Congratulations to last year’s SRCs! You are now active members. If you are 14 and therefore can’t do your Bronze this year, you are requested to participate in the Gap Year program.
- Gap Year is a great opportunity to “give back” for all the years of Nipper and SRC training provided to you. The gap year group provides Water Safety for the Nippers Summer Intensive. Additional opportunities include: Board Skills group and specialty leadership roles for Nippers program.
- Lorne SLSC is very proud of its youth members and encourages youth leadership. Responsibility Friendship & Fun. Our Lorne Youth have Gap Year 24/25, Bronze Medallion Camp 25/26 and Silver Medallion Camp 26/27 Season to look forward to as well as leadership and competition team opportunities and becoming part of a Patrol team.
- Note as active members of Lorne SLSC, SRCs are junior Patrolling members of Lorne SLSC and each year must complete “skills maintenance” or “requal” which is a short online refresher and then a practical session including a run/swim/run. Also all Active Members must have their own surf lifesaving login. You can log into your own member profile and check that your award is current. Without a current award you cannot use club boards, cannot patrol, provide water safety etc. You are covered under family membership while a full time student. Or you can have an individual membership.
