Maintenance of John Taylor Walkway - Halswell Quarry Park
Saturday 3 May.
Thank you to the members of Christchurch South Rotary as well as a few extra helpers who turned out to carry out maintenance and plant trees on the John Taylor Walkway. The John Taylor Walkway at Halswell Quarry Park was created by The RotaryClub of Christchurch South created in 2005, as a Rotary Centennial Project and in memory of former member and President John Taylor, who was prominent in Christchurch gardening circles. Club members regularly carry out maintenance on this delightful walkway under the supervision of the Park Rangers.
