Friends of Belmont Regional Park - Springtime Walk

Mary Bisset from Friends of Belmont Regional Park Inc

Boulder Hill Bushwalk & Panorama - Sat 19 Oct 10.30 am

To get there:
• take the Kelson exit from SH2 & follow Major Drive approx 2.5km
• turn left into Kaitangata Cres., & continue about 1.2km to GW carpark on left just beyond a power pylon; meet here by the noticeboards
• if the carpark is full, park on the roadside in Kaitangata Cres (not on the private road uphill from the carpark).

We did a recce last weekend & suggest you allow 2.5 hours up & back (might depend on weather & how long we linger at the summit!)
• family, friends, visitors welcome (no dogs please)
• bring wind/waterproof jacket (just in case)+ drink, snack/lunch
• medium fitness + suitable footwear needed (climb on way up).

Updates re weather to be posted here; backup Sun 20 Oct.

Speed limits around NaeNae

Susan from Naenae

Hi Neighbors, Just a heads up, I have just received a $170 fine for driving at 50km on Rata Street Naenae on a SUNDAY Morning. I wrote to NZTA pointing out and sending in a photo of sign stating that it was 30km on school days between those hours, but they said that the whole of Rata Street and some surrounding streets are 30km 24/7 and have been for over a year. Did I miss this been advised by council? Always good to be informed. Merry Christmas to all

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
