To you all you Port Nic Gardeners...it's that time again.

We have a garden that needs a bit of  help in Mitchell St ,Brooklyn - does that address sound familiar?? Yes - it's because it our current President Jo Douglas' address! 

On the second Sunday morning of October. A bit of weeding, and cutting things (always fun), and a little bit of lugging dirt - downhill which is good! Jo has a couple of planter boxes that need filling up with soil so she can grow some lovely organic veges.

If you are able to provide some green fingers for a couple of hours I'm sure we can make Jo's life a little bit happier. Just to recall, this is to fulfill our commitment from the auction last year - so it's already been paid for! 

I'm looking at kicking off at 9.00am and finishing up around 12.30-1pm at the latest. If you can lend an hour or two in between those times it would be appreciated.

Register by clicking below or send me an email at brent.gerrard@outlook.com and let me know if you can help.

Cheers,

Brent

Lets help raise some money for "Everybody Eats" as well as having a fun get together

As many of you will know we had Jack Rainey talk to us at the end of August. Jack is the manager of Everybody Eats which is a pay-as-you-can, 3 course restaurant made from rescued and repourposed food, situated at 60 Dixon Street Te Aro. 

Jack inspired many of us to get out and support them so we have decided to go on 13 October.

The plan is to meet at The Malthouse at 5.30 and then head up to Everybody Eats for dinner about 7pm - time for dining needs to be confirmed.

The Restaurant is open from Sunday to Wednesday each week and after a wee vote at the lastest Club breakfast, Sunday looked like the best day.

This event is open to members, partners, family and friends, so when you register dont forget to add they significant others. 

Once I know numbers I will let Jack know so he is ready for us  

Please can all registrations be in by 10 October 6pm so I can let them know.

Looking forward to this one :)

Perambulators Governor Grey's Track

Sunday 27 October 2024 10am

We will explore a new track (to me) that starts at the bottom of Kelson and ends half way up Hill Road Belmont.

The track can be narrow, a little slippery in places and you will get wet feet.  There are 3 streams to cross and their depth is totally dependent on how much rain we get in the week leading up to the walk.

There is some lovely bush, interesting views and it loops back down to the cars.

Meet at Belmont School Car Park, turn right off SH2 at Kelson and before crossing Kennedy Good Bridge turn immediately right again.

Be there ready to start walking at 10am.  I will decide where we go for coffee depending on numbers attending (and yes I know it is Labour Weekend).  I expect the walk to be about 2 hours long.

Please RSVP no later than 6pm Friday 25 October.

Our next Flashback Friday long lunch is at Bayland Brewery in Petone.

Baylands have a full service bar with 30+ taps so we can sit down and enjoy a few beers, have a feed and even buy some beer to take away.  Dont like beer? They have a big range of gins, premium spirits, wines and non alcohol drinks. 

Their Autum menu is quite varied and has Snacks, Tacos, Little Peeps, Burgers and Smashies on it. Check it out on their website https://baylands.beer/

Come along and bring friends and family. It is a short walk from Petone Station and will be another lovely way to relax and enjoy each others comany.

Please register by 6pm Wednesday 6 November, remember to register your friends or family, so I can let them know numbers attending.

See you there
