BULLS ‘LOOKED A PICTURE’: The 400-plus rising two-year-old Angus bulls that will go under the auctioneer’s hammer later this month were shown off to prospective buyers in the Bull Walk held on Saturday and Sunday. The Angus studs from Turiroa to Ratanui, inland from Tolaga Bay, took part in the event. “They looked a picture and we will certainly sell some stud bulls this season,” said auctioneer Neville Clark. These strapping young bulls were pictured at the Dowding’s Rangatira Stud at Muriwai. The Angus Bull Week sales run from June 22-24.

HEALTH PRECAUTIONS TWO hundred hygiene packs are being distributed by Sport Gisborne Tairawhiti this week to support sporting codes with the unexpected costs that have arisen as a result of Covid-19. The project has come about as the result of a collaboration between winter sporting codes and Sport Gisborne Tairawhiti. Packs of sanitiser, gloves, disinfectant, wipes and rubbish bags will be at the venues of participating codes for players and supporters. In the weeks ahead, 32 signs will be distributed throughout Tairawhiti sporting venues so that supporters can find out what they need to do before stepping foot on the sideline. “We’re all excited about getting back out and playing,” Sport Gisborne Tairawhiti chief executive Stefan Pishief said. “However, it’s important our codes are equipped with the necessary hygiene products and equipment to ensure the safety of the community. “We know many of our codes and clubs are facing financial challenges at the moment, so if we are able to help ease that burden we are all for it.” Gisborne Netball Centre manager Allisa Hall said they were thrilled to receive the hygiene resources as they were “an amazing contribution” to keeping their members safe.
