Movie & Buffet Dinner Night; VIP Private Screening of "500 DAYS IN THE WILD"
Sun, Jul 5, 5:15 AMSocial Event - Movie & Dinner Night; We have organised a VIP Private Screening of the award winning movie; "500 DAYS IN THE WILD". The 2-hour documentary weaves together adventure, personal reflections, stunning wildlife, and human connection on the rigorous and beautiful TCT Trail, stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast, as well as the Arctic Ocean. 500 Days in the Wild dives deeply into both the physical and emotional travails of tackling an almost impossible adventure. 500 Days surprises with cinematic action, intimate experiences, and visual poetry. 500 Days In The Wild follows the epic 6-year journey of filmmaker Dianne Whelan as she sets out to reconnect with nature and become the first person to travel the world's longest trail. The 24,000 km Trans Canada Trail stretches across the continent of North America, connecting the Atlantic, Arctic and Pacific oceans. It is the longest trail in the world. For six years filmmaker Dianne Whelan traveled the entirety of the land and water trails, the only person to ever accomplish this journey. 500 Days (which is 12,000 hours) in the Wild recounts Dianne's journey by bike, canoe, skis, snowshoes and on foot and her cross-cultural visits with those who live close to the land. This feature doc culled from 800 hours of footage is an intricate weave of adventure film, personal reflection and stunning captures of wildlife and landscapes. Using humour, adventure, beautiful cinematography and a great soundtrack (including songs from Joni Mitchell, First Aid Kit, Xavier Rudd, and The Tragically Hip), 500 Days in the Wild will entertain audiences and inspire hope for the future. She started out alone, disillusioned with state of the world, to look for different ways of caring for the land and for each other. She ended the journey a bit wiser, more hopeful, in love and with a passion to share this story with you. This is an unforgettable journey and an unforgettable film.

Sat, Jun 6, 11:30 PM***On King's Bday Saturday, [we are hiking Macmasters Beach to Killcare Beach](https://www.meetup.com/hikewalktothebar/events/314873258/)... so why not lay down more hike-prints in the Central Coast on Sunday? Woy Woy to Patonga Beach is a cracker of a hike...*** **THE HIKE. Woy Woy to Patonga Beach & The Boathouse (16kms).** This is such a lovely coastal / beach hike... **Woy Woy. Blackwall. Ettalong Beach. Umina Beach. Pearl Beach...** then we climb to one of my favourite spots: **Pearl Caves down to Patonga Beach will provide some of the best views on the Central Coast.** Stunnnnnning ocean views all the way to Palm Beach. The climb down is steep, and the food / drinks at **The Boathouse Patonga** are special. **THE BOATHOUSE PATONGA.** I won't write about it. If you've never been, it's a "WOOOOOW" type bar / restaurant... there's nothing in Patonga but a gorgeous beach, a few homes, and The Boathouse. Great food... reasonably priced, and of course delicious post-hike drinks. **[If keen to come, after you hite "Attend" on Meetup jump in the whatsapp chat here!!!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/KcsQg5fK9TEIyFhAOrGFy7)** ***AN AD FROM THE MARKETING DEPARTMENT.*** ***JUNE!!! Here's what's on in We Hike... to the Bar:*** *Monday, 1 June - [VIVID WALK, DRONE SHOW, 50% OFF WINGS, DRINKS!](https://www.meetup.com/hikewalktothebar/events/314952719/)* *Saturday, 6 June – [Macmasters Beach to Killcare, Hardy’s Hideaway. My favourite hike!!!](https://www.meetup.com/hikewalktothebar/events/314873258/)* *Sunday, 7 June – [Woy Woy to Patonga Beach / The Boathouse](https://www.meetup.com/hikewalktothebar/events/314873444/) – such a pretty session.* *Saturday, 13 June – [Royal National Park Figure 8 Pool!](https://www.meetup.com/hikewalktothebar/events/314972877/) This is a 10/10 hike.* *Sunday, 14 June – [We Hike… to the Australia v Turkey World Cup Opener!!!](https://www.meetup.com/hikewalktothebar/events/314175185/)* *Saturday, 20 June – [MJ’s Bday & Winter Pub Crawl!](https://www.meetup.com/hikewalktothebar/events/314958235/)* **THE LOGISTICS.** **Our start / meeting at Woy Woy is easy.** We meet, chat, quick piss break, and then we hike. **When we finish you have a few options.** Last time, Boat House Patonga drove many in their courtesy van back to Woy Woy Station. There's also a bus from Patonga to Woy Woy Station. There's also Uber / taxi to Woy Woy Station. Last (and best) is taking the Boat House Ferry ($15) to Palm Beach... it's unforgettable. Jump on the 199 bus from there, and you're on your way to Sydney (a stop at **The Newport** for a drink is 110% worth it - gotta say this is the best bar in Sydney). **Saturday... Macmasters to Killcare.** **Sunday... Woy Woy to Patonga.** I fuckin' love this! See you for a great weekend.
