Wanaka welcomes the Hirepool Charity Golf Tournament to the Wanaka Golf Club. This event has benefited many local charities in recent years, and this year the Upper Clutha Children’s Medical Trust is delighted to be the recipient. The tournament is to be held over 3 days from 14-16 March.

Funds for the selected charity are raised by means of a live auction, a silent auction and raffles. Local businesses have once again generously donated items which should be very sought after by bidders. They include barbecues, hampers, wine, a valuable original artwork, accommodation at top lodges, a signed All Black jersey, golf packages, gold passes to Warbirds over Wanaka, jewellery and much, much more.

Each team will have a mix of experienced and novice navigators and experts will be available for support when needed. Each group can choose which activities to do and in what order to suit their own needs. A follow up session out on the mountains will be organised later in the year.
