Tararu Store and Bait Station

Just an update on the Tararu Store and Bait Station. Because of the birth of a beautiful baby girl, we find ourselves a bit short of staff for a few weeks. It has been decided to close the take-away only for four weeks until mum can hopefully come back.
Needless to say we are still open at 05.30 everyday and don't normally close until 7pm so there's no excuse for not popping in. Our bait and berley selection is huge and I believe is the cheapest on the Peninsular. We also have a lot of rods, reels and tackle for all occasions. We look forward to seeing you and having a yarn.

The New Zealand Chamber Soloists, Katherine Austin (piano), Lara Hall (violin), and James Tennant (Cello), with Dimitri Atanassov, will play gorgeous quartets full of creative genius and inspiration for our last concert from the brilliant compositions of Mozart and Schumann.

The Chamber Soloists are all professional musicians who have been performing together throughout New Zealand and overseas since 2006.
They are currently touring and performing this series with guest violinist Dimitri Atanassov, a familiar name to New Zealand audiences: the Bulgarian-born violinist is a former Auckland Philharmonia concertmaster and member of the Ogen Piano Trio.
Katherine, of course, we know well in Thames, as she has brought her very talented pupils from the University of Waikato Conservatorium of Music to perform for us in Thames for many years and earlier this year performed piano Duets with Maria Mo.

SUNDAY 13th NOVEMBER AT 2PM, ST GEORGES CHURCH, THAMES
Entry $20 or TMG Members $15. Cash only.
