August 2022 Travel Update

Tuesday 2 Aug, 2022

Hello to all,

We had our mid-winter dinner in the Events Centre Hall at the club on Friday 1 July. We had 95 members attend this function which most of them thoroughly enjoyed. The food was fantastic, the staff led by Karen, were incredible, especially considering the difficult time the Club had having the staff available with so many of them having covid related illnesses. I admire the management in making these events possible. Well done team.

A big thank you to Tracey, Greer and as already mentioned Karen in making this such a wonderful evening for us. Also, a big congrats to our wonderful duo Churbro – we love your music guys. Thank you.

On 21 August we are travelling on the Alpine Express to Lake Brunner with lunch provided at Moana Hotel. We have 50 people travelling on this excursion. Train departs 8.15am check in 7.45am. Returns from Moana at 2.45pm arriving back in Christchurch 7pm. Please make your own way to the Christchurch Railway station by 7.45am at the latest. We are able to pick up and drop off at Rolleston, so if you require this please do contact Lyn urgently to arrange. I already have one name requiring this stop. Our trip down South for six days commences on 24 September. This should be a fun time for all travelling on this.

Our next meeting will be held Monday 15 August 7pm at the Hornby Club.

Keep warm everyone and stay safe.

Warm regards,
Lyn Wright
