Hanmer Springs Forest Camp
 
Another “Colour Run” event is planned at the Camp for late January and we are looking for a carload of Rotarians to support it.  Contact Arie if interested.

Christmas Dinner 12 December 
 
Just a reminder that entrees will be served between 6:30 to 7:00 pm then there is some surprise entertainment before our main course. Father Christmas will also be arriving later in the evening. 
 
Don’t forget to bring a $10 gift for Secret Santa and some $ for the special raffle.  Looking forward to seeing you soon for a great finish to the Rotary year.
