The WINCH project (Winchelsea Integrated Neighbourhoold Community Hub) is well under way, with a deadline of August 2011 for completion. Comprising a new building in place of the existing clubrooms at the Eastern Reserve, facilities will include change rooms, toilets, storage rooms, a gymnasium, general-purpose room big enough to seat 250 people, and a commercial kitchen. The Shire is currently asking ALL community groups to pass on details of what they would like to see built into the WINCH - but time is tight, so responses need to be received in September.

Extensive roofing work, replastering and a full commercial kitchen are all part of a comprehensive plan not expected to complete until December. The major facelift is a consequence of a funding allocation of over $1 million. |

 "Tiffany Eckhardt and Dave Steel have joined forces to produce their new album "Sunday". It is a collection of songs written by Tiffany, recorded and produced by Dave in their home studio near Winchelsea.
Tiffany's resolutely open-hearted approach to song writing and performing draws her audience in. Dave Steel is also an award-winning songwriter and as an instrumentalist has played with many of Australia's best known artists. The combination of the two is compelling, acoustic guitars, harmonica, mandolin, dobro - Australian folk/roots at its best.
"Sunday", her seventh, is a watershed album. An album that matches vivid, emotional storytelling with the expansive atmosphere of world-class producer and multi-instrumentalist Dave Steel, it's the most fearless and accomplished self-portrait of Tiffany's career"
Michael Dwyer, The Age
The new album Sunday is on sale at the Winchelsea Larder cafe & shop. |
