A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

Re: Urgency for indoor venue ‘acute’, August 11 story.

This would be a fantastic addition to the community. Amalgamate the YMCA, Badminton Centre, Childers Rd reserve, Gisborne Netball Centre, Surf City Squash and Primal Fitness. Make it a centrepiece of the city, community and local culture. Give Gisborne a much-needed boost in construction, tourism and hometown pride.
