Invitation to our Annual General Meeting

Communications from Mission Bay - Kohimarama Residents Association

We are holding our AGM on Tuesday 1 May and would love to see you there. At the meeting, we will outline our activities over the past year, and present our financial statements.

7:00 pm Tuesday 1 May
Kohimarama Presbyterian Church
34 Kohimarama Rd4 Kohimarama Rd

After the formal meeting, we have 3 speakers who will present updates on topics of real interest to our community:

Our local Councillor Desley Simpson will be updating us on the outcomes of the Council's 10 year Budget consultation, including what impact this will have on our rates, and how the extra money raised will address some of the city's problems.

Alan Minson, one of our committee members will talk about our rat catching programme

John La Roche from the Eastern Songbird Project, will explain this project and how it is intended to complement the predator-free islands in the Hauraki Gulf

Kit Parkinson, the Orakei Local Board Deputy Chair, will discuss plans to further improve Kepa Bush.
__

We will be electing a Committee to run the Association, and while most of the current Committee Members are standing for re-election, we would welcome new people to keep us moving forward. Generally, there is not a lot of work involved, although this does depend on the nature of issues that we deal with, and who chooses to be involved in specific issues. We meet monthly for an hour or so to discuss new and ongoing issues, and various members are assigned roles with respect to some of the issues raised. These roles could be as simple as writing a letter, undertaking a mail drop, or for those interested, leading our efforts on a major issue. Generally, the degree of time you put in and the areas you want to be involved in are up to you.

So if any of you would like to be involved and join the Committee, please just let us know by return email with your name, address and contact phone number. Alternatively, we accept nominations from the floor on the night.

Best regards
Don Stock
Chair
Mission Bay Kohimarama Residents Association Inc.

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

Original Art on Baseball Caps / Hats

Connie from Remuera

UPDATE 29.4 The Wisteria & Butterfly Cap is sold.

Hello everyone,

I am presenting a limited release of hand-painted artwork on Baseball Caps. There will only be 29 caps in this range. For now, please do have a look at the first seven Caps attached. I will post more in the future as I work on them.

Price per piece = $55.00.
Fabric look/feel is suede-like (not real suede). It is a really nice quality cap. You can zoom out each photo to view better.
Adjustable backstrap with metal clasp.
NOTE: Some Caps have more than one photo to give you views from different sides (I can send you more photos if required).

Mother's Day is just two weeks away. This would make a really memorable yet practical gift for that special person. OR...get it for yourself! Just know that when you are wearing it to brunch, on your walks or at tennis/golf, YOU are the only person in the world with this original piece of wearable art ☺️.

Pickup in Remuera or happy to courier:
P&p $16.00 (with signature)
Rural addresses +$5.50.
If you want it sent overseas, I am happy to quote.

For the remaining Caps that I will be painting, if you have any suggestions that you would like to see, or if you would like to order a cap with a particular bird/flower et , I am happy to consider. No portraits please! That would be too hard on fabric 😅.

Have a lovely weekend,
Connie.
PS. I apologise for the low photo resolution as I had to resize them down to be able to post.
