Just a friendly reminder to those of you (like me) who missed it in the bulletin, that OTMC memberships are due to be renewed for the 2021-22 financial year. Check out the website for details.

Due to the current restrictions, we are returning to virtual Zoom Meetings until such time our region is returned to Alert Level 1.

This week's meeting will be a talk from Peter McKellar on some trips he's been on. 

Next week will be a talk about Leaning Lodge Hut from the Peter and John.

It appears likely that we won't be back at L1 over the next couple of weeks, so we are looking for suggestions or volunteers for online presentations for our weekly Zoom meetings - if you have something that you can present over the next couple of weeks then please email as at otmcnz@gmail.com

The Zoom details are (this is a recurring meeting, so the same details apply each week)

Sunday 19 September:
Bus - Sawyers Bay - Slopes of Cargill - Normanby - Bus (M)
Leader: Tracy Pettinger (027 348 7585)

 
Meet at the bus hub at 9.20am and we will catch the bus number 14 to Port Chalmers that leaves the Bus Hub B at 9.31am. Bring your face mask and the bus fare is $2, but if you have a bee card for payment then that is ideal as it is contactless. We will walk up through the suburb at Sawyers Bay then via Grahams Bush to the Organ Pipes and Buttars Peak for lunch before cutting past Mt Cargill and down to Bethunes Gully.  We'll then walk to Normanby and catch the bus back. The 14.5kms takes a leisurely 5 hours walking time.   

 

Further Ahead

We have gaps on 10, 24 & 31 October Please get in touch with Mark Stephenson if you can fill one of these dates. (markstephenson835@gmail.com)
