I've created this page because I want to make a difference. I'm inspired by the work of Environmental Defenders Office (Qld) Inc. and wanted to support them by raising money as part of my participation in Swim For The Reef 2019. Please help me help them by giving whatever you can using the 'Give Now' button. The more people that know about Environmental Defenders Office (Qld) Inc., the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
Each year now the Wello Pointers team, supported by kayakers and stand-up paddle boarders, swim in Moreton Bay from Wellington Point Reserve beach area to King Is (Yerra-bin), along the western side of the sandbank. It is 1.1km one way. The sandbank is partially made up of coral from an ancient coral reef about 1 kilometre to the east of the bank. Check it out on Google Earth. Moreton Bay is full of coral reefs and we need to protect ALL reefs, for present and future generations.
We plan to swim on Saturday 2 Feb, about 9am, weather permitting. Keep Sunday 3 Feb free also just in case. You will be able to stand up all the way, as it is reasonably shallow water, and walk back to the mainland along the sandbank if you don’t wish to swim both ways. The tide is highest at 2.35metres at about 8:15am on the Saturday. This is a relatively large tide. So at high tide, the sandbank will be covered with water to about waist deep in some places.
Please support us with a donation, encourage your friends to do the same, and even better, come along and join us, swimming or paddling.
I can send you full details - contact Trevor Berrill at tberrill@powerup.com.au
