The time has come to unearth the treasures hidden stored in a time capsule within our giant shearing statue.

Council staff have been busy preparing for the significant occasion and are excited to celebrate the opening of the first time capsule with the community.

The event will begin at 10am on Friday 24 May 2024 with a Karakia at the Shearing Statue at the southern end of Te Kūiti.

The first time capsule will be retrieved and guests will then be invited to the Les Munro Centre at 11am for the opening and presentation of the time capsule contents, and for contributors to share their memories.
