Found: Surfboard on motorway
A Box of Light reader found a board on the side of the motorway today. It looks like it might have slipped off a ute – board was in a boardbag so not badly damaged at all. It has a big Tino Rangatiratanga flag painted on the bottom.
If it sounds like yours email the team here at Box of Light. derek@boxoflight.com

Small cracks which are not all the way through on parts of board, nose has been touched up with resin but not all the way through also. Usual pressures from standing.

Fortune Festival, University of Otago Oval, Ōtepoti/Dunedin
Festival goers are being put on notice - Fortune Festival is coming to Dunedin in April 2022. The powerhouse lineup of New Zealand music will bring together the first large scale outdoor festival Dunedin has seen in… well, far too long.
The first announcement of acts is a who’s who of New Zealand music with headliners Salmonella Dub joined by Tiki Taane and Laughton Kora, Kiwi soul sensation TEEKS, indie-pop star Gin Wigmore, and Dunedin’s own Nadia Reid & Her Band. With many more supporting acts spread throughout the day and across multiple stages the festival promises a day/nighter of entertainment that looks to get even better with another massive act being slated for January’s second lineup announcement.
“We are absolutely stoked to be bringing an amazing lineup of iconic kiwi musicians to Dunedin,” says Jason Schroeder, festival organiser. “We know the city and the wider region have been aching for a new large-scale event and we’re ready to make it happen.”
