Surf Rescue Challenge 2017




Since it's Summer here now - started 1st December I decided to walk a little further than I normally go. Instead of walking part way down the beach I walked to the very end and saw the beginnings of the International Surf Rescue Challenge for 2017 in the midst of being set up.

This event goes for 3 days, it's held every 2 years, there are 8 national open teams and and 4 youth national teams from NZ, Australia, England, South Africa, USA, Canada, France and Japan.

What an interesting competition -- calls attention to what must be some great and needed rescue work as well as I'm sure being fun for the participants and audience. I too would love to see pictures of the event.

Happy Summer!!!
