Wellington - our 'mother' Club

The first Club to be chartered in New Zealand in 1921.  The largest Club in the District.  A Club who has achieved so much in its time.  About to celebrate it's 90th anniversary next year.  A Club with many projects both big and small.  A meeting with distinguished members, with new members and some who have been with the Club for many years.  A Club meeting at lunch time in the middle of Wellington.   A Club with even further potential to be realised.  The Club working to get German Ambassadorial Scholar Xaver Hausner and Ollie Macndoe from North Cape to the Bluff on a bicycle to raise funds for Polio. Change is being embraced - even the old name badges are being farewelled.  President Colleen has a great team with focus and big goals.  A great visit to a great Club.
