Hawke's Bay Show

Denise from Marewa

Today, the Hawke’s Bay A&P Society are extremely pleased and excited to announce that the A&P Show hosted in Hastings will be going ahead in October 2020.

The Covid crisis nearly threatened the event proceeding, but with support from local and central government, alongside the Societies family of sponsors and volunteers, who are the backbone of the organisation, we have the confidence to proceed, albeit with changes to both the Society and the event.

The biggest change is that the Royal status of the Show will be placed on hold for a year with the RAS’s blessing, and the three-day scheduled will be reduced to two days.

We are excited to announce the Show will go on!

Thursday 22 - Friday 23 October 2020

Key dates for you to note:
Competition Entries Open - 1 August 2020
Competition Entries Close - 30 September 2020
Show Days - 22/23 October 2020

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
