That was before we set up the Op Shop, which opened up in the little building near Foodworks, but back then there were no other buildings there, it was just a paddock\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Heather served as the President of the Ladies Auxiliary for three-decades and is still an active member at the Opportunity Shop located on Gell Street.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been a marvelous thing to be associated with. The Auxiliary has a great group of people and it is very satisfying raising money for important things such as the palliative care unit and the recent sterilising equipment\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Heather and Pamela, commonly referred to as Margaret, were commended for their dedicated service as part of National Volunteers Week on Friday, May 19.<\/p>\n<p>The pair were among ten volunteers to receive milestone-length awards, which collectively totalled close to 300 years of service.<\/p>\n<p>Pamela said she came to Bacchus Marsh in 1953 and joined the Ladies Auxiliary when her children started school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn 1961, my son went to school for the first time and the very next day I went to my first Auxiliary meeting,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was later appointed the role of Treasurer, where I stayed for 18-years before stepping down to go back to work for a little while.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have always remained a member and I have fond memories of years ago when we used to host an annual fete on the bit of land that is now the helicopter pad. Auxiliary members from Bacchus Marsh, Balliang and Myrniong used to all come together and have their own little stalls\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Djerriwarrh Health Services chief executive, Andrew Freeman said it was \u201cextremely important\u201d to officially recognise and acknowledge DjHS\u2019 dedicated volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDjerriwarrh Health Services is extremely appreciative of the contribution our volunteers make on a daily basis. Each and every volunteer make a real and valued contribution to our health service, our local community and our patients\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Pamela said it was an honour to volunteer her time to her local health service.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo work for the hospital is something great. Not every town has a hospital, but we have that here, and it is going ahead now in leaps and bounds and that is very pleasing to see\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vital volunteers\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Any volunteer is vital to an organisation and over 120 from Djerriwarrh Health Services attended a luncheon in their honour last week.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Freeman CEO DjHS, said the organisation has a proud history of volunteers, all the way back to the first volunteer in 1954.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are over 230 volunteers with us today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVolunteers play a vital role in the success of our programs. Without them, the programs would not be able to function.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTen volunteers today have reached a cumulative total of 300 years service.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have one ten year service award; four 20 years; two 25 years; one 30 year and extraordinarily, two volunteers have both clocked up 55 years of service as volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thank you all for the work you do and the contribution you make,\u201d Mr Freeman said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Service Award Recipients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>10 Years of Service<br \/>\n<\/strong>Lynette Hewat (Meals on Wheels)<\/p>\n<p><strong>20 Years of Service<br \/>\n<\/strong>Carmel Berry (Ladies Auxillary<br \/>\nValerie Dickson (Friendly Visiting)<br \/>\nCarmel Matthews (Meals on Wheels)<br \/>\nLynette Young (Meals on Wheels)<\/p>\n<p><strong>25 Years of Service<br \/>\n<\/strong>Janice McGuiness (Meals on Wheels)<br \/>\nBetty Nelson (Ladies Auxillary)<\/p>\n<p><strong>30 Years of Service<br \/>\n<\/strong>Alice Trask (Kiosk)<\/p>\n<p><strong>55 Years of Service<br \/>\n<\/strong>Pamela Broad (Ladies Auxillary)<br \/>\nHeather Linsdell (Ladies Auxillary)<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_720\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-720\" style=\"width: 199px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-720 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/themooraboolnews.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_0180-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-720\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carmel Berry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_721\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-721\" style=\"width: 199px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-721 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/themooraboolnews.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_0183-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-721\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Valerie Dickson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_722\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-722\" style=\"width: 199px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-722 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/themooraboolnews.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_0184-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-722\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lynette Young<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_723\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-723\" style=\"width: 199px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-723 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/themooraboolnews.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_0189-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-723\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Janice McGuiness<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_725\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-725\" style=\"width: 199px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-725 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/themooraboolnews.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_0192-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-725\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alice Trask<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_724\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-724\" style=\"width: 199px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-724 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/themooraboolnews.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_0191-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-724\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Betty Nelson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jessica Howard Heather Linsdell and Pamela \u201cMargaret\u201d Broad have donated more than half-a-century each to Djerriwarrh Health Services.
