, still too full from the steaks at lunch, while others had their feed of fish. By 11 pm the long day was over, when we arrived back at Snowtown.

It was definitely a trip well worth making. Everyone enjoyed the day – and the sleep afterwards!

When Brinkworth Primary School lost its school bus, after a long and hard-fought battle with falling student numbers and State Government bureaucracy the school community decided to celebrate the 65-year service and the lives of its drivers and students, past and present, with a memorial picnic on the last day of term.

The venue was Mallee Corner, some 10 km north west of town, at the site of the now-demolished

Mallee Corner School, which many Brinkworth area students attended from 1895 until its closure in 1942. The school bus, known as the Mallee Corner Bus, was owned and operated by Ethel Grigg and members of her family, with help over the years from at least 22 others, whose names were listed on the back of the day’s program.

Present day owner-driver, Moss Grigg, who has run the service for many decades, drove the bus to the picnic site, carrying the school children and picking up many old scholars en route, while others made their own way there, including the Lumeah Homes bus, carrying members of Snowtown LAG.

Moss was presented with the model bus from the top of a large, chocolate “thank you” cake as well

as framed pictures of the first and current buses driven by his family. In making the presentation school principal, Wendy Richards, commented that people were looking forward to a book of Moss’s stories of his experiences with students over the years.

Des Krieg spoke on behalf of the handful of people present who had attended the Mallee Corner school before moving on to Brinkworth. He started there in 1934 and recalled that his only school excursion was to the Lochiel Salt Works where the children had a ride on one of the buggies which normally carried salt. Des’s parents carted logs from Wirrabara Forest to build a shelter shed at the tiny school and he also described how the teacher fumigated the school with burning mallee gum leaves as a precaution against whooping cough. “This has turned the clock back 70-odd years for me” he concluded.

Another old scholar to take up the microphone was Dean Freebairn who started school in 1944. “It was a big adventure, being driven by Ethel Grigg on adventurous roads, in the old Stuart bus with two gears,” he said, adding that it was a good experience because Mrs Grigg wasn’t a strict disciplinarian.

Pastor David Eckermann then said a prayer of thanksgiving for the buses and their drivers and for the fact that, despite the sometimes-terrible condition of the unsurfaced roads, the school bus service had never had an accident.

The celebrations concluded with today’s school children singing an adaptation of the Brinkworth Area School song and with some help from the old scholars, chanting the war cry, both written by students in 1944.

On Sunday May 6th, a large

crowd gathered in the

Community Club to

celebrate Colleen

Fraser’s 80th birthday

Many travelled a long distance, with one of Colleen's co war workers travelling from Geelong to tell us some of Colleen's escapades during WW2. Claude and Pauline Cotton, formerly our Uniting Church minister, spoke warmly of Colleen and Wal and how much they and all the others who have lived in the Manse over the years have appreciated the support they always gave.

Colleen's youngest sister, Judy, told of the beauty of Colleen (inside and out) and how she coveted some of Colleen's party dresses when she was a small girl of 4 and Colleen was a beautiful teenager. She described Colleen as the heart of their family, always loving and giving. Daughter Robyn emceed the afternoon, son Tim read letters from his two sons who independently wrote of their love of Colleen and her food, especially her banana custard! Grandson George Inglis brought tears to all eyes with his expression of love for his grandmother and of her soul mate status.

Finally, Ruth Hayes spoke about her great friendship with Col, with which we could all agree. To me, Colleen is the heart of Snowtown and we are just so lucky to have her in our town The club was decorated with many beautiful flowers, only fitting for the woman who has had some hand in all flowers arranged for just about every function held in Snowtown for the past 50 years, and the afternoon tea, coordinated by Dot Hawkes was delicious and plentiful

Thankyou Colleen, for being you!Sally Michael

The season is up and running with already 2 home games at Snowtown – on what must be one of the best surfaces in country football.

The ‘A’s after a hiccup and loss to Eudunda have won the other 4 games to currently sit 2nd on the premiership ladder. The losses of Ryan Darling, Daniel Stringer, Brad Bell; have been partly covered by the recruitment of Simon Wiese and Patrick Keain. The competition seems far more even this season than last, so the promise of good competitive footy lays ahead.

The Reserves have only salvaged one win in the first 5 games, but under the enthusiastic coaching of Gary Zweck, the team promises to continue to improve. Returning players this season include James Cook & Craig Psaila; while Derek Altmann, Mick Jamieson and Kerry Warner can only play when home from up north working.

The Senior Colts have found it tough going and are yet to register a win. This being the transition year from Under 16’s to Under 17’s has meant that a number of key players from last season have concentrated their energies elsewhere. Lachlan Hewett moved away and is currently playing for Central Districts; so is Scott Atkinson. Alex Brackstone has played at Eagles as well as some A grade; Sam Clifford has played both Senior Colts and A Grade; while Ryan Lloyd has chosen to compete in motor bikes.

Meanwhile the Junior Colts under the tutelage of Daryl Andriske have played really well to chalk up 3 wins and a draw, with only 1 loss to a very powerful RSMU. Leaders, Josh Growden and Sam Dohnt, have shown the way, with contributions from all players; bearing in mind that a number first play in the minis and then run out in the Juniors.

Paul McCormack

Inspired by the verse written by the late Cliff Dolling to remember the Snowtown Premiership of 1974, this poem was penned to celebrate and acknowledge all

involved in the success of the Blyth Snowtown “Cats” A Grade in 2006.

Thirty years have passed since Snowtown last won in 1976, and it was the first senior premiership for the

Blyth Snowtown Club.

Joke of the MonthThere are no honest lawyers

A lawyer named Impos Syble was shopping for a tombstone. After he had made his selection, the stonecutter asked him what inscription he would like on it. "Here lies an honest man and a lawyer," responded the lawyer. "Sorry, but I can't do that," replied the stonecutter. "In this state, it's against the law to bury two people in the same grave. However, I could put `here lies an honest lawyer'." "But that won't let people know who it is!" protested the lawyer. "Sure it will," retorted the stonecutter. "People will read it and exclaim, "That's impossible!"
