Do you have Digital TV?

If not you may be eligible for

Government Assistance to get digital TV

under the:

Household Assistance Scheme

some Australians make the switch to

digital TV. It's designed to provide practical assistance to older Australians,

veterans and people with disabilities (or

their carers).

Am I eligible? You may be eligible for

the Household Assistance Scheme (HAS) if you:

own a working TV

haven't converted to digital TV

receive the maximum rate of one of

these payments:

Age Pension

Disability Support Pension

Carer Payment

Department of Veterans' Affairs

Service Pension

Department of Veterans' Affairs

Income Support Supplement.

How do I apply?

If you are potentially eligible for the

HAS, you will have received a letter

from the Department of Human Services inviting you to apply.

The letter invited you to call the

Department of Human Services on 1800

556 443 to confirm your eligibility. The

9th May 2013.

We strongly encourage you to apply as

Lilydale R & SLA

Anzac Day Service

A big thank you to the people

of Lilydale that attended the Dawn Service and the 11am Service for

ANZAC Day.

Especial ly the

school students, our Padre and all

the Lilydale Fire

Brigade, also the

members of the

RSL who helped in setting up, and

meals, I won’t

name everyone

you know who I’m referring to.

We had a great turnout for the Dawn

Service, and the weather was kind.

The 11am Service was held in the

Memorial Hall due to the weather having decided to turn bad.

The reports I received were that people

felt that it would be better to hold the

11am Service there all the time as

people could hear and see better.

Please let me know how you feel.

At the going down of the sun and in the

morning, we will remember them.

The Lilydale Progressive - May 2013 Page 3

David and Tom are still planning another Mystery Bus

Trip but with daylight saving finished it will now we

scheduled for later in the year.

The Lilydale Silent Policeman has come out of hiding and is in the care of the LDPA. Younger members of

the district are probably wondering what we are talking

about, ask your parents or grandparents they should

know.

Lilydale Football Club

May Games

4th Fingal v Lilydale

11th Uni-Mowbray v Lilydale

18th Lilydale v OLFC

25th Tamar Cats v Lilydale

This year we are wearing new guernseys (and they look fantastic), as our PREMIERSHIP TEAM of 2012 kept the

winning ones.

Our club would like to thank our generous sponsors of

2013:

Launceston Mitsubishi Motors, Lilydale Larder,

Inveresk Tavern, Launceston Linen Service,

Artec, R&S Rosier Construction Pty Ltd, Lily-

dale Hardware, Wraggs Supermarket,

Sunrise Bakery, Tas. Driveline, TFA Logging,

Mullins Bodyworks, Jax Quickfix Tyres, Harvey

Norman.

Please support these businesses and we always

welcome new sponsors on board to help keep our

great footy club kicking along.

Keep up the good work our footy volunteers, there’s

not too many of our locals rolling up their sleeve and

having a go giving up their precious time, but the small

committee are bloody thankful you do.

One of our young footy legends GREG NUTTING played his 250th game for Lilydale.

*Congratulations to you Greg.*

Lilydale Active Fitness Group

Our session on Tuesday evening is going as normal

from 7 pm to 8 pm.

Only Saturday session has finished now.

Cost $ 7 for the hour.

We know it is harder to get out in

winter, but we hope to see you all as

usual.

Cheers to all from the Fitness Group.

Lilydale Progress Association Inc

Attendance at the April meeting was one of the lowest

we have had for a while.

Catherine spoke about the recent successful Festival of

Wood. Indications at this stage are that it may become a bi-annual event. From the general discussion on this

topic Simon has been elected as the Lilydale Progress

Association events co-ordinator.

Peter spoke about the success of the Village Market

and it is possible that it may run through winter at an under cover venue. More about this in the June issue of

the Progressive.

Lilydale Activity Space is still an issue to be resolved,

two new members of the LDPA in Karen and Tori are

interested in being on the steering committee.

The water committee has had a couple of meetings to

finalise the ‘Love Lilydale Water’ project and things are

coming together. If you feel as passionate as the five

LDPA WC committee members are, then we will need your support for us to proceed with our action. An

information brochure will be circulated in the district

with interesting data about the quality of water we

should have (local) and the water we may be forced to

have (pipeline). It is believed there are options open to the residents of Lilydale to have their own choice.

Simon spoke briefly about the Village Green, if you are

interested in keeping the area clean and tidy Council

volunteer forms are available.

David spoke about the Neighbourhood Watch and

with Government cutbacks we have lost our local

Policeman.

Still no finalisation of the Falls Reserve proposed

changes.

