2021 CELEBRATING OUR WATERBASED LIFESTYLE
TRAINING OVER LABOUR WEEKEND.
Lifeguards ready for summer start at Riversdale Riversdale Beach’s surf lifeguards will be back in action this summer, with a great new intake training to be lifeguards for the upcoming summer.
Watch out for rips!
Weekend patrols will start on Saturday 4th December from noon to 5.00pm.
Rips are a major reason for rescues and anyone who gets caught in a rip should remember and practise the 3Rs to give them the best chance of getting to safety.
The club will patrol Christmas Day 25 December from noon to 5pm, then daily patrols until Sunday 31 January from 9.30am to 5.30pm at both North and South ends. The Nipper carnival is on Sunday 23 January. Weekend patrols will resume after this from noon to 5.00pm until 6 March when the club closes down until Easter when it will do the last patrols for the season from noon to 5.00pm. Information on Nippers can be found on the web at www.riversdalesurf.org.nz then click on nippers.
Relax and ˜ oat to conserve your energy. Raise your hand to signal for help. Ride the rip until you can swim safely back to shore or help arrives. This year’s message is to “Save the Males” as research shows 89% of drownings are males. Don’t take the environment for granted, get ÿ t, read the waves. Dwayne Johnson “The Rock” is to spearhead this #SaveTheMales.
