Hello folks...
Received this today, is there anyone able to help with resources around there? It seems they do have some stream ability, but not the connection - around Newtown Park, Wellington.
Cheers

I am from NZRUN, New Zealand's Leading athletics website.
I am writing to seek any help or information you may be able to provide on the following situation.
Long story short, as you are aware the Christchurch earthquake has been devastating. On Saturday a high profile athletics meeting featuring Silver Olympic medalist, Nick Willis along with many other high profile international athletes was meant to take place.
Because of the earthquake this has had to be postponed indefinitely. Willis, along with members of the Wellington Athletics community have turned around at short notice to organize a fundraising event (Track meet 4 Christchurch) to be held in Wellington at Newtown Park, featuring these high profile athletes. Willis will be receiving his Silver medal from the 2008 Beijing Olympics which is being officially presented by the NZOC. All proceeds will be going towards the Salvation Army Christchurch EQ appeal.
We at NZRUN have donated our services to provide meet coverage in the form of videoing the meet and driving online donations from our local & international viewers.
We have Live Streaming capability, but are having trouble coming up with a solution to broadcast a video stream from Newtown Park, Wellington.
The event takes place 5.00-6.30pm Saturday 26th Feb.
As far as I am aware, there is no dedicated connection at the track and I am asking if yourself or Geekzone have any recommendations on what we can do to make this live stream happen, or if you are able to pass this on to anyone in the Telecommunications industry that could possibly help us out. We understand this is very short notice but any help would be much appreciated.
For more information about the event, please visit:

I'm in Auckland, but happy to help out with router or server clue if you can't get time from your local engineers, or if they're better utilised elsewhere.
Thanks for that offer Nathan. That was the sort of thing I had in mind. Given that local engineers will be worrying about things like their families, maybe those of us in other locations can help take some of the load.
Keep the offers coming.
