Welcome..
NATIONAL PRESIDENTS WELCOME
Looking across the ripple-less water, to views of mountain
ranges, sampling New Zealand’s finest wines and local food;
it’s simply quite remarkable!
Please join me at this magnificent location of Queenstown,
NZ for our annual muster of Master Electricians hosted by
the Southland branch of Master Electricians.
Looking over the programme, delegates and their families
Mike Barr, are going to be treated to good old South Island hospitality
National President in this world class location that tourists from all over the
world are wanting to experience.
This our 60th conference, while ensuring you’re kept very
busy with classic Queenstown adventure, will also set the
bar on business sessions ensuring that there are topics for
everyone to get value from – to grow your business.
Networking opportunities with like-minded members will
also be a focus – I’m sure there will be a lot of opportunity
to sample some of the world class beer, wine and foods on
offer over discussions important to you and your business.
If you have never been to a Master Electricians conference
and are not sure what it’s about, I assure you Queenstown
and the Southland branch will not disappoint.
The time away from work will add value to your business
for years to come.
I look forward to welcoming you all.

BRANCH PRESIDENTS WELCOME
It is with great pleasure that I have the opportunity to
invite you to attend the 60th Master Electricians Annual
Conference to be held at the Rydges Hotel in Queenstown.
The spectacular views of Lake Wakatipu and the scenic
Remarkables Mountains stand as icons of Queenstown,
known internationally as the adventure capital of the world
and laying claim to many opportunities and activities that
have dubbed Queenstown as the tourist mecca that it is.
Warren Keen, Your 2018 Master Electricians Conference will be a
Branch President conference like no other, offering you spectacular views,
the Lady of the Lake, the iconic Walter Peak Station
and that it is only on day one. The balanced programme
offering business, educational and social activities will be
enhanced by the opportunity to explore Queenstown and
the surrounding panorama.
We are offering a diverse program with exciting electives,
an exclusive Partners Breakfast, along with opportunities
for children to be involved. This is a conference not to be
missed, and the benefits that you will gain along with the
opportunity for networking with fellow contractors will
assist you through a further year of trading in this, our
industry. I would also invite and encourage you to take the
chance to stay on following the Conference and to explore
the delights of the Southern region.
I commend to you the 2018 60th Master Electricians
Conference in Queenstown, and I look forward to seeing
you at the Rydges Hotel in October.
Warren Keen, Southland Branch President
