Our spectacular spud dig is just around the corner so we thought we'd give you a heads up that we'll be swinging by on Sunday 22nd march to dig up those spuds and see who's the ultimate potato champion.

If anyone's got some awesome stuff they want to donate for the auction, give us a shout and we can grab it on Sunday 22nd March.

Wow what a night. The spud dig committee would like to thank everyone who came and supported our Ambrose/spud dig. Massive thanks to all our sponsors too. We don’t have exact numbers as yet but it is looking like we have raised close to $4000 for the Omakau First response. This is a phenomenal amount and couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you. Once we have final numbers we will let you all know. Thank you all again for your continuous support. If anyone has any photos they took we would love to see them 😊

Ambrose still going ahead at 12 and spud dig still on, auction at 5. Hope to see you all there
