The SLSS Branch Council convened yesterday evening to bestow Life Membership upon Peter Carney, recognising his exceptional dedication and contributions to SLSS.

In a Surf Life Saving career of over 50 years, Peter has exemplified unwavering commitment and excellence as a Lifesaver, Trainer, Assessor, Facilitator, Surf Sports Official and Leader. His profound impact on all those he has interacted with is undeniable.

Peter Carney’s dedication is nothing short of inspiring, and his elevation to Life Membership of Sydney Branch is very well deserved.
