Details
DescriptionPrinted in a December 2, 1964 full-page 'Leader' advertisement.
The Lions Club would be holding a Citizens Appeal on Saturday, Deecember 5. six other sponsors were listed at the bottom of the page.
When the Station Street corner was wanted as part of Woolworths' car park, the club commissioned an architect to design a 9000-square-foot two-stortey building, with the upper floor to be rented out as a source of income. The club applied for a grant; Golden Kiwi felt that two storeys was unjustified, and the architect designed a single-storey building; a £18 500 grant was offered, but the club would have to find $7500 to qualify; they had £5300 in hand in June 1965.
In 1964, a donation of £10 ($20) could get a rebate of up to £6.5.0 ($12.50); peak tax rate was 62.5%.
Date TakenNovember 1964
