Dunedin croquet club turning cheese rolls into a new clubroom
from Checkpoint
A Dunedin croquet club has been roughing it since 2018 after asbestos was found in their old clubrooms. The Tainui Croquet Club has no electricity, fresh water comes from a hose poked through a nearby fence, there's a portaloo and they share kai outside because the temporary building - an old shed - is too small to shelter them all. But they're hoping to turn cheese rolls and tea towel fundraisers into a new clubroom. Tess Brunton has more.
