These are just some of the amazing facilities. Here we also have the golf club with 18 holes, the local gym which is used daily by the community and the school students, the rugby club/field is also used often, there are two rugby fields, swimming pool and numerous tennis courts. Squash courts, a bowling green, clay pigeon shooting, a rifle range under the Kurow Memorial Hall, and a wonderful race course.
Kurow has a pre-school and crèche, medical centre, plunket rooms, volunteer fire brigade, St John's ambulance, a residential home for the aged, senior net facilities, a museum, a community information centre, police station and a full primary school.
In Kurow we have great facilities. We have many sports clubs in Kurow. In the summer we play tennis and swim. In the winter we can play rugby, bowls, netball and more. You can use the gun club all year around. Most Saturdays in the winter the young people have to travel to Oamaru, to play netball, rugby or soccer. Most people in Kurow love to play a sport.
We are very lucky in Kurow to have the Waitaki River and the hydro lakes at our door step. It is only a short trip to the Ohau ski field.
