Te Kowhai Community Group needs your help!
Location: Coombes Sand Quarry, Ngaruawahia Road
Date & Time: Sun, Jul 22 2018, 8:30AM - 12:30PM
About
As part of the finishing touches on the current stage of development on the Te Otamanui Walkway, the Community Group are planting more native plants and trees along the path's margins.
The Group need lots of volunteers to help plant - there are 3,500 to go in.
Last year, volunteers planted 2,500 in exactly 3 hours - so, if lots of people help, it is not a big task. And you meet like-minded, enthusiastic people - chatting and planting is mandatory.
When: Sunday 22nd July
Where: drive into the Coombes' Sand Quarry on Ngaruawahia Road (about 0.5km from the northern end of the village), and head all the way down the back to the gully. It will be signposted.
Time: 8.30 am to 12.30, irrespective of weather conditions. If there are plants left over at noon, we'll reschedule another session later in the month.
Bring: a spade, drink, chew bars etc.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
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.”
