Come join us for a day in Warkworth and Leigh-  learning about how we can get closer to the stars and enjoying some craft brew!

We are very fortunate to have a private tour conducted by former Downtown Rotarian Sergei Gulyaev, Founder and Director of AUT's Institute for Radio Astronomy and Space Research. Under his direction, the institute has built an obseratory at Warkworth equipped wih a 12-metre and 30-metre radio telescope. 

Interested parties, please meet at the Radio Telescope (121 Satellite Station Road, Warkworth 0983) at 10:00am on Saturday 24th November. (https://irasr.aut.ac.nz/radio-telescopes) This is a free tour.

The tour will be around 1hour-1hr 20min followed by lunch at Sawmill Brewery in Leigh.

Sawmill Brewery offers an optional brewery tour ($25 per person) http://www.sawmillbrewery.co.nz/ As we have more than 12 people registered for our group lunch, Sawmill Brewery requires us to have a set lunch sharing menu that consist of 6 different shared items for $40 per person. Please advise Lucy if you have any dietary requirements or if you will not be joining for lunch.
