Ohlback is back at the Co-Op Club and it's a good thing she is because

her award winning albums or from other great artist's albums.
ARE YOU A PITTWATER EXPERT
OR ARTIST?
OR DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING
UNIQUE TO SHARE
ABOUT PITTWATER?
We are looking for
enthusiastic, knowledgeable Pittwater residents to
share their passions at our Pittwater Discovery Tour lunchtime
presentation.
Paddlecraft, located at the Bayview Marina, is working
with the National Parks to develop tours that help promote conservation
and awareness of Pittwater through nature based activities like
kayaking and bush walking. We are aiming to offer a full day tour this
season with some options for a lunch time stop that would incorporate a
talk or demonstration from a Pittwater local perhaps highlighting
conservation issues or programs, or local flora and wildlife or even
artwork or local history. Paddlecraft would provide the catering but we
are searching for a place to conduct this activity and people that
would be interested in presenting. So if you are interested in doing a
presentation or if you have a boat house or picnic area that could be
used please contact Helen at info@paddlecraft.com.au
or directly at
Paddlecraft at 9997 8015.
