As National Volunteer Week comes to a close, we want to say a heartfelt thank you to every member, volunteer and local who gives their time to Wonthaggi Life Saving Club and our wider community.

From patrollers, trainers, age managers, water safety, kiosk volunteers, BBQ helpers, committee members and those working behind the scenes, your time, energy and commitment are what make our club possible.

This week is also about recognising the incredible volunteers across schools, sporting clubs, emergency services, community groups and local organisations who help keep our town connected, supported and thriving.

Volunteers are the heart of communities like ours. The people who show up, lend a hand and make a difference without asking for anything in return.

To every volunteer, thank you. Our community is stronger because of you.

Thank you for being the difference.

Today we’re recognising the incredible volunteers who keep our kiosk running.

From behind the scenes prep and stocking to making coffees, serving members and visitors, and keeping things moving on busy beach days, our kiosk volunteers play a huge role in Wonthaggi Life Saving Club.

The kiosk is more than just coffee and treats. It’s a place where our community connects, catches up and comes together, while also helping support our club programs and activities.

Thank you for the early starts, hard work, friendly smiles and everything you do behind the scenes.

Today we recognise and thank our incredible patrol volunteers.

Throughout the summer season, our patrollers have dedicated hundreds of volunteer hours to keeping our beaches safe for everyone in the community. Rain, wind or sunshine, they give up their weekends and time with family to help protect others along our coastline.

From first aid responses and preventative actions to water rescues and public education, our patrol members are always ready to step up when needed most. Their commitment, teamwork and dedication play a vital role in saving lives and creating a safe environment for all beachgoers.

Thank you to every patroller at Wonthaggi Life Saving Club for your ongoing commitment, service and support throughout the season. Your efforts never go unnoticed.
