Early start to Term 2

Hi all,

Scouts was meant to start up for Term 2 next Thursday, but we have a special opportunity for Tuesday that we just shouldn't pass up.

We have been invited aboard the NIWA research vessel Tangaroa for a tour and chat with the crew.

Tangaroa will be moored at Burnham Wharf at Miramar, and they will be expecting us at 7pm.  Parking on the wharf may be somewhat limited, so carpooling would be a great help.  I can take two extra kids.

Please meet at the den (in uniform) no later than 6:15pm on Tuesday 03 May unless you are proceeding directly to the wharf.  Tangaroa is the big blue ship, pretty hard to miss. 

See this map for directions to the wharf: http://maps.google.co.nz/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=burnham+wharf,+wellington&aq=&sll=-41.244772,172.617188&sspn=49.227587,59.501953&ie=UTF8&hq=burnham+wharf,&hnear=Wellington&ll=-41.299154,174.805956&spn=0.048426,0.084715&z=14

The wharf is at location A on the map, not B.  Silly Google.

So to recap, no Scouts on Thursday, but field trip on Tuesday, leave den at 6:15, back to den by 9pm. 
The following week (10 May) will be Thursday as normal.

Cheers,
Randall
