Waianakarua, 18 miles south from Oamaru, at the junction of the Otepopo and Waianakarua Rivers (the name “Waianakarua” means “meeting of the waters”) was the scene of the recent Otago Provincial Girl Guide camp. Our pictures, taken while the camp was in progress, give an idea of the jolly open-air life led by the Girl Guides, and show the tents and various aspects of the days’ activities, as well as (top row, right) the commandant, camp adviser, and quarter-masters; (second row, left) the camp officers; and (bottom row, centre) the camp in the French formation of the horseshoe.
