Let’s Look Out for Each Other (still)

As always, please do not attend the evening’s presentation if you are feeling unwell. Thanks, Your committee.

Member prize draw

The members’ prize draw takes place at each meeting, but you must be present to win. We also have a raffle draw to be won. Purchase your tickets at the door and be in to win.

Drinking and driving

Members will be aware of the lowering of drink/drive limits from December 2014. If you are unsure, refer to the Land Transport Act 1998. We ask members to be conscious of these limits. For those driving, water and some food are provided. Alternatively, consider designating a driver, using a taxi, Uber, or dial-a-driver to ensure a safe ride home.

The club will stop collecting screwcaps after the June meeting for donation to Kidney Kids NZ.
