Fundraisers
Cooking up Your Breast Life As a group of wāhine toa we not only focus on paddling together with attitude, we also work hard to raise the money we need to keep our teams on the waters of Whanganui-a-Tara each season. We know that bringing a group of powerful, positive women together usually involves sharing nourishing kai. That's why we've decided to create this fundraising cookbook of our favourite foods, to share with you. Find out more and pre-order your copy, here. |
