ROTORUA: Good Sport - Local Legend

The Hits knows it – and we’re pretty sure you do too! Rotorua is a choice place to live – the lakes, the forests, the attractions, and of course the people are pretty awesome too.

That’s is why The Hits Rotorua and our local host Paul Hickey are on the search for Rotorua’s Local Legends! We’ve got 10 Legends to find, and it’s up to YOU to help us.

We’ll reveal the category, then you make the nominations. We’ll narrow it down to 5 finalists then it’s up to Rotorua to vote who wins the Local Legend Award!
