This year due to the very dry weather the lake was much lower than usual.
This wasn't a problem it just meant that we saw Lake Taharoa in a different light. What didn't change was the amazing clear water that the Scouts, Venturers and Leaders loved being in, on and under.
Many of our Scouts and Venturers learned some new skills, with some having their first sail in a Sunburst. On land they put other skills into use winning the pioneering competition. They built a stretcher to carry a Scout and as a Group we came third in the Camping competition.
As well as competing and being active Ōwairaka Sea Scouts and Venturers also really enjoy just being around each other and having fun. From the slightly gruesome story time to the Venturers taking it easy while rowing the boat back to the slipway at the end of camp, to taking their fake Pacific Island holiday snaps.
We had a great weekend and see you there again next year. Thank you to the Regatta organisers!
