Pounamu Found
A Box of Light reader found a really nice pounamu/greenstone pendant at the beach a few weeks ago. It's a really cool piece so we'd love to get it back to its owner. Check out the Box of Light Facebook page for the photos and help us return it.

Lost Surfboard: Green Mike Murden Custom
Lost: Green Mike Murden Custom
My surfboard went missing late Thursday evening (December 7) after a surf at St Kilda round 10pm. I left it on the grass verge on John Wilson Drive. I came back after I got home and realised I'd left it, but it was gone. It's a green 5'6" Mike Murden custom - if you've seen it please let me know.
Thanks for your help!

Calling all Surfing Mums (and Dads)
I'd be super keen to meet other surfing mums/dads with young kids for shared surf fun/babysitting sessions. Other towns have official "surfing mums" clubs, but I don't think there's anything formal going in Dunners yet. I'd be happy to set something up or keep it informal if anyone is keen. Drop me an email if this sounds good to you:

Port Chalmers Seafood Festival, Port Chalmers
We hope to see you all on the 28th September 2019 for the Port Chalmers Seafood Festival. Save the date on your calendar and stay tuned for more information about the festival!
The Festival is completely run by local volunteers who have worked together to create a professional festival that is fun for the whole family. Its roots are in the community it serves and in 2015 the festival returned over $20,000 to West Harbour and wider Dunedin community groups. The 2017 festival was ever bigger!
