Fundraising for Chess Olympiad
WCM Vyanla Punsalan, my 14 year old niece, is part of the women's team which will represent New Zealand at the 43rd World Chess Olympiad to be held at Batumi, Georgia from 22 Sept to 6 Oct 2018. This is a major event that involves teams from over 150 countries. It will be much appreciated if you can help her cover expenses for the trip thru this givealittle page.

Chess is not currently funded by NZ govt that's why we are raising funds to help Vyanla cover the costs for attending the Olympiad.

Total cost needed to raise is $7,831.20.
Breakdown is as follows:
$3,731.20 return ticket for Vyanla and 1 parent
$50 cab to and from airport in Georgia
$2,250 hotel (15 days)
$1,800 food
Thank you in advance!!!

Auckland Harbour Bridge summer works
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi is carrying out essential maintenance on the Auckland Harbour Bridge this December and January. The southbound clip-on lanes will be closed (24/7) from 26 December to 5 January for road resurfacing. Night-time lane restrictions will be in place throughout the summer for recoating work on the bridge. Traffic will still be able to travel in both directions at all times.
