Well what a venue this turned out to be, and it was only second choice. Originally the Regional Rally which was hosted by Wellington Caravan Club was to be held at the Coley Street School, Foxton but because of some unannounced building alterations at this school, it was no longer available. Therefore an alternative needed to be found and the choice of Te Horo School was a good one.
With 17 caravans, 6 motor homes, 1 5th wheeler and 2 tents camping at the school over the long weekend, there were hordes of campers everywhere.

Of those present Heretaunga had a good turnout with six vans present.
Also in attendance was the current President of Caravanning Camping New Zealand Inc (CCNZ) and his wife – Alan and Judith Dale. It was good to see you again.
The entertainment provided was:
FRIDAY
The banners were piped in and we had the opening ceremony.
SATURDAY
CRC Meeting, Card making classes, and Ian Palmer entertained us with songs most of which we all knew the words to.
SUNDAY
Some went to Ruth Pretty's for afternoon tea, in the evening we had wine tasting conducted by Alan and Judith Dale. The wine was donated by Yealands Wines. The three wines tasted were; Pinot Gris, Sav Blanc and a Merlot. There was also a plentiful supply of crackers and cheese to clear the palate. The evening finished with drawing of the raffles. The Wainuiomata Club had their lucky day in that every van won a prize. How Tinny is that.
The programme also included the mandatory items such as Morning Tea and Happy Hour in the afternoon.
After a very good rally we all traipsed home before lunch on Monday morning knowing we had enjoyed ourselves. WELL DONE WELLINGTON.
