Supermarket funds RSA shows

Local supermarket New World Whangaparaoa has come to the aid of the Hibiscus Coast Community RSA, providing $10,000 to help run entertainment attractions at the club.

The sponsorship was announced at the clubrooms on September 6.

The supermarket is giving the club $10,000 in monthly increments, over the next 12 months, which will be used to fund a programme of entertainment organised by Dean Morris.

President Frank Coggan thanked New World owner Penny Ashton for her generous contribution.

He said that the club has come through a difficult financial year and the supermarket’s contribution means that the club can offer an entertainment programme on most Friday and Saturday nights.
