Mangawhai beach fun

It’s all go over the holiday period for the Mangawhai Heads Volunteer Lifeguard Service, kicking off with beach volleyball on Boxing Day at 4pm.

Head down to the surf beach with a team of five or the club will help you get a team together.

The fundraiser costs the grand sum of $2 per player per game and you can bring the family and friends to cheer you on before getting stuck into a BBQ dinner for $10 a plate.

The following day, December 27, sees a family fun beach day from 10am.

The event includes games for kids and adults, Head Rock swim, little miss and master Mangawhai pageant and a big dig.

Food and drinks will be available.

Get yourself a team together for the raft race on January 4 from 9am. The annual contest runs from from Picnic Bay to the boat ramp.

For more information visit the surf club or call Megs on 021-275-8326.

All proceeds go to the Mangawhai Surf Life Saving Club.

Lifeguards are on weekend patrols over the summer period.
