Box 7324 WANGANUI 4541 www.wanganuitrampingclub.org.nz Issue 250 AUGUST 2016 - OCT 2016 Annual Report Wanganui Tramping Club AGM, 1 June 2016 Though our club is following the nationwide trend – ie, the majority of our members are in the older age bracket - our membership numbers remain strong and steady. Participant numbers for midweek activities are excellent, along with our weekend one-day trips, proving that many people still love the NZ outdoors. Days spent pushing personal physical boundaries, getting soaking wet or sunburnt, enjoying our flora and fauna, are labelled as "great days out". And doing these things with friends and like-minded folks is the icing on the cake. A thriving club does not happen by itself. It takes the dedication, time, expertise and caring of many people to keep it running so well. Tonight I would like to personally thank those people: Dorothy Symes - for her untiring work as our secretary and treasurer. Keeping track of the finances is a time- consuming job, and Dorothy's local knowledge of people and businesses is of great value. Bruce Thomas and Dick Mitchell - for keeping our vehicles on the road in excellent running order, despite a troublesome side door on our new van - ex mechanics do come in handy!! Russell Donaldson - for keeping tabs on vehicle fuel running costs and producing figures for passenger charges, to be sure we are covering expenses and building up finances for replacement vehicles. Basil Hooper, Dorothy and Bruce - for the continued development and maintenance of the Waitahinga trails: liaising with the District Council regarding trail boundaries, the possibility or necessity of toilets, and the better positioning and size of the carpark. These trails are a wonderful asset for the Wanganui area and we must keep the Council believing that. Barry Francis and Peter Miller - for their dedication to our beautiful Mangaturuturu Hut. Their continued maintenance and upgrading work keeps the hut in tiptop condition, even if Barry has been slowed down a little over recent weeks!! (Perhaps tramping is safer than canoeing.) With the proposed closing in of the President’s Report Continued: veranda and a revised Memorandum of Understanding between WTC and DOC due shortly, the club may have to revise our collection of finance. Brian Sixtus and Bruce Thomas - for their tireless care and maintenance of Possum Lodge. Regular trips there are often unspoken about until they report on work done. Our little Raurimu cottage is a fantastic family getaway destination, close to Ruapehu and National Park, with numerous walks and cycle tracks nearby. Midweek tramping and cycling leaders and organisers, particularly: Earle Turner (Thursdays); Barbara Gordon (Thursdays and Tuesday cycling); Margaret Walford and Carolyn Shingleton (TT2 walks); Sandra Rogers (organizing leaders list for Wednesday tramps); Margret McKinnon (co-ordinating Wednesday tramps). Roger Kealey - for visualizing, organising then doing, little by little, the Lower North Island portion of the Te Araroa Trail. At the time of writing there are two sections to go to the Cook Strait. Then, is it ‘South Island here we come’? Tracey Hooper, Mike Cole, Mark Kennedy - for organising and leading mountainbike trips throughout the North and South Island. Tracey has set up some amazing trips over past years, the logistics of which are often more difficult and detailed than for tramping trips. David Scoullar and Brian Sixtus - for putting together our three monthly, weekend tramp and activity schedule, giving us usually two options every weekend. Also for organising and encouraging club members to lead these activities. David Scoullar - for the many and varied, fun, educational and interesting articles for Tramper magazine, including of course the dreaded Longdrop’s ‘Pack Talk’. These articles do not just drop out of the sky, they take a lot of time and research to produce. Dave also combines with Margaret Walford to produce the monthly Billy Tea newspaper article, promoting the club’s up and coming activities. We get many enquirers from Billy Tea , often leading to new memberships. Barbara Gordon - for dealing with these enquirers and giving out relevant information. Chris Maher - for editing our great quarterly Tramper magazine, no easy task when many of us leave sending in copy until the last moment. Chris stepped up at very short notice to do the magazine and is doing a great job producing our outstanding mag. Barbara Gordon - for her meticulous proof reading for the magazine. Betty Luff and Jacky Evans – for preparing the magazine for distribution: stapling, labelling,and sorting all ready for us to pick up, take home and read. The magazine gives all of us many hours of enjoyable and informative reading and provides a ready reference for names, contacts, trip details etc. Basil Hooper - for that very welcome cuppa at the end of our meeting, a time to catch up and enjoy a chat. The WTC Committee – for keeping the day to day running of the club in order. Margret McKinnon - for filling in for me when I "Go Bush"; tramping is what it's all about. To many other individuals who contribute in so many ways, whom I have not specifically mentioned.To every member of The Wanganui Tramping Club for being part of our present and thus ensuring WTC’s future -THANK YOU.

  • Riparian Management and Public Access – Policy RP2
    Riparian Management and Public Access – Policy RP2 RIPARIAN MANAGEMENT AND PUBLIC ACCESS - POLICY RP2.1 Introduction Many waterways within the District are significant to the District community. Traditionally, they have been a source of food, a place for recreation, a medium for transport and a source of scenic and spiritual value. The waterways also have a number of other social and economic values. Section 6 of the Act requires, as a matter of national importance, the preservation of the natural character of wetlands and lakes and rivers and their margins, and the protection of them from inappropriate subdivision, use and development. Council must recognise this matter in its District Plan. In recognising this matter, Council is mindful that the use of regulation may not be the most effective and efficient method available in all situations. The maintenance and enhancement of public access to and along lakes and rivers is also a matter that Council must recognise and provide for. Presently within the District, access to waterways is obtained by a number of mechanisms, including existing reserves, marginal strips, legal roads (formed and unformed), across public land and by agreement with landowners. The District has many waterways which are significant for recreation activities such as rafting, fishing and walking. The most significant recreational waterways have been specified in the Plan. For these waterways, it is the priority to ensure that good opportunities for gaining public access are provided. There are also a number of other waterways in the District where public access is desired. However, this may only be on certain areas of a waterway.
