Kāpiti Sunsets Charity Calendar

26/07/2023

As a community, over the past three years we have raised nearly $35,000 for Mary Potter Hospice with the Kāpiti Sunsets Calendar. I'm now pretty sure we have secured enough sponsorship to produce a 2024 calendar. My question is, do we run another photo competition to determine which photographs make the calendar?
