Couch - 5 km
We start our Couch- 5 km on Tuesday 1st Aug at 6:45 pm.
Come and join us. No pressure. Just a small group of keen and eager people with a plan to nail 5km.
6 weeks, 3 times a week (Tues and Thurs at 6:45 pm and Sat at 8 am).
The first session is 1 min run, 1 min walk repeats. The route is as flat as can be and the session is just 20 minutes with some extra warm up and stretches thrown in. Easy peasy.
No charge just a good attitude a determination.
Meet at OWC, 278 Beach Rd, Campbells Bay.
See you there.
And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
