The Tapora community is organising a fun day at Birds Beach with sausage sizzles, slip n’ slides and lolly scrambles to raise money for Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust on January 2.
Organiser Maggie Hunt says it will be a fun day out for the family with old fashioned games including rounders, egg-and-spoon races and a tug-of-war.
Maggie is looking for donations for a prize pack which will be raffled.
Birds Beach used to host an annual summer event but it “dropped off” many years ago and was only revived last year. It raised $1700 for ARHT last year, and this time Maggie hopes to raise $2000.
In past years, the event has been aimed at Birds Beach locals, but this time Maggie hopes to draw farming families from the wider area.
Anyone interested in donating prizes or helping out should contact Maggie at maggie.hunt@xtra.co.nz.
