On World Environment Day June 5 we held our first Transition event in Kaitaia.
The evening was a great success with about 35 people in attendance to watch
a short film on Peak Oil and to hear Nandor Tanchos give a talk about future scenarios.

Following Nandor, Richard Lee gave a presentation on Transition Towns. The meeting ended with a clear direction of investigating
the TT model further.

On the 25th of June we held our 2nd meeting and had about 25 people show up. (Not a bad effort as it was a very cold and stormy
evening). We watched Robert Newman's very funny "History of Oil" and then did some Open Space work on "where to from here".

By the end of the night a steering group had been formed and the beginnings of a carpool network had been devised.
