The lack of rain has meant we have had a good run with it. We cant prune in rain as disease can set in where the fresh pruning cuts have been made. What we are wanting now is a cold spell. We don’t want the vines to come out of dormancy too soon. The grapes that we picked in April/May are being bottled in the next few weeks. Pinot Gris ; Ries- ling and Rose. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir sit in Oak barrels till next year. (Now you know why Chardonay and Pinot Noir are usually more expensive than Gris etc) Barrels are expensive and the grapes are a lot more labour intensive and demand more attention from the winemaker. We are busy in the cellar door getting it ready for when we re -open. We will open in AUGUST. Date still to be confirmed. Any wine orders while Cellar Door is closed can be done direct with me .

Brilliant neighbours OEers over F340 000 WELL DONE Phone 027 2224584 TWO BURGLARIES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS: Unfortunately there have been two burglaries in Kurow township in the last two weeks! One burglar was seen walking around the property with a torch at about 9.30pm but Police were not called. This is no criticism as the observer did try and contact the property owner but in these circumstanced please dial 111. The operator will immediately call me and any other officer who may be in the area. Some residents may not be aware but there are frequently up to eight police cars patrolling the Waitaki valley at any one time which can be directed to help. This by the way has reduced our recent drink drive spike to an acceptable level…that level being ZERO drink drivers caught for three weeks. So back to the burglaries…you can draw your own conclusions from the properties targeted were unoccupied and bedding including pillows, blankets and a duvet were targeted along with a flat screen television. Entry was gained prizing open windows with a big screw driver or similar. I am patrolling a lot at night now, often on foot to see if we can nip this in the bud. With regard to preventing burglaries I’m wondering is there a local builder, handyman who is interested in offering a service fitting window security catches? Both houses where entered very easily through wooden windows without security catches. I imagine there would be good up take in the valley especially if a gold card discount were offered ; ) How about someone placing an advert in the Bugle and testing the market? FIREARMS BUY -BACK The information and systems for handing in illegal semi automatic firearms can all be found on website www.police.govt.nz and advice on 0800 311 311. Many owners seem to have held off until compensation amounts were released. As an indication gun owners will receive 95% of base price for new or near new firearms, 70% for used guns and 25% of base price if in poor condition. Payout for illegal magazines and parts is 70% of base price for new/near new and 25% if in poor condition. Claimants must hold a valid firearms license and remember there is still a firearms amnesty in place. There are also a number of collection points organised all over the district. Senior Constable Pete Scott [email protected] Cell 021 1923 851 Long-time advocate for Ahuriri stands down To look at him youʼd never guess they call him "the Rottweiler". “Ooh, you better not put that bit in …but thatʼs what they call me, down there…itʼs ‘cause I wonʼt ever let things go.” 'Down there' is the Waitaki District Council chambers and offices in Oamaru. Otematata's Graham Sullivan sees it as a compliment, and heʼs laughing. The 82-year-old Ahuriri Community Board chairman has not been letting matters go for the past 12 years. But come the October local body elections the Ahuriri Ward will lose this committed community advocate as Graham steps down from the role to spend a little more time actively retired. He was 70 years young when he was first elected to the board. At the time he lived in Waimate but spent as much, if not more, time in Otematata.

    LEAP Research Report No. 52 Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail Visitor Survey 2020 Lena Mkwara David Simmons Geoffrey Kerr November 2020 Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail Visitor Survey 2020 Lena Mkwara David Simmons Geoffrey Kerr Land Environment and People Research Report Report No. 52 November 2020 ISSN 1172-0859 (Print) ISSN 1172-0891 (PDF) ISBN 978-0-86476-452-2 (Print) ISBN 978-0-86476-455-3 (PDF) Lincoln University, Canterbury, New Zealand Abstract This report presents the findings from a 2020 survey of Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail (A2O) cyclists. COVID-19 cancelled fieldwork before data collection was complete. The limited data indicate that cyclists are extremely satisfied with the A2O and associated services, and make substantial expenditures associated with their ride. The A2O was a strong attractant to cyclists, the large majority of whom would not have visited the districts in the absence of the trail. Keywords A2O Cycle Trail, tourist attractions, tourism spending, economic attribution model, Mackenzie District, Waitaki District Acknowledgements This project benefitted immensely from the contributions of others. We wish to thank the following people for their generosity and assistance. Waitaki District Council, Tourism Waitaki and Cycle Journeys for their guidance and support. Accommodation providers and visitor centre operators who assisted with the distribution of survey cards. Lincoln University colleagues who peer reviewed the survey instrument. Dr Sally Driml, University of Queensland, for peer review of the survey instrument and the economic attribution model. Dr Yvonne Mathews, University of Waikato/Waikato Regional Council, for structuring the interactive mapping inputs. Dr Bentry Mkwara for GIS mapping assistance.
