Patrol Update – November

Hi all,

Patrols have been running for just over a month and last weekend marked the completion of each groups first patrol! We just wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their contribution!

We have seen a massive increase in numbers in all patrol groups, with 98% of rostered members attending their patrols, or finding a suitable fill in. Each patrol has had at least 10 members attend which is a massive improvement on previous seasons. We have also seen the return of many old faces back into the patrol area which is fantastic.

We understand that the changes that were made this season were quite significant but we thank everyone for cooperating with such a positive attitude!

We would also like to thank our team of Patrol Captains and Vice Captains who have contributed significantly in lifting morale in the patrol area.

So far there are no major incidents or rescues to report but we will continue to update you throughout the season.

We are now entering the busier months of the patrolling period, with additional school patrol dates coming up so we will be looking for voluteers to help us out on these days with some rather large school groups.

Semaphore SLSC were already a strong club in terms of patrol but this season sees us take things to a whole new level. So well done team!

Thanks,

Alex Reid and Georgia Robbins

Club Captain and Vice Captain
