Marlborough Taylor 10

Cristina from Fairhall - Renwick - Woodbourne

This is a new running/walking event being held for the first time on Saturday 11 November 2017

The course is completely off road, utilising the beautiful Taylor River reserve which runs through the heart of Blenheim.

Because it follows the banks of the Taylor River, the course is more or less flat, making it suitable for any runner or walker.

Whilst we expect some real speedsters to be out to set a course record in the first event, this event is about getting fit, taking part, enjoying the company of others and making the most of what Marlborough has to offer.

You can enter as a walker or a runner. Each category will be eligible for placing awards and everybody will be eligible for spot prizes, including a $1000 travel voucher sponsored by Versatile Homes & Buildings Blenheim.

We are partnering with the Mental Health Foundation of NZ as official charity of the Taylor10. To help out, you can make a small donation when you enter.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

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?

SharpAs Tool Tips

Pictured is a set of dehorners brought in for sharpening. Like all cutting tools, a sharp edge is essential for them to work efficiently and cleanly.

Good to see that pain relief is now part of the process as well.

If you have tools, knives, kitchen utensils, or other items that need sharpening or repair, come and see me:
🔹 Redwood Market – Saturdays
🔹 Marlborough Farmers’ Market – Sundays
Or contact me directly on 027 444 5535.

Cheers,
Ron
