Help country kids learn how to surf!

A ‘Working with Children’ check is required.

Each Wednesday in November and Thursdays in December we are looking for volunteers to help Royal Far West’s country kids learn how to surf.  These children are from all over the state, for many of them it is their first time to Sydney and for most of them it will be the first time they have surfed! The age range is 9 years to 17 years. . The times are 4pm – 6pm once a week. If you can volunteer some afternoons in that time (it doesn’t have to be every week) please contact Anna Bowden on 89668597 or email annab@royalfarwest.org.au. ————–

DISTANCE SWIMMING

This lot left their cars at south Curl Curl and arrive by Cole bus.  Swimming to Mark Mallinson’s mum’s – for birthday champagne, eggs n bacon. (3.4 kms – which apparently is not far enough for Midwest Cheryl, who will promptly turn around and swim off south … back towards Freshie!)

West of the wall,  I’ll wait for you
West of the wall,  our dreams can all come true
Though we’re apart … a little while
My heart will wait … until we both can smile
