Richmond Glass Mowsworth Challenge 2024

Krisca Gould from Nelson Tasman Hospice

Saturday 23 March 2024 - Join us on the Mowsworth Rampage Challenge!

Cancer is NOT fun. But this Ride-on Lawnmower challenge will be.
We're calling on people to join with Nelson Tasman Hospice and Cancer Society Nelson Tasman as we take on this challenge as a tribute to support our local people in our care.

In 1 day, you will cover 86km... on a Ride-on Lawnmower (minus the blades).

YES! That is your challenge. To conquer the Molesworth track (from Molesworth Station to Hanmer Springs.)

Yes, it will be a long hot, dusty slog. Yes, you will be riding a lawn mower with no guts. Yes, you will laugh and curse and think you could walk faster than this (but you can't).

Yes, it will be hard, but this challenge is nothing compared to what cancer patients have to go through every day.

Join Cancer Society Nelson Tasman and Nelson Tasman Hospice and ride with us in the Mowsworth Rampage to raise money to help support our locals.

The Mowsworth Rampage is the coolest, longest, hardest and most gruelling test of endurance on a ride-on lawnmower that we know of. Are you up for the challenge?

Share your New Zealand music memories...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.

Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.

In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
