2006 annual summer open day and BBQ
- ZL6QH Quartz Hill User Group
- The 2006 annual summer open day and BBQ was held on 15 January. Quartz Hill lived up to its reputation and turned on a brisk and cool northerly wind, so it was not the best day for bathing in the sun! Howver this did not deter 27 people, including four children, who made the pilgramage to the event.

Run No. 1584: Hine Road carpark, Wainuiomata
- Wellington Hash House Harriers
- The sun shone bright and clear in the late afternoon as the hardy and intrepid WHHH'ers headed out to Wainui for the second run of 2006. After the customary passport check at the top of Wainui hill and the fortunately gentle rubber glove investigations from customs meant that most arrived in time and well refreshed.
