People with great ideas looking for other people to join them

 

  • Need a car that goes for the Boxing Day Ramp Race Derby
    • I would like to prepare and auction a derby car for the Woodford Glen Boxing Day Ramp Race Derby.
    • Do you have a car that goes that you don't need any more? A car that has failed its warrant and is not economical to repair would be perfect. Not every car is suitable but all cars would be considered. If more than one car is donated I may be able to prepare multiple entries and auctions.
    • If you donate the car, I will strip and prepare it to the derby rules. I will also provide all the necessary safety equipment, transport the car to the trackand remove it afterwards. I would also pay the entry and licence fees.
    • For more information please contact Glen Marsden on 9600100 or 027303554

  • Live on $2 food per day for a week - Are you up for the Challenge!

Allow $2 per person in your family x 7 and that is how much you have to spend on food for the challenge week, The difference is your donation to the talents fund and is tax deductible.
    • Make and price a meal plan for the week - no cheating by using pantry items! Write up your recipes and use as an Excel project.
    • Alternatively get 4 families together and have turns at cooking for each other one night per week for a month budgetting $1.50 per person for dinner.
    • Send me your recipes and I will put together an recipe book and sell copies on Trademe.
