A reunion of Leigh fishermen their families and friends will take place at the Rodney Rams League Club, Whangateau, on October 27.

The reunion offers the chance to reminisce about the early days of the wharf and Leigh fisheries.

Attendees are encouraged to bring pictures and stories to share. It’s hoped the reunion will offer the chance to capture tales, memories and images for a possible book.

The event kicks off at 3pm. For more information see the Leigh Fisherman Reunion 2018 Facebook Group or email Robyn Kellian, robynshoods@gmail.com.
