We are aiming to arrive at Waimate for 12:30pm.
It is hailed as the largest annual regional event. Visitors swell to 14,000 attracted from all over New Zealand to this free family day out offering all day entertainment, upmarket stalls (over 250) and colourful rovers and entertainers.

We plan to set off on the return trip around 4:30pm with a possible stop off at Ashburton for dinner for those interested.
Note: If you intend to stay overnight you will need to make your own arrangements.
This rally finishes at Stewarts Gully for a picnic adjacent to the Mini Golf area. Bring along your picnic lunch - BBQs are available if you wish to bring meat along.
After lunch we'll be having a round of Mini Golf or two ($6 per person).
For those who can't make the run but would like to meet for lunch, aim to arrive at Stewarts Gully around 12:30pm.
There is always a bit of friendly inter-club rivalry for the annual mini golf trophy. This year we need your help to win the trophy back from the Morris 8 Club!
