Papamoa Unlimited with Wayne George of Papamoa Progressive Society

We at the Papamoa Progressive Association, trust that your Christmas and New Year holidays were enjoyable and we extend our best wishes to you and yours for a successful and prosperous 2016.

Holiday makers and visitors alike continue to enjoy the fabulous environment and the events here in our slice of paradise… Papamoa.

The local activities, such as Dinner in the Domain, Little Big Markets et al, continue to attract and entertain our welcome visitors, all of whom are helping to drive our local economy.

The beach is stunning (as ever), with the safety of swimmers being overseen by the magnificent efforts of our surf-lifesaving volunteers-they do a superb job and deserve many accolades. Please remember to 'swim between the flags”.

Reports of shark and fur seal sightings have increased beach-goer excitement!

As the PPA embarks upon another busy year, this is an opportune time to thank the hard-working committee volunteers for their unstinting efforts behind the scenes, ensuring that our monthly meetings proceed without a hitch and include interesting and entertaining guest speakers and updates from our local council representatives.

The next scheduled PPA general/ meeting is on Monday, February 8, with our AGM/general meeting taking place on Monday, March 14.

We will be seeking committee nominations for the AGM, so please consider offering some of your time and becoming involved with assisting us in our work, linking Papamoa residents to our local council. Our district is the fastest growing suburb in NZ and strong representation to council is paramount for Papamoa.

As our population continues to increase, alongside local services, keep yourselves safe and enjoy the benefits of residing in this fabulous piece of paradise.
