Summer Tango in Nelson - Queens Gardens - 10 March
Come and watch some of the best Tango dancers in NZ and many dancers from overseas strutting their finest Tango moves and listen to beautiful Tango music in the Queens Gardens. Every year we celebrate the Argentine Tango in Nelson. This year Viva la Vaca will join us and be selling delicious Argentinean fare. So come and join us for a fun day for all the family. Entrance off Bridge St, we’ll see you under the big Palm Tree.
If it is a hot day please cover up with a hat, sun screen etc and most of the chairs may be taken by dancers so there will be some rugs on the ground but maybe bringing a portable chair would be a good idea. This event is weather dependant.
See you all on Sat 10 March.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
