Benedicts will be open from 8:30am, serving coffee and breakfast.
How does it work?

Rally is anticipated to take 1.5 to 2 hours.
Great prizes!
Once you've found the Secret Destination, enjoy some refreshments at our sausage sizzle and bake sale (cash only, no eftpos). After all or most participants have arrived, prizes will be awarded to winners in several categories, not just the first to reach the final destination.
Maungaraki Richmond group are aiming to send 20 scouts to Jamboree in December, which means a lot of fundraising. So challenge your friends to an amusing race and come along on Sunday 7 April for a great time, great food, fun prizes… and to help our scouts go to Jamboree.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
