Lake Rotomanu Family Trout Fishing Day
Grab your fishing gear and bring your kids along to New Plymouth’s Lake Rotomanu to fish for 400 2-year-old rainbow trout that will be released into the lake. The event runs from 8am to 1pm on Saturday 31st October and Lake Rotomanu will be closed to powered watercraft during that time so that anglers can have exclusive use.
Participants can register on the day at the marquee tent set up near the boat ramp and volunteers from the Inglewood Rod, Gun & Recreation Club and staff from Taranaki Hunting & Fishing will assist with gear set-up, lures and bait etc, if required.
This is a free event funded by Taranaki Fish & Game

HOUSING CRISIS FORUM, THURSDAY 18th APRIL
That's Tomorrow!!!
Don't forget to go along to the forum and hear what the NPDC and (hopefully) our government are planning for this area.
We still have people living in emergency housing in New Plymouth!!
Every day more and more people are living in their cars and living rough. Not because they want to, but because housing/power/food/life has become so expensive they can no longer afford to rent or get their own home.
What is to be done? Come along to the NPDC Debating Chamber at 9.30am and see if we can get some answers
