Longest Day Golf Challenge on a day that suits you....

Natasha Judd from Cancer Society Northland

The Longest Day Golf Challenge is a community fundraising event that was piloted in September 2019 here in Northland with great success. In 2020, the event was rolled out nationally and this year we expect to see even more people take up the challenge -7 2 holes of golf in one day. This is equivalent to 4 rounds of golf and has been referred to as a ‘golf marathon’ as the distance walked is approximately a marathon in length. The event starts at dawn and finishes at dusk

Walking your dog or your dog walking you in Tikipunga

Kristi Neighbourly Lead from Tikipunga

Here are two great places to take your pooch out and about in Tikipunga - Beasley Park and the Hatea River walk.

Beasley Park, Tikipunga
Beasley Park is a suburban park close to Beazley Crescent. It is a calm place to play off-leash with a good variety of shade, sun, slopes and flat spaces. It is a quiet neighbourhood park with an interesting central waterway to explore.

Hātea River Walk
The Hatea River walkway is a dog-friendly place for on-leash exploring, with a forested walkway passing through several parks and suburbs starting from Otuihau/Whangārei Falls in Tikipunga and leading all the way to the central city at Riverside (about 6 kilometres)
There are well-established pathways (your dog must stay on leash and stick to the paths). Expect lots of passing foot-traffic - including kids.
Take a picnic, a ball, or other park activities. You will need to take rubbish home with you.

Sir John Key thinks lying and corruption is okay

Tel from Tikipunga

I thought he was better than that. This - www.stuff.co.nz... - is what he said.
He objects to Harris because she supports schemes such as health care and instead supports someone who thought drinking bleach was a cure for covid.

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler
