Helmut Modlik, Tumu Whakarae – Te Rūnanga o Toa Rangatira, awarded a Paul Harris Fellow award
President Denise presented Helmut Modlik, Tumu Whakarae – Te Rūnanga o Toa Rangatira, with a Paul Harris Fellow award noting that as part of Plimmerton Rotary’s 50th Year celebration recognition of people of consequence in our community was important.
The Paul Harris Fellow award, named after Rotary founder, expresses recognition for leadership and exemplary service to communities. It is my honour on behalf of RCoP to award you, Rangatira Helmut Modlik a Paul Harris Fellow and by doing so, recognise those who have gone before you and come after you. We look to partner with Ngāti Toa Rangatira over our next 50 years.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
