Nipper Christmas Breakup Fun Day

Christmas is nearly here and instead of normal training this Saturday we are having a club fun day!

Please meet as normal at 12:45pm on the grass area.

Kids will be allocated to teams made up of a mix of all the age groups. Teams will then take each other on in a series of fun events on the beach.

Everyone is invited to the boat shed below the club rooms after events wrap up, where each Nipper will get a free BBQ, ice block and drink. The BBQ is also available to parents and siblings with a gold coin donation.

In true Semaphore SLSC tradition, we will also be having a special visit from Santa and his helpers, who will be visiting the patrol shed after the BBQ. Each age group and their younger siblings will visit the patrol shed to meet Santa and receive a small gift (lolly bag).

Kids should remember to keep an eye on the water though out the day. Water cover get into the spirit of the day, dressing up in costumes…kids might spot a friendly elf or cheeky pirate out on the water!

Bar facilities are available both upstairs and downstairs, so we will have plenty of room to spread out.

Volunteers will be needed to make sure the day runs smoothly. Any help will be much appreciated.

We look forward to celebrating the season thus far, and wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

Surf Club Mural Complete

After months of planning, design and a week of painting, our Surf Club mural on the beachside of the patrol shed is finally complete!

With financial assistance from the Charles Sturt Council through a Place Maker Grant and the skill of our artists Adam and Corey from Cold Krush we can now show everyone who comes past our Surf Club what we are about as a club and how we fit in with our local community.

Thanks to everybody who helped with the design ideas, we think we have captured the spirit of the Semaphore Surf Life Saving Club well and have created something special for all to enjoy.

Uniform shop open this Saturday from 12pm to 1pm.

WHAT PARENTS NEED TO KNOW.

Surf SA wishes us to remind you of your required compliance with thier COVID Safe or COVID Management plan (pending the SA Health decision). As such if you do not wish to comply, you should not attend.

Assigned COVID Marshals are volunteer parents just like you & any abuse will not be tolerated.

Parents should bring their own shade (such as big hat or umbrella) – it is not ok for you to enter the field of play to use the Club tents as this puts us in breach with SAPOL.

There may be a restriction on number of parent/carers pending outcome of COVID Management plan application.

Unlike last time where a ticket was required for spectators to attend, Surf SA will be supplying wristbands to each club based on the number of competitors. They have put this in place to properly enforce the 1 spectator per competitor allowance. AND ALL attendees will need to complete the COVID-SAfe check in process using the events QR code
