Handmade gifts for Christmas
Every year I wrack my brains for new stocking filler ideas for kids and family members. I like the idea of hand made stuff so for the November issue of Te Kowhai News, I thought I could publish photos (with contact details) of hand made gifts for Christmas.
If you make anything that would be a cool Christmas gift, get in touch! Send a photo of your item and the contact details you'd like to share for purchases to tekowhainews@gmail.com and I will publish colour photos on the inside cover of the magazine in the November issue.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
