An expo and family fun day at Waikouaiti on Saturday attracted more than 1000 people.
Thirty-two stalls were set up by community groups.
Entertainment included pony rides, tai chi, volleyball and petanque.
Raffles were run to aid people affected by the Christchurch earthquake and many of the stalls were planning to give part of their proceeds to aid the Christchurch earthquake victims, field worker for the Progress of Waikouaiti association Sonya Billyard said.
