Local Rugby Player Chantelle Lambert to Travel to New Zealand

community · August 2025 · New Zealand (trip destination)

Denman Island rugby player Chantelle Lambert, age 15, has been selected to join Thunder Rugby's cultural rugby trip to New Zealand in August 2025. The trip includes playing four games and cultural experiences. A fundraiser with Courtenay Nissan offers car wash stickers for $20 to support her trip.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
