What's On

Event 

Title:
North Shore Organ Crawl
When:
02 May 2009  1:00 pm
Where:
St John the Baptist Northcote - North Shore City
Category:
Auckland

Description

A fun and informative tour of four (possibly more) churches on the North Shore, taking in some some you probably won't have seen. This will be a family-friendly and relaxed event, meeting the local organists at their own benches, and even the chance to win a prize! This is the premier social event of at least the week, not to be missed. Bring your families and invite some friends (non-members welcome).

We start at St John the Baptist, 47 Church St, Northcote (see venue link) then take in St Joseph's Takapuna and Takapuna Methodist (where an organ renovation project is planned) before ending with afternoon tea at the Reformed Church in Trias Rd, Totara Vale.

Any questions etc, and to help us estimate numbers, contact Brian Ellis, 418 2494 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
