If spare time is a rarity - not to worry! This year’s Givealittle page is now live and we’re aiming to fundraise $25,000 for the Tasman Environment Trust. All money raised will go towards the purchase of bait and bait stations to continue and expand wasp control operations.

The slips happened during last week’s orange heavy rain event that caused mandatory evacuations on the West Coast, 22 homes to be flooded and road closures.
Buller mayor Jamie Cleine said no water was getting to the town’s reservoir after multiple slips came down in the Sergeant’s Hill area just north of Westport.
“Either the intake pipes are damaged or they are that muddy it is not getting through."
Council staff and contractors were working on the slips and investigating the cause.
The reservoir currently was about 80 per cent full but that would only last days, he said.
As a result, the Emergency Operations Centre was still operational and the state of emergency, which was due to expire on Thursday, was likely to be extended.
A contingency plant could include redirecting some creeks into the reservoir, but it was likely not enough, he said.
“We are bringing in expertise to help us come up with a fix and we are all busy scurrying around to figure out what we can stack up,” he said.
Waimangaroa, just north of Westport, had been without water since Thursday last week after slips damaged the pipes along Conns Creek Rd, but the supply was restored on Monday afternoon.

Residents of a West Coast community are relieved an application for a sand mine has been declined.
They were concerned the proposed mine at Barrytown would have destroyed a wildlife hotspot and significantly increased heavy traffic on a spectacular scenic drive.
The West Coast Regional Council and the Grey District Council decided last week to decline the proposal to mine 5000 tonnes of heavy mineral concentrate from 115 hectares of private farmland every week. The land is on the Coast Road tourist drive (State Highway 6), between Greymouth and Punakaiki.
The applicant has 15 days to lodge an appeal to the Environment Court. Read more here.
