Reward offer for gear stolen from field days

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A man was shocked to find $20,000 worth of boating gear stolen during the Central Districts Field Days.

Brock Terry, who manages Taupo boating business Trev Terry Marine, was at the annual event displaying some of the company's boats when they were stripped of depth sounder and GPS units.

"They have taken four boats' worth of gear and fully stripped the boats so it has been someone who knows what they are doing," he said.

He said he is offering a $2000 reward for anyone with information leading to the return of the stolen electronics.

"It happened before lunchtime on Monday, March 17, as we had a boat picked up then by a trucking company and it was gone before they got there," he said. "It has been reported to police but we haven't heard anything since so get in touch with us or police if you know anything because there is a reward for getting the stuff back to us."

Slow Woven Textile Studio Open Day

Natasha from Ashhurst - Pohangina

Hi Neighbours! I am a weaver and fibre artist who works with natural fibres to create beautiful, one-off pieces inspired by the native plant life of Aotearoa.

Join me in my Ashhurst studio next Sunday, the 4th of January, for the Slow Woven Textile Studio monthly open day. You can learn about weaving, enjoy demonstrations and even weave your own cute and colourful mug rug to take home for free.

I share the studio with my dad, rural artist Graham Christensen, and his work will also be on display.

Sunday 4th of January, Open 10am-4pm
84 Glenburn Road, (off Napier Rd) Ashhurst.

Please note that number 84 is at the very end of Glenburn Road - so wind your way up the hill and it's at the very top.

The studio is open to the public on the first Sunday of each month.
