Top Auckland DJs augmenting the ever popular barefoot bowling at the iconic Rocky Nook Bowling Club- this week featuring dice_nz.
$10 pp gets you a relaxed, outdoor Friday evening social where you can join your mates or make some new ones, over great music and lawn bowls in the gorgeous environs of Fowlds Park, Mt Albert.
All bowls equipment provided.
You can also enjoy a foodtruck meal from Jay's kitchen and few wines and local and Irish ales- at sports club prices- from the Auckland IRISH CLUB Bar
5 minutes’ walk from Morningside Station- leave the car behind- this is a kid-friendly event and free for under 12's and RNB members. AIS and MARL members 1/2 price!
The main requirement is that any bowlers wear flat soled shoes to protect the greens.
There is no smoking or drinking on the greens. Drinking on the surrounds of the green is fine- especially if it’s our exclusive Jack Attack Pilsner from @urbanautbrewing.
Proof of full vaccination is also required for entry.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
