Pay it Forward - Library Food Bank Drive
We are starting our journey on Neighbourly by sharing some good news with Hamiltonians! We have said goodbye to overdue fines for our Junior and Young Adult collections! To celebrate the fee removal and waiving of outstanding fees, we are running a month-long 'pay it forward' campaign in partnership with Waikato Women's Refuge - Te Whakaruruhau. A foodbank drive, running from each of our six libraries, will be open for non-perishable donations between now and 1 August. Got any questions? Let us know!
Have you seen fisheries officers out and about?
Dumping your illicit catch then fleeing fisheries officers is about the worst thing you can do this summer and one group in Raglan found this out the hard way.
They were picked up as authorities ramp up their compliance work at boatramps across the region to make sure fishers are sticking to the rules. While most do - some even have their own sustainability codes - others do not.
Have you seen fisheries officers out and about? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...
