Our popular movie night is on again on 23 October at the Lighthouse Cinema Petone.
The movie is 'Maiden'
Maiden is the inspirational story of how Tracy Edwards, a 24-year-old cook on charter boats, became the skipper of the first-ever all-female crew to enter the Whitbread Round the World Race in 1989. Tracy’s dream was opposed on all sides: her male competitors thought an all-women crew would never make it, the chauvinistic yachting press took bets on her failure, and potential sponsors rejected her, fearing they would die at sea and generate bad publicity. But Tracy refused to give up: she re-mortgaged her home and bought a second-hand boat, putting everything on the line to ensure the team made it to the start line. With the support of her remarkable crew, she went on to shock the sport and prove once again that women are the equal of men.
The movie starts at 6PM.
Tickets are $20 and available from Michelle Simpson.

District Conference 15-17 May 2020
As a reminder, here is the proposed structure of volunteers. Most roles are self-explanatory. (Manaakitanga is essentially arranging liaison & care for the conference guests.) It would be HUGELY appreciated if you could let me know if one of these roles may suit you – or if you’d like further info about any.
Thanks
Bruce
