Carterton School–Joint Rally–18-20 November 2016

What a lovely venue, what a well maintained school.  This what greeted us on our arrival for the combined rally being hosted by Wairarapa Caravan Club.

Just some of the vans

Heretaunga had 6 vans in attendance, unfortunately Wellington had a no show and Wairarapa made up the rest.

The weather was turned on for us by Wairarapa,, or so they claimed, the rally was held with balmy sunny days with only light wind. We had games on the large playground i.e. petanque, disc bowls, and a version of lawn bowls. It was a good afternoon sitting in the sun watching the various games as they unfolded. It got so hot some even retreated to the shade of the large trees around the perimeter of the ground.

It is very Serious Deciding The Winner!

The school let us use their hall for our evening entertainment. We had a game of card housey something Heretaunga members had not played before. It was very enjoyable and will be remembered for a future occasion.

Thank you Wairarapa for putting on a very enjoyable rally yet again.

Don’t forget our next rally is the Xmas Rally (9 – 11 December 2016) at Webb’s and Sandra & Don have put out a programme and have also requested that we each contribute a little.  Those at the Rally have made their choices and got their copy of the programme.

Those who were not at the rally should have received an email with the programme attached from the President (Selwyn), if not please give him a ring. Would you also please give Sandra a ring to establish what can be contributed to the Xmas meal.

That’s all for now. Drive safe and see you at the next rally.
