A HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL UNICEF WATER PISTOL FIGHT PARTICIPANTS AND SUPPORTERS


I would just like to say a huge thank you to everyone who came to the UNICEF Water Pistol Fight at Western Springs yesterday. Thankfully, the weather was kind to us and it looked like everybody had a fantastic day. I know I did- I got absolutely soaked (thanks to the guys running around with buckets!!)

About 1,500 people turned up so not quite enough to break the Guinness World Record. However, it was a fun day for all involved, which is the most important thing

We got some great coverage for UNICEF NZ and the Tap Project campaign. The water fight featured on ONE News, Prime News and 3 News. If you missed the news last night, make sure you check out the video segments on the respective websites. You might have been caught on camera!

Thank you to the people that gave up their time to make this event a success. SPS Medics, Foleys Water and O'Brien Line Ltd (especially to Wayne Henry, owner of O'Brien Line Ltd who provided a water truck jammed full of water for free and gave up a huge chunk of his day to make sure the water kept flowing!) as well as all the UNICEF volunteers

We took a few photos ourselves, which we have posted on the Facebook group. We also have some video footage on YouTube
