Paihia CBD Working Bee

Saturday 21 September the sun shone and we had an amazing turn out of volunteers (even including people from Kerikeri!) For our annual CBD working bee lead by Heinz Marti. Gardening was done, seats were re-stained, new white shell was laid, seats and other areas repaired and an overall tidy up was completed, leaving the place looking fantastic and ready for another busy season.

Awesome to see the young ones getting involved too! A great way to teach our children about community spirit.

Thank you so much to the following people for coming along and getting involved – Julia Crane, Jan Baker, Chester Rendell, Nigel And Kerry Cane, Rob Pickstock, Val Bignell, Marg Rasmussen, Ronnie And Ali Pike, Lindsay And Mary Johnson, Roger And Jill Toplis, Ann-Maree Kingi, Aaron, Zac And Dominic Peacock, Jack Poutsma, Samantha Hawke, Ethan Parris, Roger Dold, Tania Mcinnes, Paul Van De Water, Jane Banfield, Vicky, Sister Miller, Sister Gabut, Hiro, Erin, Manawai And Dorothy Paraku, Ingrid Thompson, Steve And Kartini Martin, Tracey Jenkins, Tiff, Thea And Freya Holland, Patty Doull, Denice Keesing, Sarah Townsend, Ryan And Jacob Dreaver, Teinia And Waiaria Smith, Bruce Gordon, Grant Harnish and of course Heinz Marti.

What a list! Also thank you to all those who supplied us with morning tea to share, always a welcome sight after some hard work, and a BIG shout out to Cellini’s for supplying all the hot drinks free of charge!
