The Lions Club of Hokitika assisted by our fellow West Coast clubs, are excited to offer you the
opportunity to attend the 2019 District 202E convention in Hokitika, the cool little town.
TOUR INFORMATION
Friday – We would like to offer Lions, partners and families the opportunity to learn more
about the history of our town and to enjoy hearing about the diverse populations that made up the
Coast as well as to give you the opportunity to support a number of restoration projects. You can
do one or more or none – your choice.
1. Historic Town Tour: Three tours on offer – 12:30, 1:30pm and 3:30pm. Meet at the Carnegie
Building on Hamilton Street. Fundraiser for Carnegie Building restoration.
2. Westland Industrial Heritage Park Tour – Meet at Industrial Road at the Airport complex - Three
tours on offer – 12:30, 1:30pm and 3:30pm. Fundraiser for the joint Lions/RSA/Westland Industrial
Park World War One ambulance restoration project.
3. Regent Theatre Art Deco and Cinema History tour. Three tours on offer – 12:30, 1:30pm and
3:30pm. Meet in the Reynolds room of the Regent Theatre – near the registration desk. Fundraiser
for the Regent Theatre.
Saturday Partners tours – we have 2 options for you.
Saturday Option A – the Historic Seddon Trail. This will also start at the Carnegie Building and
your guide will then take you on a tour of the various memorials with specific links to Seddon.
Richard John Seddon (22 June 1845 – 10 June 1906) was a British-born New
Zealand statesman who served as the 15th Premier (Prime Minister) of New Zealand from 1893
until his death in office in 1906. In office for thirteen years, Seddon is to date the country's longest-
serving head of government. Sometimes derisively known as "King Dick" for his autocratic
style, he has nonetheless been lauded as one of the greatest, most influential and widest-known
politicians in New Zealand history. The tour will include information around his gold mining and
publican days. Footwear – ensure you are wearing comfortable shoes. We can also accommodate
the less abled with 2 off road wheelchairs available. Please make us aware of any disabilities with
your registration form so we can assist you. Wet or fine – so bring wet weather gear please.
Minimum numbers 10
Saturday Option B – This is slightly more energetic and expensive as you will need to pay entry
to the tree top walkway (included in the tour price). We have negotiated a 30% reduction in the
entry fee. Leaves from the Regent Theatre. You will be transported to the tree top walkway and
then taken to Hokitika Gorge to discover the new walkway. Wet or fine – so bring wet weather
gear please. Minimum numbers 10
Sunday – Tour of the Stafford Cemetery Restoration project. This tour is free of charge, but
you will need your own transport. We will also need to know numbers in case we need to arrange
a shuttle from the road parking area to the cemetery as parking is very limited. This is a project
that Hokitika Lions started in 2017 and has slowly progressed with restoration of grave sites,
headstones and removal of invasive vegetation. This would be of interest to anyone involved in or
considering a memorial restoration project – or if you’d like to know more about the country’s4
history including a few notes on gravestone symbolism – what the roses, angels and broken
flowers actually mean. If wet, bring an umbrella and decent walking shoes are a must wet or dry.
Saturday dance – A three course meal and late supper is included in the price of the
dance. A cash bar will be available, no BYO please as our special licence does not permit BYO.
Come in costume if you wish. Our theme is ‘Wear your Wild’ - let your imagination run wild.
Wildfoods is Hokitika’s premiere festival. 2019 is our 30th Anniversary and promises to be bigger
and better. Part of the festival is the feral fashion parade – our dinner theme allows you to prepare
your costume in advance! See Wildfoods.co.nz
