UPDATE ON SINGFEST18
Hi Neighbours, I now have full details about the SINGFEST18 event being launched this weekend, and the Organiser has written about it, as follows:
Over the past few months we have been talking to people in the CBD, the business sector & the ChCh City Council, and we have listened to some amazing, often world class, choral performances which never reach beyond the walls of churches and indoor venues. We felt it was time to bring it to the people.
And so to that end, we are launching SingFest18, a short, weekend festival of singing to be held in outdoor spaces where possible, in the CBD, from 24-26 August 2018. It is hoped that this will become an annual feature on our calendar &, who knows? it may turn into a week-long celebration in the future!
This event will be shaped by the contributions of our singing community and represent a wide range of ensembles.
The timing of the event has been carefully considered so that groups are all at their performance peaks.
It also falls nicely after The Big Sing Secondary Choirs Regional Contest in June & the Finale (30 Aug-1 Sept).
I will now add the two pages of events of what choir is singing where and when, although on the first page, they have missed out SOUTH BRIGHTON VOICES' performance at Cathedral Junction at 10.00 a.m. on Saturday, as advised to you all in my previous post. I think this whole weekend is going to be a great event; don't miss it!

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
