Sir Peter Jackson needs Wairarapa wargamers

Wairarapa wargamers can take part in Sir Peter Jackson's Gallipoli commemoration project. This story was in the Dominion Post this morning http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/65526114/Wargamers-needed-to-help-create-Gallipoli-diorama

The first of the figures arrived in the country a few days ago and Rhys Jones gave us 19 yesterday. In total, we will be getting 40 figures to paint and are making this a club project. If you would like to join in, please call Vince Cholewea on (w) 04 817 8560, (h) 379 6107, (m) 027 344 1073, or email toysoldiers111@gmail.com 

The official blog for the project is to go live tomorrow. Here is a link to the preliminary info on Roly Hermans' blog
