Evening Rockcraft Workshop (REW26C)
2026-02-04 18:45 - 20:30 (Australia/Sydney) | Lindfield Rocks, Lindfield Rocks, Tryon Rd, East Lindfield, NSW, 2070, Australia
Monthly Rockcraft Skills workshop – open to anyone who has attended a TP/AG (Rigging & Rescue) course, or Guides maintaining currency. Current Qual not required. This is a self driven workshop where we will cover what you need to work on toward your quals, or what you want to practise/review.

A great way to build your skills towards guide (or your OAS levels). Rescue workshops are also one of the ways you can demonstrate your rescue currency which is required for all guides, and especially if you are going through requal. If you are a current guide this is also a good way to stop your rescue skills getting rusty.

What to Bring
