The very good news is ....Book Sale Sunday !!
While we are now still in Covid Level 2, the Tauranga Rotary Book Sale at Harvard Way Mount Maunganui cannot be open Friday 5th or Saturday 6th March.
But since we will drop to Level 1, we will definitely be open on Sunday 7th March from 9 am until 5 pm, and also the following weekend, Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th from 9am until 5pm.
What a great opportunity to come and restock your bookshelves, while also helping worthwhile causes in your local community! If you have been here before, you will know it is well worth a visit, because we have 1000s upon 1000s of books. It is really easy to find your favourites since the nonfiction is sorted by topic and the fiction is sorted by author!! We also have jigsaws, and games, cds and dvds and art.
Hope to see you there!
If necessary, please contact Ann Pritchard on 07 543 5350.

Multi Level Housing Popping Up In Our Neighbourhood
You'll have seen masses of multi storey developments in the neighbourhood - all part of Plan Change 33. Developers can build 3-level housing virtually anywhere. There's about 20 Blocks being constructed in our Patch with masses of property already sold and waiting for processes to complete before construction begins. The rules are listed on Council Website. It sure is controversial.
