Kia ora rawa atu Altrusa Ohariū
- Wellington Women's House
- Altrusa is an international non-profit organization making local communities better through leadership, partnership, and service. Altrusa Ohariu were so kind to donate 20 handmade toiletry bags, each full of donated items for the residents of our whare. These bags were made by Karen, an Altrusa member, and the donated toiletry items were packed at the May Altrusa meeting. Natalie the Club President delivered the bags and we were able to give her a wee tour of our whare and learn abit more about her mahi.

NZTA roads explained
- Eye of the Fish
- Since Scoop posted a top-secret document online, via Peter Dunn, I’ve been trying to make sense of what NZTA and the Mayors of our cities, are up to. In the end, i figured that the only way I could make sense of the discussion was to make my own maps. The lack of coordinated and articulate maps from NZTA is either deliberate, or by accident. If it is an accident, then it’s down to gross incompetence, and if it’s deliberate, then it’s simply a political desire to keep you/us in the dark. You can make your own mind up. If they won’t do it, and show us some maps, then I will. So, here are some maps. Let’s start off with an easy one: where is Transmission Gully?

Frocks on Bikes: Be seen in style!
- Cycling in Wellington
- Dear Frockstars As the Welly weather gets (gradually) better we’re more keen to get out and about on two wheels, rocking our styley scarves, coats, boots and gloves. Alas, it’s still dark enough in the mornings and evenings that we’re pretty damn hard to see on the roads – and Wellington’s drivers drive as if we’re not there even in broad daylight! But high-visibility gear? [eye roll] Do we have to?! Lucky for you, Frocks has the answer: Be Seen In Style!

The Cook Strait Rollercoaster Ride
- The Wellingtonista
- Shot by an ex-workmate of Wellingtonistas Tom and Noizy, presumably spread by the magic of email, and now shared to the world thanks to someone in the UK, here's some footage to rival that of our previous YouTube hit 'Classic Landings at Wellington Airport'. This time it's some serious weather doing its thing in Cook Strait, with the captain of the ferry Suilven deciding no gigantic swells were going to stop him from getting his freight and passengers to the South Island.

