Christmas Eve Patrol

Hi All Woolamai Members,

Woolamai are seeking expression’s of interest to put on a patrol on Christmas Eve the 24th of December from 1-5pm in-line with what LSV have asked of us.

If any members or lifeguards are available to volunteer their time on this day, the club, LSV and I will be grateful.

This year Christmas Eve falls on a Saturday and so we expect a few beach goers to attend our beach. Christmas Eve is also notorious for drownings so it will good for us to make an effort to put on a patrol. If anyone is available, please get in contact with me via Facebook or mobile and we can put together a patrol. I am appreciative of the fact it is a very busy time of year.

Thank-you, and Merry Christmas!!

Campbell Smart
Director of Lifesaving Services

Dune Works

Phillip Island Nature Parks contractors are carrying out sand clearing works around the Clubhouse between now and Christmas.

During these works please do not walk or park near the machinery.

Please limit your access to the beach to via the ramp and designated tracks and do not enter dunes around Clubhouse.

Sand is being removed from Clubhouse surrounds ahead of proposed works to build a retaining wall and stabilise dunes. It is extremely important that members do not destabilise dunes or their vegetation.

If members of the public are seen walking or playing in the dunes or leaving the track, please politely ask them to return to the designated tracks.

Thanks,

Woolamai Beach Board

There are a range of additional administrative tasks.

The position is Casual with greater workload in summer months and reduced workload throughout winter. You will need your own computer and internet, but the Club will provide a mobile phone for Club matters.

Much of the role involves working independently. and in most cases the hours and location can be worked flexibly.
