Wauchope-Bonny Hills has a strong Nippers program, run by a fantastic team of volunteers! (click here for pdf copy of 2009-10 season calendar). The program aims to provide a fun environment where kids can gain confidence in the surf and learn the skills of 'surf awareness'. NOTE: each child MUST have a parent/guardian in attendance on the beach.
On Club Days we run activities like beach sprints, relays, wading, surf swims and board paddling (depending on the age group). On Pointscore Days, placegetters are given points which go towards Club Championship end-of-season awards.
With the construction of the new surfclub this season, we will be operating out of storage containers, so things may be a little 'difficult' but we're confident we'll have a bumper season!!
If you haven’t registered yet, it’s not too late. To speed the process up though, go to the 'MEMBERSHIP' section of our website, download a rego form and bring it with you to the beach next time Nippers is scheduled.
We have been really lucky to have had the ‘Camden Haven Quilters’ make us an amazing quilt to raffle (pictured left). The quilt is called; ‘Lil Nippers’ and it is absolutely beautiful. Tickets are $1 and will be on sale at the beach and at other locations over the next few months.
For the keen kids wanting to compete this season:
Tuesdays 5.30-6.30pm: Fitness/sprint Training @ Lake Cathie Oval (with Buck)
Sunday mornings 7.30-8.30am Board Training @ Rainbow Beach (with Jedd)
Keep bringing your Norco milk tops with you to the beach - yes, we're still collecting them and it is a great fundraiser.
See you all on the beach.
Don't forget that the Bonny Hills Beach Hotel holds meat raffles every Friday night to help us raise money for our club. Spending time at the Hotel is always a pleasure - the playground is great for the younger kids and the food from the Bistro is FABULOUS!!
NB: see details of the 2008/09 end of season presentation.
