There were stalls, vintage car displays and good old-fashioned games on the Museum Reserve at last weekend's Ongaonga Bazaar - part of Central Hawke's Bay's Spring Fling events. Free access to the museum and Coles Factory was a big drawcard on the day, which included a pop-up art gallery, a British and European car display, live music and a funky train-ride for this children. All profits from the day will go towards the ongoing maintenance of the Ongaonga Museum and historic Coles Factory. The CHB Mail was there to capture the action.
