Te Kowhai News January issue ... without typos.

The Editor from Te Kowhai Newsletter

So this is what happens when you put a newsletter together while on holiday and don't triple check what you're written before you print it.

Many of you in the RD8 delivery zone will receive a printed copy of this newsletter today with errors on P7 within the article about the power outage, where an incorrect date is printed. These magazines have a sticker on the cover to draw your attention to the fact that the power outage is taking place at 1am on 22 January.

The church move begins on the 21 January and takes place during the evening and over night. The power outage is booked (at present) for 1am on 22 January.

The attached PDF newsletter is correct as of today.

In this issue (besides the bits mentioned above):
- An update on the security camera issue within the village.
- Interview with 11 year old speed demon Carson Mackie.
- Your holiday photos.
- Columns by Louise (back to school bikkies), Heather (canine canines), Noel (footpaths, village green expansion and Council news)
- Te Kowhai Market booked for early February.
- Lots of local news!

Next issue due out in March. Send in your SIGNS photos for the March issue to tekowhainews@gmail.com

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The frustration of seeing a detour sign partway through your journey on the main highways possibly the new way forward when it comes to roadworks.

One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