Orienteering Wellington - Afterwork series and AGM
- Wellington Orienteering Association
- Orienteering Wellington - Afterwork series and AGM Spring sees us back in full swing—read on to find out more! View this email in your browser Tis the season for Afterwork Orienteering and our Christmas AGM Mihi nui kia <> Our start to spring has been a bit quiet locally but now we have plenty of news for November! Next weekend is the 37th Anniversary of the Wayne Cretney Classic, organised by Bryan Teahan. It’ll be a true endurance event using new maps around Mornington and Berhampore. Red medium, Orange, Yellow and White courses on-the-day courses are still available. We also have a club events in the pipeline, including afterwork events at Onslow College on Wednesday 15 November and Te Herenga Waka VUW campus on Wednesday 29 November. Orienteering Hutt Valley will also offer some afterwork events before Christmas and the annual Big Trig rogaine on Sunday 10 December. See you at the next event! Paul Teesdale-Spittle President Club achievements at Nationals Orienteering Wellington can celebrate a number of achievements from the NZ National Orienteering Championships held in Hawke’s Bay recently. Many members placed well, especially some of our veteran runners. Here are some of the standout achievements – which in no way overshadow the satisfaction and personal success all runners should feel irrespective of where they finished. In the sprint, Lauren Wills came first in W40A, as did Gillian Ingham in W65A, Neil Kane in M75A and Don Locke in M85A. Mattias Bengtsson took second place in M10, as did Lisa Bengtsson in W40A and Dorothy Kane in W75A. In the middle distance, Yvette Baker took first in W50A. So too did Gillian Ingham in W65A, Neil Kane in M75A and Don Locke in M85A. David King took second place in M60A, as did Kate Fortune in W75A. The long event on the Tuna Nui map was a standout whereby seven members came first in their grades: Katie Cory-Wright in W21A, Lisa Bengtsson in W21AS, Sarah O’Sullivan in W35A, William Power in M40AS, and David Middleton in M55AS. Gillian Ingham and Neil Kane took triple crowns, coming first in their classes too. Lara Molloy was hot on Katie’s heels coming second in W21A, as did Lauren Wills in W40A, Yvette Baker in W50A, and David King in M60A. We have a lot to be proud of from this year’s Nationals, and can look forward to taking spirit of fun and success to Rotorua next year. Snaps from National 2023 of club competitors and our relay team. Photos courtesy of Helen Howell. Annual General Meeting Our AGM will be on Saturday 9 December, so mark this in your calendar now. We’ll confirm the venue and details soon but our gathering tends to include plenty of time for orienteering antics, food and socialising as well as business. The Fortune Cup for service and Endeavour Cup for performance are also awarded. On the topic of business, club officers must be elected. I, Lachlan, and Gerald are all happy to stand again as president, secretary and treasurer respectively but equally happy to step aside if you’d like to have a go. Similarly, email Lachlan if you’re interested in serving on the committee in a different way. Look fit with new kit! Finally, our new gear has arrived and orders are ready to be distributed! There are several options to collect your gear: Collect from Anna Varnham at home Collect from Anna at Samuel Marsden Collegiate, 8am – 5.30pm Collect at one of our not-to-be-missed coming events. Email Anna at to let her know your preference. It’d be great if you could arrange collection at your earliest possible convenience. Extra stock is available across a range of sizes – so if what you ordered isn't perfect, there may be an option to swap. Note it seems the supplier has not included the mesh panel on the white shirts—and we’re unlikely to send them back! Sarah O’Sullivan to lead ONZ Congratulations to Sarah O’Sullivan, who has been elected Chair of Orienteering New Zealand from December! Sarah was our own club president immediately before Paul and has been active in the club for many years. Sarah runs elite grades at major events. We’re really excited for Sarah and know she’ll lead ONZ extremely capably. She is the second woman to hold the position of chair after our own Jane Harding. Here she is modelling the new club kit! Technical tip: Visualise the circle When you look to the next control, how well can you picture exactly what your approach will look like? To know precisely where the control will be placed you need to convert the map into an image in your mind of how the terrain in the control circle will look. Watch the video about developing a clear mental image of stepping stones and handrails, how they relate to each other and how you will flow through them. You should flow though control sites just as you flow through the rest of the leg. Content provided by Orienteering New Zealand Fitter, faster, better together! Magnus Bengtsson and Lizzie Ingham are continuing with group interval and sprint training at 6pm Tuesdays. You’ll get to build fitness running along the flat, up hills, or maybe a mix—and doing intervals as a group is much more motivating than doing intervals on your own. This training is primarily for Orienteering Wellington members but anyone is welcome to attend for free. The location is movable, so email Magnus if you’re keen. Looking ahead: Major events in 2024 Sprint clinic Orienteering Wellington will hold a Sprint Clinic on Saturday 20 to Monday 22 January (Wellington Anniversary Weekend) on local sprint maps. This is deliberately held ahead of the Oceania Sprint Championships but will be useful for any runner looking to develop their sprint skills. Find out more about the Sprint Clinic Oceania Sprint Champs 2024 Oceania is a trans-Tasman sprint championship, next year hosted by Orienteering Taranaki with their Lonely Mountain Sprints (26-29 January) and Auckland Orienteers with the Auckland Triple Crown (3-6 February). Lonely Mountain includes six sprints as well as a knock-out championship and relay championship, while the Triple Crown has three sprint races and Oceania Sprint Championship. Enter or find out more about Oceania 2024 NZ National Orienteering Champs in Rotorua Nationals 2024 will be held by Orienteering Bay of Plenty in Rotorua and Taupō over Easter (Friday 29 March – Monday 1 April). The maps are shaping up to be fantastic and this is a great part of the country fora family holiday if you need to coax others who aren’t so fussed on orienteering! Find out more about Nationals 2024 NZ Secondary Schools Orienteering Championships Next year it’s us—we’re hosting NZSSOC 2024 in the July school holidays!

Graded RR at Te Horo
- Wellington Veterans Cycling Club
- The first of the graded Road Races is this weekend at Te Horo. Turn left into Te Horo Beach Road (right if you are coming from the north) and park by the boat sales yard. The start is just down the road but the registration will be in the vicinity of the boat yard.For graded road races you race in your own grade so for each grade there is a separate race. Lots of fun on a reasonably flat circuit, I just hope the wind dies down a bit between now and then. If you don’t wish to ride or you know of someone who can marshall on a corner we are a couple of marshalls short at present. Please flick an email to Dave Grimmond or register to volunteer on line so we can run a safe event. Enter on line now.Coffee after the race will be at the Red Café in Te Horo, bring your eftpos card or some cash along. My winter conditioning can vouch for the scones they make at the Red Café!!!Have you paid your subs yet; great to see some more paid up on the weekend, still more to come I am sure.Can you help with organising the two day tour; we need a couple of volunteers to help out. Please let me know by return email because we need to get this underway very soon if the event is to be a success.Safe riding to you all.RegardsDouglas Mabey

A City for People
- Decades of inaction have meant house prices are out of control, while old rental properties rot out from underneath us. A whole generation of people are at risk of being forced out from the central city into new suburbs sprawling north, spending hours every day in traffic jams. We believe the Spatial Plan will allow Wellington to plan for the future so that new generations of Wellingtonians can share the city we love, and have a chance to live in a home that is affordable, accessible, healthy and warm.
