    Tararuas - Tops mission to the Aircraft Wreck

    Hello Everyone

     

    The summer calendar is now posted and packed full of exiting trips, parties and other adventures.

     

    If you see something you are interested in, contact the organiser early – if they know there is interest early on the trip is a lot more likely to go.  

     

    If you’re keen on something else, or something mid week that’s great as well.  Use the website and meeting nights to suggest alternatives and organise and if you need any help organising a trip or have any questions about trips, feel free to email me or catch me at a meeting.

     

    Also before you go, make sure you have a contact person for the trip that knows where you are going, what you are doing and when you are due back.  This can be me if necessary or if not then someone else on the Club Committee.  And once you have been on a trip, make sure someone writes something up for Baa & Heels and then emails the tale to the publicity people Sarah or Steve.

     

    So with all that in mind, first up on the summer calendar this weekend is a Tararua tramp onto the Jumbo tops to visit an old aircraft wreck, or find out what remains of it.  It’s likely that there will be a fitter trip to the wreck, as well as something less adventurous.  If the weather is good there will be great views of the Wairarapa and Kapiti from the tops.  It may also be possible for some to come out on Saturday night for those that want to go to Nicolai’s party.  The trip will be leaving Friday night 5.30-6 from the Hunter carpark.

     

    So if you are interested then talk to me at tonight’s meeting or email Sarah with your fitness preference and if you have a car to help with transport.

     

     

    Cheers

    Hi Everyone
     
    Seems to me that the general consensis is to do a realitively mild trip, leaving saturday morning. But there is the option of a fitter group doing something different should they feel the need. 
     
    So, leaving early on Saturday morning.  Meet at hunter car park at 8am, and then drive to the road end.  Saturday, walk to Jumbo.  Sunday go up to the crash site and back to the car. 
     
    Since it would be nice to leave early on saturday, i reckon we should do shopping before meeting.  We've only got one dinner, so I'm just going to randomly delegate people to bring things.  Hope that's cool.  If anyone has any burning objections let me know. 
     
    Kieran - broccoli
    Guy - pasta sauce
    Amelia G -  pasta
    Hazel - pasta sauce
    Simon - canned tomatoes
    Jeremy - Mushrooms
    Amelia O - Kumera
    Bruce - Onions
    Alyn - cougettes
    Sarah - pasta
    Dale - pasta
    Craig S - carrots
    Shawn - cheese
     
    Also let me know if you're not coming. 
     
    We only need three cars. So if Kieran, Alyn and Simon bring their cars, should be sweet. If that's not cool, let me know. 
     
    Cool. 
     
    See you Saturday
     
    Sarah.
