Change of format for Op Shop Ball
BPW FRANKLIN FRIENDS AND PATRONS.
Due to lack of ticket sales for the Op Shop Ball there has had to be a change in format for BPW Franklin 40th Birthday Celebration. Patrons, instead, will enjoy a more modest Award presentation to notable local women at the buffet dinner.
With the change in format the ticket price for the dinner is $45 per person. BPW Franklin is still raising funds for the 2025 Bursary Award and there will be excellent raffle prizes on sale.
We are looking forward to seeing you on August 24th and would like patrons to confirm attendance by Saturday 17 August for catering purposes. Banking information for tickets or refunds will be sent out on receiving contact details from patrons. Please contact secretary@bpwfranklin.org.nz

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
