In the loop – July 2025

How lucky are we to have had two days of settled weather, as I write this article with the sun on my back, I really hope it continues for a few more, just lovely. 

 I thought I would share with you some of the words from our recently printed brochure.  The team is thrilled at the fabulous job Artikel & Swint from Timaru have done for us in the design and layout and the equally fabulous printing job that Lynn River provided for our first 50 copies.  Thank you both very much, keeping our professional branding at the highest level is very important to us, and you both deliver in bucket loads. 

 Art helps us express our emotions, to communicate our thoughts and feelings, and to explore the depths of our imaginations.  By engaging with art, we can discover more about ourselves, and the world around us, cultivate empathy and understanding. 

 Placing art in nature creates a partnership which can surprise and delight.  The changing seasons and times of the day will also change how the art is viewed and experienced during each visit. 

 For information regarding the trail and how you can be apart of it’s future please call me on 027 222 7663. 

As always, all the best,

Rosie.
