Poll: Would you like to swim in Lake Rotoroa?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Making Hamilton’s Lake Rotoroa swimmable again seems impossible to some, but a group of passionate locals say it can be done.

Whakamana ki Rotoroa, Go Eco, Hamilton City Council, Waikato Regional Council and Mana Whenua Ngāti Wairere are joining forces to improve the water quality of the lake, but it’s the dream of making it swimmable again that is the driving force.

Would you like to swim in Lake Rotoroa? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
