Pickleball now Thursday evenings in Mt Albert
Some of you may remember me reaching out about an amazing sport, Pickleball, back in 2018-2019. Now, Pickleball is alive and well at a number of local centres. But until recently, not so much in the evenings. Now you can play with friends & whanau after work on Thursday evenings at the Mt. Albert YMCA. 6:45 -8:45 PM. Check it out on 773 New North Road some Thursday evening. Ask for Emily to show you the ropes. Only equipment needed for newbies is comfortable clothing and court shoes. And a $5 contribution to help pay stadium rental.
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
