The population of Reefton is set to double at Labour Weekend, as an armada of motorhomes arrives in town.
The New Zealand Motor Caravan Association will be holding its annual gathering at the Reefton Racecourse, and 350 vehicles have registered to take part.
NZMCA member Ken Leslie told the Inangahua Community Board last week that the number would probably grow to 450, making it the largest event so far for the association.
Community board chairman John Bougen said he wondered if businesses realised what they were in for.
"I think some businesses have no conception of the size of this -- it's potentially 800 people arriving in a town that's already full for Labour Weekend. It's tremendous for Reefton."
Leslie said the event would stretch the town's facilities but they would cope.
"We're just blown away by how Reefton has come on board with us, and all the businesses - we're feeling very welcome."
The gathering would be based at the racecourse, with a marquee, social events, bands and entertainment every night for the travellers.
"But we'll be encouraging them to come into town during the day and out to the Blacks Point Museum. A lot will buy their groceries in Reefton - it's part of the domestic tourism push."
Bougen said businesses should be planning now to hire extra staff for the holiday weekend.

Why not treat yourself to a bloke’s day out for a grooming WOF? Just be wary of the barbershop – between the bay rum oil, hot towels, banter, and leather chairs, you won’t want to leave!

Bevis, a resident at Ryman’s Anthony Wilding Village, recently received a gentleman’s makeover. The day began at the barbershop where Bevis and his barber Kohl shared plenty of laughs. Next up, a personal stylist helped Bevis select clothes he looked and felt great in. Being pampered isn’t the norm for Bevis but based on his smile, we’re confident he loved every minute.

The small facility, tucked into a section of the community centre, was closed in autumn for safety reasons when the country went into Covid alert level 2, and has not reopened.
Inangahua Community Board member Rachel Fifield, whose husband runs a private gym in Reefton, told a board meeting earlier this year that the community gym did not meet current safety standards for the industry.
Unstaffed gyms should have non-slip floors and accessible panic buttons, in case someone exercising alone had an accident, she told the Greymouth Star.
Since then the council had been told the gym was unsafe and was seeking advice on that, community services manager Rachel Townrow said.
"We had some submissions in June and July that the gym didn't comply with health and safety standards for unmanned gyms, so we're continuing the temporary closure while we check that.
"It may be that it's still needed in the long-term -- no decision's been made yet."
Although the gym had few subscription-paying members last year, several Reefton people have told the Greymouth Star they used it on a casual basis and missed the convenience of being able to work out at any time of the day or night.
The equipment including steppers, cross trainers, exercise bikes and weights, was bought partly with council funds and partly through community donations, including business sponsorships, about 10 years ago.
