Supporting the community

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generous support of this special community space. The A&P Association grounds are more than just grass and fences — they are a place where our community comes together to celebrate, connect, and create memories.

After the devastating weather bomb that struck during Muscle Car Madness in January, the grounds were left badly damaged. It was a tough setback for a place that so many people cherish and rely on. But thanks to the commitment of the Association, the hard work of contractors, and the incredible support of our community, the recovery is well underway.

The grounds have now been re-levelled, re-sown, and fitted with improved drainage, and with the return of some sunshine, fresh green grass is once again coming through — a powerful sign of renewal and resilience.

We are still warmly welcoming donations to help cover the cost of the work completed to date. Every contribution, big or small, helps protect this shared space and ensures it remains available for the many community events, gatherings, and celebrations held here throughout the year.

By supporting this restoration, you are helping care for a place that belongs to all of us — a space that continues to serve the wider Rangiora community and bring people together, time and time again. Thank you for being part of that journey.
