🌄 Southland Members Cromwell Getaway

📅 Monday 22nd September 2025

📍 Cromwell, Central Otago

Join us for a relaxed and memorable Members getaway in the heart of Central Otago wine country!

As the Branch is aware that many of our members are very busy in the lead up to Christmas and the School Holidays, we’ve decided to host this getaway in lieu of a Christmas function this December.

We’d love to extend the invitation to our Otago and Central Otago Members to join Southland Members for this special event.

The Game Plan:

On Monday 22nd September, make your own way to Cromwell meeting us at Forage Cafe, The Gate, to kick things off over a casual lunch. From there, we’ll head to Scapegrace Distillery for an exclusive behind the scenes tour and tasting experience. That evening, enjoy dinner at Five Stags, followed by relaxed social drinks with fellow members.

👉 For Southland Branch Members, the Branch will cover the cost of the Scapegrace Distillery Tour, along with Dinner and Drinks at Five Stags. All other costs, including travel, lunch, and accommodation, will be at your own expense.

🏨 Accommodation: Glen from The Gate has kindly offered a discounted room rate of $155.00 at Harvest Hotel for the night of 22nd September. To book, contact the hotel directly and use the code ‘South Island HNZ’.

📩 RSVP by Wednesday 13th August to confirm your spot - we’d love to see you there! ❓If you have any questions, please email me – brendan.elliott@hospitality.org.nz
