GROUP TRAVEL
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The Group Travel Movement, sponsored by the Physical Welfare and Recreation Branch of the Department of Internal Affairs in conjunction with the District Physical Welfare Committee, enters upon its second year this winter. Group Travel, while mainly a cheap offseason holiday development, has not been dormant during the summer# A party of sixty Southlanders travelled up to the Exhibition where many new contacts were made including one with the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Hon. W. E. Parry, who as the head of the Department was a fitting host to the party during their visit to Parliament Buildings. The Group Travel Movement aims at making all sorts of recreative and educational contacts for its parties. Members of kindred bodies, when visitijig other towns n can visit one another under its auspices, and visits may be made to factories, sheep-runs, gold-mines, and other places not ordinarily seen by tourists, and a new content thereby given to travel.
