Hunting competition for families to be held at Gladstone Complex on 14th October.
Gladstone, Wairarapa. The Gladstone community are bringing experienced and amateur game hunters a new competition on 14th October 2018 at the Gladstone Complex. The competition is for all ages and abilities, with a focus on attracting families to participate. Funds raised will go to the Gladstone Sports Complex and Gladstone Sports Clubs who volunteer at the event including Gladstone Netball, Gladstone Rugby, Gladstone Tennis and Gladstone Hockey.
Categories range from Heaviest Boar and Best Jaw for adults to Heaviest Rabbit or Magpie for the kids categories, and there are activities, food and beverage available to ensure the day is enjoyable for the whole community. There is a family pass which gives families a chance to hunt together and get in the draw for the spot prizes. Previous hunting events in Gladstone have seen high entries, so the organisers are expecting to see strong competition again.
Local businesses have rallied together in support of the event, with over $15,000 worth of prizes being donated. Prizes are not just for competitors, with anyone being able to enter to go in the draw for spot prizes. Masterton Stihl Shop owner Jeremy Sharp was happy to sponsor a chainsaw, a water blaster and a leaf blower as prizes. ‘It was a no-brainer to support this community event, it’s great to get families into the outdoors together and to see the proceeds going to the Complex which enables so many people enjoy their sports’.
Gladstone born local Rob Dick who has been seeking sponsorship for the event says he is ‘blown away by generosity and support from local business. This is going to help us to get lots of entries from inside and outside the region.’
Key information:
Hunting Commences Friday 12th October and closes on Sunday 14th October

Countdown is removing them from all stores and replacing them with a range of alternatives including bamboo, metal and paper straws.
The supermarket's move is expected to remove 11.6 million straws from circulation and the waste stream each year. WOW.
Do you think other NZ supermarkets should follow suit?

A warranty is extra to the protections in the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA) and can’t override or replace these. This means a retailer can't just say you're out of luck because the warranty period has ended.
The CGA says that products have to be of an acceptable quality which means they must be fit for purpose (or do what they're made to do), last for a reasonable amount of time, be safe, and be free from any minor defects. What is “acceptable quality” is based on what you could reasonably expect taking into account things like the nature of the goods, what you paid for them, and any particular statements made about the goods.
If you have a problem with something you’ve bought and the warranty period has ended, you might still be entitled to have it repaired or replaced. Check out our information on your rights as a consumer or phone CAB on 0800 367 222.
