Dunk Mayor Ron Mark and help save our Indoor Pool

Amy from Carterton District

Want to publicly ‘dunk’ Carterton Mayor Ron Mark? What’s it worth? Bid on our TradeMe auction and the pleasure could be all yours. The public dunking will take place at the Carterton Daffodil Festival on Sunday 10 September.

See auction - www.trademe.co.nz...

Thanks so much to good-sport Ron Mark for offering himself up for this good cause. All proceeds will be going to the Carterton Indoor Pool Building Replacement Project.

Please help save our local pool, which serves so many - old and young - in Carterton and South Wairarapa. It’s the only all-year-round community pool in Wairarapa outside of Masterton.

Don’t want to bid but want to donate any amount? Any donations - large or small - are grafefully received at our givealittle page - givealittle.co.nz...

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
