Is it time to disband Destination Queenstown? Last week, business and tourism leaders from Wanaka and Queenstown met in Cardrona to talk about how they could work together to more proactively advocate the district. It’s purportedly the first time the boards of Lake Wanaka Tourism and Destination Queenstown, Queenstown Chamber of Commerce and Ignite Wanaka Chamber of Commerce have held a meeting together. Mayor Jim Boult said; “To somebody visiting our district from another part of the world, they’d wonder what the fuss was about because both areas are really similar.” But I’d go one further – I think there’s many people living in the region who have often questioned why both Chambers and particularly both regional tourism operators have never pooled their resources before. Both towns are experiencing rapid growth, driven in part by the increasing number of visitors to the district. QLDC state there’s 37,000 ratepayers in the district and 6.5 million visitor nights per annum. There’s 6.5 million business opportunities in there, but this comes with responsibilities and infrastructure issues that are hard to manage with a small permanent resident base – the towns are bursting at the seams and it’s starting to show. Visitors flock here because of the great work done by regional tourism operators Destination Queenstown and Lake Wanaka Tourism, which market our region to the world. They’ve obviously done a good job, because at capacity, there’s one local resident per 34 visitors in Queenstown alone. However, the smartest marketing campaigns won’t work if your product doesn’t appeal. Queenstown’s infrastructure is struggling with this high capacity and visitors are starting to notice. A number of visitors I’ve talked have complained that Queenstown is “too touristy” and though it seems ironic – a tourist complaining about tourism – I think they have a good point. The ‘product’ is starting to wear out. Local businesses seem to agree. In late March, DQ members voted on whether the organisation should receive an increase in funding. This would have equated to an additional $349k in the fiscal year 2018 – 2019, but this motion didn’t receive the 75% voter threshold required.

Perhaps it’s time to look at a different way to market the region, starting by looking a little closer to home. Wanaka and Queenstown are very similar in both their assets and their issues. Maybe it’s time to disband DQ and Lake Wanaka Tourism in favour of a joint, district-wide tourism organisation. We’ve reached a critical mass and the region is very much on the tourist map. It’s time to ease off, re-group and strive for quality in what we offer to the world, instead of scrambling for quantity. Bethany G. Rogers

Dancing With My Jacket Is Fun, Said No One Ever.

I don’t know if the local publicans have realised, but we live in a ski-resort town and we’re heading into winter. You may think this is pointing out the obvious and I totally agree, but I’m just not sure that this fact is hugely apparent to the publicans in Queenstown.

It’s actually surprising given that it’s another revenue stream to fleece punters with. If you think about it… 100 coats per night at $3 per coat check = $300. If you only count Friday and Saturday nights then this equals $31,200 per year.

Are all the bar owners here such hardened Southernfolk that they don’t understand the concept of wearing a jacket to keep warm? I’m sure I’m not the only one that likes to wear jackets out during winter so why in God’s name do bars in Queenstown not have a coat checks?

In addition to the extra revenue you will also be making your bar look much more attractive by not having people on the dance floor dancing with their jackets or a pile of jackets stuffed into chairs or in the corner. It’s a win-win bar owners. Let’s start the coat check trend in Queenstown. #letsgetcoatchecksinqueenstown

Hairway To Heaven I have been in Queenstown for four years now. And there is one thing that is abundantly clear, only a small percentile of the barbers/hairdressers can actually cut hair to a decent standard. I suppose that comes with barbers coming and going, so you never get that consistent cut. Let’s say on average I get my barnet trimmed 8 times a year, which is about right.

It is too exspensive for the risk you take, I look forward to going home for a couple of months and enjoying my 5 quid haircuts from Ali the Barber, he’s a middle eastern magician, you leave the barbers feeling like David Beckham, whereas you leave the barbers here looking like Simon Cowell.

Sherlock Combs

That’s a staggering amount of money over 4 years. An investment like that, to only look good 25 percent of the time. It ain’t really on is it.

Unnecessary Moaning There is so much complaining going on recently about how a few Winterfest events will now take place at Cardrona instead of Coronet Peak. What kind of people have we become that a slight change in venue causes major headlines in our local papers. We are lucky that a small town like ours actually have events like this. Good on Real Journeys for stepping up and becoming the naming sponsor. It’s always good to see local businesses supporting local events. I guess the people who are complaining don’t understand how event sponsorship works.

It’s sad that this is what people are worried about, yet last week a new apartment development was annouced on Gorge Road. The target market is families yet the cost is near to the 1 mil mark. I don’t know many who can afford that - now that is something to complain about.

