HAMILTON'S CHRISTMAS TREE BIG SWITCH-ON - SATURDAY 30 NOVEMBER AT 8:00pm

Rudi from Hamilton Lake

HAMILTON CHRISTMAS TREE - GARDEN PLACE - LIGHTS UP ON SATURDAY 30 NOVEMBER AT 8:00pm

New Zealand's biggest and most beautiful Christmas Tree
It’s 27 metres tall to the tip of the star. That’s over 6 stories high. It takes a team of 15 people to install the frame and the lighting, fluff the branches and hang the baubles. This tree is huge!
The tree dominates Garden Place once again in 2019 and will be a great focal point for the community to gather, watch, perform and celebrate the festive season.
The tree will light up for the first time on Saturday 30th November 2019 with a special event that includes the opportunity to sing some favourite Christmas carols.
The Christmas Tree continues to light up the December nights right through to New Year.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
