Issue 8: May, 2009

Hi everyone

As we look forward to the prospect of another long holiday weekend, many in our office are also anticipating the end of months of training for the SBS Christchurch marathon. No doubt many of you will also be taking part or encouraging someone from the sidelines. We have a report on this fantastic event in our latest issue.

Martin MonganWe also catch up with a young Christchurch woman who has recently taken over as vice-captain of the White Ferns. We wish her well as she heads off to the Twenty20 World Cup and we're also hoping the Crusaders can knock over the Bulls in Pretoria this weekend.

Regards

Martin Mongan
Chief Executive
