Youth & Senior.
Our club is sponsoring 2 young adults to attend the forthcoming RYLA event in Queenstown, both William and Tegan are looking forwarding to the experience, as much as we are looking forward to hearing from them later in the year.
 
Environment
John van Delft has been working tirelessly with the team in getting the Silverstream planted out. With John’s guidance, our club is going to manage the project which is exciting.  Keep an eye out for new developments within the project.
 
Daffodil Competition
Once again the competition is on!  But with a twist…… Bulbs will be available shortly for distribution to anyone who wishes to take part.
 
Book Sale; (please note)
Should you see any advertising advising that Taieri Club as hosting a book sale, please don’t panic, there is a (long) story behind the sale. The Directors have given Taieri their blessing for the sale providing it is held early in the year e.g. March/April and in different location  e.g. Otago A&P grounds.
