Tree Planting at Rameka

August 2011

What a week! Thanks to the tree planting efforts of Motupipi Primary School, lead by Seamus and Bronnie and Ricky, we managed to get all 600 trees planted. There was also a fine effort put in by a cool bunch of local in the weekend, who were well fed by Fill and Albie’s amazing vegetable soup and home made bread.

Seamus is getting a head start!

There was also quite a bit of bridge building activity going on. The last, and longest boardwalk was completed, so that Great Expectations is now fully rideable down to Rameka Creek. Awesome job.

Simon the bridge builder, hard at work.

There will be an official opening of Great Expectations, plus the Pack Track which links it to the old Rameka Track on 11th December.

See you there.
