Foul weather didn't deter more than 200 people taking to the streets of Dargaville as part of the national March for Moko demonstrations.
Heavy rain blanketed the town on Monday and, while the atrocious conditions may have put some off, more than 200 people, including many children, took part in the march.
Wendy Laird, from one of the rally organisers SOS Kaipara, said the turnout was amazing considering the conditions.
Ms Laird said it was a reflection of the depth of feeling people had over the Moko case.
