Would Thames benefit from having more unique shops?

Reporter Hauraki Herald

Hi neighbours - Raymond May has abandoned hope of creating a unique antique business in Thames after the council requested he moves it.

He said 'Just Plane Interesting', a business with the intent to showcase artworks, antiques, and movie memorabilia, just wasn't meant to be in the town.

Will you miss this business? Would Thames benefit from having more unique shops?

You can help grow the Waikato Community Rugby Fund

The Team from Momentum Waikato

Waikato Rugby celebrated 100 years of service to the community in 2021, but due to the pandemic the long-planned celebrations were not held until late 2022.

A highlight was a black-tie event at GloBox Arena at Claudelands where over 300 people enjoyed a wonderful night of reminiscence, remembrance, reconnection and reflection on what our national game means to the Waikato.

Many people put a lot of work into making the evening a massive success by all sorts of measures. One was fundraising $21,000 for the good of the game through auctions and donations, which has recently been transferred to the Waikato Community Rugby Fund at Momentum Waikato.

The Fund grows in perpetuity, with distributed returns only used for the benefit of the amateur community rugby, forever.

Donations to the Waikato Community Rugby Fund are always most welcome, to find out more and donate click the button below.
