We will remember them.

Surf Life Saving last week lost a legend...Darrell Eastlake. Darrell was a local legend and fierce SLS advocate. Darrell was a much loved and devoted member of Wamberal Surf Life Saving Club where he was a patrolling member and Boat Captain for a number of years, instumental in gaining the clubs first major sponsorship from "Village Theatre" for one of his greatest passions - Surf Boat Rowing and Sweeping. Larger than Life and with a voice even bigger, Darrell was incredibly passionate in advocating Surf Life Saving. In his role as the Sports Exec at radio 2GO, he would promote Surf Life Saving at every possible opportunity and upon taking on the role of Commentator for the Australian Surf Life Saving Titles, brought a whole new dimension of enthusiasm and passion to the organisation especially in Surf Sports...and who can forget his signature quote......it's huuuuuge! The coast has lost a legend but his voice and exceptional character will forever be etched in our memories. On behalf of everyone at Wamberal SLSC our deepest condolences to the Eastlake family.
A.P
Darrell’s funeral is on Friday 27/4/18 at Greenways Chapel, Avoca Drive Greenpoint at 2pm.

Hi fellow cubbies A fundraising swim from Ocean Beach to Station Beach (near Palm Beach - 7.5km approx) is being undertaken to raise funds for David Isaacs family. David suffered a sudden cardiac arrest and could not be revived while swimming at Ocean Beach. It’s been a tough time for his family and for our club. The swim team has lifesavers from OB, Umina and Terrigal SLSC. You can join us to help Dave’s family by donating through the My Cause site and sharing the link.
Yesterday Wamberal SLSC hosted 25 ladies from Western Sydney. These ladies were all originally refugees from Africa, the Middle East and the Pacific. The Surf Club showed ladies IRB and board rescues, how to spot rips and the importance of swimming between the flags. All the ladies were extremely grateful and left with an understanding of the great work we all do.
Thank you to all the members of the surf club who helped in the day. Thanks also to Shamus and Terrigal Wamberal Lions Club for thier effort.
