To properly get into the swing of things, we would like to invite you to Mensa Pretoria’s Annual Year Kick-Off Function. What better way than to ease into the New Year with good food, good company and a lekker kuier?
The details of our Year Kick-Off Function are as follows:
- VENUE: Pretoria National Botanical Gardens Environmental Education Centre; 2 Cussonia Avenue, Brummeria, Pretoria. For a map to the venue, go tohttps://www.google.co.za/maps/place/pretoria+national+botanical+garden/@-25.736371,28.277512,14z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0xdce8ac75d6f61010?sa=X&ei=JXWvVJDFN4blUpaegoAO&ved=0CJoBEPwSMA8
- DATE: Saturday, 24 January 2015
- TIME: 09:00 – 15:00
- CONCEPT: Picnic-styled lunch in the form of a braai. Mensa Pretoria will contribute towards your access fee to the Gardens, as well as the braaied meat and salads. Our very own BraaiBoy will take care of the braai and salads, so you only need to bring your own drinks/refreshments, snacks and whatever else you would like to munch on during the day.
- ENTERTAINMENT: We will have two speakers addressing us and giving a demonstration on Ikebana and Bonsai. For the little ones we have organized a jumping castle, as well as a child minder to help keep an eye on them.
- COSTS: For paid-up Mensa-members, as well as their spouses/partners/significant others and children, the costs will be R50.00 per adult and R20.00 per child under 12 years. Mensa Pretoria will sponsor the remainder of the costs, which will include access to the gardens, food and entertainment. If you would like to bring along more friends, they are welcome to join, but would have to book at the full price of R120.00 per adult and R80.00 per child under 12 years of age. Please note that booking is essential – you will not be able to gain access to the event without your booking having been confirmed.
- WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING ALONG: As this event will take the form of a picnic, you must please bring your own blankets and chairs. We are hoping for nice and sunny weather, so bring along your umbrellas and gazebos, if you have them. Remember to bring your own plates and cutlery, drinks and snacks.
- HOW TO BOOK: Please forward your name and membership number, as well as the name(s) of your +1 and additional guests (if applicable), to events.pta@mensa.org.za . You will receive a confirmation e-mail along with the payment details. Forward proof of payment to the same address once done. Please make sure that your full booking particulars and payment reach us by no later than Wednesday, 21 January 2015, to enable us to confirm the numbers to our suppliers and hosts.
Should you have any queries, you are welcome to contact me, or any one of your trusty committee members.
We are hoping to see all of you there!
Kind regards
Beverley and the Mensa Pretoria Committee
