Landmarks Local History Group (Supported by the Hastings District Council)
Meet the 2nd Tuesday of the Month @ Hastings Library 5.30pm - 6.30pm The landmarks Local History Group was formed at the inaugural meeting on Wednesday 23rd April 2008. They will meet/organise a speaker every 2nd Tuesday of the month at the Hastings Library at 5.30pm till 6.30pm. Currently the main contact people getting everything started are: Councillor Cynthia Bowers, Michael Fowler, Joyce Barry and Lily Baker. In the next few weeks Landmarks and Michael Fowler will look after press releases to encourage people to share their Hastings memories and local knowledge with our “community”. There will be a $2.00 coin donation on these evenings to cover the costs of a present for the speakers and possibly refreshments. Everyone is welcome.
