Michelle Vergel de Dios - Auckland Council’s Youth Video Challenge

 

The Kaipātiki Local Board would like to acknowledge Michelle Vergel de Dios for winning the Auckland Council’s Youth Video Challenge.

The competition challenged young people to make a one minute video answering the question: “What should Auckland spend money on to become the world's most liveable city?” The aim of the competition was to encourage younger Aucklanders to engage with the early work on Long-term Plan 2015-2025 which sets the budget for the next ten years.

Finalists were shortlisted by the Youth Advisory Panel and the winners were chosen based on the number of views that were generated on YouTube.

Twenty-three year old Michelle Vergel de Dios from Totara Vale on the North Shore took out first place for her video titled ‘What is a city?’ which generated over 12,000 YouTube views.

 

Resolution number KAI/2014/69

MOVED by Chairperson K McIntyre, seconded by Member R Hills:  

That the Kaipātiki Local Board Community Forum:

a)      congratulate Michelle Vergel de Dios for winning the Auckland Council’s Youth Video Challenge.

Stephen Farrell - Gold Medalist at the Triathalon World Championships

 

The Kaipātiki Local Board would like to acknowledge Stephen Farrell, who won three gold medals in the men 50-54 age group at the triathlon world championships held in Edmonton in August and September. 

Birkenhead resident, Stephen Farrell, raced three events in five days and won them all - the aquathon (750m swim / 5 k run); the sprint distance event (750m swim / 20km bike ride / 5km run); and then the standard distance triathlon (1,500m swim / 40km bike ride / 10km run). His winning margins were 4 seconds; 7 seconds and then 35 seconds.

It is thought no other competitor has ever won all three events.  Stephen then drove four days across Canada to compete in the World Half Ironman (70.3) Championships (2km swim / 90km bike ride / 21km run) and finished 7th.
