Duck Creek Clean-Up

Rhondda Sweetman from Plimmerton Rotary

Deb Mair sends thanks to the twenty-five hardy volunteers who helped to clean up Duck Creek on Saturday. The community cleanup brought volunteers together to clean and improve public spaces and streams around Whitby. Maori believe the health of the people is intimately connected to the spiritual force of the streams and rivers. When local residents and students feel a connection, then we are all in a better position to assist Mother Nature. Recovered by the volunteers were four cones, one tyre, two carpets, a tent, two broken plastic chairs, three footballs, numerous tennis balls and twenty-three bags of rubbish from in and around our local waterway, stopping it from flowing downstream into the ocean via the Inlet. Our local tuna (longfin eels) were happy to see us and looked in good condition.
