From Go to Wow! An evening of family history (Wednesday)

Dee from Cambridge

Something for all levels of experience.

An insight into researching your family history with Richard Cato and others from the NZ Society of Genealogists (Te Awamutu Branch).

No matter what your level, or where you are at with your research, there will be something for everyone, including starting out, best resources, DNA as a research tool, writing up your research to create a story and publishing (whether that is a family story or as a family reference)

The evening will be supported with a week long display in the library from 1-7 August.

Did you submit on the city council's long-term plan?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

Hamiltonians have spoken out on the council’s budget plans with the city’s massive proposed rates hike a lightning rod for residents already struggling with rising costs.

With more than 3000 submissions landing on the Hamilton City Council’s Draft Long Term Plan the hot topic is unsurprisingly the proposed 19.9% rise, which itself lands in a cost of living crisis and limping economy.
