Big Awatoto Beach Clean-Up this Saturday
Hawke’s Bay people are being encouraged to come along and help clean up the beach at this weekend’s Big Awatoto Beach Clean-up.
Hawke’s Bay Regional Council is holding the beach clean-up at Awatoto this Saturday, as part of Seaweek activities.
Everyone is welcome to attend the event from 9am-12pm on Saturday, which will include games, prizes and of course the beach clean-up.
Those interested in attending should look for the flag between the two bridges at the Waitangi/Ngaruroro entrance, on State Highway 2.
There will be a free barbecue afterwards for all volunteers at the National Aquarium of New Zealand.
Bring along gloves, a drink bottle and some study footwear. Rubbish bags and some other gear will be provided.

The Big Awatoto Beach Clean-up is proudly supported by Hawke’s Bay Regional Council, along with Napier City and Hastings District Councils, the National Aquarium of New Zealand and the New Zealand Association of Environmental Educators.
