We really want to show those Aucklanders that we know how to have a good time in Northland, so we want everyone who has a board to come along and take part in the 4km distance race, which will be on the sheltered safe shallow waters of the Waitangi Inlet. Doesn't matter if you've never raced before, it's just about participating. Go as slow or as fast as you like. There are classes and trophies for every type of board (including home made ones!), there are divisions for every age, from U12 to 70+, there are prizes for best fancy dress, LOADS of spot prizes - just come and be part of it. (And of course, claiming bragging rights for racing in the national championships!). And you can watch the pros in action in the elite distance races, the kids competing in the Northland Secondary Schools SUP Championships (if your kids are at secondary school and they can paddleboard, then find out whether your school is entering a team - if not why not?). It'll be a great day out. Find out all about it at www.supchamps.nz...

FOR THE VICTIMS AND SURVIVORS
OF FRIDAY’S ATTACKS
AND FOR THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY
Media Release 17 March 2019
A public vigil is being held today at Laurie Hall Park, central Whangarei, starting at 6pm. The vigil, coordinated by Carol Peters with support of community groups, churches, District Council and police – and with the agreement of and endorsement by the local Muslim community – is open to all.
“This is an opportunity for all of us in the communities of Whangarei to come together in the face of this terrible that has impacted on Muslim families right through Aotearoa – and on all of us. This is a chance to show our compassion and honour our common humanity,” said Carol Peters.
Prior to the Vigil, a Peace March will start at 5pm at the Clock Tower at the Town Basin and proceed from there to Laurie Hall Park. The March is being organised by Emily Henderson. As many as can manage this walk are encouraged to join in.
The Vigil will include a mihi whakatau and karakia led by local kaumatua, prayers, songs and reflections. It will conclude before 7.30pm with a statement from the Muslim community and a prayer by the Imam, and the singing of the national anthem.
