How long is too long for a fundraising effort?
Some in Motueka have an idea.
The community has been fundraising for an indoor, heated pool for at least 20 years.
And its not that there's a lack of support, half a million dollars has been raised by residents and various organisations.
But people are asking where the money has gone - and if they will ever see an indoor pool in Motueka.
