Ocean Grove and Point Lonsdale Surf Life Saving Clubs will band together in pink on the weekend to celebrate female leadership in lifesaving.
Pink Patrols are a club-led initiative that aims to acknowledge and celebrate the many contributions women past and present have played in lifesaving, and showcase operational and leadership capabilities of women and girls.
This year for the first time, Pink Patrols will be held at lifesaving clubs and aquatic facilities across the state, with 36 host clubs and 16 aquatic facilities taking part in a coordinated Pink Patrol on 19 February.
Point Lonsdale SLSC’s Jessica Robinson said that the initiative is all about
acknowledging everyone’s achievements and the progression in lifesaving.
“Pink Patrol is a celebration of how far women have come, what opportunities can unfold, how powerful we are as a collective,” she said.
