Avondale Community Board candidate Michelle Johansson came up with the very good idea of combining a fundraiser and a publicity activity into a single event – the Avondale Coast to Coast walk.
City Vision candidates, and a squad of candidates kids and Waterview supporters set out on Saturday to walk the 8km or so from Waterview in the north of the ward, down to Blockhouse Bay at the southern tip of Avondale. Participating candidates collected sponsorship money from friends and supporters for completing the walk.
Along the way candidates with silly hats and City Vision sandwich boards (who said politics has lost its dignity?) created a big walking advertisement for City Vision.
We stopped at strategic points for some good old fashioned street corner meetings, which attracted plenty of supportive waves and toots from passing traffic.
And in truly stylish fashion we finished off the walk with a cool drink at Jagz cafe in Blockhouse Bay.
