News:
Now that the Election day has been announced (8 November) it is time to get to know the MPs and the party policies. We have decided to join up with the Herald Island Residents and Ratepayers Association, so the Meet the Candidates evening is at Whenuapai School Hall (next to Pinepac) on 6 October. MP John Key is confirmed for that event. More details to follow on the web site as they are available.
Reminder: On Tuesday 30th September, the Albany Community Board will meet in the Old School Building, Collins Park, at 7.30. It is not often that the wheels of democracy roll into our town, so if there is anything council-related that you would like to see in the long-term plan, come along and be heard. This is however not a place to air grievances -- you can always bring those to your Ratepayers Association by emailing info@greenhithe.org.nz
Web Site:
Don't forget to use the web site to check up on news and events, buy/sell things (there's even a house for sale), check for babysitters, see what community groups are doing, and discuss whatever you feel like discussing. I'd like to see all local clubs listed and actively using the web site, so send an email to info@greenhithe.org.nz if you think your club should join the 21st century.
