ASLC Welcomes New Patrol Members!

The Ayr Surf Club has received a much-needed boost to their patrolling ranks at the end of 2024, thanks to the efforts of trainer John Moloney and Assessors James Kennedy and Matt Stone.

The Club has recently welcomed six new Bronze Medallion members; Dave & Kathryn Sartori, Richard Dale, Emma Parker, Jane Olsen and Will Holt, and six new Surf Rescue Certificate members; Gabriel and Jan Hatherell, Zachary Dale, Parker Bonato, Shaize Christie and Emma Jones into the red and yellow family. These members have joined the current serving members to help keep community members safe at Alva Beach.

Patrolling season runs from September school holidays through to May Day weekend, including Saturday afternoons, all day Sunday and public holidays. The Club wishes to remind the Burdekin community that it is currently Marine Stinger Season (November to May) and it is highly recommended to always wear protective clothing and seek advice from lifesavers.
