David Hill is in Kaikōura today where the local A&P show returns after Covid-19 forced its cancellation last year.
In 2016 the Kaikōura A&P Association came close to folding due to a lack of committee members and then the 2016 earthquake led to the 2017 show being cancelled.
Also the Kaikōura Dark Sky Trust has voted to begin the process of applying for dark sky sanctuary status with the International Dark Sky Association.
David Hill is Local Democracy Reporter with North Canterbury News, based in Rangiora.
