Every year on Waitangi Day, the clubs and societies that make up Brayshaw Heritage Park in Blenheim open their doors to the public and give everyone the opportunit­y to enjoy their group’s activities. From the Rock and Mineral Club through to the Woodworker­s Guild, and even two different gauges of railway, there was something for everyone.

The annual open day was once again well supported by both participan­ts and public. The weather played ball, and around 150 cars of all ages were on display on Patchett’s Green at the rear of the Vintage Car Club headquarte­rs. From veteran cars to cars of the ’70s and ’80s, there was something on show to bring a smile to every dial.

The Vintage Farm Machinery Club also put on a very comprehens­ive display of working farm implements. A gold-coin donation was all that was required for a great day’s entertainm­ent for young and old.
