Open Water Camp 2015

Calling all lifesavers! Last chance to sign up!The deadline for signing up to Sheffield LSC's very own Open Water Camp 2015 has now been extended!

Open Water will be a completely new experience for many of our Young Lifesavers, but is both fun and exciting, and there are many new skills to be gained from Open Water training.

We have only a few places left to fill, so if you might be interested in learning new skills, getting to know fellow club members better, and having fun - bring a deposit of £20 in a named, sealed envelope before the May half term break (so you only have tomorrow 13th May and next week 20th May!).

The camp is running from 24th-27th August in the Lake District.

If you have any concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch!

Click here to read the SLSC Open Water Camp letter!

Do you like bacon?

If you answered yes, we can help!We can provide you with the perfect bacon sandwich on a Sunday morning, and you'll be helping the club at the same time!
To claim your perfect bacon sandwich (or sausage sandwich if you would prefer), just email Tamsin to let her know which dates you are available to help us!

Dates are the second Sunday of each month, June-September inclusive:

  • Sunday 14th June
  • Sunday 12th July
  • Sunday 9th August
  • Sunday 13th September
You can contact Tamsin by email: tamsin@sheffieldlifesavingclub.org.uk 

Terms & Conditions:
To be eligable for your free bacon or sausage sandwich, participants must be willing to give up a morning to help facilitate SLSC's Car Boot for fundraising purposes. Willing volunteers must report to Wisewood Sports Centre for 7.30am and are required to: unlock gates, wear highly fashionable hi-vis jackets, collect money from participating boot's of cars, hold paddle boards to guide cars into appropriate sized spaces whilst looking like a professional aircraft marshal, stand in the sunshine whilst enjoying light-hearted chit chat, and consuming the perfect bacon sandwich with a well earned cuppa, before finishing up at around 11am.

On one final serious note - we really need some more volunteers to help us run this car boot. It is the Club's biggest fundraiser and brings in a lot of money for not a lot of work. If you can spare any time at all on any of these dates, please let Tamsin know ASAP as the Club committee can't run this alone.

It's all gone quiet for helpers at the Car Boot Sales

5/4/2014

0 Comments

 
Since the email and news article on 15/3 we've regrettably not had a single reply as yet. 

The Car Boots are THE key way in which we raise funds for the club.  

Your help on a few Sunday mornings to setup at the start or put away at the end, OR both would be very very welcome. 

Please check you diaries and let us know which Sundays work for you.  

Thank You.

CAN YOU PLEASE HELPĀ AT THE CAR BOOT SALES?

15/3/2014

0 Comments

 
For privacy reasons this has been blind-copied (bcc:) to parents & members. 

Dear Parents/Carers/Members, 

If this is to a members email address can you please print it off and pass it on to your parents.  Thanks.

Here are a list of possible Sundays on which we could run a Car Boot.  

As covered in March'14 Newsletter (+ recent cascades), this is THE major income source for the club and enables us to keep subscriptions, membership, our exchanges to and from Holland, and club events at their current level.  

Note - we're ONLY expecting to run 1 (possible 2 max) Sunday each month.  In July and September we are currently contemplating 2 sales in those months. 
  

Your support on a Sunday morning(s) would be very much appreciated.  At the moment the only "usual crew" will be ...Diane, Jamie and myself.  With Jake (up to July).  We can't run the sales in 2014 with so few of us.
    
We usually start to set up (eg. marking out the parking area, street cones) at about 06:45 and most of the cars/vans have left the field by noon.  Alternatively if you can help setup in the morning and/or pack-away at around 11:30 that would be great also.  

Please just put either YES or NO and the number of helpers alongside these dates.  
I've just put one entry against 18th May as an example. 

May   4 -  11 -  18 - yes/no (2)   25 - 
June   1 -   8 -  15 -  22 -  29 - 
July    6 -  13 -  20 -  27 - 
August   3 -  10 -  17 -  24 -  31 - 
Sept    7 -  14 -  21 -  28 - 

Can you please get back to us ASAP.  


Diane & I will collate the feedback to determine the viable dates, get back to everybody and then she has to book/register/pay for those dates with the Sheffield Council Markets Dept. 

Thanks again, 

Chris Ledger

  • Please leave them with me on a club night. 



SLSC Polo Shirts for the competition
  • If you don't already have a polo-shirt then we always stress to our members that they are ambassadors for the club on competition day in their tops.

3/7/2013

Email from Diane....

Hi everyone

As one of our fundraising ventures we have a stall at Stannington carnival each year where we do a tombola and other things to raise money for the Club.

So we would like all of you to have a look and see if you have any unwanted gifts/bottles of booze/other suitable items that we could use as tombola prizes.

We need these things ASAP please so if you could bring them to Hillsborough LC on Wednesday 3rd July that would be really helpful as I am away the following week. If you can’t get them there until the 10th that will be ok and someone will collect them from Chris .

The Carnival is on 13th July so we really need any items you may have ASAP please

Thanks very much
