I hope everyone had an enjoyable and relaxing Christmas and New Year Holiday break.
We have the first Working Bee for 2014 planned - and hope that many of you will be able to attend and help out.
WHEN: Saturday 22nd February 2014 from 9 am to 12 noon
WHERE: at the end of Acacia Road, Taumaihi Reserve.
WHAT: More pruning and tidying up along the walking path and in the Taumaihi Reserve. There are one or two quite large trees, so there will a chance of some firewood for some of the volunteers. We do have permission to go through the Lebua Lake House gates for just a few vehicles.
Mon the Lebua Lake House Manager will be there to give some of us access via the gates.
WHAT TO BRING: Wear comfortable gardening clothes, gardening gloves and sturdy shoes. Please apply sun screen and have a sunhat if it looks like it will be fine and sunny. Pruning gear such as secateurs, loppers and hedge clippers could be useful. Also a wheel barrow - or two - could be handy. Some people will be bringing car trailers.
We will provide the makings for morning tea and cold drinking water (for refilling drink bottles - or cups).
If you have any questions please either send me an email [email protected] or give me a call 362 8865
Please be mindful if you bring a vehicle to park carefully at the road end where the large gingko tree is - and not across local residents' entrance ways. Hoping to see many of you on Saturday 22nd February 2014.
Kind regards
