John Carter and David Lehndorf man the RSA stand at the Taupō Home & Garden Show.

It’s Poppy Day this Friday, April 11 and people will be able to make a donation and wear one on their lapel ahead of Anzac Day on April 25.

Poppies will be available from volunteers on the streets around towns in the district and from lots of shops.

Donations can also be made by contacting admin@tauporsa.co.nz.

All proceeds from Poppy Day is earmarked for the welfare of veterans, with various initiatives in place to help out.

There will be two services on Anzac Day this year – a dawn service and a Civic Service later in the morning.

There will also be the usual RSA breakfast with generous donations this year from M21 Meats, Bidfoods and Woolworths. 

For those interested in joining the RSA, they now meet at the Taupō Bowling Club for a social night every Thursday.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
