Monday 17th December AGM and shared Christmas Picnic to follow

We shall take a gentle amble around the Hawea/Newcastle track including the Butterfields wetlands area where we will find a secluded spot for the AGM. 
We  then return to the cars which have previously been parked under some large shady trees to enjoy our Christmas Picnic.  

Leader;  Jane Baker

At the Wanaka Walkers away week in Glenorchy attended by 36 walkers a poll was taken about whether the WW group would support a proposed subscription of $40.00 per person to buy two GPS/UHF 2 way communication devices. These would enable the Trip Leader to be in touch with the 'tail end charlie' during the walks and give us a reliable way of communicating any difficulties or incidents on the walks. This was supported by a large majority and donations were made immediately by many present.
