Once again, the elves in Lake Hawea have been busy transforming the Community Centre on Myra Street into a Christmas Wonderland, bringing a little Christmas magic to the town for the third year in a row. As you walk through the magical forest the local fairies will transport you to The North Pole, where there are all sorts of enchanting delights to be found. Mrs Claus has been busy baking in her kitchen, and Santa’s elves have been busy making toys, while the teddy bears show off their sewing skills.
SOLD
And of course, everything needs to be wrapped up and put in Santa’s sack ready to be delivered on Christmas Eve. While the elves,
teddy bears and fairies do their part, Mr and Mrs Claus have also been busy, writing out lists and checking everything twice before Santa’s big day. When the work is all done, it’s time to relax and have some fun with their friends. So, gather up your friends, both big people and small, and come along to the Hawea Christmas Wonderland and experience the magic of The North Pole. Open daily from 3 - 12 December. Visit the Lake Hawea Community Centre page on Facebook (@lakehaweacommunitycentre) for more details.
STARTS
To ensure a safe environment for all visitors, and in accordance with the Government COVID-19 regulations, vaccine passports will be checked upon entry to the Community Centre.

CRIME LINE
// Acting Sergeant ADRIAN KERIN
Bonjour Wanaka, here we are for another round up of what your team in blue have been up to this week in our spot of paradise. You may well have seen a few of us out and about on the roads again this past week as we continue to push Operation Deterrence and safer roads in our area. Speed, seatbelts, cell phone usage while driving, as well as any poor driving behaviour are well in our sights. With the run up to Christmas well and truly on, we are now also going to be rigorously enforcing the drink driving message, so please expect to be stopped at any time, anywhere. This past week we have relieved a couple of people of their drivers licences for 28 days, one for high level drink driving and the second for excess speed on the main highway. Another person may be seeking a 28-day refund on vehicle registration after having it impounded for driving while disqualified. Folks we can’t stress this enough, if the court tells you cannot drive, don’t. On Tuesday along the Wanaka - Mount Aspiring Road we had a person try to compete with Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson’s space race by getting his vehicle airborne during a crash. First impressions would point to excessive speed before losing control. Fortunately, the driver survived and received some real airtime via the Rescue Helicopter ride to Dunedin. Remember your actions have consequences. Again, same old drum being beaten here, Facebook frauds are still there and catching people out. These can be small to substantial sums so please be wary. Also, there are any number of online scams going around as well as fraudulent activity all trying to get your hard-earned money for nothing. Be cyber safe and do everything you can to protect what’s yours as someone always wants to relieve you of it. Speaking of protecting what’s yours, looks like we have some lightfingered vehicle thieves in town. Two vehicles entered and items of value stolen while parked up, please lock your vehicles whenever you are not in it. Opportunist thieves stole more equipment from a building site earlier in the week. About alcohol, a cold one after work is a great way to relax, please remember your tolerance level. A male was taken home by Police after being found semi-conscious in the middle of the road by a member of the public. Being very drunk he was very belligerent despite being helped and was almost arrested. Please if you are going into town or anywhere don’t ruin a great night out by getting so drunk you put yourself in danger. Make sure you have a plan on how to get home, remember the Police are not your Uber drivers. With the warmer weather coming we are already hearing the throb of the Harley Davidsons and other motorcycles in the area. Being a motorcycle mecca, we can expect to see more riding groups on the roads. Please take the time to look twice for motorcycles as they can blend into the scenery and let’s make sure everyone enjoys a great summer. If you are interested in joining the team at Wanaka Police, we currently have a part time job as a Station Support Officer available. Please follow the link for more information about this role https://bit.ly/3o6H5WJ Until next time Wanaka, only 24 sleeps till Christmas and 23 until men start Christmas shopping.

MY COMMUNITY NEWS Classic and Sports Car run Wanaka to Glenorchy In order to help offset the carbon you will emit there will be a $20 entry fee per car which will go towards purchasing native plants for planting along the southern foreshore of Lake Hawea. These plantings will contribute to an initiative by the Guardians of Lake Hawea aimed at enhancing the indigenous biodiversity of the riparian zone.
With the official start of summer this week, what better way to celebrate it by undertaking a drive in your classic or sports car through our fantastic environment on Sunday, 5 December.
The plants will be placed along the Gladstone Gap walking and biking track between the Hawea Township and Johns Creek. Many readers would have seen the green plant protectors around recent plantings as they biked/walked along the track.
Every child deserves to smile this Christmas This festive season, Ray White Wanaka will continue its successful charity drive ‘A Little Ray of Giving’ in conjunction with Community Networks.
written by John Langley
Assemble at the Wanaka lakefront car park opposite the A & P grounds 9.00am for a 9.30am departure. We will be travelling over the Crown Range for morning tea at Arrowtown, then onto Glenorchy via Malaghans Road for lunch. The return trip will be at your leisure. Level 2 restrictions suggest that we should spread ourselves across various eating establishments at Arrowtown and Glenorchy. Contact John Langley, phone or text 021 442 271, or email jd.langley@icloud.com

You can help by simply dropping off a gift (unwrapped preferred at Community Networks request) to go under the tree at Ray White, 1 Helwick Street, Wanaka. With the help of Community Networks, gifts will be distributed the week prior to Christmas. #alittlerayofgiving
Ray White Wanaka will be collecting gifts to go under their Christmas Tree from 1 17 December 2021. This campaign has always been a real highlight of our year. It gives us a chance to bring the community together in a traditional way, in order to bring a smile and something special to those families who need it most this Christmas.

A fantastic opportunity in Luggate.
The open plan lounge/dining and kitchen areas feature large windows capturing all day sun, the outdoor areas are designed to minimise upkeep and maximise enjoyment, easy for gardeners to enjoy or children to kick a ball around. This special home presents a versatile option no matter what stage of life you’re in. As soon as you pull up outside this property with its established gardens and private grounds you’ll be wanting to call it home. This property is located at the end of a cul-de-sac and is only a few minutes walk to the famous Luggate pub. This area has so much to offer from local walkways, biking and the Clutha river is not to far away. Opportunities like this are few and far between and with rising property values this is your chance to escape your landlord and get into the property market. wanaka.ljhooker.co.nz
