Friends of Taupō Swamp
On Saturday, 10 October 2020, about thirty-five people, Rotarians, Friends of Taupō Swamp, Councillors Euon Murrell and Ross Leggett, Council staff, their families, and friends, met at Plimmerton Domain and carried out a variety of tasks. About 1,300 plants are now in the ground. Euon passed on the good wishes of the Mayor who was unfortunately unable to come.
Barry McEwen asked for volunteers to come along again this Saturday, 17 October when he hopes that about 1,000 more will be planted. These will be Flax, Carrex and toi toi, none of which need to be protected so the work will be quicker.
Have you seen Graham?
The 77-year-old was last seen by family at the Colonial Knob walkway near Porirua, on ‘The Doctor’ track, around 5:45pm.
