Organiser: Liam Baldwin Jankiewicz
No longer an conservation trip, because I emailed a ranger on the mainland who works with Matiu and there is no permanent ranger on the island yet, so it'll still be a while until we can do volunteer work with DOC (about a few months sadly). However, life is too short to wait a few months so I'm still gonna do the trip in February, but we won't be collaborating with DOC to do conservation work.
Matiu/Somes Island has been closed to the public for almost a year because they were building a new wharf, so we'll be able to check out the new upgrade and explore the island for the whole day! Come along if this interests you (and not busy on the day).
♦The Plan♦
- Meet at Queen's Warf at 11:20 am to wait and catch the 12 ferry (or you can meet us on Matiu/Somes Island if you are catching a ferry from Day's Bay, but please text or email me if you do)
- Explore the island until around 3:30 pm
- Head back to Welly!
Please bring lunch and snacks so you don't go hungry!
