Just a note for everyone to know that I started this website to give people information about the past and be able to read about old times.  I have had a lot of feedback and hope to get as much on as possible.  
I hope everyone is well out there and enjoying the unique and wonderful memories that we have.  It would be terrible to think what life would be like without these memories...no matter whether good or bad.  
Sometimes you wonder what life is about and what is the point of actually being here.  I do here people say that you can be proud to leave a legacy and think that in some small way you have helped the world to be a better place for generations to come.
Hope you are all well out there and please contact me if you want to leave a story.
​Cheers Karen.

Tennis in Waianiwa from 1930's with help from Noeline Carter and Irene Marshall

2/10/2019

0 Comments

 
A tennis club was formed about WW1 but went into recess during WW2 and the club was not revived until about 1953.
In 1971 only four people turned up to the annual meeting and they agreed to once again put the club into recess.
Noeline Carter met with a group of concerned parents in 1977 and alongside, secretary, Irene Marshall they reformed the club which now only really caters for primary and secondary school children.
