Aaron Smith visits Feilding

Aaron Smith received a 'Friendly Feilding' welcome when he returned home today. A large crowd turned out to a public gathering in the Feilding town square when young rugby players had the chance to get shirts, balls and posters signed by Manawatu's newest All Black.

Aaron received a welcome at the Manawatu District Council by local councillors, Feilding Junior Rugby and Mayor Margaret Kouvelis. He then made his way to the Feilding town square under the watchful eye of Turboman where his fans had a chance to get up close and personal for signatures and photos.

Accompanied by four of his Turbos team mate the folks of Feilding had a great experience mixing and mingling with their hereos.
