FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK editor@waterlinenews.com.au Welcome to the July issue of The <strong>Waterline</strong> <strong>News</strong> . Winter is well and truly with us as we enter the second half of the year. Snow fell in Grantville and The Gurdies on June 24, which I believe was the first time for 30 years, great excitement for those who saw it. Snow also fell at Tarra Bulga National Park last month which gave us our great front cover photo which prompted our page 25 On the road - places to go choice for this month. It hasn’t been 30 years since snow fell at Tarra Bulga but snow doesn’t often fall there.

Brian Lloyd, Faye Paddon, Jackie Tait, Jenny Bartlett, and Mark Rutherford. Well ....winter is upon us, a time for sitting in front of a warm fire and enjoying a warming "beverage" or two with friends, and thinking of how nice it will be when Spring comes and we can all be out fishing, boating and walking the track again.....at the moment it is just for the truly dedicated.....and those with truly cosy wind proof coats!!!! Saturday June 4 was our last General Meeting at the Corinella Community Centre....a wonderful turnout of members and visitors. It was a very informative and positive meeting. If you are looking to share your passion for life in Corinella, we would love you to come and join us. The next meeting will be on Saturday the August 27 at 10 am. The long weekend in June saw Corinella Community Centre hold it's 26th Annual Traditional Art Show....you may have noticed the coloured LED signs on the Highway, droves of people did, from all over Gippsland and Melbourne .....over 500 people were inspired by the quality works of Art on display by mostly local Artists, and resulted in a record number of sales.

On July 1, I was one of approximately 50 people who attended the first public meeting, after our "big win" of the Regional Art's Victoria, Small Town Transformation Grant....a pretty good turnout for a such a cold, wet night. Lots of artistic people, lots of enthusiastic people, tentatively, but with "passion born of hope to see something amazing" take it's first steps towards an incredible journey that will bring our <strong>Waterline</strong> towns together, with a fellowship and positivity that previously could only have been dreamed about. Everyone, young and old, can be involved in this amazing opportunity in so many different ways, most will probably choose to be a spectator at one or all of the various events that will take place over the next 2 years, so keep watching out.... The best is yet to come ! Our Small Coastal towns are full of hope for the promise to be fulfilled and be TRANSFORMED by this wonderfully creative, inspiring project entitled " The Edge of Us" CORONET BAY RATEPAYERS & RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION Lyndell Parker.
