North Cronulla awarded Branch Rescue of the Month February 2019

Congratulations to North Cronulla SLSC and in particular Patrol Team 7 and Sutherland Lifeguards who with the support of other services performed a mass rescue after a sandbank collapsed on Sunday 17 February involving over 50 people rescued.  This outstanding multiple rescue was conducted over an approximate time period of approximately 15 minutes.  Due to the actions on the day of the Patrol, thankfully all rescued people were returned to their families on this day.  Congratulations to all involved on an outstanding display of lifesaving skills and in turn a reflection of why Surf Clubs exist to keep the community safe. 

The Branch also wishes to acknowledge the nominations from Wanda, Coogee and Bondi Clubs who also conducted outstanding rescues during the month of February.  Congratulations to all your members involved.
