Super Saturday is Aotearoa's collective day to vaccinate as many people as possible in an effort to help the nation reach the 90 per cent target.
District Mayor Neil Volzke says he would like to see that 90 per cent reached as soon as possible in our home district of Stratford.
"We currently have the best vaccination rate in the region, and want to continue that trend, so please, if you haven't yet had your first dose of the vaccine, or if it is over three weeks since you had that first shot, come along on Saturday to the walk-in clinics and get vaccinated."
"To help give people that extra push, we are adding a special incentive to this Saturday, thanks to the generosity of Contact Energy we have 20, $250 Contact Energy vouchers to give away through a prize draw on Saturday; to enter, you simply have to come along and get vaccinated."
Mayor Volzke will be drawing the lucky winners at 3.30pm at New World.
A free community barbecue will be running at both supermarket sites on the day. "There's lots of reasons to come along, from a free sausage to the chance to win a great prize, but of course, the best reason to come along is simply to do your bit, get vaccinated, be protected and protect others against Covid-19."
