Jump to latest

The Maungaraki Views newsletter has been going for many years, with various editors taking turns at the helm. The magazine is produced 11 months of the year (not January) and usually delivered to every household in the suburb, with additional copies left in the shops for visitors, early in each month.

The magazine is compiled by Charmaine Wessels, then printed by local resident Chris Garratt at his Wellington printing press, and delivered to Lou Dawson who organises distribution via a band of willing volunteers.

The magazine is supported by local advertisers, which is gratefully acknowledged. Information for Advertisers can be found here: Maungaraki Views Advertiser Information

New sign is appreciated!

The new sign at Maungaraki Shops is most appreciated. The council came up with a number of nice ideas when the old wooden sign blew down in a gale a year ago today.
