Member of the Month - November 2023
Published: November 30, 2023 Last Updated: November 30, 2023
She’s only been with us for a short time, having joined us late 2020-2021 season, but Di has gone above and beyond to contribute to the Club. Along with her calming presence as an avid First Aid patroller, keen observing eye and responding to many rescues on the beach, she has also naturally joined the training team - where she has easily adapted her nursing background experience to deliver multiple Emergency Training Courses.
Oh and did we mention her keen Ping Pong Skills?! As our member officer says:
“Don’t be fooled by that sweet exterior, underneath lays a competitive beast
Just grab a ping pong bat and get on the other end of the table from Di and you will know what I mean”

Support Coolum Surf Club
Not ready to become part of Coolum Surf Club but still want to help?
It takes a lot of money to run a surf lifesaving club; from the equipment needed on the beach (vehicles, boards, IRBs, first aid kits, defibrillators etc) to administration and training to facilitate patrolling.
So if you can't join us, support us through one of the following options.
Coolum Beach SLSC Nippers
Does your child want to become a Nipper?
Looking for a fun summer sport where your kids will learn essential surf safety skills, gain confidence in the ocean, and meet new friends?
Coolum Nippers is the answer! Nippers run from the September school holidays to February/March and is open to kids from 5 to 12 yrs.
Not only will they learn surf safety and what surf lifesaving is all about, but also have the opportunity to compete in carnivals and have mid-week training to improve their skills.
