Te Puawaitanga manager Alison Bourn was told it would take up to two weeks before they were fully booked. "Within 24 hours of going live on the national booking system last week, we were fully booked for the first two days. And I had a quick look last night and we're fully booked for about 10 days now. So I'm pleased that we've been able to meet the needs of the community."
