Read all About It! - By Chrissy Anderson

I am a huge fan of a bargain (who doesn't like a good deal!) and I especially love all the free give away Newspapers we have here in Otaki,
the Kapiti Observer, Kapiti News, Otaki Street Scene, Otaki Zilchoo and of course our very own Otaki Mail!

These newspapers, blogs and websites are always full of events from festivals, markets, school galas as well as keeping us informed of local interest stories and news about our great community.

My appreciation for them all increased lately after my husband and I went on a Fishing Road Trip around the East Cape last month, we stopped in Gisbourne and as a keen fishing family (Otaki River-mouth being our second home!) we wanted to get our hands on a local give away newspaper, looking for the tide times as well as any local events, since the weather was wonderful we didn't want to miss anything! 

Teaching our Grandson to Fish at Otaki Beach - Your never to young to learn! 

To my great surprise and disappointment, I was told they don't have a free Local Newspaper or give-away, fortunately we met some great people who were keen to share local knowledge and information.

 As a person who has been involved in plenty of local events, social groups and activities in Otaki over the years, I feel we are very lucky to have so many great Newspapers, Blogs and Websites which are free for everyone! Keep up the good work Kapiti Observer, Kapiti News, Otaki Street Scene, Otaki Zilchoo and the Otaki Mail, we all appreciate the hard work and dedication!
