On Saturday 17th November, the 1st Deer Park Scout Group and 1st Deer Park Guides held a combined day at the Victorian Guide and Scout Sailing Centre at Sandringham. Having earned our sailing charge certificates, some of the Unit were asked to skipper the corsairs on the day and then place our names on the list of coxswains that can be called upon to help out on the open days. Yet another feather in the 1st Deer Park cap.
During the preceding week, the weather was not looking too good, but a fine day of 28 degrees saw us swimming, paddle boarding, canoeing and sailing. Although the sailing was somewhat limited as there was virtually no wind. Never the less, we all had a fantastic day with just about everyone having a go at each activity.
Thanks to Jason B who was the photographer on the day.
1st Balwyn Scouts joined us on the day, so if there are some unfamiliar faces in the photos, they probably belong to the boys and girls from Balwyn.
