Auckland Branch AGM – Tuesday, 6th June 2023
Please join your committee at 10.30am at the Western Springs Garden Community Hall 2, 956 Great North Road, Western Springs for the AGM.
We commence with a catered morning tea and then our speaker, James Duncan the
Tramway Project Coordinator at MOTAT, will give an entertaining speech entitled:
ALWAYS A TRAM IN SIGHT
It’s a story about Auckland’s much loved electric trams, told through a selection of historic images covering the glory years, then their fall from grace. The programme includes a ten-minute video, taking us through the declining years of the trams – these are the years that many of you will remember.
Our Chair, Sandie Gusscott will conduct a short meeting on GSA business and we will have an update from our President Tony Hamilton. The event concludes at 12.30 pm. Please bring your spouse or a guest and register attendees with our Branch Secretary, Andrea, as follows:
