CHRISTMAS is a Special Gathering Time
for the Community centred in Piopio
Christmas is fast approaching and along with it comes Piopio's Annual Christmas Parade. so now’s the time to get together and organise yourselves for this popular and fun-filled event.
This year we would like to welcome more participation with
" Floats on Foot".
The criteria is - those on foot must be in costume representing their particular club or group.
eg: Kapa Haka, Bowls, Tennis, Hockey, Netball, Rugby, Swimming, Schools, Dog Clubs, Local area Halls,
Rec Centre, Rowing, ........bla,bla,bla
Think about perhaps what makes your group significant within the community.
Piopio has been the core area for many great people and groups, so it would be fantastic to recognise and celebrate all the little pockets about the area.

* "Piopio" was originally a Maori family's name for a small part of their farm, after a failed potato crop. Using the name for the whole district came about by confusion when Pakeha settlers came.
