Administration Professionals Day Celebration - 21 April @ 6pm
We would love administrators (including EA's, receptionists, finance and payroll staff) across Palmerston North and Manawatu to join us at The Verdict Cafe, to acknowledge their role and the value they add to the success of the organisations the work for. Does this sound like you? Or are you a manager who would like to acknowledge your administrator/s? We'd like you to come along.
The key note speaker will be Sharon Dagg who will speak on "Overcoming Adversity" and recently become the first woman amputee to complete the Coast-to-Coast multi-sport event and will inspire us to move ahead despite the challenges that come our way.
Drinks and hors d'oeuvres, fabulous food and great spot prize draws throughout the evening!
Great news! Ticket sales extended out to Sunday 18 April (limited to available capacity)!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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?
