Did you know that three wonderful events were held in Christchurch in the last couple of weeks? A fundraiser on the radio for school’s whose parents couldn’t afford for their children to have winter shoes. They raised in excess of $40,000. Fantastic!! On the same day there was also a fundraiser for Ronald McDonald House and on Sunday the annual Weetbix Triathlon was successfully run with 3000 children competing and who knows how many supporters? Events that involved thousands of Christchurch people, did any of these events make the headlines in the local papers? Unfortunately no, the leading headlines were all about negative events or happenings. For instance the ‘boy racers’ graced the front page on Monday, why give them any press at all when there are so many more positive things happening in our city? Last week I began running seminars on ‘Investing in Property’ with my Investment Manager Stephen Pike. The feedback has been very positive and I will be running these every 2 weeks. For those of you who are interested and would like to invest one hour with Horncastle Homes to learn about investing in your future, give me a call today as I have some very exciting opportunities coming up. Have a fantastic weekend.
