General meetings are usually held on the last Friday of every month. Notice of an upcoming meeting and the proposed speaker presentation will be emailed to you. You can also view the schedule and details on this website. Please note: the venue does change.
The general format of each meeting is an informal gathering of drinks from 6.30pm-7.00pm, Dinner 7.00pm-8.00pm, Guest Speaker 8.00pm-9.00pm, General Branch Meeting 9.00pm-9.30pm. Quality food and wine is served prior to the guest speaker. Members are encouraged to advise the Executive Committee of items they would like to discuss in General Business before the meeting, rather than on the night.
The next Branch General Meeting will be held on Friday 18th September 2026 at The Boatshed in Karapiro. The guest speaker is yet to be confirmed.
Our Annual General Meeting is the last meeting of the year and includes the Executive changeover. The 2026 Branch AGM will be held on Friday 13th November 2026 at The Mount Maunganui Golf Course.
The Branch runs a Day Course usually held in May. Any profit from the Day Course is used to subsidise our General Branch Meetings so that members can enjoy listening to quality speakers at appealing venues. In recent years we have also had a Day Course in November.
The 2026 May Day Course was held at The Hub, Hobbiton, in Matamata on Friday 15th May 2026 The title of the event was Prevention and Preservation - Preventive approaches across multiple areas of dentistry. Click here to view the flyer.
