Te Kowhai News January out now

The Editor from Te Kowhai Newsletter

Hi all

A little delayed, but better late than never. And a non-COVID related reason for the delay, just for something different. I guess that's what happens when you run something off the smell of an oily rag and a very lean team of volunteers: when one person gets ill, production grinds to a halt.

Pleased to say that we are all back up and running and using a new printer! Eeek! A leap of faith but it's one I hope paid off.

If you also receive a printed version of the publication, give it some scrutiny and let me know your feedback: good, bad but preferably constructive.

Happy new year to you all. May this year be one of positive growth and momentum.

Regards

Amanda and the team at Te Kowhai News

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

If the races gallop off to Tamahere, “exciting things” could happen with the sizeable city site they leave behind, property experts say.

On Tuesday, the Waikato Times revealed Waikato Thoroughbred Racing’s (WTR) plans to buy 150ha of farmland south of Hamilton to house the region’s three racing clubs at a new purpose-built racecourse and event centre.

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!