Peter spoke regarding David Cleavers project of

Neighbourhood early response groups.

The Community Kitchen and the War Memorial

Lighting projects are currently being investigated.

The burden of regulations for Community events is being followed up by Mike and he will communicate

with the Launceston City Council regarding this matter.

The move by the Upper Piper Crafts group into the

Court House from the old Library area was discussed. There had been no formal request of the LDPA so the

legalities will have to be sorted out with the LCC.

Once again we put out an invitation to older and newer

members of our community, we welcome you to join

us on Tuesday evening at 7.30pm at the Old Library (Court House - 1951 Main Road, Lilydale). I know it is

not easy to leave your cosy homes on the now colder

nights but we can assure you we have a warm meeting

room. If you are new to the area why not become part of the community, we will listen to your ideas and

concerns.

Neighbourhood Watch

April Meeting

Ten people attended this meeting, including Constable

Gavin Storay, it was very pleasing to Gavin at the

meeting.

Police Report

Constable Gavin Storay reported that on the 15th

February 2013 a Mobile Phone was stolen from the

Lilydale Swimming Pool, two youths have been charged

over this incident.

With the end of daylight saving, police would like to

remind vehicle owners to check the roadworthiness of

vehicles. Make sure lights and indicators are working,

and as autumn turns to winter, check the condition of

tyres and brakes. It is the responsibility of the registered owner of a vehicle to make sure that their

vehicle is roadworthy.

Tasmania Police would like to remind the members of

the public to secure their businesses, vehicles and properties. There has been a recent spike in burglaries

of businesses (mainly entries). Offenders have targeted

cash left on premises. If you are a business owner,

please do not leave the daily takings at your business.

Even though this is a low crime area, vigilance is the key. If you see or hear something suspicious call police

on 131444 and report it.

If the matter is urgent, and requires immediate

assistance, Triple 000 should be used.

Next Meeting: The next meeting of the Lilydale

Neighbourhood Watch will be held 09th May 2013 at

7.30pm at the Lilydale Fire Station. Our guest speaker

will be Peter Gutwein

Come along and meet our Group we are always looking for more members.

Remember everyone is welcome to attend. Hope to

see you there.

Types of Fraud: General Tips to keep scammers at

arm’s length.

PROTECT YOUR IDENTITY: Your personal

details are private and invaluable – keep them that way

and away from scammers.

DON’T RESPOND: Ignore suspicious emails, letters, phone calls or text messages – press ‘delete’, throw

them out or just hang up.

DON’T LET SCAMMERS PUSH YOUR

BUTTONS: Scammers will play on your emotions to

get what they want.

RESIST THE PERSONAL TOUCH: Watch out

for scammers posing as someone that you know and

trust, or pretending to know you.

Don’t let scammers into your life – protect your identity.

Identity Theft: Some offenders target your mailbox

to obtain personal details about you. In this way your

identity can be fraudulently used by these offenders

who could apply for loans and finance without you knowing.

What can you do? Five steps to reduce identity theft

1. Shred all unneeded documents.

2. Search your car and remove any personal docu-ments

3. Secure your mail in a lockable letterbox.

4. Separate unnecessary cards and ID from your wal-

let.

5. Speak to someone if you suspect ID Fraud.

These steps are recommended by the Tas Registry of

Births, Deaths and Marriages. To find out more, visit

their website. www.bdm.tas.gov.au

It is very important to shred your discarded mail (especially your financial details) prior to putting it in

the bin and always be aware if your mailbox has been

tampered with. If you didn’t receive a statement or a

bill be sure to advise your bank or bill issuer.

Remember

There are no get-rich-quick-schemes.

Do not share account or credit card details or

personal identity information with anyone unless

you can verify their identity.

If your gut reaction is it doesn’t feel right then Stop,

Think and Reflect on why you’ve been asked to send

money.

If it looks too good to be true – it probably is!

Upper Piper Arts & Crafts Co-op

Old meets new.

Old and new meet in the Old Lilydale Court Room as

the Co-op has settled into the historic ambience of the court house room. Change has also attracted many

new members and their work to mix with the favourite

crafts of our original members.

With colder weather arriving why not save time and

money and shop in our shop, avoiding the annoying trip to the city whilst supporting your local community.

There are bargain and quality gifts for everyone, with

mother’s day, birthdays and baby showers all catered

for in our one stop shop.

If you want to be a new member please drop in and

talk to an older member (or young) and become active

this winter.

Living as a Senior in Launceston

New Members: Well, we managed to induct one of

our two new members this month. Welcome to the

club to Lion Heather Petersen, from Bangor. It is

wonderful to see a new face and someone who is committed to helping the Lilydale community.

