First Clutha Leader of 2018

Mary-Jo from Clutha District

This week's Clutha Leader, and the first on for the year, is a summer celebration with lotsa people still on holiday, kicking back and enjoying the Clutha-Catlin's golden weather. Enjoy folks, it's been a great one so far.
Police and emergency services did a good holiday check point initiative at Lawrence earlier this week, just to remind people to make sure they take fatigue breaks while on those long holiday drives.
The community put on sausages and coffee to make it worth their while, and the gold coin donation will go towards getting the Lawrence volunteer fire brigade away to the annual Firefighter Sky Tower Stair Challenge at Auckland, to raise funds for Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand (LBC).

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!
