Past President John Pollard acknowledged the support we received this year from our sponsors.$12,000 was raised this year and we give 100% of our funds raised back to the community. This year Rotary chose the Volunteer Fire Service and made a donation to the following brigades in our district – Havelock North, Waimarama, Haumoana, Taradale and Bay View.
John was grateful for the help he received organising the event from Kevin Longman and Lyn Hann and to members of the club who stepped up to help run the event this year.
