NZHS: Annual forum MEGA-MEET!

[Philipo]

If ya just want to have a meet'n'greet it's best to just KISS it, Just make it a BYO BBQ & BYO piss & BYO chair & swag, make a date 4 weeks in advance, somewhere central ( with a toilet would be handy lol ) and if you turn up you turn up. Best to do in warmer weather


Ive tried organising shoots & get togethers in the past & while you will get 20 people that say they'll be there you will be lucky if half turn up.


The old FnH BBQ's we used to have were great simple events

sooooo seen this is still in the design sorta stages, why not make it a annual thing? different region each year, someone from each year organises activities, but forum members help out with all the things needed for activities if required, if you had it near a town etc, backpackers or a holiday park is pretty cheap for accomodation, plus there are always halls etc for food prep and shin digs, i feel doing it by regions will be good in the end as then at least once people wont have to travel or could have people camp out at there place, top and tail or sleep with the dog, as for time of year, you want it when its nice and fine, maybe labor weekend? but then also run to close to xmas?? my 15cents so far

Hangis are pretty good. Bbq would probably be easier as theres less prep.

Other National Organisations I've been involved with have run national competitions years about in NI/SI usually at a location about the mid point of both islands - Taupo / Matamata in the NI and Omarama in the SI ... that seems to work ok ...

I'm keen, dates dependant but I agree with Dougie that more than a pissup needs to be arranged. Long/medium/close range gong shoot, deer stalk etc. I don't want to spend money on flights just for a pissup, but keen as if there's more involved.

Mate when are you gonna get the time off to come down and shoot some gongs?

I reckon camping out on a farm where we can do a small target comp some long range gongs and close to a place for a hunt somewhere. A bit of everything. Close to the sea is a good, a bit of fishing will be nice

If we go now we could all sneak into Geezejoneseys place while he is away.

You know how the PM button works, hit me up and you can catch up with me and my other 11 friends and we'll get the ball rolling..

[Maca49]

You only got 11 friends! You missed me?

Seriously dude, I think I'll go on another forum-holiday after that post. Honestly getting sick of your attitude on here. It boggles me that you are a mod. All I've ever done is offer suggestions and you always shut me down.

Good luck lads for the get together, I think it's a great idea and all I ever suggested was in the best interest of a great shindig that the most people would come to and get the most fun out of.

I thought you were stomping off because someone on the internet didnt agree with you again

Haha, I just took a mini holiday and actually got out to do some "shooting and rooting", feeling better now and what's all this sarcasm about? I am much better than some people when it comes to being in a huff and fighting internet trolls!
