Finally, COVID-delayed presentations A BREAK IN THE “COVID WEATHER” HAS finally allowed for further 2020 presentations to be completed. While we wait for 2021 results, we have included some long-awaited presentations for crews and participants from Ernslaw One in the North Island. Congratulations to the team at Kaha Logging – overall second place for Yarder crews and a specific mention for Chris Winter who topped the manual tree felling competition with a perfect result for the year. From memory, we have only seen this once before in the competition’s history. So, congratulations to all those who achieved outstanding results in 2020, let’s look to improve on these in 2021.
