A massive THANK YOU!
Following up on my last post for Karori Lions, we - and the Karori Food Bank - want to thank everyone who contributed to to the Food Bank collection last Saturday. The results of your generosity can be seen in the accompanying photo of the Food Bank's storage shelves which are now looking pretty healthy!
The Food Bank's services have been in heavy demand in recent months and this demand can now be met with good confidence for the next period.
We will be holding our next major collection in early November, but remember that the Food Bank always welcomes your donations at any time of the year, and they can be left in the labelled bin at the Karori Community Centre.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael
