A night with the Stars - Matariki Night planned for EH Cook Islands

Well we are making progress and Earth Hour Cook Islands is growing by the minute!
From TRE HQ we're now looking at moving the venue to the school grounds in anticipation of interest so far to support the event - 27th March, 8pm - 9pm. A quick meeting with some key folks in the village came up with a name for the event - Matariki Night - Matariki in Polynesian culture is the star cluster commonly known as 'Pleiades' or 'The Seven Sisters'. Two of the major churches in the village so far have confirmed participation in the candlelight vigil. A big meitaki maata to the Catholic Parish and the Revival Fellowship Church for supporting Earth Hour! will post updates as I get feedback from the rest of the other church groups.
