NZHS: Annual forum MEGA-MEET!

[Dundee]

I had to back track thru this thread a bit but I know where there is a deersie right by the shitter

[Spanners]

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.

Exactly.
When you've done it a few times, you soon learn that 'turn up or don't' and 'casual' is the way to go, especially when you have to organise a property, supply targets, setup the day before, pay the land owner, $200 worth of food etc just for a LR shoot

Range, F&C and beers? yeah naa... we do that most weekends

Logistically a North and South Island meet is a nightmare.
Both Islands have their own with open invite for the opposite Island members.
North Island - choose a date and a camp site down Clements Mill Road or somewhere similar that`is central. Be good to teach newbies a bit of bush skill then after have a few beers and BBQ. All go for a good time and leave attitudes at home

[Maca49]

What bloody attitude you talking about huh?

Seems to happen at BBQs when someone thinks they are the kungfoo master at 3am

So is this going to be a happening thing?

[Barefoot]

Only if someone volunteers, does what little organising is necessary and pushes it along.
Bags not, I have enough family stuff to sort out at the mo to volunteer for anyone

[Angus_A]

Well if it's going to happen in wellington i'll put my hand up.

Deftly avoided Barefoot.

[Angus_A]

Well if we can put it to a vote of the things people want to do, from there we can organize the necessary facilities for such things.
I'm assuming most of you have liked the nzhs facebook page, it would be very easy to set up a vote from there and once we have collected a list of things that have the most interest it's as simple as booking places and such. How's that sound for a start?
Alternatively, people could post below what they want to do, people like the ones they think are best and from there we can make some decisions.

More reality than avoidance unfortunately
