Come along and enjoy the food and drinks. You never know, it could be your lucky night!
With new facilities, it is only fitting that the future direction of the Semaphore Surf Life Saving Club receives some focus. The Board of Management, with the support of it’s committee members, has been working hard to develop a Strategic Action plan and way forward for the Club.
With the slogan “Bringing People Together”, the Club’s purpose, values and objectives have clearly been spelled out and a Strategic Action Plan for the coming months and years ahead has been identified.
See attached documents for more information. A hard copy of both documents is available at the Club.
We look forward to discussing this further in the coming months.
