Karma Keg - Maungaraki Richmond Scouts Jamboree Fundraiser
Maungaraki Richmond Scouts are raising funds to send 23 Scouts to the NZ Scout Jamboree in December. On Saturday May 25 the Scouts are holding a Karma Keg fundraiser. At the Karma Keg, a 50L keg of craft beer generously donated by Baylands Brewery will be tapped at 3 pm. Patrons are invited to pay what they think is "karmically fair" for a pint -- hopefully at least $10, but a generous contribution to the Scouts will come around with good karma for the donor. At 5:00 pm, all the proceeds from the beer sales will be given to the Scouts toward their Jamboree registration fees.
Please spread the word - tell all your friends, family and work mates, and come to the Queen of Jackson on Saturday 25 May between 3-5 pm to enjoy a great craft beer and donate to a worthy cause.
Cash only – you pay for your beer by putting money in the jar. We will also be running a raffle and silent auctions.
Start your evening with good karma – raise a glass to support the Scouts then enjoy the rest of the night knowing you are in harmony with the universe. Queen of Jackson is a family restaurant; children are welcome to attend.
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)
