Hello everyone…
We are looking forward to welcoming
everyone to Wellington in two months’ time.. It’s going to be a good week
with our special Main Event dinner on Thursday, November 20. And there
are still tickets for the Rolling Stones in Auckland on November 22 if anyone
is interested.
I’ve been away but am now on
deck, meeting Victoria University Chancellor Ian McKinnon this week to go over
details.
Look out for the Victorious magazine article in October starring
KK Chong. And our committee member, David White, is coming up to Kuala
Lumpur for work this week carrying details of the reunion. It’s all go.
Boomrock on Sunday, November 16th
– We need to confirm:
Our possible Farming/Sporting/Gourmet
day at Boomrock needs 15 participants to make it happen. We’ve been asked
to confirm as it’s a popular spot.
Could you let me know if you
definitely want to come… by Monday, 15 September? Local
Kiwis are welcome too. Details are below.
Registrations and Payment
There’s still room at the Reunion so
you are welcome to encourage your friends and colleagues to come…and confirm by
payment if you haven’t already.
Registrations are coming in but we need
lots of Kiwis now to fill it up, just like our Malaysian friends did in Kuala
Lumpur. So let your friends know if you are coming. Local Kiwis are
welcome at any event.
Boomrock Details:
We’ve organised a Day at Boomrock as
a possible activity on Sunday, 16 November
2014. Boomrock is a spectacular farm about half an hour’s drive from
Wellington.
The $185 price per person includes transport from the Museum
Hotel in Wellington at 9am, sheep shearing in the woolshed at Boomrock, morning
tea, petanque, horseshoe throwing, walks and a gourmet four course lunch.
There are also other activities including archery, golf ball hitting over the
cliffs and even BMW testing. Transport back at 3pm.
Go to the Boomrock
website and see what they have to offer. Then let me know if
you’d like to come. This replaces the Martinborough Food and Wine
Festival.
