This   morningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   closure   was   mainly   to  allow  extra  time  to  put  up  the  new  red,   white  and  black  signage  and  to  get  new   computers  and  tills  ready  to  go.

Council rocks the boat with its choice to market wharf shops A  wave   of   disbelief   has   met   Waikato   District  Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  decision  to  appoint   a   Hamilton   real   estate   agent   to   try   WR ÂżOO WKH WRZQÂśV QHZ DQG VWLOO YHU\ empty-­looking  wharf  building. Critics   say   they   cannot   fathom   why   a   Lodge   commercial   property   specialist   has   been   given   the   job   over   Raglan   realtors   to   market  the  building  for  lease. And   their   concern   has   been   heightened   by  rumours  doing  the  rounds  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  after  a  claim   made   at   last   weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   Raglan   Community   Board  meeting  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  that  potential  lessees  have   been   told   no-­one   could   come   out   to   show   them   around   the   $1.9   million   building   and   that  they  should  look  in  the  windows. The   issue   came   up   in   the   public   forum   preceding   the   community   board   meeting,   where   Raglan   Community   House   co-­ ordinator   Chrissy   Hodkinson   asked   simply   â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why  Lodge?â&#x20AC;?   Raglan   ward   councillor   Clint   Baddeley   referred  to  the  matter  being  an  â&#x20AC;&#x153;operationalâ&#x20AC;?   issue  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  in  other  words  one  handled  by  council   staff   based   in   Ngaruawahia   â&#x20AC;&#x201C;   but   board   chairman   Rodger   Gallagherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   response   was   less   diplomatic.       â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   another   example   of   council   disengaging   from   the   community,â&#x20AC;?   he  complained. Chrissy  told  the  Chronicle  she  raised  the   issue  because  â&#x20AC;&#x153;it  struck  me  as  kind  of  oddâ&#x20AC;?   that  Lodge  were  doing  the  marketing.      She   said   the   council   needed   reminding   there   were  agents  here  who  could  handle  the  work   instead.

Chamber members go in search of Hobbiton While  Frodo   and   Bilbo   were   not   in   residence  at  the  time  of  the  their  visit,   the   Raglan   Chamber   of   Commerce   members   had   a   wonderful   visit   to   the  Hobbiton  movie  set  in  Matamata   recently.   Hobbiton  is  expected  to  rapidly  become   the  number  one  tourist  destination  in  New   =HDODQG RQFH 3HWHU -DFNVRQÂśV ÂżOP WKH Hobbit,  comes  out  in  December.   As   Tourism   New   Zealand   points   out,   when   local   operators   can   engage   with   tourists  about  places  to  visit  in  their  area,  it   gives  the  tourist  a  much  richer  and  deeper   experience  of  their  time  here.  This  trip  was   organised  as  a  familiarisation  tour  with  30   Chamber  members  taking  advantage  of  the   opportunity. The   tour   was   followed   by   a   great   barbecue   meal   at   the   Shireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   Rest,  a  converted   wool   shed.   On   site   there   is   also   the  Hobbiton  gift   shop,   complete   with   authentic   Hobbit   and   LOTR  jewellery. C h a m b e r   members   had   a   great   time   and   the  tour  is  highly   r e c o m m e n d e d   for   Hobbit   and   non   Hobbit   fans   alike.   Stephanie  Philp

The  evening  before  the  community  board   meeting,   the   same   issue   was   discussed   at   a   regular   meeting   of   the   Raglan   Chamber   of   Commerce   board.     Chairwoman   Stephanie   Philp   said   board   members   couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t   understand   why   the   council   did   not   use   Raglan  agents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It   doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t   make   any   sense,   no   logical   sense,â&#x20AC;?   she   said.   â&#x20AC;&#x153;They   should   have   gone   with  local  people.â&#x20AC;? A   chamber   representative   who   subsequently   went   along   to   the   community   board   meeting   said   she   shared   Chrissyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   concerns   but   was   encouraged   that   Clint   undertook  to  take  the  matter  up  with  council. Meanwhile   itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   understood   Lodge   have   rung   at   least   one   Raglan   real   estate   agency   to   ask   if   it   would   â&#x20AC;&#x153;conjunctâ&#x20AC;?   with   them   in   marketing   the   wharf   leases,   and   that   the   agency   is   now   obliged   to   do   so   if   there   is   interest  from  potential  commercial  tenants. However,   one   agent   approached   by   the   Chronicle  for  comment  was  pessimistic  over   the  appeal  of  the  wharf  building.    â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  major   concerns  that  ring  in  my  mind  are  the  [high]   rates  and  the  lack  of  parking,  especially  on  a   nice  day  when  a  lot  of  boats  are  out,â&#x20AC;?  he  said.   â&#x20AC;&#x153;Retail   depends   on   easy   parking   â&#x20AC;&#x201C;   I   wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  sign  a  lease  without  it.    Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  going   to  be  hard  getting  that  kind  of  money  down   there.â&#x20AC;? The   â&#x20AC;&#x153;kind   of   moneyâ&#x20AC;?   the   council   has   been   seeking   in   annual     rent   for   the   seven   premises  is  understood  to  range  from  around   $30,000   for   a   large   space   fronting   where   the  trawlers  moor  to    half  that  amount  for  a  

