Partly-treated wastewater may have leaked into Waikato River near the Pukete Boat Ramp, so people are being asked not to swim in the area.

A broken plug on a pipe-fitting at Pukete treatment plant was the source of the problem, allowing wastewater into a pump building, then a stormwater system which leads to the river.

The "highly unusual" breakage happened late on Wednesday night and was noticed early on Thursday, Hamilton City Council said.

Signs have been put up at the boat ramp, warning people not to swim or let children play in water in the area.

The 4th Annual Waikato Supper Club is coming up on Tuesday, 2 April. This wonderful fundraiser supports Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) New Zealand.



With 9 Supper Clubs across the country, this event offers guests a fabulous night out while supporting a great cause. With some of the top restaurants in the region participating, this event is a fantastic corporate hosting opportunity, or a night out with family, friends and colleagues.



The evening begins with an elegant cocktail party at SKYCITY Hamilton. Guests enjoy delicious drinks and nibbles, while getting the chance to participate in exciting auctions and mystery bags. During the cocktail party, each participating restaurant is drawn out of a ballot and randomly matched with each table of guests. This is the restaurant where they will dine for the evening. Guests travel in provided transport to their chosen restaurant and are served with a delicious meal, created by some of Waikato’s top chefs.



To lock in your table go to: rmhc.org.nz...


As part of the evening we will be offering both silent and live auctions, if you would be able to donate an item, big or small, suitable to be auctioned on the evening. In return for your support, any auction items donated will have the company recognised as the donor via logos on the item listing and on the big screen throughout the night.


Any questions, please email waikato@thesupperclub.org.nz



Thanks in advance for any local support!
