This year GLUG hosted a film night at Club Forster, featuring GLUG footage of the local area and the documentary "Byron Underwater". The evening was well attended and enjoyed by all.
"Oceans of Life: choose your favourite; protect your favourite" was the theme for WOD 2010. In keeping with the theme, GLUG also ran a small competition at Forster Library, for local people to choose their favorite local marine animal, as photographed by GLUG members. Voters were asked to select from the following animals: neon damsel, strawberry cod, blue groper, grey nurse shark, ornate wobbegong, loggerhead turtle, green turtle, giant cuttlefish, red rock cod, common stingaree, pineapple fish. The competition was very close, with the green turtle just pipping the others at the post. Equal second was awarded to the grey nurse shark, loggerhead turtle and ornate wobbegong.
A snorkel and mask set, courtesy of Action Divers, was won by Forster resident, Paul Parton.
The green turtle will now be developed into our mascot.
