Poll: Did you know about George Clarke's NZ links?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

The Amazing Spaces TV presenter and architect George Clarke is in New Zealand and he is making a request for Kiwis to get behind a rebuild of a Coromandel beach town’s 1970s Surf Life Saving Club.

The club’s building in Whiritoa has a special connection for the UK’s Clarke as it was built around the same month and the same year that he was born, he said in a video posted to Facebook.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
