Family Gives $10,000!

The McKee family, who have had a house in Pauanui for 30 years, have donated $10,000 to the Pauanui to Tairua Trail fund.

"This is a most  amazing and generous donation and it comes at a time when we are a little short of funds," Trail boss Gary Fowler said. "It is most welcome."

Mr Trevor McKee, who is from Hamilton and is well-known in wooden  packaging, said he and his wife Colleen have holidayed in Pauanui for 30 years and enjoyed the area with their extended family.

"We thought it would be nice to give something back to the community," he said.

The Trail is a wonderful asset. We hope our donation will spur others to give a little."
