Despite the weather a reasonable crowd turned up. The venue, from the feed back so far worked well. There was certainly a great atmosphere and as one stall holder so aptly said " a great bus from artists of the region as they networked and shared ideas and experiences." The rain poured down and the outside stalls need a medal for their endurance of the elements. Nevertheless people came. Fantastic Art crafts were the comments,
I have just had some of that delicious Salami.MMM +++
The wine I bought also promises to be great when I open it.
So thanks a lot. from Silverstream Lions and on behalf of Te Omanga Hospice.
Also to the RDA who rented their premisis for a vey modest sum, and without whom we could not have proceeded.
A big thanks also to the Army cadets who did us proud. Such amazing lads who were in the thick of the downpour directing traffic .Would love more feedback from those who attended

Movin’ March celebrates the benefits of walking, scooting and biking to school. The month long event is run by Greater Wellington in partnership with local councils and is free for primary schools in the Wellington region.

Walking, cycling and scooting to school have many benefits for tamariki. As well as being a great opportunity for regular exercise in the outdoors, they improve independence, physical and mental health, decision making, risk assessment and road safety skills.

How will you celebrate Movin’ March?
