Thanks and farewell to the Whangārei Leader
Today's edition of the Whangārei Leader is its last. We've been proud publishers of the "Council News" section for decades and we're sad to see this era come to an end.
We don't want anyone to miss out on the "need to know" so we're encouraging readers to sign up to our fortnightly email newsletter, What's New Whangārei: www.wdc.govt.nz...

Time for a clear-out?
Delve back into that garage or wardrobe! It's time to sell your gently-loved goods at The Neighbourly Winter (online!) Garage Sale
On Saturday 6th July, members will be online checking out the goods on offer so it's a great time to get rid of your winter clutter.
Maybe it's time to realise that you're never going to use that snowboard or ski jacket, and that you really do have one too many heaters. Whatever it is, take a picture and put it on Neighbourly for locals to see.
