Over 120 students compete in inaugural Otago Southland Clash of the Colleges
The senior and junior awards at the inaugural Otago Southland Clash of the Colleges were claimed by the students of Otago Boys’ High School and Blue Mountain College.
"Exhibitors are pulling out all the stops to have plenty of things to win and do," says president Lew Duggan.
Anybody attending the event, on March 3-5, has a good chance of walking away with something special.
Northland Toyota is building a new, improved 4WD track – next to its site – to show off its new Toyota Hiluxs in 'real-world' conditions.
Sales consultant Nigel Gilmour
says people trying out a new model Toyota Hilux, FJ Land Cruiser or Toyota Fortuna on the 4WD course should expect a bumpier ride than last year.
"Drivers will experience challenging approach and departure angles right from the seat."
Toyota's new range of Hiluxs ranges from 2WD work trucks to high-spec 4WD Hiluxs.
"We've been working on the new range for five years, so it will be exciting to let people see them live. We are most excited by our new 2WD Hiluxs, which have the same ground clearance as our 4WD models."
Field day attendees will also get one chance each day to win their weight in meat via a competition organised by NZME and farm electronics manufacturer Tru-Test. Scales will be set up at the Tru-Test site to weigh visitors for the contest.
Tru-Test and the field days committee will auction off items on site, giving farmers an opportunity for great deals on fencing and other animal handling gear.
