Your feedback is important to us. WINGS is conducting a survey in order to take a fresh look at how to progress and make things better and more enjoyable. Please fill in this little questionnaire which you will receive separately. Every feedback is valuable. 
WINGS would like to wish you all a blessed and happy Christmas and an enjoyable safe break. All hearts go home for Christmas, and we know it is hard for many to celebrate away from family, friends and loved ones, and this is one of the reasons why WINGS was founded. Our friendship network is here to make many of us feel a little bit more like home; one event at a time..
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us at WINGS.

PAST EVENTS
Wednesday Monthly Meeting - December 2022
The last meeting at WINGS was melodious. With the presence of the Whangarei Harmony Chorus, the evening was filled with wonderful voices and each corner echoed Christmas songs. The audience was asked to join in following the rhythms and the notes led by the choir. 
A lot of new faces were seen and lots of faces whom we had not seen for a while. Now that's the spirit of Christmas.
We swapped books, which is an Icelandic tradition at Christmas. 
We had a great meal prepared by our WINGS ladies. A great way to end the last meeting of the year. 
We also celebrate WINGS 16th birthday. A delicious cake was cut by our co-founders, Gina and Liane. Thank you for creating WINGS and helping so many ladies settle through these years. 
 WINGS Christmas Market & Fest
A massive thank you to our Whangarei Community for once again supporting us with our fundraiser event. It was a day filled with lots of happiness and the jingling of the bells. Beautiful entertainment by our talented artists. 

What a great event that was. Everyone enjoyed their time. Some very lucky winners got fabulous prizes, and lots of people bought great goodies by local vendors and stallholders. ticking off their Christmas present lists.
Santa and his elves kept the kids busy, for some kids, our storytelling corner was a hit and pretty much all the kids including some adults got their face painting done. 

A very special thank you to our awesome volunteers and members who made it all happen.

Another huge thank you goes to our generous sponsors who donated so much to make this event a success.

Finally, a big thank you to our Mayor Vince Cocurullo for finding time out from his busy schedule and spending quality time at the event.
