UFO?

We have been invited to involve our beach cam in the www.surf.co.nz website.
This is New Zealands leading online Surf Resource.

A viewer saw this picture on our website beach cam and thought it was of interest. He headed it up UFO? Perhaps its the UFO that was recently spotted soaring above the Shannon township or more likely a toy helicopter? Any ideas?

Welcome to our Surf Viewers!


 

NEWS RELEASE
May 10 2007

DOB IN THE DUMPERS
Horizons Regional Council is asking for community help in
finding who is dumping rubbish and garden waste
on both Hokio and Waiterere Beaches.

“Everybody loses when people do this as ratepayer’s money is
used to clean up the mess,” says Horizons
media liaison advisor Emma Goodwin.

Randomly dumped garden waste also allows pest plants to
spread and household rubbish fouls beaches and is
hazardous to both wildlife and people.

Infringers can face a fine up to $1000 or prosecution.

Horizons is encouraging anyone who has information with
details of who is doing the illegal dumping to phone its
pollution hotline on 0508 476 558.

Helpful information should include date,
times and car number plate details.

Susanne was doing an Open Home on Sunday 29th April on
Waitarere Beach Rd (just east of the shop).
When she finished, she went to pack up and strangely so,
her flag was gone!

Its disappinting to know that someone took it, but if anyone knows its whereabouts, please just drop it in the dairy - no questions asked.

Who owns the magpies?

We discovered a sign of two magpies having a laugh posted on a poll
in front of our beachcam...we love the idea but we want to know the joke!
Email or call us if you know the story...


9th November 2005
The magpies have gone!


14th November 2005

We recieved an email expalining the origin of the magpies on the sign.It turned out to be a bit of a dig at a mate who
had to work and couldn't get out fishing with the boys.
Great joke guys!


June 2005 Update

Winter is defiantly here, its cold and the Tararuas are looking magnificent with its snow capped hills. The good news is that the shortest day has been and gone and the days will start to get longer.

Kopoturoa School Bus

Susanne and I helped sponsor the Kopoturoa School Bus recently. The school needed help to paint their bus and they decided to get a variety of local businesses to come to the party. The bus looks fantastic finished and the kids love it…as do the sponsors. Our website address is on the drivers’ door below Franks Waitarere Beach 4 Square sign. Great job Kopoturoa School…we are proud to be able to help.


Susannes Underpass

A local farmer has constructed an underpass for his herd of cows to cross under the main road coming into Waitarere Beach rather than the old trip they took walking across. Many of the local Community have voiced their opinion on the problems caused by the cows constantly crossing the road. The farmer has now made the pass a reality and the Chronicle featured it on the front page joking about how the farmer has named the underpass after Susanne. Susanne respected the humor behind the story and is happy the job has been done. Congratulations to the farmer for finally making a difference.


February 2005 Update

Jetstream is here!

Well, the day has come where all the telecommunication problems you have been telling me about at Waitarere for the past two years have disappeared.

There are two ways to apply for Jetstream;

1. Ring 123 and give your details over the phone.

2. Apply on line


Incidently, I hope your cell phones are working OK now that the Telecom cell site has been completed.

Waitarere now has Mobile, Telephone and Broadband services which are up with the best anywhere in New Zealand. All you have to do is use them!!


Best Wishes and happy surfing on the net,
Grahame Delaney.

PS, If you have any problems, just give me a ring.


Thanks Graeme...its awesome to finally have the services available to us at the beach. The cell phone reception is fantastic, what a change! I don't have to stand in all postions
in order to get some sort of coverage now. Fully appreciate everything you have done.


November 2004 Update

Jetstream is coming

Some good news regarding Jetstream for Waitarere.

1. It has been approved for installation.
2. The timing for this will be about February 2005.

The reason for the lead time is because Telecom, nationally, are flatout with these installs, with a very long queue. Also the Government Probe contracts (broadband to the schools etc) are currently under action. If there is any change on the above I will notify you as soon as possible.

If you have any queries etc, please feel free to contact me either by e-mail (Grahame.Delaney@Telecom.co.nz), through Telecoms main switchboard or call (04) 802 6532.
