Young Farmers' Ball
Young farmers from all points of the province forgot about cows and paddocks and sheep and work for a few hours while they made merry at the Young Farmers Clubs' annual ball at Stoke. And that's where we got these pics.
From Takaka came Ian Newport, Judith Langford, Marijke van Hier and Roy Ives.
Convenor of ball committee, David Canton (Orinoco) and Jill Rothwell (Blenheim).
Motueka was represented by Rosalie Chapman, Graeme Vautier, Leonie Ogg and Doug Evans.
Enjoying themselves: Marilyn Waddington, Caroline Hutche-son, Donald Gibbs and Colin Gibbs, all from Wakefield.
