“We’ve had a lot of feedback from youth asking for more events in South Taranaki. We’ve partnered with the council to bring this fun event to the community.”
As well as the paint drop, Zeal Taranaki has organised other fun things for the event.
“There will be face paint, zorb balls, a bouncy castle, sumo wrestling, and ice cream and gelato for sale. We wanted to make this event accessible for all so everyone can find something that suits them.”
The paint party isn’t the only fun Zeal Taranaki has planned for South Taranaki, with a skate competition also taking place this month.
“The competition will take place at the local skate park. The council has also partnered with us for this event as well. There will be a panel of judges, live music, and plenty of giveaways.”
People can enter the competition in the beginner, intermediate or advanced categories.
“It’s open to intermediate and high-school-aged rangatahi. Three people from each group will go to the grand finals where they will be judged and placed first second or third. We’re looking forward to bringing this event, and our paint party to South Taranaki.”
