Subject: A Royal Invitation  -  Apirana Reserve  -  18th December

​Not often you get one of those, so incredibly important to make the most of it.   Yes, you are cordially invited ( That's boring because it's actually compulsory), to a shortish morning tea / picnic at the Apirana Reserve in Glen Innes on Sunday the 18th December from 10 a.m. to 12 noon.  
 
This is an invite only affair, and is being sent to all those wonderful people who over the past 2 years have given freely of their time to help make the reserve the beautiful place it is today, and we feel we need to celebrate that - however, if you wish to bring someone, wives, husbands, lovers, children, neighbours or friends they would be so welcome.   I'm bound to have left someone off the list so please spread the word.
 
So          :   Sunday 18th December at the Apirana Reserve, Glen Innes.   Diarise it now !
Dress     :   Optional, but if you don't have one you can wear pants.
Bring     :    Something to drink, a small plate of something, and something to sit on.    In other words 3 x somethings.
Weather:   We will not go ahead if the weather is inclement, and will leave it to your good selves to make the call.  
 
Really hope you can make it and would love to see you there.  Gary and Peter could you please let the rest of SJR know.
 
Nga mihi nui
 
Nanda, Roger and Ken"    
 
If you  are able to join in the celebration and the fellowship - please RSVP to Peter B. at your earliest convenience!
