Thanks so much to good-sport Ron Mark for offering himself up for this good cause. All proceeds will be going to the Carterton Indoor Pool Building Replacement Project.

Please help save our local pool, which serves so many - old and young - in Carterton and South Wairarapa. It’s the only all-year-round community pool in Wairarapa outside of Masterton.

Hairdresser

Philip from Carterton District

New to Carterton, been here a month and love it people are so much more friendly than the city where we came from. In need of a good hairdresser not too expensive. Any recommendations.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
