Flaxmere's community heroes and heroines were last night celebrated at the launch of the 2014 Flaxmere Heroes Calendar.
The fifth annual calendar is the work of the Flaxmere U-Turn Trust and last night gave the suburb the chance to showcase its best and enjoy the good nature and achievements of local people.
The ceremony was held at Te Aranga O Heretaunga Marae in Flaxmere.
U-Turn Trust chairman Rex Graham said the evening was a great chance to celebrate the heroes in our lives.
"This is our fifth calendar and we find we are never short of heroes.
