Having a discussion about alternative meeting places, what to do if you can’t contact each other or making a list of supplies are good things to think about when making a plan for an emergency.
What will be on your plan?

Wondering if anyone has an old adult wet suit no longer needed that I could use to make a knee support.
I have a very swollen knee post surgery and cannot find a suitable knee support to fit. I have tried wet suit manufacturers in Auckland but that was too expensive.

You cannot blame yourself for that as the hectic routine does not allow you to do so. In the excitement of the new beginnings, we also tend to choose resolutions which need a lot of spare time, and as the year passes by, we are so much caught up in the everyday problems.

On Friday the start of the new dog shelter at the Whangarei Public Dog Park. It’s been a huge effort to get this we need to thank Gary from the Dog Wash on Selwyn Ave he has organised this with Tony Gill they both had spent hours of work voluntary with a few other helpers who donated goods.

It’s been a huge effort to get this we need to thank Gary from the Dog Wash on Selwyn Ave he has organised this with Tony Gill they both had spent hours of work voluntary with a few other helpers who donated goods.
Without the Dog Wash the dog park would still have a small shade sail pretending to be a shelter. Tony calls the new shelter a “carport”, yes it does look like one at the moment, until we get some more money for sides. Hopefully we will be able to have sides soon. However we need the fundraise ideas/funds, to be built over summertime and any other improvements. Any Donation could be deposited into; ASB Bank, Account name - Whangarei Public Dog Park. Account number - 123099 0025171 00
We will put up a full list of sponsors and helpers soon; Dog Wash, Hirepool, CoreSteel, Afare Catering, Hawthon Geddes, Gary Jeeves, Tony Gill, Whangarei District Council, Whangarei Public Dog Park Committee and our community.
Thanks for the HUGE team effort. This shows the Whangarei Public Dog Park is so important to the Whangarei Community, some people who have support us don’t own a dog.
THANKS.
Thanks Tony Gill
Council is planning to do the job that nature has been prevented from doing by taking the sand from the orange areas (see image) and placing it back in the yellow areas. The fix should last 10 to 15 years depending on how many major storms happen in that time.

The fix should last 10 to 15 years depending on how many major storms happen in that time.
Over time sand has settled in the orange areas because two bridges have reduced the flow of the stream that used to flush the sand back into the bay to settle along the shoreline.

Hi neighbours,
Have you had a near miss with a jet ski? Surfers in the Far North have a simple message for jet ski drivers: 'No skis if people are paddling it'. Locals have said it's simply too dangerous.
Do you think it's a fair message? What's your experience in … View moreHi neighbours,

Do you think it's a fair message? What's your experience in the water? Let us know in the replies!
