In  March 2021, LDCT received  $500,000 funding from LINZ as part of 'Jobs for Nature' and this will be invested in the ‘Bridge to Bridge’ biodiversity restoration project. They have also partnered with Trees That Count who has Government funding to plant 100,000 trees throughout NZ to commemorate the Queens Platinum Jubilee.

We have been invited to assist with the first stage Lake Dunstan Bridge to Bridge Jobs for Nature planting on the weekend of 8th & 9th October. This stage will see 10,000 of the planned 56,000 natives planted between Deadmans Point and Lowburn Inlet to promote biodiverstiy and improve community well-being and access.

The Club Christmas Get-Together:

This year we will be having a Sunday lunch on December the 4th, starting at 12noon, in the garden at Matt Connell Wines off State Highway 6 on the corner of Thelma Place. 

We will dine al fresco style at round tables under the spreading walnut tree in the beautifully sheltered garden behind the wine tasting building there.

Party goers are asked to pay $10 per person and contribute a small starter plate or a bowl of salad or some sweet treats to the menu.

The lunch Menu:

• Starter plates laid out on the round tables 
• A main course buffet of Christmas Ham, salads, fresh bread and condiments
• Sweet treats with tea and coffee 

We will be inviting some old friends and special guests to join us, and there will be spot prizes and a mystery entertainment performance.

Can you please bring a bucket/bag with you, with all the utensils you will need to eat the meal and drink your beverage, we are trying to be eco friendly by not using disposable plates and cutlery. 

Beverages:

We will supply fruit juice and water. Wines will need to be purchased from Matt Connell Wines by the bottle. They have a Pinot Gris, a Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Please bring your own wine glass

If you prefer to drink something different from wine or juice you are welcome to bring that with you.

Parking:

There is plenty of parking behind the tasting room with flat easy access into the enclosed garden. Follow the driveway through the olive grove to find the carpark and your entry to the garden.

Payment:

Please pay $10 for each person you register into the Rotary Club account 060921 0065220 00 and use  your surname and the word Xmas as your reference.
