New Year's Day Litter Pick-up

We all love living and visiting our district so why not take the opportunity on New Year’s Day to get together with friends and family and continue to look after the place we love?!

Join our team on Wednesday, January 1 between 8am and 10am at the Lakefront Reserve (opposite Taupo Mini Golf). We'll make our way along the lakefront, picking up glass, cans, microplastics and anything else that shouldn't be there. And after picking up litter, there will be delicious pancakes for everybody!

You are welcome to show up at anytime through until 10am and stay for as little or as long as you want. Gloves and equipment will be provided. We recommend wearing closed toe shoes or gumboots for areas where the water level is high.

Come along, keep our lakefront looking great and treat yourself at the end with pancakes fresh of the griddle!
