Cameo schedule and Defibrillator Demonstration rescheduled for 30th
What a gloomy, damp Thursday! Pop into our cosy rooms in Mahara Place this afternoon at around 1.00pm if you have been going stir-crazy at home, and listen to the group of musicians that has developed into good friends over the years they have been meeting - you'll never know quite what they'll be playing, but sing along anyway !
And don't forget Susie's very valuable Defibrillator Demonstration on Friday 30th at 1030am - don't miss this - we have so many of these machines in Kapiti now and need as many people as possible to know what to do in an emergency -
Have a lovely day today - think of me splashing in mud puddles shortly at Wilf and Jan's Reikorangi Farm Park feeding my lovely friends there - THANK YOU JEREMY FROM MR CHIPPER FOR ALL THE MULCH TO BATTLE THE MUD!! XXX

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!
