This year we’re having a special drinks night on March 24th just for people to collect their lamb, at a bar in midtown.  The price of just $25 per leg is a great deal compared to what you’ll pay in the supermarkets!

But: to order your lamb you must be a current financial member of the Kiwi Club! Have you renewed your membership this year? Memberships run for 12 months from the date you pay. Just $25 for individuals, $35 for households, and as well as fresh lamb this will get you a discount to every ticketed event the Kiwi Club runs.

The Amazing New York Race is part scavenger hunt, part obstacle course and All New York! The Race is three hours long and includes four components

(1) Photo Clues
Your teams will be given photographs of various places around the city with clues leading you to a task.

(2) Photo Scavenger Hunt
A list of people, places and New York landmarks that your team needs to find and photograph. The whole team needs to be in all photos!

(3) Road Block
A “Road Block” is a task that only one person on the team can perform. It is usually a physical challenge such as bowling, singing, dancing or sports.

(4) Detour
A “Detour” is a choice between two tasks, each with their own pros and cons. This is usually a mental challenge like Sudoku. Team members must decide which task will get them to the finish line first!

Each component of the race is worth different point values. Teams prioritize tasks in the time allotted. The team with the most points at the finish line wins.

Each player needs a MetroCard (no cabs or cars!) and one member of each team should have a digital camera or camera phone.

You can either enter as part of a team or we can help you find a team.

This is a wine-tasting game with a twist.

Teams of four people taste eight wines, without knowing what wines they are, and answer multi-choice questions about them. It’s easy, anyone who likes drinking wine can play, and there are prizes to be won! This is one of our most popular events, and we’ve had many enquiries from people about when the next game would be.

Your team will need a name: and there’s a prize for the best team name. Past best team names have included “Grape Expectations”, “Pinot Evil” and “Que Syrah Syrah”. Bad puns and theme costumes have been observed to sway the judges — take that as an incentive to be creative!

You can either enter as part of a team or we can help you find a team.

The location:
353 West 56th St (between 8th and 9th Aves),
Saturday April 10th running from 2:30 pm until 6:00 pm.

New Zealand and Sri Lanka will cross a new frontier when they meet each other in three Twenty20 internationals in the USA in May.

The games will take place at Central Broward Regional Park Cricket Stadium in Lauderhill, Florida, which has been approved by the ICC. It is the first time two Full Members will have met in an official match on US soil and it follows the signing of a strategic partnership between the USA Cricket Association (USACA) and New Zealand Cricket (NZC) last year.
