There will also be something for the kids with stalls selling children's amusements and novelties, face painting, children's books, clothes, and crocheted animals/dolls/fruit/veg. For those small people who love all things on wheels, we are hoping to have a fire engine, although this is still to be confirmed. And don't forget there is a lovely little playground in Mahara Place.
Dean Ward will be entertaining the crowds as he has done many times before, and there will be a guest appearance by Kapiti Kidz Vocals at 11.30.
Most of the local businesses will be open which includes cafes, take aways, and the local butcher who will be cooking up a storm with his ever popular spit roast.
It'll be a blast so come along and check us out!!

In the lead up to the 2020 election, Stuff is keeping voters up to date with what’s happening in their electorate, through Neighbourly. Here’s what you need to know about the candidates in the running to be Ōtaki’s MP.
At the October 17 election, New Zealanders will have the opportunity to choose their regional spokesperson.
Through the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system, those enrolled can vote for the party they want as well as a local representative.
Why does my MP matter?
The person elected will be the voice for your region in Parliament. If you're having trouble getting entitlements or dealing with Government departments, they can help. If your community needs funding for certain projects or activities, or there isn't enough healthcare in the area, the elected MP can step in and help.
To be elected, the candidate needs to secure the most votes.