Markets: Lions are looking to be at the final two

markets for the summer season. Hope you all come

along and support the town. It’s been great to see all the activity in town over the past few months.

Don’t forget too Moo Poo is still available. Call Steve

on 6395 1323. Only $5 a big bag.

Lilydale Village Market

The market has had a tremendous month. Customer

numbers and stall holder satisfaction has stayed high

even through the April seasonal changes. We've had oodles of locals bring down local produce for sale,

regular live entertainment, yet another feature in the

Examiner, as well as the regular stalls selling a wide

range of goods, new and second hand, the vast majority sourced locally.

Our Easter market ran the traditional Lilydale Egg

painting competition, with our winners featured in the

Examiner. The under 18 winner was the lovely Helena

from Launceston, and in the over 18 category the winners were locals Natalie, Gardie and Dee (any

connection of these ladies to the Market is of course

completely coincidental!).

The Lions rolled out a multimedia recruiting stand last market to raise awareness of this valuable local

organisation.

Many, including Phil Lohrey, Paul Alting and the LVM

committee, have been posting dozens of photos and

videos to our facebook and youtube pages. We've also celebrated a milestone, with over 200 facebook friends!

We're now gunning for 300, so please visit our page

and press the button!

The bar has expanded its range, now selling local honey

and the Progress Association's 150 years of Lilydale DVDs. Our new featured beer on tap is Rabbit Trap

Kolsch, a light German style ale brewed locally, a

Tamar Beer Festival award winner, offered in addition

to honey beer and mead, and local wines.

There are two markets left in the current season,

Sunday 28th April and Sunday 12th May. We're

currently looking at options for the winter season,

maybe a monthly market in the Memorial Hall.

Stay up to date with all our goings on by subscribing to our facebook page and youtube channel, checking out

our website, www.lilydalevillagemarket.com, or come

down and set up a stall with your produce or goods by

emailing us at [email protected] or call Natalie on 0418 688 250. The Lilydale Village Market is

community owned and run by the Lilydale District

Progress Association Inc.

Country Women’s Assoc -

Lilydale

I need to start with an explanation - did you understand the Easter riddle in the last issue? Well,

I didn’t write it egg-sactly how it should have been.

This is the correct version. Question - How can you

tell where the Easter Bunny has been? Answer - Eggs (X) marks the spot.

May 1st will be our Annual meeting as well as the

monthly meeting. These will be held in the Uniting

Church Hall, commencing 9:45am. Nominations for the

office bearers have been called - and now is the time to those doing all the ‘heavy work’ over the last year.

Without them, no Country Women’s Association, no

chance to meet, enjoy fellowship, and do ‘great’ deeds.

Shared lunch will follow.

The northwest groups is organising State Exhibition this

year, a wonderful showcase of all our creative activities.

It will be held this year at Latrobe in the Memorial Hall,

27th & 28th July. A state-wide craft day will be held at

Perth on 29th May where various workshops have been organised. In conjunction with this, Bridestowe

are sponsoring a competition using lavender - in a jam

or preserve, baking, and a craft article.

Lilydale Branch has been around 74 years. To celebrate

members went along to the ‘Lost Farm’ golf course restaurant near Bridport. . What a magical day,

weather beautiful after a cold start, not a cloud in the

sky, the sea all shades of blue, all viewed through a wall

of glass… and ‘wows’ from us. Brilliant, plus good meal, special company as a bonus. On the way home we

detoured into ‘Barnbougle Dunes’ golf course for

coffee.

CWA Sunday is 5th May with an 11:15am service at

Uniting Church, Lilydale, shared lunch afterwards.

Cheers for now.

Lilydale Lions Club

Lions Youth of the Year: The Lilydale

Lions Club hosted the NE Tasmanian final of

the Lions Youth of the Year competition. Five very

impressive young members of our community impressed the judges. The winner will go on to

compete against the Southern and North Western

finalists, for the honour of representing the state in the

national competition. The club was commended for

its hosting of the finals, so well done the President Lion Helen, and Regional Chair, Lion Amanda.

Teddy Bears’ Picnic: In last month’s Progressive, I

promised to report on the Teddy bears Picnic.

Unfortunately it had to be postponed due to inclement weather. We are very sorry, and are planning to

attempt to hold it in September. So keep your eyes

peeled for information and keep Teddy warm over

winter (if he isn’t hibernating).

The Lilydale Progressive - May 2013 Page 13

Influenza or flu?

