Challenge yourself for Starship - join Swimathon 2018

Annie from Murrays Bay

Hi this is Ann from Murrays Bays
Have you or your children ever needed Starship?, we all know the magnificient work they do. Would you like to help us raise funds? Join us in our Barfoot & Thompson Swimathon.

The Barfoot & Thompson employees dig deep each year to come up with new and fun ideas to raise money. We run Quiz Nights, Sausage sizzles, Bollywood nights - all sorts of things. I run a Swimathon every two years. This will be my fifth one and so far we have raised over $110,000 for Starship just by swimming. In 2016 we raised over $45,000 which is going to be a hard achievement to beat ( but gives us an awesome goal). Can you help?

Dig out your togs and jump in the pool for the 2018 Starship Swimathon! Enter as an individual and aim to swim a certain distance or time, or enter together as a team and swim for the full five hours. All abilities welcome – this is your personal challenge to raise money for Starship. Lots of exciting spot prizes will be given throughout the day.

For more informaton call me on 021 664 832, or email me at afortune@barfoot.co.nz

Many thanks
Ann

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
