CHEAPEST COFFEE IN UPPER HUTT?

Kate from Trentham

If you're in the vicinity of Upper Hutt this Saturday, 3 April, you might like to try what we think must be the cheapest morning tea anywhere! For $5 you can have a pot of tea or percolated coffee PLUS a slice of home baking or toasted cheese/relish sandwich!! Can that be beaten - we don't think so! We hope to have a Home Baking Table with items for sale, too. You'll find the MONTHLY FUNDRAISER CAFE inside the Community Centre, UHBC, corner Fergusson Drive and Milton Street, Trentham any time between 10am and midday. The talented Glenn Campbell will be singing and playing guitar while you enjoy morning tea.

Out in the car park, you'll find the CAR BOOT SALE to browse and snap up that bargain. To book a site for $10, phone 528-3454. ALL PROCEEDS from the Cafe and Car Boot Sale go to Circuit International's work in Myanmar to improve the lives of poor and disadvantaged people. Check out the website for details of their projects - it's very worthwhile work and was started by a New Zealand couple with big hearts!
