URUNGA SLSC NEWS 23 Jan 2012
Congratulations to our own Garry Howe who has been nominated for the 2012 Bellinger Shire Australia Day Citizen of the Year Award. Garry works very hard for our club and deserves this nomination. It would be great if members could support him by attending the Ceremony, which will be held at the Urunga Primary School on Australia Day.
PATROLS – Please take a look at the website Patrol Roster as there have been changes made to our current roster (again). Apologies to those people who have been
inconvenienced and we will look at sending our current roster person off for intensive
roster training next season.

NIPPERS – Normal Nippers at Hungry Head this weekend. Don’t forget that skull caps are compulsory while participating at Nippers. We suggest that you write your
child’s name in their cap as they do get left behind at times.
TRAINING – Board training will be held on Tuesday at 4.30pm and Saturday at 2pm. All welcome. Bronze squad should be at the beach by 9am on Sunday. IRB squad will be contacted by Garry. We also highly recommend that you get yourself to North Beach at 4pm on Friday 27th as Scott McCartney will be running a training clinic and it will be open to all members from Urunga, Scotts Head, North Beach and Nambucca SLSC clubs. There will be a BBQ afterwards. Scott is the NSW Interbranch coach so this will be a training session not to miss. All ages and all abilities welcome.
The Officials Course will be held at 9am on Saturday 4th February at Sawtell SLSC. Any enquiries to Garry on ph: 66551449.
