Record total for Rodders

Hibiscus Coast Rodders Beach Festival, held on Auckland Anniversary weekend in Ōrewa, raised a record $78,000 for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter service.

Not only is this the most the event has raised in its 14 year history, but it will save many lives (equating to around 15 or 16 rescues, organisers say).

The Rodders thank all the sponsors and hot rod entrants who supported the event, as well as Hibiscus Rodders members who volunteered their time to make it all happen.
