Rimu the Kiwi at the Wainuiomata Christmas Parade

| Our mascot for the RFPT (Rimu the Kiwi) attracts the attention of our wonderful community constable at the Wainuiomata Christmas Parade. (There were "High Fives" all around!) | Alan Thompson's stunning vintage Austin was a worthy carriage for Rimu, who appeared to be enjoying all of the attention from the children lined up along the parade route.

Happy faces on the RFPT float at the recent Wainuiomata Christmas Parade. Note - that's NOT a snowball carried by the wee lass - it's a giant kiwi egg!
