Hi,
By now you should know about our efforts to support Weta in the Hunua Ranges via our Weta Hotel project - visit our Weta Web Page for all the details.
It is great that you have chosen to help the Weta by purchasing our unique Friends of Hunua Ranges Weta Hotels. We ask that you make at least a $30 donation to Friends of Hunua Ranges for each Weta Hotel we make for you (includes P&P). Upon receipt of your order, our team of crafty engineers will construct you very own Weta Hotel. Upon completion, we will either deliver direct to you for locating on your property or we will locate into dedicated areas of the Hunua Ranges, providing you with regular updates on how they are faring.
Simply fill in the form below to register your interest. We will then send you details via email with instructions on how to make your payment (internet bank transfer).
If you have any specific question not covered in this section please contact our Chairman Merv Hood directly at chair@friendsofhunuaranges.co.nz.
