Invitation to Action
Waikanae Recycling Centre Closure
Dear Supporters,
We invite you to join us on Thursday 29th July at the Kapiti Coast District Council meeting, starting at 9.30. in the council chambers. At this meeting the petition asking for the Waikanae recycling centre to be retained will be presented. Now close to 1000 signatures, this is a strong indicator of the depth of feeling regarding the closure within the district. If you haven’t yet signed there is still time to do so. There is a link to the petition on Neighbourly. I will also speak to the council at this meeting, highlighting three key areas of concern. We believe a strong presence in the gallery at this council meeting is needed, to send a message to council that we do not accept this closure. We hope to see you there.
In addition, we will be staging a protest against the closure outside the council building at 10.00 am on Friday 30th July. Please come along, bring a placard and a good strong voice. We hope to have the media there also.
What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Art Trail
We had a total 0f 508 visitors for the Kapiti Art Trail--such a pleasure meeting everyone and sharing our interest in the Arts and Crafts of the Kapiti Coast. Looking forward to some summer activity here at the gallery. We will let you know about upcoming events.
