Merry Christmas!

To all FOBC Supporters,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

A big thanks to those of you that have helped in any way during the last 12 months. It is very much appreciated.

As we wind down from another busy year, it is timely to reflect on the significant achievements our small grassroots group has achieved over the last 12 months. All this has been achieved through the dedication and hard work of our volunteers and committee members, who give their time, energy and skills to support the Friends of Bullock Creek objectives:- "to protect, restore and enhance the public amenity and the environment of Bullock Creek from head waters to its entry point into Lake Wanaka, New Zealand."

What we achieved:

  • A QEII Covenant registered over the Fish & Game 2.7ha wetland site

  • 2313 native plants in the ground

  • 765 wetland volunteer hours in 2023 - with over 6700 volunteer hours logged since the restoration project began in 2016

  • All Douglas Fir trees removed

  • 2 Bee Hives installed

  • Major rabbit control measuresA new noticeboard at Stone St entrance.

  • Hand watering station

  • 100's of committee member hours reviewing, liaising with other community groups, writing & making verbal submissions to local and regional authorities about actions or plans that affect the Bullock Creek environment.

  • More committee hours seeking funding from various organisations to continue the work of FOBC into the future.
