Welcome from the President - David Young

Welcome all members to the 2011 surf season. I hope everyone had a good break during the off season as its going to be an exciting and busy year with the calender full of carnivals and surf lifesaving award training. Ellis Beach Surf Club has something for everyone in which to participate.

I have the pleasure to be working with an incredibly committed and energetic committee. We are prepared to volunteer many hours to ensure Ellis Beach Surf Club delivers a high standard of Lifesaving and well trained surf sports competitors. We will endeavour to cater for all members who are serious competitors or wish to maintain a level of fitness and improve their life saving skills.

We will strive to provide an environment where members can enjoy themselves and have fun while developing their skills. This will be acheived by participating in Sunday training and obtaining individual life saving awards.

This is our commitment to the club and its members. However, a club does not function on the committee alone. We need people to assist in a number of areas during Sunday club days and at Carnivals. There are a number of roles parents and members can help including the kitchen, water safety, carnival official, setting up the beach, loading gear trailers for carnivals, cleaning and storing club gear. This will ensure Ellis Beach Surf Club remains a vibrant and progressive surf club.

Should anyone wish to enquire as to where and how they can assist please seek out one of the committee members – they’ll be more than willing to discuss any number of options.

I hope everyone enjoys the 2011 season and remember,

Life’s a Beach
