Tomor­row night at the St Cath­er­ine’s Col­lege Hall in Kil­birnie, the WCC is hold­ing a pub­lic meet­ing to gauge com­munity opin­ion on the fate of the Maranui Surf Lifesav­ing Club and the adja­cent three water­front build­ings, and to dis­cuss the options.

The Maranui club house is a lis­ted her­it­age build­ing, dam­aged by fire on 1 August. 

A call has been put out (see today’s Cap­it­al Times art­icle) for Wel­ling­ton’s cre­at­ive types to come and show their sup­port and with people being encour­aged to come along in their speedos it’s going to be an enter­tain­ing night! 

Who says pub­lic meet­ings can­’t be fun!? 

If you’re out of town, you can sign the online peti­tion here to restore the build­ing to its former glory.
