Talented Court Theatre Company performers Scared Scriptless will provide the laughs with their hilarious brand of improvised comedy, and food trucks will line the square serving tasty treats.
“We are so excited to present this event and hope to see the community turning out for a great night,” AYC Chairperson Alyce Lysaght says. “Not only will it be a fun activity for young people and families, but money raised at Bite Nite will be donated to local youth organisation, 24/7 Youth Work.”
AYC have been busy organising the event as part of their key deliverables for the year. The event is being made possible with funding from the Ministry of Youth Development.
“As the event will be held at the start of winter, we encourage people to wrap up warm or bring a blanket. We’ll also have a photo booth full of props for people to take fun snaps in so they can take home a small piece of Bite Nite.”
Bite Nite will run from 5.30pm until 7.30pm at Baring Square East on Wednesday 7 June. Entry will be a gold coin donation. For more information, check out the Ashburton Youth Council Facebook page.

The Selwyn District Council has issued the following advice to anyone moving stock on local roads this winter:
Any stock moved on state highways will need a consent from the NZ Transport Agency. Council consent is needed for roads with a 70km speed limit and other high volume roads. Cattle must be moved in mobs smaller than 400 on roads in Selwyn. It's free to apply for consent from the council but you need to allow two working days for your application to be processed. To check the rules visit www.selwyn.govt.nz....
When moving stock high visibility garments, lights and warning signs are recommend so motorists can see stock. To improve safety use a direct route and avoid moving stock at peak driving times. A pilot vehicle is required at the front and rear of stock at all times to avoid a crash. If you are approaching animals on the road, slow down and don't toot your horn as it may cause the animals to panic.
