Volunteers needed at Wheels this weekend
Volunteers make all the difference - Wheels needs you!
'Wheels at Wairarapa' is going to be a stunner of an event, so how about volunteering?
You don’t need to be into cars, trucks or machines. You just have to be helpful, energetic and friendly and be prepared to do shifts over the three days. There is set up and pack down work to do as well.
Each volunteer receives a free T-shirt, cap and drink/snacks for their minimum of two days work.
Volunteers are key to making events run smoothly and provide a warm welcome to many people attending from outside our region.
The festival is fun for the whole family-friendly over Waitangi Weekend with entertainment, food and drinks on offer.
Cars, bikes, trucks, agricultural and contractors equipment, and even a team of Clydesdale horses with rides available! Get up close to machines restored by hand to original working condition. See rare, private collections of vehicles and machinery.
Clareville Showgrounds is the location and the weather forecast is for mostly sunny weather. So, check out the volunteers section on the website. Come along and have a memorable experience with the team!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
