We have tried numerous processes over the years for ensuring that members who do water safety at carnivals have their contributions added to their record in Surfguard. No system has been perfect so let's try a new idea.

If you do water safety at a carnival please send an email by the Friday after the carnival to carnivals@mentonelsc.com with the details of your duty eg. Bill Smith JanJuc carnival 10/12/2023 water safety 2 hours or IRBC 4 hours and so on. 

It is your responsibility to check that the hours have been added (allow the admins a few days) and follow up if there's an issue. 

It is also your responsibility to send that information through to us by the Friday after the carnival. 

WNOW is helping men feel comfortable in their own skin by becoming better people; better fathers, partners, sons, brothers, and mates.

It starts with you, it starts with us, it starts when no one’s watching.

What we do is simple but effective. We meet at 6am at the grassy area next to the sheds, do a simple workout / mindful movement, share stories, have a dip in the ocean, and most importantly have a coffee and connect with one another. We create a safe, non-judgmental environment where everyone is welcome regardless. https://www.wnow.com.au/sunriseclub
