Posted 26th September 20113 to the Fiordland Advocate Newspaper Te Anau
It was interesting that Gerry Forde’s people picked the Real Journeys Event Centre Stadium For their Fundraising Battle of the Lakes event
To help the Manapouri Hall, as the Manapouri Hall would have been able to handle this event better, it would have been warmer and Acoustically Better as well as much better suited for lighting. And it has a stage.. It was great everybody pulled together on the night to make “The Battle Work” and Te Anau did pull the Hardest in the Tug of War. As for Technical Problems... I heard it described as a Marx Brothers Farce, but I have to hand it to my Wife Pauline, Who Worked the Fiordland Players stage lights that despite suffering from a fracture in her foot from a badly placed cable, the lighting did not fail, and despite severe pain she manage to make it right through to 2am! As they say, in any Battle there will be casualties.
