It is with great pride that we can announce that we made it through to the Wellington Airport Regional Community awards after winning the Hutt City one earlier this year. As well as being nominated in the Sport Leisure category, we are also in the running for winning the People’s choice awards.
The Community Awards are in celebration of the volunteers of community groups and members of their wider community who contribute positively.
By voting for a peoples choice award nominee, you go into the draw to win a $250 Shopping Spree at Wellington Airport.
Making it through to the Wellington Regional Community Awards, we got an opportunity to have a short marketing video made. The video is now available for the public to view. Please check it out below.
