Te Kamo Concept Plan
If you haven't heard of the organisation, Kamo Community Inc (KCi), is a bunch of volunteers with a big common goal - enhancing Te Kamo as a great place to be, whether you live, work, or play here. 🏡💼🎉
KCi is about teamwork and working hand in hand with the Te Kamo community , local groups, local government, and businesses to make and implement a plan for Te Kamo and celebrate Te Kamo's history.
They're cooking up a cool thing called the Te Kamo Concept Plan. 📝 It's a flexible roadmap for the next 10 years, filled with ideas and actions, full of short-term and long-term projects to make Te Kamo shine. It's all about dreams and inspiration.
There are LOTS of questions to ask, and your input is needed!
KCi wants parts of this plan to be a part of the WDC Long Term Plan. Council's already on the move, and if we're not in the mix, we may miss out. So, time's ticking!
The reason for this post is to invite you to join in! Fill out the questionnaire linked below or just share your thoughts, your cool ideas about Te Kamo, or even suggest projects you'd love to see. Do you know someone who might be super into this? Send them our way!

We're talking new year resolutions...
Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.
What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
New Year, Same Brain Teasers!
A man was found dead with a cassette recorder in one hand and a gun in the other.
When the police pressed “play,” the tape said, “I can’t go on,” and then there was a gunshot.
Yet, the police knew it was a murder.
How?

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
