There are opportunities for young children from 8 years to 14 years to join our club and take part in building and operating model railway at our club rooms at 13 Blake street Rangiora. New adult members are also welcome to join. You do not have to own a model railway to be a member of our club as we have it all under one roof.

We also have a Thomas and Friends layout for young children to operate during the Rangiora Sunday Market and on Saturday mornings.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
