The 2013 HVIS Rose of Tralee

The hunt is on again.

We're looking for a young single woman under the age of 28 who is Irish birth or descent to represent us in the annual NZ Rose of Tralee contest.

So if you know anyone who meets the criteria, suggest she gets in touch with Shirley about entering. And do it before 13 April!

We will be holding our selection evening on Saturday April 20. So put that date in your calendar as well - it's always a great evening.

St Patrick's Day 2013

IMG_3624Once again, St Patrick's Day has come and gone!

The weather was variable, but the company terrific, the food delicious, the music sparkling, and the craic was mighty!

And of course we have a selection of photos.

Drop in and say hello

Why not drop in for a yarn and a drink, or join us for one of our special events? Guests and new members are always welcome.
