Last Week’s Walks
It was on the cards on Monday that Wednesday was going to be wet and so it was and the walks were cancelled. Some of us sneaked out for a walk in sheltered bush between showers. (The Wainui Hill Challenge will be back on the schedule sometime in the coming months.) The weather had improved a little by Thursday; good enough for 4 Thursday Night Crawlers to complete a walk around the streets of Churton Park without getting wet. Friday the weather still was not playing its part and the walks were cancelled. Again a few walkers had a walk anyway but did not successfully avoid the rain.
Koha
Every week we leave a note about Koha in the newsletter. We have no idea what private sharing arrangements are in place regarding getting rides but we trust that those who don’t regularly bring cars do make up for it in some small way, be it buying a coffee for the driver or by making some small cash donation.
This week's walks - Wednesday 8th June 2022
Every now and then we schedule walks within Churton Park and the nearby suburbs. Well this week is one of these with three local walks. Churton Park is not a flat suburb so all three walks contain some hills but nothing too strenuous.
Briefing: Usual time and place.(New World Carpark at 9:00am)
PP’s: A 4.95km loop walk along paths and footpaths. You can view the walk here.
SS’s: A 6.27km loop walk using paths and footpaths. You can view the walk here.
FF’s: A 8.15km loop walk using paths and footpaths. You can view the walk here.
Parking
Parking is within the New World carpark. Please limit the parking to the south eastern corner of the carpark or on the nearby streets.
Coffee
This will be back at Simmer. We have advised them that we will be coming.
