The clubs raised half the money for the building of the gymnasium and members donated their time to build the facility. The Council became involved so that grants for war memorial funding could be given. A condition of this funding was that the New Plymouth City Council own the land and the gymnasium. </p> <p>The two rugby clubs merged in the late 1980s. The hall is managed by a joint committee (Star Gym Control Committee) comprising of Council officers and rugby club representatives. <br /> </p></div></p><div class="liner">&nbsp;</div><div class='itemheading'>Stock Car Club Inc, Taranaki</div><br><strong>Category:</strong> Sport and Recreation<p><strong>Phone: </strong>06-765 5693<br /><strong>Address:</strong> Flint Rd, Stratford<br /><strong>Postal address:</strong> PO Box 397, Stratford 4352<br /><strong>Email:</strong> <a href="mailto:info@stratford-speedway.co.nz">info@stratford-speedway.co.nz</a><div><p> </p></div></p><div class="liner">&nbsp;</div><div class='itemheading'>Stoney Oaks Wildlife Park</div><br><strong>Category:</strong> Tourism<p>Enjoy a close encounter of the animal kind.
