Forty-thousands of books for sale!
Much to Lions’ relief, 40,000 donated books will be taken out of storage on October 14 and set up in the Waikanae Memorial Hall in readiness for the 24th consecutive Lions Monster Bookfair on Saturday and Sunday, the 16th and 17th October.
Project manager Peter Cresswell said months of work is nearing its end for Lions after uncertainty as to whether Covid19 restrictions may have forced a cancellation.
“So, it is with a huge sigh of relief that we are able to proceed although under Level 2 conditions. We will be using the usual large Waikanae Memorial hall’s main room plus the smaller room normally used for priced books. There will be door controls to maintain the 100-person limits and as customer depart, more will be allowed in. Face masks must be worn and there will be fewer tables to allow for the required health distancing.
In spite of the Covid restrictions we hope once again to raise close to $40,000 for Kapiti’s needy organisations. This could bring the total raised by the Bookfair since its inception, to more than three-quarters of a million dollars!
The two days of the Combined Lions Monster Bookfair usually sees people from throughout the region congregating, even before the doors open at 8am on the Saturday. “As always the range and quantity of books for sale is ‘mind-blowing’ and there are titles to suit everyone.”
The Bookfair is all for great causes, says Cresswell. “The money raised will go the Special Olympics Kapiti, Birthright Kapiti, Kapiti Women’s Refuge, Whale Song Kapiti Coast, Wellington Children’s Hospital Playground Project, Paraparumu Foodbank and the Cancer Society.”

I am a sweet dog looking for my forever home. I am looking for a very special home that can understand my quirks and needs. A home that can help me thrive and be the best companion I can be. My ideal home would be one that has had previous large dog experience and or greyhound. I walk beautifully on a lead but in saying that I would need a home that can handle me as I can be strong when I want. I have had a fair amount of training from my previous home but there is always room for more growth. I am super smart and a lover of all yummy foods so will pick up new things very quickly. I can be shy when meeting new people so I would love a quiet patient home that can read when I am not comfortable. A home with no children. I could live with an older settled male dog but in saying this I am used to having my own space. I am not suited to a home with cats or any small animals."

"Artemis (or Arty) has done an amazing job at settling in. She's super curious and interested in everything going on - I've never had a cat who watches TV before and attacks it! She especially loves it when my boyfriend plays Call of Duty, she gets very involved. She also loves to play a lot and she's not fussy at all with toys.
This week especially she's started vocalising a with me a lot, she chirps and brrrrs away at me while purring up a storm. She's so cuddly! She loves to be carried all over the house and snuggle up on my shoulders. At night after she's finished her zoomies, she likes to sneak in under the blankets to be the little spoon. We're very happy with her, and she seems to be very happy in her new home too."
