SUMMARY:Final day to volunteer for Summer Pool supervision
DESCRIPTION:We urgently need more volunteers to train as lifeguards for our Summer Pool – and the final day to sign up is Monday\, 19 January.\n\n\nSo far\, three amazing community members have stepped up and completed their training. We are incredibly grateful – but it’s not enough. Without additional volunteers\, Eastbourne Pool will be forced to close in mid-February.\n\n\nKeeping the pool open for the full season is critical. It allows our school and swim club to complete their swimming programmes\, ensuring our children can build confidence and safety in the water – something that matters to all of us as a coastal community.\nhttps://eastbourne.nz/2026/01/14/last-chance-to-keep-our-pool-open-for-the-full-season/

SUMMARY:Butterfly Creek - The Foreigner
DESCRIPTION:Mistaken identities\, evil adversaries\, plot twists\, and absurd excesses are in store for Butterfly Creek Theatre Troupe’s final production of the year\, The Foreigner by Larry Shue.  Rehearsals are now underway. \nWinner of two Obie Awards\, two Outer Critic Circle Awards and named the Best New American Play and Best Off-Broadway Production of 1984\, this modern farce remains a staple of regional and community theatre. \nDirector Suzy Cain\, (along with Assistant Director Nicola Tod) has assembled a fantastic cast and Cain is looking forward to working on the play again.  She did the role of Catherine about 30 years ago at the Riverside Theatre\, Vero Beach\, Florida (See photo). \n“I loved the play from the first read-through back then – not only is it a hilarious play\, full of ridiculous circumstances\, witty dialogue\, and great characters\, but it deals with some timeless themes – believing in yourself\, honestly is the best policy in the end\, and the ultimate triumph of good over evil.  Charlie Baker (the main character) is someone we can all see bits our ourselves in – shy\, insecure\, wanting to be left alone for now….who blossoms over the timeframe of the play into someone who feels confident\, smart\, and accepted. “ \nDon’t miss this off-beat comedy that is sure to tickle your funny bone! \nThe production dates are: 24\, 25\, 26\, and 31 October and 1 and 2 November at 7.30pm\, Muritai School auditorium\, Eastbourne. \nIn October\, tickets will be available from  The Foreigner – Lower Hutt – Eventfinda  or on the door on the night. \nWarning: this production contains a comic depiction of the Ku Klux Klan \n

SUMMARY:Butterfly Creek - The Foreigner
DESCRIPTION:Mistaken identities\, evil adversaries\, plot twists\, and absurd excesses are in store for Butterfly Creek Theatre Troupe’s final production of the year\, The Foreigner by Larry Shue.  Rehearsals are now underway. \nWinner of two Obie Awards\, two Outer Critic Circle Awards and named the Best New American Play and Best Off-Broadway Production of 1984\, this modern farce remains a staple of regional and community theatre. \nDirector Suzy Cain\, (along with Assistant Director Nicola Tod) has assembled a fantastic cast and Cain is looking forward to working on the play again.  She did the role of Catherine about 30 years ago at the Riverside Theatre\, Vero Beach\, Florida (See photo). \n“I loved the play from the first read-through back then – not only is it a hilarious play\, full of ridiculous circumstances\, witty dialogue\, and great characters\, but it deals with some timeless themes – believing in yourself\, honestly is the best policy in the end\, and the ultimate triumph of good over evil.  Charlie Baker (the main character) is someone we can all see bits our ourselves in – shy\, insecure\, wanting to be left alone for now….who blossoms over the timeframe of the play into someone who feels confident\, smart\, and accepted. “ \nDon’t miss this off-beat comedy that is sure to tickle your funny bone! \nThe production dates are: 24\, 25\, 26\, and 31 October and 1 and 2 November at 7.30pm\, Muritai School auditorium\, Eastbourne. \nIn October\, tickets will be available from  The Foreigner – Lower Hutt – Eventfinda  or on the door on the night. \nWarning: this production contains a comic depiction of the Ku Klux Klan \n
