Welcome to the New Zealand (formally Wellington), Branch of the OMRS.
The New Zealand Branch has five scheduled meetings a year. These are held at 2pm on the second Sunday of February, April, June, August and October at varying locations in the Wellington region.
As the branch members are geographically dispersed we provide updates via e-mail and also by Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/omrs.wellington/)
So if you are visiting New Zealand, please get in touch as we love the opportunity to meet visiting collectors.
