Billabong Guides Activities
Billabong Guides do all sorts of activities equipping them with knowledge and skills for life with lots of crafts and imaginative games as they work in their patrols both indoors and outdoors. We also have visits from various community members such as the Lions Club, WIRES, the local firefighters and more. Outings in the local area are very popular with visits to places such as bowling, rock-climbing and tennis. Billabong Guides are also active community members with participation in local activities such as Australia Day festivals, ANZAC day parades, Clean up Australia Day and the Orange Blossom festival. Spending time together is greatly enjoyed by all with sleepovers and weekend camps.
