Marlborough Dragon Boat Club

Jim Luff from Marlborough Dragon Boat Club

Hi everyone, Marlborough Dragon Boat Club is now paddling into its 4th competition season and we are recruiting for new members.

We are a mixed open team and compete in south island and national Regattas but some of us just come along to get on the water for fun and fitness.

We currently train on Monday and Wednesday evenings at 6:00pm on the Wairau River from the Wairau Rowing Club. You don’t need to be a super athlete or even to have paddled before. Male or female, young in body or at heart, Dragon Boating is for everyone and we would love for you to come and have a go.

Send me a message on here or give me a call or txt 0276755533 if you would like to know more.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
