Ever dreamed of going on a girls' weekend getaway to Tekapo? Here's your opportunity! Dear Community is organising an exciting trip for 22 girls to Tekapo, for a weekend filled with relaxation, games, and the chance to make new friendships.

On arrival on Friday, we'll settle into our cozy Airbnb accommodation (Tekapo Ski Club Retreat) before taking a stroll around the town and lake. Dinner will be in town, followed by an evening of bonding over games and icebreaker games.

Prior to arriving, our Dear Community team will place you in cabins based off your interests that you will submit through an interest form! This way we are able to bring together likeminded people.

Saturday kicks off with a relaxed morning and breakfast, setting the tone for the day's adventures. We'll venture to the stunning clay cliffs for a scenic walk, making a pit stop in Twizel for lunch. Returning to Tekapo, there is the opportunity to head to the hot pools before deciding on dinner, either dining out or opting for some delicious takeaways.

Sunday begins with a chill breakfast, followed by a quick cleanup of our accommodations to leave them just as we found them. Before heading home, we'll visit Shepard church for a quick look around.

Don't miss this perfect opportunity to escape the winter blues and create lasting memories with like-minded friends in the breathtaking setting of Tekapo.

Please note: We will help organise car pooling, but it is up to the attendees to contribute towards petrol.

Limited tickets

Please note, once you have purchased your ticket, please message the leader on Instagram with a screenshot of your confirmation. This way the leader knows to expect you!

Ticket sales

Your contribution not only secures your spot at the event but, more importantly, funds our ability to host events across the country. Our mission is to extend the reach of Dear Community across New Zealand, and your ticket purchase plays a crucial role in making this vision a reality. We rely on these ticket sales to pay our charity overheads, such as leader tickets, accounting, salaries, lawyers, subscriptions, designs and so much more. As a non-profit organisation and due to the nature of our events, refunds are not possible. Please note, Dear Community is now officially GST registered which means we have had to apply an additional 15% to every ticket to go towards GST. We appreciate your understanding and support in making our community-building initiatives possible.

Please note, by purchasing a ticket, you are agreeing to Dear Community’s terms and conditions.

Attendance Policy

In order to ensure the smooth running of our events and to show respect for everyone involved, we request that attendees provide a minimum of 24 hours notice if they are unable to attend a ticketed event. Failure to do so may result in restrictions on purchasing tickets for future events organised by Dear Community.

This policy is in place to allow our leaders to offer the space to other community members in a timely manner. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
