Join us for a lakefront clean-up to celebrate Earth Day!
Earth Day is a reminder of the importance of environmental conservation and sustainability, encouraging us to come together and take action to protect the place we love.
We will be celebrating Papatūānuku and our beautiful district with a litter pick up as follows:
What: Earth Day 2024 Litter Pick Up
When: 10am to 12pm Saturday 27 April 2024
Where: Meet at the Taupō Floatplane carpark on Redoubt Street
What to bring: All supplies will be provided – just bring along your water bottle and wear closed toe shoes.
We’ll focus on collecting all the little bits of rubbish that can be so damaging to our lake’s ecosystem – things like cigarette butts, small plastic wrappers, and other micro plastics.
To say thank you for your efforts we’ll be whipping up fresh Earth Day themed pancakes. Yum!
The Earth Day 2024 theme is ‘Planet vs Plastics’, watch the Earth Day video to learn more about plastic pollution:

Let’s make 2024 the best Earth Day ever!
