Tama at the Aussies
Congratulations Margaret Simpson-Lee, who once again, waved the flag for Tamarama at the Aussies 2018! Margie managed to get points for Tama at 2 events! In a very tough field, but snagged 5th in the surf race and 5th in the flags! She nearly got 4th in the flags but lost it when a competitor dived over the top - after 20 rounds! Competition is fun and excellent to improve your skills and team building. Sign up for training and competition in 2018/2019. :)

Murals celebrate equality on the club!
The painting was designed by local artists and lifesavers who feel strongly about marriage equality. We hope you enjoy and love the paintings as a celebration of love, freedom and equality as much as we do! The ocean doesn't discriminate and neither does Tamarama!
Join Tamarama SLSC on Sunday 8 Nov as we celebrate the Rainbow Walk for Equality.
The painting is only temporary. The view we all know and love will return to normal in a few weeks.
We've included a statement below from the club.

Vale Kirsty Boden
Our club members are in shock to learn that one of our much loved lifesavers – has lost her life after the London Bridge attack.
Kirsty Boden was a fearless, compassionate, much-loved lifesaver at Tamarama and the club and community is deeply shaken by this tragic loss. Our thoughts are with her family at this time.
Tamarama Surf Life Savers paddled out sunflowers in memory of clubbie Kirsty Boden, on Saturday 15 July 2017.
