Rubberneckers – stay away from Edgecumbe
Rubberneckers – stay away from Edgecumbe. Better still, come and help
Rubberneckers are hampering the efforts of the 150 volunteers helping in the clean-up of Edgecumbe today.
Whakatāne District Mayor Tony Bonne says members of the Ngāti Awa Volunteer Army are reporting a steady stream of sightseeers driving around the streets of Edgecumbe.
“They’re getting in the way – and this is frustrating and annoying for the volunteers and residents working on the clean-up.
Mayor Bonne says if you are concerned for the people of Edgecumbe then come and help with the clean-up.
Anyone who wishes to help with the clean-up is
encouraged to register at
www.whakatane.govt.nz/project-edgecumbe. Volunteers will be
contacted directly to confirm when and where they are
required to assist.
