Last few weeks to ride and win!

Our Community Shuttle Trial giveaway is underway, with our first winner claiming his $50 Fedeli voucher on Tuesday. Duncan uses the Shuttle to come into town from Hāwea when he has meetings (even though it is a bit of a walk from town to Anderson Road, where he works). It’s great to see people making the Shuttle work for them – and, of course, the feedback that a stop in that area of town would be useful is useful for us.

There are still generous gifts from Well Bean Café at the Medical Centre, Pembroke Patisserie in Albert Town, and the Hāwea Hotel to be won. Simply take the Shuttle and complete the customer feedback survey to be entered into the draw, and treat yourself at one of these great spots along the Shuttle route. Be sure to leave your email on the survey, so we can contact you if you win! There will be one draw for one voucher per week for the next three weeks.

Even if you use the Shuttle once to have a day out in Hāwea, a morning tea in Wānaka or a bike ride along the Outlet Track and bus ride home again, we encourage everyone to give it a go and complete the survey. With its limited scope, we know there might be some compromise involved - but we hope the financial and environmental benefits of public transport overshadow that. And if not, maybe the chance of winning a $50 gift voucher will!

Finally, a huge thank you to our supporting cafes for their generous donations to this giveaway. It’s wonderful to be bringing our community along for the ride.
