Guides to walk and picnic
Get your walking shoes on and explore the Ivungu River Conservancy this Saturday (7th). The guiding fraternity celebrates 115 years this year, and to mark this successful milestone the Port Shepstone Teddies, Brownies, Girl Guides and Rangers collectively aim to walk 115km. Bring the family and friends and join the Girl Guides for a walk in nature followed by a picnic. All ages are welcome and the entrance fee is R10 per person. Funds raised go towards the conservancy. On a different note, the teddies and brownies have been 'busy bees' selling biscuits at R30 a packet. There are five different flavours to chose from. The girls are fundraising towards camping equipment. Panda Jolene Evans said the support has been amazing so far, and already the girls have sold more than 500 packets of biscuits. Elliana Olver (Brownie) and Briella Olver (Teddy) aim to sell 100 packets to get their badges. Both agree that the biscuits are delicious with the 'sprinkles' and 'choc chip' flavours being their favourite. If you would like to support the Guides, contact Panda on 072 148 5524.

Help ‘Save a Fishie'
Environmental activist Zoë Prinsloo (23) from Cape Town will be heading to the South Coast's shores for her annual Save a Fishie's Coast 2 Coast 2025 campaign. Zoë, is the not only the founder of Save a Fishie, but she is the world record holder for the longest beach clean-up (27 hours), award-winning and one of the panellists at The Our Oceans Conference in Busan, Korea, recently. This year's countrywide campaign kicked-off on May 17, and will run until July 5. The Save a Fishie team has started in Cape Town to clean the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean. They will then head to the Indian Ocean beaches in KZN, and all the way south, back to Cape Town. This will be Save a Fishie's third Coast 2 Coast and the team will stop to clean a total of 33 beaches. Everyone is encouraged to get involved and help make a difference. 'Whether you're on the West Coast, in KwaZulu-Natal, or the Eastern Cape, there's a stop near you. Let's make waves together for a cleaner, healthier ocean,' said Zoë. Support the campaign and join the Port Shepstone Teddies, Brownies, Girl Guides and Rangers at The Block in Port Shepstone on June 10 at 15:00 or at Oslo Beach on June 11 at 10:00. Come and help Zoë meet her goal of collecting seven tons of litter.
