Dedication of the Michael Taylor Memorial Dry Stone Seat at Waerenga Hut
Sunday 9th June, 2013
Eleven of us walked into Waerenga Hut on Sunday 9th June, arriving before lunch, to dedicate the Michael Taylor memorial dry stone seat. After a brief ceremony we scattered some of his ashes and reminisced about what Michael had meant to us. A small plaque is to be attached to the seat when the weather is drier. We then shared a communal lunch after which we returned to the Catchpool carpark. Before we left the opportunity was taken to install a new hut door sign.
