Below—Jossy Blakely brewing yet another cuppa A great setting for Tony, who travels the country with his partner in their house bus, following the markets with his home made items some created using old totara gates and posts. 2 An Open Day afternoon on Sunday 1st March @ 2pm – 4pm at the KP Fire Brigade - all the family are welcome, with fire truck rides as part of the event! The Kaka Point fire brigade are calling for new volunteers to join their small team of seven! All our volunteers are busy working people with families of their own and have been part of this amazing crew for some time now, so new volunteers are needed to sustain and support this great resource we have in our very own Community! When the siren goes in an emergency and with only 7 volunteers to call on, sometimes they go to a call out with a minimum of 2 (which is not ideal), as this is all who are available at that time. Ideally, it would be great to get a total of around 14 in the team, which would really help and support numbers and give an opportunity for more to attend emergency call outs at any given time. The KP Fire brigade are having an open day afternoon to give an opportunity for you to come along and have a look around and see what is involved so you can make an informed decision before becoming a volunteer Fire Fighter. The current crew (along with some of their partners and children) will be at the open day afternoon to answer any queries you may have, including what is involved being a Fire Fighter volunteer and the time involved - whether it be from a 'Fire Fighter' perspective or from a ‘Fire Fighters partner's ’ perspective, as there is a important contribution from both which makes this such a great team to be part of! For more information on the event or if you are interested in supporting your community in becoming a volunteer Fire Fighter, please contact: Lisa Biginato Ph 4128777 [email protected] or Glen MacPherson Ph 4128203, 0273066648 [email protected] 3 Kaka Point Bowling Waitangi Day Tournament We would really like to see as many locals and holiday makers as possible join us for a fun afternoon, where bowls experience is not important and anyone who has played may bring a non-bowler or two. It will be 3-bowl triples, starting at 1 pm. Flat soled shoes are essential, and whites are not required. Please be there by 12.30 with teams or if you don’t have a team we will organise one. The day will conclude with the presentation of a specially made trophy, which will be revealed on the day, followed by a barbeque. Bowling Club members, please bring a salad.

The weather soon cleared and we just completed the tournament before it rained again. Fourteen teams enjoyed a day of bowls, with lots of laughs, which is always a good sign. The winners on the day, after being placed 4th, 3rd, and 2nd twice in the previous four years, was a Green Island Dave Inder, skip of Tom’s Team team skipped by Max Grey, an old school friend of the late Tom’s, and which also included Pam Hannah included C Harris, L Rance, and Allan Bates, who incidentally is a (Tom’s daughter, ) Ali Storer and direct descendant of the Bates family who lived for a long time at the Ray Hopkins beach, where their father, the late Fred Bates was a fisherman. Second place went to Dave Bichan’s team, which showed a good deal of promise for the future, followed by Noel Ryan (Gore), Maree Rhodes, and Tom Dallas 5th. We were then treated to a lovely afternoon tea, made by the local ladies which finished off a good day. Tom and Joy owned a holiday house in Matai Street, 100 metres from the Bowling Club, and Tom personally named this gate "Sheps Entrance" Pictured: Ken Stephens 8 Some background to Tom Sheppard By Ken Stephens Tom Sheppard dairy-farmed on Paretai (he hated sheep), after working at the Paretai dairy factory and other dairy farms. He started playing bowls for Kaka Point while still on the farm and was elected Club President in 1999, 2000 and 2001, which was the 50th Anniversary of the club. Tom enjoyed leading, and won the first of several club titles in the pairs with long-time bowler, Ken Jones, in 1994. Tom was a dedicated and loyal Club man, and after his sudden death, the Club unanimously decided to dedicate the Boxing Day Tournament which had been running for several decades, as The Tom Sheppard Memorial Tournament, in his memory. Winning team and Sheppard family members: L to R Mark Sheppard (son), C Harris, M Grey, L Rance, Craig (son) A Bates Front: Pam Hannah (daughter) and Joy Sheppard 9 From Marilyn Dunn and the Nuggets Road. Puff the magic dragon has been freshened up with a few sparkles for the summer. Oscar has made me a driftwood tree which I have placed at my picnic area on the Nuggets road.

  • CATLINS BUSH and BEACH 24Th Feb. – 3Rd March 2018
    CAT CATLINS BUSH AND B EACH CATLINS BUSH AND BEACH Goldfields Cavalcade to Owaka th rd 24 Feb. – 3 March 2018 Gold in the Catlins? Absolutely! Untold tonnes of gold has been washed down the Clutha River (both from it’s present day location and multi- previous routes) on the Catlins north-eastern boundary. Also the Mataura river on its west boundary used to drain the Wakatipu basin and is fed into from the Nokomai. This has resulted in the beaches of the Catlins being quite literally sprinkled in gold! Many a claim has been staked and money and infrastructure invested to acquire this treasure. However by the time the gold made it all the way to the coast from the mountains of origin and tides and currents transported it up and down the coast, only the finest of specks remain. The gold is there to be sure! But the effort put in for the quantities returned is just not sustainable. Energy put into ship building and logging initially was far more profitable. As elsewhere, farming was where the real wealth was to be gained. Today tourism is a key player also in the development and sustainability of the thriving Catlins region. You have probably been here for a look-see before? Come again on the Goldfields Cavalcade and discover some truly hidden gems! Organised by the Otago Goldfields Heritage Trust PO Box 91, Cromwell, New Zealand Cavalcade Coordinator: Terry Davis. Office - 03 445 0111, Cell - 021 284 6844 e-mail [email protected] web www.cavalcade.co.nz To register: Complete the enclosed registration form, the two declarations and return with full payment to: OGHT, PO Box 91, Cromwell.
