Lots going on

There have been a few changes lately and it'll take a while to get the manual updated. The downloads now let you preview who will be in the downloaded file - assumes "members" and not "membership" though We've launched an app for the members to use. Local Associations can have their own submenus - get in touch about that. On your dashboard you can see how many of your members are using the app. Events have had a lot of work done and you can now decide which fields are on the registration forms and in which order they are shown.

Bus Tour

This replaces our regular monthly meeting on the second Monday of the month because of Waitangi Day. The `Coastal Strip’ tour being planned is to visit some member’s properties that have a `deal or steal with a story’, and residential and development sites. A BBQ is included during the tour. The bus will be leaving from the Tauranga Bowling Club, Cameron Road opposite McLean Street. A cash bar will be available in the club rooms from 5:30pm. The bus will depart at 6:30pm. The tour will end back at the Bowling Club around 9.15pm. please note this is a TAURANGA bowling club opposite the court house, NOT the Tauranga South bowling club. The cost including the BBQ is $15 a head. To register please email reply to me with the number of people coming. The tour is for members only. Payment is to our TPIA account at ANZ 01-0434-0185110-00, and please give your surname in the reference field. We have limited numbers to the capacity of the bus. The bus tour has been a sellout on previous occasions so you may want to register early. We expect it to be a educational and fun night. Note: the tour is still being finalized so changes may occur. We will advise all attendees if this is the case. Also, any members with a property with a story to `show and tell’, between Tauranga Mount Papamoa and Te Puke could you contact us please. It may fit in nicely for the tour.
