Over a Cuppa – October 2015

Remember, club now starts 30 minutes earlier with doors opening at 7pm and club talks starting at 7:30pm.

Before I tell you about all the amazing things we have coming up, I wanted to invite you to join the exclusive WTMC social crew. I’m looking for 10 keen people who can occasionally be at Wednesday club right on 7pm to help put out chairs, get tea ready and set up the laptop. The reward is getting to choose the night’s biscuits and have exclusive inside access to the inner workings of WTMC social life. Email me now at .

November and December are pretty special months for our social nights with a lot of activities on the docket:

4 Nov 2015 – WTMC Hottest Home Baker Competition (bring your best baking and complete for international prizes or taste and vote for the people’s choice). More details on the WTMC forum.

11 Nov 2015 – Families and Kids getting tramping WTMC style – Our youngest members have spent weeks preparing a special presentation about their adventures. To show them how awesome tramping is, I expect to see a full house – plus the kids might have a few surprises for you. Read about family trips in our newsletter.

18 Nov 2015 – Annual WTMC Quiz Night – What could be better than Tramping Trivia! First Place prizes sponsored by Wellington Bivouac

25 Nov 2015 – No Ordinary Sheila – The director and producer of the work-in-progress film, No Ordinary Sheila, will be sharing an excerpt of the film and talking about the life of Sheila Natusch, who, among other great feats, wrote NZ’s first book on foraging and cycled in 1958 with her partner the length of the South Island. All door money from this night will be donated to the production of the film.

2 Dec 2015 – Henry Fisher & Frances Boyson – So you want to climb? Why you should do the Wellington section of the NZ Alpine Club’s (NZAC) Summer Rock course – the mighty benefits!