Vacant CBD shops soon thing of past? Marketing  the  Raglan  wharf  leases   may   prove   a   challenge   but   thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   a   mood  of  positivity  now  in  the  Raglan   CBD,   with   one   commercial   landlord   optimistic   that   town   retail   premises   will  soon  be  â&#x20AC;&#x153;pretty  well  fullâ&#x20AC;?.   He  told  the  Chronicle  he  believed   the  uptown  bakery  could  reopen  under   new   management   as   early   as   next   month  and  a  new  restaurant  in  the  old   Zaragoza  premises  by  October.    There   was  also  interest  in  the  former  Splurge   shop  on  Bow  Street,  and  the  reletting   of  the  old  Raglan  Information  Centre   premises  around  the  corner  in  Wainui   Road  was  close  to  a  â&#x20AC;&#x153;done  dealâ&#x20AC;?. Meantime   the   increasingly   busy   â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lost   Laneâ&#x20AC;?   precinct   off   the   seaward   side  of  Wainui  Road  has  gained  a  new   outdoor   eatery,   Juantanamera.     From   a   shiny   black   caravan   there,   Juan   Vicente   Gomez   is   cooking   up   and   serving   â&#x20AC;&#x201C;   on   weekends   only   at   this   stage   â&#x20AC;&#x201C;   what   he   describes   as   classic   Venezuelan  food. smaller  premises  alongside  and  on  down  to   $9000  for  areas  at  the  rear.     With   Raglan   Seafoods   and   the   council   apparently  still  negotiating  terms  as  recently   as   last   week,   it   is   believed   the   Coastguard   PD\ EH WKH RQO\ FRQÂżUPHG WHQDQW LQ WKH wharf  building.    And  that  earns  the  council   nothing   back   on   its   outlay   because   the   Coastguard  is  getting  a  grant  equivalent  to   its  rent.      Edith  Symes

Sports News: Magic night ends netball season Magic  was   the   theme   and   magic   was   the  night  when  Raglan  Area  School  Netball   Teams  celebrated  the  end  of  their  fabulous   season   with   a   dress-­up   party   last   Friday   night  at  Vinnies. Through   the   efforts   of   many   who   helped   fund   raise   for   the   night,   all   18   QHWEDOOSOD\HUVUHFHLYHGVSHFLDOFHUWLÂżFDWHV an  engraved  medal  and  treats. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  just  all  so  very  proud  of  how  the   teams  worked  hard  every  week  to  do  their   best.     There   have   been   some   huge   step-­ upâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  in  performanceâ&#x20AC;?,  said  coach  Rochelle   White. All-­in-­all  if  current  form  continues  into   next  year  there  is  a  really  good  chance  the   teams  will  do  very  well  in  their  grades.    One   thing  that  wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  be  lacking  is  enthusiasm,   no  matter  what.        Sue  Russell

Super Sports do it again Raglan  Club  Inc.  has  a  proud  record  of   achievement   at   the   annual   Whangamata   Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   mixed   sport   tournament.       By   bringing   home   the   trophy   again   this   year,   talented   all-­rounder   Maureen   Wahanga   has  won  the  pairs  trophy  three  times  in  the   last  seven  years.    This  year  Thomas  Lord,   who  works  part-­time  at  the  club  driving  the   courtesy   van,   partnered   Maureen   as   they   tackled  8  ball,  indoor  bowls  and  darts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I   wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t   expecting   to   do   so   well   at   the   indoor   bowls   part   but   I   played   better   than   expected   and   with   Maureenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s   skill   level  in  all  three  events  we  were  a  strong   combinationâ&#x20AC;?,  says  Thomas. Both   plan   to   go   back   to   Whangamata   next  year  to  defend  their  title.

Maureen Wahanga, Thomas Lord & trophy

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  really  enjoy  going  to  Whangamata   and   seeing   the   same   players   year   after   year.     The   competition   is   full-­on   so   it   was   great   to   bring   the   trophy   back   to   Raglan   againâ&#x20AC;?,   says   Maureen   who   won   the  event  in  2011  and  in  2006.      Sue  Russell

Raglan 11th Grade PDNHUXJE\Ă&#x20AC;QDOV The  Raglan  11th  grade  team  have  had   a  great  season  and  secured  themselves  a   6HPLÂżQDOVSRW7KH\IRXQGWKHPVHOYHV up   against   Melville,   who   they   had   already   played   twice   and   lost   on   both   occasions.   However,   the   team   brought   WKHLUDOOWRWKHÂżHOGRQ6DWXUGD\DW6WDQ Heather   Park   against   the   favourites.   Melville   had   slow   start   and   Raglan   capitalized   on   their   mistake   and   scored   WKHÂżUVWWU\DQGEHIRUHKDOIWLPHWRRNWKH opportunity  to  score  again,  going  to  the   break  with  a  10-­0  lead.  In  the  second  half   Melville   never   looked   like   they   were   a   threat  and  Raglan  ran  in  another  two  tries   and  a  conversion  to  win  the  game  22-­0. 7KH ÂżQDO ZLOO EH SOD\HG DW 6WDQ Heather   Park   against   Te   Rapa   on   Saturday,   so   get   along   to   the   game   and   support  them. Congratulations   to   the   Team   and   their   coaches   Renata   Pirere   and   Jason   Waitere.       Goodluck   for   the   Finals   and   well   done  guys!      Jolene  Robbs
