New World Volunteers & Volunteer Week

June has become a real focus for Volunteers within the Bay of Plenty Region. Sport Bay of Plenty are running a series of volunteer breakfasts in Tauranga, Rotorua and Whakatane.

Missy Campbell pictured above is one of the deserving winners from Lucky Sevens Club at Harbourside.
