The Summer Special concert will happen at the historic St Peter's Hall in Paekakariki on Saturday 30 January 2021. Mary Gow is upbeat - "We had such a great time at St Peters last year - it is a great venue and is even closer to the centre of the village" she says. A raffle, with prizes donated by Kapiti businesses will form part of the excitement.
The concert will feature an evening of great music, featuring NZ's premier jazzman Rodger Fox and his seven-man ensemble with Erna Ferry. For 43 years Rodger Fox and his big band have set the benchmark for jazz in New Zealand. Unlike many jazz musicians who’ve gone offshore, Rodger has stayed here to offer his gift of performance, arranging, administration, conducting and teaching.
The Mulled Wine concert will see Rodger lead his select jazz ensemble, playing his dynamic solos and leading the music. Erna Ferry is a vivacious, fun and sparkling jazz/blues singer with a great stage personality. She has the ability to grab the audience and make them hers. Whether she is singing a slow sultry ballad or belting out a swinging blues, you are in no doubt that Erna is giving the song her utmost.
Like many people, Rodger Fox is a great fan of Beatles music and feels that their great tunes and inspirational words lend themselves to a jazz interpretation. Rodger says " Live the classic sounds of the Beatles in a new Jazz ’n Blues performance - tunes like, Ticket to Ride, Drive My Car, A Hard Day’s Night, Day Tripper, I Saw Her Standing There and others all with a twist of jazz and blues".
So this concert will offer a prime election of hits from the Fab Four, together with other jazz standards. A fun night out is guaranteed!

Covid-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins on Tuesday gave Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield new powers, which means he can now easily require negative tests for arrivals from all countries.
It comes as Covid-19 surges around the world, in sharp contrast to New Zealand, where there is no current community transmission. Both the US and UK are experiencing unprecedented peaks in Covid-19 and nearly 2 million people have now died from the virus globally.

Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.
He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.
Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.
He was then arrested and taken into custody.
A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.
The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.
A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

The little white kiwi with a feisty personality was more than just a bird to those who met her and the institutions who served as her guardians.
The extremely rare bird made the news across the world as the first white kiwi chick to be hatched in captivity back in 2011, and she died on December 27, 2020 after surgery to remove an infertile egg that had become stuck.