FACEBOOK/WEBSITE COMMENTS Impatient Drivers - 648 People coming down the hill past Shotover Jet from Arrowtown do no have the right of way over vehicles waiting on the Queenstown side. This courtesy system is for when two cars meet at the same or similar times. If vehicles are waiting at either side, approaching traffic from the opposite direction should give way.

Driver Too

Racist Assumptions - 647 Sadly statistics from the government confirm the situation. If a crash involves a tourist it is actually most likely to be a German, rather than a Chinese driver. However if you read into the facts Germans on average stay 3 months in NZ while Chinese stay on average 6 days. Most Germans also drive a car (either bought or hired) when on holiday while most Chinese don’t drive themselves (although the percentage is increasing rapidly). While some analysis of these stats show Germans are involved in more accidents than Chinese when you look at the number of days a person is behind the wheel of a car, then a Chinese driver is three times more likely to be involved in an accident than a German (or any other nationality).

Daniel

At least Freedom campers, because they are either lying around all day sleeping off last night’s high or trying to sneak into places to have a wash and pee or to shoplift their next meal, simply don’t have the time to cause further havoc on our roads. Which is quite surprising as many of their vehicles look very borderline of being WOF compliant.

EVERYTHING ELSE

In some very limited situations, a person who is unlawfully in New Zealand (but not subject to a deportation order) may be granted a new visa known generally as a ‘section 61 visa’. It is important to note however that no person has a right to request a visa once unlawful and Immigration NZ has no obligation to consider such a request. Furthermore, if Immigration NZ do consider your request and subsequently refuse it, they have no obligation to give you any reasons for the refusal and you must leave. Essentially, a section 61 visa is at the absolute discretion of Immigration NZ.

WHAT: Cinco De Mayo & Mike Everett LIVE. WHERE: Sombrero’s Mexican Cantina. WHEN: Saturday, 5th May. TIME: 7pm - 10pm. Cinco De Mayo (translates to ‘5th of May’) is the day that Mexico conquered the French empire in battle.

Since then, the 5th of May has been a day of celebration in Mexico and America. Headlining Cinco De Mayo is Helova coffee loving, Australian loving, American born, Mike Everett. ‘Yeah being American does influence my music. My sound could be described as Americana. People say it’s similar to Bob Dylan’. The 5th of May just happens to be Mike’s birthday as well! So pop along and shout him a drink

New Zealand Travel Specialist – Wanaka based SUPERVISOR with KEY HOLDER DUTIES Full Time

We are leaders in our field (selling NZ holidays!) and as such we are on the lookout for the very best sales people to join our awesome team in our lakefront office based right here in Wanaka.

Seize an opportunity to work with one of New Zealand’s leading Tourist Stores. You will be selling possum merino knitwear, souvenirs, jewellery, health products and Adidas and Canterbury apparel, targeting the independent tourist market.

By best we mean not only are you motivated by targets, customers and friendly competition but you are also packed full of personality, as funny / friendly as possible, super positive, slightly crazy and a hard worker!

The successful applicant will have a background in either sales or from a customer focused role with a minimum of 1 years’ experience and have enthusiasm for selling a variety of souvenir merchandise, plus delivering a high level of customer service. This position requires you to be hands-on within this role. Not only are you customer focused, you will need to assist in merchandising and help with stock control. You will be responsible in directing our sales team in not only sales, meeting sales targets, the ongoing training of new staff in stock control merchandising and store procedures. The successful applicant would have the availability to work one weekend day and three evenings, so flexibility is required within this role. Your roster will be discussed at the interview. If you wish to work in a team environment and enjoy meeting people from around the world and this position sounds like you, then please email us with your C.V. to the address as listed below; The Store Manager Sarah Tallboys DF Souvenirs 32 The Mall Queenstown Email: dfsouvenirsqn@xtra.co.nz

If that sounds a little bit like you then you're already half way there! Here's the other half (ok, it's slightly more than half): •

You can SELL and are hot off another sales role!

•

You’re a natural born leader.

• •

You're passionate about New Zealand. You have a kiwi roll-up-your-sleeves, can-do, get it done, muck in, and have fun - kind of attitude.

•

You have a high level of common sense, which isn't that common.

•

You possess super awesome communication and presentation skills.

•

You're not scared of some weekend and public holiday work.

• •

You're open-minded & flexible (not in a yoga way though). You have an ability to multitask yet still have attention to detail – not easy

• •

You are a permanent resident in NZ. You love getting a good base salary but are also really motivated by an exciting tiered monthly commission structure.

So, does this sound a bit like you? If so send your C.V. and a covering letter to dionne@nzft.co.nz telling us why you are more awesome than all those others folk that apply. Check us out here www.nzft.co.nz
