The finale at Pōrangahau Beach was spectacular and fun, with a gourmet barbecue and light refreshments served against the backdrop of a warm sunset, concluding an unforgettable day of exploration and philanthropy.
None of this would have been possible without the generous support of sponsors Ruahine Motors Ford, Waipukurau New World, 2Stor, Silver Fern Farms, Aitkin’s Ranch, Hill Seeker 4WD, Mr Apple, Property Brokers, Vet Service HB, Bridgestone Waipukurau, Hatuma Lime and Repco. Their contributions played a pivotal role in ensuring the success of the event.
The excursion climbed hilltops that few people are fortunate enough to explore.
The trek could not have taken place without the support and generosity of the 20 landowners whose properties were traversed on the day – taking the trek to hilltops that few people have been lucky enough to explore.
The event brought together more than 100 4WD vehicles, drivers and passengers.
Beyond the thrill of adventure, the Waipukurau Rotary Club’s 4WD Trek serves a higher purpose – to give back to the community. The funds raised from this event will be channelled into Rotary’s funding assistance programmes, which support initiatives including community projects, youth sports, youth development programs, and recognition of outstanding young employees through the Young Employee of the Year award.
