Life Savers Praised by Mrs Claus - 21/12/03

Rookie Life Savers from Illawarra Clubs escorted Santa onto Stage at the recent Illawarra Mercury, Blue Scope Steel & McDonald's Christmas Carol Spectacular at City Beach. Mrs Claus commended Surf Life Savers in the Illawarra for the excellent job they do in preventing loss of life to beach goers.

Escorting Santa & Mrs Claus on stage has the added benefit of a good yarn with Amity Dry after her on stage Christmas Carol performance.

Our young lifesavers found a friend with Natalie Bassingthwaigthe (Isi) from Neighbours who was very admiring of their participation in Surf Life Saving.
