Our North Star

In 1959 the Sunset Beach Surf Lifesaving Club began protecting swimmers at Sunset Beach, Port Waikato. Read about our history here

As we head towards our 70th anniversary in 2029 the Sunset Beach Lifeguard Service Board and Sunset Beach Surf Lifesaving Charitable Trust would like to gather all club members together to help us create a strategic plan to take us into our 70th year.

This will define the club's direction and help establish achievable objectives and goals that align with the club's vision and mission.

We are calling all current club members to join the Board and Trustees in a strategic planning workshop.
