For those who are unsure of what yarn bombing is, here is a definition for you: yarn bombing is type of street art that covers a tree or statue in yarn. The yarn can be knitted or crocheted,
Community Houses and committees across the district have been contacted to invite them to participate in this project. We are looking for knitters and crocheters to join forces and create poppies to cover the trunks of trees for this year’s ANZAC celebrations.
The outline of the project is; ANZAC Poppy Tree project 2017.
* Each community to identify a tree that’s trunk can be covered in knitted poppies – ideally the tree would be in a central place
* Organisations such as Community Houses coordinate groups / people who are willing to knit poppies , crochet or any other type.
* These organisations provide the drop off point for completed poppies
* A day /time is selected prior / close to the 1st April to attach the poppies to the selected tree
* It would be great to have a 500 word story that depicts ANZAC for your community to go with each tree
We have a small pool of red wool available and further donations are requested.
Several different patterns are available and these can be emailed out.
For those that have an RSA in their community it would be great to connect with them and get some of their members to participate.
If you feel this is a project that you or your organisation could be part of please let me know by Friday the 10th of February 2017.
To participate in this awesome project, please contact – Lianne van den Bemd (WDC)07 8248633, Betty Connolly (WDC)07 8248633, Vanessa Rice or Anne Ramsay (Ngaruawahia Community House) 07 8248340

This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!

Hi I have 2 x 5-6 month old bull calves that I want steered. Is there anyone in the area that might be able to do this for me? Ive been told that if my boys are "freezies" I need to get them done or their meat will become tainted. Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
