HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Wanaka Station Park is the site of the former homestead of Wanaka Station. In New Zealand, a "station" is a very large farm or ranch. In the 1800s, Wanaka Station was a very large holding owned by the New Zealand pioneer industrialist, Percy Sargood. After Mr Sargood died in 1941, part of the station was bought at auction by his daughter and given to the community by the Wanaka Station Trust in 1977.

Wanaka Station Park contains the remains of the second homestead (both the first and the second homestead were destroyed by fire) and the surrounding large garden which has been restored in recent years. It is maintained as a public garden by the Queenstown Lakes District Council. A feature is a rose arbor containing roses popular in the early 1900s.
