Te Horo Hall Society Inc. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Everyone is welcome to the AGM at 7.30 Monday 22nd at the Te Horo Hall. The hall is used by the community for regular exercise classes, celebrations (weddings, birthdays etc), fund-raising activities, sports events, a monthly market etc - and can act as a designated emergency response hub if needed.
The hall is managed by a committee of positive and proactive locals (who have a lot of fun doing this!).
We now need a new treasurer as our current treasurer is stepping down after several years. If you enjoy working with numbers and would like to get involved in your local community, we'd love to hear from you.
The Treasurer’s role includes:
• receiving and banking all payments made to the committee
• paying accounts and expenses
• keeping an accurate record of the transactions and accounts
• providing a financial update to the monthly committee meetings
• preparing annual financial report accounts for the AGM
• arranging an annual audit of the finances
• managing term deposit investments
.
If you’re interested or would like to know more, please message me or phone our current treasurer, Katherine on 0276712166.
If you would like to learn more about the hall activities, make suggestions or provide feedback to the committee - or volunteer to help in any way - we'd love to see you at the meeting on Monday.

Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?
If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.
We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
