A Peace Memoroial celebration fundraising event of 97 years from the dedication back in 1926
Hello to all residents, friends, groups and schools from Te Aroha and neighboring areas. I am just wondering how many of you would have had relatives generations back who gave their lives in the 1st. World War in particular.? (The second W.W. obviously is loser to our memories as are some of the others.) However as you may have seen on previous posts from June Wyatt from Te Aroha, a fundraising celebration is being held on the 28th.October on the Te Aroha Domain, where stall holders will be selling their wares, Military will be present, raffles held, games for children music songs and dancing and a War re-enactment will take place. Then in the evening at the RSA a fabulous evening of buffet meal and dancing. The Peace Memorial was dedicated on October 24th in 1926 to a listed historic building to remember those who died for us in the 1st World War. We meet on ANZAC Day, crowds in every town, and as the trumpet rings in our ears we say.."We will remember them "I'm inviting all who reads this from Te Aroha and all the towns who belong to the Neighbourly Site please come along and support this auspicious occasion., starting at 10am until 4pm. Please copy and paste this to your Facebook page, and tell your friends and families. But I also ask you now, to pray for Peace, for Israel and all those affected in this dreadful war. As we think back to the previous wars and the loss of life and destruction, we don't want more evil to add to the sadness of we already have and to stand once more and say 'We will remember them". Thank you for reading this.

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
