Brief Summary:
Water Activities Days are run by qualified volunteers from the State Water Activities Centre (SWASH) and consist of 3 sessions spent power boating, sailing and canoeing. You don’t need any experience to attend and we do provide a BBQ lunch and all equipment (but see more details for a few things you need to wear). You need to be a registered member of scouts to participate.
Additional Information

The purpose of the Water Activities Day is to provide members with the opportunity to experience canoeing, motor boating and sailing as well as achieving some OAS competencies while having fun. If there is time and weather permits, you may also get to go for a swim. You don’t need to have any experience to attend.

On the day, remembering you will get wet, you will need to bring:

  • any medication you require
  • long hair will need to be tied back for sailing
  • sunscreen
  • hat (please don't bring your favourite hat as sometimes they go overboard)
  • morning tea
  • water bottle
  • wear sunsafe clothing (long sleeves recommended)
  • spray jacket (to keep warm power boating)
  • wear fully enclosed shoes that will get wet (no crocs, thongs etc)
  • dry clothes to travel home in

The Water Activities Centre will provide you with a PFD to wear on the day and a sausage sizzle and can of soft drink for lunch.

Activities are subject to suitable weather conditions. If for any reason the event is cancelled, you will be able to rebook or obtain a refund. If you are unable to attend after registering, you will not be entitled to a refund.
