Annual biscuit drive

Blackwall Girl Guides have begun their annual Guide Biscuit Drive.

Girl Guide members will be selling a range of biscuits in stalls at Ettalong on May 23 and Umina on May 30.

The biscuit range available is plain, chocolate or choc minis for $3 per pack.

Girl Guides Australia's chief commissioner Ms Lynne Price said the annual biscuit drive was one of the longest running fundraising activities in Australia.

"For over 40 years, as well as having lots of fun with their friends, by selling biscuits Guides have developed leadership and financial skills and confidence in dealing with people," Ms Price said.

"Your local Guides are aiming to raise funds for equipment and hall maintenance."
