Surf club promotes Duke of Edinburgh award
Umina Surf Life Saving Club is promoting its support of the Duke of Edinburgh Award.
The club "provides countless opportunities" for its youth members to complete each award level, it said in a recent social media post.
"Our Umina youth members were recently supported on their two night and three day 55km trek for their adventurous journey.
"It's always a highlight to spend a few days accomplishing a challenging trek with your surf club mates.
"The Duke of Edinburgh Award is a leadership and youth development program, empowering young Australians aged 14-24 to explore their full potential and find their purpose, passion and place in the world.
"As an internationally recognised award, it looks great for employers and can even give you bonus ATAR points with some universities."
