Yes it sounds like its a little difficult, but not really. You start from where ever you are and travel to the 4 points as specified and when you reach that point you will be dealt a card. Travel to each of the points, being the Palmerston North one last and get your last card there and then attend the party afterwards. If you check of the web site there is more info for you to have a look at.
You can do this all in one go (ye gods, if only you could) but most do it over the three weekends.
Try it, you may like it after all.
I am not able to make that sort of trip myself yet, but will be at the end for the club's participation in the prizegiving etc.
