Just a heads up if anyone would like to purchase a Firefighters Calendar for 2017.

If you have a workplace that might be interested or just wanted the ideal Christmas stocking filler, please get in touch ASAP. Calendars are $10 each - male and female available - and stocks are limited. Private message me with your order and contact details and I will get in touch.

This seems to be the ideal platform to let the people of Napier know they are available, as there seems to have been some confusion in the past.

Calendars sales support the Child Cancer Foundation. As a result, this message is not intended to be spam, so apologies in advance if it offends anyone. Thank you.
