21/11/17 Tuesday at Manly

Tuesday at Manly, lots of activity. Yogi’s, swimmers, walkers, dogs and kids.

Beautiful rays of sunshine.

Beautiful start to the day.

Yogi’s limbering up

Our beautiful point waiting for the 7am swimmers

Georgina and Buddy, final treats before the swim.

Ian getting ready for his swim.

Lauren and Andrew, new to B&B and getting into the swim of things.

Hope you enjoyed it!

Temperature is still a “2 Cap” event.

A bit more rubber seems to help the “ice cream headaches”.

Well a Manly B&B Swim is always a great start to the day. Enjoy your Tuesday.

Help  country kids learn how to surf!

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. A working with children check is required
