Motor Camp
Motor Camp.
For the benefit of motorists the local Progress League, in conjunction with the Domain Board, has arranged for a splendid motor camping area at the Domain, where there is plenty of shelter available, and where all the usual facilities for campers are provided at a nominal fee, which is collected by the curator. This money is devoted to defraying the cost of improvements for the benefit of motorists, and the upkeep of the camping area, which is situated in ideal surroundings facing the banks of the Temuka River.
Motorists have the choice of a number of interesting drives along the best of roads, and the great Pacific Ocean is only a quarter of an hour's drive away.
