Club Captains Report
Whangarei Heads Club Champs 2008-2009 - Friday 2nd
January 2009
It started off as a beautiful sunny Ocean Beach patrol day, with small rolling surf, clear skies, and plenty of people enjoying themselves on the beach. Those peoples quiet enjoyment of the beach was short lived however, as a horde of keen Whangarei Heads lifeguards clad in their best speedos and togs, descended onto the beach to battle it out for the prestigious title of Club Champ. This season saw another increase in competitors from last year, with a good spread of abilities. The senior men title in particular is becoming more and more challenging, with a number of members turning 18 and now ranking among the rest of the seniors. The results for the day were:-

Hi everyone,
With the start of the patrolling
season fast approaching, it has been identified that we
haven't yet had our club prize giving.
So, to remedy this situation, we
have scheduled our annual prizegiving for the same day as
the first day of patrol, meaning we can now celebrate the
achievement of our club members from last season, and have a
social get together of all members for the start of the new
season. Details as follows:-
Date - Saturday
25th October 2008
Time - 6pm
(approximately)
Venue -
Whangarei Heads VSLSP
Food - BBQ
dinner provided
Drinks - BYO
only
Who's Invited -
All current club members and their families, and all junior
surf members and their families + club sponsors and
supporters.
RSVP - To
Lindsay no later than Friday 17th October (for catering
purposes)
In addition to the presentation
of the awards to club members, attendees to the prizegiving
can expect to be entertained with a presentation by Hayden &
Ellie on their experience at the Junior Leadership
Development Camp, plus a brief rundown by Lindsay (and
potential photo show) of his experience in California. We
will hopefully have on site a representative from Fonterra
to present some awards, plus members of the local community
so it'll be a great opportunity for club members to rub
shoulders with those who support us in our operations.
What's needed now
- We need to know who's going to be coming ASAP so that we
can cater appropriately. Email or text Lindsay to confirm
numbers from your family that will be attending. Lindsay is
also looking for volunteers to help with the organisation,
e.g. purchasing BBQ food, making salads etc, running the
BBQ. Any help greatly appreciated.
With luck it will be a nice warm
early summer evening, but if the weather doesn't come to the
party, we'll make some room in the gear shed so we can get
the formalities out of the way where everyone can stay dry.
The prizegiving will be
preceeded by a club committee meeting, so if anyone wants to
get along and find out some of the work your committee goes
through to keep the club running, then you are all welcome
to attend.
If anyone has any questions, or
more importantly if anyone wants to volunteer, please get in
touch.
