THEFT of EVERYTHING at Pakowhai survivor's house. Been able to add a photo now...3 April.

Raewyn from Westshore

Anyone seeing anything on the corner of Hodgson Road and Pakowhai Road in the past 10 days please contact us on 021 261 0266 - the Police have been notified today when Ross discovered everything gone today

Please keep an eye out for anything as friends have spent hours water blasting in order to get things back to some semblance of working and he had dreams of having it done up with a small inheritance his Mother left him, and the light at the end of the tunnel for him. This was/is so cruel, and so typical of what's happening to survivors.

Have you heard of pickleball? It's a fun paddle sport enjoyed by millions of people worldwide.

A cross between tennis, badminton and table tennis (or ping pong), pickleball is played on a badminton doubles-sized court using paddles and a hollow plastic ball with holes – also known as a wiffle ball. The net is slightly lower than a tennis net.

Pickleball is fun, social and friendly. The rules are simple and the game is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players.

Pickleball Hawkes Bay's home base is 707 Sylvan Rd, Hastings where we have nine outdoor courts. We also play at Napier indoor venues Rodney Green Arena and Meeanee Badminton Hall. Take a look at the 'Featured' section of our Facebook page, link below, for club days and times or feel free to contact me directly for more info. We supply paddles and balls so you only need court shoes. Mon/Wed/Fri from 3 pm, Sat from 1 pm and Sun from 9 am at Sylvan Road are good days for beginners as there is always someone who can teach you. Fair warning, though, it's highly addictive.
