Changing ways
Congratulations to Doug Klever and his supporters, a few surfers among them, for "drawing a line in the sand" regarding the degradation of our beach at Ahipara and committing themselves to the on-going care and protection of this ecosystem in the voluntary roles of kaitiaki.
Their resolve will be tested again this summer, but with legislative and community backing we can bring about a change in driving habits on this stretch of beach, and hopefully all the way around Tauroa Point.
