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!

Electricity Black Outs

Don from Whalers Gate

If you have electricity in your home, maybe it is time to install a wood burner in your home.
A wood burner keeps you cosy, heat hot water and cook your meals.

There is nothing like a fire box and seeing the fire glowing.

If you decided to install wood burner, your home will be class has dual home

Then you have choice electricity or wood burner.

Then you are not reliance on electricity where these generators companies interest is making money for share holders.

The CEO of these companies are criminals and should be sent to prison because they should be held accountable for this mess.

These CEO are paid big salaries and bonuses

It bloody unbelievable we have problems with electricity supplies and we are not even in winter yet.

The Energy Minister said they inherited this problem from the last government. REALLY
