POINT Lonsdale Surf Life Saving Club has received a funding injection of $2,500 from Barwon Water for a new beach sun shelter.<\/p>\n
The beach shelter was obtained through Barwon Water\u2019s surf lifesaving sponsorship program, which has contributed $100,000 towards local surf lifesaving clubs across the region since 2006.<\/p>\n
Barwon Water provides a $2,500 grant to regional clubs on a rotational basis for essential equipment, and Point Lonsdale was one of four clubs offered a grant this year, with Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads, and Bancoora also eligible.<\/p>\n
PLSLSC captain Charlie Pitney said the funds had been put to good use.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe new sun shelter has already been great value to us this summer, and we hope to get much more use out of it throughout the year.\u201d<\/p>\n
Barwon Water general manager of customers and community Jo Murdoch said Barwon Water was proud of its long association with the region\u2019s surf lifesaving movement.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur surf lifesaving clubs are a vital part of our community, helping visitors to local beaches have a safe and enjoyable experience.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Barwon Water, we are very pleased to be able to help them through our community sponsorship program.\u201d<\/p>\n
Looking forward to 2018\/19, Anglesea, Fairhaven, Jan Juc and Torquay Surf Life Saving Clubs are set to receive $2,500 each for new equipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
