PLANNING
With the new season quickly approaching it is time to commence planning for the season and working out the Club priorities. This season we will be running the Club planning day slightly differently with dedicated sessions on the 3 main areas impacting the Club. By running the planning workshops separately, we are hoping that we can focus on key areas and people who are interested in specific topics will be able to attend those sessions. This is your chance to have input in how an area of the club works. The sessions will be scheduled based on peoples preference and availability - as much as we can accommodate.
- Junior Activities - nippers, albatross, surf sports: structure of nippers days and season dates, special activities for the season, Camp Alva, nippers and albatross nippers calendars, grants and funding requirements, target carnivals for the club and types of events
This session will be chaired by: Alecia Malouf and Ross Armstrong
Who should attend: age managers, coaches, parents of nippers who want to be more involved, water safety - Lifesaving and Education: competencies, requirements, gear review, patrol groups - grant and funding requirements
This session will be chaired by: Andrew Malouf and Damo
Who should attend: patrol captains, patrollers, - Financial & Strategic Planning: planning for next 12 months, then medium and long term, club priorities for grants and capital expenditure
This session will be chaired by: Cynthia
Who should attend: management committee, anyone who would like to know more and be involved with planning
Please respond at: https://www.surveyhero.com/c/x3yzxevc
We will send out a meeting invite when we get responses back from members.
It was a great privilege to be elected the Club's New President on Sunday. Please feel free to contact me or the relevant Director if you have questions or enquiries. Enjoy a great season, see you on the beach.

The Club runs the Meat Tray Raffle every second Friday night and the Goose at the Northern Beaches Bowls Club. These raffles are perfect for the kids to be involved with - practical maths and communication skills!
If every family takes one slot it makes for an easy and quick fundraiser for the Club. We make on average $200 each time we run a meat tray at the Club and the Goose at Northern Beaches Bowls Club can be more lucrative!
Patrollers Shirts Are Here!
They can be collected Friday evening at Pub Night - your name will be written on the tag based on ordered size.
Thank-you to John and Gaye Galea from the Johnny Farming Company for Sponsoring these shirts
