14 new CQ families hit the beach at Burril
Lake
After a welcome barbeque Friday night, things kicked off
Saturday morning when the group headed down to the beach for a
surfing lesson with former world champion Pam Burridge, which was
the highlight of the camp for many!
While some of the children and Mum's and Dad's ripped it up in
the surf, the more hard-core engineers and architects took to
building an amazing (and possibly) the world's largest sand castle,
complete with a huge moat. After a lovely play on the beach,
the gang ventured to Mollymook Beach for some yummy fish and
chips! After a windy morning at Narrawallee
beach, fish & chips have never tasted so
good!
Next on the agenda was a visit from the Nowra Wildlife
Park. Joining the Ranger were a bunch of furry friends for
the group to get to know. The crocodile took quite a fancy
to one of our companions which was funny for the group, not so
for poor Sasha! There was also a goat, a super cute dingo, some
snakes, a slightly overweight blue tongue lizard and a HUGE baby
python.
They were treated to some fabulous ice-cream (the first of
many visits), followed by a serious workout on the bouncy
pillow. Free time was next but the fun didn't stop. The
group hit the lake on paddle boats and canoes. This was
followed by a rather fantastic BBQ dinner put on by some of the
local van owners.
Sunday morning started off with face painting and some lovely
plaster art. It was a wonderful finish to what was a great
weekend.
Thanks to all the hard working volunteers and friends of
Burril Lake and the area who supported another CQ
Camp!
