Whāingaroa,Raglan Destination Management Organisation (WRDMO) invites the community to celebrate the completion of the community-led water tower mural project.
Join the team behind the project for the karakia/blessing of the new mural and BBQ kai on Friday, December 20 from 11.30am on the corner of Norrie Ave and Bow St.
As well as the stunning mural, the project also includes signage and a website to tell the history of the town water supply, the importance and history of the whenua (land) to hāpu and iwi, and the story behind the original mural.
Massive appreciation to Theo Arraj for his vision, and to the hāpu and youth voices who have been instrumental in the development of this project. Thanks also to Satnam, Raglan Four Square for sponsoring food and refreshments.
The reservoir restoration project has been funded with thanks to WEL Energy Trust, Progressive Property, Waikato District Council, and Raglan Naturally Community Trust for support with funding from the Department of Internal Affairs Community-Led Development Fund.
