Manly Life Saving Club

9:46 pm News


The Manly Beach Life Savers Club (MLSC) is a private volunteer organization whose noblest motive is to ensure that Manly Beach in NSW Australia is a safe place to swim by preventing the loss of life in its beach.

 

Much like MCFRVI, MLSC is staffed by private individuals, mostly in their youth serving as Lifeguards in their free time.  In conjunction with the council (paid) lifeguards, they patrol Manly Beach out of their own volition for free. 

 

MCFRVI Deputy Chief Triton Charlie was fortunate to have MLSC volunteers on duty in the afternoon of 21 February 2010 as he was “pre-emptively” rescued when strong waves caused him to drift to a dangerous part of the beach during a surge of huge waves reaching at least five feet.

 

It is with great gratitude that volunteers are found all over the world, at any time and place.

 

As the saying goes, “Volunteers are not worthless because they are not paid.  They are priceless”.

 

Kudos to the Manly Beach Life Savers Club!!!  Keep up the good work!!!
