Welcoming in February in Paekakariki. The intoxicating scent of kawakawa along Wainui stream. Salt water on the skin. The hazy beat of the cicada. The bleat of rogue goats on Paekakariki Hill. Lycra clad men cycling past to do the bike trail. Anticipation of festivals and parties to come. Friends reuniting after the break. School. Work. Thud.
And we’re back! Your community radio station Paekakariki 88.2FM has its first batch of new shows for you all week from this afternoon. Over 30 of them. Your neighbours in the studio playing great diverse tunes and doing the good chat. This really is world class! Even better! The schedule is here and below – tune in  88.2Fm or stream at www.paekakariki.org.nz. (click for bigger version)
