Fire 🔥 at dominion park

Norma from Nawton

I just took my dogs for a walk and three young kids were busy setting fire to the big purple slide ,they put a rubbish bag under and inside of it and set it alight,it was going for a while,noe there is a big hole in it .smashed all the glass bottles all over the place ,they ran away when I said I was phoning police .i found a bottle and had to pump water to try and put it out ,I managed pretty much till a man I think from council came as saw me and was obviously wondering what I was doing ,and he put the last bit out for me.the three were wearing hoodies and had scooters ,if you are the parents ,give them a good hiding,take away all privileges .this has ruined this for other children now if we go to level two next week ,for them to play on .thoughless little thugs.hope the cctv camera was working .

And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...

Prospa

A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.

The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.

The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'

Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
