Rangiora A&P Show a "good day out"
Thousands of people turned out for this year's Northern A&P Rangiora Show last weekend.
Show secretary Lisa Dooling says final figures are yet to be determined, but this year's show takings are up on last year and feedback from visitors has been fantastic.
"Everything just ran really well. It was a good, fun day," she says.
Dooling says the past few months organising the show were "extremely busy", but she managed to fit in some time to knit and even entered an item in the show.
"I won first prize for a knitted hat. A friend of mine came up to me at the show and told me I'd won, so that was nice. I had planned on entering two things but just ran out of time."

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
