After missing out last year, we are delighted to announce the return of the Mid-Winter Dinner for 2021. This year a very special event is planned.
Speaker: Dr. Ian Griffin
We’ve snared Dr. Griffin whose aurora hunting exploits have been in the news lately. Ian has marvelous experiences and knowledge to share. This is sure to be an evening full of beautiful images and spectacular tales of chasing the aurora australis.
Venue: The Canterbury Club, 129 Cambridge Terrace, Christchurch
