P O R T N E L S O N I N T H E C O M M U N I T Y Export is the lifeblood of Nelson-Tasman and at Port Nelson we are aware of the vital role we play as the ‘region’s gateway to the world’. From forestry, seafood, fruit, wine and imports, the wellbeing of the region as a whole is intrinsically linked to Port Nelson in some way. The community ownership of Port Nelson Limited is reflected in the strong role the company plays in the region in sports, arts, community and business. We are one of the region’s largest sponsors putting over $150,000 a year into support for a number of events, groups and projects. This year we continued to develop partnerships themed around the youth in the community and saw excellent results - our funding of a coach for the Nelson Rowing Club has seen the squad win gold at the Mardi Cup and selected rowers competing for New Zealand in Beijing. We continued to build on the success of the entry level multisport event, the Port Nelson Blokes’ Day Out, with increased entries and a large contingent from our own staff; we are in our third year of sponsorship with the Tasman Makos as a First XV supporter of the combined Nelson Marlborough side. The third Nelson Port and Transport Industry Charity Golf Tournament was held in November, attracting a capacity field, and providing an opportunity for the industry to get together and raise money for the very worthwhile cause of sending the Nelson Special Olympic Squad to Beijing. Out in the streets of the city we maintain a high profile with support for the Port Nelson Santa Parade and the Port Nelson Masked Parade, which opens the Nelson Arts Festival every year. Drawing crowds in excess of 10,000 these are Nelson’s biggest participation events. The Port Nelson Trust helps a wide range of community groups. Over the past year funds were distributed by the trust to a range of sports, community and arts projects. In the business community our support for the Nelson economy continues as a key stakeholder in the Nelson Regional Economic Development Agency, a cornerstone sponsor of the Nelson-Tasman Chamber of Commerce and supporter of the Nelson Bays Educational Business partnership, with Infrastructure Manager Dick Carter chairing the Nelson Engineering Group. The amenities berth on Wakefield Quay is now home to the Nelson Coast Guard, provided free of charge by Port Nelson to support this vital service to the community, and we continue to allow public access for fishing in this area. 8 Port Open Day, February 07.
Port Nelson’s support of the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter Trust ensures that our volunteers receive vital training in water rescue and winch operation. Our family of sponsors and the support of the community help provide a free dedicated air rescue service, on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
