From the creators of Celtic Force, Scottish Power promises to entertain their audience with magnificent tales of Scotland and Ireland, presented through beautiful songs, vibrant dance, blazing fiddle playing and of course the amazing yet unique sound of the pipes and drums.

Lark Distillery will be offering free whisky tasting in the foyer and there will also be the opportunity to win a fantastic hamper of Lark Distillery products that a lucky patron from each performance will be able to take home with them!

Glistening at the Sea

Lion Walter took this photo as he paddled past in his kayak. The
Spirit of the Sea is looking good from the water. The water fountains
keeping the base wet look a little silly. Maybe they can turn them off
or re-think that bit. Other than that it is attracting the tourists
like flies!

Magic Show 2010

The Magic Show was again a great success! This time held at Devonport high School as opposed to the DEC where we have held it in the past. Over 500 sponsored and invited guests from the community attended the two sessions, including primary school children, the elderly, mentally disabled people,... According to President Lion Jenny the juggling act was incredible this year, and Michael Boyd's disappearance act where he disappeared from stage and re-appeared in the audience was pure magic. A big thank you to all involved in ushering and organising the 2010 event. What will they do next year! The travelling magic show tours Australia and New Zealand every year providing a once-in-a-lifetime experience for disadvantaged, sick or disabled children.

Adopt a Highway

In April this year we adopted the stretch of Bass Highway from the Latrobe hospital roundabout to the Devonport information bay. Although we see plenty of signs about that advertise who adopted various bits of highway, our sign is still not up. The reason for this is that the signs we see were from when the Department Infrastructure Energy and Resources ran the program. Now that Conservation Volunteers is organising the cleanups new signs need to be made up. This will hopefully be happening in the near future!
