Kauri Dieback.
Members are reminded to clean all footwear and poles after each tramp to help prevent the spread of Kauri Dieback. Don't just rely on boot cleaning stations to do the job.
Start times are from Kaikati unless otherwise stated.

NOTE: Club members are encouraged to participate in contributing trip/tramp ideas, and we are always looking for new territory. If you can’t attend the planning meetings, at least tell Laraine or Brett if you know of an interesting walk. If you are prepared to lead a walk, even better – our more experienced members would be delighted to help you.
Remember, no trip ideas, no leaders - no tramps!
