Opinion

Yes, the Tolaga Bay Inn still needs a lick of paint. But like people, it’s what’s inside that counts and the heart of Tolaga Bay Inn is working well.

The intervention and help being given to local people to get their own businesses off the ground is greater than any other organisation in Tolaga Bay. With the help of the latest computer technology, including 3D printing, locals are becoming proficient with technology.

The cafe serves locals and tourists with good fresh food.

Rooms within the Tolaga Bay Inn on Sunday morning are used as a meeting place for a group who have no local church.

On Sunday afternoon twice a month the Tolaga Bay Country and Variety Club meet to enable local singers and bands to enjoy an afternoon of socialising.

Many other groups are able to use the Tolaga Bay Inn free of charge.
