Halswell Scouts Quiz Night
We're fundraising to take 32 Scouts and 10 leaders to Jamboree in December 2019. Being held at Mystery Creek, Hamilton, this is a fabulous opportunity for our youth.
We have a Quiz Night on Friday 13 September 7pm at Te Hapua Halswell Library. $15 per ticket, 6 people to a table. Get a table together (or two!), and pit your skills against everyone else. Raffles on the night with gorgeous prizes (think restaurant vouchers, think fish/meat smoker, and heaps more). BYO drinks and nibbles, soft drink and chips will be provided.
Email me at andrea.mears@cdhb.health.nz for details.
Some Choice News!
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!
