A group of 10 Cobar Girl Guides headed to Sydney over the weekend to join other Girl Guides from around the state to experience canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding and sailing. The girls completed a variety of training including an exercise that required them to capsize their canoe and swim to shore. The girls and their leaders travelled to Sydney for the course by a bus funded by Cobar Shire Council under the NSW Government’s Stronger Communities Fund (Round 3). The Guides also received funding from Peak Gold Mines to help out with their excursion costs and to purchase eight inflatable kayaks (and pumps) along with life jackets which will enable the girls to further develop their water skills. ▪ Photo contributed
