A little bit about me...

Carol from Paraparaumu

Hi my name is....Carol. My husband, Jim and I moved to Kapiti at the end of '21 from Auckland. We moved to get away from Covid in Auckland and also the violence that seemed to be building there. Also, importantly, so Jim would spend time with his elderly mother in Raumati. He had a job transfer so that was something, although he didn't stay there long, he started work for a little place in Otaki as a mechanical engineer at which he is very good and very much enjoyed. Unfortunately, that work is no longer there and we are faced with the prospect of selling our house and moving, probably back to Auckland, because that is where the work is. Hard times for lots of people, but it is arguably worse when you're in your sixties and broke!!! Any similar stories out there?

Save Te Horo Hall fundraiser

Julie from Otaki District

I am running a scavenger/treasure hunt, car rally event on 26th May to raise funds for the refurbishments needed to make the Te Horo Community Hall earthquake resilient.
Directions are given to follow a route and clues to identify markers along the way. There will also be a list of items to collect along the route.
This is intended as a family activity, although not exclusive; a group of friends would have equally as much fun. The cost is $40 per car; all funds go to the cause.
It would be really helpful to get an idea of numbers interested in this event. Please let me know, no commitment required, if this is of interest to you.

Missing Playgroup Slide

Kate Neighbourly Lead from Raumati Beach

Missing! Our playgroup slide! The slide belongs to the Kapiti Uniting Parish, Raumati Church at 10 Weka Road, Raumati Beach. The last time it went missing it was found at Weka Park. Have you seen it? Or if you have taken it by accident, can you please return it. The preschoolers missed it this morning. Thank you!
