There are a few of youse guys over there. Try gbeal, robby or John_Drummond they might know of a few getting around. Check the members link to get to their member page and pm them. Or try clicking on a link button on the members map

Maybe change your thread title to reflect what you are looking for, something like "Any Starparties in the Auckland area?". That might get you a few more hits.

Hi Mushiking, go to the above link and give Dave Moorhouse an email. Often there are observing sessions at Kumeu. Another link to try is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nzastronomers/
