Spotlight of the Week
Hey neighbours, as the new reporter at the Franklin County News I find myself settling more into the role after three months, and the friendly people of Franklin have definitely helped with that! Taking part in Franklin's Finest late last year was a real eye-opener for me showing off awesome people behind the scenes who help make where we live a great district. No matter who I talk to, someone always has something nice to say about the people of Franklin. I feel like it's about time to shine a light on the cool things the people in our community do. So we're starting a segment on Neighbourly called Spotlight of the Week, to showcase the neat locals featured in our paper. Today's spotlight is on Anneke Liefting and Tane Welton who are now halfway through their 30,000km cycle journey from London to Auckland. They have met some friendly people in Turkey and woke up to a one in a million view in Rose Valley, Cappadocia. Anneke said they woke up at sunrise to see over 100 hot air balloons flying above them! Sounds breath-taking, I wish I had seen that too.
