South Brighton Voices - Concert
Hi Folks, it's concert time again, and I'm pleased to advise that South Brighton Voices will be holding their winter concert on Sunday 23rd June at St Martin's Presbyterian Church, 43 St Martin's Road, at 2.00 p.m. See poster below. We have a great programme, so hope you will be able to join us for this concert, and afternoon tea.
We are also looking for new singers to join us. We are a friendly bunch of people, and enjoy social gatherings in the winter and at Christmas. We practise on Wednesday evenings from 7.30 p.m. until 9.30 p.m. (with a cuppa at 8.30), at New Brighton Union Church, on the corner of Union and Collinwood Streets. If you would like to come along one evening, and join in our practise with us, please contact our Secretary, Helen Buxton, on 388 5456 or via her email, helenevz@xtra.co.nz

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
