Hi everyone. After some further discussion and refinement this is what we propose for Christmas:Plan A: On Saturday 7th December (not 8th which is a Sunday) we will have a Christmas event on Mana Island, departing the Domain at 10am (so arriving at 9:30) getting to Mana around 10:40, keen ones can do stuff prior to lunch around 12:00, then there might be two groups that head back at different time slots, but we can work that out on the day. Return could therefore either be 1:30 or 2:30 with the latest return to the Domain being 3pm. I'll put this item in as an event
We've deliberately made this event later so that it's easier for folks to drive down from Palmerston North, and also because it is a lunch event.
Both Robby Benson-Cooper and Lucas Waterworth have volunteered to take doubles across so if you want to take advantage of this for less skilled kayaking partners please put your bookings in with them now.
By the way the lawn on Mana is really nice, very sheltered and pleasant and there are also good walks. Mana is of course a sanctuary so you must check your boats for any wildlife especially ants that may have gotten in past the hatches.
Plan B: Same as Plan A but if weather means that Plan A cannot be executed the event is postponed to Saturday 14 December
Plan C: If weather nukes both Plans A and B, we'll go to Onehunga Bay in Whitireia Park by driving there. Note however that this can get crowded- which is why it is Plan C
