Nelson L ve
Trampers rescued: Rescuers have been successful in recovering two trampers who got into difficulty in the Nelson Lakes National Park Saturday afternoon. Conditions in the area prevented a helicopter getting to the pair yesterday but they were picked up about 1pm Sunday during a break in the weather. The Irish woman and Latvian man, both in their mid-twenties, were checked by an advanced paramedic on the mountain and did not require further medical treatment. Search coordinator Senior Constable Dave Colville says the first rescue team to reach the pair early Sunday morning had done an outstanding job to bring them back from a severely hypothermic state prior to the helicopter’s arrival. The rescue team had tramped through the night in snow and high winds to reach the pair about 5.30am. There was a wind chill of -18deg and heavy blowing snow.
Anyone with information should call Nelson Police on 546 3840. Information can also be given by calling Crimestoppers Ph 0800 555 111.
Store ram-raided: A Nelson store had its front doors smashed by a car before thousands of dollars worth of mag wheel rims stolen. Mag and Turbo’s alarm was activated at around 6am this morning, and when security staff arrived it was discovered that the front windows had been smashed and stock stolen. It is believed a vehicle was used to smash the windows on the Vanguard St business.
All Blacks visit Stoke School: Thanks to the video skills of Room 11 at Stoke School, Nelson was visited by none other than the All Blacks on Thursday afternoon.The class entered a three minute video into a national competition to prove they were passionate about the All Blacks, and were among ten winners from around the country. Julian Savea, Owen Franks and Codie Taylor were welcomed into the school

with a song and haka, before several lucky students got to ask them some hard-hitting questions, like how be being an All Black had changed their life. Then room 11 was treated to a rippa rugby match with Franks, Savea and Taylor doing the coaching.

Big grant for velodrome: The Saxton Velodrome and Cycle Safety Arena has received a significant funding boost with The Canterbury Community Trust confirming a $100,000 grant. Work has already started on the $1.6million project, situated at Saxton Stadium, which will see the 333m velodrome facility completed within the next 16 to 20 months. The project is being funded by Nelson City and Tasman District councils, which are contributing 80 per cent of the total. The Saxton Velodrome Trust is charged with raising the remainder, (approximately $320,000).
