A bumper community market is planned for Sunday, 5 April, Easter Sunday at Te Horo Hall, 10.00am to 12.30pm. As well as fresh, seasonal produce, plants and seedlings, locally produced olive oil and preserves, plus a range of handcrafts and jewellery, there will be additional stalls to celebrate the season and live music — it’s a great opportunity to support local producers and craftspeople.
If you would like to support your community by serving on the committee of the heritage Te Horo Hall, then come along to their AGM on 15 June at the hall, 7.30pm.
“A number of long-standing members will be stepping down and we need to replace them,” said hall spokesperson, Sharon Hurst.
Ms Hurst said it was a good idea, if you are interested in being part of the committee, to make yourself known to an existing committee member ahead of time, “and get support for your nomination.”
