West Lakes Rotary are hosting Carols by the Lake on Sunday 6 December from 5pm to 7pm.
Semaphore SLSC have been asked to help with the set up and pull down of infrastructure for the event.
Rotary is a great supporter of the Semaphore SLSC and this is a great opportunity to give something back to them.
Help is needed for about 1 – 1.5 hours on the day from 2pm (to set up temporary fencing) and at 7:30pm at the conclusion of the event (to take down the temporary fencing).
If you are able to help please contact pres@semaphoreslsc.com.au or 0459 442 802.

A reminder that due to SA COVID restrictions there will be no club training, proficiencies or face to face education until further notice.
We are hopeful the current restrictions will be eased next week which will allow us to return to all of these activities in some capacity depending on the level of restrictions.
We will continue to provide updates as further information becomes available.

Opening hours
Thursday and Friday – open from 5pm with the bistro serving meals from 6pm to 8pm.

Reminders
Club capacity will be significantly reduced with the reintroduction of the 4/m2 rule;
No standing consumption of alcohol (both inside and outside); and
All members and non-members must sign in on entry and exit.
As highlighted in the last update, Government direction can change quickly and dramatically. Accordingly, we will soon be returning to similar restrictions that were in place before Thursday’s COVID lock down.
So, to reinforce where we are as a Club effective midnight Saturday 21 November 2020 until advised otherwise:
Sport and Education
Club gym will remain closed (this will be reviewed early next week);
Change rooms and showers are closed (other than essential toilet use);
All training activities are suspended with no Club equipment to be removed from the Club for personal use;
Carnival events scheduled for remainder of November 2020 will not go ahead as planned; and
Face to face proficiencies and training activities (i.e. Bronze Course) are postponed.
Bar and Bistro next week will continue to trade however:
Bistro will take place Thursday and Friday nights with bookings essential and a 10 person maximum per booking in place;
Club hours will change on Saturday 28 November 2020 (4pm to 8pm);
Club capacity will be significantly reduced with the reintroduction of the 4m2 rule;
No standing consumption of alcohol (inside and outside);
Seated dining only; and
All members and non-members must sign in on entry and on exit
For further clarity, this weekend as the lock down remains in place on Saturday the bar will not be open and no training will occur. The bar will however be open from 4pm Sunday 22 November 2020 under the rules highlighted above.
In the interest of public safety, roving patrols with reduced numbers have been authorised for Saturday and will occur as roving patrols only for all future patrols until advised otherwise. Club Captain Andrew Edwards will coordinate this with individuals as required.
Further targeted information will be provided through our social media, website and text/email facilities to keep you updated. For further SA Government Restrictions information https://www.covid-19.sa.gov.au/recovery

We are sure by now you would all be across the latest announcement from the State Government putting in place a 6-day state lock down followed by a further 8 days (14 days in total) of lesser restrictions.
As this is the case no Club activities (training, education, patrolling, commercial operations etc) will occur nor shall anyone be permitted to visit or enter the Club from midnight tonight until the lock down ends. Surf Life Saving SA has reinforced this position to all Club’s this afternoon.
As is the case with COVID Government directions they can change quickly and dramatically, and we will continue to monitor the situation and provide you with updates as we can. This will include when the lock down ends and lesser restrictions are put in place and what they mean for our Club operations.
As always and particularly for the next 6 days, stay safe, follow the restrictions, and check in on each other within the rules.
Applications are now open for appropriately qualified persons to be considered for the position of Professional Lifeguard with the Australian Lifeguard Service (ALS) SA.
This is great opportunity to guard the metro and regional beaches of South Australia.
