The Lake Hāwea Community Centre brings you their first big fundraising event for the year on Saturday, 22 February from 7.00pm: Bevan Gardiner: Denver and Beyond, featuring special guest James Davy. Bevan and James are a lively acoustic duo, playing incredible versions of the greatest country and rock’n’roll songs. Bevan is known for his musical likeness to John Denver, touring the show 'Take Me Home', around NZ and Australia many times. He has opened for Scottish singer songwriter Isla Grant and country legend Charlie Pride. James has supported country artists like Bevan, Jeff Rae, Suzanne Prentice, Garry Morris and Craig Adams.
Together these talented musicians have been entertaining audiences around Aotearoa for 16 years. Be captivated by Bevan’s outstanding vocals and James’s electrifying lead guitar work. Bevan and James can really get a dance floor pumping with their driving rhythmic guitars and foot stomp. Be treated to an intimate but rollicking night of entertainment, with extended invitations to sing along and get up and dance! Come for a big night out in Hāwea, experience the Lake Hāwea Community and its community-run Centre. The hall and function room are available for casual and regular hire, small or large events, with a commercial kitchen and two fully functioning bars. Event tickets and booking visit www.lhcc.co.nz

Wānaka A&P Show Announces ‘Show to Snow’
Wānaka A&P Show Partners with Wastebusters & Cardrona for Sustainability Initiative
The Wānaka A&P Show is making it easier than ever for show-goers and exhibitors to do their part for the environment in 2025. Teaming up with Wastebusters and Cardrona Alpine Resort, the Show is introducing Show to Snow, a new initiative designed to give organic waste a second life. Food scraps, livestock waste, and other organic materials will be collected and taken to Cardrona, where they’ll be turned into compost as part of their Plant a Seed initiative. This compost will then help regenerate native plantings across Cardrona and Treble Cone, supporting local biodiversity and restoring the natural landscape.
To encourage everyone to get involved, Wastebusters sta will be on-site to help with waste sorting, making it easier to dispose of materials responsibly. By working together, the Show is taking another step toward reducing its environmental impact while giving back to the land and community. This initiative is part of a wider commitment to sustainability, ensuring the Show continues to nd new ways to minimise waste and protect our environment. To learn more, visit wanakashow.co.nz
