A little bit of elbow grease can go a long way, including transforming a fleet of scooters for kids.
When Napier's Sk8 Zone closed earlier this year its collection of rental scooters was donated to the Napier Menzshed.
Over the next two months club member Peter Bates spent hours repairing, sanding and painting the 39 scooters and last week donated them to five Napier schools.
Te Awa, Richmond, Henry Hill, Maraenui and Marewa schools all received a share.
Here is a picture of the principals testing out their student's new toys.

JOHN GARETH HANCOCK AND HIS RELATIVE KELLY HANCOCK STOLE THIS CARAVAN. John rented this family caravan briefly then vanished with it. Police said I could name him.
PLEASE CAN YOU HELP?????
1970s 16 foot Oxford caravan (Exterior colour is: Pale yellow which looks white from a distance with a green/teal stripe between the windows, salmon cabinetry and burgundy curtains) The van has blue patterned upholstery and light fawn coloured walls. Has been stolen by a guy apparently names John Gareth Hancock (Gareth) in Hasting HB. Sounds like a made up name but I viewed his licence so assumed it was legitimate. Caravan not insured :-(
Police cant find him even through the drivers licence number I gave them. he comes up as not fixed address and he has been in jail a few times.
He said he works for Stu Young motors but that doesn't seem to exist. Ive tried Young Motors but hes not employed there. One staff member there said they had a caravan stolen and they found it in parongahau while on a job.
He mistakenly sent me a message re-diggers so am trying to get hold of digger businesses. Hes not answering his phone and now it goes to voicemail.
Hes given heaps of false details so it looks as if it was planned from the start.
First the caravan was taken to Sylvan rd. On return to this address when the caravan vanished an abusive woman there Kelly hancock (Turns out shes related to him after denying knowing him to police) is not helping. In an argument we had she lied then admitted she knew where he is. Even though I recorded the argument the police said they cant make her tell!! Police have told me she has now threatened to quote: Smash my head in!!
This scummy guy apparently does deliveries in the mornings. Didn't get car rego as I was crazy busy at the time moving..PLEASE spread the word especially out of town re-businesses, accommodation places, storage sheds etc...Thanks so much and PLEASE SHARE this post. REWARD IF RETURNED.
CONTACT ME OR HASTINGS POLICE. THANKS

We wish everyone a safe Halloween but we need to remember that not everyone wants to be part of Halloween celebrations.

For some older people Halloween can be a frightening and scary time so here are some helpful tips so everyone can enjoy themselves and come away with fond memories:

- Make it a family affair and go trick or treating with your kids or a group from your neighbourhood.
- Call your neighbours in advance to make sure it’s okay to call in to trick-or-treat
- If you don’t want trick-or-treaters calling print or make a sign for your letterbox or window saying no thanks. (New Zealand Police have had downloadable signs)
- If you are a trick-or-treater, respect the people who have a sign asking for you to stay away
- Keep your lights on and guests outside
- Keep your eye out for your older family members, friends and neighbours this Halloween and make sure we all get to enjoy the celebration.

Remember you can help make this a great celebration for your family and community and a great opportunity to connect with your older neighbours.

If you want to go one step further Age Concern New Zealand would like to encourage all Kiwis to sign up to their Dignity Champion Campaign to show a commitment to breaking down ageism and stereotypes and encouraging dignity and respect for older people.

Become an Age Concern Dignity Champion www.ageconcern.org.nz... this Halloween and involve and celebrate the older people in your lives.
