Every Summer the Club’s Training and Assessment Area conduct
a Bronze Camp (Bronzies) for members aged at least 15 years to gain their
Bronze Medallion – Certificate II Public Safety (Aquatic Rescue) and
a Cadet Camp (Cadets) for members aged at least 13 years to gain their Surf
Rescue Certificate.
Members gaining these awards then participate in Surf Lifesaving
Patrols of the Point Lonsdale Back Beach on a voluntary basis, are required
to assist with the Annual Doorknock collection and with the Rip View Swim
Classic and can elect to participate in Aquatic Sports and other club
social activities. It is a requirement that members who gain their Bronze
or Surf Rescue Certificate participate in regular rostered patrols – this
is not an optional component of Active membership of the Club.
Along with Camp fees, a Patrol Bond is payable by all Bronze Camp
participants - this is returned at the end of the patrol season, if you
fulfil your obligation to attend the minimum number of patrol hours
