REMINDER: Annual Matariki Multicultural Tree Planting, Sat 6 July, 10:30-1:30am

todd from EarthDiverse

Just a quick reminder:
ANNUAL MATARIKI MULTICULTURAL TREE PLANTING!
Saturday 6 July 2024, 10:30am-1:30pm.

WHERE: Waiwhakareke Natural Heritage Park, Baverstock Road gate, on the way to the Hamilton Zoo. Please note that this is an updated gate entrance (as we will no longer enter the park from the Rotokauri Rd gate, as previously advertised).

Bring a spade, water, gardening gloves and your gumboots! (we may have some extra spades available).

This event is free, family-friendly, and fun! Bring the family, plant some saplings, and have some food (light lunch and hot drinks provided). Help offset your carbon usage and plant some tree for our City Council in the awesome Waiwhakareke!

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.”

Poll: When do you shop the sales?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Bargain hunters made the most of Boxing Day sales at Centre Place and The Base in Hamilton on Friday.

However, a marketing expert believes Boxing Day sales, long a staple of Kiwi life post-Christmas, is on the outer as Black Friday becomes more popular.
