Cans for Fines! Lose your fines and help the community.
Whakatāne District Libraries are accepting Cans for Fines from Monday 28 November to Sunday 4 December 2016.
Donate a 410g can of food to have $2.00 taken off your overdue fines. Cans can be delivered to any of the Whakatāne, Edgecumbe, Ōhope or Murupara libraries, and all food collected will be donated to the local food bank, with any pet food being gifted to the Whakatāne SPCA.
Please ensure all cans are not damaged or rusty.
You can donate as many cans as you like but once your applicable overdue fines have been cleared, no credit or cash will be given. The amnesty only applies to fines, not to fees or charges or lost/damaged books.
Are you keeping it old school?
We know that things come back around, look at vinyl records!
Do you still use any old-school technology (like landlines or VHS tapes) at home?
Let us know in the comments.
Have you got a great recipe for feijoas?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for feijoas, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our March 2025 issue.
Favourite holiday finds
Hi there,
We're putting together an article on Kiwis' favourite holiday finds, and would love to hear about any great new places you discovered on your holidays and are happy to share.
It could be a beach you'd never been to before, a walking track you'd never tried, a town that pleasantly surprised you or a particularly good cafe, restaurant or bar. Please feel free to comment here or to message me directly. Please put 'NFP' in your comment or message if you do not want your name or suggestion published.
Thank you very much in advance.
