Laser Spectacular in Greytown - this Saturday night!
This Saturday, Greytown’s first ever laser show will transform the skies above McMaster Street, with an impressive light and music show to see out the 2022 Festival of Christmas. It’s a great addition to any Saturday night in the region and it's FREE!
There will be four laser shows over the evening, every hour on the hour from 6pm until 9pm. To be part of the action, make your way to the top of McMaster Street, in between Main and East Streets.
At the Town Hall there'll be entertainers, fire performers, and live music from Uncle Monkey's Carl Webley. The White Swan will host a wrap up party with sweet tunes from DJ Takas. Plus Martin Bosley will have his Oyster Saloon in full swing outside Pinocchio Restaurant and Bar from 3pm - 7.30pm.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