Influenza, or flu, is a highly contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. There are three

main types of influenza virus that cause infection in

humans - types A, B and C - and many sub-types or

strains. Influenza can occur throughout the year but

influenza activity usually peaks in winter.

Influenza is a vaccine-preventable illness but a new

vaccine needs to be given each year because influenza

viruses change constantly. A new influenza vaccine is

prepared each year to best match the strains predicted

for the next influenza season.

What are the symptoms?

People with influenza typically experience some or all

of the following symptoms:

fever and chills

cough, sore throat and runny or stuffy nose

muscle aches, joint pains, headaches and fatigue (feeling very tired)

nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea (more common in

children than adults)

Some symptoms may last for more than a week. Some people may also experience very mild symptoms,

particularly if they have some immunity from a previous

infection or vaccination.

Seek immediate medical advice if the illness quickly

becomes worse or if any of the following occurs:

shortness of breath or rapid breathing

chest pain

confusion or sudden dizziness

persistent vomiting

How is it spread?

Influenza viruses are mainly spread by droplets made when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Influenza

can also be spread through touching surfaces where

infected droplets have landed.

People with influenza can be infectious from the day before their symptoms start. Adults are most infectious

in the first 3-5 days of their illness, while children

remain infectious for 7-10 days, and people with

weakened immune systems may be infectious for

longer.

Who is at risk?

While anyone can get influenza, the following people

are at higher risk of complications from influenza

infection (and are eligible for free annual influenza

vaccine):

All individuals aged 65 years or older

All Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander peoples

aged 15 years or older

Pregnant women

Individuals aged 6 months and over with medical

conditions predisposing to severe influenza, namely:

Heart disease.

Chronic respiratory conditions, including

severe asthma

Other chronic illnesses requiring regular

medical follow up or hospitalisation in the

previous year, including diabetes

Impaired immunity

For people who don’t fall into any of the ‘free

immunisation’ categories, and wish to have a flu

immunisation, you will need to get a prescription from

your doctor, which will cost about $15 at the pharmacy.

Take action to stop the spread of influenza by

remembering to:

Cover your face when you cough or sneeze and throw used tissues in a rubbish bin. Try to cough

into your elbow and not your hand

Wash your hands thoroughly and often. Wash hands

for at least 10 seconds, especially after coughing, sneezing or blowing your nose, or use an

alcohol-based hand rub

Stay at home until you're well. Wait at least 24

hours after your fever resolves so you that you are unlikely to infect other people. Keep sick children

away from school and other activities

Call ahead to see a doctor. If you think you may

have influenza and you need to see a doctor, call first so the clinic can take precautions to reduce the

risk to other people

Senior Citizens

What a wonderful Easter we had weather wise. I would

like to thank everybody that bought tickets in our

Easter raffle, we had a terrific response.

Our winners were:

1st - E Weston

2nd - Jeff Sims

3rd - V Chick

Our club is gradually getting smaller and smaller, we

would like to see some new faces. We are open

1.30pm to 4.30pm on Fridays so come along and have a cuppa.

I will only write in the Progressive every 2 months as

we will not be having any carnivals this year. With

much disappointment the Tamar Valley has been closed as there wasn’t any person willing to take on the

Secretary or Treasurer’s role, as Gladys has done it for

the past 6 or 7 years. A big thank you goes out to

Gladys for the work and time she has put into the

Tamar Valley.

As there isn’t any more news I wish everybody good

bowling until June.

Festival of Wood

Art Students from Prep/1 Years 4/5, 7/8 and 9/10 were involved in creating works for

the Festival of Wood. They were fortunate to work with artist Ritchie Ares Dona who developed folded book technique to make a Tree of Knowledge. The tree is

now located in the school Community Library.

Posts were also created: Winning Post, Spot the Post, Post it notes Post, Finger Post,

Postage Post, Post it and Post er.

Students also created a large canvas depicting Lilydale township; and some ideas on

imagery for the Festival working with local artist Paula Crook.

Two recycled characters, Lily and Dale were

also created. An amazing productive input by the Art Department – well done and thank you

to all students, staff and artists who contributed.

Lilydale Swimming Carnivals 2013

In March we held both our Year 3-6 and Year 7-10 swimming carnival at the Lilydale Pool. Well done to all of our students who participated and braved the cold water for their houses! Thank you to our SCR

for cooking the BBQ and to the Senior House Captains for assisting with various duties. Thanks to all of our parents and other family members who came and supported our swimmers. Thank you to all staff

involved on these days for your hard work.

Both Carnivals ran very smoothly with nice weather. It was great to see our students enjoying

themselves, especially with the fun novelty events.
