Vacancies for volunteers on Maungatautari

The Maungatautari Trust is looking for more volunteers to help with the pest monitoring work currently being conducted across the 3,400 hec- tares of native forest on the mountain. "We have shortened some of our longer moni- toring circuits and therefore require more moni- tors," says Trust chief executive Jim Mylchreest. Each month the pest monitoring volunteers replace bait and tracking cards in more than 2,600 tracking tunnels over the main mountain. Teams have a defined circuit, on average 4.5km, and a 16 day window in which to change their bait and tracking cards. While all volunteers work in teams of two or more, the Trust can sometimes buddy people up. Everyone receives a set of guidelines, appropriate maps, directions and instructions, and a brief training session before they actually undertake any monitoring. "We’re looking for people to join our motivated and committed team — people who have some bush skills and who are reasonably fit. "The pest monitoring work is a crucial element in the pest eradication operation as it provides valuable feedback on any pest activity to the Trust field team. All pest monitors are helping to create the largest pest free conservation area on main- land New Zealand - something they should all feel immensely proud of." For more volunteer information please contact Maungatautari’s volunteer coordinator Ally Tairi on 07 823 7477 or [email protected]. Healthy, active childhood push The theme chosen by New Zealand Cancer Society for World Cancer Day last Wednesday was ‘I love my healthy, active childhood’. This theme was focused on the link between being overweight and cancer. Dr Jan Pearson, Health Promotion manager for the Cancer Society says we all need to encourage young people to eat better and exercise more. MAGNETIC INSECT SCREENS
