Thanks so much to Matthew and his Ray White Waiheke team for supporting the Festival in so many different ways.

Monthly Walk Series

 

Last Sunday was the last of our Monthly Walk Series, our Fullers360 Northern Coastal Walk . The rain held off and we had a great time. Thank you to a wonderful bunch of volunteers and to everyone who joined us.

The Monthly Series has been fantastic to connect with our walkers outside of the Festival. We are keen to hear your thoughts and find out if you’ve enjoyed it as much as we have. Let us know if we should bring it back next year, what we can do to make it even better, or just drop us a line to say hi. We always love hearing from you.

 

 

Welcoming Anna Reinstein to our team

We are so pleased to announce that we have appointed our Waiheke Walking Festival Manager for 2019, Anna Reinstein.

Don’t be shy, please say hi and introduce yourself, Anna is looking forward to meeting you all.

So we have become a team of three with Denise, Toni and now Anna on board – and we even have a Festival HQ space at the Ray White Waiheke office in Oneroa. Do pop by and say hi if you are passing, we are here now and will be here right through until the end of the Festival
