They were well or-ganised and there were a widerange of health professionalsavailable with information .Contributions for this news-letter have come from:• Barbara Cunningham•Arts Group• Mataura Village Co-op• Task Force• Mataura Community Board• Gala Day organisers• Historic Society.Until next time, remember,never be afraid to give thingsa go.
