Not bad going for a town that has something like 10,000 people.

I went to school with Rodney Pohio, the 7 times World Champion Jet Sprinter. Didn't know the other people though. There were only 5000 people when I was a kid there. It's really taking off now.

That Rodney Pohio - what an achievement! Thoroughly deserved acknowledgement too.
