Our lead story is the last promo for the “Buy Local” campaign which is currently running in Tairua. This is the last month to “shop and win”. Inside there's a Policing Report from Constable Tim, and 2 columns of Short & Sweet to keep you up-to-date with news and events. Our August “Up Close and Personal” competition has been drawn. Congratulations to Judy Honey! Look out for September’s competition in next week’s issue.
