WE had a really good roll up for the first carnival of the season at South West Rocks on Sunday - despite the torrential rain leading up to it. All the results will be published next week.
The Mid North Coast Branch Team was selected and Wauchope-Bonny Hills have 7 competitors chosen to compete which is a very impressive representation.
The team members are; U/12's Hannah Forward & Troy Wilkinson (water), U/13's Brock Longworth (beach), U/15's Taryn Hilan (beach) & Craig Graham (water) U/17's Sami Dimond & Jedd Goggin (water). Congratulations to all of you - fantastic effort.
Doorknock
We are having a major fundraiser the weekend of the November 21st/22nd- which will coincide with 'Lifesaver Day.' Denise is organising the Door Knock, so please make yourselves available to assist over this weekend (particularly all the competitive members.)
