The award-winning TECT Park is now more than 10 years old and to celebrate, they’re looking to see what new activities and experiences could be added to
the park.
They’re seeking fresh ideas to help TECT Park enter an exciting new phase.
The 1650-hectare site, jointly owned by Western Bay of Plenty District Council and Tauranga City Council, is located about halfway between Tauranga and Rotorua.
It is the home of the Adrenalin Forest high-wire adventure course as well as many outdoor activities including tracks for walking, mountain biking, horse riding and a dog exercise area.
Onsite club activities include shooting ranges, motorsport tracks, and model aircraft flying fields.
More than 30,000 people visit the park each year, and they’re looking to see what new experiences could be added to help boost these numbers.
Everyone who provides their ideas will go in the draw to win exciting prizes like a mountain bike voucher, Adrenalin Forest passes, and Stoney Creek vouchers – perfect to use at TECT Park.
Western Bay of Plenty District Council general manager infrastructure group, Cedric Crow says the park continues to evolve with sustainability, education, and cultural significance, key to the park’s future, along with providing for the many clubs and user groups.
“This park is a great example of what is possible when we work in partnership with Tauranga City Council and our community.
“We’re excited to hear from our community on what else they would like established or to experience at the park, as this will help guide our thinking to shape the park’s future direction.”
Tauranga City Council spaces and places manager Alison Law says TECT Park is entering an exciting new phase.
“TECT Park is a real local asset for those who love the outdoors, or those looking for a new hobby or challenge outside of their comfort zone.
“Since it opened, we’ve seen TECT Park grow with what it can offer, and this will continue in the coming years.”
