  Our committee meetings are open to all members, and we encourage anyone interested in helping to organise and support the club to come along.  

  These meetings are where we plan upcoming events, discuss conservation projects, and make decisions that keep the branch running smoothly.

  Members are encouraged to contribute ideas or propose events for the committee to consider. To keep meetings efficient, we ask that any proposals be submitted by email 7 days in advance so they can be circulated to the committee before the meeting.

  For more information or to submit a proposal please email info@southernlakesnzda.org.nz.

  Voting on decisions remains the role of committee members.
  
  When: 2nd Thursday of every month, 7:30pm

  This is one of our annual fundraising opportunities and a great day to get to know and meet fellow club members whilst haveing a great time at the show.
  Often good hunting spots are discussed over the salad and bun preparation!

  We need around 13 helpers on the day 8.30am - 3ish to help prepare, cook and serve venison burgers and sausages.

  If you can't do all day, we also need a few people at 7.30am to collect the buns and salads and drop them at the show and a few to help the tired legs at 3pm pack up so you could swap with someone at lunch time.

  This is a fantastically social day and a lot of fun, so come and help. Kids are welcome.

  Volunteers get free entry to the show

  No experience necessary

  If you, family members, partners or flatmates are able to help - please register either each person individually or add in the last question on the registration form all their details

  Free entry, lunch and a cold beer will be included in the day as a thank you.

  THEME OF THE CLUB NIGHT

  
  

  We’re kicking the year off with something a bit different.

  Think you know your stuff when it comes to hunting, firearms, calibres, New Zealand game animals, or NZ hunting history? This is your chance to put it to the test at our Inigroral Southern Lakes NZDA quiz night.

  The evening will run as a relaxed, social quiz with multiple rounds of general knowledge, all hunting, firearms, and NZ outdoors related.

  We’ll run multiple  rounds, break for pizza & beer, then finish with final few rounds.

  Bring along your hunting buddy or partner.  Don't worry about teams we'll sort you out on the night.

  Prizes are up for grabs, bragging rights are on the line, and it’s a great way to ease back into the year and share your hunting stories from the summer.

  MEAT RAFFLE

  We're also running a meat raffle on the night, so bring your cash and be in to win 1 of 3 butchers packs
