Time for a social meet I think. Please vote on a date and venue above, and the one with the most votes will be what happens!
The idea is to have a BBQ at a beach, meeting in the early afternoon until it's done :) The choices are on the date and location. I've put up three weekends before Christmas and one after. The locations are either Long Bay Beach where we can book a BBQ spot (hopefully), or Big Bay out Waiuku way http://www.smaps.co.nz/nz/franklin/awhitu/big+bay+road/284/ where we'll have to take a couple of BBQ's with us.
It will be BYO, and families welcome :)

I would suggest Dec 6th the best date simply because it is before the school holidays. As to location, it'd be nice to go for a bit of a drive somewhere and Big Bay will be much more secluded, so it gets my vote

We have our work Christmas do on the 6th, so it is out for me. I agree with Brad on Big Bay.
Oh cool, this will be my last meet before I head back to the Republic for a few weeks :)

With so many Christmas parties and things happening at this time of the year, why don't we do it in January?

December 6th is best for me I think, and Big Bay looks like a nice drive (but not fussed on venue) :)
Im not fussed on the date, I agree with big bay, it will be a nicer drive out there

Mmm, can only picture 1 CVR-4 member hovering around his makeshift BBQ in Blackpool... IN DECEMBER! (that's you Kyle ;) )
but seriously...this thread needs to be discussed and confirmed as there seems to be a fairly low response to it.
May I suggest Wenderholm as a possible venue as well? It has a beach, ample grassed areas, plus a boat launching / retrieval station.. (jetty?) The grassed areas are also shielded by trees negating the wind factor.
I'll do the dishes :p
BTTT - getting close now, is there confirmation on what's going on?

Early January was my pick. Christmas is always so busy.

Since there hasn't been an overwhelming flow of interest (and I realised that Kenny and I are away on the 13th), it will be left until early next year now... unless there's interesting to go ahead for the 6th?
