Descriptive Data

Archives Identifier00214Date Range1992-2000DescriptionThis series consists of slim booklets of up to 2-8 pages listing recreation programmes and facilities. Publication started in February/March 1992 and it was initially dropped to every household in Wellington, with the aim of informing the people of Wellington where and what is on in Council facilities and to encourage them to try new and existing programmes. The first edition is produced by the Parks and Recreation Department then from about 2000 by Recreation Wellington. Circa 2003 a Feeling Great website was also launched. In March 2011 both the publication and the website were disestablished. See the following statement from the Council intranet: 31 March 2011 Today is the last day the Feeling Great website will be live. When Feeling Great started almost eight years ago there was no central place for recreation and events information. Over time, many other event websites have appeared on the scene, people place their content on multiple sites and the number of visitors to the site has dropped off. In addition, because people tend to search online for events, readership of the publication has also dropped off. With this in mind we reviewed Feeling Great and decided to disestablish the publication and website. The December brochure was the last edition and the website will cease operating at 5.00pm today. A lot of the information is being transferred to the Council website and there are now a number of other local events and recreation websites that provide a more comprehensive list of recreational activities and have greater visitor numbers than the Feeling Great website.Quantity (Linear Metres)0.11MediumBound VolumeSystem of ArrangementchronologicalCollection TypeWellington City Council
