“By honouring our past, we find our future”

Auckland Branch president George Andrews says they are “pulling out all the stops” for the 60th commemorative conference.  George and renowned set designer John Parker are combining their skills to prepare a spectacular reminder of what a magnificent story NZCFS has.

The conference opening on Friday evening includes a screening of the classic
