Free food, free shuttle, free jab, anyone?
If you've been putting off the Covid jab, there are lots of reasons to bite the bullet on Saturday, October 16. There's just enough time to get both jabs before seeing the rellies at Christmas if you get the first one now. Clinics at Redwoodtown School and Westwood Business Park will run 9am to 4pm, and at MySpace Marlborough Youth Trust 10am to 3pm, with a barbecue 11am to 1pm. And St John is running a free shuttle all day - just phone 0800 333 781 before 3.30pm on Friday. Click the 'Read More' link to see how your suburb's vaccination rate is looking.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
