Motu Safari 26th to 29th Jan 2013

Organisation of the Motu School East Cape Safari 2013 is now underway. (Finally)
The Safari begins at Motu Domain on Saturday the 26th of January, weaves in and out of the East Coast region and finishes at the Raukokere Church on Tuesday the 29th of January.
The Safari will tour through the back blocks of the East Coast with incredible views and interesting experiences on the way, traveling forests, farms, rivers and tracks.
The aim is to travel cross country as far as possible and practical, as always the weather has the ultimate say. Following another winter of extremes, there may be some changes to the itinerary as the Safari progresses!
The Safari is designed as a family affair, but will have enough interest to keep the more adventurous entertained.
 Camping areas arranged (BYO tents and comforts).
 Evening meals will be available to purchase. More details following registration.
 Cold running water and toilets available.
 Bathing facilities (rivers and beaches!)
 Find a team of three - four vehicles. If you can’t find a team, enter anyway and we’ll do it for you (a great opportunity to meet new people with a similar interest).
Once again there is great interest in the Safari for 2013. We are offering spaces on a “first in, first served” basis to those that have registered an interest.
Our acceptance of a $50 deposit per vehicle will confirm your place on the Safari. However to maintain this place all other payments must meet the deadlines.
Please Note:
 On conformation of a place the deposit is Non Refundable.
 An incomplete entry form may delay securing a place on the Safari.
 Ensure all team deposits are paid with entry.
 Ensure Participation Contract is signed and returned as requested.
 Ensure Driver/Vehicle Entry Form is complete and returned.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Paul Cornwall.

A real shame this is back to back with Kauri Coast safari. Its about time one of these two great trips was moved by one year so they don't overlap.

Kauri Coast ending the day before Motu begins:-( Long drive between the two.

Did both last time as there was a few days between, both awesome trips.
