Ngaruawahia
Hi Everyone,
I am a member of the Ngaruawahia Lions. We are involved in helping continue with assisting with the tradition of the late Norm McIntosh's annual venture of fundraising for the school holiday program held here in Ngaruawahia. One of the ways is holding a golf tournament which is, this year, held on Sunday 20th September 2020 the Hukanui Golf Club.
Here is a wonderful opportunity to support this fundraising event happening on Sunday 20th September 2020.
There are three ways you may be able to support this venture whether you have a business or not:
1: Enter a team:
Please read the attached flyer for details to enter the golf tournament.
2: Sponsor a tee/green for the day's fundraising competition of $200 or more. If you do sponsor a tee/green and would like to enter a team of 4 then your fees will be half price to play.
3: Donate a prize.
For more information about how you can sponsor a tee/green and or donate a prize or any of the above please contact one of the amazing Ngaruawahia Lions Members below:

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️

From hot air balloon rides to cotton ball scooping games, folks around Hamilton have their festive plans sorted.
On a sunny Monday when most people are already on holiday, there were a few homecomers on Hamilton streets.
