Annual Tree Planting - Tawa's Bush Reserves I hope you can join us for our annual tree planting on Sunday 13 June at 1.00pm. The Rotary Club of Port Nicholson has teamed up with The Friends of Tawas Bush Reserves for the fourth year in a row to plant trees at Woodburn Bush Reserve, 66 Bing Lucas Drive, Tawa. Our goal is to build on what we did the last two years – over 1500 trees in total! We will continue planting native trees in Tawa to regenerate our native Bush to provide habitat and food for the increasing numbers of native birds, to make lovely walking areas for us all, and to help slow down global warming. Interact and Rotaract members are very welcome to join us. Tree planting is for everyone. You don’t have to be super fit to join us. There are several jobs to choose from or you could do some of each such as: digging holes; planting trees, setting out trees for planting, and picking up the tree packets for reusing. Another option is to help out with the afternoon tea. There are lots of ways to contribute and everybody is welcome to come along. If you’re joining us for the tree planting here are the details:
If you would like to take part, please accept this invitation and provide your contact phone number. I am coordinating the Club’s participation and can be reached on 021 265 6220 or email landm.king@xtra.co.nz We hope to see you on Sunday 13th June at 1pm.

Fun Celebration Dinner at Bellamys by Logan Brown Bellamys is one of the true culinary destinations of Wellington. We have booked a table (or two) at this iconic restaurant for Rotary friends and family to celebrate the beginning of the new Rotary year and the new Port Nicholson team. A short walk from the formal event, at The Wellington Club, and you will be dining in luxury for the price of a family meal at the golden arches. This is a strictly pay as you go event, so individual accounts, but I suggest you should consider sharing a bottle or two of wine with your neighbours, to get the best out of the night. For a glimpse of the menu check out: https://www.bellamysbyloganbrown.co.nz/new-zealand-cuisine Cost is $45 for two courses and $60 for 3 courses per person. I am expecting the majority will be 2 courses, entree and main or main and dessert. Drinks are extra. Everyone needs to be pre-booked. Due to the security arrangements at Bellamys there is ZERO possibility of you being able to "front up on the night". RSVP no later than 23 June. Places are limited. If you have special dietary requirements, please describe in the comments box so I can advise the Chef accordingly. I will come back to you if he is unable to meet your demands. |
