Midday Concert Series Starts Friday 3rd

Welcome back everyone!
This year's concerts begin Friday 3 March with SUE BROWN
& THE MARSHALLS and John Curtis on bass guitar.

With her soulful voice Sue Brown has been in the music scene in Taupō for many years. Recently she performed at Taranaki Jazz Club and featured as a guest at Art Deco Events 2022.
Her first performance for the Midday Concert Series was in 2021.
This year she will be supported by The Marshalls (Peter on tenor sax & Chev Fraser on keyboard), a Taupō combo known for their standards, but with Sue's smooth vocals, any catchy tune or haunting melody is possible. John Curtis will assist the trio on bass guitar guaranteeing a great job.
$5 cash entry. Hope to see you there.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
