Future Proofing the Silverdale Pioneer Village
To ensure the future viability of key buildings in the Silverdale Pioneer Village we have begun the process of preparing two buildings, the Old Neville Homestead and the Old Parsonage for repiling.
Having been relocated to the Village over the last 55 years, these historic buildings need some attention so that future generations can enjoy them and our collection of artifacts from the early Pioneering days in the Silverdale District.
Volunteers have opened up the access to the building foundations in preparation for Engineers to begin the process of repiling.
Keep an eye out on our Website and Facebook Page as we progress the refurbishment over the next few months.
Any donations or sponsorship towards the very high cost of doing this work will be gratefully received and our bank account details are on our web site.

Do you think their pricing needs addressed to encourage more people to fly?

95.6% Yes, it's too expensive
-
3.8% No, it's reasonable

0.6% Other - I'll share below
What does ANZAC day mean to you?
ANZAC Day is a time to reflect, remember, and honour those who served.
It’s also a powerful reminder of the impact of war and the courage of those who stood for something greater than themselves.
We're interested to hear what ANZAC Day means to you and your whānau, and about any special traditions you follow each year.
Perhaps you have a loved one who served? If you feel comfortable, we’d love for you to share their story here with us.
