Eskdale Park
Hi Everyone, just a reminder here. There is a public feedback meeting to discuss future plans for Eskdale Park with Hastings District Council. As many of you know, this public feedback meeting has come about because HDC presented a concept proposal to create a mountain bike hub at Eskdale Park. Which as presented would dramatically change Eskdale Park. There is also large growing support to keep the park as a safe family friendly reserve. Please come to the meeting to show support for the park and to have your say. It is important for HDC to hear the community. The meeting and feedback will help HDC to form a plan for the park. The meeting has been confirmed by HDC. It will be this Thursday, Sept 24th from 6 to 8 pm. The meeting will be held at Hukarere Girls College at 17 Shaw Road, Eskdale. If you would like more information or details please message me.

We're excited to see what you come up with!
