Cardboard Cathedral hosts Ruckus Networks' partner awards

When Christchurch was hit by an earthquake in 2011, one of the buildings left unusable was its Cathedral. But in true Kiwi style, it was quickly replaced by a 'Transitional Cathedral' made of huge cardboard tubes and shipping containers.
Google's made a virtual tour of the building, here, if you'd like to know more.

We mention this because the Cathedral is not just a house of worship, it's also available for functions! And Ruckus Wireless recently used it for a channel conference called "Mini-Dogs". In this pic, former All Black Scott Robertson (and professional break dancer) addresses the event. 

Ruckus ANZ Country Manager Carl Jefferys addresses the crowd.

Jourdan Garde, Chris Whiting, Djeffri Setiawan, Joshua Reynolds, Roger Edgar, all from Hills, tucking into some local brews.

The trophies everyone wants! And the winners were:

• Spirit of Ruckus award went to Ruckus contractor Ryan Edwards
• Chorus was named ANZ solutions partner of the year
• Brillianz scored the top ANZ education partner award
• ANZ hospitality partner award went to Reivernet
• The best in breed ANZ distributor award honoree was Djeffri Setiawan from Hills
